Her: What happened in the end?
Me: Jon Snow assassinated the Dragon Queen. They formed a council of sorts and put Bran in charge. The end.
Her: They killed the Dragon Queen?!
Me: Yes.
Her: JON killed the Dragon Queen?!!
Me: Yes.
Her: Wha?!!!
Me: He realized she was heading down the road to madness just like her father and rather than risk any more lives and property, he stabbed her. She died. Since he killed the queen he was banished back to the Night’s Watch.
Her: So he didn’t become king? Wasn’t he supposed to be king?
Me: Yes.
Her: They were related. Nasty! How, again?
[This results in a longer than necessary discussion of Jon Snow’s family tree, then me Googling it.]
Me: She was his aunt.
Her: His aunt?!
Me: Yes.
Me: She was his aunt.
Her: His aunt?!
Me: Yes.
[And then we sidetracked into a discussion of Targaryen madness.]
Her: I can’t believe it no wonder people are mad. Wait! What happened to those things?
Me: Uhhh....
Her: The zombie things.
Me: White Walkers?
Her: Yeah.
Me: There was a huge battle. It was fantastic television. Oh my goodness! I remember watching it and being so on edge!
Her: What happens to them?!
Me: Oh. Uh. I can’t remember. Hmm...
[At this point she takes a bathroom break to give me some time to recall. I couldn’t for the life of me, so I consulted a co-worker.]
[She comes back from the bathroom.]
Me: I got it. Arya killed the main guy and they all went down.
Her: What main guy?
Me: You know the main White Walker guy? He rode the horse?
Her: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah! Arya? That girl is something, isn’t she? Good. What happened to the red lady?
Me: Oh that was good. She sacrificed herself to help defeat the White Walkers. She started a massive bonfire.
Her: You know she foresaw that. Wow sacrifice. And what about that one guy, the one without a penis?
Me: Ha! Which one?!
Her: The eunuch? The big guy?
Me: Oh yeah, him. Pretty sure he died can’t remember how, though.
Her: She predicted his death, too. Okay, what about those other incestuous people?
Me: Jaime and the really mean one? The Lannisters. Pretty sure they were buried alive after dragon lady destroyed that whole town.
Her: Serves them. He was evil from the beginning when he pushed that boy and I though he was the devil himself because he had such a smooth voice and worked it for some sympathy. Uh hmm. What about that guy without a penis?
Me: Ha!
Her: The one who had it cut off. And do you remember that scene when it happened and they guy who did it was eating sausage? Do you think...
Me: Theon! Theon died! It was right before Arya killed the White Walker guy. He was protecting Bran who was standing out in the woods by the tree, then Arya came out of nowhere. Stab!
Her: Oh yeah, he liked them woods. That’s too bad. He was growing on me. The big guy?
Me: The book guy? Pretty sure he lived.
Her: Did he make an honest woman of that girl?
Me: I can’t remember, but I don’t think they got married.
Her: That poor baby. What happened to Greyworm?
Me: You mean the other guy without a penis?!
Her: Ha!
Me: He went in a rage after... wait, maybe you should sit for this: They killed Missandei.
Her: That's Greyworm's girlfriend, right? What?!! She’s dead?!!!
Me: Yep. The Lannisters.
Her: But she didn’t do anything!
Me: I think that was the point. She was insignificant to everyone, but Dragon Queen and Greyworm and the audience. It was a good plot point.
I can’t believe it! Not Sandy!

I can’t believe it! Not Sandy!
Me: Missandei. So, Greyworm and Dragon Queen tore up Queen’s Landing after that. Who else?
Her: The other Stark girl?
Me: Lived. So Bran’s head of the council, Jon’s on the Night’s Watch. Arya's is still on her own and Sansa is on the council, I think.
Her: Al the Lannisters are dead?
Me: Yep. Wait! Except Tyrion.
Her: Who's that?
Me: The short one.
Her: Yeah. And the penis guy’s sister?
Me: Theon’s sister lived, I think.
Her: Okay. I feel better.
Me: Glad to help.
Me: Theon’s sister lived, I think.
Her: Okay. I feel better.
Me: Glad to help.
