Sounds like they're all gonna meet up in Winterfell.
Wouldn't be surprised if Bronn showed up as well considering his talk with Tyrion.
Now that you mention it though, it's kind of disappointing that Jaime didn't bring Bronn with him.
But he's been "reading" the page about Lyanna death scene for god knows how long. What would stop him from reading the Quotes section by now. I think its more than just a matter of him not knowing where to look or there being too much history to cover.
Yeah, his "death" didn't hit me hard 'cus I'm sure Beric and him survived that. They don't usually kill characters off off-screen like that and when they do, it's obvious they died by the way the scene was shot.
Speaking of offscreen, I'm surprised we didn't see Yara. I thought for sure we would've seen her but she seems to be one of the hooks for season 8 and Theon's true redemption arc. He has now redeemed himself in the eyes of half of his family, especially his sister, now he has to redeem himself to his other sister.

I mean at the very least you can't blame the man. Sophie Turner is one pretty lady

Jaime told us where he was going, to honor his word. He's going North to help fight the dead.
Bronn and Pod are at the local brothel.
Nah, Bran saw it all.
Yep, pretty much.
Damn, you're right. We don't need hyperspeed ravens anymore. He can also save them the time and tell them Cersei's not sending anyone!
It was a two way discovery by him and Bran.

you haven't lived until a random little kid ask you "how do you make love".
Same the death was good but the build up was severely undercooked.
So many fake outs during the entire episode, honestly. I expected Theon to stab Jon for some reason in their alone scene lol

Not just love. Marriage. He's a legitimate Targaryen with a stronger claim to the Iron Throne than Dany.
He's the crown prince's male heir.
Fuck Ollie tbh. He took Jon's love before he could change her mind like Torumund.

Really disappointed in LF's death. Thought he was "endgame" material for sure.

Why would he do that?

I didn't like the way it ended, would have liked to have seen the look on everyone face, after the word got back about the wall being destroyed and the Night King having a dead dragon.
Yeah him and Berric definitely survived. They were land-side, not sea-side when the wall collapsed. They'll be back. No point in having them survive the Wight expedition to have them die off-screen as the wall fell.
For whoever mentioned taking out the Ice Dragon with plain fire - he's still got scales, so while it may be a Wight it may still be incredibly difficult to actually light it on fire, especially with the Night's King riding on him. I imagine the other two dragons could take him down.
Edit: On Theon's cockless scene, I thought that was hilarious. Somehow it worked well for me - being hit there repeatedly just broke a mental wall in him that, combined with the talk with Jon, just enraged him enough to go to town on that guy. Like all that shit together finally got through to him and broke his fear. I'm assuming the guy is alive, just because him beating him to death would be a bit much vs just winning a fist fight.
I feel like Cersei's pregnancy is going to cause Tyrion to switch sides (or help Cersei in a significant way), as amends for Myrcella and Tommen's deaths.
Yeah, it was speculated since the Tower of Joy scene confirmed that the official timeline was already bullshit. Rhaegar supposedly killed Lyanna but then we find out he was already dead when she died, so a lot of people thought this meant that he never kidnapped anyone and he actually loved her. This season confirmed that they actually loved each other and ran away together.

This would be good, especially because we have had so many fucking episodes that end with white walkers.

Also shoutout to Sam for actually remembering the Rhegar wedding thing since the scene made it look like he was not paying attention at all.
AKA "oh shit, Lena Headey is coming, I gotta get out of here Pod."
did you watch the episode? Bran literally says this
All to end with a Jaime/Arya team-up against Ser Gregor.
And people shit on him for not listening to his lady, Sam continues to prove he is the GOAT dad and husband of Westeros.

Yeah...him remembering was something. Unbelievable might be the word I would use?

His first marriage was. There's a point in the show where Cersei talks about how she was in love with Rhaegar and Tywin (who was Mad King's Hand) wanted her to marry Rhaegar, but the Mad King rebuffed that since she wasn't worthy. I don't know why he wanted to marry his son into Dorne though, but I'm sure the Mad King had some reason.

I understand.
Though his first marriage being arranged is besides the point, that is the world they lived in.
He literally annulled his previous marriage in secret and ran off with someone elses' betrothed.
I'm not even blaming Lyanna, she was in her right, she didn't want Robert.
It's Rhaegar I have a problem with, surely he knew what this looked like.
Robert's been a scumbag, that is known. It's just why didn't they hear from Lyanna during those months in hiding? Why didn't they clarify what happened? The war raged on for a pretty long time before Rhaegar was even heard of, Lyanna though? Nothing.
Watching the dragonpit scene, I haven't felt that much tension watching anything since I saw Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds".
Well, based on the information provided at the time, it looked exactly like that.
I dunno. It's this show man. I was just waiting someone to die.

I should have said "any ounce of research" to refresh yourself on a massive plotline of the show, as you're clearly clueless.
Or just a troll.

Did The Hound go back to Winterfell with everyone? Does anyone here know?
yup with Arya's dagger, I mean he is technically undead so dragonglass should kill him right?

He did take credit for the discovery, though.
Yeah, it was kinda anticlimactic, but I guess it was necessary in order to avoid making Sansa and Arya look like idiots.
Words to live by.
Outside of Qyburn visiting her and then bombing off after Jaime catches them together, it's only her word so far.
Ohhhh, now it makes sense.
