So looking forward to Sam carrying Heartsbane on his back indefinitely. (Hopefully till the end of the series). Gods I loved "he can try"! You'll find no bigger badass if someone messes with his Gilly flower.  That was such a relief, too! I was thinking to myself that leaving Gilly to work in the kitchens at her father's house was a surer way to get her harmed than leaving her at the Wall. What was the purpose of that whole encounter, as far as the show's plot goes, do you think? We'll definitely be seeing the Tarlys again. |

It had to be in that order though. We had to see how Bran and Meera survived. Benjen was only revealed to Bran and Meera in the second scene towards the end of the episode. If they had played up that scene and made it more dramatic/emotional, that could have easily been the ending of the episode. I don't know why I thought the 2 scenes were together.  |

It's funny to see how Bran went from "the most boring character ever" to absolute MVP of the Season for most Unsullied watchers.  Much like how the Night's King went from been mocked for poking babies in the face and looking like a frostbitten Darth Maul to been considered the shows most badass and terrifying villain. |

Yeah I think we'll definitely see the Tarlys again, at least Randyll, since Sam took Heartsbane with him. |

His Father will definitely be after him for that but he's a lot less of a threat than White Walkers, that's for sure. |

That bloody hand which was in Bran's visions was also in the trailer which we thought was Arya wiping her hand across the wall. Some of those visions are of what is to come this season. The wildfire is going to happen later on as Aerys II didn't actually burn anything down. I think that the bloody hand was Arya killing the Waif ( and possibly taking her face).
They kept the casting of Aerys under the radar.

Other than being something for Hannah Murray and John Bradley to do as main cast members this season and something that I imagine Bryan Cogman fought to have included, I guess the two main plot purposes of the sequence were to introduce Randyll and Dickon who I could see being important in s7 and getting Sam a Valyrian steel sword to study at the Citadel. Jon told him that Longclaw killed a WW so now Sam can look into why exactly that might be. |

So glad Gilly mentioned Sam the Slayer!
Ofc all Randyll takes from it was where Sam met Gilly.

So, some of the shots from Bran's vision were of Hardhome, or so it looked like. But new shots from what we saw, as though from the perspective of the Night King. So perhaps the Night King marked him and the connection between the two works both ways? Connecting the dots, I really think that Mad King knew or saw some vision of the Night's King with his Targ blood. He became obsessed and paranoid because he understood so little about it and started burning People because he didn't understand about Wights. So when he screamed burn them all, it was a wierd Defense mechanism. He became afraid of people being around him, which is noted in the lore, and he only trusted his KG, even more than his son. Not to mention Rhaegar's wierd fixation with Stannis Jon Azor Ahai. Where did that one come from? He saw something, the Targaryens are notorious for visions and prophetic dreams. White Walkers are pretty important to miss in the scope of time and space and whatnot. Someone guessed elsewhere that the Mad King might have gone mad because he heard Bran. It occurs to me that a more likely scenario is that he heard Bloodraven. Maybe Bloodraven tried to warn him about things in visions. He could have accidentally screwed up Aerys the way Bran screwed up Hodor (but less severely, because of the warging.) Maybe Bloodraven saw a vision about the White Walkers coming and tried to warn Aerys about the need to prepare for them, and burn them, and those warnings drove him nuts and made him paranoid and obsessed with fire. |

I just wanna say I really enjoy the glimpses into the past Bran has been giving us. It's really something to me to be able to see things from thousands of years ago, even just 20 years ago.

I'm sorry, but I hated the KL story. I like Margaery manipulating people because she's good at it. Her scene with Tommen and Mace being lead on his horse were the highlights, but I hate that Jaime is still Cersei's puppet. I hate this "our son" bullshit when in the books he barely aclnowledges himself as their father. I don't understand why they go light on Cersei, not letting her embrace the crazy then undo all of Jaime's amazing development in S3 only to revert back to being a prick in Cersei's pocket.
I hate it. It completly brought the ep down for me.

That means Randyll is going to follow Sam to Old Town by which will be invade by the Ironbron and we gonna have a Euron vs Randyll battle!  |

Tommen is truly brainwashed. Kind of infuriating to watch, but a very interesting story. Margaery has really done it this time. I imagine Cersei is out for blood.

Honestly at this point I can't wait for Tommen to die. At least he's pudgy and adorable in the books.
Thank the gods they landed such a great actor for the HS, because I could have easily been sick to death of that storyline at this point otherwise.

I think things might heat up next week after the Cersei/Olenna confrontation. |
