Davos motivation for securing Jon's body. Was that because he saw the Traitor sign and sensed trouble? I get why moving/guarding Jon's body is important, but I didn't get why Davos would. BTW, Davos can read. RIP Shireen.
Why was Davos staring at Jon's crime scene after body removed? That seemed important.

i loved the Davos & Shireen scenes. totally missed the fact that Davos could even read the sign.

lots of people have asked about the Davos staring at the crime scene. but i just cant see secret meaning there. its a big shocking deal, and i think its just trying to be dramatic.

Show gave us clear shot of Davos looking at sign, and he's now a "learned man" thanks to Shireen [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. It will be interesting to see what they do when Davos & Mel discuss Shireen.

While we don't know how this shakes out in book, i'm finding this story-telling a bit odd. I guess they're just working up to a big NW-Wilding showdown.

I'm still hoping Bran + Old Gods will pay Jon a visit while he's out, but that's probably unlikely.

I think its safe to say that's beyond D&D's capability at this point after they trainwrecked the Dorn plotline. Didn't end up rewatching the episode, cringed thinking about firing it up again.

heres hoping for episode 2.

Said it before, Red God resurrection for Jon is bad captain obvious writing (I don't care if the Red God is associated with the Targaeryans (sp don't care) and its Jon Targaryens true religion, that doesn't save this at all for me). Why doesn't it work for me on the show is because of "LOOK LOL RED PRIEST MAGIC" all 6 seasons, episode after episode, over and over, scene after scene. Its just dumb ass writing (show-wise). Book-wise however, I don't have any beef with it at all because there is no red magic saturation and Red Priest story force-feeding going on.

here's the thing. in the books, Mel and Thoros never, ever meet (at least from the point that we are introduced to each character in the books). in the show, Mel and Thoros do meet, and the show makes it super blatant clear that the viewers are made aware of the conversation between Mel and Thoros regarding resurrection and Beric Dondarion.

it might not be good, clever, or creative writing.. but it's gonna happen none the less.

although, after watching them butcher Aero Hotah and Doran and essentially the Martel bloodline, i guess i shouldn't expect things to make a ton of sense anymore. maybe prince charming with just wake Jon up with true love's kiss.
