    The one thing i dont get is that danareys has no opposition now bar cersi, and the lannisters are already in a bad spot. No tyrells propping them up.

    Dornish and tyrells obviously will be there for dany, starks have no interest in southern war as long as they have the north.

    I just dont see whose there to oppose her at all. Besides the white walkers.

    How can there be any doubt on anyone's minds? A red herring? Seriously? It was as plain as day.

    Protect him, if he finds out, he'll kill him.
    Promise me Ned. (I'm certain that all she said in the "whisper")

    Dramatic music, close up of baby, cut it Jon Snow....

    Very good finish to the season. All that was missing was the White Walkers marching on the wall, although that would be a nice opening episode for S7.

    They bloody did it again:mad: Regardless of how good an episode is they have to stop "dramatically" ending with a dragon flying by the camera and cutting to black as it squeals.

    Did everyone remember this scene during Frey's assassination scene?

    That's probably because, while a well known theory, it's very much only something well known to book readers.

    have we ever seen a group of young kids kill someone in such graphic detail..never mind a young kid jumping to his death.

    pushing the boundries of tv


    epic episode...i know alot of my mates will complain of lack of white walkers but I think it was ended perfectly.i think dany needs to be established in westoros before we see the white walkers otherwise there will be no hope that her army our dragins can mount a defense or attack against the WW's.

    didnt like margerys death for obvious reasons. :)

    There has been plenty of evidence provided in the show to suggest it. It's finally confirmed now.

    No he is has a higher claim to the throne then her since he is the son of Rhaegar.

    Did Varys get ships from Dorne and Lady Olenna? I wasn't sure what the sigils were on the flags, but thought that's what he may have been doing there? They give ships, Dany destroys the lannisters, win/win for both the sandsnakes and the Tyrells...??

    Is it just me or would Dany and the dragons not annihilate the white walkers with dragon fire? What am I not thinking about when it comes to the threat of them vs Drogon & co?

    What has that got to do with the question asked? He could very conceivably marry her.

    Regardless:

    a) nobody knows he's even entitled to a claim. Bran is probably still figuring out what it means.

    b) Dany has a 100,000 strong army, an armada and three big ****-off dragons.

    a)Mary his aunt? Doubt that.

    b)Are dragons allowed to harm a Targaryen?
    We'll wait and see and what happens next season.

    Yes you can see Dorne and Highgarden ships in the fleet. Assume Varys travelled with them to meetup with Dany.

    The reason I asked it because it's alluded to in the episode that Danny will have to marry who better than the King of the North who also wants the Lannisters gone (end goal) and the two of them could reign as king and queen of the 7 kingdoms its where I see it heading anyway

    Do bastards not have a rightful claim?
    In season 1 & two, didn't Cersi try and wipe out all of Roberts bastard's in Kings Landing. They must have been in the line of succession if she was that worried about them.

    Why not? Targs marry their families all the time. Why not an aunt?

    As for Jon being a bastard, can't say it in this thread, but we'll see about that...

    They can make a claim, if they have support and can get someone to legitimise them (which could happen after wars are won)
