Unless she's not around to see it because he's killed her first.

At the very least, I thought Dany was going to bring up that possibility.

I was thinking that maybe Bran gave Arya the dagger because he saw her using it to kill Cersei, like, her hug triggered a vision of some kind—but the prophecy says Cersei will die by strangulation, doesn't it? So maybe not.

Yeah, I was just kind of thinking that if the grain was going to be given away anyway the loss was no big, but if it's meant to feed the people Dany intends to rule, she's not getting off to a great start winning hearts and minds. Or stomachs. Which will be very empty.

I don't buy that they'd really kill Jaime like that at this stage, but he's gonna need another fake hand.

Was that grain part of the payment to the Iron Bank, or has Dany just ensured that all her would-be subjects starve?

It drives me insane that the house names (or whatever the castes/groups/whatever are called) are not all the same part of speech. Like, how did nobody make the author fix that shit? Nouns or adjectives, lady. Pick one.

Let me hear you say it too! Say it. Say it or I'll kill your husband. I'll do it. I'll gut him like a fish.

Maybe she forgot about Rickon too.

They just like severed heads, really.

They'd have been fine if it hadn't been for…other Greyjoys.

You knew he was going to say it, but damn if it wasn't one of my favorite moments all season anyway.

On the other hand, if it's an indication of how she'd react if someone ever poisoned me, that's pretty sweet.

I was watching this with my mother, and I kind of hoped she'd be a little more disturbed at Cersei's punishment of Ellaria, but she just cheerily said "I don't know, that sounds fair to me!"

Okay.

It's very true, I don't.

Bro, all I did was make a facetious comment about how I neither listen to nor care about either of these bands enough to get their similar-sounding names right, and now I've got five people leapfrogging over each other to tell me how dumb I am for…not knowing about the bands I already said I didn't know about. Go off,

They sound equally and similarly uninteresting to me when they pop up on the radio, but people sure are getting mad about it, so I'm just leaving them to it.

I'll take your word for it.

I was complaining about interchangeable hipster bands yesterday, said something about "Arcade Monkeys and Arctic Fire" without realizing, and had to be corrected by my 55-year-old mother. I don't know how she knew the difference.
