ing what happened in the fourth episode h4l64
On Sunday (05th) of last week, the fourth episode from the eighth season of Game of Thrones. With the name The Last of the Starks (“The Last of the Starks”), the episode showed the first day after the Battle of Winterfell and the final end of the Night King and the white walkers.
Now the focus is and the arrival of Daenerys Targaryen, Jon Snow, Tyrion Lannister and the rest of the entourage to Porto Real, to fight against Cersei Lannister, the current queen of the Seven Kingdoms.
The fourth episode began with a funeral pyre for the dead of Battle of Winterfell. we see Daenerys saying goodbye to Jorah and whispering something in the dead knight's ear.
Afterwards, at the victory celebration feast, Daenerys appointed gendry, Robert Baratheon's bastard, as Lord of Storm's End - a way to end competition with the one who was entitled to the Throne? In any case, she herself conducted a toast in honor of the Arya Stark, the great heroine of the battle.
Daenerys is clearly annoyed by the way everyone congratulates Jon, especially on the fact that he has ridden the dragon, and leaves. In the banquet scene, there's also the moment that fans were really waiting for (the real fanservice the series needed): Brienne is offended by Tyrion's comment and Jaime goes after her, leaving Tormund devastated to see that he's lost his beloved to another. .
While Jaime and Brienne finally resolve seasons and seasons of sexual tension, Jon and Daenerys try to resolve the main problem in their relationship: Dany is Jon's aunt and Jon is the threat to Dany's ultimate goal, which is to win the Iron Throne.
After the night of celebrations, it was time to plan the next steps to remove Cersei Lannister from power. The new phase of Game of Thrones begins. While Sansa wants the men to rest, Dany intends to go as fast as possible to King's Landing to claim the coveted Throne of Game of Thrones.
At the Old Gods tree, Sansa and Arya pressure Jon to leave Daenerys and stay in the North. He then tells him that he is the true Targaryen heir, son of Rhaegar - Dany's brother and what would be the rightful king. Sansa promises she won't tell anyone, but tells Tyrion to try to articulate Jon as King of the Seven Kingdoms.
The mercenary Bronn reappears: he has gone north to kill Tyrion at the behest of Cersei. The Lannister then "repurchases" Bronn by offering Highgarden, showing once again that the relationship between the two is purely money-driven. But if Bronn really didn't like Tyrion, maybe he'd already killed him in the North.
Dany and her court then depart for King's Landing, as does the Hound. who claims to have unfinished business in the capital – would it be to kill the brother who rubbed his face in the fire and was responsible for some of the bloodiest deaths in Game of Thrones history? Arya s the Hound, with her other unfinished business: her list and the last names still on it.
At this point in the episode, it got confused: we don't know if they're going to King's Landing or Dragonstone first, but the most important point is that Varys starts articulating Jon as king - even though young Snow doesn't want the throne. The Spider shows his fear of seeing the Queen go mad and burn everyone with her dragon - which would be worse than his father, Aerys the Mad, as he didn't have a giant fire-breathing creature and still terrorized the Seven Kingdoms.
But then one of the most painful moments of the series (again) happens: Rhaegal is hit by several spears while flying over and dies, sunk in the sea while Dany is mounted on Drogon. Euron Greyjoy's fleet welcomes them, now trying to target Drogon.
Euron manages to destroy Daenerys' ships and capture Missandei - but we don't see how. The division becomes inevitable: Varys points out that everyone has to choose between Jon or Daenerys, as he fears Dany will become crazy like her father.
Back at Winterfell, news arrives and makes Jaime want to head south. Brienne tries to stop him, asking him to stay with her, saying he's a good man. Jaime then confesses that he threw Bran from the tower and everything he did for Cersei.
In King's Landing, Cersei tells Euron that the child she is carrying from Jamie is, in fact, his. If you were wondering why he made her sleep with Euron after complaining about him at court: it was to secure a future for her son.
Dany, Tyrion, Varys and Gray Worm along with the Unsullied arrive at the Red Keep to try to negotiate with Cersei, who tries to exchange Missandei's life for Daenerys' surrender.
