'Game Of Thrones' Sets Up The Moment You've Been Waiting For

Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) says he drinks and knows things, but we’re guessing he might not be privy to what he just helped set up on “Game of Thrones.”

In the second episode of Season 7, Jon Snow (Kit Harington) receives notes from Tyrion and Samwell Tarly (John Bradley) about heading to Dragonstone.

Sam tells Jon about the dragonglass he learned was there― a major driving factor for him heading there in the end ― while Tyrion uses a sentimental callback to lure Jon south.

The line Tyrion writes that seems to convince Jon is, “All dwarves are bastards in their father’s eyes.”

It’s something he said to Jon during their first chat, and it just helped set up the most anticipated meeting in “Game of Thrones” history: the meeting between Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke).

Jon leaves Sansa (Sophie Turner) in charge of the North, and he’s all like, “I’m out.” Now Fire and Ice are finally getting together. You can see a glimpse of the meeting in the Episode 3 preview:
