I nearly called you in a rage last night! The bitch was literally skipping through town!

like its really the only explanation that makes sense. in one scene, arya is holed up like a rat in a tunnel because she knows whats waiting for her out there, the next scene shes making a huge public ordeal about booking passage on a ship, throwing around vast sums of money, and crip walking around downtown braavos.

My brother was hanging out with me last night while I was watching the show. Side note, he does not watch got or read the books at all. He refuses to get into it because it's another time sink to him, which is fine; I get it. But he ends up watching random snippets here and there. He walked in on Jon Snow getting stabbed. I was like wow I am glad you are not into this show at all because that is a massive fucking spolier.

Anyways he watches Arya get stabbed and turns to me like hey, isn't she supposed to be some sort of badass ninja assassin? How did she get caught so unaware? How was it so easy for her to get stabbed? Why did she just jump in the water? Didn't she know those people would be looking for her so they could kill her?

I had no answers

I was going to rewatch before I said anything but I didn't think she had needle on her either.

#CONFIRMED

no needle, hair parted down middle like jaqen, behaves nothing like arya, honestly doesnt even walk like arya... AND although arya is certainly killable, stretching her death out across two episodes is retarded beyond any conceivable rationale and im sorry but she could get taken to cedar sinai with those wounds today and still not make it. her liver and kidney are down for the count, and that last twist opened up her stomach which is now leaking acid and half digested food into her blood.

Funniest guess so far has been that the whole arya/waif routine was a mknightshalaymaned fightclub/mrrobot situation.

I kinda liked the whole last scene with the hound even less than girl not knowing how to lay low. Like wtf he's randomly alone in the woods even though a scene before he acknowledged that there's likely some murder in the way and all he hears is 1 scream when 10 people get slaughtered, the whole camp ransacked and they had time to hang Lovejoy before hound gets back.

Good chance it was Jaqen and it was a test for the other chick. Jaqen said something to her along the lines of make sure Arya Doesn't suffer. Instead, her selfish intent was to make Arya suffer with the stabbed to the stomach.

I guess they just had to write Hound back in on the action. They just kinda half assed it. The end result being slightly more moral Hound. Arya business might get explained/showed in non stupid way and it seems that Margaery didn't get stockholm syndromed but i can totally still see Tommen having been stockholm syndromed by proxy (he's just that fucking stupid).

There is no end game. This just keeps going until it stops printing money.

rum dick: sounds a lot like tommy wiseau claiming he intended for the room to be a comedy all along


or like GRRM deliberately shelving his work on a series of novels so he can test out audience reactions to the show.

Wouldn't the faceless men have had to cut Arya's face off to use it as a disguise?

Or are we talking bout motherfucking shape-shifters here?

I mean, look at Melisandre. Clearly certain characters have unlocked god-mode.

Motherfucking shape-shifters that just enjoy cutting off faces?

I like it.

He also kinda went there before blinding her iirc.

But really this could 100% just be a case of the writers just flat out not giving a fuck about doing the show justice as they desperately clear the board of pieces before the curtain drops.

how totally boring.


if arya's fucking plotline ends with her drinking from the fountain in the temple, im seriously done giving a fuck about this show.

---

My first and only conclusion is that she will be marching in and drinking from the fountain at the temple and will get some kind of super powers.

I wanna believe in a big ass plot twist that is so convoluted that nobody is really going to second guess it. The bad part about that is that it usually ends up with Chuck Norris firing hidden mini rockets off of his motorcycle and blowing up an entire camp of merc's.

I mean I knew that the old lady was a disguise, so how would it not be telegraphed to Arya? But then again, how does someone get Arya's face if it's not already on the wall???

I guess the other thing that bothers me is that it's like the writers are bringing back people just because they were popular characters (the hound), instead of moving forward with this war?

The big question for me is how many episodes is this season anyway? I thought it would be 12, but the arc of this series is feeling more like 14 or 18? Am I nuts to think that?

this season is 10 eps like the previous seasons. The next 2 seasons, tho, might only get 13 eps total.

from what I read, the show writers thought 7 seasons was perfect, and HBO felt like 10 would be better for them, so we end up with 8ish seasons.

God that's horrible then.

you know....


she could just bump into the actress whose like 'oh i owe you my life *healhealheal* come on the road with us' .


because honestly the 'they didnt have her face' issue is really only explainable by somehow engineering a confrontation with the waif who explains how he uses cheat codes AND that her debt was paid and so they are super cool 2000++. and that _could_ happen if arya is like ok fuck this, imma drink fountain death because wow im a fucking 15 year old girl who just got stabbed a lot in the belly and im done, im fucking done.


but the scenario where that event actually propels her arc away from braavos would be her bumping into the one person on earth who has karma with her and can offer her a future; the actress she saved.

I mean when she dove into the water on the bridge I figured that's where she left her sword and was gonna come up with it like the lady of the freaking lake, so I was a little miffed on that. I just don't see how some broke ass actress is gonna be any good as some springboard outta Compton? There's just too much of a long way around for her to just die in the street though, but she's not recovering from that wound without divine intervention - or it just wasn't her.

When she was pulling tons of faces off that one body, wasn't one of them hers? So they would have her face, no?

yeah im really on the fence on this one.

I think we could roll a d20 and not hit it.

did Littlefinger get his own spinoff- cause he is not on this show anymore

They have ignored the fact that Littlefinger has the Arran Knights of the Vail somewhere and Sansa knows it. I thought they would bring it up last episode when they were searching for soldiers.

They did.... Kind of. The note Sansa was writing was to Mayor Carcetti to bring the Knights of the Vail to winterfell and she will give him ass sex.

Next week's episode is called "No One." The 9th, with a 60 minute runtime, will be "The Battle of Bastards", and the longest runtime of any episode yet will be 69 minutes for S06E10, "The Winds of Winter."

Winter is coming soon af.

Episode 9....

FUCKING TERRIBLE.
