Game of Thrones Season 4: Episode #8 Clip - Sansa's Testimony (HBO) 

Sad really, such is the situation in any world not just Westeros..

tf idiot -_-

Actually, if ony she was honest here, Baelish would've died much earlier.

Roflmao, the only time she SHOULD be honest, she didnt. These people of the Vale would've protected her.

@@kashewz agreed

Sophie's acting of Sansa's acting is quite the thing

She’s perfect always in the entire show.

Absolutely amazing performance from Sophie. Bravo.

😂😂😂😂😂

*Palpatine cackle*

Let the rage flow thru you!

Dew it

Except for the mistake when she says when “aunt” baelish tried to reason with her

⁠@@HiJinx01she said lord baelish

Its why Sansa looked at her

She was probably always intelligent; she was just never taught to value and use that intelligence to her advantage until she reached King's Landing.

I mean thats definitely the big lesson of the Starks' downfall at the beginning of the series. Ned has a very rigid code of honor that's nearly inflexible so he rarely engages in subterfuge, and would never teach his children it. Catelyn definitely isn't above engaging in subterfuge when necessary but she probably assumed her daughters would never need it.

@@slipstreamxr3763this make so much since now to her character development. She was taught the “Stark Way” which was not good to survive in Kings Landing so she adapted and learned.

Too bad its so little... we'll never know... lol.

lmao1

Rick Hasselhoff "Small" miracles, lol.

TeamLexana that AAA battery

*have

That or they could end up being the most powerful couple in Westeros, in love with each other's brilliance xD

Evija3000 I ship them :D

***** Tyrion Tywin is very different. Tyrion didn't outplay him. I'd say he wen't half mad after losing to Tywin completely. Which is almost the opposite. There was no strategy in there... it was pure desperation and luck on Tyrion's part. Though, yes Tywin did make a fatal mistake of underestimating Tyrion and so I somewhat see the comparison. I don't see the Arya's comparison though. She tricks and kills some people, but that's not the same as outplaying a teacher. And I don't think she's ever done that. Margery Cersey - yeah, there I guess I agree. Anyway, yes, the whole thing is cliche, but it could still be delivered it in an interesting or an unusual way. Plus George loves irony =P

Oh man, we all expected so much more out of this :/

@@chef___ Lol, just read my comment and thought "oh, sweet summer child"...

The writing in this show is pretty bad in the later seasons.

It would have been nice to have a later scene between Sansa and Royce where she explains why she lied. But they were rushing towards the finish line in the last two seasons, and things like that sadly where left for us to infer.

Royce hated baelish too much to bring this up.

Because it's clear from this scene that he doesn't believe it but let it go for now...

If you use your brain you can gather from what Sansa accused, which was that Baelish manipulated Lysa and Cat and further tried to manipulate Sansa and Arya. Add to the fact that Petr kissed Sansa, we can assume that was part of the plot to manipulate Lysa into becoming hostile to Sansa which would be his excuse to get rid of her. Obviously she was somewhat under his control at that time because she didn't know these nobles, she trusted him up until he gave her to Ramsay. Obviously Royce knew that all of this, regardless of Sansa's testamony, that Baelish is to blame.

yea only took her 4 seasons to smarten up...only took Arya 1

Emeka Uwazurike Please if Arya was in Sansa's position she would have died within the first week

Emeka Uwazurike Arya had Yoren, Gendry, Jaqen, the Brotherhood and the Hound to help her survive. Until Littlefinger, Sansa was on her own and survived.

ElMango64 Really? What was with tyrion and the hound? With out them she would be already in Season 1 Episode 10 Death after she killed Joffrey.

***** Yeah but she wouldn't have died in vain. She'd have saved a lot of lives there, and possibly halted a war before it really even started, assuming Robb Stark didn't still march south to avenge her. ...That also said, she'd have possibly ended the series prematurely.

Doing what? Sealing her own fate to Ramsey? Rofl.

