Brienne then speaks up for him as a man of honour, and this helps the others to accept Jaime into the fold - for the moment. Jaime rebuts their accusations with the simple - “We were at war”. The emotional sucker-punch of this episode begins with its very first scene: Daenerys confronting Jaime about murdering her father, and Sansa charging him with attacking hers on the streets of King's Landing. And yet, here they all are, fighting under a common banner and cause, at Winterfell.Įlsewhere in Winterfell are other former “foes”, now allies: the Hound, Theon.

War makes for strange bedfellows and none more so than this motley crew that has gathered at Winterfell. A man prays before the tombs of his family. Jon, Daenerys and the others consult on strategy. Brienne supervises the training of the fighting men. Winterfell is now readying for a war like no other: Ser Davos and Gilly oversee food and shelter for the many hundreds of Northerners who have poured into the castle walls.

The men of the Night's Watch, preparing to fight and die at their posts before the charge of Mance Rayder's Wildlings. King's Landing, rallying the night before the Battle of Blackwater Bay.
