He surrendered the castle because Jamie told him he would launch his baby into the castle with a catapult if he didn’t. Honestly, you believe everything everyone says in the show and you must know y now that you just can’t do that. Jamie made that threat to get him to relent so Jamie wouldn’t have to slaughter everyone. He did what Browne asked.

Jaime's reaction after finding out Blackfish is dead is very important. Especially after speaking with Edmure, it shows he's not going to sleep tonight. The series don't show us Jaime's POV and his thoughts as much but his whole life is struggling with the concept of honour (also the name of his white horse). Blackfish is someone he respected a lot. Renowned as one of the greatest battle commanders in Westeros, Jaime looked up to him. It was Blackfish who led Tully and Stark forces in the battle of the Whispering Woods, so he basically captured Jaime and took him from Cersei for years, but Jaime still respected him. He only met him 2-3 times but Jaime was desperate for his respect. He felt the same way about other people like Barristan Selmy and Arthur Dayne, not so much about Tywin because he never wanted to be like him. Hearing that Blackfish died an honourable death only reminded him of who he is. Edmure hit the nail on the head when they spoke, and he understood that in that moment. To me, Jaime is an absolute masterpiece of a character by GRRM, and Nikolaj does a wonderful job portraying him with the limited material.

You were surprised when Edmure gave up so easily & ordered his men to lay down their weapons & leave the castle , but remember earlier Jamie threatened Edmure that he would catapult his baby into the river & would do whatever it takes in order to get back to Cersei. After hearing that Edmure decided to completely submit to Jamie's demands which is understandable but also horrifying & disturbing.
@johnalden5821
@johnalden5821 Год назад
Exactly. Edmure surrendered the castle -- and the entire Tully army. In effect, he has become a vassal of the Lannisters. I am not sure why Spartan and Pudgey did not understand that. Edmure capitulated to save his family -- it was all he had left. But he is not an independent agent now. The Lannisters could put the entire Tully garrison in irons or even put them to the sword. Edmure has no power to stop them.

It's the 'Brotherhood WITHOUT Banners', the idea is that they fight for justice for everyone, especially for the poor, not just for the interests of one Family or another. In a society where eveyone is affiliated with some family's sigil, the people with Beric and Thoros have renounced to alll Banners and fight for the ones suffering because of the wars fought among the big lords.

Jaimie threatened Edmure that he would launch his baby son over the walls of the castle and slaughter everyone in the castle unless he went in there as its Lord and told the army to stand down and give the castle to the Frey forces. Jaimie is trying to do this as Brienne asked to take the castle without bloodshed, while still achieving his goal. Brienne had to get out of there as everyone will be prisoners once the castle is taken. Jacqen is proud of Arya. He likes her. He knows that she will give names to the faceless God, whether she is there with him or if she leaves. Their God got his name since rhe waif died. He trained Arya so now she can look after herself. It's much better than when she came to him.

Your guys interpretation of Aryas arc is right on point. She would never lose her Stark heritage as the waif said "She'll never be one of us."

But that can't be the way of the Faceless Men if they could just kill anyone why even bother going on "missions". Besides when she had to kill the Thin Man she went after Meryn Trant and killed him instead but that was a problem to Jaqen so that whole "as long as someone dies the debt is paid" doesn't really hold water imo. We do not know much about the Faceless Men but what we do know doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
@Mrryn
@Mrryn Год назад
​@@PohiI mean, as much sense as what got Arya into Jaquen's gold graces to begin with. Arya saved him and Rorge and Biter from captivity and, as a "reward" for sparing 3 names from the one true god, Jaquen offered his services to send 3 names in exchange that Arya named (with him phrasing it as meeting the quota of lives that should have ended that she saved). Yet when she names him to force his hand, he tries to bargain with her to make her change his mind and "un-name" him and he eventually gives her the coin, changes his face, and fucks off...not even mentioning that we have no clue (beyond fan theories) why the hell a faceless man is just chilling in a caravan going North from King's Landing. So Jaquen was in the area to fulfill a contract, we don't know who for, but still flippantly makes a deal with this little girl who rescued him and two others to fulfill marks just because she saved them from dying? Or the fact that he managed to be captured at all and I guess was seemingly resigned to death because he includes himself as one of the names Arya taken from the Many Faced God and would have just allowed himself to die or only kill one person to meet the quota for himself then escape but then also had to bargain with Arya to name someone other than Jaquen and then didn't actually take a third name iirc? The Faceless Men have been very wonky and all over the place since the beginning, not just here. And that's not even talking about their origins in Valyria and the group taking vague credit for the end of the Dragonlords...aka the Doom of Valyria.

