veekid:

Even though it’s great to see the twists and turns of the political drama unfolding in Westeros , this season has been rushing a whole lot of things. Episode 5 was the most rushed episode I’ve come across. Whhhhhhhaaaaaaaaatttttt?

Jon meets Drogon: Best takeaway from the episode. A moment I was personally waiting for. It was almost perfect until they just moved past this like nothing happened. Only two people have touched a dragon and survived before this(Tyrion and Dany). I felt the scene needed more dialogues. Dany was surprised that he touched Dragon with ease , but says NOTHING? Frustrating!

Jaime and Tyrion meet: Expected more from this much sought after re-union. The two brothers deeply care for each other but this scene was bereft of any emotion from Jaime. It was quite disappointing given that this is the first time they met after Tyrion killed Tywin and escaped. This scene had the potential to unravel a lot of emotions which Tyrion was holding on to, but then again it got cut abruptly.

Ser Davos and Gendry: Why deprive a character of it’s development for seasons and then suddenly pop that character into the main plot now? If Robert Baratheon’s last living son has a role to play in the peak of the plot, they should have bloody well done a solid character development. Gendry is re-introduced and suddenly catapulted into the ‘Wage war on the Night King’ squad just because he does not want to sit out another war.

Jorah Mormont reunites with Dany : Cured of greyscale, Mormont is back in the Dany army. The reunion brings a trusted aide to the council of Dany. Given that Varys and Tyrion have ulterior motives, it would serve well for Dany to have Mormont at this moment in the plot.

Dany’s council meet : Dany’s advisers decide that they will bring a wight back and prove to Cersei that the threat is real. This plot line seemed really stupid to me. So Dany, whose one true wish to reclaim her throne, is just going to sit and wait until her minuscule army fights against the Night’s King and bring back one wight? Heck, she doesn’t even know the extent of the threat beyond the Wall. Why would she risk her life goal for something like this? She’d make a terrible queen who listens to poor advice.
[b] Everything else you said was pretty straightforward but the five points above went off course, me thinks.

- by now you should know that the penultimate episode of GoT is always the most lit of them all and the episode preceding it is mostly just setup. By and by, this episode built up the tension perfectly and set the many characters on a collision course. Can't ask for more than that.
Your point about Jon & Drogon, Davos & Gendry, Tyrion and Jamie all fall under this. Unless you want to watch an episode the length of a mainstream movie then there is nothing wrong with the little dialog we got in those scenes.

-Varys and tyrion have no ulterior motive, at least not now. Danaerys is on the verge of a major misstep and she needs objective voices,now more than ever. not a blind follower with a crush on her the size of Drogon. The moment she discards of tyrion, that's the end of the line for her.

- So basically, dany shouldn't have believed Jon's story about the Wight walkers.
The same Danaerys, a woman who has emerged unscathed from infernos, rides dragons and gave birth to a semi reptilian baby after a witch performed a spell to render her husband comatose?

With the things her eyes have seen and what she has experienced, i think she, more than anyone who hasn't seen the night king has more reason to believe in the plausibility of an Undead army. [/b]

Cybertext:


I think it was the letter she was forced to write to robb stark by Cersie in season one


The letter she wrote stated : Robb i write to you with a heavy heart. Our good king Robert is dead, killed from wounds he took in a boar hunt. Father has been charged with treason. He conspired with Roberts brothers against my beloved Joffery and tried to steal his throne. The Lannister are treating me very well and provide me with every comfort. I beg you, come to King's Landing, swear fealty to King Joffery and prevent any strife between the great houses of Lannister and Stark.
- Sansa

This makes it obvious what his plot could be. He wants to create enmity between the two starks, bring trouble and gain control of Sansa mind. From there he can attain to be the Lord if Winterfell.
But he forgot someone, the all seer, Brandon Stark.

After blowing up the sept and tommen didnt committ suicide, will cersei kill him to become queen,

Cersei did not have to kill Tommen to Rule Westeros.

Re-visit the conversation Jamie had with Cersei about Ollena's motivations to murder Joffrey - The answer to your question is waiting for you there.

Also am I the only one that dislikes how the plot is setting the stage for a split between Jamie and Cersei?

Every Time Cersei says anything, Jamie looks at her like she's mad.

It's annoying, because Cerseis logic is absolutely sound, and her arguments and positions make sense.

are you kidding me ? ...cersei is insane ,she's actually a kind of person that will burn down the entire kingdom before she bend a knee ...what am I saying sef undecided ...someone that almost poison her own child when stannis almost took kings landing

Come on!!! The one redeeming quality Cersei had was how much she loved all her children.
She'd have never hurt Tommen.

