61 | 1 | 'Dragonstone' | Jeremy Podeswa | David Benioff & D. B. Weiss | July 16, 2017 | 10.11[9] | |
At the Twins, Arya, disguised as Walder Frey, poisons the remaining lords of House Frey. The White Walkers march toward the Wall, where Tollett allows Bran and Meera to enter. At Winterfell, despite Sansa's objection, Jon secures the loyalties of the new heads of Houses Umber and Karstark, whose previous leaders fought alongside Ramsay in the Battle of the Bastards. At the Citadel, Samwell secretly borrows library books. One reveals a large deposit of dragonglass in Dragonstone and he sends word to Jon. Sam later finds Ser Jorah, now heavily infected with greyscale, quarantined in a cell. In the Riverlands, Arya meets some friendly Lannister soldiers who consider her declared intention to kill Cersei as a joke. Thoros shows Sandor Clegane a vision of the Wall and the marching Army of the Dead. The revelation leads him to believe in the Lord of Light. In King's Landing, Jaime tells Cersei that allies are crucially needed. She receives Euron, who proposes marriage in exchange for his Iron Fleet and an opportunity to kill Theon and Yara. Cersei declines, citing trust concerns, so Euron promises to return with a 'gift' to prove his loyalty. Daenerys arrives at Dragonstone, the home of House Targaryen, previously occupied by Stannis Baratheon, with her army and dragons. | |||||||
62 | 2 | 'Stormborn' | Mark Mylod | Bryan Cogman | July 23, 2017 | 9.27[10] | |
Daenerys sends the Dornishmen with Yara's fleet to Sunspear and the Unsullied to Casterly Rock, following Tyrion's advice to lay siege to King's Landing. She challenges Varys' loyalty and threatens to burn him alive if he ever betrays her. Melisandre arrives and encourages Daenerys to invite Jon Snow to Dragonstone. Grey Worm and Missandei consummate their relationship. Cersei summons several lords, wanting their fealty and elevating Randyll Tarly as Warden of the South. Qyburn shows Cersei a prototype ballista capable of killing dragons. Arya is reunited with Hot Pie, who tells her Jon is now King in the North. She resets her course for Winterfell. Jon travels to Dragonstone to request Daenerys' help against the White Walkers, leaving Sansa in charge at Winterfell. Jon warns Littlefinger to keep his distance from Sansa. Samwell applies a forbidden treatment on Jorah's greyscale infection. Euron's fleet attacks Yara's. Obara and Nymeria are killed, while Ellaria, Tyene, and Yara are captured. Theon, experiencing flashbacks as Reek, hesitates to challenge Euron and jumps overboard. | |||||||
63 | 3 | 'The Queen's Justice' | Mark Mylod | David Benioff & D. B. Weiss | July 30, 2017 | 9.25[11] | |
Jon arrives at Dragonstone where Daenerys demands his fealty. He refuses and instead seeks her help fighting the Army of the Dead. Following Tyrion's advice, Daenerys allows Jon to mine the island's dragonglass. Melisandre avoids Jon and departs for Volantis. Bran, with Meera, arrives at Winterfell and reveals his newfound-identity as the Three-Eyed Raven to Sansa. In King's Landing, Euron presents Ellaria and Tyene as a gift for Cersei, who promises him marriage after the war is won. She also awards him co-control of her military, alongside Jaime. Cersei administers the same poison to Tyene that killed Myrcella, forcing Ellaria to watch her daughter's impending death and remain imprisoned with the body. In Oldtown, a healed Jorah leaves to find Daenerys. Ebrose praises Samwell's skill in saving Jorah but makes him copy old texts for his disobedience. Grey Worm and the Unsullied attack Casterly Rock, only to find that Jaime has led the bulk of the Lannister forces in an attack on Highgarden, while Euron's fleet ambushes and destroys the Unsullied's ships. The Lannister forces quickly overwhelm Olenna Tyrell's army. Jaime offers Olenna a quick and painless death by poison. After drinking it, she admits to poisoning Joffrey. | |||||||
64 | 4 | 'The Spoils of War' | Matt Shakman | David Benioff & D. B. Weiss | August 6, 2017 | 10.17[12] | |
Arya returns to Winterfell and is reunited with Sansa and Bran. She later spars with Brienne, impressing her and unnerving Sansa with her exceptional fighting skills. Bran bids Meera an unemotional farewell as she prepares to head home, divulging he is no longer the boy she accompanied through the North. Littlefinger presents Bran with the Valyrian steel dagger his would-be assassin used. Bran later gives it to Arya. Cersei assures the Iron Bank a full repayment of her debt as a wagon train carrying gold from Highgarden travels to King's Landing. In a cave filled with dragonglass, Jon reveals ancient wall paintings to Daenerys depicting the First Men and the Children of the Forest joining forces against the undead. Later, Daenerys learns that the attack on Casterly Rock was a diversion and Lannister forces have captured Highgarden. Ignoring Tyrion's protests, Daenerys rides Drogon as the Dothraki cavalry launches a surprise attack on the Lannister army, decimating it and capturing its remaining forces. Drogon is wounded when Bronn fires a bolt from Qyburn's new scorpion ballista weapon, but he and Daenerys land safely. Jaime's desperate charge on horseback at a vulnerable Daenerys is thwarted by Drogon spewing fire. Bronn tackles Jaime into the lake, saving him. | |||||||
