    Just a few thoughts and facts.

    No sign of Padan Fain (unless it was super subtle)

    Large consensus says he’s a specific person at the table at the Social.

    Turak v. Rand is going to be epic

    Awwww yeah. My second favorite part of the trailer behind “cuddle time”.

    Rand meeting Siuan (so glad we’re getting this scene!) - does Lan teach him Cat Crosses the Courtyard?

    I really hope so. I missed this until my third watch and hearing someone say “wow, that’s one cocky swagger” when it clicked exactly what it was.

      Of course, how did I not think of that! Thanks, I was thinking about Bors and some of the other characters that might have been there, but totally forgot Fain. Time to zoom in on that shot to see some more details, lol.

      My latest thought is: what scenes shown in the trailer are more TDR than TGH? That scene near the end with Mat driving his spear into something (or someone) is immediately followed by an explosion at what looks like a castle or fortress - if those shots are actually connected, then this is very reminiscent of his activities near the end of TDR. But other than that, most every scene I recognized looked to be from TGH (which is not necessarily a bad thing, since I think TGH has more television-friendly moments in it throughout than TDR does).

        It definitely feels a lot more TGH to me. I think we’re only getting a nod to TDR and some Aiel in Falme.

        I’ll live, though. It’s still gonna be great.
