Cersei currently has a woman prisoner in a cell watching her daughter starve to death. Cersei is on another level.

That woman murdered Cersei's daughter with poison. Granted we could do the whole she did this but she did this, but lets focus on Dany for a second.

"I'm not Queen Cersei. Now, bend the knee or get burned alive"

"Oh, thats your son? Naw, I won't put men in chains. Burn them both in front of their troops"

One is a short, slow death. The other is a fast but horrific fate.

This is the only episode that felt rushed, anyone else think that?
it was almost jarring

We had such dull moments the past 6 seasons, that those could've been rushed and episodes like this could've had better pacing.

But overall I'm happy with the pacing. It's better than a very little happens episode. I'm just sad it's almost over .

 

[DangerMouse]

RIP Rowing Gendry

LOL

Though as someone else joked, he found himself rowing again

 

[Zasa]

I'm gonna go with the Hound sacrificing himself to save the team. That redemption arch.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I hope we get to see zombie Mountain in action

 

[victreeb3l]

Wait how do we know Jon is the rightful heir, i guess i missed that?

Gilly found that scroll about the maester that annulled Rhaegars marriage to legitimize his marriage with Lyanna.

 

[FiggyCal]

Certainly not! She merely has a woman in a prisoner cell who was forced to watch her daughter die of poison and is now forced to watch her body rot. Completely different.

Until I see it, I'm assuming Tyene is alive.

 

[broncobuster]

Yea but Jon's grown on her. Jorah better step his game up.

Jon took Jorah's sword. Next Dany will marry Jon. Then Jon fan #1 Lyanna Mormont will retain control of her house.

Jorah gets nothing.

 

[sangreal]

Wait how do we know Jon is the rightful heir, i guess i missed that?

Sam's girl was casually reading how Rhaegar's (Jon's father) marriage was annulled and he had a secret remarriage

 

[darkwing-buck]

FUCKING DARK SOULS

THIS SQUAD NEEDS A NAME

 

[jfkgoblue]

Wait how do we know Jon is the rightful heir, i guess i missed that?

They hid it in a Gilly/Sam scene so yeah.... but basically Rhaegar and Lyanna were married so Jon is Rhaegar's heir.

 

[Nokagi]

Arya getting played so hard. Littlefinger will run circles around her. Bran should probably let her know what's going on lol.

 

[vaderise]

Beric fucking Dondarrion.
Still the most badass guy in AsoiaF

 

[Zabka]

Certainly not! She merely has a woman in a prisoner cell who was forced to watch her daughter die of poison and is now forced to watch her body rot. Completely different.

My bad! Forgot about the poison. Queen Cersei is ever merciful.

 

[Volimar]

Anyone think Dany is gonna fly over there with Drogon and save them?

Jon doesn't need Dany, he can summon a dragon himself with his Targaryan blood.

 

[Wuiji]

Hey Jon Snow, you know what might have been handy before setting off on your trip north of the Wall? Perhaps making a handful of dragonglass weapons, just in case shit pops off.

 

[serenewarfare]

it's just in response to how the showrunners talked about it.
fuck that choice! cersei would probably have done the same thing!

why not just take them prisoner?!

They have negative value as prisoners. That's two extra people you have to carry around, feed, and keep guards on all the time. They made their allegiance clear. It wasn't going to change.

 

[neptunes]

Late 2018/early 2019 I believe. Maybe longer?

Geezus...ugh

 

[Velcro Fly]

I'm gonna go with the Hound sacrificing himself to save the team

Hope not. Besides Jon he's the one I want to die the least.

 

[Vashetti]

.

Future stuff needs to be spoiler tagged

 

[MG310]

So is Jon able to take part in this fiery sword business now?

 

[Imperfected]

I can't wait until thae fanart of the GoT avengers

They're more like the GoT Mystery Men.

Let's see what we got:
Non-Stark
Captain Friend Zone
The Bastard Everyone Forgets
Bear Husbando
The Fire Priest Wot Doesn't Have the Knockers
The Smaller Giant Brother

They couldn't get the Onion Knight on board. I assume Bran will join at some point because he's just too pathetic to miss out on being a part of the inaugural mission of The C-Team.

 

[Einchy]

Dany looked so worried when Jon said he was gonna go across to capture a White Walker. Anyone denying this Jon and Dany ship better get on the boat before we leave ya.

 

[Crossing Eden]

Twenty good men vs:

Wish I didn't have to wait a weekkkkkk :||||

 

[Seductivpancakes]

Man Beric is gonna get his shit fucked up.

 

[Plum]

I'm gonna go with the Hound sacrificing himself to save the team

Yeah, The Hound's story is over. He's already come back from death and all he can really do now is get a heroic sacrifice.

 

[Wagram]

I think people want Dany to be a protagonist, we want to root for her. At least I do. And I would love it if she actually followed through on her shit. "I'm different". No, your fucking not.

