Wow, the last part of that episode was really something else. I haven't been that on the edge of my seat watching a show in I can't even remember how long.

And Arya competency porn, what more could one ask for.

Good reunions, dumb writing in them but they were still emotional so it's fine. Jon and Theon reunion, also well done.

I can see what they're trying to do with Bran, but it feels clumsy and poorly done. Meera Reed deserves better, hopefully she gets a better part later on, it'd suck if that was her last bit.

So...

Dany believes in the Night King and will help fight.

Cersei gets her gold, but loses Jamie. Assuming he doesn't drown (which he won't why would they save him from fire to have him drown) he's now prisoner of Dany.

Which means a brotherly reunion next episode!

Littlefinger feeling a bit outmatched, Sansa not taking his crap, Bran showing he's transcended Littlefinger's puny view of the world, and finally watches Arya take on Brienne and must be thinking "wtf have I got myself into, what is with these people?!" But a skittish Littlefinger is probably a dangerous Littlefinger.

Jon's speech to Dany seems to have had an effect, but then she's attacking the Lanisters on the way to King's Landing, is she going to attack it anyway? Or is she going to try and convince Cersei to step down and join in fighting the Night King (which she won't)?
