Biggest question is where does the Hound fit into all of this. Wonder if he will bump into Arya again and throw a wrench into her plans

He's a little late for that... still I can't figure out why she was the one to kill old crusty pie. Or was it her mother that was killed during the blood wedding? As I recall, her father was killed by king nutty meanie.

In hindsight, children of incest are as messed up as science has told us. Those siblings were something one would scrape off the shoe before entering the house.

Her mother and brother Rob were killed in the red wedding. Arya was brought there by the Hound and was there when the killing happened.
 
Correct, it's hard to place them as all the names are so similar lol.
But even though the Targaryens are definitely into that, I don't think Dany or Jon would be.
Dany was expected to marry her own brother, and always thought she would. She's been well versed in keeping the bloodlines pure. It wouldn't be a big deal, especially if he finds out after they're married, if he ever finds out. At this point it's up to Bran.
 
Bran might see it's best to keep it secret, also. The truth would give Sansa the north, who is not trustworthy, not only did she keep her alliance/dealings with the Vale secret TWICE, she looks completly unhappy at Jon's rise as King, and it has given LF a big opening. Bran has the responsibility as the Three Eyed Raven now, who was known to keep secrets and even lie (like Bran's ability to change the past), because of the consequences the truth could bring. Telling Jon's secret would not only throw the north into chaos, as he would no longer be king of the north, but it would put Jon right into Dany's cross hairs, as he would have a better claim (birth right) to the iron throne than she does.

Jon also just makes the most sense in marriage for Dany. They need the north, winter is here, there's a good chance Euron is lying in wait with a thousand ships to undercut her. They still have the Lannisters to worry about, the Vale and the chaos that is house Bolton. Also, the north is the only protection they have sans dragons to prevent extermination from the Night King. Dany is going there to marry a leader/king of one of the realms to unite Westeros, as she stated in the last episode. It's either Jon, king of the north, Littlefinger, Sweet Robin, or Euron. Who do you think she'll choose?

Jon has already united the north, people follow him, he's a natural leader with a great reputation. Tyrion knows Jon and his honor, and he knows the treachery of the other houses. Jon needs men, especially if the Vale turns on him, which they no doubt will. A Jon and Dany marriage makes the most sense. Dany will want to marry him, she'll be advised to, not only for strategery, but having the north and south gives her ultimate power. And she would WANT to marry Targaryan blood, anyway. If you could construct a perfect husband for her it would be Jon.
 
I think Bran is still too immature to keep it a secret.
He's still discovering his powers and is likely to (possibly accidentally) reveal the info to either Sansa or Jon.
I don't think Euron will prove much of a threat if/once they reach Westeros.
I also think most Iron Islandees would turn tail & run once they see the first ships sunk by Dragons if they did ambush them on the narrow sea
 
If Euron has the dragon horn, which the actor playing him has hinted at, I would say he will be a mighty threat.

And Bran will be smart enough to know what to do.
 
When has Bran ever been smart? Lol

But yes if he has a dragon-horn then he'll be a threat, but the show has already varied from that part of the books, in that Euron uses the horn in the books to win the support of the Iron Islanders
 
Goodness, this show is so sexy! I still don't have a clue, but I LOVE IT! The last time I was such a crazy fan was when the original Star Wars came out. I was bonkers over that movie and I am bonkers over this show.
 
Vice Principals looks hilarious.

Well, he has to make mistakes... It will be pretty clear what he has to do. And if Euron doesn't have a dragon horn there's no point in him being in the series. That's his whole thing.
I'm sure Euron revealing the horn in a face off with Dany, in which her army and ships are destroyed by her own dragons, it will be a pretty huge deal.

Eh, they could lose the dragon horn plot and still make him relivant in the story. We are primed for a show down between Dany and Cersei... And Cersei has few allies to turn to. Enter Euron, with his fleet of brand new ships looking for a 'Queen' in power to help his own ambition, and his niece and nephew made sure Dany isn't an option anymore.

I don't think Cersi will be a big challenge, honestly. They have no allies, no money and no support.

Why is everyone downplaying Euron and his magic horn? Dude makes Ramsay look like Opie Taylor. And having a horn that controls dragons is HUGE. There's two more seasons, there is going to be serious drama, Cersi most likely isn't going to last past next year.
