Game Of Thrones Season 6: 10 Big Questions We're Asking After 'The Broken Man'

6. Will Arya Kill The Waif?

Game of Thrones Arya Waif
HBO

After rejecting the chance to become a Faceless Men, Arya is attempting to book passage home to Westeros this week, and foolishly lets her guard down. Approached by an old woman - "sweet girl" - she turns, pauses, and is then stabbed in the stomach before throwing herself off the bridge.

Thankfully she does eventually emerge from the water, but then wanders through the streets of Braavos with no one helping the poor bleeding girl. However, this is Arya Stark, and we know she's going to survive, but it's how it happens that will be interesting.

Once the Waif realises she hasn't died then she will be after her again, and the fact that she can take on almost any face makes it even harder for Arya to avoid her. That means the two will probably have to face off (no pun intended...) again, but will Arya be able to kill her when the time comes?
