I'm not sure she does. Dany will have her entire army and two dragons there. They are outmatched and are willing to leave. I think she lets them.

Questions w/out SPOILERS

1) Does Jon find out that he's a Targ? I can see this being revealed on a cliffhanger, but I doubt he learns while down south with Dany et al.
2) Does Littlefinger get cut? I hope so. I really don't want LF surviving this season. Some people have been speculating that Arya was impersonating LF in the scenes last week, but that seems implausible to me. Mostly because I doubt Baelish is killed off-screen.
3) Do team Targ leave King's Landing without any issues? No chance. Something happens and we get Cleganebowl, I think.
4) Does Cersei give two shits about the whit? Probably not.

80 minutes, y'all..

I just don't know where the drama would come from then. Even though I don't think this is likely, my mind figured something like:

Cersei sees an opportunity to cause confusion in the North by declaring Jon Snow as a deserter of the Night's Watch. Jon says no and demands trial by combat, Cersei sends out the Mountain and the Hound is Jon's champion. The fight goes poorly and both Cleganes die but Cersei freaks out and is willing to declare a truce, but send no help north.

Yeeeeaaahhh.... I think that would be cool and all.... but not a chance in hell. Trying to force a Cleganbowl at this point will come off poorly. As I mentioned before as well. Dany will literally be standing there with a dragon in front of Cersei while an army twice the size of hers stand beyond her walls. All the while, completely willing to leave after the conversation. I don't see a double cross happening here. But heh... if any show would, maybe it's this one.

 

[Blaise]

1) Does Jon find out that he's a Targ? I think he finds out at the very end of the epsidoe
2) Does Littlefinger get cut? Yes. Arya has been playing him and kills him and then leaves to go to Kings Landing to continue her list
3) Do team Targ leave King's Landing without any issues?Oh, Stuff is going to go down
4) Does Cersei give two shits about the whit?
No and it will drive a huge wedge between her and the King Slayer... He also finds out she is lying about being pregnant

I think Cersei acknowledges that Tirion didn't kill Joff, but then demands justice for Tirion for killing Tywin before she'll help... trial by combat = Cleganes, and Beric does the fire sword trick for the Hound (with him finally getting over his fears) in order to beat Gregor.

Cersei agrees to help but then plots to sabotage everyone and Jaime is like "WTF!?!" and that's when he kills her.

That's my prediction for the episode, though Cersei betrayal may not come until next season I think it has to happen at some point.

I'm also guessing Sam shows up and finds out he's basically lord of the whole Reach now, and Gendry gets acknowledged put in charge of the Stormlands/Storm's End. Season ends with everyone united against army of the dead. I don't think Littlefinger gets cut in this episode, I think he makes it to next season.

I don't think there is a reveal about Jon's parentage, I think that happens next season. I do think Jon and Dany hook up.

Don' Sam's vows to the Night's Watch essentially prevent him from being Lord of the Reach?

Also, anybody else think the Euron ends up going rogue and being left as a villain/plot for next season?

 

[woolybug25]

I think you guys are gonna be very disappointed when there isn't a Cleganbowl.

I'm not sure those vows mean much in today's Westoros.

 

[zelezo vlk]

I'm not jonesing for a Cleganebowl. But if the episode is just 79 minutes of "well here's what's gonna happen with our truce" and then Jon and Dany giving themselves over to their Targaryen passions, then I'll be pissed. Cause that sounds boring as hell. There's gonna be some sort of drama, I just don't know what

 

[Blaise]

Is it known that the Hound and company is going to King's landing?.. thought they were dropped off at the wall

 

[IrishLion]

1) Does Jon find out that he's a Targ?

I don't think so. The only people who know are in the North. If he were to make it back to Winterfell before the episode is over, then he might learn that he's the rightful heir to the throne as a "gasp" moment right before the credits roll, but I don't think it happens.

The Northern plot right now revolves around Arya/Sansa/Littlefinger; I don't think they would have Jon be a central player in the King's Landing stuff, and then ALSO inject him into the current Northern plot at the very end. His absence is what has set these things off, so it will need to be resolved in his absence, IMO.

2) Does Littlefinger get cut?

Littlefinger is gonna bite the dust. Sansa/Arya will be revealed to have been playing him the whole time, and it will turn out that they were just baiting into a crime or something, and the Northern Lords will catch him red-handed (finally).

3) Do team Targ leave King's Landing without any issues?

I bet they do.

We've heard like 37 times during the season that Dany could simply burn the city and then win the battle with her superior numbers if that's how she wanted to do it. Jaime knows this, and even Cersei will realize that any funny business will likely result in the sacking of her city, and a too-soon loss of her power.

4) Does Cersei give two shits about the whit?

Nah. She's gonna see the wight and then say "it's just dragon magic" or some such bullshit, and ignore the issue. She's worried about nothing but her throne.

hopefully besides the big "sit down" we get:
more night king
can see the ice dragon "capabilities"
Bran starts to get really involved (R+L??, NK info)
a more detailed TOJ timeframe flashback which includes Rhaeger

here's who I think does not make it to next season:

Cersei
Littlefinger
Bronn
Beric
Theon
Davos

If all those people die in the finale, that means some serious shit went down at the meeting haha

[BleedBlueGold]

People really think Cersei dies this week? Not me. I expect her to be around well into the final season.

Hound couldn't beat Brienne, why would you all want to see him get destroyed by the Mountain?

 

[IrishLax]

I could totally see him like misguidedly trying to team up with the White Walkers... it'd make more sense in the books, but it's still sorta plausible in the show.

 

[IrishLion]

Hound couldn't beat Brienne, why would you all want to see him get destroyed by the Mountain?

He didn't have the Lord of Light in his corner yet.

Now he is fortified by the power of the flame.

 

[ND NYC]

haha im probably wrong here, but I just think Weiss and Benoiff are racing to get this entire thing done (unlike GRRM!)...6 episodes next season correct? not much screen time left--getting close to a time to kill.

Each episode is at least 80 mins long next season, so they're still getting the same amount of content out there... just in a more movie-esque way.

I guess the final plot resolutions will be all be cinematic in their presentation, including the final episode, where Jon and Dany get married, and there are four false fade-to-black moments, and Jon tells his loyal Fellowship of the Hound, Tormund and Gendry that they kneel to no one, and makes them each a Warden of the kingdom.

 

[Blaise]

Dany isn't making it out of the series alive

 

[GATTACA!]

I think Cersei is going to hold everyone hostage with wildfire. Tell them if they try to do anything she will burn Kingslanding to the ground. Jaime chokes her with his golden hand. Kingslayer 2.0. I think he probably fails though and we get Dany in the Red Keep with ash raining down around her like we saw I. The one vision.

 

[Henges24]

Could you imagine the uproar? There'd literally probably be feminist protests in the streets.

 

[zelezo vlk]

Well we better stock up now because I think Dany dying is a pretty safe bet

 

[dublinirish]

kill of sansa arya gilly and cersei in one go and then let the men settle the real business of war.

I don't think there will be a nights watch by the end. No more wildlings to keep out and the others will be dead.

I can't imagine Euron mattering once the stakes get to a point when it's everyone vs the others.

 

[dublinirish]

I don't think there will he a nights watch b the end. No more wildlings to keep out and the others will be dead.

I can't imagine Euron mastering once the stakes get to a post when it's everyone vs the others.

nobody needs ships anymore (unless a golden company story arch comes into play) though

I could definitely see something like this happening. Cersei holds them all hostage or threatens them in some way, Jamie kills her, The Mountain jumps in, then The Hound jumps in. Then maybe Beric and Cersei's Hand/Maester go at it.
