It’s 6 episodes so what’d you expect. Especially after last season’s time “travel shite”.

Is Euron’s ships crew being entirely mute something thats been brought up before?
Or a convenient plot device so Theons guys can kill everyone without them raising an alarm?
It's been said several times, including his introduction. He had them tie him to a mast during a storm, then cut their tongues out afterwards.

Back to Qyburn a sec- not real sure how he's going to take to Euron, and vice versa. Qyburn's a mad scientist, but calm and practical. Euron is loud and overbearing. Now that Theon/Yara aren't in the mix to kill Euron anymore, maybe Qyburn does.
Afterall, I don't think Euron serves a purpose anymore. They don't need his fleet, as Cersei would probably keep the Golden Company on if she were to win.

When Ned and Jon last spoke he said they would talk about his mother next time they met. When Jon and Sam were talking about his true parentage, they were in the crypts with Ned’s statue nearby.

the only reason john would have a claim is b/c she's a woman, right?

she's rhaegar's sister so should be ahead of him, but-for their sex


Well, I don't know if they go through Westerosi succession in the show/books, but not in places like the U.K.

Their line of succession goes Charles>William>George (William's son). Harry doesn't even come into play unless they all die.

Hell of a catch The crypts were heavily foreshadowed in the books, and I wonder if that sequence is gonna play out the same way in Winds. I always thought there was something supernatural lurking in the crypts Jon had to find, but I guess discovering his true parentage down there actually makes sense too.

But he’s Rhaegar’s heir.

In Euron’s first scene on the bridge Balon says something along the lines of “last I heard you went crazy in a storm and your crew had to tie you down and when it passed you cut out their tongues”

What has Sansa ever done to warrant all the praise she gets for being some sort of political mastermind?

figuring out a stupid plot by littlefinger, basically
She played the LF situation very well. She played along with him, used him to take Winterfell and then killed him when she had no more use for him and could get away with it.

But I don't actually remember her being praised for being a mastermind, so her bar is pretty low.

Jon is his son so he is next in line and then Dany. Of course this is all meaningless because Jon doesn't want the throne and he's boning Dany

i thought claims usually pass down to heirs. but thats real life and im just assuming the way they handle succession is based off that. but i could be wrong

But he had Golden Company troops on his ship too. I’m pretty sure they’re not mute.

I thought it was a great episode. Jon riding a dragon was awesome.
