I've been mostly positive towards the show (Dorne never happened) but those leaks are looking really loving weird. What's the point of Jaime's redemption arc if he just goes and does that?

Jaime literally can't betray the North because he pledged loyal to the living iirc, not the North and not to Dany. He also said he would do everything all over again to protect his family which I guess is D&D's version of foreshadowing.

The two guys talking about themes not mattering are working on an alternate history where the US Confederacy won the Civil War.

No themes in that I guess, I guess they just want the spectacle of slavery on screen

Didn't that show get canceled? If not I hope it's good. There's a lot of interesting things they can do with that premise, but I doubt it will be anymore than a "rebels inside the confederacy are fighting against slavery" type of story.

There's a big difference between 'Jaime betrays Dany to keep Cersei in power' and 'Jaime betrays Dany to smuggle Cersei out of a burning city'. So long as they make it clear he's only willing to do the latter I'd say the character has definitely progressed.

Agreed. I won't mind any of the leaks as long as there's a decent storyline behind them. Also I thought all of this was supposed to be ep 4 leaks but I've been made aware it's for the entire rest of the season so that leaves a lot more room to actually explain poo poo.

Here's a leak list that makes more sense and sounds more satisfying https://www.reddit.com/r/freefolk/comments/bk8e4e/episode_4_predictionsspoilersrelevant_links/emjwgn1/

Hoping since these claim to be firsthand and the others claim to be secondhand that they'll end up being closer

I always assumed Dany would go mad and Jon would kill her so I'm happy they're doing that instead of giving her a disney-princess ending like a lot of people feared.

This interview D&D gave during season 5 is all you have to know about the philosophy of working on this show behind the scenes:

"The story lines move forward and dig deeper as the episodes progress but rarely circle back and almost never pause for reflection. When I asked Benioff and Weiss if it was possible to infer any overall intentionality to the upcoming 10 episodes, they sneered. “Themes are for eighth-grade book reports,” Benioff told me."

Do we know for sure those clips are ep4 then? Because the Missandei clip seems to have Grey Worm standing in downtown King's Landing which feels really early to be in ep4.

How does that figure into raping his twin sister on top of their firstborn's corpse?

Book Jaime is already further along down this redemption path than endgame show Jaime.

Basically everybody is a cartoon at this point. What a dumb show.

Mad Queen Dany is a brilliant ending, because gently caress themes! I wonder if the King Bran part also comes true in that scenario.

However, how exactly does Dany do this? I mean she obviously loses another dragon, Cersei learned that having multiple ballista or at least shooting a lot with them is a good idea and Dany's army shouldn't be that huge anymore, while king's landing still isn't that easy to capture, right?
Or was last episode just a lie, and her army is still doing fine?

Missandei is beheaded by the Mountain, Rhaegal gets killed by Euron. Jon is not really into fighting down south at all.

Dany going off the rails has at least been vaguely hinted at and she's always shown she's not an amazing ruler.

It's better than her remaining her getting just everything she wants.

I was thinking the best course of action is to do a Clue style final episode where there are 3 endings and the viewer can decide what they like best.

Do one where Jon takes the throne.


Do one where cercie keeps the throne.

And do the fan favorite wild card ending:

Tormund takes the throne and forces everyone in Kings landing to drink giants milk in preparation for the next invasion of the night king.

He also marries Brianne and fucks a dragon.

I don’t understand how surprise attacks are still a thing when the three eyed raven exists. Also, shouldn’t there at least be one or two civilians that could warn Winterfell if they see a massive army marching through the north?

So it looks like Mad Dany killed by Jon may be true and I'm ready and excited for the mess that the rest of this season will be 😂

I know Jon has plot armor and has to live to the end no matter what but c'mon man.

Also that Missandei clip.... wow. People are going to be pissed. Grey Worm really sells the grief there tho and Dany is going full crazy Targ eyes, they're definitely going to try and sell the mad queen heel turn.

Full episode details:

- Opens with a mass cremation after the Battle of Winterfell. Characters mourn the deaths of their friends.
- Cut to the victory celebration. Tormund praises Jon and Arya for winning the battle. Dany looks on with envy. Gendry can't find Arya at the party and goes out to search for her, but Dany meets with him and makes him Lord of Storm's End.
- Jaime praises Brienne and while playing a game... <something I don't understand> they make out and end up having sex.
- Gendry finds Arya and they kiss. Gendry wants to be with Arya, but she tells him she does not want to be with him.
- Dany and Jon talk about his true identity. Dany does not want anyone else to know about it as she will lose her claim to the Iron Throne.
- Tyrion and Jaime meet with Bronn, who has come to assassinate them on Qyburn's orders. Tyrion tells Bronn he will pay double of whoever sent him to not kill anyone. Bronn heads back to King's Landing (?)
- Jon, Arya, Sansa, and Bran talk about Jon's true identity.
- Everyone is separated from Tormund. <something I don't understand> Jon gives him Ghost.
- <something I don't understand about not hurrying to King's landing but going anyway>
- Arya leaves Winterfell <something about The Hound following her?>
- Tyrion talks to Varys about distrust and betrayal (?).
- Dany's army marches on Dragonstone, Missandei and Grey Worm travel by ship. Dany rides her dragon, while Jon is on land.
- On the way Rhaegal is shot with arrows in the chest and neck and falls into the sea. Missandei is captured and taken to King's Landing (?)
- Cersei crams innocent citizens inside the Red Keep to prevent Dany's army from entering. Her reasoning being that Dany would have to kill citizens in order to let her army through, and thus she would never be accepted as a queen by the people of the Seven Kingdoms for committing such an atrocity <according to a leak a crush occurs during this scene and Arya and The Hound are present>.
- Dany leads the army to King's Landing to allow Tyrion to negotiate with Cersei. Cersei orders The Mountain to cut off Missandei's head. Greyworm looks away and Dany's blood runs cold as she watches.
End

I think this is legit. The two vids match, and I've seen a pic (too lazy to rehost) confirming the Jaime thing. Anyway, here you go.
