When Jon tells Dany, she looks concerned that he could have a claim, while Jon's main concern is that she is his aunt.

[@jamiemcadams7816]

When the books ended, Arya was 18. So she was 19-20 here. The actress doesn’t look it I know. She and the actress who plays Sansa are the same age (in real life). I have a 15 year old and 26 yo daughter. While I wouldn’t wish this for them at 19, I’m not a fool. They think they’re dying. And there was an attraction there before. Arya at this point has experienced pretty much every darkness in the world, and then some. Give her some love.

[@HuntingViolets]

Arya is supposed to be 11 in the last (so far) of the books. Not much time passes in the books. She was nine in the first book. The children age (and, from a practical standpoint, have to age) much more in the show, so, yes, she's about 18 or more on the show.

[@nameslesss]

arya is 11 years old as of the last book.

[@SherriLyle80s]

​@@nameslesss he hasn't written the last book yet, still the middle.

[@coachnicolejohnson7741]

The end scene with Dany & Jon is very interesting for the storyline and the characters. In that small scene we saw 2 things: Jon’s character. When Jon found out he was the true heir, he could’ve immediately told everyone and sent ravens to all the kingdoms. He didn’t. Like Ned, he kept quiet. Dany’s tunnel vision made her totally miss that point. Second- Dany didn’t learn anything from her terrible reign in Meereen, her brother’s demise chasing the throne, or from Tyrion when he was actually giving sound advice. It takes more than a claim, power, fear, and dragons to be a leader. If she had learned, she would’ve been happy that there was another Targaryen to help replenish the family line and build their house since she cannot birth children. But like her brother, it’s always about “Me, myself, and I”.

[@keef5]

This episode was great and one of my favorites. Shows don’t need action for a great hour of tv

[@kobarsos82]

Couldn't agree more. Plus most of the episodes that have tons of action, in many cases also have a lot of crap that comes with them. So its all relative. This episode was pretty good tbh, and Brienne being knighted probably my favorite part. Well earned.

[@LordErebusBloodmoon]

it's still a mediocre episode compared to early got. But it's the best episode of 28.

[@kobarsos82]

@@LordErebusBloodmoon Yup indeed.

[@alansmith8415]

While you'll talk, try pausing or at least show the video side by side so that the good parts aren't missed out.

[@jesses5463]

FWIW, this is considered one of the top 10 Game of Thrones episodes.

[@SciFiCatGuy]

"A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms" refers not only to Briene being knighted, but it's also a reference to Brienne's great great grandfather, Ser Duncan the Tall. It is the working title of the upcoming HBO prequel series about Ser Duncan and his loyal squire, "Egg," short for Aegon, as in Targaryen, the unlikely future king of the Seven Kingdoms. Brienne and Pod's story was written as a reflection of Dunk and Eggs relationship. Ser Duncan the Tall was also Hodor's grandfather.

[@chipsthedog1]

When Jamie was "on trial" all they had to do was ask Bran did he plot with Cersei to come here with bad intentions? And once Bran sees him tell Cersei that he was going to honour his vow to fight for the living....

[@thedappermagician6905]

I dont understand people not liking Arya and Gendry. When they were kids she called out to him saying that she could be his family and he replied that no, she would be his lady. She has always loved him and if you cant catch that, thats on you.

[@leaundrajones2392]

"Laugh!" She whispers threateningly.

[@zimbo65a]

"Jamie is a wishi-washi knight" is one of the dumbest phrass I´ve ever heared! There is NO ONE like Jamie Lannister who ALWAYS does what he said.

[@Nattiie]

The Jenny song is actually so good. This is what Podrick did to those women, he sang to them. I wish you left it in a bit more!

[@boo5214]

nah he didnt just sing to them he did other things too + maybe the singing

[@chipsthedog1]

I would love to see you react to the Last Kingdom when you have space for a new show. 5 seasons of great story telling and amazing characters all topped off with a movie to finish the story. It's set during the Viking raids and the birth of England as a single country rather than a collection of kingdoms. You will fall in love with some characters and despise others. Please at least consider doing it.

[@jhamler1]

Jamie, and his heel turns, are both the best and worst parts of this entire Game of Thrones narrative.

[@anotherview7937]

Can't believe this journey is nearly over. You two have been great and have brought us back to a special place and time for all fans. Thanks.

[@D.A.Sandoval-qo9mh]

Well said.

[@andiesmonster]

My husband and I are watching at the same pace as y’all which cracks me up because I get the notification of the episode we just watched the next day

[@Gosdatwork]

This is one of mt favorite episodes . It's the calm before the storm. All the stories of these characters led them to this moment. The big moment the moment you been waiting for since episode one. It was good to see all of them and think about their journeys, If you watched them live this was 8 years in real time. So it was touching.

