Hmm... I also assumed "plot armor," but it'd actually make a great deal of sense to spare Jaime's life. He'd make a great hostage.
This would also add another layer of context to Tyrion's "flee, you idiot" line. Aside from generally preferring his brother to survive, it's possible it was never intended for him to die in the first place.
Littlefinger was starting on a plan to make Bran think "Jon Snow is not a real Stark, I should be king of the north". He started by giving him a valuable dagger with a story connected to him, talking about Catelyn and her children etc. It was really early in his plan, trying to plant the first seeds. Then Bran read right through him and said LF's "Chaos is a ladder" quote.
It's probably about this episode (nr.4). There were a lot of clips out there this weekend.
Yes but if they do off him, it would be because they have evidence of him being a cocksucking traitor right? Why would the Vale still support him? They are only loyal to him because he married Lysa.

The other guy from the vale, forgot his name, was conveniently shown in winterfell a few times.
Since the 'only cat' scene LF has been lame as hell.
Oh I agree completely. And all the current crap aside, the only ruling power I can see the Knights of the Vale supporting from here on out is the North, no matter who is in power in the Eyrie.

Is the sole purpose of the 3 Eyed Raven existing to defeat the Night King? Like, if they win this war, I wonder if he suddenly has no purpose, or does he go about helping with his visions in other ways?
That Robyn kid seems pretty attached to LF as well as being mentally unstable, they'd need some very strong evidence presented to be able to off LF and retain the support of the Vale.
Episode 4 doesn't really contain anything other than a practice fight between Arya and Brienne, and Sansa being reunited with Arya.
There's just way too much drive by spoiler bombing in this thread.

Jon Snow is still pretty cool and Tyrion is my favorite.

If they do off him, I'm curious what'll happen of his nephew (Lysa's son). He seemed pretty unhinged.

did anyone else interpret last week that Arya wasn't going back to Winterfell? I thought when she said "that's not who you are anymore" to Nymeria that that meant Arya was realizing she wasn't of Winterfell anymore and that she needed to go finish her task to kill Cersei.
I like them both. Sandor is my fucking GUY as well, but of late I get more psyched when Arya is on the screen than anyone. Like, I would watch an Arya series.
I don't think we've been told a purpose? My guess is he won't be there after the end, and permanently wargs himself into the past somehow. He's the GoT looper.

Lol, Robin Arryn is far from unhinged. He's just overly sheltered and naive beyond hope.
Two soldiers wide?
The flames are much wider than all the wagons as he goes past.
And is it really that amazing people are trying to figure out what's happening? The show went to a lot of detail making sure things fit and made sense and that this was a very grounded, realistic series for the first 4 or so seasons.

His favorite thing in the world is throwing people through the Moon Door, so yeah...he's a bit unhinged.

That's true, Dany did look worried but she didn't have a look on her face like she thought she was gonna. Fuckin Jaime man
No it wouldn't
With Dany dead and Jon 100+ miles away not even knowing how to be with a dragon, there's nothing holding Drogon and maybe even Viserion and Rhaegal from flying straight to King's Landing and roasting Cersei's ass
From that height and on the charge down, she would be able to tell if one individual looks like he's commanding the rest of the men; Jaime was on a horse with pimped out armor while he was commanding mostly foot soldiers.
:\
you know what's weird about family names in this show is people talk about them like they're ethnicities, instead of family names.
"Jon is half Targaryen, half Stark" - but that's 100% Westerosi, isn't it? Those are house names it's like I'm saying "I'm half Clarke, half Harington" but it's not supposed to be the same as saying something like "I'm have Irish, half Guyanese"
Indeed, yeah. Or it could just be some thick ass plot armor, who knows. Because it didn't look like Dany was trying to spare Bronn; Tyrion might not've known Bronn was even there not that it matters but Dany definitely tried to kill the shit out of Bronn when Drogon blew up the scorpion.
Are there more scorpions?
Sandor's been one of my favorite characters since day 1, and Arya's best arc was when she was with him. I love Beric and Thoros as well, so if Arya could just group up with them it would be such a dream team.
I feel that they have a better chemistry than I assumed they would. I really thought it would be potatoes and ice cream, but it turns out it's chocolate and peanut butter.
That depends, does Bron join with Dany or not? If he does he's going to be the new Lord of the Vale. All he needs is 10 Unsullied and some climbing spikes and he's got his own castle.

Now that is a man with a plan. Bronn is too OP.
He's captured the damn thing with 10 guys before, no reason he can't do it again.
Seriously though, I hope he joins up with Dany. I'd love to see him and Tyrion bro it up again.

Assuming the white walkers require cold temperatures to survive, wouldn't it make sense to let them come South and take them out in the south?
Unless they bring the temperature with them.

Wow that BTS of the battle is amazing. It's remarkable what they do for this show

I also just realized (rewatching) that there is a ~33 second long shot of Bronn scrambling through the chaos.

What! The kid is as psychotic as his mom. He doesn't know the difference between good and bad. He does everything on impulse.
Considering that He's likely Littlefibger's son, he doesn't have any of LF's intelligence.

that would suck if House Arryn is extinct
It's called the Loot Train Battle. Get it right!
(Why the fuck is it called the Loot Train battle when the loot aka gold is already in King's Landing?!)
They looted the farmers of their crops.
Actually no. I think it will be played-up, but not actualized. Jon is not destined for love and happiness, and neither is Dany. They are both living on borrowed time for a purpose, and I think those things will take precedence, although the tension might add to that for a time.
Edit: I just think they have better on-screen chemistry than I imagined. It's good.

Member
I beg to differ, my good sir. I think they have been destined to fall in love but one of them will have to die for the other. But I agree with you on the chemistry

I too felt Bastards was better. The dragon stuff was obviously amazing, but yea, I still think it wins out. Probably because of that shot where the entire army is charging at Jon, the tenseness of Rickon's impending doom, and of course, it concluding with Ramsay's death.

As much as I like Jaime as a character, he should have died right there and then. Just imagine him being burnt like a crisp by Drogon. In a relatively "grounded" show as GOT, I can't stand that amount of plot armour.