My interpretation of Jaqen H'ghar's reaction at the end is that what he really wanted to test is Arya's ability to stay herself in spite of all their attempts to destroy her identity. The many-faced god represents death, and you have to fight against him in order to stay yourself, not to sink into oblivion.

In the books, Lora is not in KL, and he's wounded. Jaime is in the Riverlands, so she can't name him either. It's too bad that the show didn't make it a point to show who all the knights of the King's Guards are. Because originally, Cersei can't have the Mountain as her champion because he's not a member. But after the Arys Oakheart get killed in Dorne protecting Myrcella, that's when Cersei see an opening to have The Mountain in the King's Guard so he can be her champion.

Initially, I found the plot of "The Faceless Man" somewhat perplexing, but upon deeper analysis, it began to unravel and make more sense to me. It seems that in order for Arya to become a faceless man, she had to first master her own identity. When Jaqen broke and blinded her, it was as if he granted her the ability to truly see herself. It was a transformative experience that required her to embrace her true nature and understand her own character. Now, Arya is a faceless man embodying the persona of Arya Stark completely, for she has gained a profound awareness of her own identity and is able to play herself perfectly. Jaqen is happy as he sees that she has mastered her fist face witch is Arya Stark, this will aid her in assuming other faces and being able to inbody other characters in the future.

I like Pudgey's interpretation of Arya's story line. The more they tried to get her to abandon her true self, the more Arya rebelled against them. Basically, everything she had experienced since season 1 was conspiring and acting to tear her down. First she had to pretend to be "Arry," then she was Tywin Lannister's servant, and then she was told directly to be "no one." Finally, she gained the strength to fight for her own identity. All of the childhood innocence has now been completely burned away. But in its place, she has been empowered to truly be who she is destined to be.

So basically, after all these injuries in her belly Arya was healed by some magic soup. While common people would probably be dead, Arya instead runs from Waif so fast, that any special agent or marine these days would feel ashamed of himself. Don't forget jumping from the balcony, falling on the street, etc. An improved version of James Bond, that's for sure.

For Arya, I didn’t like the fact that anyone receiving those types of stabs to the stomach would die (during those times). Any perforation of the intestines or bowels you would go septic. However, I thought they could get around it by Lady Crane saying as she stabbed former lovers then patched them up she used some magical healing drops she discovered from the far end of the world where they toured and these would help heal Arya faster. If we have dragons, Melisandre, and people that come back to life surely we can have some magical healing drops?

Aria is brilliant. She set up that stand-off with Waif. Getting stabbed wasn’t part of the plan but running through the city with Waif following her was the real plan. She knew she was gonna be hunted, and she knew who would come after her. It’s why she didn’t have Needle on her. Didn’t it seem strange that despite knowing the dangerous people looking for her, she didn’t have her best weapon on her? She left a blood trail on purpose. So that she would be followed into that dark room. Why else would she leave Needle there? She left it where she knew she was gonna need it. She knew that is how she will beat her, by forcing Waif to fight blind, something that Aria learned how to do. There was no need to see the fight. Once the candle went out, that fight was over.

When Jaime says 'It's yours. It'll always be yours', I legit got sentimental just thinking what a long journey these two characters have had. A really compelling scene between the two hopeless romantics. If this was any other show they would be making out in that tent, you know that. Well they would've made out long before this, in that bath, back in Season 3. And yet, that look of pure sadness they gave each other said more than a thousand make out scenes could've ever expressed. There's something refreshingly organic to this emotion here that's often missing elsewhere. Probably just for how agonizing the build has been. Btw Jaime taking Riverrun with Rains of Castamere playing in the back is my type of aesthetic. Tywin's probably somewhere looking up, finally proud of his son.

Even if Jaime never had decide on whether or not he'd kill Edumure and his son, the simple fact that he threatened him in front of a witness is going to cause him trouble.

The Waif had gotten the best of Arya over and over again and there's no reason to believe this time would've been any different. Except in the only situation where she had an advantage over The Waif...in blindness. A skill that she had acquired specifically because she refused to let go of her human emotions. That moment of her slicing out the candle with Needle was pretty badass. One more typical headchopping sequence wouldn't have done anything for her character. The Mountain already had that covered. The way this was done, bringing it full circle to the blind training and leaving the rest to imagination, was much more inventive and made for an awesome climax.

