She does not say that something huge will be revealed, but that "episode 5 is bigger" and then she says "find the biggest TV you can"; so I guess her words are more in the order of "visually stunning", not in the sense of a big revelation.

Hippocras Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Well I do think it is likely to be the most interesting episode of the season in terms of various schemes, betrayals and conflicts coming to their conclusion, likely with some of those schemes being things that cause us as the audience intense agony. Episode 5 is the second to last, so it is, just like Ned's execution, and the Red Wedding, the episode where the earthquake events happen, while the final episode wraps things up.

But only after he gets a few more hundreds or thousands killed by doing something stupid, and he is killed by the drunk queen, which is a fitting end for him as he hasn't made a good call since maybe somewhere in season 5?

But I don't think Jon kills Dany, although since it would be a truly horrible end of the story, thereby utterly destroying both of their stories which are only about 80% ruined, it could happen, but I doubt it. Honestly, at this point if Danny doesn t get the throne what is the point of her entire story? Kill all the dothriaki in the world? Give a dragon and means of breaking the wall to the NK? killing all the unsullied we know of? Doing nothing in the war again the dead? Given what they did this ep it is probable that Danny will die... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given what they did this ep it is probable that Danny will die... What's the point of Jon's story? If he dies now, he's a high profile failure. If he rules Westeros, he's a high profile failure who failed up somehow. I don't know which is worse. But, same for Dany, she has gotten so many of her allies killed for no reason, because: Arya was all that was needed, if she doesn't ultimately get the IT, what was the purpose, just getting people killed? But then, do you want someone with judgement that poor that they get 2/3 or more of their allies killed to be running your country? And if they BOTH live, it's like a bizarro Disney ending tacked on to a dark story? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong, but I really think the show believes they are showing us Dany being a StrongWomanLeader. In the same way that despite the things that Sansa says and does are mostly shortsighted and inappropriate, the show is telegraphing to us that we are to see these things she does as StrongWomanLeader. So, I doubt that Dany goes crazy. But, after ep3, I wouldn't rule out any inanity as being off the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can t imagine show Danny doing it. It would be extremely weird! And it doesn t need to be a disney ending for both of them to survive. It can still be bittersweet depending in what happens to the other people and westeros as a whole. However they have developed these last 3 eps very poorly. First I have no idea why jon would want the IT, then if they wanted to go this route I would expect more regions to be involved in the final battle and some people planning to betray them for Cersei or to put Jon on the throne instead of Danny) without him knowing) or something along those lines.... The problem is that now we don t have believable political games. I just can t believe in a feud between jon and Danny after they fell in love and fought this war together. Ah, in regards to people believing in Jon's legitimacy. With the north, vale and river lands (because of family ties) believing in the story he has the support of more than half of westeros...

No one wants Jon as King. Not even the Northerners, they want Sansa and the Vale wants Sansa. The South isn't going to even believe that the White Walkers were real, why would they? Of course if the show wants it to happen, it will happen, but what they have actually put on the screen is of Jon Snow as a brutally incompetent leader whose own people rejected him after he bent the knee.

Of course if the show wants it to happen, it will happen, but what they have actually put on the screen is of Jon Snow as a brutally incompetent leader whose own people rejected him after he bent the knee. I would say they have shown that jon is the leader with the better ideas and that everybody ends up hating because they are small minded. Every time jon made a decision (and they were the right decisions) everybody basically rises agains him (cersei is really lucky to not be in the north). After this battle the northerns either are extremely angry because he and danny made a bad situation even worse or as all people in the show are stupid will be very happy. I mean, danny defended their realm and jon was able to see the bigger picture and bring the dragon queen to the north. And if the north is happy the vale is also happy because they are sansa's little bitch... And as the riverlands are kin to sansa and arya and were allied to robb it makes sense they will follow whatever the starks tell them. So if the starks want to sell jon as rhaegar's son it makes sense that most of westeros believes them for familly ties. If we take into account that the westerlands should be in crumbles and that whatever remains of the reach should believe in the word of a tarly then most of westeros should accept jon as a targ… Even the stormlands might be receptive through davos for some reason... And now I now how we will end the show. Jon is crowned king and then "3 months later" we have the small council stabbing jon NW style! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackLightning Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 So the big twist happens in this episode? Perhaps they will end it in episode 5 and episode 6 will be just a sequel about what happened after years later? I would hate that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
