GeorgeIAF Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Stop talking about Lady Stoneheart, i don't think that reviving Catelyn was a good idea from GRRM, she should have stayed dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WheelofIceandFire Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 Ive just been reading one of the casting/speculation threads and a man named Joss and a terminally ill son are mentioned. Its possible they go to the HoBaW. Does anyone think that Arya will be ordered to give the 'gift' to the son? I think that is likely given that this episode is called the Gift, but im still not sure why she isnt mentioned in the synopsis if the episode refers to her storyline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lady Lannister Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I think the gift is going to be presented at the Wedding Feast, a (fat Walder) Frey-Bolton pie. You mean Fat Walda? Even as careless a husband, as Roose Bolton, would notice if his wife went missing. But then again, there are not other Freys in WF... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robasp2 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 The Gift is surely the place adjacent to the wall. To the south of it.The question is why would it be the title BEFORE hardhome? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the south of it.The question is why would it be the title BEFORE hardhome?thats why i dont think the title actually refers to that 'Gift'. Plus, they already featured the Gift in season 3 didnt they (where Bran and co are in the windmill and Jon escapes from Wildlings?) It will most likely refer to the gift of mercy and may tie in to another storyline where someone is given a gift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intheswamp Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Stannis captures Yara. Mel wants to give her as a "gift" to her god. Stannis thinks she's more valuable alive and refuses. Mel returns to the Wall. This is why Stannis is called "stubborn" in the episode description. Ghost is confirmed having stuff to do in this episode. Maybe, Jon is revealed to have a "gift" for warging, possibly by Mel who returns to the Wall. Maybe we get the Mel, Jon, and Ghost scene from the book. Mel probably tells him his trip to Hardhome will go bad during this discussion. She offers him help. Of course, he refuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Friendzone Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Jon will let wildlings thourgh the Wall and give them a land(Sam mentioned it in the previous episode),Arya's gift of mercy.MAybe something disturbing in Winterfell arc like Fat Walda pie...you know gift from Ramsay. Stannis captures Yara. Mel wants to give her as a "gift" to her god. Stannis thinks she's more valuable alive and refuses. Mel returns to the Wall. This is why Stannis is called "stubborn" in the episode description. Ghost is confirmed having stuff to do in this episode. Maybe, Jon is revealed to have a "gift" for warging, possibly by Mel who returns to the Wall. Maybe we get the Mel, Jon, and Ghost scene from the book. Mel probably tells him his trip to Hardhome will go bad during this discussion. She offers him help. Of course, he refuses. Do we know,that Yara is in this season?I haven't heard anything on the matter.I wouldn't be suprised,if Mell will see something in the flames Hardhome Jon,NK,WW and stuff.That might be enough for her to return,but it's tough to predict her intentions at this point.It would be bad for to just hang around Castle Black and waiting for Jon.Truly interesting and same goes for Davos.What the hell is he gonna do for the rest of the season.

JetonGrajqevci Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Having just seen episode 6, most of the speculation about the meaning of "The Gift" makes sense. We got a hint of Sam being scared away from Castle Black in the episode 7 preview, meaning I still stand by my speculation that we will have a scene of Sam walking on the fields of The Gift in this episode. I still think Arya will kill Meryn Trant who should be in Braavos by now but that might also be delayed to coincide with Sam reaching Braavos. However, not so sure about Jorah bringing Tyrion as a gift to Daenerys anymore seeing as they seem to be heading straight to the fighting pits now.

Drogonthedread Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 tyrion will be gifted to hizdar by yezzan ...or dany will claim is as a gift like missandei because he is a dwarf and cant fight in the fits now after seeing it promo i think dany is absent from this episode ...which is strange because she has always appeared eight episodes in a season and if she is absent then it will make seven episodes ...which is weird because she along with jon and cersei are the ones with most chapters to cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Emberheart Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 These titles ALWAYS have multiple meanings to them. What I suspect: Arya deals the gift of death.and, Arya glances at where she kept Needle, made to become blind for that mistake, learning she has the gift to warg,and, featuring the area near the wall named 'the Gift',and, Dany is given a gift at the pits, Jorah and Tyrion.These kind of episode titles don't deal with or this, or that. They are usually a case of and this, and that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallam Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 After Arya gave the gift yesterday, it looks like she s going to be giving it to Trant this coming episode. I noticed that in the show they have not mentioned any sort of ban on freelance killing or contract killing people you know. In the book that part is a little ambiguous. It seems to me that you get ahead in the training at the HoBaW by killing people. So killing Trant is fair game. She will go blind afterwards but that is part of her training. I agree that it is likely that there is another meaning to 'The Gift' and it might involve Sansa who has to escape from Winterfell in episode 7,8 or 9 if Jon is going to get his stabby-stabby in episode 10. We are clearly going to see a big Stannis vs Bolton battle in either episode 7 or 9. Given that we have the big pit scene in episode 9, it would make sense to have that battle in episode 7 which can take place in the Gift. That leaves Brienne free to kill Stannis in episode 9.

earth127 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 there's no Arya in the preview, usually the preview shows every soryline we'll get in the episode. in this case Stannis, wall, KL and WF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lady Lannister Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 After having seen episode 6, I think we'll likely see Theon asking for the gift in the godswood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyNic Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Wouldn't surprise me to see Cersei "gifted" to the Faith and/or the Tyrells in terms of being accused of fornification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bironic Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 There is a new preview out for episode 7: http://www.westeros.org/GoT/Episodes/Entry/The_Gift Short Summary: Jon & Tormund leave for Hardhome, Stannis marches through the snows, Sansa seeks out Theon, some fighting scenes & Tyrion looking up to someone, Olenna & The High Sparrow, Margaery imprisoned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonsastronk Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yep, from those previews she is definitely not appearing. Sigh. I thought an episode titled "The Gift" would be a sign but I guess not. Thanks, D&D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masha Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I think Maester Aemon dies in this episode (based on peak of funeral pyre and Thorne gloating at Sam). So I think "The Gift" will be something that he talks about before dying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverscream Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 According to recapped.com (which has already been proven trustworthy this season), Dany should appear in this episode so her trend of 8 appearances per season should be safe. But I think it's safe to say that Arya's not in this episode. We already know that the scene with Meryn appears in episode nine, so there's no need to speculate that it's going to happen this episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
