Can’t get anything by Game of Thrones’ fans! Unless time travel is a part of the final episode, there was a pretty obvious editing error in a scene about 17 minutes in to last night’s episode, “The Last of the Starks.”
A disposable coffee cup appeared on a table in Winterfell’s Great Hall where Daenerys Targaryen is seated, while Tormund Giantsbane toasts Jon Snow to celebrate their victory over the Night King. It appears Jon and Daenerys were the only ones oblivious to the offending cup, because viewers dismay at seeing the cup took over social media almost instantaneously.

So where did the mystery cup come from? A source close to the show tells Deadline it was not a Starbucks cup, but the internet is blaming the Seattle based franchise anyway so at least they are getting a ton of free publicity out of it.
