    I've never read the books but did some research. Lysa became pregnant and asked her father to marry her to little finger. Instead, they gave her an abortion and Jon arryn (I think that's his name). All this caused her stress and aged her 10 extra years.

      There’s actually a theory that John Arryn wasn’t killed because he discovered the secret between Jamie and Cersei. He was killed because he discovered that sweet Robin isn’t his son, but littlefingers. The only evidence to back up this claim. Is that Lysa had red hair and Jon had blond hair. While sweetrobin had brown hair like Littlefinger.

    That whole "cat and him being together" kinda backfired since he started the war that got her killed. Also, though he brags about sleeping with Cat, deep down Littlefinger probably knows that never happened. In the books he asks Cat for a ribbon or something, symbolizing her support in his duel with Brandon. Catelyn refuses and instead gives favor to Brandon.

    • @bobross4616
      @bobross4616 ปีที่แล้ว +143

      I mean, you can draw two conclusions that support this. Either Little Finger believes that he needs to get more power by betraying the starks and doesn't care if Cat dies because he deep down lost feelings after all the denial (even tho he still thinks she cares about him because he thinks that she's only with Ned because she has too). Or, he still cares about her and believes she cares about him, so by being a key piece that had Ned Stark killed he thought with him out of the picture he finally can have her be with him. I mean, he kinda makes an attempt after Ned Stark dies. Both theories support that Little finger believes that Cat was with him that night.

    • @nelsonchereta816
      @nelsonchereta816 ปีที่แล้ว +196

      Or he believed that Cat DID love him, but would only reveal it in the dark where no one else could possibly see. So of course, she's not going to publicly favor him in a duel vs her betrothed. Plus, the only reason he survived the fight was Cat begging Brandon to spare him. I'm sure in his mind that was proof of her love, a love that could never be seen in the light of day. I can speak from experience when I say a man in love with a girl will come up with all sorts of excuses for whatever she does.

      ​He most definitely didn't knew and his realization that Cat never even KNEW how much he loved her, and that his plotting to have her was what ended up killing her... that broke him.
      Sansa talks about him sobbing uncontrolably and getting sort of a split personality, where his "Petyr" half is fatherly and wants to help her (for her mother, in a sense), but that there are days where he is not "Petyr", but "Littlefinger", and he looks at her like she was her mother (which she resembles), calls her Cat, gets drunk and looks like he is about to grope her, though he seems to be capable of getting hold of himself, at least up to the point the novel left them off.

    This takes place long before the duel with Brandon. While Hoster Tully is reconciling a Blackwood/Bracken dispute, the three young teens are left to drink unsupervised. Petyr tries to kiss Cat but she laughs it off. Petyr gets drunk and is carried to bed. Lysa visits. He thinks she's Cat. This is the last Sansa chapter in A Storm of Swords for anyone interested.

    In the books, Littlefinger enjoys his sexual assault encounter no more than any other character who has been accosted or raped. He brutally kills Lysa the moment he can, not only because she’s so warped in the head she had married him despite his wanting to do it in front of her lords and ladies.
    They all think he’s killed her (yes) after whisking her away and marrying her in secret (not what he wanted at all, Lysa gets her way again with her royal authority). He’s now lord of the vale and we don’t know much more than that atm.

Then Lysa snuck in and had sex with him. He thought it was Catelyn then.
      Then Lysa cared for him after his duel with Brandon, and they had sex again. That's why he claims he took the maidenheads of both of then, because that's what he believes.

      Let's be clear: Littlefinger is highborn. He's a noble, not a commoner. But his house has a very low status in the Vale. An alliance between the Tullys and the Baelish would have brought nothing to the Tullys. His fiefdom is poor, he couldn't muster a strong army and he had no political influence either. And the situation would have been the same if Littlefinger had been a woman.

