SPOILER ALERT**

"Here's your crown your majesty!"

They show Barristan on the stone table in the preview for next week. I have a feeling that he may play some sort of role in Tyrion joining Dany. Initially Jorah will present Tyrion as a gift to Dany in order to rejoin her cause. I'm wonder who will convince her that Tyrion can help. The only other person is Barristan.…

She's a poor leader for empowering the Sparrows just to get back at Margerey. Still, the whole religious thing is coming out of nowhere for non-book readers. They should have had some back story about the religion in say seasons 3 and 4 just to prepare viewers.

I don't think Dorne in general will have a big role in the series. In the book there's more going on with the Marcella plot. In the show they just want to kill her. I have a feeling they will only have Dorne for this season to wrap up Jamie's redemption plot. They haven't featured them enough for anything more.…

Barrastan's death was a bit shocking, but only because I've read the books. He didn't do much in the show, so to the viewer I don't think it was that big of a deal- if he's even dead.

They were way outnumbered, also they are out of their element as Daario told Grey Worm last week. They are strong in battle not in the dark corridors of Mereen.

That's a great point. I've still been trying to figure out what Littlefinger knows and why he would risk Sansa. My first thought was that he doesn't value her at all and is literally just using her to gain more power. My other thought is that he's unaware of what Ramsey really is and his plan to put her in control…

I was a bit confused too but thought it was Moat Cailin. They didn't do a good job identifying by name, but it didn't look like Winterfell.

I think it's def The Mountain.

I'm wondering if they'll just rewrite Asha/Yara all together. Maybe condense Victarion and Euron into her?

She's at the Vale. Being at the Vale. Doing nothing much at the Vale. HA. GRRM released a chapter from TWOW about Sansa/Alayne but I didn't read it.

I think Brienne is going to replace Asha in book 5. She'll be the one to cross paths with Stannis.

The beheading of Slint was fantastic. Even better than the books. I loved how Jon briefly paused and considered mercy, which is a great parallel to his first encounter with Ygritte. He has a moment of reflection and considers how the Half Hand died because he showed mercy. This time he doesn't make the same mistake…

I was more surprised that they downplayed his offer to be legitimized. He seriously considers it in the books until he realizes that he'll always be a bastard.

I believe Sam will just stay at the wall at this point.

He's the cause for most of this mess anyway, so I wouldn't put it past him.

I give the show-runners credit for this- Brienne is such a dumb ass and even though they've changed her story up, they've kept her "honor before strategy or intelligence" fully in tact.

Um… wow. Great points all around. I'd love for Littlefinger to be behind the necklace. That would be AWESOME!!

So in essence another character will die due to their devotion to honor. COOL!!
