Unsullied and Casterly Rock
Yes. The Unsullied attack it with a large force, while a small force led by Grey Worm sneaks in via Tyrion's secret whore entrance and slays the garrison force that's there.
Greyworm leads the attack on Casterly Rock as per Tyrion's plan. Casterly Rock is taken quite easily, as the Lannister's essentially have abandoned it, rationalising that once Dany's forces take it they will be cut off from the Sea by Euron's forces, and the Lannister forces will cut them off by land - they won't be able to hold the Rock for a significant time. Eventually (and pretty sure this isn't on screen) they abandon CR and Grey Worm rejoins Dany's forces, and will be in the Dragonpit scene
Euron
He tells Jaime that he plans to wed his sister, then quietly asks him exactly what way she enjoys being fucked. Even asks if she likes a cheeky finger up the arse.
Euron wants power. And a Queen. He has a huge Navy, she doesn't. THat's a pretty simple arrangement. He is determined that he'll marry her, and she allows him to believe its a possibility for as long as he's useful. This is Cersei after all.
Eastwatch
When they arrive at Eastwatch Tormund takes them to the cells - he has captured Thoros, Beric and The Hound just South of the Wall heading North and isn't sure what to do with them.
Jon offers to let them come with them after they tell him the Red God wants them to go beyond the wall. Gendry isn't too keen on this though, he hasn't forgiven them for shipping him off with Melisandre.
Golden company
In the last episode Cersei reveals to Jaime she's just bought their services. 20,000 soldiers.
In pretty much the next scene when Cersei and Jaime are alone he asks her about Euron, and she laughs and says Euron hasn't really turned tail - rather he's gone on her orders to use the Iron Fleet to ferry the Gold Company to Westeros - she's just got a brand new line of credit with the Iron Bank, and she's decided to buy an army of mercenaries with it.
She plunders Highgarden to pay the Iron Bank. They're pretty happy at the fast payment, and then Cersei pushes it further.
She tells Tycho that Westoros needs a stable ruler, and that Targaryen's rule is unpredictable both politically and financially. She essentially persuades him to authorise a line of credit for her to buy more warriors, which pays off in the last episode when it turns out she's hired The Gold Company to join her side in the coming conflict.
Jon/Jorah/Gendry
Jon says he's glad that Ned never caught and killed Jorah.
Jorah says he's pretty glad about that too!
they have a quick fun scene about how their fathers were friends. "The bastard of Winterfell and the bastard of King's Landing". Gendry seems to enjoy meeting again someone his father had some connection with.
Naval battle/Ellaria/Yara
We don't see her [Ellaria] again but it's implied she's left to starve to death in the dungeon.
The Sand Snakes are on Yara's ship. Euron's ship SIlence sails alongside and his tongueless sailors board, as does he.
Nymeria and Obara attack him and he personally kills them both using their own weapons - impales one and strangled the other with her whip.
Ellaria and Tyene are taken back to Kings Landing as gifts for Cersei, along with Yara.
We don't see her again after she's left to watch Tyene die, but it's heavily implied she's dead.
Ellaria is made to watch her youngest (I cannnever remember their name. Bad pussy one, yes?) die from a poison kiss delivered by Cersei herself - she wants to make her suffer the way she suffered for Myrcella.
Yara is taken prisoner and treated badly, but we don't see her die this season, so there's still hope Theon may rescue her.
Dragonpit
He vocally pledges to her in the Dragonpit. This catches everyone off guard, including Dany, who wasn't expecting him to do that. (Also no-one thinks it was wise, as this really winds up Cersei)
Pod and Brienne arrive at the castle gates on horseback.
Brienne leaves Winterfell to travel to Kings Landing to represent Sansa at the Dragonpit meeting. (this happens after Sansa gets a Raven from Kings Landing asking her to join the meeting requested by Dany and Jon)
Jon et al arrive by sea, and Dany shows up after everyone else arrives on Drogon either Rhaegal flying around.
Only Cersei notices that she only has 2 dragons in tow, and in the scene after with Jamie she points out that Dany brought 2 dragons to impress Cersei with her power, but everyone has heard she has 3. She surmises from this that the third must be injured or dead, and that means the dragons aren't invincible after all.
