Where do you get that he had 100k?  I don't think it was that much.

I thought that's the number Jonny kept repeating before the battle.

100k attacked the wall against 2k~ night watchmen (unless the show changed things). then you've got the hardhome bunch, who I think were completely separate from the wall-attacking wildling group

Lucky for Daeny the Khals like to pour barrels of napalm on the floor of their big tent when they meet.
I'm presuming it was coated with some type of fuel beforehand, hence the involvement of the youngest former Khaleesi.

That's an interesting point that I hadn't considered.  it takes care of two plot holes at once.

Well, that was certainly an epic ending.

Also, let the Tormund-Brienne shipping commence. :perv:

Theon got home easily. Wonder how.

And wow Robin has grown! Wonder why he likes Littlefinger so much. Will be good to see the Vale finally do something.
Wonder what Littlefingers plan is here.

Good idea. It did strike me that it went up a bit easily.

Still seemed a bit convenient. So you can kill the leaders but as long as you have daemonic fire immunity all good,  everyone will worship you.
Wonder how the books will solve that one.

Didn't she have a standing in the fire scene in the books?

Find an excuse to get rid of Bolton.  Either marry Sansa or have her marry Robert and rule in the shadow over all the North.

well, it's sort of how it happenned in the first season.  She emerged from the fire and everyone left worshipped her.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

I haven't watched the episode yet - is Ser Loras fine?  :ph34r:

:D

she must have some unknown ability to control fire. same thing happened at the pyre, S1. fire swept over it way too quickly. at least there was fuel there

This is the kind of thing that is just annoying, because you could make it "reasonable" with a 30 second clip showing (either after as a flashback, or before but make it ambiguous) Jorah and PrettyBoy prepping the location...hell, you could even make it interesting by having them trying to refuse her insane request to make the place flammable, because they don't believe she will be safe...

I thought of that too, and joked with my friend about gasoline. But the simple solution is that the yurt is highly flammable being made of straw and such.

Yes, it is doing the same again, except in the first one.
1: They were already semi-loyal to her, the last rabble left from Drogo, wavering on whether to stick with her but not set against her.
2: She hadn't killed their leadership and burned down their most holy building as part of it. Sure, they don't know she caused the fire, but they should still not be happy about it.
3: She had dragons. More of an impressive factor than the fire really.

Not really. Controlling the dragons would be.
