1. Always listen to a girl's "pointless" talks : Gilly (who I think is one of the most adorable characters) went from talking about steps in the citadel, to windows in the sept of Baelor to a man's bowel movement and then gave the greatest reveal in the entire series till date and Sam ignored everyone of them. If you are man reading this, better start thinking back at all the supposed pointless chatter from your wife or girlfriend or sister, you might actually find sandwiched in them, something that can change your life . We all knew from last season that Jon was not just a bastard son of Ned stark but was the son of Raeghar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark. But of course we believed Raeghar to be married to Elia Martel which made any son between him and Lyanna a Bastard. Bastards can't be Hiers to thrones. But Gilly finding out that Raeghar actually married Lyanna means that Jon is a true born son and has a bigger claim than Cercie or Dany. How will both parties take this news? And isn't it ironic that the real heir to the throne has no interest in it while the other two fight for it? For long we have thought Jon was Ice and Dany was fire, but this just proves that Jon is both Ice (stark blood) and Fire (Targaryen blood).
2. Cercie will be the end of Jamie: no one knows how to play the game like Cercie. She is the chief manipulator and for long she had manipulated her twin brother into doing every single thing for her. Just when we hoped Jamie might be getting out of that trap, boom! She's pregnant with a baby, tying the poor guy further to her apron strings. With that, Jamie will be ready to give his life for her because he now has one more reason to.
3[b]. Stark/Baratheon Reunion: [/b] One of the biggest stories in game of thrones folk lore is the friendship between Robert Baratheon and Ned Stark. That friendship conquered the seven kingdoms during Robert's rebellion and smashed the greyjoys during the greyjoy rebellion. It is nice that Jon and Gendry might want to replicate that friendship. Would they together rebuild the seven kingdoms like Ned and Robert did? Seeing Gendry with the exact prototype of the war harmer Robert used was also refreshing.
4. Littlefinger is still Littlefinger: Well here I was thinking the former master of coin was losing it. But this episode showed he still has his game on. Turning both sisters against each other was a master stroke. Arya and Sansa never had the best of relationship from their young age and playing on the friction means that Littlefinger gets to make Arya look like the enemy while he keeps Sansa in his pocket. The letter he let Arya see was the one Sansa was forced to write from kings landing to her Robb stark back in season 1, detailing how Ned connived to steal the throne from Joffery. This will definitely not go down we with Arya stark. But I still can't shake the feeling that this plan will be the end of Littlefinger.
5. Next episode to see the death of major Characters: I love how fast paced this episode was and it was full of excitement. The meeting of major characters makes next episode even more intriguing due to the formation of what I call the Suicide squad. The wolf, The bear, The Hammer, The Priest, The deadman, The wildling and The hound. These are men that have absolutely no reason to like each other. Gendry should hate the brotherhood for selling him to Melisandre. Tormound and Jorah should be on each other's necks. But they have united for a common course. Jorah and Thoros of myr should know each other well from their battle against the Greyjoys. But who will make it back from the wall? I am only certain of Jon and Sandor Clegane. It will be cruel to bring Gendry back, tease a possible friendship with Jon only to have him killed immediately, but that is something Game of thrones can do. Sir Jorah is certain to die as I believe he will be a complication to Dany at this point. Beric will die and can't be brought back to life if Thoros dies first. And Thormond? I don't want him to die. I love him, but Game of thrones love breaking our hearts.
