Interesting pacing on that episode. Not too much cutting back and forth between the stories -- we pretty much had three long blocks of full stories.
Premium Cable: The Cursing Costs Extra
[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
So I'm predicting that since Jorah touched Dany and then Dany took Missandei's hand, they both now have greyscale.
However, I'm also predicting that a nice, refreshing bath of fire from Drogon can cure Dany.
Oh, right, totally forgot about Jorah being infected. Or whatever.
And if your second speculation is right (and it makes sense in the context of GoT), wouldn't it be funny if Shereen's greyscale made burning her do something other than kill her?
Is it enough to just touch someone with Greyscale anywhere or do you have to actually touch the infected skin to pick up the infection? I was thinking that maybe it was the latter and therefore Dany would not be infected. Otherwise, why would Jorah even offer her his hand? Surely, he wouldn't want her to get Greyscale, right? I don't know. All I know is I want a dragon and the white gown with that gorgeous dragon necklace that Dany was wearing last night. And then I want to fly it to Westeros and burn Stannis up. Worst parent ever (and that's saying A LOT in Westeros).

I kept hoping. I guess they could still do something with that next week, but it doesn't seem likely.
I don't know, kat, but that would make sense. The Stone Men were all over greyscale, so that data is not helpful.
Loved Dany's necklace, yes.
So I'm predicting that since Jorah touched Dany and then Dany took Missandei's hand, they both now have greyscale.
They did make a heck of a show of Dany taking Missandei's hand.
I'm kind of shocked that thatwasn't Dany's next week story. I think we may not get any Dany at all next week. Don't know about the Losers Left In Mereen, though.
However, I'm also predicting that a nice, refreshing bath of fire from Drogon can cure Dany.
I don't think Dany is THAT fireproof...
I also think that Shireen is really most sincerely dead. Which means that both Stannis and Dany are more or less dead ends as far as dynasties are concerned. They may have the best claims to the throne, but that just means there's another war in a few years.
Also, not only is Stannis the Worst Parent, he's also even less beloved of his men.
So, next week...Winterfell. Some sort of something with Cersei. Arya...Jon, maybe?
Stannis and Dany are more or less dead ends as far as dynasties are concerned.
Why couldn't they have more kids?
Stannis's wife has miscarried several times (as the show decided to excitingly illustrate in her decorating choices). He could, I suppose, remarry. Maybe Margaery will be on the market again if he ends up on the throne.
After Rhaego was...born...there was the prophecy that included Dany not giving birth to a live child. That is, I suppose, also not certain, but not a great start.
