J'quen appears, to me, to have a soft spot for Arya.

Also, remember, the waif has it out for Arya. She is WANTING to kill her. Jaquen only kills when he has a reason to, it's not for personal vengeance. I still think that Arya kills the waif, hence her getting needle back but that makes sense to.
The Waif's dislike of Arya seems a little extreme to be random. What if she used to be someone that hated Arya (or the Starks) for some reason?

Has this been a test for the Waif? She clearly is too passionate in her hatred of Arya and all highborns.
Could be on to something there.
That could be a reason for J'quen to interfere with the waif. The waif let her past control her thoughts and behavior. Its quite obvious that J'quen is relaxed and doesn't let emotion take him while the waif certainly struggles with that.

Like they said on After The Thrones, Arya has been getting special treatment from Ja'qen and the Waif probably resents her for it.
Did anyone else find it strange to hear Walder Frey refer to "The Red Wedding" as "The Red Wedding"? I thought that was just what it became known as on the show, thanks to book readers. Didn't know that it was actually called that in the GoT universe.
After The Thrones said it was like someone quoting themselves. Seems a bit full of himself, that one.

Y'all remember this shot in the trailer of Arya jumping across an alley, Bourne style?
I bet the fight starts in the dungeon, Waif is outmatched and tries to flee. Arya chases her across the city.
Don't know about y'all but I think this could be badass.

That is closer to Assassin Creed's style
Maybe, but it's almost straight out of Bourne Ultimatum.
Arya wants to kill the people on her list. She doesn't want to kill someone because someone is jealous of them.

Arya went full Bruce Wayne
Rich kid gets all angsty when her parents are killed
Goes to another continent to learn how to be a ninja
Falls in with assassins, becomes a badass, then when they tell her to kill someone to finish her training, she balks and will probably burn their house down
Now she'll head back to Westeros and fight Superman
BenJen's rescue was badass. His ball of flame was perfect against those dead beasts.

The Mountain is Doomsday... He's a reanimated corpse who is unstoppable.

Wrong metaphor, you have chosen.

I think they tortured one of Hot Pie's friends for info and they kept torturing him even after he gave up the info.quote:Now THIS I could get behind! But remind me, why was the Mountain on her list?

She also admitted during her training that she had taken the Hound off of her list.
Oh, y'all were talking about the Mountain, not the hound. I'm dumb. Carry on.

I am trying to think now of who all she had J'quen kill during that time. How did the mountain not make her list at that point? There were three.
Every time I rewatch the series, it annoys me that Arya didn't list Tywin right off the bat.
quote:the first was the main guy that was torturing prisoners at harrenhal. the second was someone who was suspicious of her after she had just been caught stealing a letter from tywin. he got a dart to the neck right as he was going to meet tywin. she named jaqen as her third victim after he stated he wouldnt help her escape, but then agreed to take his name off the list in exchange for helping her escape harrenhal. i think she wanted tywin as her third but he had already left harrenhal at that point.

Their names were Tickler and Amory Lorch respectively, incidentally.
All this talk of Ayra reminds me....
Where's Gendry? Still floating around in that skiff? It's been over a year in GOT time.

Gendry is the key to it all.
Dany needs a fleet to invade Westeros, right? Just imagine how good Gendry is at rowing now. Plus he has magic kings blood, so they can always just put a leech on his ding dong when they need a game changer.

How many times have you rewatched the series?
Two or three times, not sure.
I've seen the first season a couple times. Not sure I could power through the whole series at this point.
There is so much great tv...I cannot imagine rewatching any TV series. Maybe Band of Brothers?
GoT is better the second time thru. So much foreshadowing.
