I love that we got a parallel to this scene:
In the very next episode:
In both scenes, Dany is feeling threatened but only in the 8x01 scene does she make a threat. In 8x01, she's feeling threatened by Sansa's disrespect and makes the not-so-subtle threat to Jon. In 8x02, she's feeling threatened by finding out Jon is actually a Targaryen and this threatens her claim to the IT. In 8x01, the Dothraki garnered Dany's attention while Jon watched her. In 8x02, the horn blasts signalling the arrival of the WW garnered Jon's attention while Dany watched him.
Not only does this signal the beginning of Targbowl happening (well, it's actually already been happening but with neither of them knowing it was actually that) but it also links the two threats: Dany and the NK (& their armies).
And it absolutely cements yet another Jonsa parallel. This connects their characters but also them together as a ruling entity. Sansa is running Winterfell when Jon & Dany arrive. As if we didn't get confirmation enough from seeing last season and everything in 8x01 & 8x02 to confirm this fact, Dany confirms it herself in dialogue in the library scene between her and Sansa. Jon is now confirmed to be Rhaegar's son, the last male heir for House Targaryen with a claim for the IT, where previously despite being a bastard, he had been named King in the North. While Dany didn't like Cersei sitting on the IT and wanted her removed asap, Jon and Sansa were the real threats she was facing. Jon and Sansa were loved and respected by the people (together and separately), chosen by the people to lead them, and Dany does not have any of that love or respect or people choosing her and this is what pisses her off, what she feels most threatened by. Cersei was simply an obstacle for her, nothing more. And that is why she decides to burn KL when the people are not crying out for their "true queen" in 8x05 but to be saved from her.
Jon and Sansa were the ones she was most threatened by so it makes absolute sense that when she arrives at Winterfell, her devolution picks up its pace and her true self starts to show.

Well, I re-watched Game of Thrones with one of my cousins. I didn't speak at all about Jonsa during S6, I decided that I would only ask after the parentage reveal. My cousin is not the average viewer, she is brilliant and she can immediately spot themes in the show. She even theorized that Jon Snow was Lyanna and Rhaegar's back in S2.
When I told her about the possibility of Jonsa, she told me that she did find the romantic tension in their scenes. She spotted it during the reunion hug, but didn't think much because she thought that this could just be the natural reaction of people who was apart for so long. Then she began to be confused because she remembered that they weren't even close, she told me she was a little bit weirded out by their scenes together (especially the cloak scene.) She remembered Ygritte and Jon's fascination with red-heads. She knew the Starks were not Targaryens or Lannisters to have sibling-incest and she was a bit terrified that the Jon and Sansa would go that route. So when the parentage reveal happened, she was happy that her theory was right and she was stoked about Jonsa because they made sense.
In S7, when the JxD scenes were happening I was really nervous. I told her the marketing about JxD being the Great Romance of the series. After S7, she told me that she didn't believe the "Great Romance" BS. She told me that she can see it in Jon's eyes that whenever he was around Sansa there are so many emotions of love, guilt, etc., but when he's around Daenerys his eyes seem lifeless. I told her about the Political Jon theory and she was able to connect that to what Sansa said about "being smarter than Robb and father."
She's not a Daenerys worshipper, she likes the character but she doesn't see her as a hero saviour goddess like most fans. Staring from S1 when Viserys was killed, she was already suspicious of the character. We talked about her ruling capabilities a lot during the seasons, and we pointed out how she never left the pyramid (in rare instances of public trials/executions or fighting pits), and that she doesn't understand the people and its customs. My cousin was disgusted by the former slaves wanting to be back to slavery, for her this just shows how incompetent Daenerys is at ruling. She likes how Daenerys can handle herself around men, but hates her overall attitude. We agreed that the "battle" in 7x04 was a massacre instead of a battle. We hated how she burned the food despite Daenerys needing that food for her army. She concluded that she wanted Cersei Lannister defeated, but she didn't want Daenerys to have the throne.
