Game of Thrones Season Six **SPOILERS WITHIN**

I too expect Jaime to kill Cersei. Daenarys' alliance will attack King's Landing, and Cersei will go mad and decide to burn everything with wildfire rather than accept defeat. It will be a repeat of the events with Aerys the Mad King.

She's Queen because she was Queen before, the Queen Mother, and since she pretty much killed every potential rival Michael Coreleone style.

I've been waiting so long for Walder Frey to croak!! When he was eating the pie and asking for his sons, I knew he was eating them in the pie. I never forgot Bran's story about The Rat Cook the episode after the Red Wedding. Some lord offered his house guest salt and bread and later killed them. That was a big no no in Westeros religion. So his cook killed his kids and baked them into a pie and did a reverse Scott Tenorman on him before killing him. Glad Walder got what was coming to him! I'm glad Arya's back to making progress on her list. Ser Ilan Payne, Cersi and The Mountain hopefully will follow. You think she'll go back to Winterfell to have a family reunion?

Penguin did the same thing with his step-siblings in Gotham, feeding them to their mother, his wicked step-mother. Who was inspired by whom, I wonder?

Cersei: Queen on Unintended Consequences. Does everything up to mass murder for the sake of her son, and, poof.

And we end with an invasion fleet with air support! W00t!!!

This show has gotten MUCH more exciting since they passed the books.

Wow, that episode was a game-changer! Cersei effectively deals with both her Tyrell-issue and her Religious-fanatic-issue in one HUGE explosion!

So much potential for justice-boners in the show, as well. Walder Frey getting his come-uppance at the hands of Arya. The Septa finally feeling Cersei's wrath. Even Littlefinger's idea to promote Sansa and essentially cast off Jon Snow going awry due to the Northmen...

Westeros is well and truly fucked, I think, even before considering that Dany is finally heading West. All the major houses are considerably weaker, if not dead, than they were at the start of the series. Consider:

• Lannisters - Tywin dead, Tyrion basically exiled, All of Cersei's children now dead...
• Tyrells - The Queen of Thorns is all that's left of them.
• Starks - Still mostly all dead or scattered around various places
• Arryn - Robin is weak, unmarried, without heirs, and easily controlled by Littlefinger.
• Martell - all dead, replaced by the "bad poosy"
• Baratheon - all dead
• Greyjoy - Balon dead, house divided against itself
• Tully - all dead, except for Edmure, who is (was?) controlled/imprisoned by the Freys
• Frey - Walder dead, his oldest two sons as well.

Hell, conquering Westeros ought to be a cakewalk for Dany next season, especially with all her forces and the Dorne/Reach forces allying with her.

Oh and yeah, she's queen because she's the wife of the late king, whose heirs had died. Not sure if reality supports that, but it makes sense in fantasy land.

So where has Ghost been?

Ghost is too expensive. All those dragons, ships, and blowing up a building ate up the budget.

Also I just realized that we all believed that Howland Reed and Ned Stark where the only two people at the Tower of Joy to walk away alive but that's not true. There were three women in the room with Lynna Stark. Those women know the truth as well. I don't think Ned would kill them. He's not that type of person. It does explain though how he got a wet nurse so fast. One or more of those women were already there for that.

Whose really going to stop her?

Most of the leaders of the great houses in Westeros are dead. From the war or her church bomb.

The leaders in the North don't give a crap since they are back to a king of their own.

Dorne doesn't care. Surprised they just didn't break off and declare themselves a kingdom of their own like they used to be.

You'd think they could have used the money they'll save on paying actors going forward.

... and once again Arya and Diana Rigg rule them all. PERIOD.

Cersei pulling a Milton was absolutely brilliant. I didn't think she was crazy enough to do it. And now with Tommen gone, her reign is going to be insane.

Great episode. Really excited for the next season.

i'm pretty sure cersei won't make it to the second episode. she died in this one and jamie will probably send her body after her soul in the next.

on the other hand that's when dany will arrive and he might have something else to do.

“All warriors are cold warriors, don’t you agree Jon Snow?”

Best future Star Trek villain ever!

