You weren't the only one with some thoughts on last night's sex scene on Game of Thrones! Warning: Spoilers ahead!

The second episode of the eighth and final season of the mega-hit show featured a number of memorable moments: Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) reuniting with her one-time defender, The Hound (Rory McCann); Tormund Giantsbane's unforgettable story explaining his surname; and, of course, the knighting of Brienne of Tarth. However, nothing can compare with Arya's sex scene with Gendry (Joe Dempsie)!

And, it wasn't just viewers who had strong reactions to the moment. Williams' co-star, Sophie Turner, did too. After the episode aired, she got on Instagram to share her response to the episode's steamy scene.

"In honor of Easter, I guess Game of Thrones wanted the storyline to have a little Easter bunny hop hop hoppin' into that p***y... And that's the tea," Turner proclaimed in a bathrobe before sipping some wine.

It turns out that back when the cast first got the scripts for season eight, Turner was the one who pointed out the scene to Williams.

“I called Maisie and was like: ‘Have you read it yet?’” Turner recalled to Entertainment Weekly. “And she’s like, ‘I’m midway through episode one.’ And I’m like: This scene, this page, read it! This is awesome! She was very happy.”

Williams also confirmed this chat with EW: "Sophie said, 'Whatever you do, you have to skip to this episode, this scene first. So I just read that and it was practically all I knew about the entire season."

From the season's first episode, there were hints that a romance might blossom between Gendry and Arya. She's regularly been visiting him as he's forging dragon-glass weapons to fend off the White Walkers and their undead followers. Arya even had him make her a weapon, which appears to be a staff with Valyrian steel blades at both ends.

The amount of screen time devoted to this new weapon seems to hint that it could play an important role in the battles to come. Could their newfound romance also weigh heavily on forthcoming events? Remember, he is the illegitimate son of King Robert Baratheon… Time will tell!
