81. My guess

Jun 2016

is that there has not been a battle in Meereen yet - will the dragon be able to torch all those ships before they can land a significant number of troops?

My guess is that Theon and Yara and the Iron Islanders will ambush the ships from the slavers.

The Blackfish may not be dead - maybe he escaped and the soldier feared Jamie's wrath?

The big battle at Winterfell is going to be the next episode, which is entitled The Battle of the Bastards. I'll post a separate thread with a preview.

2 hours to go NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #10

Based on the title of this show I assume Arya's arc with Baitball Blogger Jun 2016 #11

Titles usually have more than one meaning NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #12

Only a few more minutes to go NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #13

here we go NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #14

and so it begins Solly Mack Jun 2016 #15

if you look, though NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #16

Perhaps, but there was blood. Maybe the cuts didn't go too deep. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #19

back to the mummer's play NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #17

Reminders of Joffrey's death give me the giggles. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #18

So she will be the one that helps Arya. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #20

Yes NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #21

Maybe. Probably. I think someone from the past is showing up. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #23

One good turn deserves another. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #22

and the Hound bites back. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #24

wow NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #25

Religion is nothing if not malleable. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #26

Varys is going back - so that part of the book will probably play out. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #27

Lancel is an idiot Solly Mack Jun 2016 #28

That was short if not sweet. I would have killed them all. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #30

I thought they'd all be dead NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #31

Those two have a complicated relationship. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #32

I thought Brienne had the Blackfish persuaded for a while NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #34

She'll sneak out when he does. He'll go to Sansa. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #40

when the siege breaks the walls NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #41

Yes...and maybe she will too. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #42

Another case where we didn't see the death actually happen. Baitball Blogger Jun 2016 #64

good point NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #65

Or this may have been a case where the writers are trying to tone Baitball Blogger Jun 2016 #67

Any bets on how long Kevan will live? Solly Mack Jun 2016 #33

Tommen forbids Trial by Combat NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #36

Yep. That's a big Oops for Cersei. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #37

Sounds like she found a loophole. Baitball Blogger Jun 2016 #45

Most likely Solly Mack Jun 2016 #47

Speculation WolverineDG Jun 2016 #86

Oops. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #35

wow NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #38

Ships! Handy! Solly Mack Jun 2016 #39

Someone give me the background on Caitland Stark's brother? Baitball Blogger Jun 2016 #43

He got married at the Red Wedding. He married a Frey. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #46

That was the forced wedding, wasn't it? Baitball Blogger Jun 2016 #62

Yes, and no. He agreed to marry a Frey daughter as means of sealing the (albeit false) peace. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #63

Jaime is also an idiot. Cersei loves Cersei. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #44

They're killing the Blackfish off in the show? Solly Mack Jun 2016 #48

It's strange that we didn't see him killed off. Baitball Blogger Jun 2016 #66

I still need to see the body though. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #68

Yep. Agree. Baitball Blogger Jun 2016 #70

I dunno, those bandits that Sandor killed was pretty gory. cemaphonic Jun 2016 #75

Then again in this show even dead isn't dead. n/t PoliticAverse Jun 2016 #73

True. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #74

WTF was the point of bringing back the great character WolverineDG Jun 2016 #85

I know, right? What an excellent idea! (BF in the boat, under cover) Solly Mack Jun 2016 #89

I'm also thinking that Edmure is playing a waiting game WolverineDG Jun 2016 #92

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks Edmure is a dumbass. lol Solly Mack Jun 2016 #94

Dragons! (guess) Solly Mack Jun 2016 #49

Dondarrion! Solly Mack Jun 2016 #50

The Hound would gladly help Sansa. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #51

Brienne meeting up with the Hound & the Brothers WolverineDG Jun 2016 #87

Yara (Asha) and Theon could help do just that. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #90

He did protect her from being gang-raped WolverineDG Jun 2016 #93

Arya! That was odd. Who was that man? The waif. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #52

and who to the rescue? Who! Who! Who! Solly Mack Jun 2016 #53

That Waif is going to die. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #54

Ha! Ha! Ha! Solly Mack Jun 2016 #55

Course, if Arya is now faceless I will mourn. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #56

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Yes!!!!!! Knew it! Yes!!!!!!!!! Solly Mack Jun 2016 #57

Yes NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #58

I hated the thought of her as one of the Faceless. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #59

Yes NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #60

I think "Jaqen H'ghar" will allow her to go. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #61

And he let her. Baitball Blogger Jun 2016 #69

He seemed pleased to me. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #71

I'm watching again because Solly Mack Jun 2016 #76

I'm pretty sure I know what Cersei is planning but I can't help but imagine it'll go badly. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #77

Again, Jaime's loyalty is so misplaced. Cersei, of the books, doesn't love Jaime. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #78

They've made some changes to the Lannisters I'm not too happy with NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #79

Yes! I wanted that exchange to be in the show. A clean break, as you say. The more removed Tyrion Solly Mack Jun 2016 #83

Yes NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #84

Makes for a cleaner hero, so to speak, for Tyrion's entire character to be downplayed some. Solly Mack Jun 2016 #91

Anyone else annoyed by the barrage of off-screen fights? Oneironaut Jun 2016 #80

My guess NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #81

Don't forget there's 2 dragons in the basement WolverineDG Jun 2016 #88
