WINTERFELL - DAY
Two men sit on horses on a hill outside Winterfell. They carry flags bearing the flayed man sigil of House Bolton.
RAMSAY (V.O.): She was 11 the first time I saw her.
CUT TO: WINTERFELL - ROOM
MYRANDA's body lies on a table.
RAMSAY: The kennelmaster's daughter. She smelled of dog. I wasn't much older, but everybody was already afraid of me. You certainly were.
RAMSAY turns and looks at MAESTER WOLKAN, then looks back at MYRANDA's body..
RAMSAY: Myranda wasn't, though. What could I do to her that those hounds couldn't? She was fearless. There was nothing she wouldn't do.
RAMSAY stands and places his hand on MYRANDA's forehead.
RAMSAY: Your pain will be paid for a thousand times over. I wish you could be here to watch.
RAMSAY looks as though he is going to cry.
"Huh! I didn't think someone like him knew about love?" Robb said
"It's not love more like his favourite toy was destroyed by someone other than him. He doesn't beleive in love" Aemon said
MAESTER WOLKAN: Shall I have a grave dug for her, my lord? Or would you rather the men build a pyre?
RAMSAY: Buried, burned?
RAMSAY walks past MAESTER WOLKAN as he exits the room.
RAMSAY: This is good meat. Feed it to the hounds.
"See! Ramsay is a psychopath you can't think of him like a normal human" Aemon explained
"God, he is truly disgusting" Sansa said as she wrinkled her nose.
WINTERFELL - HALLWAY
RAMSAY is walking with ROOSE.
ROOSE: Your command of the cavalry was impressive. Thanks to you, the false king Stannis Baratheon is dead. Do you know who struck the killing blow?
RAMSAY: No.
ROOSE: A shame. I'd reward the man. Still, a great victory. Do you feel like a victor?
RAMSAY and ROOSE stop walking. RAMSAY looks back over his shoulder at ROOSE.
ROOSE: I rebelled against the crown to arrange your marriage to Sansa Stark. Do you think that burning wagons in the night and mowing down tired, outnumbered Baratheons is the same as facing a prepared and provisioned Lannister army?
RAMSAY: No.
ROOSE walks past RAMSAY into Winterfell's great hall.
ROOSE: A reckoning will come. We need the North to face it. The entire North. They won't back us without Sansa Stark. We no longer have Sansa Stark. You played your games with her. You played your games with the heir to the Iron Islands and now they're both gone.
"Roose Bolton is a smart man it will be much harder for us to find any of his crimes if we want to execute him" Rickard Stark stated
Ned stark nodded his head "I know, we need something to pin blame on him to give a justifiable reason to the rest of the houses of North"
Brandon the Elder looked at the two of them and said "Why do we need to do something so complicated? We can just kill him when he is on a hunting trip or have Jon use his magic to kill him"
"If we don't find it anything then that's what we will have to do but I want to find out about his crimes so that I can permanently remove house Bolton" Ned Stark said ruthlessly.
RAMSAY: I have a team of men after them with some of my best hounds. They won't get far.
ROOSE: I'm glad to hear it. Without Sansa, you won't be able to produce an heir. And without an heir, well…
ROOSE sits at the dinner table. RAMSAY stares at him, astonished.
ROOSE: ...let's hope the maesters are right and Lady Walder's carrying a boy.
"Looks like Roose Bolton is fed up with Ramsay's actions and ready to set him aside" Brandon the Elder said
"It was only a matter of time, after all he destroyed the chip he was holding against the Iron Born and now even Sansa Stark has run away which means he doesn't have the legimetacy to rule the North" Rickard Stark said
"At the end of the day he is a psycho bastard who was legimitised by another bastard king so Roose wanting a true born son so that he could teach him properly isn't wrong" Tyrion added
NORTHERN WILDERNESS
SANSA and THEON are running through the woods frantically. The barking of dogs can be heard in the distance. SANSA tires. THEON runs back to hear and pulls her onward.
THEON: We can't stop.
The pair resume running. They happen upon a large, snowy river.
THEON: We have to cross here.
SANSA steps on a patch of thin ice and gasps.
