Both she and Green have had powerful tabletop scenes in Penny Dreadful.

UnReal did have a female gay contender last season and handled the crisis being on the show posed for her very well.

The battle of the bastards should be next week, but
Jon and Sansa still have no army.

It makes me think Martin had no important role for LSH in his end game.

Book Beric gave up his immortality for Cat. His appearance in this episode can't be to set her up, unless the rules have been changed for tv.

The Mountain's breast plate already had the mark of the faith militant's weapon before the encounter. Too many rehearsals?

His choice, to strike a deal with a radical religious group, mirrors his sister's action in King's Landing. Hopefully with better results.

The young boy, Lord Grey, gets some novellas featuring him.

Jaime and Cersie die together, as they were born.

Does taking a face make a short girl taller and muscular?

Ramsay will be back next season.

And because the mad king burned Bran's grandfather.

I think we'll rejoin Arya as she delights the candle she blew out at the end of this episode, revealing the dead body of the Waif. She then departs for Westeros with Needle.

New fashionable hairdo.

Except as blind stick fighter.

She has a new hair style. One very popular among Bravosi chicks

Coldhands in the books is encountered at the other end of Bran's journey, as he and his party are going to the three eyed crow. He rides a giant elk, I think. Sam Tarly also encountered Bran then also, and now I can't recall if he ever told John that Bran was alive.

Book Aerys burned people in his throne room. I assumed it was a flash back to one of those moments.

I loved the way she prepared with needle, blowing out the candle to await the Waif.

If Lady S appears, Beric can't. He had to give up being brought back again so Lady S could.
