The High Sparrow is just another hypocritical zealot.
I reckon he'll get his comeuppance pretty soon.

It never said, but because Rhoynar was fomerly not in the title, one would assume the Dornish were Andals. With Rhoynar now in the title, one still wouldn't know the Dornish were Rhoynar as it was never addressed. So show-wise, one has to question the idea that the Dornish are Rhoynar.

Lol. You are not making any sense.

You are okay with assuming the Dornish are andals without any proof yet you are calling him out for assuming that they are Rhoynar without proof?

Try to understand, before you conclude nothing makes sense. He stated the First Men and Andal and Rhoynar origin, and i stated there was no way to make such statement show wise as the show never covered it, it would have had to be from the source, but since he always dismissed the source, how come he answered it, correctly.

Talking of real life analogue, if you meant Jona, then you miss my point entirely.

I don't think I did...and I suspect that you are the one missing my point.

Your point was that the High Sparrow is secretly using the faith as a vehicle for his ambition.I don't know if you are very conversant with Nigerian politics, but the high sparrow's rise to power is very similar to Jonas'

Both were initially granted power by their patrons. Both then consildated this power on a platform of populist rhetoric of transformation, intended to resonate heavily with a disenfranchised population far disconnected from the ruling class.

Eventually Jonathan's message of transformation and hope would be discovered to be false...and while a similar exposure of the High Sparrow's message has yet to happen on the show, you(and many others) already believe his message to be false as well.

Anyway, my point has been thus: Even taking in to consideration the idea thar the high sparrow is a charlatan, and merely using religion as a cloak for his real goal of political power, why do we not still suport him...especially as he represents the common man?

It's not like the other candidates are particularly pursuing altruistic agendas in their quest for the throne.

Rob Stark and the Baratheons were ready to kill and would ultimately die for a stolen mandate.

Danaerys is currently destroying several cities in succession as she pursues her nakedd ambition to her grandfather's old chair.

So why shouldnt the high sparrow use (false)religious fervor to his favour much in the same way the other contestants use their bloodlines and ancient sworn oaths?

It almost had to have been Jaquen that pose as Arya. We've
seen him use Arya's face before, last season.
Arya had untold amounts of cold, hard cash
and beautiful clothes seemingly from
nowhere. Her dialogue wasn't consistent with
her character. Arya also wouldn't be stupid
enough to let her guard down like that. I say
Jaquen lured the waif (who has now
disobeyed him) and is posing as Arya in a very
public way, thus giving more credence to her
death. I don't know but if you put all the details
together it makes sense that a girl wasn't
arya last night...
Never are we shown that she get a lot of
money....she didn't seem to get a lot while
begging.
Also Jaquen walks with his two hands behind his back, arya dont walk like that ,she also didn't have her needles.

I love you.

Epic scene. Ser Bronn of the Blackwater is really something. And people say the episode was boring. I think 'boring' needs to be redefined.

I just dont want game of thrones season 6 to end soon, I wish its episode will reach 22 like others I know of. I'm getting depressed already. My top notch TV series are just ending anyhow. From Empire,teen wolf,salem,to Grimm, now Got will end soon. So sad.

Most people have failed to notice that the High Sparrow tricked Queen Maegery into sending away her greatest ally - her grandmother. If he really wanted to arrest Olenna, it would have been foolish to share his plans with her grand-daughter.
Don't you see they both have a hidden agenda and snake bite is more deadly and fast than just a tortoise tricks

Different strokes for diff. Folks I guess. I don't expect Hardhome every episode and I'm a dialogue person. That's why I loved the Lyanna mormont scene. Epic dialogue scenes are getting less and less on the show such as Tyrions trial speech.

Funny observation from the latest episode, so the hound was chopping wood far away when he could take the log and chop it in the zone where those peasants stayed.

There's a little prejudice in that reply though. I can't discuss about the Faith without projecting my views on real world religions.

What if Jaqen H'ghar took Arya Stark's form, just to catch the Waif in her brutal murder attempt after asking her not to let Arya suffer?

Jaqen seems to be really invested in Arya. What if Jaqen H’ghar is actually her former teacher, Syrio Forel? shocked

What was the meaning of that inscription Margery gave to her grand mother that convinced Olenna to leave king's landing?
That's a rose, an emblem of the Tyrells. She was letting her grandma know that she has not forgotten who she is i.e. she has a plan.

my mind tells me that jaquen needs Arya for his greater plan.
Or he just like her which pisses Waif off. She is scared a new girl will replace her lolz. Jaquen own is that he has a soft spot for Arya. It won't be bad to see a glimpse of romance between a man and a girl. But a girl is too young for a man, I will like to see a man kiss a girl. My dirty mind lolzz cheesy

Jaquen is so cute.

His face changed because he was ready to begin the journey not because he has reached his destination. Seriously though, how do you people watch movies?

Glover stated exactly why he wasn't going to help and you are still wondering why he isn't going to help?

Even Davos said " i don't know northerners but i know men" when Sansa said northerners are very loyal.


Exactly. If not for anything else, I'd support Jon Snow just to exact revenge for my kinsmen who were betrayed and murdered by the Boltons. That's more in line with normal human behaviour.

Nothing out of character. Sandor Clegane has always been a "private" person and considering his recent near death and "resurrection" travails combined with the admonishment of Septon Ray, it is totally understandable that he'd want to be alone.

Syrio Forel last seen: weaponless surrounded by lannister soldiers hungry for his head. Jaqen H'ghar as Arya? Maybe. But Syrio not by any chance


What's the big deal if Arya dies anyway?
A girl did wrong
A girl should be purnished
