Recap of episode 2 of Game of Thrones: Let's sit in front of the fire before dying



[ad_1]

Well, because we all know what will happen next: pain and many things.

Winterfell is preparing for the battle. For the average person, this involves a lot of training, fighting and weapons making, as well as go-anywhere, but for the main characters, this means mostly drinking fermented goat's milk and getting put in bales of hay.

Hey, everyone is pretty sure to die anyway.

Everyone except Daenerys, that is to say. What would explain why she is still concerned about governing the Seven Kingdoms while there is a whole army of dead at her doorstep? It is not dense and saw the threat of the army of the dead firsthand. So there is no other explanation than to assume that she is really very confident that the king of the night will be an easy victory.

Even when Jon (finally!) Confesses the truth – that he is the son of his brother and a legitimate Targaryen – his first thought is not "Wow, I have relationships with my nephew" , is that Jon is now his royal competition.

Of course, the bar for incest in this show is pretty low, but it still deserves attention, you know?

After a tense discussion, Jamie is reluctantly greeted by Winterfell, giving him plenty of time to catch up with Brienne, Tyrion and The Artist, formerly known as Bran. Bran politely refrains from telling everyone that Jaime had definitely tried to kill him all those years ago. He explains that Jamie is now helpful in the coming war and that, without wanting to offend anyone, the newly purchased knight is bold enough to presume that he will survive. Despite all his power, Bran's social skills definitely shout "A guy who's been educated inside a tree".

Speaking of tension, Daenerys always disagrees with Sansa, who is always trying to figure out how to feed everyone and get a general idea of โ€‹โ€‹what the North will look like once everything is said and done. Sensitive – or should we say, SANSABLE.

That said Dany has a pretty good vision of what his reign of the iron throne will look like, without much thought about the future of his nephew Boo's homeland. And just like that, their budding fraternity is quickly blocked.

Dany also disagrees with Tyrion, who realized that Cersei would never send his army to the North and lied about it to protect her or did not realize that she was n & # 39; She would not send her army and that she is no longer very intelligent. Even if the Jorah Man tries to defend Tyrion and his sometimes clever elegance, the fracture between Dany and Tyrion is still palpable.

It's a bit ironic, since Tyrion is basically the only other character of this week, in the tension minutes that precede the war, to show a glimmer of hope for his survival. After all, you can not die at age 80 with a belly full of wine and a [redacted’s] [redacted] around your [redacted] if a white walker gets you first.

Thus ends the episode, with Tyrion between the Winterfell Merlons and, on the other side of the dark night, the frozen limbs of an older KISS takeover band.

Hot questions

If Bran knows everything that has happened and is going to happen, and is the only person able to succinctly explain what the King of the Night wants, why does he spend most of his time to wait in the courtyards and look at the trees? We need INTEL, Bran and non Gothic monologues about the persistence of memory!

Will Ghost do something soon or just waste CGI's budget to remind people that it still exists?

Will one of the main characters actually stay away from the fight? It would be a daring move, but Gendry DOR looked pretty sleepy and Davos became quite old …

Where are the Dothraki? Are they okay? This time can not be good for them. Did Davos at least bring them some soup?

Melisandre, what's up? We have some burning questions for you specifically. No, no questions about engraving. But you would be very helpful at the moment.

Best line

Tyrion to Jaime: "She never fooled you, you always knew who she was and you loved her anyway."

Tyrion may be rusty in the common sense department, but he has always pinned the relationship of his faithful brother and his treacherous sister perfectly. Oh sweet Jaime, what you did for love.

Worst line

Sam to Jorah: "I hope we win."

Best scene

Jaime: "Brienne, I will make you the knight, giving you the dream that you have always kept in your heart but that you never thought you could speak aloud.Let your tears flow during this moment really pure and deeply emotional as I you show him, in words and deeds, that you are worthy of honor and respect, and that I will willingly die by your side as an equal and a friend. "

Tormund: "My stomach hurt."

Ship Watch

Tormund and Brienne and Jaime

Yes, we know that you like the tall lady, Tormund. EVERYONE knows you love the tall lady. But if you want to win the big lady, you have to give the big lady what she wants: Chivalry and personal space!

Missandei and gray worm

Two of the most sensitive characters in the series discuss one of the most sensible plans: get out of this frozen death hole as fast as you can and go to the beach. Hoping that they hope to be able to pursue the butterflies together on Naath ๐Ÿ™

Arya and Gendry

HOO BOY, this boat turned into a fast boat and we were NOT ready. Arya's last look while she was naked next to her forge friend was interesting, though. Could there be something else at stake here?

Number of deaths

Nobody … Really? Nobody? [checks notes] It can not be good.

Observations lost

All right, Cersei is still pregnant, to the best of her brothers' terrible knowledge.

Sam, joining Bran in his reflections on the fragility of human memory, was not only he who had the sadness of his dead family. It also supports a popular theory of the fans that Sam will survive this mess and will be the one who will put all the story in parchment at the Citadel.

Also, giving Ser Jorah the Valyrian steel sword from his dead father is a good idea. As soon as Sam stole it from his father, you knew it would become important. Well, we hope it becomes important.

Podrick has a beautiful voice and long hair now? Who allowed this to happen?

Theon fans, you have your moment. His bow of redemption is over and he has Sansa's complete approval. Related: The obtaining of Sansa's approval has somehow become a true merit criterion for this show, and you can not argue with the results.

Speaking of Sansa, she is wearing this Littlefinger necklace again. In fact, all his activity was very … Littlefingery. We do not say that she will take the torch of the chaotic schemer. She always learned from those who betrayed her, so the personality is probably part of her personality "I know BS when I see him".

A bold prediction

The crypt is going to be wight city

"Women and children go to the crypt! They will be safe there!"

Narrator: "They certainly will not be safe there."