    The incident where he thought he was sleeping with Catelyn actually took place prior to the duel. Hoster Tully was hosting one of his Bannerman, as he was trying to settle a dispute in the Riverlands. It was during that dinner that the young people were drinking and Littlefinger got really drunk. There was dancing and LF tried to kiss Catelyn, but she wouldn’t let him. The Blackfish had to carry him up to bed. That was the night that Lysa snuck into his bed and he thought it was Catelyn. This happened prior to the duel with Brandon. In fact, it was probably his belief that Catelyn had actually slept with him that had him decide to challenge Brandon. Because he already thought that he and Catelyn had something going on. I don’t think that was the time that Lysa got pregnant though. I would have to go back and look to make sure, but I think it was when she was nursing him after his injury, and he was quite aware of the fact that it was Lysa he was sleeping with then. This is the whole reason why he keeps telling everyone that he took the maiden head of both Tully sisters.

      Catelyn danced six dances with Petyr that night, six, I counted. When the lords began to argue my father took them up to his audience chamber, so there was no one to stop us drinking. Edmure got drunk, young as he was . . . and Petyr tried to kiss your mother, only she pushed him away. She laughed at him. He looked so wounded I thought my heart would burst, and afterward he drank until he passed out at the table. Uncle Brynden carried him up to bed before my father could find him like that. But you remember none of it, do you?" She looked down angrily. "Do you?"
      Is she drunk, or mad? "I was not born, my lady."
      "You were not born. But I was, so do not presume to tell what is true. I know what is true. You kissed him!"
      "He kissed me," Sansa insisted again. "I never wanted-"
      "Be quiet, I haven't given you leave to speak. You enticed him, just as your mother did that night in Riverrun, with her smiles and her dancing. You think I could forget? That was the night I stole up to his bed to give him comfort. I bled, but it was the sweetest hurt. He told me he loved me then, but he called me Cat, just before he fell back to sleep.

      2) get Harrenhal, so he would be high enough a lord to marry a Tully.

    Wrong he got drunk on the night of the betrothal of Cat and Brandonand slept with Lysa thinking it wa her. After the duel he and Caitlyn never spoke till she went to Kings Landing. Come on now getypur stuff right also The Black Fish carried him to his room cus he was so drunk.

    Not how it happened. Did you read the books?
    There was a feast during which Littlefinger danced with Cat a not insignificant amount of times.
    It's important to remember that Cat is like 18 and Petyr 15. Peter thinks this is important and means she loves him back. Cat seems legitimately oblivious to this, even in the future.
    He proceeded to get ridiculously drunk and had to be carried to bed. Later, Lysa goes to pretty much assault Petyr and when he calls her Cat she doesn't correct him. She does it from some misplaced sense of love a jealousy of her sister. She thinks Cat is teasing him, leading him on and intentionally turning him into a joke.

    Its not the patriarchy but the class system. Also I've always questioned how much he really loved her since he qas able to send her husband to his deathbed which could have put both her daughters in grave danger.

    • @edisonlima4647

      He failed to predict she would die and was actually hoping to marry her at the first chance (specially after getting Harrenhal), because he believed Cat secretly loved him but that she was way too honorable to ever cheat on a husband, love or no love, so only Ned being sent to the Wall would make her available.
      He was probably counting that she would run straight for him after Ned was sent to the wall, rather than towards Renly Baratheon, at which point she slipped away from anyone else's radar until ahe died.

      Everyone in the show is older to a different degree. Cat and Ned are in middle forties, Jaime and Cersei seem to be 5 years older. They aged up Jon, Robb, Bran, Daenerys and Rickon by 3 years (unfortunately actors are even older, so Robb looks more 25 than 17.. and Jon and Dany look their part until season 4). Sansa, Arya and Joffrey are 2 years older.
      But yeah, she looks nothing like book description, and is even a little different in character (more modern concerned mother, than medieval lady) but actress did a brilliant work. One of the best portrayals.

    The War of the Five Kings would have been a great time for him to strike if this whole thing was just to pursue her. Littlefinger has the resources he could have leaked information to win her over. Just by warning her about the red wedding, which there was enough moving parts there that I don’t believe Littlefinger wouldn’t of found out about it, he probably could of got a marriage out of it. I don’t think it was Cat, but the position he was after from the start. Had he successfully got her, Edmure would have had an accident, leaving Cat and her husband free to claim Riverrun. I think the fixation came from little kid hormones mixing his quest for power with love.
