    Tyrion helped Jaimie escape. Tyrions ass is on the line.

    After she roasted the city if he was smart he would take off. However, his character in the show is not smart anymore.

    It just occurred to me that he totally turned punk by betraying Varys. Varys is the only reason Tyrion is alive

    I'm not sure wtf happened to Tyrion. I guess I'll find out in the directors notes about how they gave him a send-off with a dwarf joke because that's how the series started.

    Ep was pure dragon gore p*rn. Seems like they broke the bank for the visuals

    I did not mind this episode overall, but Arya should be dead, it looked like Danny leveled the whole city. Also the fight of the two brothers was ridiculous.

    However, my biggest gripe is how easily the dragon was killed the last episode, yet today he had a cloaking device from Star Trek, quite silly.

    Apparently if you sacrifice one dragon, you gain an extra agility attribute for the other dragon. DaNEROs got that game genie. Yawn, Yawn, Snooze, Snooze, Bore, Dull, Bore, Dull, A, B, Start.

    Murder, Murder, KIll, Kill.

    How the hell is there still a serviceable amount of dothraki?

    For Euron to be such a badass, he sure did have a hard time with a one hand man.

    I think Michal Bay was a guest director for this episode.

    Arya isnt a Stark, shes no wolf, shes a cat with infinite lives, that got to ride off on a white horse while everything living thing around her burned. Wut?

    Cersei doesnt get a deserving death? Huh?

    Man that episode was bad

    Hashtag NOT MY VARYS - He would never be that direct, hamfisted and obvious
    First that stupify Little Finger and now Varys

    The Dragon defeated the ships and castle with relative ease
    was this the BIG BATTLE they were talking about . . .cause this whole episode was crap

    Ouch. Too soon, man.

    @justtxyank why do you predict Arya would kill Jon, am I missing something?

    Feel like she threatened him about not forgetting he’s family. They tend to pay that stuff off.

    And the writers have stressed how bittersweet the ending is.

    I found this episode well done. It felt more like GRRM than D&D. There are plenty of things to nitpick, but this episode didnt feel cheap with a last second daggar drop from Arya or some boring monologue. I think the previous episodes and seasons did a very poor job (attributed to Emilia Clarke being a shitty Danaerys) of forshadowing Danaerys mad queen rage. If the last 10 or so episodes were done better, this would have been one of the best episodes ever.

    they don't understand the characters they rely too much on shock factor. Danaerys is fine burning kings landing but she is not ok with sacrificing hundreds of thousands of people

    The ringing of the bells confirms to Dany of Tyrion's treachery. That's why she flipped her lid.

    Drogon/Dany are on the attack instead of being ambushed, element of surprise is on her side. Uses the sky/sun to her advantage, attacking on the side instead of head on.

    Varys was dead with or without Tyrion selling him out, the unsullied were spying on him.

    I didn't mind Arya's plot armor, the show put way too much emphasis on her just go out in a whimper.

    I honestly have no connection to any character anymore. I couldnt care less who takes the throne or dies at this point. Im watching the last episode only cause Ive invested 8 ****ing years to this show.

    I think they knew where they wanted to go and they've just done a crappy and rushed job of getting there.

    Jon and Dany are in love: Well, that seemed rushed.
    Battle of Winterfell just kind of ends quickly. Well, that seemed rushed.
    Jamie finally gets with Brienne only to immediately decide to leave for Cersei again: Well, that seemed rushed.
    Dany goes crazy and turns into a Mad Queen: Well, that seemed rushed.
    Varys, after years of supporting Dany all of a sudden turns on her for Jon: Well, that seemed rushed.

    Euron’s character is the most confusing f’ing one ever.

    I was rooting for him to win it all. Lol.

    Probably best episode of the year... but that’s not saying much.

    So many characters making choices and emotions that are so out of character for them. Secretive controlled Varys coming right out and saying that to Jon. Jon being a-ok with burning Varys to death. Daenerys never seeming quite this mad before. Cersei being weak af at the end. Davos being basically useless. Tyrion being more useless than useless. Jaimie’s storyline overall now really being pretty useless. The dragon being invisible and super strong all of a sudden. Euron basically being like **** it. Let’s die today. Jaimie getting stabbed in each side but being ok still.

    But at least it was good action and in the daytime lol.

    Yes. This
