    Looks like I was wrong, and Sansa is just always gonna be a victim. Le sigh.

    It's pretty lame to always demand the same stale innocent-maturity through hardship-triumphant story arc. Sansa can both always be the victim and have interesting character development.

    I agree, but I think the helpless victim story arc is even worse. I had some high hopes that she was doing all this as just some sort of plan, and it turns out shes still just helplessly going from day to day. Id rather see her try and save herself and fail than be forever abused.

    Huh. Im starting to sound like someone who is upset that an abused wife stays with her husband :/ Its cool that the show is making me mimic that feeling.

    Life isn't fair. GoT actually shows you something realistic for a change. There's a reason why it's the most popular show,
