Major spoilers for Game of Thrones, Season 7, episode 5, “Eastwatch.”
Well that was a tense-as-hell 66 minutes of “Game of Thrones.” Kicking off with the unfortunate (and surprising) execution of the remaining non-Night’s Watch Tarlys, we saw Daenerys flirting with both despotism and (seriously) Jon Snow, the possibility of a temporary peace between the remaining warring factions of the seven kingdoms, the return of (SPOILER) Gendry, and so much more.
Of biggest concern is Jon Snow assembling the Magnificent Seven of Westeros to fight, and capture, a white walker.
The Hound, Jon, Jorah, and Tormund have all linked up to go fuck shit up. This shit is like Suicide Squad except it's gonna actually be good

But don’t forget the meeting of Jon and Gendry, AKA the possibility of Bastard Best Friends.
This episode in a nutshell
"I saw you once."
"I knew your father."
"Your father sucked."
"He's dead now."
"Let's be friends."#gameofthrones— Jason Pinter (@jasonpinter) August 14, 2017

Gendry isn’t a punk anymore. He’s gonna be a hammer boy, like his dad. (Fans of “Sid and Nancy” will get that joke.)