Cersei then tells Missandei that if she has any final words, the time is now. She yells "Dracarys!" and Cersei orders Gregor Clegane to kill her, the knight then cuts off her head.
On the same day, Daenerys loses Rhaegal, one of her dragons, and Missandei, her close friend and confidant since she went to Slaver's Bay - now called Dragon's Bay. She turns her back on Cersei… and the episode ends. Now, the real war for the Iron Throne in Game of Thrones begins.
The penultimate episode of Game of Thrones 3k23j
The penultimate episode of Game of Thrones starts out focused on Varys. He receives one of his little birds, and when he lands with Jon Snow on the shores of Dragonstone, he tries to convince him to want to sit on the Iron Throne.
He its he's still not sure which side Daenerys' coin will be: heads, the crazy side, or tails, the greatness side. After all, a popular Westerosi saying, such as the Lannisters always pay their debts, is that every time a Targaryen was born, the gods would flip a coin up to see which side it would land on and then set its trajectory. .
Tyrion goes to talk to Daenerys to confess Varys' betrayal, but she assumes the traitor is Jon. Dany then discovers the scheme of how the information got around, which started with Jon telling the truth about being the son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark to Sansa, who told Tyrion, who told Varys. "Like I said, Jon cheated on me," Dany said in reference to when she asked Jon not to tell.
Dany is clearly down and seems to have made the decision that she will, in fact, deal with Jon based on the idea that he is a traitor. In her quarters, Varys burns the message delivered to her by one of her little birds. He removes the rings from his fingers just in time for Gray Worm and the Unsullied to enter the room to fetch him.
Varys is taken to the slopes of Dragonstone, where Dany, Jon and Tyrion are. Varys says goodbye to the Lannister and Dany takes the lead, declaring that he has sentenced the eunuch to death. She says "dracarys" and Drogon burns Varys alive.
Dany then puts Jon up against the wall and blames Sansa for Varys' death. Jon continues to argue that he doesn't want the Throne, that he has no interest in being king. At that moment, however, there is a sudden change in Dany: she goes from wanting to fight for the people to saying that she doesn't mind being feared by them instead of being loved. Soon she, the Breaker of Chains.
Back in the throne room on Dragonstone, Dany threatens Tyrion - once again showing that she has gone from being the tough but fair queen to just becoming a tough ruler.
Jon, Ser Davos, and Tyrion arrive at the warriors' camp. As Jon walks away, Tyrion then asks for Davos' help, but the scene cuts before the viewer can figure out what he would be asking of the film's biggest smuggler. At the same time, Arya and the Hound arrive in King's Landing. It's a shame the series didn't show more about their trip before that - their last trip together yielded several episodes and the epic battle between Hound and Brienne.
Tyrion then meets with Jaime who is once again taken prisoner. And he was recognized precisely because of the golden hand. "You didn't think to take it off?" Tyrion asks, to which Jaime replies, "Cersei once said I was the dumbest of the Lannisters."
Jaime is unfazed by his impending death, but Tyrion tries to save his brother and suggests he run away with Cersei. Jaime fears for Tyrion, who could be killed by Daenerys if she finds out he freed his brother. However, he believes that without Cersei around, thousands of lives will be spared - and that's worth his. The episode then has an emotional moment between the two Lannisters, in which Tyrion confesses that Jaime was all he had in life.
Now the last war really begins. Euron Greyjoy and the Iron Fleet prepare to attack. In King's Landing, the citizens are protected behind the Red Keep, with the Hound and Arya sneaking between them, as does Jaime Lannister. Cersei's army is ready to fight Daenerys's.
After the calm before the storm, the battle begins. Iron Fleet tries to hit Drogon, who flies through the skies mounted by Daenerys. In the previous episode, Missandei had said "Dracarys!" as his last words. And that's exactly what Dany did, by burning all enemy ships and scorpions (the giant beasts created by Qyburn to slay dragons).
On land, the two armies stand silently against each other. They wait. But what the Lannisters didn't expect was for a dragon to come burning everything from behind.