No, which is a bit of an oversight. In the Dragonpit though Brienne and The Hound meet again, and Arya is mentioned then. The Hound asks her if she shouldn't be taking care of Arya, and Brienne replies that 'The only person needing protecting is the one who gets in her (Arya's) way' and this makes The Hound smile, and say that he doesn't plan to be the one to do that.
Melisandre
She's only at Dragonstone, and then she leaves just before Jon arrives.
Mellisandre suggests she will leave Westoros for a while. Varys tells her that she might not be safe if she ever returns.
It is Varys Melisandre is talking to when she says at least she brought ice and fire together
Wight Hunt
[how dead Viserion is retrieved from the water]Big heavy chains. Literally, that's pretty much what the script says.
Jon falls when trying to climb onto Drogon and appears to sink under the lake, so it looks like he's a goner.
Polar Bear is before wight army attack. Thoros dies overnight and is just left behind.
Dany only goes North out of concern for Jon (and Jorah obv). After the bear attack Jon gets Gendry to run back to Eastwatch and send a Raven to Dany to let her know what's happened. After she receives it she leaves impulsively to go find them. Tyrion thinks this is a bad idea, but she doesn't listenScript also mentions a WILDLING TRACKER at the front of the party so there's your other person. And he gets killed by the bear (you need a red shirt, otherwise how will we know there's a threat, right?)”
Brienne and Jaime
It'll be a fun scene. She tries to persuade him that he has to bring the army north to support Jon, and he says he admires her loyalty to the Starks. To which Brienne says "FUCK LOYALTY!" - she's just flat out terrified by the Wight demo, and she sees the threat for what it is - a matter of pure survival, and it won't matter what house you stand for. It's going to be a good character moment for her.
Cersei and Jaime
He walks out on her, while she is threatening to have The Mountain kill him. Jaime calls her bluff however, and the Mountain stands aside and lets him leave her chambers. Next we see him he's on his horse heading north. That's all we see of him.
Jaime rides alone north.
The timeline [when Jaime and Cerse have sex] is a bit fuzzy as usual on the show. Needless to say they don't specify which time Jaime did the business, but it's implied that their relationship has been sexual ever since he returned from Dorne.
Gendry and Davos
Gendry goes to Dragonstone because Davos seeks him out and brings him there during Tyrion's secret visit to meet Jaime.
Davos wants to give Gendry a purpose in life, rather than being someone's mistake.
There's no mention of Storm's End.
There's also no mention of Edmure in my scripts, but I wouldn't rule out that a scene was added later when they remembered he was still imprisoned there. Makes sense
Winterfell
Jon and Sansa wil have a few scenes together discussing how the North should be ruled at the start of the season. They disagree - Sansa is definitely the harder of the two.
Jon leaves at the end of Episode 2, leaving her in charge of Winterfell.
The reunions on paper don't read particularly emotional, but add some decent acting and some great GoT music and I reckon they might draw a tear or two out.
Not really. Bran isn't interested in ruling [Lord of Winterfell] at all. Or talking to anyone much.
The season for the girls ends with Sansa sentencing LF to death and Arya slicing his throat, then the two of them talking about missing Ned and their mother.
Hotpie
And it's mentioned by Hot Pie in episode 2 that he heard she blew up the Great Sept, so it's pretty common knowledge across Westeros
He gets a scene in Episode 2, yes, on Arya's journey back to Winterfell.(hotpie) the same place Hot Pie has worked for a while now. The tavern.
Theon
The fight he has on the beach with the Iron Born is him trying to persuade them to join him to rescue Yara, but they aren't interested until he keeps getting back up after they knock him down, and eventually bests the dude (who makes the mistake of trying to put Theon down by kicking him in the balls, which is where he gains the upper hand).
Dany and Jon
It's Jon. He goes to her cabin while they're sailing north after the Dragonpit meeting.
Note: there's NO dialogue in this sequence as it's cross cut with Bran and Sam discussing Jon's past
He's recovering from the Wight attack and being submerged in an icy lake. She's come in to where he is convalescing [refers to the scene where Jon is naked and says he would bend the knee but he is naked. Not the sex scene.]
