The way the trailer is cut suggests this shot is Jon leaving Dragonstone and Dany landing to stop him, attempting to bar his way with Drogon.

The key thing about this scene, though, is that this will be the first time Jon comes face to face with a dragon. And knowing that he's a Targaryen, the way Drogon reacts to him is going to be a big thing this episode (just as it appeared to be when the other dragons didn't eat Tyrion when he went to talk to them).

If there's any change in Drogon's behaviour, you'd like to think that Dany would notice and start to wonder why. You know, before she acts on the sexual tension she has with her nephew or something. Then again, it's much more likely that Dany and Jon won't find out his true lineage until the final season, because he's not riding a dragon this season.

Here Drogon reiterates Dany's request to bend the knee...
