The Unsullied bit makes me refuse to believe this because holy poo poo if it's true EVERY SINGLE MEDIA OUTLET IN THE WORLD IS GOING TO SCREAM "RACISM." And they are going to be fully justified in doing so.

This is 'destroy the loving franchise' level stuff. This is 'we're done and we hate this poo poo so have fun cleaning up this mess' level bad. This is the death of Game of Thrones as a franchise. This ends the career of the showrunners.

This would be funnier than the Poop Ending.

If thats true, the articles crying misogyny and racism will definitely be accurate though. Having the Dothraki rape white girls while having a perceived feminist pop culture icon become a genocidal lunatic (THE MAD QUEEN memes oh god) in one episode? Yeah, definitely having some extra edibles on Sunday just in case.

I don't know if it goes that far, but it definitely cuts off the possibility of anyone coming after them to try and salvage anything.

Everything else sounds feasible. I don't know why bells would make Dany go crazy, I imagine it has to be something else related to her history with King's Landing and/or the Red Keep.

God, the thinkpieces are going to be unbearable. I could barely stand reading about how "killing Misandei reinforced the disposability of POC/ended the only Black love story in GoT/etc" this past week.

Pretty sure this compiled set of leaks on freefolk is more likely.

quote:

Dany's army will capture Jaime. Dany has Vary's executed and Dany assaults Kings landing in a one sided fight. Tyrion ask her to show mercy, Dany refuses. (likely when Tyrion tries to resign as Hand) Tyrion frees Jaime and try to get Cersei out of the city. Drogon burns Kings landing and Euron's fleet (Cleganebowl, they both die.) Jaime fights Euron and kills him but is mortally wounded in exchange. Jame makes it to Cersei and they die together.

Dany starts executing everyone in Kings landing (Tyrion and Jon are upset) Dany has Tyrion arrested for freeing his brother. (his trial is supposed to have neither Dany or Jon present) Tyrion tries to convince Jon to turn on Dany. His family will never be safe because it threatens Dany's legitimacy. Jon tries to talk to Dany but she ignores him thinking she is justified.

Tyrion and Sansa begin to scheme against Dany and to turn Jon against her. Sansa will betray Tyrion at the end despite promising to rule together. (maybe at his upcoming trial) In the end Jon is somehow forced, or decides, to kill Dany. Jon's outcome is uncertain after: new Nights Watch/Exile or dies. Kit apparently shot two different endings for the show.

Tyrion's trial in the dragonpit is a major scene and has no Jon, Dany, or dragons. Sir Davos is present not wearing the Hand of the King pin along with all 3 stark children. Samwell Tarly, Brienne, Robyn Aryn, Grey Worm, an unknown man wearing golden clothes (likely Dornish), and another unidentified man (n older short bearded one dressed in green) will be there as well. Bran will flash back to season 1 where Tyrion Lannister told Catelyn Stark, "I never bet against my family". Tyrion is filled with anger and resentment against them because he saved them against Stannis and they still turned on him. Thinks people of King's Landing deserved it. He saved them and were ungrateful (trial of Joffrey's murder) Will fall to his knees in the middle of the speech dragged down by the weight of his actions. His death was filmed in studio so not sure how he dies.

Think about it - they're literally going to have a foreign army of brown nomadic dudes rape white girls in an exotic looking city in Trump's America. This loving franchise as a whole will definitely die if this is true.

Hello!
These seem a little out there, even for how the show has gone. I'm not saying they definitely couldn't happen, I'm just saying don't count your eggs before they hatch into terrible racist chickens.

The GC turns on Cersei.

Scorpions can't fire up. Dany probably figures "oh if I just divebomb them from a high altitude they wont see me coming or be able to react".

Drogon easily winning and beating Euron and KL’e defenses is going to be painted as a “because Dany doesn’t care about keeping innocents alive” and not “lets use our dragons smartly and attack from above / our of LOS from the ballista” and it’s going to rule.

The unsullied going on a rampage and the Dothraki going on a rape fest is..... actually what I was expecting for a long time. Her using the Dothraki army with no clear expectation of how she meant to reward them in any way that would satisfy their culture has been a question the show has not really addressed. To reach KL and let them loose basically prove Cersei’s fear mongering 100% right which is an amazing direction to take the show.

The show is literally ending with “Cersei was right”.

They're using the Unsullied as an extension of Grey Worm I guess. But you've told us too many times that they're the most perfectly disciplined soldiers that have ever existed.

This would make a bit more sense had their freedom and Grey Worm’s leadership had been expanded or developed in any way. Daenerys freed them, they chose to keep fighting for her (to free others) but they never showed them gain any independence or free will and were portrayed as drones until I guess this upcoming episode.
