* BothSidesHaveAPoint: Jon Snow is right about the White Walkers but Tyrion and Dany have invested too much suffering, time and money to come to Westeros only to be told that there's ''another'' bigger war north of them, and that their current conflict is meaningless, which naturally hits Dany's BerserkButton. Tyrion clearly starts believing it, but both he and Dany are too caught in their current predicament to suddenly come around to it. He convinces her to let Jon mine dragonglass in the meantime, since it's worthless rock to them and will help build bridges should they need his aid.

* BothSidesHaveAPoint: The viewer knows that Jon Snow is absolutely right about the White Walkers and the imminent threat they pose, but Tyrion and Dany have invested too much suffering, time and money to come to Westeros only to be told that there's ''another'' bigger war north of them, and that their current conflict is meaningless, which naturally hits Dany's BerserkButton.BerserkButton. From the perspective of Tyrion and Dany, someone just showed up out of nowhere to tell them to stop their full-scale invasion of Westeros and go North to fight fantastical creatures thought to be myths; it's understandable that they'd show skepticism at first. Tyrion clearly starts believing it, but both he and Dany are too caught in their current predicament to suddenly come around to it. He convinces does convince her to let Jon mine dragonglass in the meantime, since it's worthless rock to them and will help build bridges should they need his aid.

Turning the spotlight back on '''Dragonstone''', Daenerys and the remains of her war council (Varys, Missandei and Tyrion) stand about the Painted Table, discussing their options. Without the combined Greyjoy-Tyrell-Martell task force besieging King's Landing, the Unsullied will have a hell of a time taking Casterly Rock. Tyrion describes (and the footage depicts) the standing garrison his father built, and the defenses he commissioned, and the loss of life when StormingTheCastle. Fortunately, it's all an ImagineSpot, as Lord Tywin didn't design ''everything'' about Casterly Rock: he left the sewers to Tyrion, who secretly designed a way into Casterly Rock so he could sneak women in without his father knowing. Grey Worm leads a commando team within, opening the gates and letting the Unsullied flood in. In the end, Grey Worm stands over a captured castle... but with Euron's fleet savaging Daenerys' out to sea, and the recognition that the Rock was under-garrisoned. This leads to the question of where the other Lannister armsmen are.

* AdultFear: Ellaria is faced with her daughter Tyene being threatened by a vengeful psychopath who fully intends to kill her, and is reduced to desperately and futilely begging for mercy for her child from a woman who will show her none (as well as being faced with the knowledge [[SinsOfOurFathers it's her own fault her daughter is in that situation in the first place]]). Afterwards, she is left chained and gagged inches out of reach from her fatally poisoned daughter, left with the knowledge that Tyene ''will'' die but not when, powerless to say or do anything to help or comfort her daughter in her final hours. It's made even worse by the terrified, plaintive whimper of "[[IWantMyMommy Mama!]]" that Tyene lets out when she realises what Cersei has done to her; she's a terrified child begging for reassurance from her mother and there is ''nothing'' Ellaria can do to comfort her, a fear any parent can relate to.

** Even though their union turned into a PerfectlyArrangedMarriage, it doesn't change the fact that Daenerys was still initially raped by Drogo and she remembers it this way.
** When Daenerys declares she will ride her dragons to personally burn down Euron's fleet, both Tyrion and Missandei argue against it, pointing out that not only could the fleet be anywhere, but for all the power of the dragons themselves, one precise arrow could kill Dany by hitting her on her perch atop a dragon (as one of her female ancestors suffered, although she survived).
** Furthermore, as she's the only person the dragons will possibly allow to ride them, she can't send loyal but ultimately expendable followers to do it in her place.
** Even though Samwell did complete a DangerousForbiddenTechnique without a hitch, this doesn't mean that he's going to be given praise and sped ahead in his training as a maester. He broke the rules, and he has to learn how to be one of them like anyone else, slowly. He ''is'' praised, but it's only by virtue of the fact that he didn't [[NiceJobBreakingItHero fail or, worse, infect himself or even the entire Citadel]] that he's not expelled immediately.
** Tyrion is a skilled tactician, as the Battle of Blackwater proved, but no strategic planner -- no matter how talented -- is going to make a good decision based on flawed, incomplete information.
** Cersei might be surrounded by enemies, but she still controls the most powerful house, has internal lines of communication, a veteran army, and control of the sea lanes. She is ''not'' going down easily.
