A Game of Thrones **BOOKS OFF LIMITS** v2

[Nyah]

So....does Euron now knows that Cersei isn't pregnant with his baby thanks to Tyrion's speech to her? Do you think Tyrion accidentally screwed up her alliance with Euron and his fleet? He's got to know she's playing him now.

Oh gods,

This is not going to end well.

Spoiler!

RIP Missandei, Rhaegal.

I don't remember his speech mentioning who the father was.
That would be a great twist though.

Had it been season one, Tryion would have gotten perforated.

Her and Jaime are the wildcard in all of this.

And I suppose Varys with his network. He's extremely dangerous. Does Tyrion rat him out before he can do something "for the realm"?

Maggies (?) prophecy from waaaay back says no. She will be queen for a time, but she will fall.

So is Jon the one that is "younger and more beautiful" in the prophecy?

Doesn’t it also have to do with the timing? She didn’t sleep with Euron until after Jaime left. It’s impossible that Tyrion knows unless she was pregnant before Jaime left.

No, but he's under the impression that she just found out...and they had sex not too long ago. This is the first conversation her & Tyrion have had in what...a month? Doesn't a genius to figure it out.

Dany could take the throne for day I suppose. Then those who want Jon on the throne do their thing.

[djsFlames]

We saw ugly/grey shades of pretty much every character in that episode (except sweet Brienne). And foreshadowing of looming betrayal and tragedy left and right.

Probably the most early-era GOT episode in over a season.

[sureLoss]

There is a very real possibility Cersei isn't pregnant at all.

Remember that she refused to drink wine with Tyrion when he was trying to convince her to fight the Night King. He deduced that she was pregnant with Jamie's child.

However, after sleeping the Euron for the first time she was back to drinking wine again.

She was:
a) deceiving her brothers that she was pregnant with Jamie's child
b) has now stopped caring about the baby or has lost the child

I think we are seeing Cersei using a pregnancy as a manipulation tool. Appealing to her to save her non-existent child might have been a huge misplay on Tyrion's part.

Not even going to bother spoiler tagging things anymore. Dany is a ####ing idiot she just had to showboat AGAIN with her dragons and another one gets harpooned. Did she learn nothing? Nope, had to do a fly by pleased as punch look how amazing I am. Such a great episode stained with utter stupidity by Dany.

[burn_this_city]

I don’t understand why they went to Dragonstone at all. Why split your forces?

[DownInFlames]

I was hoping Missandei was going to turn out to be Arya in disguise and she’d kill Cercei when asked for her last words.

The next episode should be another bloodbath.

Agreed. Really unfortunate. Losing people has brought her to that slippery slope into "mad queen" territory, and she was baited way too easily. We're past the point of no return now. Her lust for the throne is going to get the better of her.

Varys is right. And Tyrion is too level headed to follow her down this path much longer. She's going to find herself pretty alone soon all cause she couldn't keep her cool, listen to her advisors and bide her time.

I think Jorah was the only one that could convince her to cool her impulses. Now that he's gone, they're screwed.

Yup, she was VERY fortunate to get out of the BoW with both dragons. She knew they had weapons to counter them, but had to parade them in plain daylight. Just terrible decision after terrible decision.

Dare I say I think Rhaegal going down was even more sad than Missandei. Ugh.

Including Tyrion getting knocked out at the start of a battle and cutting immediately to him regaining consciousness after it's all over.

[Strange Brew]

Really good job of showing Dany out of her element. This is not the world she is comfortable in and it is allowing her impulsiveness to emerge.

She was doing a lot better on the other side of the water so maybe she heads back when this is done.

The moment at the end with Brienne and Jamie was television gold, heartbreaking and suspense building. I just loved it and now more interested in how his arc plays out than almost anyone's.

Euron has just found out and is under the impression he’s recently impregnated her. Tyrion knowing already although having been gone for months would be extremely suspicious to him if he put it together.

[djsFlames]

See, isn't this more interesting than 'World War Z: Westeros'?

But who cares to see Cersei beheaded when you can fight an ice zombie that never speaks for three more episodes. Cersei doesn't make my blood boil at all...

I will say I loved the battle with death, but THIS is Thrones!

[Jbo]

In all fairness, she was ambushed, not really showboating
