I'm hoping we get something cool out of the march of the Unsullied, something like maybe "The March of the Ten Thousand" of Xenophon, but probably there isn't much time with so few episodes left. This reminds me a lot of the very rushed final season of Boardwalk Empire.

Littlefinger needs to die, he's useless as a character now.

Never heard of it. Probably some new SJW word.

I don't know if they said so on the show, but in the books the Unsullied have the penis removed as well.

In the books I think they said that the Unsullied had the dick removed as well.

She's clearly still not very good at the job. We're starting to see that she will probably be a bad queen if she wins - all this talk of people bending the knee, what happened to Tyrion's idea of replacing the monarchy? She seems to have completely forgotten that idea. Instead of asking Jon Snow to team up, she

What, really?

She realized with him that sometimes it's more complicated. Cersei and the rest are more cartoon villains.

Both those guys had regents - Edward until 16, Louis until 13 (which still seems too young, but not as bad as 10). Lyanna might have one were they not in the middle of a war. As a pretty minor house it might be less crucial.

Hm, no. Male or female, someone that young would always have a regent. Also, becoming fully adult in medieval societies, or in the Classical world, did not happen that early - just like marriages in those times happened much later than people think. As for female rulers, they were allowed in the Middle Ages only

Why are there chains on the bookshelves in the Citadel?

How is anything The Facelss Men do possible? Magic. Seriously: actual
magic. Magic doesn’t have to follow the laws of physics. It doesn’t have
to make sense.

Bronn deserves to tap that tease.

V.P. of Titays.

How much water do those big ships draw? I wonder if they could sail in there without getting stuck.

Agreed.

Greek ships were designed for ramming, but they were fairly small and light compared to what the Ironborn are using here which resemble the kind of ships Nelson had. It would have made more sense for them to use Viking longboats, but oh well.

When Euron appeared before Cersei, he looked like he'd just roared in on his motorbike.

It's strange how ship travel works in Westeros, anyway - you'd almost think tides and wind don't matter at all. Once Euron had rammed that ship, what was he going to do then? Get the sweeps out and try to back his multi-ton ship off the other one that's on fire?

It did exist for her class, and it's unlikely a ten-year-old would be making important decisions like she is, without a regent - but she doesn't appear to have one, and although she listens to her maester she's the one making the tough calls.
