Can't decide whether she is very very naïve, very very stupid or just an Annie Hall "Oh well, la-dee-dah!" type. :smile:
I could understand that but the conversation they were having was how would they know it was the end. And he looked at his hand that was burning and said You'll Know.
In Season 3 there was a scene between Vary's and Margery Tyrells Grandmother the "Queen of Thorns". Vary's says to her "Littlefinger would let all of Westeros burn if that meant he could rule it" or something along those lines. I thought that line was very telling. Seems like Vary's is the only one who know what Littlefinger is up too!
Personnally, I think believe Vary's when he stated "Everything I do is for the Realm".

The only evidence was Littlefinger telling her it was Tyrions, too. Keep that in mind, just more Chaos for his plans.
I think his intent was too bring Ned down and make Catelyn a widow and Lysa was just the means to the end. He probably just gave her too much credit and assumed that she wouldn't bring down a self-destructive storm on herself and family and instigate full scale war between Stark and Lannister. Maybe his only poor play so far but he seems to have adapted well.
I've thought about that, too - but it also implies that LF somehow knew that Robert would make Ned the Hand if Arryn died. At the beginning of the series, this thought didn't enter Ned's mind as a possibility until he heard Robert was going to visit.
I took it as him seeing his future. He spoke of Bran, but when the conversation turned to others he got quiet and didn't answer. I took that to mean that he will be burned before Bran reaches the three eyed crow.
Littlefinger could have had Jon Arryn killed to keep Robert from learning about Joffrey's true lineage to keep the Lannisters in power who were funding the realm. He was master of coin at the time.
Possible - except Littlefinger wasn't financing government activities (such as Ned Stark's tournament) through the Lannisters. He was financing it through the Iron Bank of Braavos(?), which is why King's Landing is heavily in debt to them.
I truly think it was Littlefinger wanted the North (Starks) and South (Lannisters) to destroy each other in civil war, creating a power vacuum, giving him a chance to rule over the ashes. And this might have actually had a chance of working if not for the Red Wedding, which destroyed the Starks without nearly touching the Lannisters enough.

Little Finger just continues to be awesome. That scene last night was one of the best since his Chaos speech. I've said it before, but I really hope at the end of all of this he is really left ruling the ashes of everything.
Since I work on Sunday nights I didn't get a chance to watch the episode until tonight.
I think it's a testament to the quality of the episode and the series in general that I didn't realize that we didn't see any of Tyrion until the end credits. Really good episode.
On a random note, in a guilty way I enjoyed the character of Karl, as evil and depraved as he was. It's interesting to see that the same actor played a geeky scientist in Pacific Rim last summer (great underrated movie, BTW) and then a completely opposite character in Karl, who was really a total BAMF until getting a sword through the head.

Ha, did a second watch of GoT tonight and rewatched Pacific Rim too and didn't put together this was the same actor until your posting. Interesting.
He was also in the first couple of seasons of Torchwood (for the Doctor Who fans out there)
I know this is getting derailed by me but I must speak. Pacific Rim was ****. I loved the giant robots brought to life, but the whole story and acting was turrible.
On another note, I can't remember but what bastard gave Jon Snow his sword?

Geor Mormont gave it to him when he saved him from the wight that attacked him in his chambers. It was supposed to go to Jorah but he was exiled from Westeros for slavery
Think of this...
Jamie tries to kill Bran, Locke cuts off Jamie's hand, Bran kills Locke. WTF, this show is insane.
