Not sure if they would do more North or Dany bits but hard to know.
Lets see - Jamie is heading home - unless they just do a time skip and he is back.
Could do a Brienee bit - maybe she wonders into the Brothers without Banners camp.
We really need the Mountain to fulfill his potential I feel - bit of a let down so far.
The wildfyre theory seems possible - could kill off half the cast and one location if they want to cut the budget ?
Perhaps its a epsiode just focussing on the exciting lives of those on still alive in Dorne - maybe not.
MY speculation:
Jamie meets with Walder Frey - Frey Pies incoming-
Arya Returns and wears a mask while doing so. Maybe to kill someone?
Hound scene being a badass
Jon becomes the KINGINDANORF
Jon Kills Littlefinger
Sansa Marries again.
Dany leaves Mereen with targ banners high. And tyrion quips a one liner for the end season
Jon kills Mel
Cersei murders everyone "I am no dragon!" While locking the Mountain inside the sept of baleor and killing alot of people.
Pycelle will probably die. After all the gak he has done, there are a lot of people that need to die.
Varys meets with the Sand Snakes.
Winter is signalled with the white ravens. And we hear the music called winter is come.
-End-
Just pure speculation on my part.

Would have thought Davos is the one to have a word with Mel?
Need more Pycelle now we have lost Ramsey - they would have been a fun team.
Hmm See what you mean about Varis and Sand Snakes - would make sense - but don't envy him.
I like the idea of the Faith Militant being locked inside with the Mountain - hope its not just they close the door on the scene. lets see him go to work.

Its been along theory that the Manderlys or the northern conspiracy serving dead frey's in pies to the Frey family. It has been talked about before during the rat cook.
“ The best pie you have ever tasted, my lords. Wash it down with Arbor gold and savor every bite. I know I shall.[1] ”

The Frey Pies Theory is that Wyman Manderly killed the three Freys (Rhaegar, Symond, and Jared) who disappeared on the way from White Harbor to Winterfell and baked them into the three huge meat pies he brought for Ramsay Bolton's wedding at Winterfell.

AH right - although there was no Northern Conspiracy - well he'll be alright as long as there are no brains in them - thats could give you Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease -w ell according to the X Files.
I think you might get Aryra turning up at some point to deal with him.......gives her something to do as most of her targets are likely to be dead by the time she gets home.
So do we think Davos will burn Mel or just accuse her and have Sansa execute her?

Good point!
I think Arya is definitely going to be aiming for Lord Frey - whether or not she makes it there this season though...

I think she well get executed by Jon, and his sword will catch on fire.

Did you just refer to yourself in the third person?!?
Impressive body count!
And was Sansa not happy at the turn of events in the North?
Or was she happy, and happy to thwart Littlefinger's aspirations?
I couldn't tell!
Her expressions...it could go either way!
Overall though?
Awesome!
Can't wait for...April 2017?
Sansa is thinking that Littlefinger is going to have to either betray/abandon Jon in order to take the Iron Throne...

To me it almost seemed like a series of thoughts: From "that's right, this didn't go like you planned" to "or did it" and then "remember, don't trust anyone".

I don't think she trusts or particularly cares for Littlefinger so I think she is pleased with the outcome.

Also, how the feth the did Varys get from Dorne to Meereen that fast.
I mean, I'm all for expedited traveling in the show but that was a little ridiculous.

Alot of time has passed considering the battlefield where the battle happened is completely cleaned. Plus there is snow on the ground and the previous episode there was no snow. Must of been over a few weeks.
And yes Asherian did refer to himself in the third person. Is Asherian wrong to say such things?
NAY! ASHERIAN SAYS NAY!

Enough time for all the households of the North to assemble at Winterfell. For Jaime to get from the Riverlands to Kings Landing. So yeah, weeks at a bare minimum. As for Arya, well they call it the Narrow Sea for a reason. Varys... well... we don't really have an idea that the Mereen storyline is happening at the same pace as the rest of the story.
Edit: But seriously everyone. That was a master piece of an episode. Can we wait more then 5 minutes to start picking it apart? This is why we can't have nice things...

I think that even though it's a good thing that the show is wrapping up storylines and moving people were they need to be despite the plot holes, it also makes me realize why Martin is spending all this time writing himself into corners while trying to organically move them where they need to be for the story to continue.

Very impressed with your predictive skills sir!
I'm just glad I didn't read this until after the episode.
My take on Sansa's look towards Littlefinger was that she was okay/satisfied with Jon being King in the North, but realizing that it meant that Littlefinger would now be coming after him because ultimately he has to die for Littlefinger's dream to become a reality. I guess we'll only find out where her true loyalties lay next season. And of course it would be interesting to see how/if Bran's return would change things, especially if he were to share who Jon's real father was.
Anwyay, overall another amazing episode. This was, by far, IMHO the best season of GoT. If this is 'lazy writing' then I say please bring more of it on.
I am glad we all agree, the entire ceresi series of scenes was incredible it was the equivalent of shakespeare even better than the red wedding the music the tone, fit perfectly. The music was both gothic, somber and showed the evil of Cersei, I hope Sansa or Dany kills Cersei
Sad to see Margery die though, the hottest girl on the show :(
Sansa please live.....
I am just hoping someone takes her down a peg next season.
