Then again, Jaqen does eventually return…well sort of. Arya would indeed love to join the Faceless Men of Braavos, but she has lots left to learn and lots left to experience. She pleads, claiming she has no where else to go, but the man answers: “You have everywhere else to go.” The line is definitely chuckle-worthy, because it sounds at first as if he’s basically saying, “Anywhere but here, kid.” But really it’s more about how far Arya has come, and how far she still has to go. When she knocks on the door, a cranky, hooded man answers, but denies that anyone named Jaqen H’ghar is there. Wit of the WeekĪrya has finally made it to The House of Black and White, which floats ominously as its own island alongside Braavos. The episode still suffered from a bit of set-up fatigue, but hopefully now that we’re all clear on where everyone is, where their allegiances lie and who’s aiming for what, the season will be free to take off into the story. PREVIOUSLY: Review: ‘Game of Thrones’ Season 5 Episode 1, ‘The Wars to Come’: Upheaval Reigns Post-“Game” AnalysisĪfter last week’s “Catching up with Westeros” Season 5 premiere, Episode 2 had a bit more action, a bit more intrigue and even some smiles. Among the positive additions were the return of Arya and her hit list, the return of Bronn (whose clothing has gotten way more fancy!) and Varys stuck with Tyrion in a slightly larger box for a trip south on the road to Volantis so they can find their way to Mereen.
