Leading a vastly outnumbered frontal assault on a nigh-unkillable enemy is stupid. Failing to simply turn around with the corpse of the first rando to fall and wait for him to reanimate is stupid. Indeed, heading beyond the Wall without hats or scarves, or Ghost, or ANY DRAGONGLASS,* seems stupid. Dany had even laid it out earlier in the episode: “Heroes do stupid things and then they die.” These guys should really know better Jon may not be Ned’s son, but he seems to have nevertheless inherited Stark’s gift for strategery. It sucks, and only happened because of Jon & co.’s stupidity, following Tyrion’s stupid plan. The plan’s “catastrophic failure,” however, is obvious: Dany (apparently she hates that name, I DON’T CARE) is now down one dragon (Viserion?), which the Night King nonchalantly spears with an Ice Harpoon, dredges from the bottom of the frozen lake, and imbues with the spirit of darkness or whatever. Yes, that was all expected, if not acceptable. “Funny old life,” he muses to himself just minutes later, in TV time, his corpse is set alight by Beric’s flaming sword. Instead, it was ol’ Thoros of Myr, the perpetually sozzled priest, who succumbs to bite wounds from a reanimated polar bear. I was ready to say goodbye to Beric and Jorah, and I was terrified of losing Tormund, but they all live to fight another day, despite getting smacked about by zombies and (in Jorah’s case) nearly falling off a flying dragon. The former, because the group did manage to successfully bring a thrashing wight back to Eastwatch, after only losing one character we cared about and a handful of redshirts who never even got dialogue. Headline: The suicide mission of the Lord of Light Orchestra (or Snowcean’s Eleven, or the Inglorious Bastards, or whatever moniker you adopted this week) was simultaneously a tepid success, and a catastrophic failure. Hmm. Well, you can’t say it wasn’t exciting. The enemy always wins, and we still need to fight him.
