Is this a serious post?
I can't figure out how I feel about this episode. First half was great - the different convos with all the different characters, we need more of that. When they got attacked by the bear it was thrilling and I thought someone important might actually die, butnah.
I actually don't think the timejumps are that egregious. The thing that should have taken the most time was Gendry running back to the wall. After that, I think a raven could reasonably fly to Dragonstone in... less than a day? And then Dany flying back north could take a few hours.
I don't understand why the Night King didn't just freeze the ice himself since that's probably a thing he can do, then have his army attack.
About the dragon melting the wall, what if he breaths ice, not fire?
Agree that Benjen coming back is pretty stupid. Why do D&D love to make it look like major characters are gonna die when we all know they're not?
As far as the Winterfell stuff... pretty dumb. I was hoping that Arya would be able to see through Littlefinger's manipulations, because that would actually be interesting. Of course they didn't go that route.
Did Arya give the dagger to Sansa just to say, "I don't even need this if I wanna kill you" sorta thing?
