GAME OF THRONES: Dany Comes Home In The First Season 7 Plot Synopsis; Plus New Photos From: "Dragonstone"

The latest season of HBO's critically acclaimed fantasy drama Game of Thrones is nearly upon us and today, HBO has released the plot synopses for the first three installments of the highly anticipated seventh season.

In typical Thrones fashion, the episode descriptions aren't the least bit spoiler-y nor do they reveal any potentially earth-shattering moments, but they do provide us with a pretty good idea at things to come, namely with Daenerys and Jon Snow.

Looking at each synopsis individually, the first episode will see Daenerys and her forces arrive in Dragonstone, a former House Targaryen castle, and will likely take place early in the hour as Dany and company settle into their new residence. We may even see her fully grown dragons for the first time. Meanwhile, Cersei will put a new plan in motion and Jon Snow will continue to prepare his defenses. 

The second episode looks to be another Dany-centric hour as the episode is named after her, although it could be a misdirect. We receive mention of an unexpected visitor, but it's hard to say who. Jon Snow is the obvious guess, but he seems to be busy with a revolt (that may or may not be led by his cousin Sansa and her partner-in-crime Littlefinger), which is surely unsettling. Other candidates include Jorah Mormont or Melisandre. Finally, Tyrion will add another great moment or two to his resume as plans Dany's conquest of Westeros.

The title of episode three refers to a Queen, but whether it means Daenerys or Cersei is hard to determine. Regardless, we'll see both queens engage in important events, however, it's Jamie Lannister who may steal the hour as he finally learns from his past mistakes. Could this be our first sign that Jamie, not Tyrion, is indeed the valonqar in Maggy the Frog's prophecy?

Check out all three plot synopses below:


Episode #61: “Dragonstone” (July 16)

Jon (Kit Harington) organizes the defense of the North. Cersei (Lena Headey) tries to even the odds. Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) comes home. Written for television by David Benioff & D. B. Weiss; directed by Jeremy Podeswa.

Episode #62: “Stormborn” (July 23)

Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) receives an unexpected visitor. Jon (Kit Harington) faces a revolt. Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) plans the conquest of Westeros. Written for television by Bryan Cogman; directed by Mark Mylod.

Episode #63: “The Queen’s Justice” (July 30)

Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) holds court. Cersei (Lena Headey) returns a gift. Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) learns from his mistakes. Written for television by David Benioff & D. B. Weiss; directed by Mark Mylod.

Summers span decades. Winters can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne continues.

It stretches from the south, where heat breeds plots, lusts and intrigues, to the vast and savage eastern lands, where a young queen raises an army. All the while, in the frozen north, an 800-foot wall of ice precariously protects the war-ravaged kingdom from the dark forces that lie beyond. Kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars, lords and honest men...all play the 'Game of Thrones.'

An original series based on George R.R. Martin's best-selling 'A Song of Ice and Fire' series.

We know that Daenerys and Jon are going to meet this season and that her dragons will be there when they do. With Jon finally confirmed to be a Targarayen, I want to see how the dragons, especially Drogon, take to him.

I want to see that mother[frick]er riding Drogon and [frick]ing up the Night King.

@Kr08 - We don't know if Jon's father is Rhaegar or Aerys himself. I think they were both capable of rape. Rhaegar is the most likely suspect, of course, in which case Jon is Daenerys's nephew. In the other case he's her half-brother. I'm not really sure how strong of a claim to the throne he can make by being Daenerys's nephew. In any case, I really don't believe he cares for the throne. Him and Daenerys will probably fight without having met, then meet, become allies, and Jon will support her claim to the throne in exchange for her support in claiming the North. I highly doubt they would kill off one of them in the end.

@Asturgis - rheagar took off with lyanna immediately and went straight to the tower of joy, they never stopped off at kings landing meaning aerys was never anywhere near her. rheagar is the father 100%

@Asturgis - It's Rhaegar. The book strongly hinted at it. If you don't believe me, HBO released an infographic confirming his parentage. R+L=J

@Asturgis - i can totally see jon giving up the throne and all the drama to sacrifice himself and lead his army against the walkers

@Asturgis - even as Dany's nephew, Jon has a greater claim as his father was Dany's older brother. Line of succession goes to Jon....but as you said, he probably doesnt want the throne...but I doubt he would want a foreign ruler rampaging through westeros either. I say they fight at some point.

@Kr08 - Jon won't ride Drogon, he'll probably ride Rhaegal. Dragons allow only one person to ride them, no one ese will do it while that person lives

My guess is that Jorah shows up to dragonstone in the second episode. I don't think Jon will make there until the later episodes of this season.

@DocDangerous - It's Mel who will show up at Dragonstone for sure

Mel could be that unexpected visitor.
