Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 5 Teaser Previews the Daenerys-Cersei Face-Off

Spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4, “The Last of the Starks, below.

Another episode of Game of Thrones, another battle for which to gird your loins. The teaser for next week’s episode of Game of Thrones (the second-to-last episode ever, mind you) features a lot of your faves looking stoically into the distance, the chaos of war creeping ever closer to snatch them by the necks and carry them off to eternity in the Seven Hells.

Here’s Tyrion eyeing a mad mournful Daenerys with suspicion:

And Cersei looking the happiest we’ve seen her since the death of her third child:

And Jon realizing death is nigh:

These very dark, grainy stills show some sort of confrontation conversation between Dany and Tyrion:

Here’s Greyworm looking vengeful (RIP Missandei, you were too good for this world).

Oh, and here’s Euron being truly despicable, with some audio of a dragon scream for good measure:

In case you forgot, the latest episode of Game of Thrones (Season 8 Episode 4, “The Last of the Starks) set up next week’s episode for an epic showdown. Cersei and Euron murdered Rhaegal and Missandei, setting up the Dragon Queen for a shamefully predictable turn to villainy; Jaime had sex with Brienne before making the despicable choice to leave her and return to King’s Landing to fight for Cersei; and finally, Sansa and Arya learned that Jon is the real heir to the Iron Throne, information they will certainly use to undermine Daenerys when the time comes. So much fun, so little time.

Game of Thrones Season 8 airs Sundays at 9 p.m. EST on HBO.
