I'll admit I was really surprised, not that some kind of attack happened --- that's easy to assume from Grey Worm and Missandei holding hands and smiling.

But in the moment itself, they were doing the usual "majestic dragons in flight" shots, and playing the same music that they always play with that. I just took it as the same kind of time-filling, mood-setting shot that they do all the time. They've done the same shot a dozen times this season alone.

But right in the middle of a crescendo of the music, Rhaegal gets shot in the chest and the music suddenly cuts off in the middle of a phrase.

It was hardly an elaborate misdirection, but it threw me.