Oh, and is anyone else sick to death of Samwell Tarly?
He's the goddamn Flounder of GOT.

So, not the best day for theologians. Sansa will shortly try to find out whether a cousin is considered incest in her world. And Danny is out to win herself the worst prize ever.

Did anyone bother to check how long dragons can fly without landing?

And do I remember correctly that even back in season two, the Small Council realised they hardly had enough food for an average winter?

Oh, and I will miss Marjory. Not least because I wanted to find out what her plan was when she handed the Queen of Thorns the rose without thorns.

Also because OMG gorgeous.

Yes. Mostly that.

Will Littlefinger encourage a rivalry between Sansa and Jon? When Sansa notices Cersei on the Iron Throne, along with Daenerys and Yara Greyjoy, is she going to accept that Ned Stark's true born should step aside for a bastard, just because she's a woman?

Marriage between first cousins is normal in Westeros. In Season 4, Lysa Arryn planned to wed Sansa to Robyn. Also, Tywin and Joanna Lannister (mother of Cersei, Jaime, and Tyrion) were first cousins.

But do we know that Rhaegar is the father? He sure doesn't look like a half Targaryen. He looks like the description of all of Robert Baratheon's bastard children in Jon Arryn's notebook.

If he is Rhaegar's son, then that would make Danny his aunt. Then there goes my theory about a direction this thing is going.

Neither the Tyrell nor the Lannister forces in the area would need a house leader to stop her. Cersei had no forces at her disposal at all and no one with any forces who was personally loyal to her and would back her move. An angry mob could have stopped her, and it wouldn't have had to be a big mob.

Robert's rebellion lasted a year and didn't start until some time after Lyanna was "kidnapped." And like us, Lyanna knew how Robert would feel about potential Targaryen claimants to the throne lying about.

The name wasn't mentioned on-screen, but anyone other than Rhaegar being Jon's father would be a massive cheat.

Rhaegar is the father.

Who else would it be?

Rhaegar and Lynna loved each other. He didn't kidnap her. She ran off with him.

That's the real secret of the Tower of Joy.

She's still a queen. She has the Kingsguard with her.

And why would the Lannister forces stop her? She's their leader after all.

And the Tyrell forces, what's left of them after Olena left, are left leaderless. They aren't going to do a thing without orders from someone. If they tried they'd have to fight the Lannister army.

Why are you getting so worked up over this? Any rational person knows her reign will be short. Very short. I'm betting she that she doesn't make it past the 2nd episode next season.

Her outfit in this episode, combined with her lethal politics, would make her the perfect Romulan villain.

It took me a long while, long long while until I could like Sansa.

Goes back to the first season. When she doesn't back Arya and instead sides with her husband to be Joefry over the whole practice sword on riverbank thing.

Throw in her forsaking family leading to the death of a direwolf....

Long time.

I'm thinking they are setting up for her redemption. Come full circle. Realize husbands to be are nothing, family is everything.


Wasn't Milsendra just banished to the South? What if the Wall falls and everyone has to retreat to the neck (Reeds anyone?), it's possible Jon could end up in the South before this is all over.


DGAF Cersie... will be glorious to watch, but I feel her candle burns at both ends.


Can see Jamie doing it. Prophecy said someone younger and more beautiful would kill her. He was second born of the twins (why do we know this?) and as Bronn made quite clear this episode he is quite handsome. Plus he has this whole about not liking blowing the city up thing.


Is Edmure Tully now in charge of the Riverlands?

I think Arya will kill Cersei, IIRC she's on her list, and it doesn't need to be her face she's wearing.

Varys got about quickly. I could assume he met the fleet on the way back from Dorne though. One thing GoT could improve on is the sense of time.

They're magic.

Plus, we've not had a biology lesson on them, could be that they're all exoskeleton, their insides giant swim bladders filled with hydrogen as both fuel and to make them lighter than air when filled, and the whole structure held together with cartilage. Or they could do into albatross mode. Who knows? Fantasy requires a level of suspending disbelief, so as long as things keep an internal logic, then dragons can fly half a million miles per marmalade sandwich for all we know...
