Warning: spoilers ahead for Sunday’s episode of “Game of Thrones,” “No One.”

This week’s “Game of Thrones” was packed with game-changing reunions, and fans learned whether Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) survived an attack at the end of the last episode.

But which moments had fans talking the most?

Social-media monitoring platform Brandwatch found more than 51,000 “Thrones”-related mentions on Twitter during the one-hour episode and identified the scenes when conversation peaked.

Here are the five most talked-about moments from the latest “Game of Thrones” episode:

5. Tommen bans trials by combat just ahead of his mother Cersei’s trial. This also possibly killed the chances of a popular fan theory, Cleganebowl, from happening.

9:29 p.m. ET — More than 1,100 mentions. 

4. “Thrones” is on! Once again, fans celebrated that the episode was beginning.

9:05 p.m. ET — More than 1,200 mentions.

3. Cersei chooses violence against the Faith Militant.

9:17 p.m. ET — about 1,320 mentions.

2. The Hound delivers his revenge on the men who destroyed the sept that took him in. Many of the tweets were reactions to his line, “You’re s— at dying.”

9:12 p.m. ET — About 1,380 mentions.

1. Arya is victorious over The Waif. Many reactions were driven by Arya’s declaration: “A girl is Arya Stark of Winterfell, and I’m going home.”

9:59 p.m. ET — About 1,390 mentions.
