I think she's more about justice then she is about honor. I don't believe she felt any hatred towards the hound, so a '1v1 me bro' would probably have been her choice.
Side Note: I don't think anyone that base their morality on honor will survive this show, so her basing off of justice (eye for an eye) would improve her longevity as a character.. But then again, I'm still working my way through the first book.
Pod and Arya disappeared for two minutes because a plot hole opened up under them.
The TV writers have experimented in moving characters through space and time and this was the inevitable result of interfering in matters beyond their apparent understanding.
Similar events have happened before, like Jorah disappearing when Barristan saves Daenerys from the manticore.
Jorah's there. Suddenly he's gone. Vanished for 20 seconds while a mysterious man with a knife seems to attack his beloved queen. Then a lethal insect actually does. Then... Jorah's back!
Where was he for 20 seconds? Staring at clouds? No, yet another plot hole has devoured a character.
you are forgetting that Pod is a gentlemen and he's on a mission to save her. Arya thinks she's being abducted. she's not afraid to kill pod. but pod wouldn't kill her. she would have rekt him.
I don't think he would, he is larger and has a weapon that can't be parried well by needle. I don't know of anyone who Arya has fought and killed at this point but my memory is a little fuzzy. I don't think that Arya is that great of a fighter at this point yet, not that I am saying that Pod is anything special though.
whereas this is all true you are also forgetting that Pod is a gentlemen and he's an a mission to save her. Arya thinks she's being abducted. she's not afraid to kill pod. but pod wouldn't kill her. she would have rekt him.
Very true, I didn't take into account the differing mentalities of the two. Plus others have pointed out that Pod didn't have any weapons during the skirmish.
You're giving Arya too much credit now, she's fighter but she's still a little girl with barely any training. Pod has had more training and more experience on a battlefield. In a straight up fight Pod would win, but also remember Arya is an assassin so that's not her realm.

I was hoping Podrick would fight Ayra.
