trailer breakdown
0:10: jaime watching over the body of his father, tywin, who (as we remember from last season) got a crossbow arrow in his belly mid-shit, grim. brienne (?) saying: "nothing's more hateful than failing to protect the one you love." brienne <3s jaime. sad cersei face. sad jaime face.
0:20: shot of the wall. PETYR BAELISH: "there's no justice in this world." still inexplicably irish. can't tell who the guy pulling the sword out is. maybe bronn? petyr baelish cupping sansa's (?) face. dark hair suggests it is sansa, as she transformed in the last series to dark-sansa.
0:25: woman whipping a barrel. she is most likely one of the 'sand snakes', the illegitimate daughters of oberyn martell (guy who got his head smushed in last season, r.i.p) in the kingdom of dorne (new place! new place! new place! cant wait to see it on the intro map)
0:29: yep it's sansa. petyr baelish grabbing her face eww. "avenge them". most likely he means her family, who are all still pretty much dead.
0:32 cannot figure out who the blonde woman cutting her finger is.
0:33 margaery and tommen getting hitched. we have a new queen (again). third time lucky, margaery.
0:34: wildlings?
0:38: varys pep-talking tyrion. who has just rolled out of the box he was packaged in at the end of last season after escaping the dungeons of kings landing (accused of poisoning joffrey).
0:42: gallows? i think? looks like the courtyard of castle black at the wall. possible (potential) execution scene. no spoilers.
0:48: varys and tyrion travelling through the streets. possibly missandei behind them.
0:50: gratuitous shots of jon snow and sansa having a bath.
1:00 ser jorah!!!!!!!!!!!! having a battle!! ahhhh! :( danaerys giving another badass quote.
1:02 i have literally no idea what popped out of the box cersei is looking at. torture device????
1:04: melisandre continuing to burn shit. probably people. cersei still wants tyrion dead. bitch needs therapy.
1:11: jon fighting. probably fighting more wildlings. probably where the wildlings from 0:34 were marching to.
1:13: jaime in an exotic looking location. probably dorne. visiting the sandsnakes mention above. plot deviation from the books.
1:20: weird mask thing. probably someone in braavos (where arya was headed). theon still suffering.
1:22: riders, most likely in dorne again.
1:23: 'knock down the statues'. possibly religious upheaval in kings landing.
1:25: arya outside the doors of the house of black and white (in braavos). later, picking up her sword (needle).
1:30ish: varys and tyrion discussing daenerys's claim to the throne. made obvious by the shot of dany's face. DRAGONS.
1:46: sandsnake kissing someone? melisandre getting her boobs out again.
1:57: the harpy being pulled down in meereen. the flashing fight scenes of people in masks could be meeren aswell, all hell broken loose?
ok, so what we (kinda) know: cersei still wants tyrion dead. jaime is (possibly) in dorne and has some sort of interaction with prince oberyns bastard daughters. varys and tyrion are in meereen, searching for daenerys. meereen is still pretty volatile, riots and whatnot. dragons are even BIGGER. sansa and petyr baelish are.. somewhere. possibly further north, judging by the landscape. arya is in braavos. jon is still fighting wildlings. melisandre is still burning stuff. that's all, until the next trailer! eeep!
