20:48Now PlayingOn today’s special edition of Outkick the Show, Clay Travis discussed the third episode of season 8 of Game of Thrones.
Clay Travis began with the ending, claiming that Arya Stark’s execution of the Night King occurred in a relatively unfulfilling manner, likening it to the Rhonda Rousey/Holly Holm or Buster Douglas/Mike Tyson fights with lots of hype and not so much fulfilling action.
Clay then surmised that the dagger used by Arya to kill the Night King was probably the same weapon used when the attempt to kill Brandon Stark took place early in the series. The Knight king was up 28-3 in the Super Bowl, said Travis, and a highly improbable comeback (sorry Atlanta Falcons fans) took place.
One element of the episode that stood out, added Travis, was the lack of dialogue for the first seven minutes. Melisandre then made an appearance, right before the epic tactical mistake by the Dothraki army to charge the army of the dead, only to result in a mass slaughter, revealed by their flaming swords quickly extinguishing.
The action then shifted to Tyrion and Sansa discussing their brief marriage and current crisis.
Clay Travis also added that the army of the dead found a way to breach the firewall by piling their bodies on top of the flames until an opening allowed the rest of the army to march through and attack Winterfell.
Clay Travis then brought up Lyanna Mormont and her memorable giant-slaying moment prior to her death, and turn into the army of the dead.
The “not today” line by Arya Stark was classic, said Travis.
Clay concluded by responding to questions and identifying the episode as focused upon pure entertainment more than exposition.
