I've got nothing to explain why he didn't target Drogon. That would have ended the series too soon, I guess.

Interesting theory. The White Walkers don't actually raise the dead. They warg the bodies. So once you kill a walker all the zombies go back to being dead.

It was obviously a NK trap. He could have frozen the lake at any time. Why he chose to not go after the much larger and stationary dragon, we will find out later but, it was to his advantage or a part of his plan.

I agree with this. It was a nice touch, though. I didn't notice it.

He had them surrounded. Why waste soldiers when you can just wait for them to starve\freeze\dehydrate to death.

I guess there is a Home Depot/Lowes/Menards north of the wall?

You didn't see the Hardhome Depot?

How much time lapsed between Gendry sending Ravens and Danerys burning wights?

Maybe, I've not read or seen any spoilers this season.

Just thinking it all seemed to be a trap after it was all done. He knew or "saw" like Bran they were coming? Maybe the NK can hear what his things hear or see and was on to their plans the whole time through the captured one.

Who knows for sure?:hmmm:

I hope the Arya-Sansa plot is just a feint and Arya is playing a role to make sure that Littlefinger doesn't have a reason to believe the Stark sisters are ready to murder him.

Really, it would be ****ing choice if Bran had the wherewithal to go "yo girls, Petyr totally sold our dad's ass down the river. It'd be a shame if either of you killed him while the other took his face to take control of the Vale so that they won't waver against the NK's army."

I think Arya is playing littlefinger in a long game. She has no motive or inclination to kill Sansa unless Sansa is a traitor. Nothing we have seen would suggest that.

Arya might have already killed littlefinger and is using his face to find out something or further some kind of plan of hers.

Why not just throw ice spears at them?

Assuming the NK isn't a greenseer, why would he bother?

It's just a handful of douches surrounded on all sides by your army. Save being rescued by dragons, which he wouldn't have known about, there was literally no way they were going to get out of that situation alive.

Just let them die of hypothermia or starvation or wait for the ice to re-freeze so you can swarm them with minions.
