Game of Thrones: This is how it continues in the next episode
The long night, the great battle, the eternal winter - all over. But who thinks the fronts in "Game of Thrones" are cleared up once and for all, you're wrong. The next enemy, some unresolved storylines and the big showdown are still waiting for the audience. Who does not want to know what happened in the first three episodes of the final season of "Game of Thrones", should now stop reading!
The Night King is defeated, the white-blue eyes of the White Wanderers are finally extinguished, almost all favorite spectators live (probably) - you might think the final season of "Game of Thrones" would have an early happy ending. No way! Three whole episodes are still waiting for us and our blood pressure and you have to see the truth in the green eyes: Cersei Lennister (Lena Headey, 45) is the true terror of Westeros.
All against one?
After Daenerys (Emilia Clarke, 32), Jon (Kit Harington, 32), Sansa (Sophie Turner, 23), Tyrion (Peter Dinklage, 49), Arya (Maisie Williams, 22) and many more survived the battle of Winterfell, Now they can turn again to the earthly problems: An unscrupulous queen in the south who, except for the supposed child in her stomach, a monster bodyguard whose Dr. Hyde and her arrogant admirer Euron Graufreud (Pilou Asbaek, 37) has nothing left to lose. And now more than ever clinging to the throne, their vengeance and their wine glass.
But the rest of Westeros is known to have another plan: to make Daenerys the ruler. Or Jon. Or both. Or at least partially. It's not that clear at the moment, because up to now there have been greater problems in the North than the miserable question of power. In the latest teaser for the fourth episode, it looks like unity at first sight as the Dragon Queen swears the troops into the next fight: "We've won the big war, now we'll win the last war." Does Sansa see the same thing? We remember: even eye to eye with an army of undead, the Stark daughter has not forgotten her claim to the north. But at least as far as Cersei is concerned, she is likely to go with Daenerys d'accord: "We will destroy her with stump and stalk."
But wondering where Khaleesi's self-esteem came from, after all, most of her army went down in the last battle, while Cersei and her men were able to recharge their batteries for two episodes. The queen in teaser looks just as into the sunny Königsmund: smiling, deeply relaxed and sure of victory. Maybe it's the pregnancy hormones, but maybe she's actually in love: In the trailer, Euron, now her only ally, kneels before his queen - probably for a marriage proposal. And if we are not mistaken, she ends up with him on a ship. Where is the journey going?
Also, Arya, after her defloration in the second episode and her new super heroine status, seems to be on the verge of new adventures. In one second of the trailer she kisses a black shadow, which is probably Gendry (Joe Dempsie, 31) - but why this grim setting? Is it a goodbye kiss?
Open storylines
Other questions that will probably be answered in the next episode: What is Bronn doing (Jerome Flynn, 56)? He got a very special order from Cersei in the first episode, killing his former lords and friends Tyrion and Jaime Lennister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, 48) with the favorite crossbow of Cersei's deceased son Joffrey. And what about the former dream and meanwhile incest pair Daenerys and Jon? Everything clarified on the love and power front? And how will the bloodhound (Rory McCann, 50) and his brother, the mountain (Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, 30) come together?
In summary, after three episodes of farewell, death and destruction, the last three episodes of the final season will finally be about power, politics and the settlement of old bills. After the evil in the north is finally defeated, it is now freezing cold in the south.