Jaime in the books is so much more rich and "noble". The books are written as Point of Views so you spend alot of time inside character's thoughts. Jaime spends alot of time figuring out how to end the Tully rebellion while still honoring his vow to Catelyn not to ever take up arms against the Tully's. He's extremely clever and somewhat vicious "on the surface" but it's all in service to avoid actual bloodshed. Also, again...at least in the books, at this point, Jaime is done with Cersei. She sends a raven asking him for help but he doesn't even read it...he throws it into the fire.

Hey crew! About that confusing end scene in the House of Black and White. Here's a perspective. Arya completed the training. The Old Gods put a lot of faith in the concept of Trial by Combat. If the Faceless God had not wanted Arya as one of their Servants, they would have let the Waif kill Arya, but the opposite happened, so of course, Arya has proven her favor in the eyes of her God. Arya passes her trial by combat, returns the Waif's face to the House of Black and White, and the High Priest there, Jacqen, declares in the temple that Arya's training is complete. She's a jedi like her father. "Finally a girl is no one." Arya, as a newly graduated Faceless Man, stands in the House of Black and White, among every Face the Faceless have accumulated for their use, and declares as her first statement as a priestess, what her mission is going to be, and where she's going to go. "A girl is Arya Stark, of Winterfell, and I'm going home." She's not disobeying him. She's telling him that the Faceless God is sending No One to resume the life of Arya Stark in Westeros to serve the God's purposes in whatever the hell is afoot in Westeros. And he knows she is perfect for the role, but he also knows she was able to overcome the emotional ties to her old identity to leave her cold enough and ruthless enough to do whatever the Faceless God might require. She's a jedi now. Go dance faces with the blessings of Mother Temple, No One of the House of Black and White, and send the Faceless God their tribute in lives spilled. If Arya had been quitting or disobeying or denying the Game of Identities (which never ends) she wouldn't have used such a precise sentence structure. She starts agreeing she is No One, because when she speaks, she uses the third person. "A girl is Arya Stark". And after she declares the Face that she is now wearing and the identity that she is going to use, "A girl is Arya Stark of Winterfell." She then switches and assumes that identity again fully, and flips to the first person, "And I'm going home." If she were disobeying or rebelling against Jacqen, the line woud have been "- I - am Arya Stark of Winterfell, and I'm going home." But "A Girl" is Arya Stark, so she's promising to stay true at heart to the training of the Faceless Men. She is now one of them forever.

Yes, exactly! I wrote something similar in a separate comment: "Jaqen smiles when Arya says "a girl is arya, and I'm going home," and he lets her go. Because from his point of view, he has succeeded in training a perfect assassin. And like he says to her when first offering to train her, he knows that she will offer MANY names to the many-faced god, one by one. And so it doesn't matter if she really is or isn't Arya Stark. She's going to Westeros to deal a bunch of death, and to Jaqen, it doesn't matter is she's doing it as an assignment, or to just be a free-roaming faceless man, dealing out justice. It's super ambiguous, and I think it's the perfect setup for whatever's next in Arya's story."

the whole Jaime-Edmure-Blackfish thing relies heavily on subtext so if you just take everything at face value you are likely to get the wrong impression on several things. Jaime: as Edmure kept arguing that he's an awful person who shouldn't live with himself, Jaime relied on that reputation (and perhaps by extension Tywin's) as ruthless and evil, so his threatening Edmure's family has weight. he knows Edmure would believe his threats and uses it to end the siege efficiently without any loss of life (Blackfish's death was on Blackfish himself). Edmure: the Tully words are "Family, Duty, Honor". it's arguable with that in mind, that the most important thing for Tullys is family. the most important thing for Edmure to do is to ensure the continuation of his family and House Tully. believing Jaime's threats to end the House Tully (since there is no other apparent heir, as Blackfish has no family), Edmure agrees to surrender Riverrun in exchange of the survival of House Tully. Blackfish: I have nothing here lmao. imo, same scenario as Barristan - producers trying to cut costs and cast size, simplifying writing, logistics, etc. both characters making stupid "last stand" decisions dying in the same way.

