    Goes without saying that Dany is off the rails..even more so after the 'betrayal'. I thought she might spare the city after hearing the bell, and maybe just go light-up Cersei in the Red Keep. That would have been a much more fitting ending for Cersei. Oh well. Yeah, I agree that everybody wants her gone at this point; even the Unsullied are over her now. Maybe she sees the writing on the wall that she won't rule, so she decided to just burn it all. "If I can't have it, no one will!"

    Interesting how Euron broke the fourth wall by looking in the camera and saying he was the man who killed Jaime Lannister. I don't remember that happening before in the series.

    One thing that caught my eye was the wildfire going off all over. A good theory is that was what her insane father had planted when he was going to burn the city to the ground.

    The last scene was like a page from "Schindler's List" :'(

    all the ashes and the violins!

    1 more to go....I hate calling it right earlier :'( but I now think it had to happen.

    where do we go from here, now that all Children have grown up? And how do we spend our lives knowing nobody really cares!

    Danny executes Sansa & Tyrion for treason. Banishes Jon to the north. Banishes Arya to Bravos. Makes Greyworm Hand and lives happily ever after. THE END !!!

    Question is, who will be the one to kill her dragon ? You take out her dragon, and she's just another pretty face. Snow is the only one who can get close enough, but does he have it in him to do that ?

    We haven't yet seen Jon's reaction yet to Sansa's betrayal. Maybe he will execute her, or more likely, Dany will make him pull the trigger. Jon better brush-up on his dragon-speak...might come in handy if he has to choose between his sister and his queen.

    If he has to choose between his Stark family and Dany, he will choose Stark 100% of the time.

    Anything less would be pure terrible writing.

    I think the biggest problem with killing Dany is getting past Drogon to do it. Or if it’s done without him present, dealing with his wrath afterwards.

    Unless Jon somehow “claims” Drogon for himself and even Drogon abandons Dany, again something I would find to be questionable writing.

    Love all the speculation discussion! Any way you shake it, it'll be a good finale I think.

    Doesn't seem like the betrayal of his secret would be enough for the 'noble' Jon Snow to do anything to his sister (although not actually his sister - he still sees them as family). And I doubt he looks at the (Mad) Queen the same way anymore.

    Seems like there won't be anyone, except the dragon, on Dani's side. Maybe Greyworm.

    "The letter is evidence of his treason. He burned the evidence. He’s writing notes to various people looking for people to support Jon.

    The rings are a message to Martha, the ‘kitchen girl’. She’s the one you see coming in the door. She’s a spy and an assassin. Varys assigned her the job of poisoning Dany. But Dany’s not eating anything. The rings may contain the poison.

    When Varys hears the guards coming to take him away he burns the note he was writing and drops the rings into a cup. Martha will know what that means: finish his work: send the notes."

    I honestly think that the writers have already given up. The Starbucks coffee cup in front of Dany and Jamie still having a real hand when comforting Cersei before the ceiling dropped on their heads. None of the prophecies or religious characters make much sense anymore (in the TV show). Dany may have melted down the iron throne while torching king's landing so it may be a moot point. lol.

    Not so sure the iron throne can be melted down

    Fake news, at least according to this article.

    Also, I re-watched episode 4. I'll be damned if I can spot the Starbuck's cup. Must have shown for one frame or something.

    Pretty sure I've read that the cup has already been edited out of online and future versions. Probably same goes for the hand. They don't want these goofs memorialized forever, at least in media they control.

    Just as Jon once instructed Arya to stick 'em with the pointy end, so too did Arya advise Sansa. Maybe Sansa dispatches Dany, or tries to, in an attempt at saving either Jon and/or Arya?
