Arya and Co. finally meet Beric Dondarrion. He gives Sandor Clegane a trial-by-combat, which the Hound wins. But Dondarrion is dead for only a brief moment. Mackelly and Simon do a head-whip double-take with everyone else.

Chapter Review:
Arya Stark, Gendry, and their companions from the Brotherhood Without Banners reach a secret hideout where Thoros of Myr, Beric Dondarrion, and the higher-ups of the Brotherhood reside. The other prisoner, Sandor Clegane is brought before the Brotherhood, where a list of accusations is leveled against him. None really hold water.
Thoros was known to the Hound as a false priest, but the Myrhenese insists that he really has found his true calling now. The rest of the Brotherhood seem to be firm believers in R'hllor. Lord Beric, a battered version of the man that Arya recalls Jeyne Poole swooning over, grants the Hound a trial by combat.
Dondarrion’s sword bursts into flames when he slices his own palm with it. Scaring the pyrrophobic Hound. The battle ebbs and flows, but a huge Clegane blow breaks the burning sword and cuts through Beric’s kneck down into his chest killing him instantly. The Hound puts out the flames that threaten to engulf him, while Dondarrion’s body is dragged away by his followers. Arya tries to take matters into her own hands, but is restrained. She tells the Hound to go to hell, to which a revived Dondarrion replies “he has."
