The one episode she didn't cry too

Good episode. I won't give away any spoilers since some may not have seen it yet, but the Castle Black scenes were very, very good. I wish they'd spent a little more time on it.

That last scene was idiotic, but I'm used to that with that character now.

a reply to: vor78

I totally agree, the last scene was like some awful Mexican soap opera. What were they thinking.

It was great to see Sansa and Jon finally reuniting, it's been a long time since the Winterfel kids were reunited

a reply to: zazzafrazz

Yep, the Stark reunion was the high point of the episode by far...something we've been waiting to see since the end of season 1. I was a little worried they were going to troll us this week and have Jon leave before Sansa arrived, but I was pretty sure this particular reunion was going to happen eventually the minute Littlefinger shipped Sansa off to Ramsay last season, but still...FINALLY!

That was surprising! Haha

We are on the same page again! I was sure he would be gone by the time Sansa arrived.

What is your thread about?

I think I am in trouble?

Nice thread!!!

a reply to: Quantum12

LOL ! oh dear me

Maybe someone in thread is game to try and give you a synopsis

a reply to: zazzafrazz

I just found your thread, so now I have many pages to read!

Jeez that ending was horrendous, all hail the barbarian godess of distractingly lopsided boobs.

Finally!

After 6 season we will finally get to see an EPIC battle scene.

There is at least two to look forward too.

The taking of Winter fell.

And kings landing.

3 if Jamie, and Cersei's plan works out.

Can't believe I am rooting for those two after all the snip they have done.

The High Sparrow has got to go.

WHAT ?

That ending was awesome.

The messed with the wrong 'little' girl

And of course throw in some gratitous nudity, but then again fire would burn her clothes off.

a reply to: zazzafrazz

I liked the episode. You knew the reason she was left by Drogon was as a set up for her taking charge of the Dothraki. Might as well burn them up and get naked for the first time in several seasons. God bless HBO.

I liked the Sansa/Jon scenes, she got tough.

And next week the synopsis hints that Bran will see the inside of the Tower of Joy.

Was so glad they didn't have Sansa show up AFTER Jon left. That reunion was something we all needed to see, something GOOD happen to the Starks. I kept wondering, what would motivate Jon now...then of course, enter Ramsay with Rickon.... At least now there is a realistic reason for him going to Winterfel. So, you have 2000 Wyldlings vs. his 5000...are you counting the Giants? Because....you know.... Betting he could get some of the houses in the North behind him though.

I know I'm in the minority, but I've been rooting for Cersei for some time. I seriously can't wait until she and Jaime put the Sparrow in the grave. As bad as she is, his endless prattling about making everyone into beggars just makes me want to squish his head like a grape.

I'm also glad that Marjoree's "change of faith" is an act.

Did I miss what the slavers get for ending slavery within 7 years? I think I missed Tyrion's bargaining chip.

Yay, the Iron Isles. A dead end storyline for nothing. Why is the show even covering this? Do they play ANY role at all in the events to come? Would have been time better spent on Arya, or dare I say, even Bran.

Ok, I have to disagree with most here. I thought the ending scene with Dany was pretty awesome. (and not just because we missed seeing her naked...and so did Jorah, lol). I actually was thinking she'd take control with Drogon showing up, but then, once I saw the fire braziers in the scene, I kind of guessed where they were going with it. The nudity was of course, to make sense, as her clothes NOT burning off simply wouldn't have been consistent. Since we've previously seen other Dothraki respond in awe at the whole unburnt thing, it makes sense we'd see this again. I imagine she can make things pretty rough with the slavers when she returns to the cities...though she's probably in a good position to head to Westeros soon.

My guesses are:

Cersei and company purge the Sparrow. Marjoree is back, Tomlin seen as a stronger King, and Cersei is put on the HIgh Council.

Jon retakes the North and is recognized as a Stark. Theon's relatives end up killing each other, and he takes the Iron Isles (reluctantly). He mends things with Jon, and aids him in the North.

Dany returns to her city, retakes the other cities, and sees the wisdom in Tyrion's actions in her absence. She creates a fleet, trains her dragons, and eventually sails to Westeros along with Tyrion. Messande rules in her absence.

Bran's flashbacks fill in the gaps, reveal Jon's birthright (and Tyrion's), and the threat of the White Walkers.

With Jon in the North, Dany in the South, and Tyrion with her, they eventually all face the threat when the White Walkers army breaches the Wall. The Song (battle) of Fire (dragons) and Ice (white walkers) concludes.

The slavers are to be compensated for their slaves at the 7 year mark.

Also, I am glad we did not get another deus ex Drogon moment, it cheapens the impact.

Don't forget now.

Little Fingers is on the march with 'his' army too.

Jon retakes the North and is recognized as a Stark.

The red witch keeps calling him the 'prince'.

I am taking that as proof Jon is a Targeryan.

The 'bastard' son was just a cover for what ever reason.

That is in reference to being Azor Ahai, the 'Prince that was Promised'.

Well, the "bastard" thing was Ned's method of hiding him for so long.

The slavers are to be compensated for their slaves at the 7 year mark.

So, something that could be done right now.... Again, not really seeing the incentive on their part. Weak writers? I mean, I guess they'll save money from NOT financing the Sons of the Harpy...but still the onus on them as to how to supplement their income as they reduce their slaves.

Good point, forgot about that small part in the episode. Mostly because the weird little brat should "go flying" like so many others.
