I don't mind it. But when you loo back it's a whole lot of women power type of movement.

So was that not Nymeria? How could it not be her? I'm just wondering why Arya said it wasn't her.

It was obviously Nymeria but what Arya said definitely confused a lot of Hodors.




I was a little disappointed on the size of Balerion's skull. Thought it would be way bigger than that considering he was 200+ years old and dragons never stop growing.

So from the preview I can gather that..

Euron returns with the gift or gifts
Dany finds out about Euron
The Unsullied take Castely Rock
Jamie takes Highgarden or maybe Dorne
Tarly soldiers?
Dany meeting Jon
Sansa is somewhere

And how can a fleet sneak up on another fleet without anyone sounding an alarm?


I would also like an answer to this. Is Yara and everyone in that fleet so incompetent that Euron got in ramming range before anyone said anything or is this Euron magic?

Oh yeah, I just mean that almost all of the power players at this point are female. Especially since Jon seems to be really flaky about being da King in da Norf, you have Cersei/Danny/Sansa leading 6 out of the 7 kingdoms.

More like all the powerful men killed each other off besides Jon, Euron, and Randyll.
Cersei fells arse backwards into power and Sansa is a temporary queen. Dany is really the one who legitimately gained power

Even Jamie was begging Tarlly to go along with Sersei just to not piss her offf.

The women on the show have long been he undercurrent of power anyway. Ceresi has been in charge for a long time now, just through her sons. Dany has been Dany since her Khaleesi days. Sansa is really the only one that has really changed positions of power. The Queen of Thorns has been running the Tyrell show for quite some time as well.

If people are legitimately upset about the powerful roles women have on this show, they haven't been paying attention since Season 1.

It's great to know the actual cure for grey scale after all this time was just to cut it off like a scab. Riveting stuff.

To be fair, the Maester himself said the guy that invented the "cure" died of greyscale himself and that it hasn't been used on such an advanced case.

I'd say they have some reasonable skepticism over whether it works. I wouldn't be surprised if he inevitably ends up having to consume dragon glass instead.

"No one will do this procedure anymore, it's too dangerous."
"Isn't the alternative that they inevitably go crazy and die?"
"Yeah"
"So why not?"
"Uhhhhh shut up"

The last maester to perform the procedure got grayscale, hence why it's dangerous.

Yet they are just examining Jorah in the same room.... after he tried to grab Sam.

They clearly don't seem that risk-averse to Greyscale

If you've been paying attention, the cure is supposedly something to do with dragon glass. Just because the last thing we saw was Sam cutting it off doesn't mean that's all there is to it.

And lots of people saying "Jorah cured" as part of the summation of the episode. We don't actually know how it went yet.

Clearly, they're saying it's too dangerous to the surgeon performing the procedure.
