Quite liked Davos correcting Jon Snow regarding his line "10,000 men, less?"

"Fewer....."

Little snippet that Davos learnt off Stannis a few seasons back.

Might've been from episode 3 rather than the latest one but pretty cool whenever it was.

Wow!

Dragons are a pretty big weapon!!

Really enjoyed that.


What was the chaos being a ladder dialogue with Bran and LF? I guess that refers to something he said to someone he thought wouldn't be heard?


private convo little finger and varys season 1, little finger spoke of chaos being a ladder and now brann speaks his own words back to him

Really let LF know that he's in the shit for all his past scheming.

His face when he saw Arya kicking ass was brilliant, he knows that he's basically f**ked now that the pack has reformed.

Tyrion said during the episode they still had enough ships to get the Dothraki to the mainland.  The location of Dragonstone in relation to Kings landing and where the Lannister army was on the way back could reasonably be travelled in a few hours at the pace the Dothraki ride at.

Great episode, maybe my favourite from the show.  I think they leaked it on purpose just because it was such a good ep.  Think 0% chance Jaime is dead, the cliffhanger will be more a question of will Jaime and Bronn escape back to Kings Landing or will they be captured and taken prisoner by Dany

Read of a great previous series reference yesterday:

Sansa on the balcony towards the end of season 6 saying "no-one can protect me"

On to season 7 and she's on the same balcony with Littlefinger watching Arya (aka no-one) kicking Breanne's ass.

Too clever.

Gut reaction immediately after watching episode 5 is that it was a better episode than last week.  What it lacked in epic battle scenes was compensated by storyline development, as it pretty much revealed where all the major characters are heading next, with a few twists and turns along the way.  Melisandre is probably the only 'whereabouts unknown' remaining.

The Jaime 'mystery' (albeit no-one seemed to expect him to be dead) was killed for me by the opening credits, with the appearance of Walder-Landau's name in its usual prominent place, albeit more suspension of disbelief was required for where he resurfaced.

What followed was a fantastic series of scenes, with some fascinating reveals along the way.  Littlefinger finally got some meaningful scenes, and showed he's back to his usual self, presumably scheming to set Arya against Sansa with a fake scroll.  The final sequences brought together a great little posse of characters who immediately head out on what appears to be Operation Certain Death, so we can expect to lose some of them along the way.  Beric, Jorah and Gendry seem the most likely candidates to me, although I'm hoping that Gendry gets to reunite with Arya, so hopefully not (and please not Davos!)

Very surprised that Sam didn't pick up on the relevance of Gilly's reading (the mention of Rhaegar surely would have registered with him).  Rhaegar's marriage annulment and (presumed) subsequent marriage to Lyanna legitimises Jon's birth, so creates more complexities with regard to the Iron Throne, although common sense seems to be kicking in all around in the short term with regard to the threat from the Night King.

It feels like there were plenty of 'that will be relevant later' moments tonight.  The 'knife to the heart' chat feels likely to cause distrust between Jon and Dany, as an example.

I'm sure I've missed plenty, which will become clearer on another watch and as the internet starts to do its job.  Need to see the freeze frame on the scroll that Arya read with Sansa's name on too, but I'm sure it's not the one that Littlefinger received.

Apparently the scroll from Sansa is the one from Series One, asking Robb to bend the knee to save Ned (written under duress).

Really liked the way Jaime spoke about the dragons and more importantly the Dothraki. "We were just sport"....

Drogon giving a little growl seemed a decent way of encouraging a bended knee and the Tarly toast but was a nice way to get the remaining few.

Thought it was a good episode setting up a great episode 6 battle with the walkers. Expect to see the seven brave idiots get completely fucked next episode until Dany swoops in with all three dragons to save the day with one of them ending up dead.

Drogon's reaction to Jon was brilliant, clearly recognised him as family.

Just watched it again and realised that Davos isn't part of the raiding party, which hopefully is good for his life expectancy.

I think the dragons will sense Jons in danger and go get him like they did with Dany. I don't think Dany will necessarily be there.
