Who rang the bells? The only people who knew that ringing the bells would stop the attack were Tyrion, Jon, Greyworm, Davos, & Jaime.
Jaime couldn't get the attention of any of the soldiers to let them know and none of the others seemed to get the chance to do so either, why did they ring the bells? The only possible explanation is that Davos sneaked in the city and was able to convince the defending soldiers or someone important to give the order for the bells to be rung. If so how will Dany deal with him?
Is it? No bells rang when the Tully's surrendered Riverrun to the Lannisters or when the High Garden surrendered or when Dany took Casterly Rock.

GOSH, WHO KNEW

>The only people who knew that ringing the bells would stop the attack were Tyrion, Jon, Greyworm, Davos, & Jaime Are you fucking retarded? Actually mentally subnormal? Every soldier in King's Landing knows it otherwise there'd be no fucking point whatsoever to even ringing the bells. You even hear some of them shouting, "Ring the bells!" before the bells ring, because they don't want to die fighting. Riverrun and High Garden aren't King's Landing you sack of moron.
"I've never known bells to mean surrender" - Davos Seaworth. King's Landing has only ever been sacked by Lannisters from the inside before, so why would they have such a well known sign for surrender?
Luis Bailey
Qyburn made Cersei a remote control for triggering the bells just before war started.
Connor Carter
>are you fucking retarded No but clearly you are, especially since major characters since season 1 have said they hate bells ringing because it signified war.
Lucas Torres
So why does Tyrion tell Jaimie who was Lord fucking Commander. The shows treats you like the brainlet you are
Luke Lopez
>why would soldiers know something relating to their profession that isn't common knowledge to everyone else Because they're fucking soldiers nigger. First set signals enemy approach, second set signals stand down (either because you've won or because you're surrendering). Believe it or not bells don't only mean one thing and one thing alone.
Aiden Bennett
Tyrion was hand of the king at the time, surely if ringing the bells was a sign of surrender, he should've handed the city to Stannis?
Varys was on the small council as well and surely should know that what the bells mean and mention it as another reason why the sound of bells is bad as it likely mean the city has fallen and his life is on the line.
Evan Mitchell
Why no bells at the start of the battle then?
Jayden Morris
Because they skipped the approach.
Leo Wood
> "I've always hated the bells, they ring for horror, a dead king, a city under siege" Varys >bell means both siege and surrender Yeah that’s not confusing as shit for your army, why do you think white flags are the universal surrender sign and not ringing bells
Ryan Peterson
>Who rang the bells? >>Who was in the city with a penchant for bell-ringing?
Dany's men and the northmen were outside the gates staring down the golden company. What did they think was about to happen? Surely that'd be the time for the bells to start?
Brody Cruz
you can signal a lot of things with bells, but yeah sure, lets just put up a white flag in the middle of a battle between buildings and a murdering psycopath with a fucking dragon, im sure theyll see it.
Anthony Jones
Bells are ringed to celebrate victory.
Chase Thompson
Did you even watch the episode?
Jason Rodriguez
Because not everyone has bells. Historically people have used horns to signal both a battle's start and a battle's end, this is just the same shit with bells. Because they've already approached by that point. The bells would have rang before that and that's how the Lannister army and the Golden Company knew to get into their positions and ready up. By the time we're shown them they're already in position.
Hunter Russell
That would mean Kings Landing surrenders quite alot. Spineless traitors/10. wouldn't have as subjects. Dany did nothing wrong.
Easton White
The psychopath was killing people with pin point precision, she would have seen the white flag which has been the universal sign for nigh 2000 years if the people from antiquity can spot it a psychopath in an attack helicopter has no excuse Second if the bell has so many meanings it confuses everyone, Dany must have thought it meant someone was getting married when she attacked compared to the white flag that everyone knows means surrender
Daniel Edwards
Varys made a comment in Season 2 that the bells rang for weddings, sieges, and other high profile events and that they never meant anything good. You're a pleb normie dickrider and should never say things matter of factly when you are unsure about them since you obviously either never watched the episode or lack the necessary autism required to retain information upon a single viewing.
John Phillips
how could she be that fucking retarded. if you ALREADY started attacking and then you hear bells you know it means surrender. if you havent started the atack and you hear bells then its up for debate
Jack Sanders
>battles end Big difference between surrender isn’t it, it’s meant to gather your forces, which you do in the beginning and battles end. Bells could mean many things don’t you remember user it could mean they were just mourning.
Easton Turner
guy at the tower in the middle of the apocalypse >oh shit, i forgot to rang the bells for the death of user, let me just use this important signaling instrument to say something completly irrelevant to the context of the situation
