Jorah: Are you fucking kidding me?!
Daario: That's not how you say Daenarys.

Duties that include finding and marrying Daenarys? You can't really cut Victarion, Aeron's really the only one that comes close to expendable.

A friend of mine said the perfect way to save Aeron would be to cast Brian Blessed. I'm inclined to agree.

Tyrion wants himself to be broken? Westerosi Psychologists will have a field day.

'Bring my brown pants!'

Reminds me, I hope the show keeps the shoutout to it from ADWD.

No, he sounded a lot choked.

Selling Gendry to Melisandre.

I thought he sounded a little choked.

I have a feeling it may well be the pre-opening credits scene of Season 5 Episode 1.

I wouldn't be surprised if the doll Ned gave Sansa got a 'previously on…' mention at this point.

Details of Jorah's betrayal, maybe.

I wouldn't think either of them would. Tyrion knows the extent of Jaime's abilities with his left hand and wouldn't want his brother killed as well as guaranteeing his own execution. As for Cersei, Jaime has a right to decline, and his loyalty to his sister is not what it once was. Not to mention, Cersei wants Tyrion…

That's why I said 'he's not fit to rule'. He doesn't have anything like the necessary amount of sanity to even attempt it.

The prosecution calls the witnesses, Tywin is not the prosecution, but a judge. Cersei is responsible here. Which would make the 'why poke the bear' a tad more obvious.

'Plus, I'm pretty sure Thorne is going to die in episode 9.'

I thought Balon's 'he cannot further the Greyjoy line' in Mhysa estabishes that he's no longer a viable heir. Apart from that, as established in this episode, he's in no fit state to rule, let alone continue the line.

Was the guy from What Is Dead May Never Die meant to be him?

The aftermath of Castle Black with Jon becoming Lord Commander is a little bit too compressed, I think, unless the election starts before the battle.

Robert did claim a Targaryen grandmother IIRC, and with Viserys and Dany exiled and Aemon at the Wall, he may have been the closest viable heir.
