His wight dream reminded me of that time Frodo put on the ring to hide from the wraiths but got stabbed anyways.

Everything in the north this episode reminded me of Fellowship of the Ring. I expected the Child of the Forest to yell "You shall not pass!" at the wight horde. I mean, they even had wights scrambling down the walls and ceiling of the tunnel, very reminiscent of the goblins chasing the heroes in whatever that dwarf city was called that I can't be bothered to look up.
Did anyone else think that Baelish was just flat out lying about Riverrun? I'm not sure to what end, but I certainly didn't take that timely bit of information at face value.
And I need to re-watch the episode where Varys unboxes the wizard from the earlier seasons. I want to compare his description of that ritual to the one the fire priestess recounted to him in this episode.
