the guy who changes his face gave her a stupid bravos coin that summons him to take her to face-wraping assassin school.
she needs to find a bravos man and tell him "all men must die" (vallaar margoli) and then shit happens.
also, Loved the new evil makeover for sansa. it was an amazing scene. and the brotherly banter between Jamie and Tyrion was awesoe.
Awww

She's laughing because it is the only thing she can do in a situation like that. Her life is shit. She gets the slim idea that she can get reunited with whatever is left of her family and she's already dead when they get there. Just like with her mother.Originally Posted by Death BOO Z
It was a beautifully acted scene. Her laughter seems good natured and natural, but there's faint look of sadness there too (when she raises her eyebrows it looks like she's about to start crying).
The Hound too. At first he's pissed, then horrified, then shocked, then dumbstruck at his shitty luck all in a few seconds.
They might have told her that her sister was still alive if Littlefinger hadn't lied to the guards. But Arya doesn't even get that much. She really has the worst luck. If she was only a sliver more fortunate, someone would have killed her by now and spared her from the misery.
I think Im going to drop this show after this season, 90% of this episode was ridiculous filler.
Edit: And I'm tired of the writers changing the actual scenes from the books. Sansa was not supposed to reveal her identity to the lords of the Vale, only defend Little Finger.
Is the non-canon writing so bad that you couldn't enjoy it on its own merits? I read the complaints about the gratuitous sex and nudity and changes from the books in the second and third seasons, but I didn't see all that much of it when watching those seasons. Did you read the books recently? Maybe you're remembering them incorrectly or incompletely.
Some things I find different from the books, not necessarily bad, just different:
Sansa is more of a victim that you feel compassion for that the obnoxious dumb bitch she is in the books.
Lord Varys is a lot more likable in the show than in the books. His motives are more noble and less seedy.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
No, literally half of season 4 is filler. Seasons 2 and 3 had maybe one scene each episode that was embellished.
I have not read the books, but a friend of mine (who is a writer) actually says that the show is better than the books since it cuts out a lot of fat, like POV characters that will die right after being introduced. He also said that the show changed or combined some characters to give them more weight.
I do not think that deviation from the original makes a story worse. Sometimes it actually improves it. I am not really seeing the deterioration some book fans are saying about the series.
I do have a lot of complaints that book fans do not really speak about, like why the hell is Oberyn using shaolin staff techniques using a spear, but I can look past those because of the great dialog and story.
Peace.
This weeks episode was fantastic!
Btw, was this the first ep in the series where the whole thing was pretty much focused on a single location instead of jumping around between places/storylines?

I think so.
in the big fight scene, when the camera hovered and different angles of the courtyard fight went on... amazing.
What was the point of the big forest fire? What was the point of not attacking en masse? They could have raped the wall, easily.
John Snow really stepped up, though.
"After all, I am strangely colored."
One thing that did bother me was that when Jon left, why the fuck didn't he take Ghost with him?

I guess he figured the crows need Ghost more than he does?
Which makes no sense. He is planning to kill the enemy leader. He needs all the help he can get.
The reason why the wildlings did not attack en masse is because this was a test of the defenses. It makes tactical sense.
I did not get the logical reason for the fire aside from intimidation though.
Peace.
I'm still catching up, almost finished with season 3. It's weird, I know I should applaud the likes of Locke for tormenting Jaime Lannister and the guy who is torturing Theon, but it's hard to cheer them when Jaime and Theon are in such shit states. We know Jaime and Theon deserve pain, but we also know the motives for the evils they have done are complicated and somewhat justified. Can't wait to catch up so I can join in more timely discussion of this series.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
It really doesn't make tactical sense. They tested the defenses, triggered the traps, and then gave the crows a chance to rest and maybe even get reinforcements.
"After all, I am strangely colored."
They also gave themselves a chance to regroup and plan based on what they learned from the initial attack. Snow said so himself in this episode.
They aren't fighting just to win. It makes sense that they want to win with the least amount of sacrifices. Forcing a charge when you can try again with less casualties is foolish. I am not saying this will actually happen, but from the perspective of the invader, it seems optimal.
Peace.
They can't just chip away at the wall, so an en masse attack would be useless. From what I remember of the books, the Giant's attack on the gates was crucial to Mance Rayder's plan and it was actually another character that helped to seal the gate during the fight (Grenn isn't supposed to have died).
So at this point we should be cheering for Mance and his wildlings to succeed and bring war to Westeros which is ruled by the evil Lannisters.
