Reduction of episodes this season right? I mean pacing is obviously going to be faster
Yara only had a partial fleet though - part was going to take the Unsullied around to Casterly Rock, Yara was just heading to Dorne to gather their army. This would have been before they had the Dorne army.
An ambush by Euron in the middle of the night with the fleet he had (which would be larger than what Yara would have) combined with whatever magic he was tossing out for that lightning/giant fireballs would wreck Yara's fleet, so it all works.

Yeah. It may be cowardly, but it was smart.

No Euron took her hostage

I love Pokken!
Pretty sure she and Ellaria will be the "gift" Euron promised Cersei.

You guys know catapults armed with flammable projectiles aren't magic right.

It's as if Theon has no dick.
Yo...
They ran off with the Iron Islands' best ships.
They had DORNE'S army with them.
And they got wiped out just like that?
I'm not even mad about Reek. It strains belief that they would get caught off guard and decimented just. like. that.
Also, I didn't like the Sand Snakes either...but weren't they supposed to be highly trained, specialized warriors? They got taken out by grunts.

Can't wait to see what happened with Sam and Jorah.
It'll either be Jorah is cured or the pain was so bad he pretty much goes into shock and just dies.

That's two leaders gone. Guessing Euron will keep Yara hostage while Cersei gets Ellaria.

Did this episode have a different director or editor or something? There were several pretty smooth visual transitions that seemed new - going from Jorah to that bowl of soup, Missandei's hand reaching for the bed to someone reaching for a book, etc. Simple stuff but it was pulled off well.
I really wanted to see Theon saying "reek" before jumping.
Did Yara die or Euron took her with him?
Also, I love how at the beggining of the seasons, the Lanister looked the weakest from all the series, but between this victory and the giant ballesta, they seem to be as powerful as ever

Probably just to show that Nymeria is alive, has a wolf pack, but has seen some shit, man. So much shit she's a different wolf and won't go with Arya

Honestly I was expecting Yara to give him the >.> >.> eyes to queue the jump up.
I think it's more fucked that she expected him to get himself captured trying to save her. It's their culture though to be brave to a fault though so can't blame her.
Under those conditions though, Theon is better off fighting another day.

That looked like Oberyn's wife and bad pussy on the mast of the ship at the end, but I could be wrong. I hope they were just taken hostage.

Wow gotdamn
Sand sisters dead
Yara dead
Ellaria captured will probably be tortured to death
Littlefinger will try to screw over Jon Snow
Arya will miss Jon Snow...no grand start reunion
Olenna will be doublecrossed by Tarly
This episode had all the good guys losing.

To me, Arya deciding to go home ment that she has let her grudges go. For now at least. And the Nymeria leaving was a symbol of that. It was kind of a send off.
reminder for people who forgot season 1 so they aren't confused when nymeria shows up later
The Artisan

same here, honestly i think he had a plan in his mind of just believing Euron will spare her, so he will come back for her...if he tried going for her, surely enough he would've got killed & she would've got. If somehow he managed to kill Euron and save Yara, there's still the whole Greyjoy army all around him.
and the entire faction-Greyjoy armada

She's alive along with Tyene and Ellaria. Gifts to Cersei me thinks.

Yeah. His actor went through some great facial expressions in that moment before he jumped.

Man I hope Jorah comes and saves the day at the end of this season.
I don't care what he looks like by then.

I think they were headed to Dorne to pick up the army? Either way theyre probably out of the picture for now
But that battle at the end was a complete mess from an editing standpoint.
It was the two snakes that had died- one was hanging (strangled) one was impaled.
yeah bitch boi Theon will do it at the end of season.

I think it was to show that a lot of time has passed, the wolf represents her family/what she knew when she last saw her home.
Everything is different, it was a wake up call that when she get's home nothing is going to be what it was, and while she might recognize and have those memories of the past, everyone else has grown past those and are completely different people now.
It shows that there are still parts of old Arya that she is clearly suppressing, and why she was never "no one".

they are dead i think
it showed them hanging and stabbed on the end of the ship at the end of the episode.

Yeah, watch the extra after the episode.
Yes. It calls back to when her father told her what kind of Lady she could be when she grew up and she told him "That's not me". So when she offered Nymeria to come back to Winterfell with her and she left, she knew it was because "it's not you".

Theon... why did you run?
Good episode, though I didn't expect the last part to end like that

So everyone agrees that the Sand Snakes are the biggest jobbers in all of fiction right?

I was thinking, that Nymeria was thinking the same thing Arya was. "That isn't her..."
