I really hope Arya's plot is going somewhere. She invested a lot of time and effort into the whole faceless thing and the assassins also seemed uncharacteristically interested in keeping, feeding, clothing, protecting and training her, despite her defiant attitude and frequent f*ck-ups. If she just b*ggers off back to Westeros now - it will all have been a giant waste of time for everyone involved, including the viewers.
What is she planning to do in Westeros anyway - make use of her new abilities, like... err... washing corpses, begging and taking a stick to the face? Because it sure doesn't seem like her assassin training is anywhere near complete. It would make sense, if she somehow found out about what Jon and Sansa are up to - but I don't think we've seen anything suggesting that...
Also, if the Faceless Men actually meant to kill Arya - why would the Waif leave her body in the water? Wouldn't they at least want her face, for all their trouble? I mean - didn't Jaqen say exactly that, when he gave her the assignment? "One way, or another a face will be added to the hall".
