Game Of Thrones Season 7: 10 Big Questions After 'Eastwatch'

By James Hunt /

1. Will They Capture A Wight?

HBO

The point of this exercise, cooked up with Tyrion, is to capture a wight and bring it back to Westeros, in order to convince Cersei that they do exist.

Sounds simple enough, apart from the whole 'capturing a member of the undead' bit. There are a lot of wights, and not too many men on the ranging party (even allowing for plenty of redshirts), and that's before you account for the White Walkers themselves.

Still, it'd be odd if this mission did fail (though in keeping with Tyrion's form this season), and you'd expect it to succeed, albeit with casualties. Might Daenerys fly North to help, as has previously been theorised? If that is the case, then what does it mean going forwards? They can put a wight in front of Cersei, but will it really change her mind about anything?
