How the Internet Reacted to Last Night's GoT Twists & Turns
Death, betrayal, and overpriced coffee all claimed victims on the most recent episode of the HBO fantasy series.
This is your official spoiler warning for Game of Thrones, Season 8, Episode 4! If you haven't seen it yet and you wish to have a happy life, turn back right now! Right. Now.
Once again, HBO's fantastical juggernaut Game of Thrones has broken our hearts ahead of the show's penultimate episode—which promises tons fire and blood this Sunday!
Last night we saw not only the end of Dany's second dragon Rehgal, but GoT showrunners shocked fans everywhere by executing Dany's trusted advisor and best friend, Missandei.

It was, of course, too good to be true, when just two episodes ago, Missandei and Grey Worm spoke about winning the great war and returning to her home country of Naath to settle down. But Cersei and Euron Greyjoy had other plans...
On a lighter note, fans went ballistic when a visble Starbucks coffee cup that can be seen in front of Dany and Jon in Winterfell's feast hall went viral. (Although according to HBO, the coffee seen in the frame was a mistake and that that "Daenerys had ordered an herbal tea.")
