I'm thinking Little Finger is behind Rickon being in Winterfell. He wanted a Stark in Winterfell to give the Vale a reason to attack it and also rally the Northern houses to the cause. His plan with Sansa fell through so he's worked with Umbers to get Rickon in there.

I also thought for a second that it was a bit of foreshadowing when Little Finger said "it's time for the Vale to enter the fray", meaning they were going to attack the Twins (Freys). But not sure about that one.

Dude I initially thought for a second he was talking about the Freys too, and pondered that.

Hopefully he's sincere with his intentions to have the Starks rule the North in Alliance with the Arryns in the Vale.

that's why I can't trust him. He only does things for his gain, and I'm trying to see what he hugely gains out of the Vale helping the Starks re-take Winterfell

I think Little Finger's plans involve a united North, that's what he achieved by f*cking over Ned Stark. But the Freys/Boltons mucked all that up. I reckon he's gunning for the Lannisters.

You see? A little f**king patience pays off


Did you see that they also went a whole episode shout having to show every character and the world didn't end? Mind, the Tyrion stuff is still just s complete boat anchor for the show. Seriously who gives a rats ass about slavers bay?

Hopefully they f**k off Ramsey within 1-2 episodes, and then fold the Greyjoys into one of the other storylines ASAP too (maybe theon and asha offer their fleet to Danerys now that hers is burnt down) so we don't have to pretend to care about that garbage either.

once they do that, the only truly disjointed storyline will be Arya. I simply cannot see an organic way for them to bring her back to Westeros.

I'm guessing a girl will be given a name in Westeros.

Would be funny it was Jon because he robbed the many-faced-god of a life.

I bet anything it will be Jon. It will be the plot that shows Arya's true colours that she has never really gotten rid of.

The show has for ages been building her up as someone who's good at deceiving, it's started all the way back from when she convinced many people she was a boy.

coming back to life?

Also, this was the first time Jon has been referred to as the prince that is promised. Exciting times ahead

and looks like Arya will be given a name of someone that is 'decent'

Who would be paying and what is the price?

I think this was the episode which was most underwhelming so far
And that's saying something cause it was still good!

Osha going - not a surprise

Sansa/Jon - always on cards

Cercei comes up with a plan to overthrow High Sparrows - Nicely done, but not a surprise

Denarys - Not a surprise, well played, very well played but not really a surprise. What else would they have done?

Tyrion - Good to see him working his magic.

Little Finger - Something is sinister is at play here, surely

Also glad they have given Theons character a bigger purpose and direction.
He now has a goal, and something to achieve as opposed to be someones whipping boy.

Hard to say that Sansa and Jon was always on the cards. Usually when two Starks come close to each other something bad happens .