For Sansa, she was annoyed by her during the earlier seasons but my cousin came to respect her since S6 of the show. She was really proud of her character development and found her to be a capable ruler. For Jon Snow, she thought that he was a good man who always chose duty over love (over Robb and Ygritte). She has always liked his character as he was ascending to his leadership role. She really wanted Jon and Sansa to rule the 7K in the end.
During S7-S8, I pointed out that they will conceal a lot of the POVs particularly Jon. She noticed the weird cuts during the 8x01 reunion scene, and the weird love triangle framing. Since it was clear to her who Jon loved in S6-S7, she had no doubt about Jon's answer in the office argument. She lived for the drama in the office scene with jealous Sansa being too obvious about her feelings. During the "Who manipulated whom?" scene, she noticed that Daenerys only came for Jon and not for the good of the 7K. The manipulation theory solidified after that conversation between Sansa and Daenerys. She was entertained in watching Jon's facial expressions around Daenerys, she laughed at his disgusted face that time in the war council in 8x02 when Daenerys spoke.
When the Long Night episode happened, she hated that montage sequence. She thought that it was too long, particularly the part with the NK and Bran having stare down. We laughed so hard because one shot each of Bran and NK staring was enough, we wondered why did they have to repeat the same shots again.
She noticed the drama during the great hall celebrations. It confirmed that Sansa was in love with Jon, and that Daenerys knows it. But she was so happy that Jon turned around when Sansa left, and didn't look at Daenerys again. She hated how Daenerys kept on invading Jon's space and making him uncomfortable. She thinks Jon's "My queen" etc. has the same energy as Sansa's "My beloved Joffrey."
She was happy about Jon being a candidate for the 7k throne because she thinks he deserves it. She hated how Arya and Sansa's reaction to the parentage reveal was concealed since she was really excited about that moment. My cousin wasn't that surprised about the burning of KL, because she knew who Daenerys was. She wasn't surprised about Jon killing Daenerys, but she was weirded out by the dialogue during the throne room with "girl who can't count to 20." She thinks that came out of nowhere.
For the ending, she was surprised about Bran being King. Although Tyrion had points about Bran, she really expected that they would have chosen Sansa. She was really mad about Jon Snow being posted back to the Wall, because she thought that NW has no more purpose because NK dead and Free Folk are friends now. When she saw Grey Worm leaving, she said that Jon could just go home any time he wants once they leave. During the goodbye scene, she expected like a kiss between Jon and Sansa. She was really hoping for it, and got disappointed. I told her that the name of the last book that this season was based on was "A Dream of Spring" and that the ending wouldn't show the happy ending but a hope for a happy ending. I pointed out the last look between Jon and Sansa, and she is still pissed that the two people who saved 7K wasn't happy.
When we were watching the montage of the Starks, she noticed that Sansa was unhappy sitting in her throne. She was happy that Jon acknowledged Ghost again, but she was unhappy that he was going beyond the wall. She thinks that Jon deserves the throne and have lady wife and kids. She really wants a sequel just to see these two happy. She thought Arya had a good ending, but she wants the Starks to stay together!!
Overall, she thinks that the show was good. She noticed the decline in dialogue quality and quantity, and hated whenever there is a scene that pandered too long. She liked that the creators managed to create parallels from the last seasons, but she hated how they had to hide the point of views of characters in the story for shock value. She hated the ending for Cersei, Jaime, Brienne, Bronn (because he doesn't deserve it), Jon, Sansa, Bran, and Tyrion. She hated how S7 and S8 was shorter, and hated how they focused on Daenerys when the Starks were the heart of the story.

I really really wish Daniel Portman's version of Jenny of Oldstones was available for purchase. I LOVE his voice.
I love Grey Worm and Missandei's relationship so much. It's definitely a one of a kind relationship in the show.
Makes it even more heartbreaking with what's to come.
And I love how Jorah is shown getting ready to fight the WW (that haven't shown up yet) while Dany goes looking for Jon in the Crypt, uninvited. Heartbreaking.
