Didn't she bury it?

 

I thought she threw it in the water.

 

From Game of Thrones Wiki

"In order for Arya to become "no one", she must discard her old clothes, stolen silver, and her sword. She tosses her clothes and silver into the lagoon, but she hesitates to throw Needle. Arya cannot bring herself to discard the gift Jon Snow had given her and hides Needle under a pile of rocks in a sea wall nearby"

 

Oh yea, that's right.

Also, we already knew where the Wight Walkers came from in the books, in case people forgot.

 

She buried it under some rocks by the sea. Hopefully valaryian steel can withstand rust because that cannot be good for it.

 

Remind me?

 

Sure, I definitely enjoyed the scene with Sansa and Littlefinger, but there's a lot more to these episodes than just one or two scenes. I thought the Greyjoy stuff was poorly done. The Arya scene was okay, so was the Dany scene. Like I said, thought this was just your typical GOT episode until the last ten minutes.

There are a few episodes from the past two seasons I'd take over this one: the episode of Tyrion's trial, The Mountain and The Viper, and Hardhome specifically.

And as for Brienne, I think the show has made her mote interesting than the books, but that's just me. I like her, but her POV chapters were tough to get through sometimes.

 

Almost certain it is not made of Valaryian steel.

 

"Sam the Slayer!" he said, by way of greeting. "Are you sure you stabbed an Other, and not some child's snow knight?"

An exchange between Cotter Pyke and Sam.

 

I feel like they killed him because they don't want to waste cgi budget on him all the time. So I doubt they would bring him back. Who knows though. A wight HODOR and summer chasing meera and bran later could be intense.

 

You are correct, I was mistaken. My bad. That sword will be shit if she retrieves it.

 

this is not true lol

 

Yeah, it's been a bit since I read the last book, but I don't remember that at all

 

So the quote I posted doesn't mean anything?

 

And that play was like a huge metaphor/foreshadowing. The actress that plays Sansa wants to kill the actress that plays cersei. Arya has to kill the cersei actress, cersei being a name on her list. Hmmmmm subtle.

 

the books do not reveal the origins of the walkers or the others.

 

I think that quote is a joke about him stabbing a snowman

 

"Sam the Slayer!" he said, by way of greeting. "Are you sure you stabbed an Other, and not some child's snow knight?"

So that didn't mean anything?

Could be a joke, or it was just something so vague that no one paid any attention to it. I didn't come up with this, by the way.

 

Isn't the play the first time Arya has learned Sansa was married to Tyrion?

 

I just realized that Sansa is under 20 and has had 3 husbands.

 

serious q: did you read the books?

 

Nope.

 

Pretty sure it's just a joke. I get that there is a good deal of foreshadowing in the books, both subtle and otherwise, but there are also a lot of instances of people adding way more meaning to passages than is actually there. I think this is the latter.

 

Okay. That quote is basically a one liner mocking Sam and is said by like a rando nights watch member. If that was the way we found out how the walkers came to exist - and it's worth noting that "child" does not mean the same thing as "children of the forest," who are also considered to be myths by most people - it would be an absurd way of revealing it and even worse because no one else in the series ever brings it up or expounds upon it.

 

two husbands, she never married joffrey. she has only been married to tyrion and ramsay.
