- W(hen)tf did Sansa become "smart"? She's the stupid little girl that never learns. I'm having a hard time with what I guess is a setup to her being smarter than everyone else all of a sudden.
Well, she’s the only one who’s right about Cersei so that’s something. Even Jaime had to confront Cersei before he realized she was lying. Although tbf it’s unrealistic that nobody else thinks Cersei’s up to something, I think Varys would at least say something about it.
- Sam is "devastated" about his father's death? Randall Tarley wanted to kill Sam for being a coward, flog his own men for for falling behind the train, and cursed Gilly for having dinner with him and now were to believe that Sam sees such cruelty in Dani but not in the lived experience with his father?
He was obviously more devastated by his brother’s death. And even if his father was abusive, I don’t think Sam is the type who would be glad to know that he was burned alive. Like, I wouldn’t wish that kind of death even to the bitches who bullied me in high school, and I am not even half as sweet and kind as Sam.
- I was confused at how Tormund, Beric, and the watch men happened upon Ned Umber? Did I miss a raven or something that told them all to meet there?
Not sure what this means.
- Remember when the north men said "It was the dragons we bowed to". So Dani is there with the dragons, how come they're not bowing?
Yeah long ago the a Stark Lord bent the knee to a Targaryen King. But then Rhaegar ‘kidnapped’ Lyanna, and then The Mad King burned Lord Ricakrd and Brandon Stark alive.
