The second episode of Game of Thrones season 8, which is the final season of the show, may lack any shocking deaths. It may not have any visible human villains as such (Cersei and Euron Greyjoy) or even dragons or black magic. Why even the Night King and his undead army also arrive only towards the end of the episode. The episode was set completely in Winterfell and was about our brave heroes interacting with each other before the Long Night arrives. But there was one scene that stood out in the whole episode. It will leave GoT fans talking the whole week. The sex scene between Arya Stark and Gendry Baratheon. Game of Thrones 8: Arya Stark’s Sex Scene With Gendry Leaked on Twitter Ahead of Episode 2’s Official Airing (SPOILER ALERT).

We had seen Arya flirting with her old (later, separated) friend Gendry in the first episode of Game of Thrones season 8. In the second episode, Arya has a private moment with Gendry where she learns that he is a half-Baratheon (he is the bastard son of Robert Baratheon). We don't know whether it is this revelation or her long-time crush on him, but Arya invokes Gendry to have sex with him.

And for the first time in the show, Maisie Williams, who plays Arya, goes nude (well, almost...we are pretty positive she wore skin-coloured upper clothing) on the show. But it was shocking for many GoT fans, since we had seen this character grow from a little girl to a dangerous assassin lacking in emotions. Sure, her character is now 18yo in the show, but still, it felt awkward. It feels like watching our little sibling bumping uglies with a stranger. Arya Stark’s Nude Sex Scene With Gendry in Game of Thrones 8 Episode 2 Leaves Fans SHOCKED! Read Tweets (SPOILER ALERT).

However, if you think this was the first sex scene that 23-year-old Maisie Williams had performed in her acting career, you are wrong there. Maisie had performed a very bold scene in the coming-of-age 2014 film The Falling, which you can watch below:

It is also mentioned that there are more bold scenes in Maisie's latest film, Then Came You, the trailer of which you can see below:

Her sex scene in Game of Thrones is certainly a game-changer for Maisie's character Arya. Is this just a one-night stand or does she really care for Gendry is something we still can't figure out. But knowing how doomed romances are in Game of Thrones, we are hoping it is the former.
