Was Littlefinger not talking to the moon boy about supporting the North, specifically Winterfell in an earlier episode?

Really surprising to see the brotherhood acting like that, if it's the brotherhood without banners. That was more in line with the kingswood brotherhood.

What if they had a new leader? One more ruthless than Dondarrion? A female one? That would now be a surprise since everyone has given up on her appearing?

Another theory is that the girl stabbed wasn't Arya, but Jaqen who was trying to determine whether the Waif would make Arya suffer or not. It would explain her acting strange as she didn't seem herself leading up to that point.

That is one possibility I'd considered.
 
Indeed, and if it was Jacquen determining if waif would make her suffer, what if she didnt? His throat would be cut, and he would be gone, and the faceless men would be no better off.

I am just wondering with or without suffering how one survives two deep stab wounds to the gut. Time will tell. Assume jac saves her somehow, takes out waif for being rage girl and not doing as she was told. Waif gets added to wall, face for a face as he said, role is fulfilled, at that point arya is free to go.

So... It is not that much of a surprise that she is asking him for help, desperation leads people to make these decisions.

You don't remember the meeting Sansa had with Littlefinger in Mole's Town ? She dismissed his help after She berated him over Ramsay.

Two things; she got on well with moon boy and he's top dog now.

Also; I did mention desperation :).

So Bran can now do a whole load of stuff that even he is still getting to grips with. In an earlier episode, we saw he almost managed to speak to a younger Ned Stark before being taken away by the old three eyed raven. Well, lets assume that with time, he comes to learn that he can indeed talk to people in the past..

He would surely try to fix everything the Lannister's started and try to save his family by going back to where it all began..

So what if he does just that.. he goes back in time to tell the most powerful man in all the kingdoms of everything which is going to happen in hopes he will stop it.

This man believes him and confides in his closest advisors and friends for help. They cant believe what he's saying, and brand him Mad.


Yadder yadder yadder.. enter, The Mad King.


This was just a thought prior to two episodes ago, when Bran had a vision clearly showing us the Mad King for the first time and the KingSlayer stabbing him in the back.

That vision makes me believe this will happen very very much so.

Response to a fan theory
A few people have come up with the theory following the episode in which young Ned turns around following Bran shouting. This seems to be further evidenced by the three eyed raven grabbing Bran and bringing him back to the present. Though I have also seen a slight alternative theory that it was the three eyed raven that made the Mad King mad. In which case his reaction to Bran calling out wasn't shock that young Ned turned around but panic of knowing what can happen if you try to change the past.

Personally though I am not a fan of this theory, not because it doesn't seem plausible but because time travel almost always leads to some horrible paradoxes and twists to explain how everything actually goes together. I would much rather see it as a cheeky thing the writers put in to try and troll fans and that Bran can only ever see the past.

fan theory
more likely it was the three eyed raven... since he was a Targaryen himself (presumably warning the King about the White Walkers)... plus Bran has probably learned his lesson about not interfering in the past thanks to the Hodor incident
 
I think i need to re-watch the whole thing from the beginning as i haven't got a clue whats going on any more.

I was hoping Theon would have exacted his revenge on Ramsey, by pretending to still be under his control then brutally murdering him. The look of shock on his face would have been priceless. But now they are off to meet Daenerys, which means he wont, or that Jon loses the battle with Ramsey and Theon will still get to kill him later on. Really not sure what the point of Theon is now unless it is to get revenge on Ramsey.

I'm glad the Hound is back, but it was pretty obvious he would be, just like it was with Jon Snow and now Arya. Like anything big and powerful in GOT he got made to look weak being beaten by a woman (who was almost taken out by some random soldier a couple of eps ago). Not sure how he would believably beat the Mountain 2.0.

Glad this whole many faced god crap is hopefully drawing to a close. Arya was a good character and has been wasted this season imo, I'd love to see her and the hound back together, but i doubt that will happen.

yeah it's different for him in the books. he doesn't go down fighting and never meets brienne whom he would beat in a fight. also makes him showing back up again and fighting with the mountain more realistic. after all you do see him go toe to toe with his brother in season 1/the first book and is massive himself. maybe zombie mountain is a little on the slow side now?

Just read a an interesting theory that the Waif and Arya could in fact be the same person, i.e. Arya is battling with her inner self, trying to let go of Arya Stark and becoming a faceless man and we're likely to find out the result of this next episode.

Another theory is that the girl stabbed wasn't Arya, but Jaqen who was trying to determine whether the Waif would make Arya suffer or not. It would explain her acting strange as she didn't seem herself leading up to that point.

that first idea could work in the books but it would be rather difficult to convey well in the TV series without either confusing the crap out of the audience or having some very weird scenes to try and explain it