SANSA: I can't.
THEON: It's the only way to throw off the hounds.
SANSA: But it's too cold. I can't. I won't make it. I'll die.
"If you don't go then you will be wise then dead" Arya muttered
Sansa couldn't help but shake in fear thinking what will happen if they were caught again.
THEON: I've seen what his hounds do to a person. This way is better.
THEON guides SANSA into the water. SANSA gasps at the cold. The both wade across.
"It looks Theon is trying make amends right now" Jon said
Robb frowned as he looked at his former friend on the screen then turning back to see the real him sitting beside his sister staring at the screen with his hands clenched together.
NORTHERN WILDERNESS - WOODS
THEON and SANSA are walking together. They are blue with cold. Barking can no longer be heard. THEON spots something off camera.
THEON: Over here. Come on.
THEON leads SANSA to an overturned tree. Its roots provide shelter from the snow. They sit down under the roots, shivering.
THEON: Sansa. Sansa.
THEON wraps his arms around SANSA. She rests her head on his shoulder and closes her eyes. Dogs barking can suddenly be heard closeby.
THEON: Stay here. I'll lure them away.
SANSA: No, I won't make it without you.
THEON: You will. Go north, only north. Jon is Lord Commander at Castle Black. He'll help you.
THEON runs into the woods but is immediately confronted by House Bolton soldiers and hounds.
BOLTON OFFICER: Where is Lady Bolton?
THEON: Dead.
BOLTON OFFICER: Liar.
THEON: She broke her leg jumping from the ramparts. I left her to die in the snow.
The dogs catch SANSA's scent and begin barking. They lead the soldiers to SANSA under the roots of the tree. SANSA cowers from them.
BOLTON OFFICER: I can't wait to see what parts Ramsay cuts off you this time.
"No no no! Why?" Sansa shouted in frustration
"Sansa! You know you can change all of them to to pigs or cows whenever you want to. You are not the same Sansa anymore so don't associate yourself with her nymore and try to watch with detachment" Aemon explained
Sansa looked at him and nodded "Thanks Jon, I will try"
One of the soldiers grabs SANSA and pulls her to her feet. A horse whinnies in the distance. The soldiers draw their weapons. BRIENNE and PODRICK ride towards the soldiers with their sword drawn.
BRIENNE cuts down BOLTON OFFICER as she rides past. PODRICK engages one of the soldiers in mounted combat. BRIENNE faces off with another mounted soldier. Their blades clash, but neither is hit. As BRIENNE rides past him, another soldier knocks her from her horse. She drops her blade but scrambles to retrieve it when she sees a soldier advancing towards her on foot. When she reaches the blade, the soldier kicks her. She retrieves the blade again and stands, engaging him in a swordfight. She cuts him down. A mounted soldier charges at BRIENNE. She jumps and strikes him, causing his horse to fall over, trapping him beneath it. While PODRICK continues his mounted sword fight, THEON grabs the blade of a fallen soldier off the ground. PODRICK cuts down the soldier he is fighting and they both fall from their horses. Another soldier advances on PODRICK, and they begin fighting. BRIENNE crawls over to the man trapped beneath his horse and slits his throat with a dagger. The soldier PODRICK is fighting knocks PODRICK's sword out of his hand. PODRICK falls to the ground. Just before the soldier is about to strike PODRICK, THEON stabs the soldier from behind. PODRICK stands up. BRIENNE walks over to SANSA. SANSA stands up to confront her. BRIENNE places her blade on the ground in front of SANSA and kneels before her.
"Woah! she really is a good fighter" Bran Stark said
BRIENNE: Lady Sansa, I offer my services once again. I will shield your back and keep your council and give my life for yours if need be. I swear it by the old gods and the new.
SANSA turns at looks at THEON for confirmation. THEON nods his head.
SANSA: And I vow...that you shall always have a place by my hearth and…
PODRICK: Meat and mead at my table.
SANSA: Meat and mead at my table. And I pledge to ask no service of you that might bring you dishonor. I swear it by the old gods and the new. Arise.
BRIENNE stands up. SANSA smiles at BRIENNE.
