You cant tell me she didnt sense (hearing or smell) Baelish hiding there. And why wouldn't she sneak into his room disguised as a servant? She wanted him to see her. Plus she was very public with her confrontation of Sansa. But what tipped me off is when she mad those threats to Sansa while holding the dagger, then gave it to Sansa and walked away. I think she was trying to signal Sansa that she really wouldnt harm her.
But going along with the theme of plot holes, the sisters Stark have an oracle in Bran who they could consult to see what's up. Why havent they?
Bran is my biggest need from this season as well. He probably should have gotten to Winterfell around episode 6 or 7. Because like you said, Bran could pretty much resolve any and all drama around Winterfell.
But at the same time the writers probably didn't want to spend a lot of time on him in episodes that are usually more action packed (penultimate/last episode)
The writing of the show has taken a hit ever since they surpassed the books, but it's still great. I'm looking forward to seeing what turns out between the sisters. I think there is more going on there like you said.
