That was a pretty bad episode.

Were it not for the boarding of the recently finished S.S Brienne + Tormund ship, this episode totally blew.

Ramsay doing more Ramsay stuff

Everyone in the room previously knowing Cersei is an idiot suddenly get hit by the Idiot Ball themselves and decide her plan is ok and can't even see through her blatant "do you want your son back" manipulation. Tommen commiting suicide is now completely possible, I would kill myself too if I was tasked with holding a whole continent together and all the people who are supposed to be helping me make things worse

Daenerys...really??? Even the leader of the Dosh Kaleen kneeled? Is it like a rule that if you display immunity to fire you should be immediately promoted to an authority figure?

Tyrion's scene. GOD DAMMIT TYRION'S SCENE. I was watching the episode with a friend and we started laughing our asses off at how completely aimless this segment was.

This show is really becoming The Walking Dead with the reuse of the same interiors over and over again (Mereen's Throne Room, the High Sparrow's altar, Mereen's chatting room), characters being pissed at each other and sulking yet acting completely the opposite way the next scene, cheap shock points farming.

Seriously as many have stated, the North is the only interesting part of the show, as in everything North of The Gift.

-Sansa met with Jon, urged him to take back their home. Ramsay sent a letter saying im gonna gently caress all your wildlings to death (and also that they have rickon in the dungeon) so they have a concrete reason to fight.
-Littlefinger showed up while big fat whats-his-name dude was training Robin Arryn. He implied that he had sold littlefinger out and betrayed his position to the boltons. Littlefinger was like 'well what do we do now HMMMM' and of course Robin was like 'well gently caress throw him through the moon door, whatever' and then littlefinger was all smarmy and like 'let's give him a chance' and then he said well what do we do about Ramsay making Sansa unsafe?? Let's rally the lords of the vale and get into the fight!!!!
-The faith had Marg and her bro in a dungeon. He talks to her about faith stuff and lets her see him. She's like stay strong bro, and he's like, I'm loving broken, just make it end.
-Tyrion meets with the slavers and diplomatically negotiates a slow-burn turn from slavery in which the masters will be paid off and they can go to a great capitalist society.
-Cercie and Jaime go to Kavan and the thorn lady and stop them from leaving the room by telling them inside info from Tommen. They say that the faith is going to make Marg walk, and queen of thorns is like gently caress that. Kavan said that tommen ordered him to not escalate things, so Jaime takes over in Tywin fashion and lays it out: The Tyrell army will come in and gently caress the faith up before Marge is due to walk. Kavan will have everyone under his control stand down, which is in-line with Tommen's orders. If everything goes as planned Marge will be back by Tommen's side and he won't complain. Kavan mentions if poo poo goes bad it will be a slaughter, and queen of thorns says w/e, people gonna die either way, at least it won't be our people
-Jorah and gently caress boy invade the khal hoop de doop and sneak around and find Dany. They're like let's go!! And she's like na...I got a better plan. Then when all the Khals are together in a hut deciding what to do with her she's like "I have a plan..how about I take over" and they are like "lol ok or we can rape you" and then she's like "or I can do THIS!!" and knocks over some fires and burns it all to the ground!!!! She walks from the ashes and everyone bows to her and now she controls all the dothraki.

The resolution is what pissed me off

"You broke our rules by bringing weapons into our city and spilling blood, and destroyed one of our sacred places by doing something any other person could have done. But you didn't burn in the process, so the rules say we must not obey your every command"

It was a reenactment of the first season, only in that season the reason why the people decided to follow her was not because she happened to be fireproof, but because she revived DRAGONS.

I think what we're going to be seeing is a very different Dany ruling the Dothraki. I have a feeling the Dothraki are going to turn into a matriarchal society literally overnight.:getin:

Rewatching the episode right now. I completely forgot about Littlefinger's scene.

I think they should really not attempt to explain Littlefinger's behaviour and actions on the previous season because there is no satisfactory explanation to doing dumb out of character poo poo.

Fat guy (Royce?): "You said you were taking Sansa to the Fingers"

Littlefinger: "I...uuuh...got attacked by the Boltons on my way home. I decided not to rally the bannermen until after the wedding's consumation because that would have been just rude and we are not Freys".

Fat Guy: "He is not to be trusted my Lord"

Robin: "Good point, but he did gift me this sweet rear end eagle. We should trust him"

Fat Guy: "Ok, I trust you. We are back to the good terms we left our relationship in at the beginning of season 5"

Oh Yeah, that's a good point. I assume the rumors of a shadow killing renly are prevalent enough that Brienne gets the benefit of the doubt.

Also she's Brienne, not super famous jaime lannister so people probably don't care enough to give her that nickname

You missed the part where it became clear that Robin was completely in Littlefinger's pocket and they might just have Royce killed right then and there.

Not that Littlefinger's plot makes much sense still. I guess he left Winterfell, found out offscreen that Ramsey was a fucker, but also that Sansa had escaped so she could be helped, and then rode for the Vale to collect an army.

The dothraki can gain position by defeating another khal in combat so maybe it's just that she single handedly defeated all the scrub Khals at once. You could also imagine everyone has heard of her powers, dragons etc. but never seen them. They know she's SUPPOSED to be fireproof but magic doesn't really exist on Essos for most of the time in the story. Once they actually see that Danny is magic in this one way, they realize all the other far out BS might be true and respect her power for what it seems to be.

I felt awful for Royce. Utterly loyal, knows Littlefinger was involved in Sansa's marriage... and now must absolutely keep his mouth shut and bide his time.
Really praying that Royce gets one in before dying, though.

Sophie Turner is a terrible actress. Emilia Clarke too. I'm actually honestly goon-rage angry that they even are famous because of how bad they are.

Why is Misandei even involved in anything at all. She was the Unsullied masters secretary, and now she just kind of hangs around important people.

RIP Natalia Tena

It's also really dumb that Dothraki have a city at all. Their whole schtick is they are nomadic barbarians. Except I guess they have a complex legal system and culture uniting the 10 different hordes of nomadic barbarians because??
