Her last interaction with the Hound was sort of sweet and her acknowledging him and all that he's done for her over the years was a nice close to their relationship. Maybe the only good end to a relationship we'll get on the show.What about Same and Gilly ?
Sam and Gilly's relationship isn't over so there is no reason for us to be shown a closing to their relationship like we get with Arya and the Hound.
Quote:Quote:The Hound confronting his brother was... okay. It was beautifully shot but the fight itself was underwhelming. I wanted Sandor to grind Gregor's face into hot coals in a "who does it feel, mofo?!?!" kind of way but nope.They both plummeted into a blazing inferno what more do you want ?
Reread my post, I said exactly what I wanted. I even started the sentence with "I wanted".
Quote:Quote:Jaime fighting Euron was silly.Well theons dead so who else was it going to be ?
I said it was silly, not that someone else should fight Jaime.
Quote:Quote:I feel like if he's still alive that it's for a reason and there will be another big revelation in the next episode but with the number of dropped threads and loose ends left twisting in the wind in the last three episodes I'm left wondering if they're even going to do anything with Bran in the last episodeFor example ?
Tyrion's true parentage.

Like?
We never get payoffs to several of Bran's visions/storylines
- Can Bran change the past?
- Will Bran become too enamored of the past?
- We never get an explanation of Bran's weird vision featuring the Mad King, the Night King, and all those flashes of... weirdness.
- What was the significance of Bran having been marked by the Night King?
The fact that Jon was resurrected by Melisandre has only been passingly referenced and has yet to pay off.
Missandei's comment about Dany mistranslating The Prince That Was Promised hasn't been addressed. Is it a prince or a princess?
Dany repeatedly comments throughout the show that her dragons are her children and the only ones she'll ever have, then Jon asks why he believed the witch that told her this. So is Dany really barren? Is she could to have an incest baby with Jon from back before they knew it was incest?
What's the status of Arya's list? Has she just given up on it? Is it going to make a reappearance?
Will we get a payoff of Arya using one of the faces she stole from Braavos? She hasn't used them since the end of season 6, and we haven't seen them since mid(ish)-season 7.
Melisandre's prophecy that Arya will shut many eyes forever, brown eyes, blue eyes, green eyes, were those specific eyes? In which case, whose are the brown and green eyes if the Night King/wights were the blue eyes?
Will we see Sansa ever use the dragonglass dagger that Arya gave her before the battle of Winterfell?
Is Tyrion a Targaryen?
What's going on with Yara and the Iron Islands? Did they just fuck off to Pike to get out of fighting?
What's the deal with Bronn and the crossbow Cersei gave him? Was his encounter with Jaime and Tyrion really the last we'll see of him?
Have we gotten the end of the Lord of Light? Melisandre is dead and all other red priests/priestesses are is Essos but is there more for the Lord of Light to do?
Along with the general questions of what's up with Daario Naharis back in Essos? Edmure Tully in the dungeons of Riverrun? What about Meera Reed who went to spend her last days/weeks with her family? Is Robin Arryn still nutty as squirrel poo? Where even is he?

No one could claim Aemon was mad. Was Aemon's hair color in youth ever described? To my knowledge he's only ever shown as a withered old man. A Wiki of Ice and Fire says he's bald; on the show his hair is white, most likely from age.
