Spoilers Game of Thrones - Season 7

[Reverend]

While I'm relieved they didn't follow through on all the tension building between Arya & Sansa, I'm still a little irritated with the way it's been foreshadowed. This show has pulled the wool over and indeed the rug from under many times in the past but I don't think it was ever dishonest with the audience to do it and that's what this feels like.

"You looked so beautiful pushing me out that window with your right hand. Say, what happened to it?"

"Oh and by the way, I had Hodor break the neck of the man that chopped it off...sooo....you're welcome...?"

 

[Captain Shaw]

Great episode.
Just wonder how far the white walkers will get before the army can meet up with them.
Though I really wanted to see Bronn reaction to the white walker, guessing the rumor about Jerome and Lena are true.
Whichever is the one who is refusing to be on set at the same time as the other one needs to start acting more professional, has the the story ends I have a feeling there will be less distance between the characters and it will make it more difficult for them not to be in at least one scene together.

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

We only have 6 episodes next season (hopefully nice long ones).. will there be enough time for Daenerys to have her 'cest baby, Tormund and Brienne to have their monster babies, Cersei to have HER 'cest baby and ..

 

[Captaindemotion]

You know how the Wall is sort of stepped-up on the back end near Eastwatch, with a series of ledges instead of being pure vertical? Thormund and Baric didn't have time to get all the way to the bottom, but they did jump off on one of those ledges, and that's where they were standing when they saw the scene of the Wall coming down in front of them.

Yeah, I think I caught that (gonna re-watch the episode now), thanks, but it looked like the Night King's army was just preparing to overrun the place. One wouldn't expect too many survivors. Though I suppose two characters like that would be expected to get a definite onscreen death as oppose to just not being seen again amid the mayhem.

[Captain Shaw]

Do Theon's men know he's had his wedding vegetables chopped off or do they now think he's got ball's of Iron?
And I'm I the only one to get a little sad when I only see two dragons flying about?

And I'm I the only one to get a little sad when I only see two dragons flying about?

Unfortunately for everyone, the third one is flying as well.

 

[Reverend]

Just wonder how far the white walkers will get before the army can meet up with them.

Presumably either at or very near Winterfell. For dramatic purposes if nothing else. I think it's a safe bet Castle Black will be their first stop though. Maybe not the entire army, but it makes sense for a good portion to sweep westward along the wall.

Whichever is the one who is refusing to be on set at the same time as the other one needs to start acting more professional, has the the story ends I have a feeling there will be less distance between the characters and it will make it more difficult for them not to be in at least one scene together.

I make a point not to follow celebrity gossip so this is news to me. Regardless, given Jamie's departure I think it's a safe bet Bronn will either be right behind him, since he apparently has more friends on the opposing side at this point. That or heading to Essos with as much gold as he can carry. I mean who knows, maybe Daario is hiring?

Do Theon's men know he's had his wedding vegetables chopped off or do they now think he's got ball's of Iron?

I think the main takeaway here is that he can take a beating and still get up. One of the dubious upshots of being a guest of House Bolton is that he now has a much higher pain threshold than most.

We only have 6 episodes next season (hopefully nice long ones).. will there be enough time for Daenerys to have her 'cest baby, Tormund and Brienne to have their monster babies, Cersei to have HER 'cest baby and ..

At the speed that army walks, the inbreds will probably be toddlers by the time the dead make it past Winterfell.

I was under the impression was only missing his sausage, and still had his dangly bits. Wasn't there some discussion about it being more tortuous to be able to have the proper glands to be interested, but not the ability to consummate the need?

I remember Littlefinger going on about whether Varys had the veg but no meat or nothing at all, but I don't recall any similar discussion in regards to Theon. Just that Ramsey sent whatever he cut off to Pyke. The show ware mercifully non-specific as to the exact nature of the contents of that box.

 

[M.A.C.O.]

Okay, so the number 3 keeps popping up in the GoT mythos.

Dany had 3 dragons. Also, the Targaryen sigil is of a three headed dragon.

Cersei had 3 children. Joffery, Myrcella, and Tommen

Dany is the 3rd child of Aerys Targaryen.

Jon is the 3rd child of Rhaegar Targaryen.

There are only 3 living Starks.

