That was great, but not as impactful as I was expecting given everyone's reaction.

I reckon whatever Little Finger is planning, it requires Sansa to somewhat trust him, which is why he has stopped to manipulate her and just be honest with her (possibly in part because she sees through him now).

John Snow and Denaerys are gonna get married imo.

Is Little Finger on the list? I've a feeling that Dagger is going to be for him.

Cersei
The Mountain
Ser Ilyn Payne
Melisandre
Beric Dondarion
Thoros of Myr
The Hound

That's the list. She might let the last three off though, now they're a bit less shitty than before.

Like I said before, she probably thinks that The Hound was killed by Brienne. She beleives that Thoros and Beric fucked Gendry over, so I reckon they're still fair game.

Brienne didn't kill The Hound (well, no-one did, but Arya didn't think she had). She (Arya) stabbed The Hound in the chest after Brienne had kicked his ass.

I concur. Though she will find all three at the same time, and it will be interesting to see what she makes of it. Her storyline is interesting; she looked to be on a self-destructive road obsessed with revenge, but is now normalising a bit back to family. Will she still head South or instead North? Where does she feel is most important?

No she didn't. She nicks his gold and buggers off without touching him despite his pleas for her to end him.

That was an amazing episode. The scene with the dragon was absolutely 100% fucking nailed. The strafing runs, the Dothraki running straight through the fire, standing up on their horses. Poor Jamie in the middle of it all just gawping. What a marvellous spectacle.

Only because she thinks he's dead, or because if he survived he has somehow been redeemed?

I might need to look this up but I'm pretty positive she takes him off the list before the fight.

After successfully hiding from Brienne and Podrick, Arya finds Sandor beaten and with his leg broken, suffering from his infected neck and the fall from the cliff. He tells her that it's the end of the line for him and demands wine but she has none. He then demands that she kill him putting him out of his misery and cross his name off her list, unaware she has already removed his name from her list.

In fairness, stunt-folk have been setting themselves on fire for ages.

Also I'm sure I remember reading that that's not even Jamie and they CGI'd his head on to the stunt rider after.

The horse deserves the praise though.

Do you think....?

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!
John Snow is a Targaryen? The Dragon appeared to like him in last nights episode. I would also think that 3 people will be needed to use the dragons in a battle or to attack the walkers? I wonder if Tyrion is one as well, he went to see the Dragons after they were locked up for a while and lived to tell the tale

Of course he is! And he's legitimate, as of last night's Gilly reveal.

I liked how they teased finally making R+L=J 100% canon, but stopped an inch short of it because Samwell Bloody Tarly wasn't listening.

Speaking of fanservice, I guffawed at "thought you might still be rowing."

I did think the crew going out North of the wall are a better suicide squad than the actual Suicide Squad from the movie.

I can't help thinking they rowed there awfully quickly. Like in a few hours.

In GoT seasons 1 through 6, the bit from "I will go north of the Wall and capture a wight" to "here we are leaving the gate, having collected five other characters along the way" would have spanned six episodes. In season 7, it was about 15 minutes. I'm OK with that.

There was a Reddit post showing how far Jon had travelled since Hardhome (when he saw the Night's King) compared with how far the army of the dead has moved. Suffice to say, the dead move slow

Yeah but how are they going to get past the wall? If they could just smash through then wouldn't they have done it already?

On the one hand, they shamble instead of marching. But on the other hand, they don't need to stop to eat or sleep and don't need to keep pace with any support logistics that a living army would need. So in conclusion: wtf?
