hey remember this show

it's weird that HBO hasn't released a title for this (or the rest of the season's episodes) yet. PROB just a marketing ploy but I wonder if there's more to it

The new credits sequence was p sweet

p much just a set-up episode, didn't really love or hate any of it. The last scene with Jon makes me HOPEFUL that there'll be some interesting wedge driven between him and Dany but tbh it's probably just gonna be a temporary bump in the road

also how many Arya reunions can fit in one episode. DAMN

her telling Jon that Sansa's "the smartest person she's ever met" made me gag a lil. WAT??

I did like the implied fact that Bran has just been parked in the same spot in the courtyard for like a day straight. POOR GUY

It's still so sad to me that Tyrion has just...nothing to do...ever. For several seasons. He has like no purpose on the show anymore. He's got FIRST BILLING! Give the man a story

Sansa's "I used to think you were the smartest man I've ever met" line was ironically apropos. He was precisely until D&D ran out of book material, and now he's either perma-somber or spouting lame one-liners. Same with Varys, the first scene with them this ep was a perfect example of their new characters

This episode was written by the staff writer who came up with the Olly arc!
