I mean it was PARTIALLY about them.

It was about her seeing that, realizing the things I just said.
In that sense, sureOriginally Posted by 2Bad
empathy, but again, I believe we've seen that (although not with soldiers) in the previous season
We haven't seen what her takeaway is!
Do you really think she'll kill them then?
lots of dead lannisters
In a classic GoT development, one of them will try to rape or rob her. Nymeria jumps out of the woods, rips their throat out.
about the hound's scene with the hut... how much time passed between when he and arya first visited and then
Leave one wolf alive, and the sheep will never be safe
foreshadowing at its finest
Well
it's about dealing with this. The world itself demands that the cynicism once espoused, and perpetuated, by the Hound, be fought back against.
I really hope this doesn't happen.
Spoiler:
The entire point of the scene is it won't
We'll see.
Spoiler:
I hope too but such things have happened before, I've been hurt.
I don't care if the season is good or bad, I'll watch it whatever happens. Sunk costs, pop culture memes, etc. Though this episode was at least pretty promising; there was nothing decidedly bad about it, and I really liked the North scenes.

The episode was pretty meandering but I have four complaints so far:
1) That Arya opener is so fanservicey and I felt nothing because there wasn't enough set up. It was a checkbox. Actually thinking more on the scene, it left a bad taste in my mouth because we're meant to assume that only the Frey men are bad and that all of them deserve to be killed.
2) No one took an empty Dragonstone? Come on.
3) Too much Sam filler. Least interesting character on the show (and even in the books).No more shit montages, please.
4) That Jon-Sansa convo almost worked but then the show emotionally validated Jon by bringing in children. Stacking the deck on Jon's favor was a bad call.
Fuck the Freys, first blood for a season.
Why would anyone take Dragonstone? The Iron Throne has no navy to supply it, it's a pile of rocks with no income. The whole point of the siege of it in the books is that Book Cersei is a TOTAL moron who is wasting resources on taking nothing.
Aside from the shit montage being a great way to get at the people who got their GoT Spreads setup, meeting what I assume was Maester Marwen was neat.
Why, because Sansa was wrong in that instance? Children would be what's left of the house anyway, the whole point of Lyanna is that all this nonsense has been throwing the great houses of Westeros into the meat grinder. It's not as if it said Sansa's points aren't valid, it's saying that always resorting to the harshest possible assumptions and actions, like Tywin, like Cersei, like the old Sandor, isn't always valid. That's echoed in Arya's quiet commiseration with the soldiers, or with Sandor being faced with the consequences of his actions.
Shit montage was the peak of the episode I M O.
