  • SPOILER ALERT: Daenerys went through it last night on Game of Thrones, enduring the deaths of both Missandei and Rhaegal.

  • Fans think Dany is about to turn into the Mad Queen and kill literally everyone thanks to her facial expression in the last moments of the episode.


Spoilers below. You’ve been warned.

Hey, are you okay? BECAUSE I’M NOT, THANKS FOR ASKING. Watching Sunday night’s episode of Game of Thrones was more emotionally exhausting than going through a breakup, mostly because (SPOILER ALERT!) both Missandei and Rhaegal were killed thanks to Cersei and Euron being giant assholes, to put it bluntly. And in case you didn’t notice, Daenerys did not...handle it...well.

Understandably, Daenerys was devastated that her second reptile-child was killed, not to mention traumatized that her most faithful friend and companion Missandei was beheaded as a direct result of Cersei and Euron’s cruelty. And now Game of Thrones fans are convinced she’s going to turn into the Mad Queen-aka the female version of her infamous father, Aerys II Targaryen, commonly known as the Mad King due to his penchant for murdering innocent people.

It’s already clear that Daenerys is losing the trust of both Tyrion and Varys. And if she truly turns into the Mad Queen and kills all the innocent people in King’s Landing, it seems like the show would be setting the stage for Jon Snow to be a legitimate candidate for the Iron Throne. Then again, Daenerys has been through a ton of rough moments in her life and managed not to morph into a tyrant, so let’s not write her off completely, kay?
