Last night, Season 8, Episode 4 of Game of Thrones aired and it was truthfully a little disappointing. I think following up The Long Night would make even the best episode fall somewhat flat. And after the preview of the episode that aired last week, I had some expectations for this week's episode. That said-- the tweets are gonna be better than the episode itself!

Jon's Speech
Sansa Stark over here stirring the pot...
Seriously. I've been defending Sansa and her actions the last three weeks and now I'm pretty much done with her. She is playing the Game of Thrones and apparently family means nothing to her...
Now onto this gem:
And how we all feel about Cersei and Euron...
Unpopular (or popular?) opinion: Jamie didn't leave Brienne because he still loves Cersei; he left her to go right his wrongs.
Guess Ghost isn't in the budget anymore...
Or Rhaegal... (RIP)
Arya turning down the Lord of Storm's End:
Guess we're not getting the Stark x Baratheon marriage we all wanted...
But yay Gendry, Lord of Storm's End!
Arya and the Hound though!
Missandei's Death:
It's pretty powerful when a woman from a nation of pacifists tells her Queen to burn them all:
And *gasp* a Starbucks cup caught on set!
And a few more:
I didn't hate this episode, in fact it had some great moments, but I was not emotionally invested in it at all. And, it definitely was poorly written. It's another set up episode, which I understand they need, but I expect a lot out of the last three episodes-- lots of crazy, BIG deaths and plot twists.
But next week should be really, really good!