So because of this I'm gonna disagree with the showrunners. People don't want to see Dany become Cersei or her father. They want to see her as the Queen she describes herself as.

Everyone's gonna think that shit was crazy. Or atleast 90-10.

Yeah i've lost a lot of respect for the character in these past two episodes. She's no different than any other ruler trying to obtain power. Fuck her.

 

[FiggyCal]

Arya getting played so hard. Littlefinger will run circles around her. Bran should probably let her know what's going on lol.

She's just a kid.
Bran is gonna wait for Arya to get stabbed and then tell everyone "I saw it coming. I knew it would happen."

 

[soundscream]

I miss Ghost. He should have gone beyond the wall too!

At least they mentiond him this episode.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Why Avengers? More like Rogue One.

 

[Conor_Fool]

Robert to Ned: You've got fat

Jon to Gendry: You got leaner

Lol! I knew that scene rang a bell, and of course I knew Jon would chuckle. Fucking sick duo and an incredible team going beyond the wall. So hyped

 

[DangerMouse]

I laughed my ass off

Yup!

Damn, Davos had so many good lines, I spent so much of the episode laughing with a huge grin on my face.

 

[ComputerBlue]

That's from the pre season trailer, hasn't aired yet. Not sure how Cornballer will react to you posting it. Though I'm sure everyone has seen it, just a heads up.

 

[Glazed]

Why Avengers? More like Rogue One.

no

 

[BeforeU]

so much rushing wtf, pacing was all over the place in this episode

God damn now have to wait a week

 

[JadedWriter]

"You ain't my fucking Queen."
Dany's response:

 

[wiibomb]

Beric fucking Dondarrion.
Still the most badass guy in AsoiaF

I'm sorry, but I haven't seen anyone else wear a fucking doomhammer on Westeros, that got the price.

Gendry mah boy.

 

[Netherscourge]

Wish I didn't have to wait a weekkkkkk :||||

Three dragons would clean that army up in about an hour.

 

[DragoonKain]

So Davos didn't go with them.

So can someone explain to me why he went to East Watch if he's not going to go beyond the wall?

 

[darkwing-buck]

This was the funniest episode of the season. Tormund grilling Davos and Jon had me in stitches.

 

[victreeb3l]

I miss Ghost. He should have gone beyond the wall too!

No dude they would have killed him off. He cant die until he rips Littlefingers head off his body.

 

[Volimar]

Hey Jon Snow, you know what might have been handy before setting off on your trip north of the Wall? Perhaps making a handful of dragonglass weapons, just in case shit pops off.

Maybe they did that on the ship on the way to Eastwatch.

 

[SurrenderDorothy]

Jon is legit, I can't believe it.
This actually makes me think he'll never inherit the kingdoms after all.
He'll "know nothing" by not knowing what he's worth. By continuing to be Eddard's bastard and not the Targ king he was born to be. This war will be the end of him.

He's the Prince that was Promised. A Song of Ice and Fire.

 

[Error]

Some things felt off for me this episode. Littlefinger seemingly looking like he knew Arya was following him, hard to buy. One was trained by the greatest assassin in the world the other owned a brothel...

Also Dany non reaction to Jon Snow caressing Drogon and not getting his hand eaten. Even for Dany it took awhile to tame Drogon but she shrugged it off like it was something normal, I expected more of a reaction.

 

[neptunes]

so much rushing wtf, pacing was all over the place in this episode

God damn now have to wait a week

seriously, the meeting between Tyrion and Jamie was a throwaway

 

[Seductivpancakes]

Anyone got a good still of them walking into that white?

 

[sunshine and gasoline]

Hey Jon Snow, you know what might have been handy before setting off on your trip north of the Wall? Perhaps making a handful of dragonglass weapons, just in case shit pops off.

Just like how they travel off-screen I'm sure that they made some off-screen.

 

[Steejee]

Jon took Jorah's sword. Next Dany will marry Jon. Then Jon fan #1 Lyanna Mormont will retain control of her house.

Jorah gets nothing.

On the other hand, if Sam's relation to Jon is established (would have a taken a couple of weeks to get to Eastwatch, lots of time to chat...) then Jorah could just as easily see that Jon is basically the reason he's alive and had another chance to see Dany again.

As for the Tarly's, I'm expecting Sam to have his vows annulled by Dany and made Lord of their house again. For all the discussion of whether or not it was a good idea for Dany to burn them, worth pointing out that Tyrion and Varys most definitely did *not* think it was a good idea. Not a fatal one (as the Tarly's did betray their own liege), but one that needs to not happen in the future.

 

[Tall4Life]

Oh shit, I just realized...

So next ep, the Dream Team will be slaughtering the Walkers. But then it gets too overwhelming. Jorah dies. Tormund is killed. They're surrounded, with no options left.

THEN

OUT OF NOWHERE

STANNIS THE MANNIS MAKES HIS RETURN AND DESTROYS THE ENTIRE ARMY
