I never said it did. That wasn't one of the assumptions that I was calling baseless.

That was this season. He changed his mind a week or two later because he didn't like an episode. To no one's surprise, really...

So, I wonder if winter will be gone next episode or if we'll actually have additional episodes in winter for the sake of realism. I hope the latter. The spontaneous winter coming and going for the Hearth's Warming episode was jarring.
