GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

I wonder if the White Walkers can command the Undead Mountain now.

So presumably she'll recover her eyesight after an episode of seeing her bumbling around blind, then another episode or two showing her having gotten used to the blindness.

I didn't see it as a full blown suicide attempt, more of an act born out of the resignation that regardless if it meant death or escape, either was preferable to enduring any more of Ramsay's machinations.

It's not a fuckup, they're attempting to commit suicide. How is this unclear to people?

Nothing about that scene suggests they were trying to commit suicide.

I'm curious how the Viper chick thinks she can get away with poisoning the Lannister girl. She was the last person in contact with her, and poison is her calling card.

Called it with the princess dying, all those ppl were getting way too happy of an ending so someone had to die, figured it would be the princess or tristan dying to save her. I don't think the viper mom planned to get away with it though, either she bolts or she is going to be sentenced to death.

I didn't think for one second they were trying to kill themselves and I didn't really recall the details in the book.

I'm seriously having one of those 'everyone is dumb except me' moments. It was obviously suicide, especially from the way they paused, looked each other in the eyes, and gripped hands. It was just set up in a dumb and contrived way so that they'll be alive when S6 starts.

I'm starting to think you're the only person who thought it was a suicide attempt.

Why would they kill that girl just to then jump to their deaths?

No, it clearly was not. It was meant to give that impression to some viewers, but if they wanted to commit suicide they could have jumped where Theon threw Myranda instead of out into a snow drift of unknown depth. They're taking a chance, yes, but they aren't resigned to death.

Lol it wasn't suicide. It was only to show they were willing to risk death in order to escape. That's all dude.

Not even one thing about that scene insinuated suicide. Reek had JUST saved her life, and now you think he wants to end his and hers?

Tons of people were jumping 30 feet into snow all over Boston this winter, just for fun.

Maybe they were just having fun and s6 will open with a snowball fight

Are you sure they weren't trying to escape Boston?

It's starting to look that way. They were desperate to get away from Ramsay. Reek had been suffering from his attentions for months, Sansa was just beginning to get a taste of it.

At most I'll concede their intention was to escape, but felt that dying from the fall was a perfectly acceptable alternative, and there was absolutely no part of that scene that made it look like they would survive that fall. There was a melt on, and they did nothing to establish that there was a deep enough snowdrift for a 3+ story drop.

If I were Jaime, I'd turn the ship around, present Myrcella's body to Doran, and tell him if he wants Trystane back in one piece, he will have all of the sand snakes brutally murdered in front of Ellaria, and Ellaria sentenced to live out the rest of her days in a cell.

But I believe in a bucketful of eyes for an eye.
