Game of Thrones season 8 episode 2 recap: The stakes are high, the sexual tension is higher     – CNET

TBH I can't even get curls that good, and I'm not living in a stone castle in Westeros.

Helen Sloan/HBO

Another episode of Game of Thrones is behind us, and you know what that means: it's time to lock the front door and heat up some of Mama's eatin' snacks. We've got an episode of event television to watch!

Season 8, episode 2, titled "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms," aired on Sunday, and while we didn't get any action on the battlefield, the action was on for young and old in Winterfell.

First things first. If you haven't seen this week's episode, here's everything you need to know on how to stream it. If you didn't watch last week's episode or you plain can't remember it (I know, it's been a tough week), you may want to check out everything that happened in the season 8 premiere (TL;DR it was Westeros reunion soup and Bran was a super creeper).

Also, head here if you want to watch the trailer for next week's episode.

Now, sound the spoiler horn and get comfortable, because just like Daenerys' pervy pet dragon, we've got some watching to do!

Episode 2 recap: Quivering in antici… pation

The season 8 premiere brought everyone back to Winterfell, but episode 2 set the stakes. The battle with the White Walkers is close, but still hasn't begun. The day is about to dawn, but we're still in blackest night. And what's the perfect way to sum up that anticipation?

Sexual. Tension.

The episode opened where the premiere left off: Jaime is in Winterfell and everyone kinda remembers him as a jerk. He's rocked up in Winterfell's lunch room to appear before Daenerys and, to be honest, she's kinda TO'd because Jaime's sister promised an army that never came. (Dany will also later chastise Tyrion for not anticipating Cersei's betrayal and being a clueless Hand).

But back in the lunch room, Jaime reminds us he's not exactly stoked with Cersei right now and that despite those family ties, he'd rather fight for the living than stay shacked up in Kings Landing with a woman who's getting sketchier by the minute. "This goes beyond loyalty," he says. "This is about survival."

Brienne vouches for Jaime, Sansa vouches for Brienne, and because Sansa is wearing a pretty mean leather corset right now, everyone decides the older Stark sis is legit. OK Jaime, you can sit with us. But not before we establish that Brienne might have some complicated feelings toward you.

Sexual tension: 1 out of 10.

Hot stuff, coming through

Gendry's hitting the Dragonglass and Arya would hit that too.

HBO

Oooh here we go! We're down in the forge and Gendry is smithing the life out of that Dragonglass. Winterfell needs weapons, and thankfully Gendry's got two guns ready for the job. After her reunion with Gendry last week, Arya is back and she's thirsty … for knowledge. She wants to know how the White Walkers fight and what they'll need to do to succeed in battle. In another classic "Oh, I've done some growing up of my own" move, Arya throws Dragonglass knives at a post and Gendry is here for it.

But we didn't come back to Winterfell for sexy times and there's other tension to be had here. So, having just arrived in the North, Jaime is off to do the rounds.

He reunites with Bran in the godswood to talk about that nasty defenestration business from season 1. Bran's not too fussed because in case you hadn't heard, he got into some pretty heavy raven stuff at tree college, so y'know, he can see through time now.

Bran is set to play a pivotal role in the coming battle.

Helen Sloan/HBO

Speaking of time, is it that late? Sorry Bran, Jaime has to be somewhere else. Off to chat with Tyrion in the battlements in fact (which have now been kitted out with Dragonglass spikes). They have a bit of "sisters, ammiright?" banter before Jaime notices Brienne on the field below. He jogs down to pledge to fight with her in battle, but the reunion he hoped for is a little lost in Brienne's confused cry of "We have never had a conversation last this long without you insulting me. Not once!"

Jaime, you're going to have to do better than that to woo this one.

Sexual tension: 4 out of 10.

Setting up for battle

Despite all these long brooding chats, the White Walkers are still taking their sweet-ass time to get to Winterfell. So Dany decides to pop in to mend bridges with Sansa. Sansa is frankly concerned Jon is a little dragon-crazy and isn't going to make sound decisions with Daenerys around. Dany reiterates she's all about supporting Jon's family (it's easy when it's your family too!) but it's clear her love for Jon clearly won't get in the way of her thirst for the throne.

Gilly is definitely the heart of the show.

Helen Sloan/HBO

Meanwhile, around Winterfell we've still got a lot of battle prep going on. Ser Davos is feeding Northerners onion soup and Gilly is gathering the women and children to wait out the war in the crypt. Odds are that one of these kindnesses will be paid off with a brutal death that fans will cry heartily over.

In the war room, it's time to devise a plan to defeat the dead. Bran reveals that while he was in tree college he got a sweet tattoo and turns out it attracts the Night King. So they decide to use Bran as a bait to lure the dead, figuring that it'll keep him and his weird crow chat out of their faces for a bit either way.

Sexual tension: 5 onions out of 10.

The night is dark and full of sexy times

The Night King has apparently only just gotten into his Uber and is still, like, at least a few hours away. So Winterfell has time to kill.