[@FredtheFrisian]

I'm with you!

[@theConquerersMama]

Well said!

[@AlanHollowedPhotography]

This was my fave episode of season 8 😁 I like to imagine it ended after this episode and the night king kills them all and won 🤣🤣🤣

[@boogabuga7657]

If only

[@gamersilviogg9664]

Love the way you guys take a good chunck of time to react afterwards. Cuz so many reactors are like "ok that was a movie , see you guys nect time" bye

[@darlenenoble7232]

Jamie I think wants to redeem hisself. After Joffrey showed him the book with the great knights of Westeros and all the feats they had done. Jamie had nothing next to his name.

[@TheMightyOdin]

Which is crazy because at that point you could fill pages with good things he had done but nobody really knows of them.

[@NameOptional-p9u]

In the books (the books stopped at Dany getting saved by Drogon) , Arya does like Gendry...she is just too young to understand her "attraction" to him.

[@HuntingViolets]

Gendry and Arya are both kids in the books. They're both adults at this point in the show, though. Robert to Ned: "I have a son and you have a daughter. We'll join our houses."

[@neryskkiran1820]

It's awkward to see Arya doing..... you know.... ! Even though she's all grown up, and we're all SO proud of her mass-murdering assassin ninja abilities and achievements... In our heart of hearts, she's still that little girl we were all so broken-hearted for !

[@bigpictureguys8415]

I kinda got the vibe she was asexual 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@bluehope42]

@@bigpictureguys8415 she was checking out Gendry when he was training shirtless in season 2 :P

[@HuntingViolets]

Arya baking people into pies doesn't bother people, but having coming-of-age sex is a problem. It's just funny to me.

[@kittykatt7652]

Jaime is NOT flipflopping! His personality is not one dimensional. Like everybody else, he realizes the need to join in the fight against the dead. He is capable of honor and compassion while still protecting Tyrion and Cercei. I would also argue that Tyrion is doing the same.

[@theConquerersMama]

Well said

[@Stillnene]

Jamie is totally a big ole flipflopper. Any growth he has is flipping and always being reeled back by cercei is flopping. A flipflopper 💁‍♀️

[@FredtheFrisian]

I liked this episode the best of this season. Perhaps it's an age related thing: "more being into drama than action" when you're older?

[@lalamagnoliagyrl]

@1953. PODRICK IS THE MAN. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 Lover of ladies. The song in the night. Yes Sophie, who would’ve known the bumbling squire to Tyrion would save his life, romance the women of Westeros, expertly trained by The Knight of the Seven Kingdoms(Brienne) could sing and become a thief of hearts? 💜

[@NameOptional-p9u]

Yo!!! Jamair looking away from Arya is how we all felt lol. Such an uncomfortable scene lol. Girl your dad is burried right over there!

[@HuntingViolets]

Action isn't everything. This is my favorite episode of this season and one of my favorites of the series. Then again: None of season 8's episodes is without flaw.

[@jaelynn7575]

I think you're joke could be spot on. It'd be like any insular group who is already wary of outsiders and have one approach children. They just didn't know what to do. They'd never seen a person who didn't look like them before.

[@lynnd.5135]

You are right. It's because of race. I am sure they didn’t ignore the wildlings as they had white skin

[@shalanda805]

Y'all got me watching this whole show AGAIN! LOL, I'm not mad though 🤣 😂 y'all be sweethearts and post 3rd episode today, please!? Work is slooow

[@kellifranklin9872]

Sophie your analysis of Jamie is spot on. It was weird to see Arya and Gendry, especially when we met her as a child. I was definitely cringing. Lol Enjoyed y’alls reactions and commentary as always. I love love love the next episode! Mair, you’re right about Davos and the little girl. I love that scene.

[@joshuasutton355]

Yeahh but it's like 7 seasons since season 1 Arya not a 12 year old anymore she's like 18 a season is like a year and the actors grow up so get over the whole ayra having sex

[@czest-d7f]

The way y'all are fighting soooo hard against Jaime characterization realizations LMAO! Also, men looove to profess how much they stan Arya, until she turned out to be an actual woman.

[@NameOptional-p9u]

Tormund deserves Brienne. They would have the best kids and she would have someone that was infatuated with her.

[@HuntingViolets]

Brienne is a person, not a prize someone "deserves" and is rewarded with.

[@NameOptional-p9u]

@@HuntingViolets , Brienne is not a person..... lol

[@theConquerersMama]

​@HuntingViolets right? Heaven forbid Brienne have a say in what shevlikes, doesn't like or wants. Much less is attracted too. It certainly doesn't seem to be Tormund.