@@kashewz where could she go??? run away and be no one on an island far away? why would she, a stark, run away? she did what she could.... and it all worked out for her

@@kashewz sansa even says that without ramsay and all the rest she wouldn't have been able to become confident and an independent thinker... yes she went through something horrible but that's life??

@@LilPeachBooty roflmao calm your ass down and stop simping over sansa. the lords of the vale were honorable and would've protected her. they were one of the uncorrupted areas within westeros. so yeah, of all the times not to lie, she chose to lie, then sealed her fate to littlefinger screwing her over to ramsey.

@@kashewz If you think that Sansa would have had a happy ending by being honest, you haven't been paying attention to the show and you have 0/20 hindsight so many years later. The lords and ladies of the Vale always obeyed the rules, always followed the chain of command. You think that they didn't want to fight with Robb back in s2? Ned Stark was their friend! But they stayed put because Robin told them to, or rather because Lysa told them to through Robin. With Lysa dead, who had the best control over Robin? Littlefinger. He could've manipulated Robin into thinking that Sansa was at fault for Lysa's death. Robin was already a murderous brat in the best of moods and he didn’t like Sansa, imagine how unhinged he was after he lost his mother. Would the lords and ladies of the Vale have rescued Sansa from their own liege lord? Not a chance, so she didn't risk it. And even if Robin was out of the picture, Littlefinger had connections in the Vale, Sansa saw that when they made their way to the Eyrie. There's no doubt that Baelish could've escaped his punishment and then become Sansa's enemy. You think that the lords of the Vale could have protected her from poison and backstabbing? No. Keeping Littlefinger in her corner was the smartest decision, and it paid off in later seasons. It's Littlefinger who made the Vale pick a side in the war. Who won the Battle of the Bastard? The Knights of the Vale, because Littlefinger convinced Robin to help Sansa. Yes, he sold Sansa to the Bolton, but getting her Stark name and her home back was better than hiding in the Vale with nothing to her name -- and again, she wouldn't have been safe by becoming Littlefinger's enemy.

Until he gave her to Ramsay which made no sense.

The books had an even better character development, where Sansa was rapidly learning how to play all the nobles in the Vale.

@@kpopggfan2524 Pity they ruined her character later on but yeah, this was great. I'm interested to see how the books turn out though. This part of the story is not over in that yet.

@@neilldn74 right? Im most excited for Sansa's story in Winds of Winter, I wonder if GRRM would ever finish it lol

They were also friends with Ned Stark and one of them apparently visited Winterfell...

Guard655 he is not a lord the guy with lord Royce is a knight his name is Ser Vance Corbray

AH_Brandon well said sir

AH_Brandon Please don't let that happen.

AH_Brandon Are you the real Brandon?

AH_Brandon And he's 46. That's creepy, gross, and I don't want to see it.

***** "no worse than porn" If porn features a 46 year old man and an 18 year old girl, I turn that off. Because it's creepy and gross. Seriously, you're call is "if it exists in porn, it's not gross?" By that logic, NOTHING IN THE WORLD IS GROSS.

The entire plot is set in motion because Sansa is stupid, she tells Cersei Ned's plans because she doesn't want to leave the glamorous capital. And in the books, she IS still stupid and helpless by this point, FYI. Having her actually have, ya know, an ARC is a very welcome change with the show.

Theriot6592 Naivety is not the same as stupidity

Theriot6592 She was a naive little girl with her head in the clouds (just as she was raised to be), no one is arguing with that. The point is that she's grown a lot within the series, it's a very realistic character journey of coming to terms with what the world is actually like. And Ned got himself killed. Why does everyone assume that you haven't read the books if you defend Sansa? Her arc is just slower in the books. Here they've sped it up quite a bit and given her more agency earlier on. Many of the nuances are gone in book vs show with most of the characters.

hee prah Her arc is NONEXISTENT in the books. As of Dance with Dragons, she hasn't gotten one more bit competent. She's still terrified, helpless, and Littlefinger calls all the shots. It's possible George is planning to develop her in the next two books, but you're just assuming that.

