* TheBrute: The Whitehill's appear to be DumbMuscle for the Boltons.



* HoistByHisOwnPetard: A minor one. Every time Ethan points out the incompetence of the Whitehills, he gives a very-very poor excuse or explanation. Ramsay finally gets so sick of it, he lets the Whitehill's keep half of their land. The Whitehills have gained powerful concessions but just had their reward halved because he wasn't able to give a decent defense of his house.