Dany's warriors then take the front and attack the remaining men of Cersei's army that survived. We even see several Dothraki – which is a good sign considering they all looked like they had died in the fight against the Night King at the Battle of Winterfell.
Mounted on Drogon, Dany sets fire to everything, exactly what Missandei had asked him. In the Red Keep, Cersei is unshaken, certain that they will succeed. Qyburn tries to make her see that the odds are low, but Cersei doesn't give up: "I won't fall today."
Led by Gray Worm, the warriors composed of Jon Snow and Ser Davos advance through the city to find all the Lannister soldiers retreating. Drogon approaches to stand on a wall, roaring. This is the ultimate factor for all of Cersei's soldiers to drop their swords and ring the surrender bells.
Dany, however, is not happy with the bells ringing. She soars on Drogon towards the Red Keep, burning the citizens and warriors who ran in terror. Gray Worm then throws a spear at one of the soldiers who had surrendered. Jon tries to stop the bloodbath, but fails.
Parents are killed in front of their children. Drogon's fire burns King's Landing. General chaos erupts through the city's streets, with Jon and Tyrion in disbelief at the proportions it has taken. Snow saves a woman from being raped, killing the soldier who was going to attack her.
Drogon then attacks the Red Keep, starting to destroy the building's turrets. Jaime Lannister continues to sneak around to try to get to Cersei, but Euron Greyjoy comes out of the sea just as he is ing by. He confesses to Jaime that he slept with Cersei and says he will give his head to his sister as a gift. The two fight and Euron manages to stab Jaime.
Maester Qyburn tries to get Cersei out of the castle to save her, which she is reluctant before doing. Drogon's fire causes hidden living fire barrels to explode.
Jaime tries to reach for the sword, but Euron notices it before he can. The Greyjoy hits Jaime once more, but the Kingslayer manages to grab the sword and plunges it through Euron's stomach, killing yet another king. Before dying, Euron tells himself that he is "the man who killed Jaime Lannister". However, Jaime manages to get up and walk away.
The Hound tries to convince Arya to leave, but she is determined to kill Cersei. “If you come with me, you will die here.” At this moment, the Hound's entire paternal relationship with Arya is concluded in an emotional scene in which Arya calls him by name for the first time, soon to thank him for everything he has done for her.
The Hound kills Cersei's guards before finally reuniting with her brother, The Mountain. Cersei asks Ser Gregor Clegane to stay by her side, but he continues to walk towards her brother. Cersei then orders him to stop, which causes Qyburn to enforce the queen's request. However, the Mountain again ignores the request and kills Qyburn. He then fights his brother.
Cersei escapes and, at the castle, is finally reunited with Jaime. The two embrace in a touching moment, which makes Cersei realize that Jaime is injured. Meanwhile, Sandor Clegane manages to plunge his sword into the Mountain, but that doesn't stop Gregor, who rips the sword out of his stomach and starts throwing his brother hard against the stairs.
Arya is caught in the chaos against the crowd, while cut scenes show Ser Gregor beating Sandor Clegane over and over, he then pulls a knife from his belt and stabs the Mountain over and over again. He fails to kill him, so the Mountain tries to kill Sandor the same way it killed Oberyn Martell. Just before he succeeds, Sandor Clegane manages to get the dagger into his head, but it's not enough: Gregor is still alive. He then grabs his brother and jumps off the tower with him.
King's Landing burns, both from Drogon's fire and from the living fire that was hidden in the city. Jon then yells at the men to retreat, trying to end the tragedy and minimize losses as quickly as possible.
Arya appears immobile and full of blood - but calm down, she survived. She runs to escape a tower that falls into the streets and finds the capital's residents hiding. She tries to save them, causing them to leave the city that is being destroyed. She manages to save the woman who saved her life earlier, but she and her daughter are left behind, being hit by fire.
Jaime continues to try to save Cersei, but she is paralyzed by the sight of the castle crumbling. She begs Jaime not to let her die, asking their baby to survive. Jaime hugs Cersei and the two die together, buried by the Red Keep.
Arya finds a horse and manages to flee the burning city. And so ends the penultimate episode of Game of Thrones.
