I know the show wants us to think how horrible the Sparrows and rearmed Faith are, but I can't help but cheer the closing of the brothels--even if I disagree with the way gone about it, because it means HBO has far less resources to do gratuitous nudity with. Hate me, sure, but it was getting old, tired, and rather ridiculous by Season 3 with Pod the Rod, Whorepleaser.

Still marks me as strange that Littlefinger went to the Tourney of Harrenhal in show universe. Especially when you consider that Hoster didn't--though I guess in this universe, he did. :/

Odd, at the end of Season 4, Tormund says that "the dead can't hear you", while here, Littlefinger mentions it (I know it's also a saying, but still, putting that to the side for a moment). It makes me wonder at the differences in culture.

I wonder why that particular prostitute is always focused upon, and what she herself gets out of working with the Sons of the Harpy.
Is SHE the Harpy? Because, you know, that actually would be a twist that might make sense. I'm not sure it would in the books, but in the show it might. After all, looking for a male leader of the Harpy, who is a female deity seems counter-intuitive. A female leader makes more sense, and if she's a noble girl who's been forced to slum it thanks to Dany's new world order--even more reason to call her "sons" in her defense.
And it's almost like that prostitute herself is like Meereen--made to slum and consort with the invaders, brought low and humiliated by a foreign conqueror, but clawing her way back up through killing.
