Oberyn had the right idea using a spear - reach and movement.

Funny thing is - it's not going to happen anyway. Between the distance impossibilities (maybe he can borrow Littlefinger's teleporter?) and the plot problems of introducing it in King's Landing (the trial will have to be soon, if it happens at all), the 'CLEGANEBOWL~!!' violates two of the major themes of GoT, namely

Once the war is over and no one is paying (or feeding) the sell-swords and other mercenaries in the army, they invariably become bandits.

True. I'd bet there will be an "heir on the way" (truthfully or not) if she does move against Tommen.

Oh…who cares about the books? I'm talking about the internal logic of the show. If your objection is "the books!", eh, you have your own reviews for that.

Don't listen to the nonsense from porkcfish (poor entitled white kids, will the ever get a break?). The scene is not an accurate representation at all.

I think that's actually part of the Sparrow's plan; Margery just had to go through with it to save her grandmother. HS tells Margery about Oleanna and suddenly Oleanna up and leaves town? He'll know she warned her. it's a win-win for him: If Margery is true to her conversion, she remains an asset and he can move

"whereas before it was sometimes just to stall to wait for GRRM to finish writing"

Plus I love that Sansa is still holding on to the Old North while the
New North is all "The North remembers…your brother putting us in a bad spot that the Boltons, who are also Northeners, saved us from".

Eh, they're where they're at based on being the last Starks left; not because of any well developed political acumen. Their track record in terms of politicking/leadership is pretty poor - after all Sansa made an emotional, not pragmatic, decision to spurn LF and 10k men and Jon just got over getting killed for

…and they probably held off in deference to GRRM's end for Stannis in case the book came out before S6 (remember when that was a possibility? LOL) as well.

And like all the other boring big men that Vince loves, he'll somehow escape being killed only to be hyped up…again.

Yeah, you don't have an 80's action movie set up like that (all it needed was a montage of him strapping on armor and weapons) without a few skulls getting busted down the line.

No show clue - just history. Savior to dictator, protector to predator has been happening for thousands of years.

My guess is: Using the HS and Tommen to get rid of Cersei (already got rid of Jamie). She could be scheming to get rid of Tommen too - it would help to know who would be next in line, or if it's a case where she could rule as queen. If it's the latter, Tommen is donzo.

Tututut…a trainee assassin. Which, to be fair, is about as far as she was going to get being that careless.

Because of book symmetry (i.e., they can't be a part of the end game because they're…uh, dead): Kevan (and Pycelle) for sure.

Well, I was on the fence until 4B….

Nah, LSH is going to kill Littlefinger. Only Cat after all.

I would if I didn't roll my eyes at his name every time. "Weel, Jeem, they named a Giant after meee"
