We Was Banking: An HBO Industry Podcast

Season 1 ends with grief, gallows humor, and one last choice that changes everything.In A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Episode 6, “The Morrow,” the dust finally settles after the Trial of Seven — and the show leans hard into what Dunk & Egg really is: a story about honor, class, consequences… and the road.This episode is basically all epilogue, but it still hits like a lance to the ribs: Baelor’s funeral, Dunk spiraling into guilt, Maekar trying (and failing) to keep control of his family, and Egg deciding whether he becomes another spoiled prince… or something better.🔥 What Brandon & Chanel Break Down in This Finale⚰️ Baelor’s death hanging over Ashford Meadow like a curse😈 Lyonel Baratheon going full “Laughing Storm” — funny, furious, and brutally honest🍏 Raymun Fossoway’s “green apple” glow-up (and that sweet, tragic marriage detail)👑 Valarr and Maekar reacting to Dunk like he’s a walking omen🧠 Dunk’s imposter syndrome: “Everyone around me gets hurt”🥃 Daeron’s surprisingly key speech: why Aerion wasn’t always a monster… and why Egg could become one🗡️ Egg nearly crossing a point of no return with Aerion🏕️ Dunk’s final decision: no princes, no castles — just the road🧾 The funniest lore mic drop of the season: “There are nine kingdoms, Ser.”And yes — we talk about that big swing:📌 The show’s choice to make Egg’s departure feel more like an act of rebellion than a royal arrangement… and whether the final scene undercuts the perfect ending that came right before it.🧠 Themes That Hit Hard🎧 Listen to Brandon & Chanel – WE WAS WATCHING PODCAST🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Tx2WCy...🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...📲 Twitter: @WeWasWatching📸 Instagram: @wewaswatching🔔 Subscribe:    / @wewaswatching  🔍 SEO KeywordsA Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Episode 6 recapThe Morrow ending explainedDunk and Egg finale breakdownPrince Baelor death explainedMaekar and Dunk sceneEgg true identity AegonTrial of Seven aftermathA Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Season 1 finaleHouse of the Dragon spinoff recapGeorge RR Martin Dunk and Egg explained#AKOTSK #DunkAndEgg #GameOfThrones #HouseOfTheDragon #Westeros #HBO #EpisodeRecap #SeasonFinale #GeorgeRRMartin
