This post contains spoilers for Game Of Thrones Season 7 Episode 3 “The Queen’s Justice”.
Game Of Thrones delivered another eventful episode (our review here), and strong feelings were had on social media. Of course, the biggest development was Lady Olenna’s mic drop of a death scene, wherein she continually needled Jaime Lannister, admitted to killing Joffrey, and told Jaime to tell his sister-girlfriend what’s up. On one hand (because Jaime only has one), this means Jaime now knows Tyrion is innocent, which could lead to interesting developments later. On the other hand (which Jaime doesn’t have), it also led to some great reactions, including the Viper himself (Pedro Pascal) calling it his favorite scene:

A truly baller death, which is about the best a George R.R. Martin character can hope for (all men must die).
And of course, Twitter lit up at the meeting of Dany and Jon:

Plenty of fun was had with Dany and Jon’s titles and Davos’ introduction:
— Joseph Crack (@iamJCrack) July 31, 2017
Press Secretary Davos Seaworth
— Dave Itzkoff (@ditzkoff) July 31, 2017
Find yourself someone who talks about you the way Davos talks about Jon. #GameOfThrones
— Darin (@RuhRoweRarin) July 31, 2017
Is anybody else reading Davos in this next tweet in Billy Eichner’s voice or just me

Plenty of people wanted Jon and his Aunt Dany to hook up, as if this episode didn’t have enough incest already.

‘You better get to work, Jon Snow’ Dany needs a better catchphrase if she hopes to outshine Ygritte @GameOfThrones

Even T-Pain weighed in:

I like how Jon Snow has become the Alex Jones of Game of Thrones
— Brian Gaar (@briangaar) July 31, 2017
But Tyrion and Jon had a fun interaction, too:

And Tyrion helped Greyworm and the rest of the Unsullied with an old secret entrance Tyrion brought back into use.

Meanwhile, Sansa and Bran Stark reunited, and Old Man Bran has changed:
— Imani Gandy (@AngryBlackLady) July 31, 2017
Bran sounds like a philosophy major who just got back home after a semester abroad #GameOfThones #ThronesYall #DemThrones
— Elliot Brown (@Elliot_M_Brown) July 31, 2017
Bran: I'm the Three Eyed Raven. You've probably never heard of it
— Ser Pounce (@Ser_Pounce) July 31, 2017
Bran is so your annoying brother who came home from freshman year thinking he was deep because he dropped acid one time.
— Shelley Elwood (@ShelleyElwood) July 31, 2017
Sansa: Bran, it's great to see you!
Emo Bran: Thousands of years ago in the darkness…no understands me….#GameOfThrones
— LadyStoneheart (@LSHNorthAF) July 31, 2017
Others wanted to know what Samwell Tarly would be up to:

It turns out, Sam was reminding us all to RTFM.

And some people are still trying to decide what Euron Greyjoy looks like:
— Emily McCombs (@msemilymccombs) July 31, 2017
Euron: you know what I want, baby
Cersei: you gotta buy one more lapdance first #GamesOfThrones
— Rae Sanni (@raesanni) July 31, 2017
Euron Greyjoy is about to write a blog rant about the so-called "friend zone".#GameofThrones #NoConfederate
— Charles Clymer️ (@cmclymer) July 31, 2017
To be fair, this is a lot of fun…

Some people had theories about what future episodes have in store for us:

And finally, some offered a summary of the whole Game of Thrones experience:
