Okay just because something happens in same episode of Games of Thrones just not mean that it is happening at the same time as everything else in that episode. So when Arya whacked the Waif and then cuts the throat of Walder Frey in the next show does not mean she teleporter across the sea. Since she could have killed the Waif a month prior and then travelled to so that she can get in with the Frey's and kill them. The same goes for Littlefinger. Things are happening but just not at the same time. |

Or it is just lazy/bad writing. Excellent show otherwise so I let it slip. |

It's called the Narrow Sea. that's how Arya got from Braavos to … Saltpans? Then she gets on the Autobahn that Aegon the Road Builder made. It's Littlefinger who has the transporter. |

it's not a transporter… it's a jetpack. |

She has many abilities….. I am reminded of Senor Vivo in Louis de Bernieres South American trilogy who was able to cover vast distances very quickly by walking very slowly:) |

Sorry, nothing beats Lord Varys leaving Mereen Ep. 6-9, showing up in Dorne an episode later, then later that same episode appearing on the deck of Dany's flagship as it heads BACK to Westros. I would live with that A--B without much of a problem, but the B--C is ridiculous. And moreover, it's needless. They just had to have everyone together for their group shot. |

The flipside is the Speeding Sloth award, which goes to Osha & Rickon. They parted ways from Bran & Co., to find shelter with, who, Lord Manderly? Suddenly, three seasons later, they are presented to newly self-appointed Lord Ramsay Bolton by Smalljohn Umber. If captured anywhere near the Umber territory, they were either held captive at Last Hearth for a very long time, or they were riding three-legged tortoises to White Harbor. |

In a TV series this big I am willing to accept that certain things happen off screen. We don't have a precise time line or calendar for events. How long has Dany been in Meereen, months? Years? We simply don't know. Are events contemporaneous, again we don't know. Cersei desperately wants to get her hands on Sansa, who she believes was complicit in Joffrey's death. But does she not know that Sansa is alive and has married the Lannister approved "Warden of the North"? She hasn't ordered the Boltons to turn her over nor has she ordered Jaime to head North to collect her. Or is it that we are seeing one time line in King's Landing and another in the North? After all, it's winter in the North, yet still Fall, maybe even late summer in King's Landing (in the books when winter comes to King's Landing it snows there). Or maybe Varys, Littlefinger, and a few others have a Tardis. Man it must be a pain getting all those Dothraki horses in a Tardis! |