[@berjadussaussois6208]

Next episode is the best episode in TV history up there with the battle of the barstard episode, the tension, action, acting, cinematography like i felt i was on the edge of my seat at the CINEMA! During those times it was sooooo big the tension leading up to this episode it was all everyone was talking about, rushing home to watch it! 😂😂 enjoy

Mairs reaction about Arya having sex was mine too! that "No We Won't" was -"we aint finna talk about or acknowledge this shit" 😂😂 It was giving big brother aint about to endorse this, and i FELT THAT too when i watched cause its like your younger sibling in a weird way. Like lil girl we dont even know your age so youre still lil Arya from season 1-3 as far as we're concerned and you still borderline being the same size dont help😅

Dont worry Sophie I laughed at your Arya joke at the beginning 🤣🤣

[@HuntingViolets]

Hearing how wishy-washy Jaime is is so mindblowing. What the showrunners have done to this character.

[@cindymonahan3741]

I don’t feel that he is wishy washy. I think he ends up doing more good than bad.

[@marvinbolden6882]

Only 6 episodes guys.

[@JulieAnn02261990]

I personally enjoyed an episode without violence and death, characters being real and reconnecting. I thought this episode was fantastic.

[@gregwillett2710]

12:21 - YO I JUST REALIZED FOR THE FIRST TIME that Bran absolutely does know that dragon fire won't stop him - but he's lying because he doesn't want to kill moral right before the battle. WOW...This show still has cool stuff hidden in it even after watching it so many times. I never put that together before

[@boogabuga7657]

How does he know? No dragons ever flew north of the wall.

[@gregwillett2710]

@boogabuga7657 remember, Bran knows what's about to happen - how things are to shake out. He even adds his own contribution. Hard to really explain I the comments without spoiling the next episode

[@boogabuga7657]

@@gregwillett2710 I guess that’s true I forgot he can essentially see into the future. I wouldn’t worry about spoiling, I’m pretty sure they’ve already finished the show considering patreon is a week ahead.

[@AndyT81]

He may also not be able to see the Night Kings future due to the magic he has. The spoilers can only really come from the Patreon people at this point.

[@tylabarros1506]

Do we know for sure that Bran sees the future? It's never mentioned and he's only said that he can see the past and present. He was somewhat surprised when Arya showed up at Winterfell. He said he thought she might go to KL. And when someone asks him about killing the night king, he says "I don't know, no one's ever tried that before." I don't think he knows the future, unless he was maybe told certain major events by Jojen or the former 3 Eyed Raven.

[@D.A.Sandoval-qo9mh]

Luv you guy's genuine reactions, and your thoughts on why you feel that way.

[@robeccs]

A great reaction as usually. The only thing i don't care for is the new rating system. It kinda changes the dynamics/vibes of you alls breakdown of the episodes IMP. Other than that good job! 🍻👍🏽✌🏽

[@theConquerersMama]

Yeah, not a fan of ratings like that. But have really enjoyed this ride with them.

[@lalamagnoliagyrl]

@1706 Jamair’s face 🫤 😂💀😂💀😂💀 Every man I’ve seen react to this seems to NEVER pick up on the tension between Arya and Gendry. @Sophie 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Yes it’s weird cuz we watched these two grow up for 8 years and NOW they’re age appropriate doing other things together 🤨🤭☺️ But on the plus side…Arya is probably the only girl on the show that wasn’t forced to be active as a young girl. Every other girl was either sold off or arranged. Even the older women were arranged as well…remember Cersei telling Ned of her wedding day…she was arranged young too. So essentially Arya was kept a girl thru her years until she was of age to pick her first time😊

[@kcclarke6528]

Pleas please drop 8x03 TODAY PLEASE ❤ lol

What you guys consider a "good ending" would be a god awful ending from my perspectie. Imagine if Breaking Bad had a "good ending"....... YUCK

[@kobarsos82]

Like Ramsey said, if you thought this would have a good ending, then you haven't been paying attention. However that's not the problem. The facts are not the problem, the execution aka the 'how" is what makes the ending lose value at the end of the day. Its simply not believable enough.

We watched ayra’s training, yeah she got better, but not sure where she became this ultimate bad ass who can hit targets with barely any effort.

[@HuntingViolets]

Eh. Cersei fooled Jaime a lot. She didn't fool Tyrion, but he still loved her (I guess; that's what they've sold most recently). I don't know why they're having Brienne say Jaime insults her every time they talk. Did he insult her at Riverrun? I don't think so. The continuity fairies are on vacation.