Jaqen always knew Arya would never be a faceless man...he said so a few times. Like when the Waif said, "you'll never be one of us," he says "she's right you know." Arya thought she wanted to be No One, but Jaqen helped her see she didn't really want that. Like Pudgey said, he helped her strengthen her resolve to be who herself, while simultaneously training her to be a badass. She STILL serves the Many Faced God as a trained killer...it's all the same to the Many Faced God. Jamie isn't different than he was in the beginning. He had more of a guard up, but he's always been who we see now. We just thought he was "changing" because the perspective of the story telling changed from Ned, to Jamie, to Brianne. He's always wanted to be a good knight, but his reputation was sullied. He sees that in Brianne, that's why he appreciates and respects her. He's a Lannister, they will do anything to get what they want, he's not the exception. He's always loved Cersei...he pushed a child out of a window for her (she didn't ask him to do that). Edmure brokered the surrender of of the castle because he feared what Jamie would do to his family. Edmure knows Jamie pushed a kid out of a window, and also feels like Jamie is a man of no honor, so he believes Jamie. That agreement was to surrender the castle and it's forces, and hand over the Blackfish.

Nothing special about the High Sparrow, he is after power just like any of the other players in the GoT. His only difference is that his source of power is the fanaticism of his followers, which he attracts through his veneer of piety and poverty.

It's miles better than him joining the circus and riding a pig - yes, that's what happens in the book. Painfully bad writing and butchering of a character there. This scene is important because it establishes better the characters of Missandei and Grey Worm. Unfortunately what it establishes is how simple of people they are. Tyrion is sizing them up wrt their leadership abilities and they don't pass the test.

Jacken(sp?) is Jacken. He didn't die. He may say he is no one, but he clearly has a distinct personality. He can mimic others to such a degree that faceless men claim to be "no one." However, I take it as fantastic hyperbole on their part. He said Arya is finally "noone" as an invitation to join the faceless men as a full fledged member. She had acquired all of the prerequisite skills required. Though, this was just an invitation. Jacken knows and reads people too well to miss how fiercely independent and self aware Arya is. He was not surprised, and I believe more than a little proud, that she returned to her path. I've not read the books just my take.

It's normal to feel a bit let down by off camera fights & deaths but that's also what prevents the main course from getting cheapened. Not blowing the load early or repetitively was the key ingredient that made the big moments of this show so iconic imo. Having Arya cut out the candle makes for a much better suspense scene than another generic sword fight. They could've easily given the Blackfish a heroic sendoff like every other show would've done...and his fight scene would've meant nothing after the next fight. The last words to Brienne meant more. Yes Asoiaf Blackfish is legendary but he was never more than a side character in the show. You can't highlight all ten thousand book characters. A battle weary Blackfish opting to lay down arms at his ancestral home instead of jumping on a wild goose chase on the other side of the continent makes sense. What the Tully troops did was very much in line with history too. An oath to his liege lord took precedence in all decisions for an *honorable* knight. Honor...which brings us to Brienne & Jaime. This episode is theirs, the fighting at Riverrun is just the backdrop. Yet this obvious fact seem incomprehensible to the freefolk types. It would've been impractical to waste a season on a plot as complicated as the Siege of Riverrun. So why not incorporate it within the broader Jaime arc? The story of two star crossed lovers stuck on opposite sides of loyalty is shown phenomenally here. This is a great emotion driven episode. The blowout we'll get.

Jaken definitely likes Arya. Killers seem to take to her. I think Jaken secretly appreciated Arya's sense of justice and that she wasn't just a cold assassin. The other girl is clearly a cruel spiteful killer and I don't think he minds that it was her life and not Arya's that was taken. In the end, I think Jaken would have been happy if Arya had truly joined the Faceless Men but he is also happy to have empowered her to return to the World where she can fulfill what's in her heart: The List.

I don't think Arya could just leave the House of B&W white that easily. There must be a price. And I don't see Jaquen just letting her go because he likes. In the books, Jaquen is not the one to train Arya. And he's not the boss of the House of B&W. There are many people there. I wish the show had done a better job with this storyline.

@@gunkulator1 I think you misunderstand me. I'm not saying Arya should have died or anything, though her wounds were definitely not survivable. What I'm saying is, as far as I'm concerned, the show did nothing of interest with her journey with the House of Black & White. I also don't believe for a second that the Faceless Mean would just let her go. Not when you know what they're up to in the books. At the very least, they would ask something of her to let her leave. The face that this is the last we see of them sucks. The little that we see of Arya in the House of B&W in the books is far more interesting. At least there is some character development. For eg, she develops her warging skills while she's blind. She sees through the cats. Her being a warg is the one thing she has over the Faceless men that they don't know about her.