There were 3 Baratheon brothers. Robert, Stannis and Renly

There were 3 siblings that made up the monarchy of Dorne. Ellia, Oberyn, and Doran

The 3 Sand Snakes. Obara, Nymeria and Tyene.

The 3 Lannister children. "The dwarf, the cripple and the mother of madness". ~ Tyrion

 

[Forbin]

Martin's being Biblical with the threes!

 

[Mr Awe]

Cersei lied to him and forced him into a corner; she also nearly killed him. She was the catalyst for the dissolution of their seemingly unbreakable bond, not him.

And since I specifically denied that HE would betray HER, I was completely right.

That's not really what you were saying. You said there wasn't much daylight between them even though others of us saw the wheels turning in Jaime's head before. It was a growing problem that came to its logical conclusion.

But, whatever. If you need to feel you were right, be my guest!

 

[The Nth Doctor]

Well Brienne had to be out of Winterfell so that Littelfinger wouldn't get suspicious when she doesn't step in between the sisters as they "fight" each other. Also, Sansa probably deemed her too honorable to bring her in on the scheme.

Yeah, I understand why they were sent down there, but they didn't really serve much of a purpose during the proceedings. Their presence seemed more forced so the show could have all of these little reunions. Don't get me wrong, I loved the reunions, especially Brienne's confrontation with Jaime, but from a story perspective, it didn't make much sense for them to be there.

And will we see Daario among the foreign mercenaries or is he content where we last saw him?

Well, he's the leader of the Second Sons which is a different group from the Golden Company. The history of those two organizations haven't been discussed in the show, but their histories, particularly the Golden Company's, have particular meaning. It would be weird to have Daario suddenly be part of the Golden Company, especially fighting against Daenerys.

"Oh and by the way, I had Hodor break the neck of the man that chopped it off...sooo....you're welcome...?"

Now that's what I want to hear Bran say to Jaime. It's a great mixture of exactly not what Jaime expected to hear from Bran considering what Jaime did to him and shows off Bran's continuous creepiness.

Though I really wanted to see Bronn reaction to the white walker, guessing the rumor about Jerome and Lena are true.
Whichever is the one who is refusing to be on set at the same time as the other one needs to start acting more professional, has the the story ends I have a feeling there will be less distance between the characters and it will make it more difficult for them not to be in at least one scene together.

That's the first time I've heard that rumor but I don't follow celebrity gossip either. Nonetheless, there wasn't any reason for Bronn to be there anyways and it makes sense that he would leave with Podrick.

Okay, so the number 3 keeps popping up in the GoT mythos.

True, but that's also a common literary device.

The 3 Sand Snakes. Obara, Nymeria and Tyene.

Actually, there are 8 Sand Snakes, four adult, four children. Oberyn even alludes to there being more in the show during a conversation with, I believe, Tyrion.

 

[Xerxes82]

I thought Sansa should've killed him though, given Ned's line about he who passes sentence also swinging the sword. That would also have been a bit less predictable than Arya (though it was fitting that she used that knife).

Aside from the obvious fact that it doesn't fit Sansa, while it does Arya, I actually think this was thematically relevant. Ned absolutely believed that whomever passed the sentence should swing the sword, and Jon even reiterated that very same idea this season. But, in a thematic sense, though not a literal one, that is what happened. Bran brought the evidence, Sansa passed the sentence, Arya carried out the execution. The united, restored family of Starks executed Littlefinger.

That's because Data sent that number to the next time loop, did you not watch the episode? LOL

Sorry - what's going on between these two? And why (allegedly)?

I like that way of looking at it. Having said that, Sansa fed Ramsay to his own dogs, albeit more by omission than commission, so I don't know that execution doesn't fit her.

"And the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out!" ~ Brother Maynard's assistant, Monty Python and the Holy Grail

There's some kind of Monty Python foreshadowing going on. So that's how Game of Thrones is going to end. When the combined forces of the living have their major face off with the Night King and the White Walkers, a large British police paddy wagon will pull up just in time before the two sides clash and arrest the Night King.

 

[Captaindemotion]

Sorry - what's going on between these two? And why (allegedly)?

They dated in the past, it ended badly and supposedly it's in her contract that they don't share scenes or meet onset.
