    We’ve got all the major players in the battle vs the dead in winterfell. Cersei has her army now as well. Our stew is ready and will be served next Sunday

    Agree but Jon isn’t really a Stark. And she knows nothing of what he’s done other that the battle of the bastards.

    She is being what a someone would do if they were a bastard in a family regardless of age or experience.

    That’s my take anyways...

    I'm expecting a brief Jaime trial to begin the episode (not a big secret given the preview). It will then get interrupted by the Night King's army arriving and all hell will break loose before the Jaime hearing can even conclude.

    He has had the best arc in the show, and one of the best arcs in the history of television. It's Walter White levels of development.

    He's going to have to earn the trust of everyone in that courtroom save Tyrion, but he will.

    Just like last season, I can’t shake the feeling that the whole thing feels rushed and like crossing off a list of to-dos. None of these reunions and crossed paths felt poignant except for Jon and Arya—they just don’t have space to breathe. It baffles me why these seasons are shortened.

    After Jon tells Arya that he is family too she responds with “don’t forget that”. I took it as her possibly knowing the truth

    Good episode. Like others have said Sam stole the episode. The way he handles the news of his dad and brother with basically just facial expressions was incredible.

    Also how much older is Dany than Jon?

    I’m predicting they’re going to lose badly at winterfell, maybe even lose another dragon. Retreat, wind up dealing with Cersei while regrouping, then face the night king in kings landing for all the marbles.

    She was an infant when Kings Landing got sacked and Jon was probably born around that time. So only a few months.

    Don't think it was meant that way at all. It was meant as "you brought these outsiders in here, and we get it on some level, but don't forget who your real family is."

    They were very young when the fled during Robert’s Rebellion. I’m not sure it’s ever mentioned but I’d guess 5-7 years.
