Also, squirrely Qyburn is down in the lab whipping up the Seven Kingdom’s first anti-aircraft weapon like he can actually take down a dragon. With the help of her brother Jamie, the Lannisters have worked to convince the remaining loyal houses to fight against the Mad King’s daughter and her horde of terrifying Others. ![]() Up there on the pulpit spreading xenophobia and fear, Cersei was one “fake news” mention away from being president material by today’s standards. Cersei LannisterĬersei may have been born to politic. I’m not sure if this means that Arya is going to abandon her plans of going home now, realizing that’s “not her” anymore, or if she was trying respect the new life that her direwolf had forged just as she had been forced to do, but it was a sweet and nostalgic week for Lady Stark. Arya tries to persuade the giant wolf to come home with her, but then says “that’s not you,” a callback to a conversation she had with her father, when she replied to the potential future of being a common lady by saying “that’s not me.” She lets Nymeria go in another moment of self-discovery from the former faceless woman. It seems like the revenge tour is going to have to wait, until Arya runs into another old friend, her direwolf Nymeria. I think the only time Arya has gotten good news in seven seasons is when she found out that she wasn’t going to have to be blind forever, so our girl was pretty excited to hear this. Friends don’t pay, so our girl Arya gets to chow down on Hot Pie’s namesake and drink some ale all while getting compliments for being pretty, basically every girl’s dream, right? Oh, and Hot Pie delivers an absolute stunner of a newsflash, cluing in Arya to the fact that her brother Jon Snow has taken back Winterfell and has been named the King in the North. Yikes, it could only be Littlefinger.The Arya Stark Revenge Tour hit the old stomping grounds this week, returning to the inn where Arya’s closest friend in the whole world (don’t question it) Hot Pie works. How will the Hound's story play out? Will he be reunited with Arya? Who was Sansa writing her letter to, presumably asking for help. We have three episodes left in this season. But heaven help me if that Waif does not get her comeuppance I will jump into the screen and smother her with her orthopaedic sandals. Will Arya die? The preview for next week's suggests not. It is like her version of a walk of atonement but without Supreme Killjoy Septa Unella ringing a bell and intoning "Shame Shame" (please can she be allowed to do this again soon? Even if only as punishment for a dog who has done an errant poo or someone who put the wrong things in the recycling bin). Staring at every face in the city, she realises she cannot trust anyone. She then walks the streets, sodden and desperate as blood pours from her stomach. Like a medieval James Bond, Arya soon resurfaces gulping for air and scrabbling for shore. Satisfied with the lack of bubbles and the spread of blood in the water below, the Waif smirks and walks off. ![]() Not seen since the end of season four when Brienne of Tarth bit off his ear, punched his head with a rock and threw him off a cliff, he was never assumed dead as Arya spared finishing him off with Needle despite being his hostage. And, as the camera panned up, a familiarly disfigured face. Among them was a lone log-carrier, a hulk of a chap with enormous strength. Groups of men in honest, clean-living trousers carried logs to the site. In an unusual move, Game of Thrones delayed the familiar opening titles to spring straight into a sort of Kangaroo Valley hippie commune run by Ian McShane and a band of happy men and women in cheesecloth vests and dresses toiling with honest hands and healthy smiles as they built a church-like building in a green valley. Credit:HBO/Helen Sloanīut before this we were treated to the return of Sandor 'The Hound' Clegane, Margaery proving she is taking the High Sparrow for a ride, Lady Olenna's magnificent insults to Cersei and a tiny Mormont, with the mouth of an old general. Game of Thrones' The Broken Man sees The Hound return.
