By shortening the season down, they dont have the time to explain where the walkers got the chains, or more on Benjen who was a season 1 character for a bit.
Or where was Bran this episode??? He should have known Jon was heading north beyond the wall. Why not keep an eye on him? Then saw when they were in trouble could have had a raven sent to Dany immediately. Would have made more sense than having whats his face run all the way back and send a raven.
But ultimately this episode was very important. For the first time, Dany feels real vulnerability, and knows the true enemy is north of the wall. She has also realized that Jon is a true ally of hers, and he verbally took the knee to her as well.
The Night King now has a dragon to go with a giant and his army. Not to mention he has the ability to single handily take down the other two dragons. At first I thought the dragons would be the difference maker in destroying them. Now, everything is changed.
A side note, two dragons remain. Drogon which is Dany's main one named after Drogo. The other one is Rhaegal , named after her brother Rhaegar, who was killed by Robert Baratheon. Rhaegar has all been but confirmed to be Jon's real father, as his mother is Lyanna Stark, Ned's sister who made Ned promise something that Bran saw.
Tyrions hopes of flying a dragon just went down hill...
The Red Priest was a hard loss. but their might be an army of them coming soon as well. (next season)
