I looked at it again. I'm not sure about the marketplace exchange which does seem off, but that sure looked like Arya that got stabbed. The facial marks were all there. What doesn't make sense is her lollygagging around taking in the city sights when she looked incredibly cautious and aware of what was likely coming at the end of the previous episode. Not sure how she walks this one off either. She got multiple gut-stabbed by a trained assassin with a dagger long enough to come out her back.
Obviously, the Faceless Dude is going to have to save her through Faceless Dude magic, since there's no way she's walking that off. Maybe he saves her as a punishment for Waif, since he told her not to make Arya suffer, but she goes for the gut stab to be a bitch even when she has a clean jump on Arya.

After the last couple of go nowhere seasons with her arc, eh, I wouldn't be as up in arms as I would have a few years ago. She's so disconnected with the story at this point and seemingly won't get Zartan powers, so I'm unsure what she's really bringing at this point with the rest of the Starks stepping up.
So Cersei's existing kids (well kid) are Baratheons and heirs to the throne, any kids she'd have with Loras's donated seed would have been heirs to Highgarden, so what happens to the Lannisters? I guess the Uncle is just left in charge like he is now?
I think the Lannister is an example. Jaime is/was a member of the Kingsguard. I don't think he can inherit the lands/Casterly Rock. Tywin named Cersei the heir but was forcing her to get married to Loras Tyrell. Anyway, when Cersei married Robert, she kept both the Lannister and the Baratheon sigils. If she married Loras, I assume she would have kept both sigils as well.

I thought it was a fine episode - I was worried the entire episode would focus on the village people, but there was plenty of other stuff to keep me interested. It was nice seeing McShane (hell, it's always good),but his brief appearance served its purpose, namely getting the Hound back in the game.

Some possible confirmation as to the content and recipient of the letter written by Sansa: http://imgur.com/a/p2mfe

I was waiting for her to run into Theon sitting at a table trying to man up with his ale. It would be a reunion of sorts. Her training would be an asset to Khaleesi and in turn her coming to conquero Westeros would naturally include destroying everybody on Arya's list.

Now that I've rewatched the episode and the scenes with her and the Waif fighting I'm actually starting to get behind the Fight Club theory. It's probably not going to be the case but it's definitely plausible.

Maybe she's settled on that as "her thing," like how Mckayla Maroney had to make the "not amused" face for the rest of her life.
Anyway, I really liked the episode and how it gave us looks at stuff we hadn't seen before, like Bear Island and Riverrun.

That's not duckface. It's a smirk. Duckface is when girls stick their lips out.

I figured Arya's sword would come into play when whatsherface comes after her. They don't know she has it. Can't remember, is it Valarian(?) steel?
