After that spectacular Battle of Winterfell, one would think this episode would let us recuperate from all the action. It, however, scratched our wounds further and gave us two of the most shocking deaths this season.
Spoiler alert! Major spoilers for Game of Thrones season 8 episode 4.

The internet was not at all prepared for Rhaegal to go down like that. He fought bravely at Winterfell and yet went down just minutes before he would’ve been home — at Dragonstone.

And just as we were healing from that huge loss, the episode burnt whatever was left of our hopes.
Twitter has been deeply affected by Missandei’s sudden death.

Missandei was too pure for this world.
Missandei was the most innocent, pure character we’ve ever had, all she wanted was to support the queen that freed her from years of slavery and enjoy life with the man she loved, I have no sympathy anymore burn them all #GameofThrones pic.twitter.com/nf9DEAn8uG

To think all Missandei wanted was to go back to Naath with Greyworm and live happily ever after #GameOfThrones pic.twitter.com/ew0Apsml8U

And her end is possibly also the death of Dany’s humane empathy.
I’ve talked a lot of shit about Dany being just like her daddy but they done killed Missandei..BRING ON THE MADNESS! KILL THEM ALL!! #GameOfThrones pic.twitter.com/z9puNolNMA

Now that she’s lost so much, the Internet is backing Dany and are all for unleashing the madness to avenge her loss.
Twitter is rallying behind her to Dracarys TF out of everyone who did her wrong.
Dany lost the Dothraki (in like .5 seconds), most of the unsullied, Jorah, Rhaegal and now Missandei. Let’s not forget, she also lost Viserion The mad queeness is MORE than justified. She’s gonna ROAST Kings Landing down to the ground and we’re ALL gonna support #GameofThrones pic.twitter.com/PQadkT9Eie

She lost the Dothraki.
She lost Rhaegal.
She lost her claim to the throne.
She’s losing Jon.
And now she lost Missandei.
The Mad Queen is awaken.#GameOfThrones pic.twitter.com/DHzTypjkeh
Danny really lost Jorah, Rhaegal and Missandei in that last two episodes … she better yell the loudest Dracarys of her life next week #GameofThrones pic.twitter.com/I8Ysl07O1o

True to Missandei’s last word.
missandei’s final word was dracarys, and that’s exactly what dany is going to do to them. AS SHE SHOULD #gameofthrones pic.twitter.com/3etVnvoglN
