"The Broken Man" is the seventh episode of the sixth season of HBO's fantasy television series Game of Thrones, and the 57th overall. The episode was written by Bryan Cogman, and directed by Mark Mylod.

In this episode, Sandor "the Hound" Clegane (Rory McCann) has joined the pacifist community of Brother Ray (Ian McShane), a repentant soldier who nursed him back to health after he was left for dead by Arya Stark (Maisie Williams). In the North, Jon Snow (Kit Harington), Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) and Davos Seaworth (Liam Cunningham) attempt to unite forces they believe are loyal to House Stark, but find it to be an uphill battle. In King's Landing, Margaery Tyrell (Natalie Dormer) convinces her grandmother (Diana Rigg) to leave the capital, and Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey) seeks her help to defeat the Faith Militant, but is rejected. In the Riverlands, Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) arrives and is unsuccessful in negotiating peace with the Blackfish (Clive Russell). In Braavos, Arya books passage on a ship to Westeros, but is stabbed in the abdomen by the Waif (Faye Marsay).
