snow is the man Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 That everything past when the bell rings was just in her head and it pops back to her being there at some point and she realizes what she was about to do. Then she either burns down the red keep to kill cersei or she accepts the surrender. Usually this would infuriate me to no end. However it would show her start to lose it and make her realize how close she came.... I don't expect this however as an idea what do you think?

RhaenysBee Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Have you seen the preview? Its not going to happen and even if it did, it would be a horrible storytelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euron III Greyjoy Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 They wouldn't waste that much money on what happened this episode, only for a cheap "it was only a dream" moment. I'm not a fan of moments like that at all, and whilst I absolutely hated this episode, I think it being a dream would infuriate me even more.

StoneColdJorahMormont Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 What if it was one of the many possible futures that Brans new power is able to see :O No... the previews from next week see's the aftermath it happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallam Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 We have already seen this twice in vision sequences. Danny was never the white savior people projected onto her. Just like most politicians are not what their supporters imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 I think the whole thing from Bra n could be a dream. and he wakes up from a coma. Ned could still died but instead Stannis takes kings landing and Sans a is married to a knight. ary a and the hound still are having adventures and jon and ygritte live north. Because the white walkers make a deal with the wildlings . Knight king kills 3eyed raven as wanted so makes peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradam Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 If your going to go that far might as well end it with small child Bran opening his eyes right after his fall from the tower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theon’sdick Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 This is unlikely, but take solace in the fact that if the books are ever finished, that it will make this look like a choose your own ending book. That said, D&D (I believe) did use this ending because GRRM told them this years ago. They may not have been able to get there in a believable way because it’s a TV show and they decided to go for spectacle over story (which I can’t say I mind). My point is that I think GRRM means to have Dany burn innocent people in King’s Landing in the books as well but it will have a much different story leading up to it and after it. I read that this was his version of “The Scouring Of The Shire”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btfu806 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 I don't think a show has ever done, "it's all a dream" well. Even if the whole show isn't a dream, and just that section, then it just feels like a giant waste of time and a way to "shock" us for the sake of shocking us. D&D are bad writers, but I doubt even they would stoop that low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the tower of albion Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 I've decided the whole mad queen thing is the same trick they pulled with Arya and Sansa last season (that they hate each other). Dany will be able to justify vengeance on the Lannisters and the Crown Lands for not taking their forces North. This is what happens when you break faith with the Dragon. Jon may be angry and storm off back to the North but no shitty murder exile plot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading the title, I was going to post that it was all a bad dream that Bran had after seeing his dad behead the Night Watch deserter - apart from prologue and very first chapter of AGOT, nothing is real :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm amazed that in the process of making one of many unconvincing excuses for the show's shitty writing, you somehow wrote something even worse. Congratulations!

Bradam Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Que last scene, Sean Bean shakes his head a bit, says "whaaat?" "sir a desertor from the night watch has been caught" "oh sorry I was daydreaming, lets go chop the fools head off, bring Bran!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orphalesion Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 If it were to go down that route the only acceptable version would be Dany waking up in Meereen, back in Season 4, so that all the horribleness of season 5-8 never happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
