Here's what's really super frustrating to me about this episode… This one of the "longer episodes" that was supposed to take some of the sting away from the shortened season; instead it's the one where the shortened season is showing the most! It's becoming a very tall order for this series to close out without…

I think, you couldn't have nailed it any more precisely. It smacks of knowing where they want the story to go, not giving a ginger minge how they get there

What the F*CK is going on with this Winterfell storyline??? Remember when everyone was appalled at the Stannis-burning-Shireen for its character assassination? That was adorable.

Walking's good, fighting's better, fucking's best!!!

What will we do now, when need a tinfoil hat theory about the endgame of the show, now that the dangling Gendry Rowboat thread had been woven back in???
*Trolls wailing in the streets*

Gilly is a perfectly poetic person to discover R+L=J

Maybe, "I thought your arms'd be bigger"
- Gendry crushes 2 skulls with his warhammer-
"My arms are plenty strong." *wink*

As if there was literally anything else he could have said…

6+ seasons of Arya learning to be smarter… And she's getting outfoxed by mf Littlefinger… Boooo

I thought you might still be rowing!!!

Siton Manaba, Lickupon Manaba, Ridon Manaba, Slobbon Manaba, Bobbon Manaba …

Plus, she planted the seed with her suspicion. ("…Our enemies? You mean your family" etc)

That shot was glorious! Gliding over water, along the treeline… Magnificent!!

BTW, freezeframed it, definitely Bronn who tackled Jaime off the horse at the end

Sansa's earlier comment to Jon about learning a great deal from Cersei got me thinking. I've long been conscious of the theme in Arya's arc about cycling through not only aliases but also survivalists/killers of many types that she's been able learn from. But thhlat comment from Sansa made me realize that she has…

One of his most epic speeches! He was rubbing in to Varys that he'd sniffed out Ros, Varys' informant within his brothel, intimating that he gave her to Joffrey for crossbow practice, with intercuts to fill in the blanks of suggestion, then transitioning to Jon and the wildling raiding party climbing the Wall.

"saved? Jaime?" perfect punctuation

"Chaos is a ladder."
Drogon: "What if I BURN the ladder!!!!

How about, "remember when all the Lannister pricks married you off to 'the Imp' and were browbeating him to rape you on the spot in front of everybody, but he threatened to cut off Joffrry's dick and then promised not to touch you unless you wanted him to? Funny story, he didn't actually poison the little shit, but he…

LOVED the callbacks in the greeting between Jon Snow and Tyrion, to the Tyrion/Varys moniker exchange in Pentos
