Toss in a few cartwheels.

Also a possible allusion to her carrying his child, or even simply that his brutalizing her will always be with her.

Ok but did Sansa KNOW that that would happen, strategically? Good explanation overall but I don't find it believable that Sansa would have sat back and planned that.

I think next week Marge is gonna be blown to bits along with Tommen, the High Sparrow and few hundred others…

This. Is! WINTERFELL!!

Yes!! Give the Wildlings all the Bolton lands!

So who is now Warden of the North? (Can't count Bran b/c no one knows where he is or if he's alive, right?)

I agree but politically, it's sorta like the Starks owe the Vale, so in that sense he would 'force' her. Bad word choice.

I'll probably get slaughtered for saying it, but IMO Martin's dialogue is easily the weakest part of his novels, and one of the things the show writers have in many places improved upon. I do really love the books, but I wince most when we get some purple tin-eared banter with quasi-medievalisms, whereas on the show

But if there's one plausible way to get Jon's goat, it's to murder one of his brothers right in front of him. Plus, Ramsay exploited Jon in the exact way Jon sought to exploit Ramsay earlier in the episode, by making him angry/impulsive.

I don't think he opted not to kill Jon. They got separated. I think because Tormund AmazingBeard insinuated himself on Jon's behalf.

Good call, comparing this battle to Hound v Brienne. Same tone somehow. Felt similarly earnest and ugly.

I'm hoping she'll give us a line or two as to her reasoning next episode.

But if Dany and Co know about it, it wouldn't make much of a trap… I'm guessing they either detonate next episode or not at all.

Does Jon even know anything about Littlefinger at all though?

Tirewolf.

Yeah we don't need that to be more telegraphed than it's been. But maybe we're getting faked out and there won't be any Wildfire explosions next episode.

Quaintfort

Exactly right. I think THAT'S the conflict Sansa was wrestling with in not calling in LF sooner or telling Jon it was an option. Now he's gonna force her to marry Robin so he can puppet rule over both North and Vale.

I did once and I did exactly what Jon did.