Nihilist:

Tyrion is a high born noble not a commoner. Commoners have little to no rights in all the 7 kingdoms of Westeros. That's not even debatable. Absolute Monarchy and Democratic rights are diametric opposites. In a land where your bloodline not your ability determines your right to rule, there is no such thing as 'human rights'

Yes, the one that demanded that the soldiers of an opposing army submit to her rule, or get barbecued, using their oga and his son to set an example.

This argument does not even make sense. How many trials have you seen held for commoners in Westeros? Besides, you have to be in power first before you even consider trying your enemies. Cersei's blowing up of the Sept was THE move to take power. Collateral Damage is Collateral damage but it is what it is in Westeros - Commoners don't count.
[b] it is the same today as it was then.
Common citizens are murdered everyday by the so-called 'authorities'. Doesn't make it right..... it is just easier to gloss over due to the lack of visibility and awareness. No one dares execute a higborn without trial because the whole kingdom is watching, whereas a commoner is slaughtered and his family silenced. Just because the commoner is denied his rights doesn't mean they don't exist.
Danaerys is at war, casualties are a given. Not everyone would've so much as given the commander of his opponent's army a chance to defect.
An offer he rejected, which was the one thing that made no sense in this episode. This was the same Randyll who turned on Olenna almost as fast as Varys travels between continents. And he couldn't bend the knee to save himself and his son? Right.
Cersei wasn't at war, she simply didn't want any challenge to her totalitarianism.
At this rate, the mad king would seem like a Saint in the eyes of the people in a few years.
Even tyrants know that it is easier to hold onto power when you at least have the people on your side. Cersei doesn't care.... So like I said: she crazy. [/b]

She's so headstrong. . . . .all brawl and no brains honestly.
And what is up with Bran? Why hasn't he exposed Littlefinger for the crook he is, especially now LF is bent on driving a wedge between his sisters. undecided
He's too busy brooding under the weirwood tree & spying on the NK with his drones.

And how did I forget to mention the most badass character, ever is going to be on our screens come next week?
Everyone should kneel before the NK in all his sinister grace.

I fucking_love that dude.

Please can i kow the app. Thanks.

The app is called showbox and it is available for Android devices. You can watch and download HD videos from it. It is not a Google app so you won't see it on play store. Also make sure you adjust your settings for smooth installation. It is 100% legit.

LF have started plotting his death... There is no way he is escaping this time...He is surrounded and he knows that... Knowing Arya is now a sword woman and Bran revealing to him "chaos is a ladder"... And still going deceitfully to collide the two sisters is suicidal.... he is a caged rat now but the death that will take a dog does not allow it perceive the smell of feaces....

If Jon seats on the iron throne.... Whoever marries sansa and am suspecting Gendry, will winterfell still be of the starks This is really boggling me.

Littlefingers time is almost up, Arya will kill him when she learns the plots he is trying to twist and she will learn with Brann around. Cersie basically agreed for peace to reign now, cos the odds are against her, so Jon will comeback with a white walker and present it to Cersie, we all know danerys will save Jon with her dragons, perhaps that's where viserion will be killed by the NK. Their mission North of the wall will be a success, although lives will be lost, Dondarrion, Tormund, heck even Jorah might be killed. The Hound, Gendry and Jon should survive

Nobody is talking about Cersie's pregnancy??!

Thought d witch said she was only gonna have 3 kids.

Something is not adding up.
Pregnancy that we will use straw and suck out. She ain't giving birth to nothing. She knows the pregnancy won't last, she's just trying to appeal to Jamie's heart by telling him.

She can just command Drogon to roast Jon Snow. She has shown us many times that her driving ambition is more important to her than love.

Lol... Her ambition may be bigger than love but it is obvious she needs a man. She needs her womanhood taken care of.
Her reaction shows she is attracted to Jon, she look surprised that Jon could tame the dragon. Scared as well.

Baelish is beginning to overplay his hand,and sadly I share your sentiments. This only leads to one outcome: his head on a spike....or a pyre. Make baba for Wights dem no reanimate am.

Oh and wasn't Arya the one giving gendry fuck_me eyes?
One smooch from the baratheon_bastard and them panties_are coming off.
The girl could really use an outlet to relieve herself of all that pent up aggression.

The thing is Arya's been wary with Sansa since season one when the Butcher's son was killed all because Sansa lied for Joeffery. She knows what her "Suegbe" sister is capable of.
