A title like this doesn't bode well for Ellaria and her daughter. I predict

Spoiler:
Cersei makes Ellaria watch her daughter die before killing her or giving her to the mountain or something as terrible. Seems like something she would do .

Do you think that the "Shame!" lady is still alive?

Jerome Flynn credit in the opener. Bronn!

So I guess Euron was wearing knife proof armor after all.

Not nearly enough Bronn, but damn_good otherwise.

Well, can't say this was a filler episode. Team Targeryn has suffered some setbacks to say the least. Nice to see Mycroft Holmes getting some work!

Loved Olenna dropping the bomb on Jamie that she was responsible for Joffrey's death.

Yea, she is losing just enough to:

A: Get rid of all the minor characters.
B: Force her hand at asking Jon Snow for help.
C: Prolonging the downfall of the Lannisters.

Some killer qoutes from this episode though ...

"Well, I got a book, and followed the directions."
"I don't really know. I was drunk for most of it."
"This is Jon snow. He's king of the north!"

Interesting though .... Jamie is the one that always had Tyrion's back. That confession about Joffrey might be the thing that turns things against Cersei.

It was cool to see Mark Gatiss back, I'm a big League of Gentlemen fan.

Hated the Casterly Rock play-by-play from Tyrion. Those battle scenes could have been done away with completely and just shown the aftermath like the Whispering Wood scene or other battles from the lesser budgeted early seasons. Other than that a solid episode with some terrific character moments throughout. Intriguing stuff with Varys, Melisandre, Bran, etc. Also glad the Lannisters' debt to the Iron Bank hasn't simply been forgotten and done away with; it was good to see Gatiss return from season 4.

Diana Rigg was awesome on this show. What a boss way to go out. She will be missed.

Was Mark Gatiss' voice dubbed? I can usually pick his voice out of a crowd, and that did not sound like him at all.

It's rare that I laugh out loud at GoT but this did it.

.
Don't forget :
"You're telling me that the woman who murdered my mother, father and brother is dangerous? Thank you for your wise counsel"

I did perk up when Olena wondered out load why Tywin never invaded High Garden at first sign of money trouble. I'm pretty sure that will be significant going forward....

Apparently there were only four people left in Dorne b/c taking out Ellaria Sand and the Sand snakes defeated the entire Dorne army, which should have been fresh and ready b/c they entirely sat out the Clash of Kings.

Surprised Randyll Tarly hasn't gone to Old Town to get his sword back yet.

I thought part of the issue is they needed ships to get the Dorne army to in position and Euron took those out.

I dont feel bad for Ellaria or the Sand Snakes at all. They did the one thing Oberyn hated most in their desire for vengeance.

Really wish there was more interaction between Jon and the dragons. Would have been interesting to see one land near him and act curious.
