Guess they didn't want to waste time retelling the same story, but I thought the same thing. It was a BIG moment and Arya's reaction was what I wanted to see. Sansa's would have been painfully predictable and there's no point in seeing it tbh lol. Immediately dismisses it as something fake, realization as she looks back and forth from her brothers, acceptance as she calms down and lowers her head, panicked questions (does Danny know? what are you going to do?), we need to do something (as Jon says nothing, I told you to say nothing), and then anger over Jon saying he doesn't want it and he will continue to follow his queen and that's the end of the conversation. There you go lol.

Arya though, I am damn fucking curious what she would have thought and how she would have reacted.

Theres plenty of little things I can nitpick at; like Jaime and Brienne, they way they cut off Bran Telling Sansa and Arya about Jon(not allowing us to see their reactions), Gendry falling in love after 1 fuck, etc...

But the idea of turning Dany heel that fast.... her turning to the 'mad queen', little bit of a stretch. It took her dad YEARS AND YEARS to become 'mad', shes gonna turn mad from 1 dead dragon and a dead slave? Seems rushed, just like the last 2 seasons as a whole. Sure they added a bit more to the 'burning in side of her' showing how the North rallies around Jon, and how the truth is about to leak, Jon rejecting her in general... but still, seems too rushed.


So being angry and upset that one of her closest friends just died is unreasonable to you?

Also you want a single piece of exposition to be unnecessarily repeated multiple times?

Honestly I don't think it would have been much.

Something akin to what she said before about them being family maybe. Also everyone knows she will keep her word even though Sansa won't.

You're probably right, but I was still curious. I'm guessing she was going on her quest to murder Cersei no matter what (she'll be caught and murdered btw), but I'm curious if Jon's lineage has any impact on her list or her upcoming actions. I didn't think it was that big of a deal. While watching I immediately thought "Oh ya, we've had this explained three times now, are they really going to explain it again?" so, I wasn't too surprised that they skipped it lol, but after having shown all the other ones (which granted, were necessary), they could have squeezed in one last final one to make some people happy.

This episode, despite a lot of stuff being rushed, was a whole lot better then the last one.

/e

But lord almighty if I listen to the two idiots talk on the inside the episode then suddenly I end up liking the episode less and less. They should just not do these because neither can explain what's happening.

Dany just forgot about the Iron Fleet and Euron??? Brutal reasoning

Eh idk. I don't think it would have been that interesting tbh. Sansa is pretty good at being stone faced these days and I don't see Arya giving any fucks. Tbh I'm glad I didn't have to sit through the same fucking exposition again.

Basically a lock that Jaime saves Kings Landing again by killing Cersei.

So my biggest issue with this episode is like.. How the fuck did they get so many scorpions so quickly? Why double down especially after their trial scorpion kind of failed miserably? Not that logical tbh

Also Danny totally should have flew by the fleet on a wide arc and demolished Eurons fleet from behind.

It didn't fail though. It wounded the Drogon. If they could wound it with one they'd obviously assume you could kill one with 50.
