******* SPOILER ALERT ******
Episode name: Spoils of the war
Language: English
Genre: Fantasy
This is by far the best of this season.
Jaime supervises the spoils of the war to get back to kings landing. Bronn talks about Castle to him and Jaime promises him a castle after the war is over. The conversation between them shows Bronn is still a cut throat and works for money as long as one pays him and Jaime is repenting for the things he has done for "love". Meanwhile Jaime asks Rickon (Sorry, Dickon) "How does it feel like being a first timer fighting a war?" He says it feels great but Bronn says your father is not here. Dickon says the truth that it is hard to fight against those who hunted and the men he was with, for a quite long time. Two things here - long friendship of Tyrell and Tarly and Dickon is not interested in fighting Tyrell but only following Randyll.
Little finger gives a dagger to Bran and lies about the owner of the dagger. But he doesn't know Bran knows everything. Bran's "Chaos is a ladder" surprises Little finger because those are the exact words came from his mouth while talking to Varys in kings landing. Bran is emotionless when Meera says she is going back to her family. Meera understands that he is no more a bran Stark but a three eyed Raven. Her dialogue "you died in the cave" means the same thing?
Arya reaches her home. Sansa is happy seeing Arya. Her dialogue "Jon's heart will stop after seeing you" indicates how strong the relation of Arya and Jon is. Arya asks Brienne to train her. Brienne takes her lightly but with the first move of Arya, she understands her capability. The fight was well shot. Clearly Arya outclasses Brienne. We can see a little smile on little finger's face. Probably he might be thinking he can use Arya against Sansa?
Jon snow shows the dragon glass in the mines of dragonstone and also makes her understand how the children of forest and first men fight against their common enemy - white walkers. Dany asks him to bend the knee again. Dany is not happy about loosing the war because of tyrion's plans. She suspects Tyrion. She asks Jon "What would you do in the present situation". May be Jon suggests her to attack the bounty of the war rather than kings landing.
Jon seems to have grown fondness of Dany. It is understood from the words of Ser Davos. Missandei reveals she followed Dany because she believes her and Dany is the chosen one by their army.
While Jaime, Dickon and Bronn are having a conversation, Bronn hears there is something coming towards them. Large horde of horses approaching with a typical Dothraki sounds. With the background score of horde approaching, my heart started pounding heavily. Such is the impact of the bg score. And the entrance of the dragon is a visual treat to watch. Jaime didn't expect this to be coming. Bronn asks Jaime to flee to King's landing but Jaime says he wants to stay with his men. Randyll tarly commands his men against Dothraki horde. But Dothraki along with the dragon is no match for tired Lannister army. Dothraki butchers Lannister army. Dragon roasts Lannister army turning them to ashes. Dany destroys the wagons carrying food and gold. Lannister army literally runs out of fear. Bronn escapes near death and fights his way to reach the scorpion to kill the dragon. He hits the dragon but to his dismay, it emerges more fiercely and burns the scorpion. Dany tries to remove the arrow from the Dragon, while Jaime rushes towards Dany to kill her and end the war. Dragon releases fire. Bronn saves him from burning alive. Bronn is really the hero of the war.
To me, this episode scores a perfect 10.
