S7E6 GOT Sansa finds out that Arya is a faceless man

[kavinkumarfire]

Sansa at castle black : JON.... it's good to see you again.
Jon : I just died and came back to life.
Sansa at winterfell : BRAN....thank god you are alive.
Bran : I am three eyed
Sansa : ARYA... at least you are normal.
Arya : I am no one.
Sansa :(

If I was a faceless man, I’d definitely hide my gear in a super secret, super hidden, super secure location like under the bed.

Not the nicest way to explain your new job to your sister, but certainly effective.

The beauty of this scene is that if Arya wanted to kill Sansa, she could have right there. by handing her the knife, she was telling Sansa she had no intention of killing her or taking her place. That's why, when Littlefinger tried to convince her that Arya wanted to kill her and become "Lady of Winterfell" it rang false to her. So of course, her next step was to consult the Encyclopedia Bran-tanica to get the truth. Then it was all over for littlefinger.

If Arya wanted Sansa dead, she'd be dead. But what's even better is that not only did she hand her the knife, she immediately turned her back to her. That's a huge show of trust for someone like Arya.

Translation: "Stay the hell out of my room!"

[Blackdragonomfg]

There is a depth to this. Arya knows the walls are listening. She’s not intimidating Sansa, she’s intimidating spies whilst pretending Sansa is her target. Handing Sansa the knife is a silent oath of loyalty. “My blade is Yours”

Arya just declared her allegiance. Told Sansa WHY she left the Faceless men behind.

[KingSadim]

Anyone else notice that Sansa showed more apprehension around Arya than she did when around Cersei who really was her enemy. Such was Arya’s effect on people. Even the hound was wary of her and he feared nobody.

I never noticed how Arya actually continues playing the game of faces. She answers Sansa with a lie good enough to make her believe it. And also lets her see she has no intent of killing her at the same time. Genius move.

[richarddouglas]

"I wonder what it would feel like to wear those pretty dresses. To be the lady of Winterfell."

I just realized rewatching this that Arya was playing the Game of Faces when she said these lines. She was lying. She's never wondered either of those things.

[maggiesmith]

Since Arya knew Baelish was trying to make the two sisters distrust each other ( he thought he was playing her but she was actually playing him), this conversation was staged for the benefit of his spies. The Stark girls were running the Long Con.

[dustinsanity]

The realistic fear in Sansa's eyes is palpable. That's great acting.

[redrust]

All she really wanted to do was be a little girl, but they kept trying to kill her...

[LaughableSynonyms]

Thus ends the Tale of Littlefinger.

Mans was so competent, it took royalty, a faceless man and the three-eyed raven to bring him down.

[tovekauppi]

Arya spells out in the beginning that she is playing the game of faces. She makes the lie (that she wants to become lady of Winterfell and thinks killing Sansa is an acceptable price to pay to get there) sound like the truth. That’s it. That’s the game.

[cadenrolland]

And Sansa never snooped around anyone's ever room ever again.

[Jade]

Handing the dagger and turning her back on Sansa was her way of telling her: “I trust you. Trust in me.” Sansa could have killed her right there and then. As for the masks: she knew Sansa would find them. She wanted her sister to know the truth.

[ronanwalsh]

You have to go back to the swordfight between Brieanne and Arya for the answer to this, Arya looks up to balcony where Little finger and Sansa are standing and immediately you see Arya's face darken as she stares him down. She knows that he is manipulating Sansa so Arya gives Sansa a jolt of reality.... Sansa knows that Arya doesn't want to be Lady of Winterfell so the confrontation is a reality check for her, she realises that Arya puts family first and is concerned that she... Sansa is too close to Little finger. Handing her the dagger is basically saying " get real woman, stand with your family and don't let anyone divide it.... you know what you need to do". Arya gave Sansa a few serious home truths.

Sansa's diary that day
Today I made Arya mad. I need a change of pants...

[johnmazzoni]

Nope all she was saying was that she’s now an assassin and has no designs on being head of winterfell
