[6.01 The Red Woman](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=791171) [6.02 Home](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=791887) [6.03 Oathbreaker](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=792608) [Book of the Stranger](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=793154) The books do not exist in this thread. [This](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=19282027) is the thread for open discussion about the books and show. One thing I’d like to suggest - if something comes from the previews or future episode descriptions, it would be appreciated if you spoiler boxed it. Those things are put together by marketing people, and not the writers, and can give away things we’d rather know when the writer/editor wanted to, not the marketing team. ---

Interesting origin for the white walkers… So those forest children created them? What for exactly? Talk about an extreme weapon ---

Why would Sansa trust Littlefinger? “Oh, you won’t go with me? Well how about I just tell you something that would make you want to come down my troops anyway.” ---

I’m totally confused as to what happened to both older Hodor and young Hodor. Could either or both time travel like Bran? ---

> [@Emiliana](#): > > I’m totally confused as to what happened to both older Hodor and young Hodor. Could either or both time travel like Bran? Neither. But somehow, Bran became visible and audible to him. Bran “possessed” him…but this time in the past and Hodor hear the attack and the phrase, “Hold the door.” It caused his seizure and his ability only to say “holdthedoor”. ---

What was that spear/weapon the girl threw at a walker and killed? What was that weapon??? ---

Sansa doesn’t trust Littlefinger. Where’d you get that idea? Also, was there a preview? I’m assuming the weapon was made of obsidian. Sam used a dagger of obsidian to kill a White Walker. ---

> [@Emiliana](#): > > I’m totally confused as to what happened to both older Hodor and young Hodor. Could either or both time travel like Bran? No. Bran seemed to be not just seeing the past, but present there in some way. He seems to have funneled what was happening in his present into the past and bent Hodor’s mind back then. ---
