*Warning: Major spoilers ahead*
The latest episode of Game of Thrones, ‘The Queen’s Justice’, fast-forwarded the show’s plot and saw developments in a number of major and minor storylines.
The episode began with the much awaited meeting of ‘ice and fire’, Jon and Daenerys. It saw Cersei undefeated and cleverly dodging her enemies and ended with Olenna Tyrell confessing, with a mic drop, that she poisoned Geoffrey, soon after drinking poison herself.
Twitter Gets Right to the Juicy Bits
Here’s a look at the episode’s highlights in tweets.
The Most Anticipated Meeting
The meeting scene, which was perhaps meant to be a little comical, inspired a number of memes on the interwebs. Jon had a tough time convincing Daenerys of the existence of the White Walkers.
Olenna Tyrell’s Got Swag
Twitter saw a rise in membership of the Olenna Tyrell fan club. The matriarch of House Tyrell was swiftly crowned Episode Badass.
Queen of the Ashes
Olenna Tyrell might have come close to Cersei’s level of sass, but Cersei fans continued to back their Queen as justice was served in the episode.
Uhm, What? Get It Together, Bran
Bran and Sansa’s interaction, after the union of the siblings, left a lot of viewers, shall we say, baffled.
Get There Quicker!
Arya Stark was, disappointingly, missing from the episode.
With just 4 episodes left, everyone is both anxious and excited for what’s to come.
