Games Of Thrones Season 7: What 'Beyond The Wall' Really Means

14. Arya Is Legitimately Terrifying

Okay, so this is all getting a little complex. Arya's arc this season has seen her flirt with monstrous darkness - when she killed the Freys (and in that very Hound-like interaction with Hot Pie at the inn) - and then seemingly come back from the edge and find what it meant to be a Stark again.

She was even making friends with Brienne.

Now, thanks to Littlefinger, she's regressed quite badly, and seems to have unwittingly turned into Jaqen Hagar with a side of stone cold Cersei killer in there as well. She made a legitimate threat to Sansa, suggesting there was "no-one to stop" her if she decided to do anything rash and basically putting the fear in Sansa after confronting her about the scroll she sent to Robb.

Naturally - just as Littlefinger hoped - Sansa went straight to him to complain (proving his continued power over her) and he suggested that Brienne could be used to protect her from Arya. When the Big Woman - as she will forever be known by Tormund enthusiasts - finds out about this, she's going to be VERY upset, so it's handy that Sansa decided instead to send her to King's Landing when Cersei sent a letter summoning Sansa south.

Littlefinger is DEFINITELY spying for Cersei, incidentally, as that scroll from Cersei came at way too much of an opportune time, with Sansa vulnerable. And with Brienne heading away, it feels very much like something will happen next episode to turn Arya's anger towards him. And you know what that probably means. Rest in peace, brother snake.
