I’m not sure about that. That’s the problem. whoever said she was speaking with loud voice, as if she wanted to be heard, is wrong, IMO.

For that to work, we should have seen LF (or smb else working for him) eavesdropping. We’ll have to see tonight, how that plays out. But if after the reveal we’re not able to connect the dots, and see how either Arya or Sansa played him — if they playd him and it’s not Bran saving the day — then it’s simply a case of bad written plot, and Arya giving the dagger to Sansa was cheap foreshadowing.

LF scheme though is weak. For that scheme to work you need the person you are playing (Arya in this case) to act fast on it. Otherwise, the longer it goes on the more danger it becomes for you cause the possibilities for them to find out are bigger. Suffice for Arya to tell Sansa where did she found the letter and you are a gonner. Even if Arya says nothing (thinking that they are both in this together) if I was Sansa, I would go to the Maester and check with him about the letters I sent to Winterfell. After all, she sent that letter and I assume that was the only letter she sent there while she was in KL. So for LF to put all his eggs in that basket is unbelievable for me. It’s an ill-conceived for a master of manipulation, such as LF.

Last but not least, why would LF risk having Arya reveal that letter to the Lords of the North? That would destroy Sansa’s reputation with them and she would lose all the power she has. That’s not in his interest cause she is the last hope he has to gain smth. Bran and Jon are out of the equation. Bran can’t even become Lord of Winterfell, and in anycase LF tried to kiss their ass and it didn’t work. Arya doesn’t even care about that and doesn’t like LF, he knows that. So what’s his plan? It doesn’t make sense to me.
