HBO has released a new clip from the final season of Game of Thrones. It’s only a few seconds long, but when have we fans needed more than that to hope on the hype train?
Daenerys Targaryen arrives at Witnerfell and exchanges pleasantries with Sansa Stark, all while Jorah Mormont, Brienne of Tarth and Jon Snow look on. The internet promptly exploded:

Even HBO reacted to itself:
And just what did Sansa say to Daenerys? “Winterfell is yours, your Grace.” That’s pretty much what Sansa’s dad Ned Stark said to Robert Baratheon when that king visited Winterfell in the first episode of the series:
Here’s a picture-in-picture image so you can see just how Sansa and Dany are reacting to each other:
A LOT of fans watched this and concluded that Sansa, who spent the first several seasons of the show suffering under the thumbs of various noble asshats and the last couple making sure she was in charge of her own life, did not seem eager to turn over control of Winterfell to this platinum-haired stranger from across the Narrow Sea. A sampling of their reactions:

Basically, it’s agreed: you could cut the tension in this scene with a dull butter knife:
Others focused more on Daenerys’ role in this meet-and-greet…
…while still others wondered about absent friends:
It looks like battle lines are being drawn, but there are those wonder: can’t we all just get along?
But not many!
Of course, Sansa and Daenerys aren’t the only characters in this promo. Everyone notice Brienne hanging out in the back?
Naturally, different people interpreted Brienne’s look differently:

And we can’t forget about Ser Jorah Mormont, just happy to be here:
Jorah’s like “Shit. I gotta dress for this weather again.”

Finally there’s Jon Snow. As with Brienne, how fans interpret his look changes from person to person:
Ahhh, Sansa is not happy and once again Jon Snow knows nothing
