    It's all part of a long-running scheme, too; killing Joffrey and framing Tyrion gets Sansa out of her marriage while providing him with the opportunity to spirit her away. The marriage to Tyrion itself was also engineered by him, to keep her from slipping out of his grasp to Highgarden.
    Yeah, yeah. I just have a lot of trouble understanding how his plan gets him on the Iron Throne, as well as how it's managed to incorporate thoroughly unpredictable events (Bran falling and the consequences thereof, for example).

        You picked up on that too, eh?

        ****ing hell, I hope not. I hope someone is able to stop it; no shortage of candidates:

          That's what you all are taking from this episode? What about...

          Spoiler:
          ...Grey Worm and Barristan (maybe possibly it's not clear) dying?

                Yep. Not happy about that part. Particularly because

                Barristan doesn't even get his true badass moment. I was looking forward to that.

                  Indeed. I'm really kind of disappointed about that..

                  Spoiler:
                  Are they not even going to have Second Battle of Meereen in all its badass-ness? I mean, in the books (sample chapter from Winds of Winter) you have Barristan Selmy leading a host of Unsullied outside the gates to attack the sellsword armies from Yunqai and Astapor, along with Dany's other two dragons, and from the see, Victarion's fleet makes mincemeat of the Slaver's navy. It would have been far more epic than the Battle of the Blackwater

                    Good episode. Ser Grandfather did not die, although he can still kick the bucket. My money is on him surviving though.

                      Sorry, you are wrong... there are interviews confirming that Barristan is gone

                          Supposedly, that second battle is supposed to happen in the opening chapters of The Winds of Winter.