Theriot6592 I think you're just missing the subtleties of the writing tbh. There's more to competence than outwardly showing it and taking names. With someone like Littlefinger, you don't even try to call the shots until you're sure you can take him down. She's an unreliable narrator which seems like a defense mechanism more than anything- it's an abusive relationship after all, but she also has moments of lucidity where she questions him. She's growing up and learning from him and changing in the process, a good example is how her reactions to his advances slowly change over time (to more positive ones funnily enough) and it's fairly complex and gradual.

He is very NOT okay with that. I doesn't like being confused about anything.

yes!

The whole thing plays out differently in the books. There is a singer present when Littlefinger pushes Lysa through the door and in the immediate aftermath Littlefinger convinces Sansa to lie for him and tell everyone that it was this singer who did it. It works and this poor chap takes the fall for Lysa's death. In the show I believe the singer accompanied Tyrion and Bronn back to King's Landing in season 2. It's the one Joffrey told to choose between keeping his fingers or his tongue after he was overheard singing a mocking song about Robert Baratheon.

Erik Vartdal Hansen Yes I remember his name was Marillion, it's not a big deal but idk I just think it's something LF would've been ready for.

I agree with you, usually everything LF does is carefully thought out. I actually think they did it this way to show us the new Sansa, that she had learned a few things from all the things she has gone through since her father's death. She knew her best bet was LF and spun a tale that would clear him of any wrongdoing.

It's not a spoiler, it's foreshadowing. You just made it a spoiler by acknowledging it as one for all the TV viewers that haven't read the book.

I really doubt they're going to keep that death scene the way it is in the books. It simply wouldn't work on screen.

Theriot6592 i wonder why not

onciblu But it would be really distracting and frankly hilarious, not heavy and dramatic.

she will be queen of the vale, not north

But she can be Queen in the North, too. She's Robb's heir and heir of Winterfell, after the "death" of Bran and Rickon. She has birth right. She can be Queen of the Vale only by marriage with Robin.

Game of thrones on the surface is indeed a fantasy show, but in its core it has always been a political drama. D&D couldn't see this and absolutely butchered this show.

She won't die I think....She will become queen one day of some independent kingdom probably of "the North"

@@singhstermedia9723 lol

@@singhstermedia9723 🤣

The Bolton story arc gets very confusing. Its handled much better and differently in the books. The Ironborn storyline is also far more interesting in the books. Euron is reduced to a bumbling idiot in the show.

@@co94 I don’t even get why they have euron in the show, they could literally just delete the iron born storyline and nothing would’ve changed s8. we could’ve had the northern conspiracy and the vale arc with an actual good send off to petyr baelish and sansa stark development

she's lying to herself, if she thinks she didn't get her parents killed and her brother robb, when her father wanted to decamp to winterfell, and the twat wanted to remain at king's landing, after joffery had revealed himself to be a cunt, and got her direwolf killed along with an innocent farmboy.

Emil Lönnqvist he is sitting with ser vance of house Corbray a skilled warrior.

You have to look for it, not sure why the GOT channel hasn't uploaded it but it's on RU-vid

On hbo

or Facebook i know

As long as they don't put the spoiler in the title then there's nothing to worry about, people who don't want to be spoiled simply just shouldn't watch the video, at least they haven't posted a video where the title explains the outcome of the trial. And if people are so desperate to not be spoiled they can always watch it online before the uk 9pm showing.

Dear Jeff, this is a ’Murica-centric channel, run by a ’Murica-centric TV channel (as we all could experience a week ago). Just make sure not to watch those videos right now. Just do it tomorrow. PS. it’s not GMT, it’s actually BST right now. (and the Universe has replaced 'GMT' with 'UTC' ages ago, for the matter…)

why would you watch a video with "Season 4: Episode #8" written in the title if you haven't watch the episode yet?... genius

Or they just expect you Brits and Europeans to watch it online the same day it airs in the US... lol.

Why would anyone bother to come on youtube with show having aired already across the ocean and knowing the potential to be spoiled? That's like playing with fire then getting upset you got burned, who is to blame here?
