They couldn't choreograph a nice fight scene at the end? They've been building up that rivalry for so long, and we don't even get to see the big finish!
Also, the only thing we got out of Arya's entire storyline was personal growth. We're too close to the end of this show (only a couple more seasons left). We ain't got time for a personal growth arc if it does not pertain to the rest of the story. Ultimately, this Faceless Man plot was worthless.
Did you guys see that blonde guy when Arya went under the bridge or something?
I'm not sure if he was Olyvar, but he was definitely looking at Arya...
maybe Vary's or LF's spy?
This episode was tragic garbage, and I say this as a huge fan who forgives a lot and really enjoys character development.
I'm livid that the duel between the Waif and Arya happened OFFSCREEN, when she blew out the candle I was like "oh cool, we're going to get a fight in the dark!" And then OOPS flashforward.
Brienne showing up in Riverrun FOR NOTHING, Jaime negotiating his way to victory, the Blackfish dying (or escaping) offscreen... the only good part of that was Jaime talking to Edmure.
The Hound is boring. Tyrion's jokes are tiresome. Dany showing up for LITERALLY 0.5 seconds was SO LAME. The dragon shadow silhouette... lmao. Where the **** has the budget gone?
AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON KING'S LANDING. I can't believe Cersei's iconic "I choose violence" line led to the death of....... ONE unnamed sparrow. Great stuff.
The last two eps better be spectacular. If Ramsey and the High Sparrow both survive I'm going to be livid.
Edit: And lmao at Arya still in Braavos and Dany still in Meereen.
I really hope they redeem themselves in the last two episodes. The season started off SO GOOD but the last 3 episodes were pure filth.
I think the last 2 will be the episodes that will save this season from being a complete mess. Especially with what Cersei has in store. Or at least I'm hoping, lol.
I know you gotta suspend belief in this show but this arya scene is asking the most
When she jumped off the balcony and fell down multiple concrete stairs and got up barely unscathed all the while still recovering from several stab wounds to the stomach.

I expected so much from this episode, I hate that recently they just talk out of issues or weasel their way out... the Tyrell Army in Kings Landing... the Septon lets Margaery go since she's a nun now... the Lannister Army at Riverrun.... it takes only one guy to defy the Blackfish and they give up the castle... WTF, at least give us some good one on one battles, lets see the Blackfish go down like a true champ, lets see Arya have a go at the Waif...
