I suppose that's why we don't see how Jon turns himself in or Grey Worm discovers that he killed Dany.
Personally after episode 5 I thought Grey Worm had slaughtered the surrendering solders in a fit of rage but in the finale he says Dany had instructed him to kill them all, presumably before the battle, something I believe Shrunk called earlier in the thread.
With that in mind I see no reason to think that Grey Worm would be prone to acting irrationally. The Unsullied are if nothing else very poised.
Did you not see Greyworms facial expressions during these last two episodes? He seemed to act more out of (grief stricken) rage, than coolly following orders.
I did. As I mentioned in my previous posts and earlier in the thread I say him acting out in rage.
I agree that those actions don't exactly square up with him being able to remain poised and act rationally. Then again I know many real people who will fly off the handle and act on pure emotion in one moment then in another appear completely rational, so...
The point still stands that it would have been stupid for Grey Worm to immediately kill Jon. Whether you want to believe he had the capacity to act intelligently or even rationally is open to interpretation I suppose.
Of course it wasn't the smart thing to do, neither was threatening to start another war if the other lords did not let him kill John....
That would be dumb, if that were how it actually went down.
