Or DC never allowed Superman to lift an airplane. Imagine if the writers of X-Men never used Wolverine’s healing factor. Will we see Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) use her powers again in Episode 5 of Season 8 like we did in the 10th and final episode of Season 6? Helen Sloan/HBO When Will Arya Actually Use Her Special Faceless Men Powers? I also like her enough to know that she’s better off without anyone else, let alone a Lannister. She’s the only one speaking reason, especially in contrast to Daenerys. Yes, he’s been something of the show’s moral compass despite his rampant drinking (that’s when he knows things), and he did treat her well, but that doesn’t mean he should be tossed into a Disney ending with Sansa, the bird-no-more. It’s another thing to stick her with somebody that was “one of the good ones.” Gross.Īnd by-the-by, Tyrion ain’t one of those guys. It was one thing to write Sansa framing her sexual assault traumas as making her stronger. When Tyrion and Sansa started, I dunno, started stealing glances at each other, I got hives. Hey, I’m going to say something that’s hard to believe, but I think Game of Thrones is pretty terrible at writing women. Sophie Turner and Peter Dinklage in Season 8, Episode 3 of 'Game of Thrones'. Oh God, Tyrion and Sansa Are Gonna Hook Up, Aren’t They? Will word get back to her that her top advisors are questioning her? Will she be forced to execute or imprison them? Melisandre did tell Varys he’d die in Westeros, so maybe the time has finally come. Is she actually going to become the “Mad Queen”?Īs the pressure builds to secure Dany’s victory over Cersei in the penultimate episode, we should prepare for Dany to take no prisoners and remove anyone who is not completely in her corner she’s come too far to be doubted now. In Episode 4, “The Last of the Starks,” Varys and Tyrion discover Jon’s true identity (thanks, Sansa), and it leads to them question Dany’s stability as a leader and her claim to the throne. Similarly, Tyrion has been skating on thin ice with Dany throughout Seasons 7 and 8, with his advice either falling on deaf ears or his plans going awry. So, not exactly the best way to build a healthy working relationship. HBOĭaenerys made it clear in Season 7 that if she ever found out Lord Varys was plotting to remove her from the Iron Throne, she would make sure he was executed. What does Daenerys know? Emilia Clarke in Episode 5 of Season 8 of 'Game of Thrones'. What if Euron is seeing a huge dragon clad in shining metal armor flying toward him? The more mundane alternative is that Drogon used the clouds as cover and simply got the drop on Euron’s fleet. Yet another possibility is that after their previous encounter, Daenerys spent a few weeks gearing up for the Battle of King’s Landing by having the smiths craft dragon armor for Drogon, her final surviving dragon. This feels far-fetched, but Euron would react this way if he saw a huge black dragon and the zombie of the dragon he just killed flying toward him. Some fans think that Bran Stark might use his Three-Eyed Raven powers to warg into the dead dragon Rhaegal. This scene is in the Episode 5 trailer, so we’ll learn why on Sunday. It’s not the reaction one would expect from an arrogant pirate - especially one who has just insta-killed a dragon with Scorpion spears from a long distance. We hear the shriek of a dragon, and he looks crestfallen.
In the final shot of the Episode 5 preview (watch it above), Euron Greyjoy is at the bow of his ship, looking into a cloudy sky.