In episode 4 just before she leaves for the ambush he takes her down to the caves below Dragonstone where they are mining Dragonglass.
He shows her some cave paintings on the walls that look like the spiral things we've seen earlier in the series - they are the work of the Children of the Forest a very long time ago, from long before there were Targaryens or Starks or Lannisters.
Dany says maybe they are from before there were even men, but Jon shows her a picture that has 5 small figures with 3 larger ones - the Children of the Forest and the First Men fighting a common enemy - the White Walkers - there will be another painting of them too, with the Night King.
Jon says that this shows that despite the people of Westeros differences, this shows that there has always been a need for them to bad together against this enemy.
Dany says she believes him, and that she will help him. IF he bends the knee.
It's directly after this that she gets the news that while they may have taken Casterly Rock, it hasn't exactly been a victory and their troops are now cut off.
Lyanna and Rhaegar's wedding
The only people speaking in the vision are Lyanna and Rhaegar reciting their vows and the High Septon conducting the ceremony. It's in a forest clearing, and the description says it should look similar to Robb and Talisa's wedding. Nothing happens in the short scene bar us seeing them reciting their vows and it being clear they are very much in love.
When he has this vision he's in his bedroom, and Samwell is with him
Dragonstone
During Dany's absence Jon and Davos have a conversation with Missandei and Theon arrives back at Dragonstone. This is the first time Jon and Theon have seen each other since he left for the Wall. Jon looks like he's going to beat the shit out of Theon, but he tells him the only reason he doesn't is because of what he did for Sansa
In the script it's definitely Drogon [who Jon pets]. Maybe they've changed it, but the Dragon he's petting is the one Dany is riding, and she only rides Drogon, right?
Sam and Jorah
Maester Ebrose tells Sam not to waste time trying to cure it, and mentions that an old Maester had done some reading into it but forbids Sam to take it further.
Sam steals a key for the restricted library and find the book detailing how to cut off the scales and treat it with a special ointment (that Sam prepares himself from the instructions)
We see him start the operation on Jorah, and it's clearly incredibly painful and takes all night. We don't get much more of a description of the process than that though. It's a bit underwhelming for what everyone seems to think is an irreversible condition.
Missandei and Greyworm
[this passage is in my own words not lads]
Missandei comes to see Greyworm in episode 2 just before he leaves for Casterly Rock to say goodbye. They have a conversation about how Greyworm now has one fear and that is not seeing Missandei again. Greyworm talks about how they do not belong in Westeros after Dany takes the throne and asks Missandei if she would like to see Naath again. She says her people are peaceful and cannot protect themselves. Greyworm responds by saying the Unsullied are not peaceful and can protect Missandei’s people.
They end up kissing and Missandei removes her clothes. She removes Greyworms top but when she tries to remove his lower clothing he grabs her on the wrist gently to stop her. She says she wants to see all of him. He objects but then nods and she removes his clothes. They go to the bed where Greyworm kisses her face, neck and breasts. He moves downwards but the camera remains focused on Missandei’s face as she receives pleasure.
In episode 4 Missandei and Dany are having a female bonding session and Dany tells missandei not to worry Greyworm will return to her. Dany asks what happened between them and Missandei answers “many things”. Dany realises they have had sex and asks “the pillar?” and Missandei answers “yes”.
Misc. Tormund/Beric/Hound/Gendry
We won’t see Beric and Gendry after that episode (6), or at least they aren’t mentioned.
The script says at the end of that episode The Hound heads south with the captive Wight in a box, and Beric follows him. Beric isn’t in Episode 7 though.
Tormund will reappear in the very last scene of Ep 7 - he’s manning the Wall when the army of the dead attack and Viserion burns it. We don’t see him die or anything, just running for safety once the dragon attacks.
Ambush Scene
[asked whether Drogon gets hit with the ballista at the ambush scene]
He does. It puts him down, and while Dany is on the ground with him that's when Jaime makes a mad dash of an attack to try and kill her - Drogon turns at the last minute and blasts flame at him, and Bronn pushes Jaime off his horse (which is toast) and into the river beside him, where they see the flames burst over the surface. That's the end of Episode 4.
