It’s the beginning of the end, and it
feels like it. For Game of Thrones, that’s a good thing because the
middle was really hard. We’ve been punished enough, and now it’s
time for some payoff. Arya seems to be our one-way ticket to
instant gratification picking up her murder tour left off and
killing every fucking Frey in the house. It’s great. Here’s to
hoping our favorite Stark keeps the upper hand.
Beric Dondarrion, Thoros of Myr
and the Hound talk of resurrection. They really dig into the
details. BUT FOR WHAT!? If Arya is exacting some kind of analog for
Lady Stoneheart’s revenge, then why do they keep on about coming
back from the dead? What does it mean, nerds?
Our other lone lady wolf, Sansa
is as strategic as ever and without apology. Her agency is a stark
contrast to seasons past (you see what I did there?), and it is
refreshing. As the clans in the North come together to battle
Winter and the Night King, Sansa is still playing the game of
thrones. Let’s hope the twisted ways of Kings Landing don’t pollute
the Stark family reunion. Still, we get my favorite line of the
episode as Sansa interrupts Littlefinger’s continued attempts at
manipulation.
Alas, the shiniest North star
continues to be Lady Mormont as she turns gruff, filthy, violent
men into submissive toddlers. I am pretty sure she is the one with
all the magic. Yo, Night King, come at her, bro!
