SPOILER ALERT
Game of Thrones season 8's episode 2 was once again filled with reunions, emotional scenes and a sex scene. The latter involved Arya Stark and Gendry.

She said, “At first, I thought it was a prank. “I was like, ‘Yo, good one.’ And [they were] like, ‘No, we haven’t done that this year.’ She also revealed that the makers asked her to decide how much skin she wants to show. She said, "David and Dan were like, ‘You can show as much or as little as you want. So I kept myself pretty private. I don’t think it’s important for Arya to flash. This beat isn’t really about that.
