Jon and Dany are nephew and aunt — but still incest. I don’t know what GRRM’s deal is, but part of it is modeled after history where all of the royal houses in Europe would marry each other.

OK...How is this for a desktop? The graphics on this show are incredible.

What freaked me out though was Daenerys and Jon screwing after we find out they are bro and sis. What is the deal with this show and incest? Does George RR have some kind of fetish for that?

Actually, they are aunt and nephew...but still incestuous.

If so, then Tyrion would also have a claim to the throne, but his claim would be weaker than Jon's and Dany's claims as trueborn children.

Dany is trueborn child - Jon is trueborn grandchild. Don't know about the rules of succession, just think it's an interesting perspective.

Throughout history royals are well known for having inbred babies. Since this is mostly a story about royals; maybe the author wanted to include that fact. Just guessing. Maybe the author does have a thing for one of his or her close relatives.

LF went out like a bitch, ugh, that scene was poorly conceived, DandD did wrong by that character, no way he would act so dumb.

Fun fact, some fans did the “incest math” and due to all the Targaryen inbreeding, Jon and Dany are almost as genetically similar as full siblings!

My question is now that Arya has Little Finger’s face, what will she do with it?

Nice graphic. I’m guessing the dead dragon now has anti-magic breath instead of fire or ice. The wall was built with magic so it took something with anti-magic to tear it down. Something the White Walkers could not do so Dany basically delivered and sacrificed the one thing the Night King needed to get through the wall.

At least that’s how I’m seeing it. It wouldn’t be the first time I was wrong about such things. Maybe the dead dragon now breathes super cold anti-magic which could also be used against the other two dragons since dragons are mystical beings born of magic.

I hope Dragon is making a few more dragon eggs for next story in a thousand years (Westeros years; not our years).

He was killed publicly in front of the lords of the Vale. No, too public a persona.

Ho ho! I didn’t think of that.

At this point I don’t know what use it would be to impersonate him, but that would be cool.

I think that's exactly how he would act. So full of himself and thinking he's so clever but in the end just a spineless coward who thought his slimy manipulations would be successful with Sansa. He was lulled into underestimating her because of how easy it was to get rid of her father.

Of course they’d have to keep it quiet that he was murdered. Not sure if that would work.

He may well act like a B when threatened with death, sure.

But I can’t see him acting so stupid and getting in that situation. A nigh omniscient Bran shows up? Book LF would get the hell out of dodge immediately.

And the whole fakeout setup with arresting Ayra was just patently unnecessary. In my head I heard a “waaa waaa” when she said “Do you deny the charges (turns head) Lord Baelish?”. Cheesy.

“To kill Cersei???”

Ooo, interesting. Of course he betrayed Cersei by siding with the Starks so I don’t see how his face would be met with anything but a crossbow bolt to the eye if he showed up at her doorstep. :/ Even if Arya could somehow BS her way in, no way the Mountain or a bunch of guards wouldn’t be in the room when they met. I think she’d need Qyburn or Jamie’s face.
