Tonight we pour one out for SS Abandoned plotlines.

You served us well.

 

[jediyoshi]

Fuck that end sequence was so dope, I got chills

 

[Devilinthiscity]

I wouldn't be dissapointed so quickly, she might be playing along.

This is what I'm hoping, but she is probably getting played. Which sucks since her character so far has been really getting the best out of her enemies.

 

[Volimar]

MUTHA FUCKING GENDRY

Gimme that warhammer!

but it doesn't really say anything other than ned stark is a traitor and it summons rob to kings landing IIRC

In Sansa's handwriting.

By the way, did Gilly actually confirm that Rhaegar remarried?

OH MY GOD if that's the case!

Jon's a legit man, he's no bastard after all.

Yep. I was like WTF YOU DON'T JUST CASUALLY DROP THAT KNOWLEDGE!

 

[Savitar]

Yup!

 

[Glazed]

honestly was half expecting that scroll to be robb declaring jon as his heir.

 

[Loxley]

Arya with that Skyrim lock picking skill.

I hope she doesn't take Littlefinger's bait.

I feel like we may be in for a serious game of cat and mouse between Arya and Littlefinger, with Sansa caught in the middle.

 

[wandering]

Robert to Ned: You've got fat

Jon to Gendry: You got leaner

 

[vaderise]

How did everyone like the still rowing fan service line??? lol

I wouldn't call it fan service. That's something anyone would say to Gendry if they were in Davos' position. Last time Davos saw him he was rowi-
Shit it's too much of a meme at this point i can't even...

 

[Fright Zone]

Hnnnnggg, that was fucking immense.
Even without any big action scenes this show is too good. Season is really hitting it's stride as expected.

Such a badass group, but yeah, with all my favourite characters together I'm worried about who makes it back alive.

 

[ComputerBlue]

The 100% most sensible thing to do would be to take the Tarlys prisoner.

She's the breaker of chains though....breaker.

 

[rucury]

Does anyone know what that letter Arya stole could be? This is all I got from trying to pause and read.

Spoiler

”... is dead, killed from wounds he took in a ..... Joffrey and tried to steal his throne. The Lannisters...... King's Landing and swear fealty to King Joffrey and..... Your faithful sister, Sansa"

 

[Obliterator]

THAT preview looks legit insane.

I just don't see how any of them can survive this. I don't even see how Jon would other than plot armor

 

[The One and Done™]

Gendry's reintroduction was perfect. I also love that he's smart. None of the naive protag bullshit. Fuck and that Ultimate Alliance at the end...holy shit

Side note, calling it now, Sansa and Arya are playing Littlefinger. The pack survives and the lone wolf dies. STARK SISTERS! ASSEMBLE!

 

[VeeP]

hearing the "inside the episode" at the end with the showrunners makes me feel like the audience knows the story better than they do sometimes.

one of the Ds says "when people watch Daenerys's scene, hopefully there will be people who can decide for themselves whether what she did was justice or insane etc"

but everyone should be saying what she did was insane. The 100% most sensible thing to do would be to take the Tarlys prisoner. Not burn them alive.

unless I'm wrong and people think it's a better idea to just kill more people after a battle.

The main problem is she keeps saying "I'm different". But she's just doing what Cersei would do. The easy thing to do is to kill people and rule with fear.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Yeah, I figure with only two episodes left there will have to be at least a little something.

Yeah just to bulid up the last.

Spoiler

I assume the fast travel will make sense now because Jon will pop up.

 

[oddj0b]

Bran shook by a single glance from one white walker lol

 

[zsynqx]

I really like this director, bring him back next season.

 

[Crossing Eden]

Cersei is too far gone. That look in her eye.

 

[Wanda/Wander]

nerf Little Finger pls

 

[Ferrio]

Huge bombs this episode. So Jon is the rightful King right, or atleast he has more claim than Dany?

 

[golem]

Yup, Baric Dondarrion is gonna perma die. Jorah is also most likely gonna die.

But will jon die and get re-rezed?

 

[Netherscourge]

Arya is going to need to find a good mask soon...

 

[broncobuster]

I just realized Jon and Benjen might reunite. BENJEN time, all day!

 

[Einchy]

Bran shook by a single glance from one white walker lol

I like to believe that it was the ravens that were so scared that it broke Bran's magic and not that he got scared.

RIP Rowing Gendry

Yea. But they're totally gonna get it on on top of Drogo first.

 

[The One and Done™]

Cersei is too far gone.

God she deserves worst than death. What a manipulative dick sock.

 

[ComputerBlue]

Why wasn't Ed, the fucking lord commander there to meet Jon, or to free the prisoners???

