Game of Thrones Screencap Breakdown: “The Winds of Winter”

Dorne?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO…oh wait. it’s not all bad. There’s Olenna.

And she is not impressed with this idiot Sand Snake people. Of all the moments of fan service we got this season, this was by far my favorite.

“Do you have anything to say? Good. Grownups are talking.”

“Oh good, here comes my cheese.”

FIRE AND BLOOD!

(Was that not cheesy enough? He could swoop in again and do it more dramatically, if you’d like.)

Dany’s shots echo earlier scenes from the episode. Like this one of her drinking wine, like Cersei.

Here she is in a room with the advisor she’s about to fire, like Jon.

This shadow play of their breakup is great, by the way.

Well, that went as well as could be expected.

Dany and Tyrion, echoing Sansa and Jon from earlier.

Tyrion finally earns something on his own, instead of having it handed to him because he’s a Lannister.

You never know how much it means to earn something yourself until you manage it.
