bloody fantastic, Thrones at it's best. I have zero problems. The dialogue, character interactions, meetings, reunions, cinematography were all spot on! Tyrion/Jon, Jon/Dany, and Jaime/Olena scenes were so great. The voice over from Tyrion during the siege was awesome (Casterly Rock looks great) and his line "give me ten good men and I'll impregnate the bitch" was my favorite from this episode (Bronn's line from S1 has been one of my favorites in the show). Any wrong D&D have done, they are forgiven for. This had everything that I love about Thrones and I couldn't be happier with it. Probably my top 5 episodes from the entire series. 10/10

Can't give it a 10...there's much that I don't feel is right at this time.
1. Bran and his weird attitude now. Yeah I get it he's changed....but I didn't feel he had changed so much that he would be acting cold and flat like that.
2. Jaime is still being stupid as hell and doing whatever the hell that bitch sister is telling him to do. I can't stand that about him.
It was good...but just not perfect for me.

Eh, i didnt vote.
Euron is funny!
I liked the "Siege of The Rock" narration.
Jorah had better play a decisive factor in the war for all the screentime that hes getting. Dany and Jon will probably make love soon. Why being Jorah back to watch that shyte? Lol
Baelish gave Sansa solid advice. For once.
When Cersei learns that it was Olenna and not Sansa who killed Joff, will she attempt to woo Sansa and the North to her side?
How is rank observed in Westeros? Did Olenna discuss the matter with Tarly or did she just brief him on the next steps to be taken? See, I assumed talks between Dany and the West would include the major lords of Westeros, lord AND vassal heads. Even if it didnt, it was sloppy on Olennas part to not bring Tarly into the loop. He was her muscle. House Tyrell shouldve checked their growth a long time ago. Mostly bad things happen when a vassal is (militarily) stronger than its liege.
Tarly was right to turn on Olenna. Considering what he knew, Danaerys is a major threat and his griefstricken liege was leading them all to ruin. It is Olennas fault for allowing him to be so influenced.
The viking assembled ships quickly so Im not surprised by Eurons numbers. I understand why his fleet is seemingly everywhere at once. Just dont understand why no one's doing a thing about it.
Cerseis devious but she has never been a strong critical thinker. Shes a good villain this season but this wont end well. She rapes The Reach of its riches, then what? Cant think Tarly will sit about and take it once he discovers the truth.
Bran informs all that LF killed Ned or whatever. Then, arya kills him because shes "no one". Sound about right?
Dany was right: Air Power. It's not like Eurons outfitted every galley with a dragon harpoon BUT she should be prepared for such a tactic and dragon killing projectiles all the same. That said, she doesnt have a plan and shouldnt bring her dragons into battle without knowing how to use them. As it stands, the two dragons follow the lead of Drogon who follows her. If all three huddle suspended in tight formation as they did at Mereen, theyre too easy to pick off. She wont be as successful with them unless they can operate independently-unless she can direct them. In my opinion.
Dany is a fool to think her dragons invulnerable. Many battles have been lost by those with superior numbers and advanced tech. A dragon can be killed if grounded. The Unsullied were used properly at Casterly Rock. Danys silly arse wouldve had them throwing themselves against the wall. But they actually dont have the right weaponry or training for close quarter fighting. The dothraki weapon is no match for armor. The dothraki themselves are no match for a disciplined, experienced and battlehardened army.

Bran is probably so cold bc he knows what the future holds.

Amazing! One of the best episodes ever.. I was losing faith in this show to be honest. The past few seasons have been kinda on the decline..but this has been a very solid season so far. I'm glad they got their shit together.

Agree about Bran. I don't like the cold hard personality. Emotionless with his sister, bringing up one of the worst moments of her life Willy nilly...no tact and bad form.

We haven't seen him really since he latched onto the tree and so there's no telling what he's seen.
Plus apparently the future is not etched so that's got to be stressing him out a bit.
I wish Sansa had stayed but I get why it would be traumatic to discuss the details with her brother who apparently knows the details.
I can't remember if he can only see things around the tree.

I don't think he needs the tree to see things. Wasn't he in a trance when they got to Castle Black? That's a good question.

So he can see prophecy but not understand it and also see whatever the weirwood trees see across any time.
However, it seemed that the 3 eyed raven could see anywhere since there wasn't a tree at Tower of Joy or in the Hodor scenes, so it's all pretty confusing right now in relation to the books.

Euron's fleet with cloaking devices and warp or jump drives is too much over the egde.
While Dany has dragons to search the seas, Euron can do as he likes, where ever he likes: at one moment he is at the narrow sea (all along around the coast lines of Dorne - undetected), than in King's Landing, and snip, at Castely Rock, all around Weteros including again the narrow sea, Dorne, Dragonstone and the entire reach including Old town and the heavy traffic from Essos - but all undetected.
But else a good episode: 7/10.

I was reading a synopsis of the show and the writer assumes that Euron's fleet is split up. Pyke is on the same side of Westoros as Casterly Rock.
That still doesn't explain how Euron is able to get back to Kings landing in time time for the parade and Yara still be freshly bloody.
I like Euron as a character since he's pretty much an intelligent hillbilly if such a thing existed, but they are ruining him by his omnipresence.
