So they're loudly foreshadowing that Arya is going to be the one to down the undead dragon.

Surprised we didn't get any in the first episode. Really thought Beric and Tormund were gonna bite it for a moment there because I assumed someone had to die.

I was certain there was going to be a fight scene, at least. I figured a bunch of wights surrounding them were going to get up when the kid started screaming.

What makes you say that? The weapon she's having Gendry make?

Yeah, they're focusing on her having a special weapon made, so it's going to have a special purpose.

In each season, the fourth episode has always had some kind of "holy poo poo" moment at the end. So you might be right with Arya slaying a dragon lol. Arya the Dragonslayer :black101:

Arya is one of the most popular characters in the show, there's no way she doesn't do something "badass".

Westworld's first season wasn't really that great in retrospect. It had great actors and the benefit of obscuring some of the so-so stuff from the audience.

I think it's pretty obvious what's gonna happen. Things will look real bad for Jaime, then Bran is gonna roll up and deliver a stirring defense.

Well that and it would make it much easier for people to figure that Joffrey is his son and not King Robert’s.



Though even if he didn't figure Joffrey was a bastard, Robert would absolutely have Jaime and Cersei executed. It is wasn't embarrassment.

I mentioned that excuse and still think it is a very silly argument. Plus, dying also seems like it should have an effect on your place in the succession, but, well, for obvious reasons I can see them not having standards for how to handle that particular scenario at least.

What would really happen is that Dany-supporters would say what you said, and Jon-supporters would say what they said, and if no one backed down, there would be a civil war.

He really doesn't even have to do that. If Northerners would rather be ruled by their half-Northern ex-king than a Southern stranger, they might not care if they privately believe him or not. That's politics for ya.

Bronn: “Fair point” *takes crossbow*

Or maybe this is supposed to be a point about how stupid Cersei is.

Eh, you might as well roll the dice. It's not like she loses anything by hiring Bronn, and he's one of the few that can get close to both of them.

One thing bothering me about the show was Sam's reaction to news about his father and brother, especially considering what they thought of him and how he was treated.

I was hoping for a little bit of conflict between what he felt and guilty feelings of relief or even gratitude.

That's what happened. He was fine with what happened when he thought it just was father, because his father was a dick. But he liked his brother.

In conclusion, if Bronn tries to kill Tyrion, people will bitch about how it's bad writing, and if Bronn doesn't try to kill Tyrion, people will bitch about how it's bad writing.
