They could maybe have started on it earlier, but I’m really glad we have three episodes after the Night King is dead.
i knew that this would be the case. i just somehow feel like everything after last night should be a walk in the park.

Pretty sure Sam's jacket was just a coat from LL Bean

So is Arya the princess who was promised?

Associate: "You know we don't have the 'you can return anything, anytime' policy anymore, right? It has to be a defect or within 90 days."
Sam: "Well, here's the thing: I don't wear it too often, and I just noticed the hole yesterday--I'm pretty sure it's always been there."
Associate: "What's this?" [brushes off sleeves] "Is this White Walker dust? Did you wear this coat at the Battle of Winterfell? And you're trying to pass it off as lightly used?"

Dunno. Think we might have seen aryas big contribution and were done with her maybe?
I still want her taking anyone’s face and killing Cersei and revealing herself as she bleeds out.
Can’t see it happening now though

Hopefully they have something special saved. Not just the "good guys" defeating Cersei, and peace in the Seven Kingdoms.

I think even that has been done too much. It would feel like a cop out.

I wonder how will Sansa and Arya react when/if they find out Jon is their cousin and true heir to the throne?

Could be the cause of the big divide and split loyalties.
Dany will want the throne and all to bend the knee.
Sansa will want independence for the north.
Jon caught in the middle of them not knowing what to do.

Ghost doing fuck all was among the biggest disappointments of the episode. I thought he’d do something awesome and then die for budgetary reasons. My derp wolf was more active during the 80 minutes than Ghost.

Really disappointed that the White Walkers ended up having no depth to them beyond “rogue weapon created by the children of the forest”

I'm going to say it's not the third thing. Benioff kinda tips his hand on that in the post-ep interview (at least, that's how I took it).

I'll have to watch that, I almost never do. From what I recall, they had said the third moment was from the "very end."

It feels antithetical at this point to me. I agree it would still be cool to see Arya take of a person that's basically been #1 on her list from the jump. But what happened last night makes it sort of irrelevant.
My hope is that whatever else happens with "The Last War" that Arya lives and heads west of west. I want her to roam and explore and be a sort of ninja-jedi-avenging angel in the unexplored lands beyond the known world.
