11 details you might have missed on the latest 'Game of Thrones' episode
HBO
Warning: Spoilers ahead for "Game of Thrones" season seven.
The seventh season of "Game of Thrones" charged ahead with a jam-packed episode, but as usual there were smaller moments and callbacks fans might have missed. From added subtext in Olenna's mic-drop death scene to the teasing of the mysterious catspaw blade, we're breaking down every scene.
Keep reading for a look at 11 details in "The Queen's Justice" you might have missed.
Jon Snow was startled by a dragon right after proclaiming he wasn't a Stark — foreshadowing much?
Most of the fandom knows by now that Jon Snow is actually half Targaryen. His father was Rhaegar Targaryen (Daenerys' brother) and his mother was Lyanna Stark (Ned Stark's sister). The shock of his first encounter with a dragon felt like a nod towards audience members in the know.
His blood relation to Daenerys is part of the reason fans are against the idea of a romance blossoming between Jon and Daenerys, but Targaryens are known for their incestuous relations.
The Dothraki man overseeing Jon and Davos' arrival is the same one who first brought Daenerys to his khal as a captive.
Qhono (played by Staz Nair) is the Dothraki character who took Longclaw from Jon Snow when Missandei requested the Stark emissary relinquish their weapons.
If he looked vaguely familiar, Qhono was a prominent part of Daenerys' time as a Dothraki captive on the sixth season.
Qhono has come a long way since threatening to rape Daenerys Targaryen on the sixth season — now he's one of her most trusted Dothraki soldiers. The Mother of Dragons had him on the beach when Jon and Davos arrived, and then later ordered him to show the "guests" to their chambers.