Last 2 Months Posts from Lads
By the way Yara and Ellaria ALMOST get it on, but Euron attacks just as Yara is running her hand up Ellaria's thigh…
They're heading to Dorne - they don't expect a battle at all.
We won't actually see that scene - we just see Sansa going to talk to Bran about something.
I guess it's so there's a reveal for the audience at the same time as Littlefinger. Sansa will list off his crimes - Neds betrayal, attempt on Bran's life, blah blah - basically everything shady he's done, and then sentence him.
The plan is to sail to White Harbor, then meet the Dothraki on the Kingsroad then head for Winterfell.
My mistake. Read it again there, and the directions are pretty explicit.
It's the Unsullied who sail direct for Eastwatch, bearing in mind at this point in the narrative the Wall hasn't been breached.
He says "if I don't return, at least you won't have to deal with the King in the North any more"
Dany says "I've gotten used to him" (wouldn't be surprised if this line is change to 'become' used to him, 'gotten' isn't very common in non-American English usage)
That happens in Episode 1, and Sansa isn't in a good mood at this point after having an argument with Jon over who the more pressing enemy is - he thinks the Night King obviously, but she wants him to not forget about Cersei. Sansa thinks Jon is being too dismissive of her.
She does actually take a book off Little Sam called 'Legends of the Long Night' and THAT is the book she has there.
While she reads that Sam is reading about Dragonstone, and he realises that it is full of Dragonglass, and remembers that Stannis told him as much before, but he'd paid it no mind.
The only 2 things she reads out loud from her book are that 'the cold reached all the way to the Rhoyne River' (and she asks where that is) and then she reads the following passage out loud:
"The white cold rose up, and the Walkers rose with it. And the sun hid its face for a lifetime, ashamed at something none could discover'.
Then she says that she knows why the sun hid its face, and tells Sam that when Craster took one of his sons away, he was drunk, and said 'Come on, Time to meet your brothers'. She also tells him that the older wives called the Walkers 'Craster's Sons'.
This thought horrifies her, and she tells him that when the Walker attacked them she wondered was it one of her brothers.
She offers advice that he should be summoned, yes.- Melisandre about summoning Jon
Jorah returns to Dany a few minutes into Episode 5, and the first thing he sees is her and Jon standing very close together and talking - I think right away he's aware that she has somewhat of a close relationship with Jon.
Then he heads off with Jon at the end of the episode.
The wildlings at Eastwatch spot them approaching from the south and take them prisoner when they won't state their business.
The script just about mentions some wildlings and brothers. But none get lines. They mostly just die
From the script some 'non-descript' brotherhood go through the passage with the rest of the party (the named cast and some wildlings).
Wight-fodder, obviously.
I've checked the script now - this is where she overhears what has been happening in Kings Landing - the Sept etc. She is eavesdropping on the men behind her - that's her listening face apparently.
Then she meets Hot Pie there, who gives her some cooking tips and tells her she's pretty, and who also tells her the Boltons no longer have Winterfell and Jon is in charge
This is what makes her mind up for her about where she's headed, and she turns north on the Kings Road at the end of this sequence.
I would be 95% sure this is the first we see of the BWOB in Episode 1. They are riding north, and this is just before they find the farmer's cottage where The Hound and Arya stayed.
They will find the farmer and his daughter dead, and the Hound will dig a grave for them, which surprises his companions.
They BWOB don't go to Winterfell. They head straight for the wall.
Yup, it's on wheels on a covered wagon. They will unveil it when she attacks, but we will see it in an earlier episode when Qyburn demonstrates it to Cersei by firing a bolt through one of the Dragon skulls in the Red Keep basement.
As I said, I think it's a scene where she's watching Arya spar with Brienne. She's never seen her sister fight before and is taken aback by it.
It could be one of a few other scenes though. There's a couple where LF and Sansa are alone in the courtyard.
LF gives the dagger to Bran, who then gives it to Arya.
and he finds out pretty much the same scene she does, a few minutes after Qyburn has examined her.
Qyburn is Hand. And that's it. Cersei doesn't think she needs a Small Council.
Nope, he just talks about how he brought Neds bones back to Winterfell, how much he respected Ned, loved Catelyn - it's a manipulation play, and it doesn't work.
