Brienne should give her sword to Jon where it belongs.
Dany is making him stay in Meereen for...reasons.
Count of Monte Sawed-Off

He got left behind in Mereen.
Daario went back to his home planet.

Sam will find the Turtle Hermit to learn his secret power to defeat the White Walkers.

So with the Howland Reed theory up in flames do we just assume GRRM forgot about him? Where the hell has he been?

they didn't kill him off at the tower of joy, and he was there in the first place. I imagine he could be in season 7 with some proof of Jon's heritage.

I believe so, but I don't think would want it to be honest.

So Dany is Jon's aunt?
I think that makes Jon the rightful heir if succession passes to the male. Is that how it works?

Yep. Bigger claim than Dany, even.
I think it varies depending on the society. She is a legitimate Targ while he's still a bastard. So does a male bastard trump a legitimate daughter?

She wasn't punished for that...

So who does Jon appoint as new Lord of the Dreadfort? I hope it's Tormund.
Is anyone going to take the word of a kid who saw it in a vision?
How else are they going to prove his legitimacy? If anyone who knew about it tried to convince Daenerys she would just assume they could be lying.
WOW what an episode.
I'm 100% sure now that Jaime is the Valonqar, and that Cersei's move to "Mad Queen" means that Jaime will have to repeat his murder of the mad king by taking her down. As much as I would love Arya to take down Cersei, I think prophecies have had their way more often than not in both the show and book

Howland Reed is going to stroll up with a birth certificate.
If he is actually made king he can legitimize himself, lol.
Jon still doesn't know... Wouldn't be surprised if he shows up next season.

He could be a legitimate Targaryen, they were into the whole polygamy thing. Generally speaking though, a male bastard isn't entitled to anything, unless they're legitimized. Then I guess they just fall into the line seeing how book Robb wanted Jon legitimized to Winterfell block Sansa and Tyrion.
Yeah man, that moment was a complete gut punch. Was not expecting it after the desolation that was the wildfire explosion, but it is perfect narratively and was executed in such a shocking way
I doubt he will play a role in the show.
In the books, on the other hand, we'll see.
I guess she was just born blind then.
Note: Daario died on his way back to his home planet.

Howland Reed would work. At least, in the books. Doesn't look like they're going down that road on the show.
Hopefully it's long form.

Don't they live in a swamp?
Count of Monte Sawed-Off

One got killed by undead, one got blow'd up in the sept, and the last is dragging around a giant.
I'm sad we never got zombie Hodor. Maybe next season.
Yeah and their Keep moves within the swamp. It's supposed to be hard to find and why they're able to stay out of conflicts.

We need Overwatch Play of the Games for Cersei and Lady Mormont
She did it once already to kill Maryn Trant in Braavos, the scene with the child prostitutes.

So I'm guessing Euron is going to try and marry Cersei now?
She needs a fleet since hers is:
Show: destroyed at Blackwater
Books: stolen
Are you in the right thread?
Hahaha, I love this picture because it reminds me of Blazing Saddles. "It's Headly."
Was Kevan in this episode? I didn't see him.
What is Ser Gregor doing to the Septa? He's a zombie. She'll be dead in 5 minutes.
How has Kings Landing not rioted when its so obvious that Cersei just took out the beloved Tyrells, The Faith and the King and proclaimed herself Queen overnight?
Why didn't Arya kill Jaime instead of wasting time killing several men and baking them?
Why did Jon just usurp Sansa's seat?
Why did Varys go all the way back to Mereen just to be on a boat headed for Westeros?
Why can't Dany, a powerful Queen not take a lover in Westeros when she had no qualms of doing so WHILE married in Mereen? She's dragging a huge army of foriegn eunachs and Dothraki with her but is worried about what people might think of her fucking some guy?
It was a really entertaining episode that, as always made little sense. It was funny how they awknowledged the Sand Snakes' reception.

Finished this episode finally, lets see.
1. Lady Mormont is MVP for this season. only a few scenes, but stole every one of them.
2. How in the world does Cersei plan on maintaining power here? She wiped out the popular faith, killed god knows how many lords and ladies of the court, and has a shaky at best claim. The second Danny lands, she's basically toast. I see her trying another 'burn them all!' and getting offed by Jamie.
3. Jon is king of the north eh? I wonder how his heritage coming to light could effect that. Not to mention if Bran shows up again, he's got the stronger claim to the throne of the north.
4. Looks like the north acted contrary to how little finger wanted. Can't see him ignoring that.
5. Red lady went south eh? Odds she runs into Danny? I'm betting yes.

She could have taken a hand full of faces before leaving Braavos. They aren't exactly heavy or large.
Yup - the scene at the Sept, the Lyanna/Jon reveal, the boats at the end...
Amazing music all around.
I haven't been following the discussion so my apologies if this has already been discussed.
Jon is still a bastard (Snow and now a Targaryen bastard) since it is implied that he is the son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark. Daenerys would be his aunt. So in the world of Westeros who has a better claim to the Iron Throne; a bastard son of a prince (Jon Snow/Targaryen) or the daughter of a previous king (Daenerys Targaryen)?
Will the North follow him once it is revealed that he's a Targaryen bastard? The Northern lords wouldn't be required to follow him as their liege lord.
Questions...questions... Season 7 will be an interesting one. April 2017 will be a long and excruciating wait!

Mad Queen confirmed.
Shes insane. I understand wanting to kill the High Septon, but the Tyrells? Fucking nutjob. I loved the way Jaime essentially knew what she had become. Queenslayer incoming next season?