 

[Velcro Fly]

Anyone happen to get a freeze frame on that scroll Arya had to see what it said?

 

[DragoonKain]

So was Littlefinger framing Sansa by leaking that scroll to Arya?

 

[vaderise]

Robert to Ned: You've got fat

Jon to Gendry: You got leaner

Too bad it's not an actual mirror.
I wonder if i'm only one that wanted Jon to remain a bastard, not being some Targaryen dude. He's better off being Ned's son.
And that way he wouldn't hit his aunt you know

 

[Volimar]

Does anyone know what that letter Arya stole could be? This is all I got from trying to pause and read.

Spoiler

”... is dead, killed from wounds he took in a ..... Joffrey and tried to steal his throne. The Lannisters...... and swear fealty to King Joffrey and..... Your faithful sister, Sansa"

It's the letter that Cersei had Sansa send to Robb after Robert died to try to convince him to bend the knee. Littlefinger made sure Arya saw him with it and planted it so she'd find it and it would serve to sew animosity between the sisters.

Why wasn't Ed, the fucking lord commander there to meet Jon, or to free the prisoners???

Edd's at Castle Black, the prisoners and Jon are at Eastwatch by the sea.

BTW everyone saw Eastwatch on the map in the opening? Nice.

 

[sangreal]

Why wasn't Ed, the fucking lord commander there to meet Jon, or to free the prisoners???

they were at eastwatch, not castle black

 

[SurrenderDorothy]

So Jon has more claim over the Seven Kingdoms than Dany?

Lol, he'll never know what he's worth confirmed.

Too bad it's not an actual mirror.
I wonder if i'm anyone that wanted Jon to remain a bastard, not being some Targaryen dude. He's better off being Ned's son.

I think he'll remain as "Snow" after all. Finding out he's a secret Targaryen price who is supposed to inherit Westeros will be too much.

 

[Albino_Yeti]

Damn man. Next week is gonna be off the damn wall.

That is literally the Game of Thrones Avengers going out beyond the wall.

 

[jfkgoblue]

Hiding the fact that Jon is a trueborn Targaryan (and thus has a better claim to the Iron Throne than Dany) in a scene that they knew everyone would tune out cuz duck the Sam plot this season....

Also that team is fanfic as fuck

 

[SargerusBR]

Need someone to shop this ASAP

 

[VeeP]

So Jon has more claim over the Seven Kingdoms than Dany?

Lol, he'll never know what he's worth confirmed.

I guess you could say... he know's nothing.

 

[Einchy]

Why wasn't Ed, the fucking lord commander there to meet Jon, or to free the prisoners???

He's back at Castle Black, this was wayyyyyy over at East Watch.

It's not that black and white but killing them with fire definitely seemed excessive.

 

[OrionX]

There was a lot of information to process in this episode.

The return of Gendry! And that savage burn about Jon not measuring up to Ned! lol

Cersei's sudden pregnancy sure is a convenient way to ensure Jaime's loyalty just as it's beginning to waver! I think she lying.

Littlefinger's pulling some shit. Sansa v. Arya battle incoming. Arya's stealth skills got nerfed hard in this episode!

 

[wiibomb]

Does anyone know what that letter Arya stole could be? This is all I got from trying to pause and read.

Spoiler

“… is dead, killed from wounds he took in a ….. Joffrey and tried to steal his throne. The Lannisters…… King's Landing and swear fealty to King Joffrey and….. Your faithful sister, Sansa”

I need to see the full quote too. I'm not sure what are the implications of what littlefinger found

 

[victreeb3l]

I have a feeling that Dany will meet up with Jon next episode. Maybe with all 3 dragons beside her.

I also dont think Arya will fall for LF's trap, especially with Bran around.

 

[Loxley]

Huge bombs this episode. So Jon is the rightful King right, or atleast he has more claim than Dany?

Since it make's Jon the only living male Targaryen heir, it would give him rightful claim to the throne over Dany.

 

[DangerMouse]

So good!

Hehe yeah!

 

[Seductivpancakes]

Man when Davos made that rowing joke, I was thinking, Gaf gonna like this.

 

[Plum]

Really great episode. This season has just been pure fire for the most part.

 

[The Artisan]

She's the breaker of chains though....breaker.

are you metaphorically saying that somehow even though the other Tarly didn't know about the murder of his brother and father, his spirit of becoming a maester was "broken"
and won't get his chains?

The main problem is she keeps saying "I'm different". But she's just doing what Cersei would do. The easy thing to do is to kill people and rule with fear.

so you agree then that the showrunners sound kinda nuts if they expect people to be divided about whether Dany was right or wrong?

that was the main point of what I was trying to say...I've been losing respect for them lately