I took his reaction to mean that J'aqen wanted Arya to be a Faceless Man, but he likes her enough to respect that she not only survived the Waif's attempt to kill her but finally made up her mind and made a decision and she's going back to Westeros to go on a murder rampage with the skills he taught her. Maybe he'll get in trouble with a higher ranking Faceless Man for letting her go, maybe there are no higher ranking Faceless Men, maybe their rules allow him to make that call. Who knows?

So the thing with Jaqen and the faceless men is they serve the god of many faces. The god of many faces requires sacrifices and even if Arya isn’t officially a faceless man she will still serve the god of many faces by providing those sacrifices in her revenge. Jaqen knows she will give those sacrifices, that’s why he smiled.
@philosofree

I absolutely adore Arya's arc with Jaqen, and find this the perfect conclusion for this chapter in Arya's story. Here's how I see it: Consider the whole situation from Jaqen's point of view. He is training 2 students, Arya and the Waif, into the coldest of cold-blooded killers. Into magically enhanced assassins who will offer names to the many-faced god From his pov, it doesn't matter who wins, he's clearly fine with only 1 student "graduating." Sending the Waif to kill Arya is the final test, for both students. He thinks the Waif will probably win, but Arya does. When Arya returns with the Waif's face, it's clear to Jaqen that she didn't make the cut, so offers the position of "no one" to the superior killer: Arya. Arya: "Did you send her to kill me?" Jaqen: "Yes. But here you are. And there she is. Finally a girl is no one." And Arya's response is, "A girl is Arya stark, of Winterfell blah blah." But the way Arya words it is the exact same as when she took on roles training in the fish market. "A girl is so and so, she is an orphan, she sells oysters to sailors." If you look closely, Jaqen smiles when Arya says her piece, and he lets her go. Because from his point of view, he has succeeded in training a perfect assassin. And like he says to her when first offering to train her, he knows that she will offer many names to the red god, one by one. And so it doesn't matter if she really is or isn't Arya Stark. She's going to Westeros to deal a bunch of death, and to Jaqen, it doesn't matter is she's doing it as an assignment, or to just be a free-roaming faceless man, dealing out justice. It's super ambiguous, and I think it's the perfect setup for whatever's next in Arya's story.

IDK Here is my interpretations of Arya's arc. Arya wanted to become No One like Jaken but Jaken says you are not ready to be No One and really that she will never be No One. I think he is teaching her to believe in herself (not become a No One) and say she is Arya Stark of Winterfell. So Jaken smiles at the fact that she figured it out. This was a test to realize who she is and wants to be. "No One" is not the path but Arya Stark is. My guess anyways. I think the arc could have been done a lot better. A bit too ambiguous.

Doesn't really make any sense. The House of Black and White houses an order of death worshipping cultist assassins for hire. Why would Jaqen dedicate all this time and ressources, and give away the faceless men secrets to Arya ? And even let her get away with killing his protégé ? The beginning of the arc makes some sense because he saw her convincingly pretend to be someone she wasn't, which is a key skill for the faceless men, but the end makes no sense. He should have succeeded in endoctrinating and training her, or killed her. Not trained her up and let her leave.

I have to say that I love that they made Cersei not back down. Really pay attention to when she’s says “I choose violence” she means it. The familiar with Jacken is the same faceless person Arya 1st met with each encounter. He knew exactly what he was doing. He needed to train her and throughout the story every time she countered the faceless woman he had snark/face but always sided with Arya. He saw the fight in her when they first met/ like her father did. If you pay attention throughout the story each men that helped Arya the ones that were around fit enough time resemble characteristics her father had. Sansa on the other hand was had women come to her rescue throughout her entire run mostly. All the men she dealt with harmed her in some way.

It's actually fitting, though, isn't it? The Blackfish didn't need to die, his death *was* meaningless. The castle was already being given over, there was no chance at all of victory. But he chose to fight and die rather than escape with Brienne and Pod because he felt compelled by honor, having run away during the Red Wedding. So him dying off-screen mirrors the pointlessness of his death. He *chose* to have such a death.

I think the Faceless Men arc is only confusing because the writing for this season is poor and the plot armor for characters is firmly in place. It would not be confusing if they actually cared about the writing and tying stories together properly and believably as they did in earlier seasons. They don't care about the world-building and its morals anymore. It's sad rewatching, but I do it for you guys and your great content. :)
