This is not a traditional spoiler in the sense that (a) I haven't seen any future episodes and (b) doesn't come from a source that purports to have seen future episodes, but I think it's best to put it under a spoiler tag:
Some book makers in the UK actually had Bran for the shortest odds for "ending up on the throne at the end of the show" wagers. Some people laughed at it, but others worried that there was sharp money---people who had leaks from the set, maybe----placing big amounts on it. Time will tell.

I think Sansa learned a little too much from Cersei and fails to see the bigger picture of consequences a la uplifting the high sparrow and giving the faith militant power

Yet, we're going to have to suffer through a forced and illogical narrative about how Dany is jealous and insane and power-mad. Meanwhile...
The victory feast scene was sublime. Felt like things could turn sour at any moment. Red wedding-esque. Nice to see Varys back doing Varys things.
But the last scene was so bad. They would have been better off smash cutting from Tyrion suggesting they give Cersei the chance to surrender, to Dany stumbling back through the gates with a giant bandage on her head like, "Any other brilliant ideas, Maester Einstein?" Urine will try to shoot her out of the sky ambush style but won't wipe her out when she's right in front of them, completely vulnerable? Dumb.
The episode was very similat to what I had pictured it to be. I enjoyed it, really interesting. Expect a major battle next week. Then hopefully an episode after the battle in two weeks.

I don’t agree with assertion that she’s not fit to rule nor that it will actually be trouble for the north. Her test trial in Meereen certainly didn’t go well, but she’s definitely learned from it.
