GOT season 7 episode 5! East watch
Whats up?
After last weeks episode I am expecting the action to continue right from the begining to end.
I realized we only have three episodes left this year, so does that mean next week is the 'surprise' week? Personally I expect non stop action...
I'm still hoping Jamie ends up on the throne!

I'm praying Tormund survives!

Heading to the north. What a freaking bad ass seven dudes.

in the narrative. The Hound would never have submitted to imprisonment without severe damage/resistance. That they were detained without a scratch to any of them, is not all that believable. But the show needs to gloss over reasonable details to get to the end game, I suppose.
It's a bit weird to have had such deliberate pacing for six seasons and now essentially be at breakneck speed.
August 14th, 2017 at 9:35 AM ^
in the fight somehow. They probaby submitted just to get some shelter and food. Maybe they had that conversation with Tormund but they're kept in a cell until Jon arrives just to make sure they're legit.
August 14th, 2017 at 10:25 AM ^
Tormund didn't know Jon was coming unless Jon sent a raven from Dragonstone right before he left because they didnt' hatch this crazy plan until the last minute. Jon's intention was to come back to Winterfell.
It's possible, but again, it's a leap.

it's too bad that those kinds of encounters have to be glossed over and left to the imagination at this pace.
How good could a scene have been with Beric, the Hound and the brotherhood without banners approaching Eastwatch and confronting Giantsbane, whether it was hostile or a negotiation or whatever?
And yes, it is still a major stretch that the Hound willingly, peacefully walked into a jail cell for it to be locked indefinitely.

I'm guessing that long awaited reunion btwn Arya and John will be posponed once Sansa runs Arya off after Littlefinger sets her up.

what role could he possibly have moving forward? His ultimate goal was to marry a stark and sit on the iron throne. that aint happening in the time left... he dead

It would also be stupid. This is a show that has the bad people winning 90% of the time. This is cliché, but someone good will be crowned king or queen. I cannot see a villain winning the throne. It has to be either Jon or Daenerys.
August 14th, 2017 at 3:59 PM ^
Yeah it's obviously Jon's story and they made that extra clear last night. LF isn't gonna make it but I'm hopeful they can have the good guys win and not have it be too trope-y.
Then again, there are just too many deus ex machinas right now between dragons, Raven Bran, Arya Face/Offs and Sam reading something very important in a book.
August 14th, 2017 at 2:16 AM ^
since she knows she can't win in the short term with brute force. Baelish and Cersei quite possibly could play the game together and somehow wedge their way between Dany, the north and their allies.

a Lannister agent is if that brings him any closer to getting down and dirty with Sansa.
August 14th, 2017 at 2:34 PM ^
is an agent of everyone and no one, at all times. And yes, he absolutely could be in touch with Cersei already about his current plot.
I wonder if at any point Jaime and Cersei will realize that he was the one working with Olenna to kill Joffrey and get Sansa out of King's Landing. My guess is that won't be addressed in the show.
August 14th, 2017 at 3:37 PM ^
I think Littlefinger thinks he is being smart, but with the powers of Bran and Arya, he good as dead...and i will enjoy watching him die.
Arya is too wise now, and Bran, well he can see everyting and he is in winterfell...sooo
August 13th, 2017 at 10:31 PM ^
I thought I'd seen all the episodes, but I guess I missed the one where they installed an air tank in Jaime's golden hand.
Arya knows some things, yet still has a lot to learn.
August 13th, 2017 at 10:34 PM ^
What is hype may never die! Holy shit so hyped for Jon and his all star raiding party to kick some ass!
Also the definitive R+L=J reveal by Gilly was awesome-- with Rhaegar and Lyanna actually being married, Jon has a better claim to the throne than Dany.. not that he's gonna want it.
Gendry with Robert's hammer is too awesome as well! Other interesting tidbit is that Robert killed Rhaegar at the Battle of the Trident, so who knows if/when Jon finds out his parentage I wonder if he and Gendry will ever talk about that with their newfound bromance

Agreed, this is just a way to manipulate Jamie and keep him loyal to her. Also no way she knew Tyrion was in the city and she didn't try to kill him. That does not match her character at all.

just a replica he made. i mean how could a flee-bottom bastard come to own a fabled war-hammer like that?
August 14th, 2017 at 9:40 AM ^
his father, Gendry is a badass with it, and it is also the weapon that crushed Rheagar's chest and breastplate. Mentioned above ... the hammer that killed Jon's father/Dany's brother.
August 14th, 2017 at 11:16 AM ^
Yeah...I don't think that is the exact hammer, too. Like someone else mentioned - how could he possibly have gotten it? There is no plausible chance.
August 14th, 2017 at 12:10 PM ^
I think the two main reasons for the Jon/Gendry bromance was a bit of the fan service that the showrunners love to throw in and also trying to get people invested a bit into Gendry so that it is a bit more heartwrenching when he dies beyond the wall.

I can't wait for it to revealed that Tyrion is a Targaryen and the half brother of Dany. There has been three characters with a connection to the dragons. Dany obvious, Tyrion confirmed last season when he freed the two dragons kept underneath Mareen, and Jon last night. I totally buy the Joanna Lannister/Mad King theory.
August 14th, 2017 at 9:16 AM ^
That theory makes much sense. Tywin said right before Tyrion killed him, "You're no son of mine." Tywin knew he was going to be killed, so he felt the need to finally get that off his chest.
August 14th, 2017 at 11:13 AM ^
August 14th, 2017 at 12:08 PM ^
Remember when Tyrion asked for his birthright of Casterly Rock? Tywin said he tolerates Tyrion "because there is no way to prove that you're not mine." He could have suspected his true parentage all along. But couldn't speak out against it due to Aerys willingness to kill everyone at even the slightest hint of criticism or plotting. And since he couldn't go public with it, he didn't want to murder someone that the entire realm believes to be his son and earn a title of kinslayer or kidslayer. Especially after Jaime earned the kingslayer moniker. Tywin is all about legacy. He wouldn't kill Tyrion unless he had proof. Also why it's hilarious he died on the shitter.
August 14th, 2017 at 12:43 PM ^
One thing that holds me back from the Tyrion as Targaryen theory is that Tywin could have offed him well before the Joffrey poisoning. If he really was not Tywin's, why wait until then to engineer his demise?
August 14th, 2017 at 2:34 PM ^
He did try once before. put him in the vanguard of one of the battles, where he got hit in the head and knocked out and missed the whole thing.
August 14th, 2017 at 3:51 PM ^
That's a good point. I guess I just see Tywin as likely to be really direct and really efficient if he had decided to off Tyrion once Tyrion's mom was dead (which was at his birth). No reason to raise him to adulthood if he held him in such contempt as his non-son.
August 13th, 2017 at 11:22 PM ^
It felt like that got majority short shrifted.
Here comes Dany roaring in on Drogon to scare the shot out of Jon and get him to bend the knee and he goes and makes a new friend, that should have started a longer conversation o on, I get the writers aren't ready to have Jon find out his heritage just yet, but that needed more exploration.
August 14th, 2017 at 12:27 AM ^
It really seems like the show isn't going to reveal Jon's heritage to him until after he bangs his aunt. The way she was looking at him.. the next time they meet bones shall be jumped.