Pretty sure I mentioned that Brienne and Tormund have an interaction - this is him telling her about Sheila, his bear 'friend' and wondering if she's still out there, somewhere.
It takes a second or two for Brienne to realise exactly what he's telling her. A high comedy moment.
Nah, I never mentioned it. It's a 2 page scene, and not much happens In it bar a slimy LF attempt to worm his way into Jon's trust, and Jon slamming him against a wall when he says he loves Sansa.This is exactly what this scene is. He'll have a small, aggressive interaction with LF down here, then in the next scene say goodbye to Ghost and be on his way.He's looking at Ned's statue.He has a scene with Littlefinger in the crypt - Jon goes down there to be with a statue of Ned before he leaves for Dragonstone, and LF shows up and starts trying to worm his way into Jon's confidence. Jon forces him up against a wall a threatens him once LF starts talking about how much he loves Sansa.
Not on purpose at all, he just gets left behind due to the overwhelming size of the Wight forces.
Halfway through the first episode Arya meets some Lannister soldiers on the Kingsroad. As the soldiers enter the scene, one of them (Ed) is singing a song for the others.
The lyrics are as follows:
He rode through the streets of the city, Down from his hill on high, O'er the wynds and the steps and the cobbles He rode to a woman's sigh
For she was his secret treasure She was his shame and his bliss And a chain and a keep are nothing Compared to a woman's kiss.
(and the rest of the soldiers join him for the chorus)
For hands of gold are always cold but a woman's hands are warm
So they meet Arya, and we're supposed to think she will kill them, but they invite her to join them for supper, and she shares a meal with them. They talk about recent events, and how they are on their way to help fortify the Twins, and she realises that they have no love for their Lannister masters, and are just a bunch of fishermen who would rather be back at their work. So she sits and enjoys having some pleasant company for the evening.
He has one scene with one of the little girls. He asks her about Qyburn, and she says he gives them sweets and looks after them. "he made xxxxx's father disappear" (I'm ever wary of leak-traps)
Varys says that is good and:
"Do you know what's better than having a good friend?
Two good friends"
She says Tommen betrayed her. She doesn't appear too broken up about his death. Nope. They don't even discuss the Sept. Jaime mentions Tommen, but she says Tommen betrayed her and leaves it at that.
Not only is there a sex-scene, but in he next Cersei/Jaime scene following it a maid goes to enter the room while they are still in bed.
Cersei tells her to enter, and Jamie is all like "wtf, everyone will know", but Cersei tells him she literally doesn't care and who is going to stop her doing whatever she wants at this point.
At the end of Episode 6 she will check on him after the Wight Hunt nearly kills him, and she is also seeking comfort after losing Viserion. They have an intimate moment, but it's not physical so much as emotional - they are vulnerable around each other.
Nothing physical will happen until the end of Ep 7 when Jon goes a knocking on her cabin door… #IfThisBoatsARocking
Gilly has been reading a diary of sorts of the Late High Septon Maynard, and she has been reading portions out to a very uninterested Sam - this is where she says Maynard
"issued an annulment for a Prince… 'Ragger' and remarried him to someone else in a secret ceremony in Dorne"
Obviously she can't read too well yet, hence 'Ragger'. Sam Isn't really paying too much attention, but he does recall this later in the season when talking to Bran.
And yes, the revisited Tower of Joy scene where we hear what Lyanna says will be part of the same scene where Sam and Bran together piece together Jon's heritage.
Just recites his marriage vows along with Lyanna. They get married in front of High Septon Maynard
Mainly because on the page he's not THAT interesting. He's just Maester Ebrose, ordering Sam about and telling him off.
It doesn't say 'Jim Broadbent's Character' on the script, and to be honest I was a bit surprised when I heard they'd cast him as it doesn't seem a big enough role for Broadbent, although maybe that's why he did it - it's probably only a week or so filming, so the commitment is minimal.
Anyway, that's why I didn't mention it much - Sam's the main character at Oldtown, not the Maesters there.
A small garrison force is left behind, but most of the troops are taken to Highgarden. It puzzles the Unsullied that the Rock is so easily taken.