65 | 5 | 'Eastwatch' | Matt Shakman | Dave Hill | August 13, 2017 | 10.72[13] | |
Jaime and Bronn return to King's Landing. Daenerys offers the Lannister army survivors the choice to pledge fealty to her or die. Against Tyrion's advice, she has Drogon burn Randyll and Dickon Tarly, who refused to bend the knee. Jorah arrives at Dragonstone and reunites with Daenerys. Maester Wolkan alerts Jon and the Citadel about the wights approaching Eastwatch. Jon proposes he travel beyond the Wall to capture a wight as proof they exist and to convince Cersei to accept a temporary alliance. Davos smuggles Tyrion inside King's Landing, where he secretly meets with Jaime to propose an armistice. Cersei accepts it and also informs Jaime she is pregnant. Davos rendezvous with Gendry and returns him to Dragonstone. With the Citadel ignoring Wolkan's letter, Samwell steals several restricted books and leaves the Citadel with Gilly and Little Sam. At Winterfell, Littlefinger, knowing Arya is spying on him, lures her into finding the letter that Sansa was forced to write as a hostage in King's Landing. Jon, Jorah, and Gendry, joined by Clegane, Thoros, Beric, and a group of the Free Folk led by Tormund, leave Eastwatch and pass beyond the Wall to capture a wight. | |||||||
66 | 6 | 'Beyond the Wall' | Alan Taylor | David Benioff & D. B. Weiss | August 20, 2017 | 10.24[14] | |
At Winterfell, Littlefinger plots to isolate Sansa. Tensions between Arya and Sansa increase following Arya's discovery of the letter Sansa was forced to write, begging for Robb's fealty to Joffrey. Sansa, in turn, finds Arya's collection of faces she took from Braavos. At Dragonstone, Tyrion counsels Daenerys about the upcoming negotiations with Cersei. Beyond the Wall, Jon and the men hunt for a wight to prove the White Walkers' existence. After capturing one, the group is beset by the White Walker army. Jon sends Gendry to Eastwatch to dispatch a raven to Daenerys requesting help. During the night, an injured Thoros freezes to death. As the wight army is about to overwhelm Jon's group, Daenerys arrives with her dragons and rescues the men. The Night King, leader of the White Walkers, kills Viserion, one of Daenerys' dragons, with an ice spear. Daenerys flies off with the men, but is unable to save Jon. Benjen Stark intervenes and sacrifices himself to save Jon. When Jon and Daenerys are reunited, Jon pledges himself and the North to Daenerys as Queen. The Night King reanimates Viserion, making the dragon a part of his army. | |||||||
67 | 7 | 'The Dragon and the Wolf' | Jeremy Podeswa | David Benioff & D. B. Weiss | August 27, 2017 | 12.07[15] | |
At King's Landing, the wight is presented to the Lannisters and their supporters. Cersei demands Jon's neutrality in the Great War, but he upholds his oath to Daenerys, provoking Cersei to end discussions. Tyrion meets privately with Cersei, apparently gaining her alliance. Cersei later reveals to Jaime that she really intends to use the Golden Company of Braavos to secure her hold on Westeros. Disgusted, Jaime deserts her and rides north. Aboard a ship bound for White Harbor, Jon and Daenerys make love. At Dragonstone, Theon earns his men's respect and leads them to rescue Yara. At Winterfell, Littlefinger sows dissent by exploiting Arya's threatening demeanor toward Sansa, leading to a trial. To his surprise, a united Sansa, Arya, and Bran accuse Littlefinger of murder, conspiracy, and treason, which Bran confirms with his visions. Deserted by the Lords of the Vale, Littlefinger is sentenced to death by Sansa and executed by Arya. Samwell arrives at Winterfell and meets with Bran. They discuss Jon's parentage and through Sam's earlier research and Bran's visions, they extrapolate that Jon is a trueborn Targaryen named Aegon, the legitimate heir to the Iron Throne. His parents — Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark — married in secret. At Eastwatch, the Night King, astride the undead Viserion, blasts a hole through the Wall with blue dragon fire, allowing the Army of the Dead to march through. |
