This Video is the Recap of Game of thrones Season 7 Episode 3 "The Queen's Justice"
OK, so it's very possible the massive changes to the symbolic board were glossed over a
bit in last week's recap.
Euron's capture of Yara and destruction of Dany's fleet completely messed over what
would have been a pretty effective plan to take Westeros.
And that changes things.
And this episode shows just how much Euron was able to accomplish in a single, bloody
battle.
Plus he now has Ellaria Sand and one of the Sand Snakes — some very enticing gifts for
Cersi.
He brings, as he puts it, justice for her murdered daughter.
Euron also asks Jaime for sexual advice when it comes to Cersi in some pretty graphic terms,
which continues this season's trend of mocking Jaime without him being able to do anything
about it.
But let's take a step back.
The episode begins with Jon showing up at Dragonstone, because when the show doesn't
want to waste time then it doesn't waste any time.
The time it takes to get somewhere has always been a slightly elastic thing for Game of
Thrones, but who is going to complain when we begin
with what we've been waiting to see for so long?
Right?
It's also nice to hear two smart characters admit to each other that all of this is pretty
bonkers Melisandre knows she has to leave, knows she
will return and knows she will die in Westeros.
So I guess that story has been neatly mapped out for us, but I'm guessing that how this
all happens will be surprising in some way Daenerys makes Jon a pretty great pitch for
joining up, but he doesn't mince words when it comes to trying to convince everyone in
that room that the White Walkers are on the way.
We know that the reality of this army is hard for people in Westeros to accept, but it's
easy to forget how strange and unbelievable it must sound to Daenerys and her forces.
Snow's admission that the fight for power means nothing in the face of an army that
will destroy humanity is powerful, but it doesn't get him anywhere.
I mean How could it?
It sounds mad.
Davos' impassioned argument in Jon's favor helps to bring the balance of power in the
argument back to Snow, This episode again reminds us how strange
everything has to sound to the characters who weren't there for each twist and turn,
and how much our well-informed point of view allows us to understand the bigger picture.
Watching characters trying to convince each other of things we know are true is equal
parts amusing and frustrating.
Jaime and Cersi are back to being the kind of siblings who need fresh sheets for the
bed, but the Iron Bank doesn't care about what's going on behind closed doors.
It wants its money back, and it wants to be able to bet on whoever is set to become the
next ruler of Westeros But at this point Cersei does actually seem
to have it figured out, which is a nice trait in someone who seems so weak strategically
on the surface.
S She's cornered, and that makes her dangerous,
and that makes for some fun television.
This season has been oddly light compared to what came before, and the show's self-awareness
borders on camp.
It's interesting how things change when Jon says he wants the dragon glass, a substance
that means nothing to Daenerys but suddenly becomes a lever she can pull to get something
(or at least earn some good faith).
Her decision to give him the material is smart, and I'm not just saying that as someone
who doesn't want this show to end with the destruction of all of mankind.
In terms of Littlefinger, I'm not saying that anyone on this show meditates, but his
advice is basically the opposite of mindfulness.
Forget that for a second, though: There's another Stark in Winterfell!
And he's stuck trying to explain what it means to be the Three-Eyed Raven, yet another
example of characters coming together after a long time apart having to give context to
events that sound ridiculous from the outside.
Bran's above hugs at this point, and Sansa doesn't seemed shocked by much anymore.
It's a pleasant meeting.
So Jorah did what Dany asked and found a cure, and Sam's ability to read a book and "follow
the instructions" seems impressive ... and then he's given cutwork and the ability
to continue his studies.
It's not a reward, but it's not exactly a punishment.
Tarion's need to get women to his chambers and his job of designing the sewers of Casterly
Rock may be what causes the fall of Casterly Rock, and Tarion's narration laid over the
fighting was an efficient way to get a lot of information to the viewer without sacrificing
the visuals of the battle itself.
But this fight turns out to have been a sort of strategic retreat, and taking Highgarden
will help pay back the Iron Bank while striking more fear into the hearts of the enemies of
the Lannisters.
It's a nifty bit of misdirection, and brings two more characters together for an interesting
conversation.
And some choice words for Joffrey's memory.
"I want her to know it was me," Olenna tells Jaime before dying, and now Cersei will
have the satisfaction of knowing exactly who killed Joffrey.
How comforting that will be for her Well this is the end of this video, subscribe
