I was a bit disappointed by Sansa. I thought she'd finally become a bit more assertive, taking control over her own fate a bit more proactively lately. Yet she has to be cajoled along by Theon to run for her life, to save herself. During the fight between Bolton's men and Brienne, she just cowers and whimpers.

I was hoping she'd finally be a bit less passive, show some fire. If hounds running after you to bring you back to your torturer of a husband isn't enough to jolt you into action, then what is?

Maybe being paired up with Brienne now, who is pretty much the exact opposite of her, will teach her some things. In any case, that pairing is gonna be interesting.

Really sad about Doran's death. We haven't seen much of him, but I liked him, and the Sand Snakes ruling is really bad news for everyone. They had to kick off the season with some gruesome deaths to stay true to their reputation, it seems.
