Game of Thrones Screencap Breakdown: “The Broken Man”

Sansa does not want to accept the fighting host as it is. But Jon’s not having it. You go to war with the army you have, not the army you wish you had. No wonder he was such a good leader at the Wall.

However, the army they have is already fighting amongst itself like drunken louts.

Dan already broke down the letter Sansa wrote—again, note the emphasis on those who are making things happen by writing. Here is the assumed contents:

You promised to protect me. Now you have a chance to fulfill your promise. The Knights of the Vale are under your command. Ride north for Winterfell. Lend us your aid and I shall see to it that you are rewarded.

While Sansa is fighting against reality, Brother Ray is refusing to acknowledge it…

…even if it costs his people their lives.

The Hound is worried, but will not stop him. He wants to believe.
