Game of Thrones: Episode 505, “Kill the Boy” GIF Recap

Just like Ser Jorah hopes to soon be back in the loving arms of his Khaleesi, we are back with your weekly Game of Thrones GIF recap…a GIFcap, if you will. Episode 505, “Kill the Boy,” was a fantastic mid-season episode that served as a springboard for Daenerys, Sansa, Stannis, and Jon’s story arcs. So lets don our floaties, hold our noses, and jump right in to the murky waters of the Smoking Sea-river-thing, and take a look at this week’s best GIFs.

Dany said goodbye to her last connection to Westeros, who died after deciding to walk around Meereen without armor. RIP Ser Barristan Selmy, the Bold.

Dany quickly made the transition from sad panda-girl to Mad Queen by taking a bunch of Meereenese noblemen to the dragon pits and mercilessly antagonizing them.

I think it’s safe to say the Mother of Dragons is back, and I for one approve.

I love that she goes into zero f*#ks given mode here. Just onnnnne mooooore step.

I won’t lie, if I were in the place of the Great Masters, I would have peed a little…okay a lot.

You think this guy was thinking, “No way she lets her dragons eat me, right?”

This is what at least one of the seven hells looks like, I’m sure.

Little known fact: Dragons prefer their meat charred, with just the smallest hint of pink in the middle. It’s why they can’t go out to eat, chefs never get it right. FLAME ON!

Hizzy zo Foshizzy seems to be enjoying the show a little too much. I think Dany should burn more dudes, look at how it improves the lighting.

Daenerys raised her children right, because sharing really is caring. Also, all bow before your new goddess, Daenerys of House Targaryen, Mother of Dragons, and Cooker of Dudes.

HEY YOU TOOK THE BIGGER PIECE I’M TELLING MOM…MOOOOOOMMMMMMM!

At the Wall, Jon and Maester Aemon had a moment. Just sitting down for a nice chat. “They don’t like me, Maester Aemon, and I’ve been in my Lord Commander’s office, journaling about my feelings.”

“Kill the boy, Jon Snow, and let the man be born…and stop being so friggen emo all the time, your’e the Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch for f@#ks sake!”

Jon took Maester Aemon’s advice and taunted the biggest ginger this side of The Wall.

But then he grew a set and decided to be Lord Snow, Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch, and Breaker of Chains. See? YOU AIN’T THE ONLY ONE BREAKING CHAINS, DANY!

Then Jon decided to tell the brothers of the Night’s Watch that he was in fact a wildling lover and that none of their opinions mattered. I swear to all seven gods, if [spoiler]Edd has anything to do with For the Watch[/spoiler], I will wear ashes upon my forehead anda  sackcloth for clothes until next season.

All hail Stannis, the one true King of Westeros, and 8th grade substitute English/grammar teacher in his spare time.

#Foreshadowing

This is actually a really cool shot of Winterfell from afar.

Just go light a candle in that super tall and broken down tower, Sansa. I’m sure this is practicality at it’s finest.

Dinner with the Boltons was fun.

Ramsay totally has the best manners ever.

At the Wall, Queen Selyse is still a raging asshole.

Back in Meereen, Grey Worm and Missandei had a moment.

And Dany decided to get engaged. Mazel tov!

Our final GIFs come courtesy of Jorah and Tyrion, aboard the SS No Wine. Drogon decided to leave quite the impression on both men.

Then the stone men decided to crash the party…AND WE WERE HAVING SUCH A GREAT MOMENT!

Tyrion almost drowned…

…and Jorah got greyscale. ~fin

That’s it for this week, folks! Check back next week as we bring another fun and exciting Game of Thrones GIF recap!
