Nothing new or ground breaking here really just another layer of mirroring I just noticed. The scene(s) where Aria is at the Twins, really is comparing the Lanisters to the Freys. At one point Jaimie tells Walder basically that the Freys are shit and the Lanisters are better. Another way this is shown is Walders interaction with Arya before he dies. Im not sure of the episode but at an earlier time Arya was Tywins cup bearer. He figured out something was off and that she was high-born based on something small like say m'Lord vs My Lord. This shows how smart Tywin is. Cut to Walder asking about the whereabouts of his sons and "Arya" says "My Lord" 3 times and he never catches on until she spells it out for him. Not saying he should have been able to figure out she was a Stark, even Tywin didn't figure that out, rather that she was not low-born as she was pretending to be.
Just thought it was cool how the story mirrors itself. Walder having his throat cut mirroring Catlyn from Red Wedding is not new info but it got me thinking of other ways they may have done it. Jaimie's talk about Lannisters being better was really driven home by putting Walder in the same situation as Tywin and watching him miss every sign. (ok not EVERY sign, he realized she wasn't one of his normal girls.)
If this has been mentioned and this is a repeat, my bad.
