things to know before GOT S7 E7 #got

Bran Stark is the Night King""The first time, he tries to prepare the Mad king for the white walkers and makes him (through the same whisper-method used to get Neds attention) prepare wildfire under King's landing, where the white walkers attacked (this attack is in the future for us viewers). But Bran fails, as the Mad king goes crazy from the whispers and instead tries to burn the city. The second time, Bran goes even further back in time (as he continiously learn his abilites he is able do go longer and longer back in time) to try discover how the others were defeated the first time. He fail again and instead succeeds to become Bran the Builder, building the Wall and securing his birth by building Winterfell and creating the words "There must always be a Stark in Winterfell".The last time, Bran goes back all the way to where the Night king was created, to warg into the human that later is going to become the Night king (or maybe even try to kill the children of the forest). He wargs into him to instead stop the "dragonglass into the heart"-event from happening (or maybe in his attempt to kill the children, he gets chosen as the vessle for the NK). Only he doesn't think of that the children of the forest won't recognize him from the future, and that they at that point are in war with the first men (he is gagged because of all the wierd future-talk). When he realized he failed again, he tries to go back in the current timeline, but can't because he's too deep into the past and stayed to long ("it is beautiful beneath the sea, stay to long and you drown"). From here Bran gets stuck in the past (exactly as Brynden and Jojen warned him not to) and becomes the Night king. With the combination of the childrens magic and Brans power, he becomes the villian instead of the hero he tried to be, resulting in turning against the children for creating him and getting stuck behind the magical Wall he later builds as Bran the builder.

Sansa is slowly turning into the Stark version of Cersei We always knew we'd see a darker side to Sansa, and Sophie Turner even confirmed in it an interview: "She's kind of one a power trip. She's becoming more and more unlikable." Honestly, it sounded like she was describing Cersei rather than Sansa, and everyone's worst fears were confirmed when the season began. Sansa's hair was eerily similar to Cersei's before it was cut, and Turner told Refinery29, "Sansa's hair is constantly reflecting the people she's learning from, or mimicking, or inspired by at the time." Plus she had this conversation about Cersei with Jon: Sansa: "You're the military man, but I know her. If you're her enemy, she'll never stop until she's destroyed you. Everyone who's ever crossed her she's found a way to murder." Jon: "You almost sound as if you admire her." Sansa: "I learned a great deal from her."

Jon Snow is actually Azor Ahai Okay, so this video explains the theory better than I ever could. Basically, Jon Snow isn't only weirdly pretty, a kind, and everyone's favourite GoT character, but he's also Azor Ahai, AKA, the Promised Prince who will end the long night and defeat the White Walkers

Tyrion is actually a Targaryen Maybe the reason Tywin always hated his 'son' Tyrion wasn't because of his Dwarfism, but because he knew that Tyrion was never his. The Mad King Aerys Targaryen always had a thing for Joanna Lannister, Tyrion's mother, and rumour has it that her marriage didn't kill his desire for her. So they basically had a child out of wedlock, and the Tyrion of the book is described as being a little more Targaryen in his appearances. The Lannisters were known for the golden hair and green eyes, while the Targaryens were known for their silver-blonde hair and purple eyes. And Tyrion is described as having pale blonde hair, with one black and one green- essentially a cross between the 2 houses. Plus, before the whole 'Viserion turning into a scary ice dragon thing', there were 3 dragons, to be ridden by 3 Targaryens. Dany, Jon, and presumably, Tyrion. Maybe Tyrion can tame Viserion, removing him from the Night King's control? You never know.

Cersei is actually Gendry's mother Now, fans theorize that Cersei grew to hate Robert so much that she couldn't bare to see a child of his on the Iron Throne. But she couldn't kill him either, because ultimately, Cersie always did have a strong maternal instinct. So she hid him away, close to the palace so that she could keep an eye on him while clearing the way for children she actually did want and love: her children with Jaime. Gendry also calls himself a 'fighter' while trying to convince Jon to let him go beyond the wall, something Cersei called her supposedly dead child. The only real thorn in this theory is the fact that Maggie the Frog predicted that Cersei would only have 3 children. Most of her predictions have already come true, but the producers have been known to bend the rules either way.

Arya has been dead since she left Braavos So ever since the last episode, where Arya and Sansa were basically pissed off at each other and arguing about who had suffered more, the internet has been trying to figure out 2 girls who have been through so much can be SO easily manipulated. But then what if Arya is really just playing dumb? What if she wants Littlefinger to think that he has the upper hand, while she tests Sansa's loyalty and fools Little Finger time again?
