Episode Titles Breakdown
Posted: Fri Jul 07, 2017 7:08 pm
Breaking down the titles of episodes 701, 702, and 703 with full knowledge of filming spoilers and leaks:
Episode 1: "Dragonstone"
Pretty straightforward: Daenerys' fleet lands at Dragonstone, her birthplace and House Targaryen's ancestral seat.
Episode 2: "Stormborn"
This title is actually quite brilliant. At face value, it appears to simply refer to Daenerys' title of Stormborn, given to her because she was born on Dragonstone while a massive storm destroyed the Targaryen fleet laying at anchor. But in the episode, Euron, who calls himself "the storm," will smash Theon and Yara's fleet. A storm destroyed Targaryen ships when Daenerys was born on Dragonstone, and a storm will destroy Targaryen ships when she returns to it.
Episode 3: "The Queen's Justice"
Another great multifaceted title. Jaime will serve the queen's justice to the Tyrells, who rebelled against Cersei by supporting Daenerys, by sacking Highgarden and killing Olenna. Meanwhile, Grey Worm and the Unsullied will serve the queen's justice to the Lannisters, who betrayed Aerys and hold Daenerys' rightful throne, by sacking Casterly Rock.
Any other thoughts on the titles? Or the episode descriptions: Who is Daenerys' unexpected visitor? What "gift" does Cersei receive and to whom does she "return" it to?
