4. Sansa and Arya will band together

Say what you will about Arya creeping the living daylights out of Sansa basically every single time they have a conversation. That scene in Ned and Catelyn Stark’s old bedroom definitely left Sansa with chills down her spine, and not just because it’s Winterfell and basically always cold up there.

And now that Arya’s broken into Littlefinger’s room and found what looks to be a letter from Sansa that might be a forgery or otherwise something that Littlefinger clearly thinks he can use for leverage somehow, we think that Sansa’s going to choose her sister — her very weird sister, granted, but her sister nonetheless — over a man that she has some serious grievances with even if they’re on the same side. Sophie Turner talked about the importance of Sansa’s remaining relations in the off-season, and it might just start paying off now.

Spoilers:

The gossip puts it that Arya and Sansa are going to work together not just to oppose Littlefinger, but to possibly do something more … permanent. Fans of the show suggest that it’s going to happen later, but we’ve already had scenes that didn’t appear in the preview happen in episodes already this season.
