i think kit harington will snatch an emmy nom for this episode
I hope so too, Kit has been great since S4. His acting with Sophie in the sibling argument this episode should land them both a nomination. So sick of Dinklage stealing noms from way better actors on GoT. He deserved it for S1 and S2, but after that it should've gone NCW for S3, Charles Dance for S4, Stephen Dillane for S5.
I'm also still upset Michelle Fairley never got a nod.
It also shows how incredibly gullible Dany is. Just feed her ears some feminist sweet talk and she's ready to share the carpet. It's nice though that they show that side of Dany, stops her from being completely white-washed.
I don't see that as gullible, she's just becoming good at listening what comes her way, instead of being stubborn. She relates to Yara's story (cocky brother, mad father) and the offer is reasonable. A providential match.
I give credit to Dany in this episode tbh, she listened to Tyrion and proved us wrong when we were quick to say that she would end up like her father. It seems she's in good hands.
If someone calls her out on her bull****, she's like: ok.
Honestly I wonder what'll happen with the Northern politics now.
Sansa is the only Stark by name left. So my guess is that The North, now that it belongs to them again, must declare her Queen in The North, they are in clear opposition to the crown so Sansa can't be called a Wardeness of the North.
I'm very interested to see how things will shape up next season in Winterfell.
And if Bran is gonna bring down the Wall or not lol.
Yeah the fact alone of northern lords declaring her Queen in the North is unrealistic. Especially if Jon is there. She's surrounded by men and the realm of the north is a mysognistic patriarchy. The only back up she has is Littlefinger and the Vale but they're not from the north, they have no weight in the decision.
The only problem is that Jon is a bastard, but will the northern lords really give a **** after what just happened? They going to do exactly what they did after Robb's first victory and say a big **** to King's Landing. The politic of the north is different from the rest of the 7 Kingdoms, they love being independent and pull this kind of ****.
I don't think Sansa is interested in being Queen or Wardeness or whatever. She just wanted revenge and her home back. Littlefinger on the other hand wants more for her and himself. Let's see how things play out next season but honestly we have bigger fish to fry.
Sansa has checked out emotionally. Can't blame her. Yes she cares about her family in some way, but she's trying to protect herself first and foremost, so she can't afford to be emotionally invested anymore. All she wants is to protect herself and be independent.
She didn't tell Jon about Littlefinger and the Vale, cause she doesn't trust him.
She knew Rickon would die, but considered it a necessary sacrifice, cause all she wants is Winterfell.
She came swooping in with the Vale army at the last minute, not knowing whether her brother would still be alive by then. Probably didn't matter to her. She looked surprised to see him still alive, running after Ramsay.
Sansa is turning into Littlefinger, not Catelyn. I'm hoping Jon pulls her back in with the next episode, but she still keeps her wits.

Is it wrong that I ship Sansa and Jon? I want them together so bad
