Will the Frey's not turn on the Bolton's as they killed one of his many daughters, or will that be explained as a "poisoning" as well I don't think Walder Frey cares about any of his children tbh. He would care about the insult, though.
That said, I think Walda's death will be explained as a death in childbirth.

I hope you're right about Frey! I know he was included in the season trailer, but I just can't see how he's going to come back into the fold? He's so far away from Jon and Sansa, and are they really going to abandon the wall and the war against the White Walkers to avenge their brother and mother? I thought maybe Little Finger could get involved and finish him off since he was so in love with Cat, and also he now commands the soldiers of the vale who as far as I can tell have been pretty much untouched so far as they haven't left their homelands and no one's attacked them. But saying that, did the Hill Tribe warriors ever get to launch an attack on them with the weapons the Lannisters gave them?? I think stuff will be going on at Riverrun this season, which is where we'll see Walder Frey as he's the lord now. We might even find out what happened to Edmure, Mrs Edmure and Blackfish, if he's finally finished his loo break
How the Starks come into it, I'm not quite sure. But if Blackfish is still alive and returns to avenge his sister and nephew, that'd be cool.

Did anyone else think Lord Greyjoy's brother was actually a figment of his own imagination and not real? They'd just been saying 'the dead will never die' or something and then his long-lost supposedly dead brother reappears! All quite intriguing Oooh, interesting. I'm pretty convinced Euron is alive though: the 'what is dead may never die' phrase is just a common saying among the adherents of the Drowned God. They seem to mention it every time they talk about someone who's dead (which is quite often!)

I have to say that scene was the most unbelieving, would Bolton's men really support Ramsay, you could see it with the sand snakes, but not so much at the Bolton's. Karstark Jr. seems like a nasty, vindictive and not very intelligent man. After Robb's treatment of his father I can just about believe he's prepared to back Ramsay as Ramsay is interested in marching on Castle Black to kill Jon Snow, which would appeal to Karstark as I guess he wants to see the Starks wiped out. However, support for the Boltons was based on Sansa's marriage to Ramsay alongside the belief that Bran and Rickon are dead. I don't think all of the Bolton banners will support Ramsay if they know that a) he's lost Sansa, and b) there are still other Starks out there who could reclaim Winterfell.
For book readers, I think I heard Ramsay mention the name Manderly which is VERY interesting! I wonder if we'll get to see Lord Too-fat-to-sit-a-horse in the show...

Oh gosh, how strange would it be seeing Black Fish make a sudden reappearance!? Would have any idea who he is? Or Edmure for that matter!
But saying that, they do need to do something about those loose ends eventually. Fairly big plot holes if they don't.

It was interesting that they brought him up in the last episode of Season 5 and then there he was again in Bran's vision! I'm not sure if we'll see him again - there are some theories, many of them pretty crazy - but I hope we will get some answers this season.

I want to know why Benjen was sent to the wall... Do we know he was sent rather than a volunteer? Didn't Ned at some point say that the Stark's have always had a presence at the wall?

So has anyone seen the theories regarding why Hodor can no longer talk, crazy, crazy, but nothing crazier than what we've already witnessed I guess

And an amazing third episode as well! The pace just isn't slowing down!! I guess giving the show creators the freedom of not being bound by the books allows them to produce episodes like this every week. Hope it continues!
