at the same time, to have a "grumkins and snarks" attitude after already witnessing confirmed magic is silly.
it's reasonable that she didn't just take a stranger's word for it, but stupid for her to be all like:

Yeah, I thought she was supposed to have learned these mystical skills like a ninja. But Littlefinger saw right through her.
The way he smirked at Arya's fighting, I wonder if once upon a time he was on the path to becoming "No One". Remember, he has a family history at Braavos.The faces sure would be useful in gathering intel..
Honestly Littlefinger is starting to annoy me. What is his purpose now? What could his goals possibly be? Back when the series started and Westeros was divided into numerous rivaling factions, it made sense for his "chaos is a ladder" manipulations. But now, with the Westeros war about to come to a ceasefire and the incoming White Walker invasion, there don't seem to be a lot of places where chaos can be sewn and power can be gained. His plot with Arya is a desperate last ditch effort to gain Sansa's trust back. Besides Sansa, he has no major Northern allies, Cersei wants him dead, and with Tyrion and Varys advising Damy, there's no way Little finger can manipulate her. So after 7 seasons of jumpstarting the plot and scheming to have it all, Littlefinger has ended up essentially trapped at the Wall as a notoriously untrustworthy advisor to Sansa. For all his ladder climbing, he seems to be nothing more than an obsolete cog.

End game could have him riding a dragon in to the white walker horde.
It's going to be very interesting to see what Sam does considering his best friend's new ally just burned Sam's family alive.
Nobody's mentioned
Spoiler:? I feel like that was the big reveal for the episode. This episode was filled with a lot of gut-wrenching moments, despite being "slow" by this season's standards. My favorite was Tyrion trying to repair his relationship with Jaime. You could feel the regret.
the baby
I don't expect the ceasefire to work. Should make for some exciting chaos though. The Jon/dragon scene felt a bit out of nowhere, though I understand why it had to happen. And they're being a little bit too fan-servicey on occasion with references to fan theories ("I thought you might still be rowing" and also the casual annulment tease) and playing on the "shipping" tendencies of the internet (Dany's ever-growing friend zone is basically a meme by now). But it's hard to knock the show when it doesn't seem to have time for unimportant scenes (i.e. the time-filler segments that occasionally plagued past seasons). Always something to excite.
