Sansa flees the scene of the crime with Ser Dontos. After a scary climb she’s rowed to deliverance - which turns out to come with a familiar (although not totally friendly) face. Simon and Mackelly consider her future.

Chapter Review:
Sansa Stark races to the Godswood where she has hidden a change of clothes. When she takes her hair net off, she realizes a black amethyst is missing and gets a sinking feeling in her stomach that it’s somehow related to King Joffrey’s death. Dontos arrives and denies that the hair net had anything to do with Joff’s death. He choked on pie.
Dontos leads her out of the castle to a cliff where a secret ladder has been cut out of the stone that leads to the river below. When the pair make down safely, they find a man waiting to row them out to safety.

When the little boat reaches a ship, a stunned Sansa discovers Petyr “Littlefinger” Baelish waiting for her. Dontos, who stayed behind to row himself back to the castle, asks for his reward of 10,000 gold dragons. Instead, he's killed by three crossbow bolts.

Littlefinger explains to a highly-upset Sansa that Dontos did what he did at Littlefinger’s command and did so because he was being handsomely paid. Once he’d drunk this payday, he’d sell Sansa again to Varys or Cersei. When Sansa asks why Littlefinger would want to hurt the Lannisters, who gave him so much, he responds that he had no motive. He likes to keep his foes confused. He says he loved Sansa’s mother Catelyn and thinks in a different world Sansa might’ve been his daughter. He tells Sansa to forget about the Lannisters, Tyrion, and King’s Landing. She’s safe with him and sailing home.
