I feel like Stoneheart will be put off until the very last minute. My prediction is that Brienne will be "captured" in episode 8, absent in episode 9 since everything aside from the Wall will not have any scenes, and the last five or ten minutes of the episode will be dedicated to Stoneheart and the Brotherhood.

That was actually ASoS' last chapter before the epilogue, not AFFC, but not much else really happens with Sansa in AFFC either, so I doubt we'll see her much next season.

And the Jojen paste theory is basically canon in my mind, I love it. It makes total sense and it's so creepy omfg.

Yeah that's what I think they're going to do.... I hope they go with the Merret Frey one, though, because it shows Lady Stoneheart as the BA whose killing Freys every. It'll give them hope. And then in Season 5 have them hang Brienne early on and have her scream one word (GRRM confirmed it's 'Sword!'). That's what I'd like to see. One can hope.

Bleh, Brienne's timeline messed me up. That's what I meant, thanks. It's too bad they didn't go full Alayne and dye her hair brown. I wonder who the scapegoat will be since Marillion died awhile ago in King's Landing.

Yess. I wonder how Bran will react when he finds out he ate his bestfriend.

Well they keep mentioning the Freys in the episodes so they're clearly trying to keep them in people's minds. Take it as a sign if you will, I know I am.

Marillion died? I don't recall that. Lol at him. Not sure on Brienne though, but she's headed to the Vale so maybe Stoneheart is around there somehow? Looking for her sister or something? No idea.

I chose not to believe in JPaste, but mostly because if he is to die it has to be naked and importantly naked. This is purely because Thomas Brody Sangster.

Also, I thought the "Giant-slayer" prophecy was Sansa killing Baelish. I mean, it's clearly about her (Purple snakes in her hair = Poison hairnet) and the "Giant" would be Baelish because of the Titan connection, no?

Though seeing Stoneheart off LF would be GREAT.

I pray for it to happen, so I'll take that as a sign.

Yeah he was that singer who Joff cut off his tongue in court.

I think it'd be deliciously ironic if Sansa offed LF. It would be a great end to Lord Baelish.. or like you said, Stoneheart gets to him first. He did betray Ned after all. Sansa should be there too. Then Cat can be happy.

Sooo, the Defence of Castle Black happened. I was very saddened that Pyp and Grenn died... they made a lot of changes as to how everything went down but it's okay I guess.

I LOVED how they did Sansa. I think I like this change even better than in the books because it shows how Sansa has finally learned how to play the game. Plus Sophie Turner is really hot. Unless of course in TWOW Sansa does something even more badass. I'm so glad they finally dyed her hair. It was worth the wait.
Meh, didn't like how they changed the snowcastle part but whatever.

Poor Oberyn... they made his death more brutal than I ever imagined.

I absolutely am ecstatic for the season finale. So much will be going down. People will think that Ygritte's death and the Defence of Castle Black was the big major thing of Ep 9. Then, Tyrion escapes and kills Tywin and Shae. I feel like these last few episodes, especially Oberyn's, have made the show watchers feel like utter crap. When Tyrion kills and escapes, EVERYONE'S hope will be revived and they'll believe in the series again. And that the good guys can win. After that, Lady Stoneheart will appear and start hanging Freys and BOOM. Everyone is so ecstatic and in love with GoT. Even if you didn't like Cat, she's still hanging Freys, so it's all good.

Sorry about the necromancy; this thread needed to be revived. I had to sacrifice a lot of people in a lot of fires to R'hllor to make this happen lol.

I REALLY CAN'T EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS STREAMLINED SANSA OMFG
SHE'S SO SMART PEOPLE WILL FINALLY LEAVE HER ALONE I'M SO READY

I didn't really care for Jon's story after he leaves Ygritte nor did I like Tyrion after he kills Tywin and Shae, but next episode is going to be absolutely crazy. It's an extra like fifteen minutes longer, too, I think? I've been waiting for Stoneheart all season and if she isn't in the show exactly the same as in the books I will cut D&D's fun bits off and hang em round me neck, to quote Ygritte.
