Welcome to the pre-show discussion for Season 8: Episode 1. Here we can speculate and theorize before the episode airs. Please do not discuss any spoilers without spoiler tags or reference any leaks. Let's be respectful of our fellow members who have stayed innocent of the final season.

It's pretty quiet in here considering we only have THREE DAYS left until this premiere episode goes live! Let's get this pre-show party started! Ok, I'll start. What are your three top reunions in episode one you are looking forward to most at Winterfell? Me: 1. Jon & Arya! 2. Arya & Gendry 3. Arya & Sandor (hmm, do I detect an Arya theme here?)

For me, it would definitely be Arya+Melisandre. But I think I'll have to wait for that one

Arya: Bitch didn't I tell you I was gonna kill your ass the next I saw you?

Reunions I look forward to: Jon and Arya Arya and Gendry Sam and Jon Things I look forward to in general: Dragons flying over Winterfell, the shots we already got were amazing. The warm welcome between Sansa and Dany. Sam reacting to the fact that his dad and brother were torched by Dany. There's more but it is early in the morning here.

The warm welcome between Sansa and Dany. Sam reacting to the fact that his dad and brother were torched by Dany. I think everyone's going to be on pins and needles about how Sansa and Daenerys navigate getting to know one another. Sansa's formal words at the beginning (from the trailers) display her 'courtesy armor' at it's fullest. I remember back to when she had to meet the Boltons and how she pulled that off. Sansa's a true politician now, she will be exemplary in politeness but reserved, which I am sure Dany will see through immediately. The great thing about these two is how much they actually have in common. Both had to survive being 'sold off' as marriage pawns and raped as well as survivors of captivity with enemies who wanted them dead. Both survived that and became strong leaders. I really hope they have a heart-to-heart conversation along these lines because it will help bring them together in sisterhood. I like that you mentioned the Sam/Dany dynamic because while I'm sure Sam isn't sorry to see his cruel father gone, he may have some sadness for his brother as well as how his Mother/sister (both sweet people) are handling things now without a Lord at Horn Hill and they must be quite upset and uncertain. His trust in Daenerys will ride solely on his trust in Jon.

John Bradly's interview really got to me, he basically admitted that Sam has been manipulating things in Jon's favor for the longest time.I can totally see Sam wanting to pry apart Jon and Dany.

Of all the people who would object to Jon and Daenerys being together, Samwell Tarley would be the very last person in Westeros to ever do that. You said yourself, Sam has done everything in Jon's favor. He trusts Jon implicitly. There is NO way Sam would be manipulative against Jon and Daenerys. ugh.

If they're really going with Sam being upset about his brother (he might not care, or shake it off), how do you forgive that and move on? It could be the bittersweet (overused I know) part of the ending; Sam tries to break them up and fails and it irrecoverably changes Sam and Jon's relationship.

But anyway, this is general show speculation and we already have an entire 75 page long thread on that which we've been doing for the past 18 months. I'm ready to focus on the first episode. Sam and Jon's reunion is going to be a strong one. I'm uncertain if they'll launch right into revealing Jon's identity in episode 1 but I'm certain it's going to be a tough one and again, Jon's strong bond with Sam is important here.

With so little time, it has to be episode 1. I am DYING for Arya Jon reunion though. THERE BETTER BE TEARS!!!
