40 Twitter Memes for Every Big Reveal on Game of Thrones Season 7, Episode 5
Warning: TONS OF SPOILERS for Season 7 Episode 5 of Game of Thrones. By now, you’ve hopefully caught up with Game of Thrones Season 7 Episode 5 – Eastwatch. It was an evening of big reveals. Huge ones. Some of them were so shocking because they weren’t even written in the books! While definitely a slower paced episode than the last (Songs of Winter), Eastwatch was definitely among the most important this season. It brought some reunions (like Jorah and Dany, and more amazingly, Gendry and everyone!), some unexpected plot twists (hello Cersei’s baby bump), and of course, the biggest reveal as discovered by none other than Gilly (Jon’s parents were married! He’s not a bastard!) Now, here’s how the collective Twitterari reacted:
1. All of us wondering how on earth Jamie and Bronn managed to escape…

Dickon Tarly always had the look of a Star Trek extra wearing red.
