Arya is going to leave the faceless, one way or another. The only point of her becoming this great warrior/killer/assassin is for her to rejoin her family and be able to help in the wars to come.

I'm aware. I just believe that it wasn't in fact her that got stabbed.

One thing that I find a bit puzzling is the Hound is going to kill the Brotherhood without Banners, yet they are who raised Catelyn Stark and if I remember the books properly, she is running with them. That wouldn't jive with Arya and the Hound reunion. So, where exactly would that be going? Oh the questions!

What do you mean "fake Jaqen?"

You mean guy who was using the same face that Jaqen used at one point, but who is to say is is real or fake?

How about the waif who then took over use of that face (Does that person still use that face or did they go back to the waif? Did someone else take over that face, or did someone else take over the waif face? Or was Arya just seeing things and neither took on different faces - and thus also nobody had Arya's face)? None of it makes too much sense at the moment.

Waif is Arya as Arya is Waif. Look back at the story. They are one and the same. :)

When he took the poison last season and she started ripping face after face off the fake jaqen ...... the last face was her own.

So apparently they don't have to be dead to steal their face.



I think that was a illumination. If they could do that, why cut the faces off in the first place?

I've heard that theory...I don't think it's a good one. If true, then I don't think it's a good story.

A lot better than what other people are saying that Arya will be Lady Stoneheart. The only way that happens is if they completely ignore what was written in the books on a subplot. While they do deviate, they generally haven't thrown everything to the wind the way they would with Lady Stoneheart in that case.

Besides, Waif broke the same rules that Arya did by saying "me" and "I" and of course, there was a fight scene between the two, but when they showed it from a 3rd person view. Only Arya was actually present in the scene! :D

Now this is many years ago that I read this, but wasn't there also a group roaming the countryside with the Mountain basically raiding and pillaging? Now this was earlier in the story, and of course the Mountain is long gone from that group (running around Harrenhall ), but some of those people had to have survived and are probably still raiding.

While there are strong hints that it was the Brotherhood without Banners who killed off the peaceful religious sect the Hound was part of, killing innocent pacifists seems very unlike Dondarian, Thoros or the other characters we came to know. Even with the vicious Lady Stoneheart in the picture, unarmed villagers wouldn't be a target.

If the group turns out to be the remnant of the Mountain's group it would make more sense AND provide a fast reason for Sandor to head over to King's Landing to kill his zombie brother.

Just my thoughts.

So Tyler Durden? Not buying that one for now, but we'll see.

I wasn't sure who they were, someone else told me they were the Brotherhood. They very well may not be and that's why I was a bit puzzled.

Something I did not notice until last night.

The guy who plays Edmure Tully, nephew of the black fish...also plays the main bad guy in the showtime series Outlander...he plays a real bad guy in that show.

I had almost forgot about Tully as the last time we saw him was way back during the red wedding.

Tobias Menzies is a good actor. He is outstanding in Outlander.nthere are many good actors coming out of the U.K. I would guess that they work a little cheaper. Most of them went to acting school and they have great classical training.

The guys Ned Stark sent to stop the Mountain and his gang became the Brotherhood without Banners....but they turned and they no longer served the Crown and were loyal to the Lord of Light.....Thoros of Myr brought Beric Dondarrion back to life after the Hound killed him...they were last seen selling Gandry to Stannis and Melissandre and earned themselves a spot on Arya's list......the Mountain went back to Kings Landing and serves Cersei.....the men that killed all those people this week said they were with the Brotherhood but someone else said they were helping Blackfish at River Run......either way they should have noticed or knew the Hound......he is a legend

Possible spoilers below for episode 9 based off the title of the episode. Avoid reading if you don't want to know.

Game of Thrones: HBO confirms super-sized season 6 finale

The leaks are true: HBO.com has confirmed the titles and running time of the final two episodes of Game of Thrones season 6.

One of these titles could be construed as a spoiler, however, so if you want to truly know nothing about the last two episodes, stop reading now…

The title of episode 9 (and this is the spoiler-y one) is “The Battle of the *******s” – presumably referring to the epic Jon Snow vs. Ramsay Bolton face-off that’s been teased all season. The Thrones showrunners have previously told us that season 6 includes the biggest battle in the show’s history and it’s fair to assume this is it. The running time is 60 minutes, which is firmly on the long side. That episode airs June 19.

Episode 8 is titled "No One" so that most likely will wrap up the the whole Arya/Faceless Man storyline.
