CASTLE BLACK-SANSA'S ROOM

Sansa is knitting. There is a knock at the door.

Sansa: Yes?

A man of the Night's Watch enters.

Man: For you, my lady.

The man hands her a scroll. It bears the mockingbird sigil of House Baelish. Sansa unrolls the scroll and reads it.

Sansa: How far is Mole's Town?

MOLE TOWN

Littlefinger is standing in the center of the room. Sansa and Talana enters.

Littlefinger: Lady Sansa. Lady Talana. When I heard you escaped Winterfell from your father, I feared the worse. You have no idea how happy I am to see you unharmed.

Sansa: Unharmed? What are you doing here?

Littlefinger: I rode north with the Knight of the Vale to come to Hanir's aid, the Knights are encamped at Moat Caitlin.

Talana; To come to our aid? Did you know what he did to her? If you did know then you're the enemy. I should kill you

Sansa places her hand on her chest shaking her head and stands in front of her.

Sansa: Would you like to hear about our wedding night? He never hurt my face. He needed my face, the face of Ned Stark's daughter. But the rest of me, he did what he liked with the rest of me as long as I could still give him an heir. What do you think he did?

Littlefinger: I can't begin to contemplate --

Sansa: What do you think he did to me?

Talana: She asked you a fucking question!

Littlefinger: He beat you

Sansa: He enjoyed it

Talana grips onto her hand tightly while clenching her jaw in anger.

Sansa: What else did you think he did?

Littlefinger: Sansa, I---

Sansa: What else?

Talana: Sansa, did he cut you?

Sansa: Maybe you did know about Ramsay all along.

Littlefinger I didn't know.

Sansa: I thought you knew everyone's secrets.

Littlefinger: I made a mistake, a horrible mistake. I underestimated a stranger.

Sansa: The other things he did, ladies aren't supposed to talk about those things, but I imagine brothel keepers talk about them all the time. I can still feel it. I don't mean in my tender heart it still pains me so. I can still feel what he did in my body standing here right now.

Littlefinger: I'm so sorry.

Sansa: You said you would protect me.

Littlefinger: And I will. You must believe me when I tell you that I will.

Sansa: I don't believe you anymore. I don't need you anymore. You can't protect me. You won't even be able to protect yourself if I tell Talana to cut you down. And why shouldn't I?

Littlefinger: Do you want me to beg for my life? If that's what you want, I will. Whatever you ask that is in my power, I will do.

Sansa: What if I want you to die here and now?

Littlefinger: Then I will die.

Sansa: You freed me from the monsters who murdered my family and you gave me to other monsters who murdered my family. Go back to Moat Cailin. My sister will take back Winterfell with Aelor Targaryen's help
