And it's a serious one. It's apparent to me that Danaerys is rapidly becoming the villain. With Martin's penchant for historical parallels… Last week we had her eliminate the Brownshirts in a Night of the Long Knives. Or Fires, if you prefer. This week, she gave a stirring Nuremberg rally speech to the Dothraki. She shrieked in a voice eerily reminiscent of the voice that Rush calls "The voice of everybody's First Wife." I think Danaerys Stormborn, Mother of Dragons etc etc etc has had a Heel Turn. She had her dragons burn Pyat Pree. Good. Filthy old wizard. Then she burned Kraznys, purely to welch on a debt. I still cheered her. Crucified 150+ Wise Masters. Many of whom were innocent. Sons of the Harpy? Deserved it. But her penchant for destruction and random massacres is getting out of hand. She roasted the Dothraki to fulfill her Destiny. Hmmm. Didn't the unloved Stannis do the same? Does she get a pass because she looks hot naked standing in the flames? So…. Here is my Theory. And it is mine. Jon Snow is the Prince who blah blah blah. He will defeat the Others with the aid of the two swords into which Ice was melted. He himself will reforge it back into one … just because George will find a new Prophecy… and plunge it into the breast of Nissa Nissa, aka Aunt Dany, with whom he had a few laughs Targaryean style. That will be George's "bittersweet ending". And Frodo style, his fatal knife wounds will bother him when the weather turns bad. So he moves to Dorne and away from that damn cold Wall, which by the way fell down due to the Watch being unfaithful to their vows by killing him. |

I just watched the last episode again. I'm sorry, buy Danerys sounds more and more like She Who Must Not Be Named. So, she is a Heel. |

She is definitely not "a good guy" even by GoT standards. Never liked her… |

Arent's the Targarians all mad?. Amicalement Armand |

Never liked her. Personally I'm cheering for Sansa to be reunited with Tyrion, realise that he's a pretty decent chap and they can rule Westeros and she can have lemon cake |

I personally AM rooting for Daenerys and her Dragons. I am also rooting for Tyrion, the imp is great! I am getting the barbecue ready for everyone she is going to roast. The chicks from Dorne are probably gonna attack the iron throne because there are too many guys they really hate in the vicinity. |

Nah, it's all going to have a bad ending that everyone will hate because D&D will think that a great twist ending is what will be needed. LIke John is killed by Dany, Tyrion kills her, Brienne kills Tyrion, Sansa is killed by Aria by mistake and Little Finger wins all. Or It'll be something like less flashy like Dany and John Snow getting married because they are related, the dragons frying the white walkers, and Sansa dying at Danys hands and everything basically goes back to where we started with the Targys, because George likes cycles. |

Dany is also falling in with the Burn Baby Burn religion of R'Holler. And Dany's speech to the Dothraki is all about destroying Westeros. My guess is that Tyrion and Varys realize, just a little too late, that when the Gods tossed Dany's coin in the air it came up "crazy". They die. Dany lays waste to Westeros and runs into Jon and Sansa who are fighting desperately against the WW. Dany has the Sir Alec Guiness moment from "Bridge on the River Kwai, "What have I done?" right before someone, possibly Jon (maybe Daario, realizing just how nuts she is, and for a mercenary he actually seems to have a conscience) plunges a dagger into her back. Bran manages to stop the WW but Westeros as a Kingdom is destroyed. Tens of thousands lie dead. Sansa and Bran are the last two standing but there is no Iron Throne left to take, nor do they wish to. "Gone are the Days of the Knights Arthur Roundtable and fights Of the Peace of King Arthur Peace ever after Gone are the Days of the Knights". |

Does she get a pass because she looks hot naked standing in the flames? Pun intended? |
Patrick Sexton | 01 Jun 2016 8:55 a.m. PST |
Hell, she just might be my favorite character.And aside from the last remnants of the Starks (and Tyrion) are there any folk in power that you would consider even remotely 'good guys'? |

Does she get a pass because she looks hot naked standing in the flames? Yes, Yes she does. Arya and Jon are killed by Ramsey but are able to warg into Nymeria and Ghost to tear Ramsey apart and live happily ever after as wolves with the riverlands wolf pack. Cersei will set off the wildfire cache and burn King's Landing just to spite the High Sparrow. I think Ian McShane would have made a better Randyl Tarly. |
Patrick R | 01 Jun 2016 10:59 a.m. PST |
I just want everyone to die as horribly as possible, except for Ramsey, he comes back as a White Walker and is not longer the "Sane, discerning and balanced" person he used to be and turns Westeros into the tenth level of hell for the next few thousand years … |

The problem with the Internet is… I googled my theory and discovered that I had to stand in line to claim it. |

Does she get a pass because she looks hot naked standing in the flames? She does with me. She will end up being married to Gendry. Bran will warg into her male Dragon and kill the Night King once and for all. So no one died in the last show and I think they will be making up for that in the next. |
