It's all very inspiring - I wouldn't be surprised to see this speech played on some Jumbotron at a hockey arena when the home team is down a goal late in the third period and is trying to get the crowd hyped. Unleash the fury, Khaleesi.

A slight decline after last week's barnstormer of an episode, but this one has some fun to offer.

We may have ice zombies to worry about, but, when listening to Dany speak, it's easy to forget there is anything more important than her quest for the Iron Throne.
