Nothing, presumably, works up a literal (and existential) thirst quite like wrapping up work on the final episode of one of the biggest TV shows of all time. To that end, there’s a hint of inevitability to the hidden water-related Game of Thrones series finale cameos spotted by particularly eagle-eyed viewers Sunday night.

It’s not hard to find people humiliating themselves on TV these days. All you have to do is turn on CNN (zing!).
