Im curious if Jamie is going to get captured or if he and Bronn will "emerge" a few miles down river.

On another note I watched Shot Caller today with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. It was pretty good. Lots of other good actors in it also. Not very plausible, but a good story. I liked seeing him as someone besides Jamie Lannister.

So now what? Does the Iron Collections Agency get involved, or the funds dry up, or both?

I believe that Tarley had told Jamie that the gold had successfully crossed the Blackwater Rush, and was in Kings Landing, just before they were attacked.

But they show the wagon with at least some of the gold on fire. I guess that was "walking around money" for those soldiers in the field or some equivalent, so to speak, and not the whole thing.

perhaps you are referring to Bronns bag of gold?

No, the wagon of loot it came from that's shown rolling off while on fire near the end of the battle, I believe...

Oh, maybe rusbro is right, but I took the emphasis of showing a burning wagon to be *that* wagon. Maybe not. I'll watch it again to get the exact timing and another look.

We'll know about the gold tomorrow, but Lord Tarly did say it was safely to Kings Landing.

I think that will allo Cersei to use some of the Iron Banks friends to get something back - not sure if that means Tyrion, Sansa, Winterfell, LittleFinger maybe - but I think she'll strike a deep blow in the final 3 episodes of the season.

Perhaps she will use the golden company to attack the ironbank to get the gold back she rightfully earned? Then she could sack the ironbank and control the monetary system in the universe. Maybe a stretch but she is power hungry.


I believe it was just a few wagons and they showed drogon smashin the wagon the scorpion/ballista was on.

Dickon should have asked for a commission in Euron's navy. He has ample experience in naval warfare, boarding ships, etc. If I had to bet I'd say Gendry picked him up off that island Silver marooned him on and brought him to Westeros.

I don't dispute Drogon tore up some wagons, I think the Lord Tarley line was added to ensure people knew the gold got back to Kings Landing.

I find it funny that all the wagons were destroyed except 2, one had to contain the Scorpion crossbow And Bronn had plenty of time without being attacked to use it. Even with the battle raging around him.

But of course the showdown had to happen - and now the Dothraki / Unsulled can be told what to destroy first, if it isn't burnt. Like a SEAD mission to allow the Dragons to operate with relative impunity.

Good episode, lots of pieces moved into position now

The Gilly girl let slip a huge piece of information.

So... Im trying to piece together the preview here. It seems somewhat clear but...

Before I put thoughts in your minds, any consideration as to what you think will happen?

Yup, if he hadn't interrupted her he would have heard it....

The letter in Littlefingers room will bring about some interesting turns, he is a crafty sumbitch

And Sam totally missed it because he cut her off. LOL.

So who else thinks that Cersei might be faking that pregnancy to play with Jaime?

And what did that letter that Arya found say? Seems that Littlefinger planted the whole thing and he's trying to drive a wedge between the two so that Arya might try to kill Sansa.

Spoiler: I hear that Sam and Bran are going to meet at Winterfell next episode and Jon's parentage will be revealed.

The letter is from season one, when Sansa told Robb to come to Kings Landing and bend the knee to new king joffrey.

It was the one Cersei made her write

Five episodes in and I've just realized something:

Cersei is Queen. She's always referred to herself as a Lannister. So why isn't the sigil above King's Landing a lion instead of the Baratheon stag?

It's the letter that Sansa wrote back in Season 1 (under duress), in which she declared her father a traitor, swore her fealty to King Joffrey, and encouraged Robb to do the same.

Littlefinger's trying to drive a wedge between Arya and Sansa.

"Thought you might still be rowing." Laughed at that line.

Good episode, setting up the final few of this season perfectly.

Because she's technically part of the royal Baratheon family, by marriage. She ascended to the throne by virtue of her position as the widow of Robert Baratheon and the mother of the deceased Joffrey and Tommen Baratheon. Ostensibly, the Baratheons still hold the throne, and she's the sole remaining member of that family (other than Gendry, who nobody knows about).

If he was good at his job, he would already know there's not much that would cause a rift between the two. They've always had some sort of sibling rivalry going with each other.

Sam will recall it and then return to get that book (my guess)

Littlefinger is trying to drive a wedge between the sisters I think Arya will recognize this, inform Sansa, and be allowed to kill Littlefinger.

My main hope is that Cersei does not decide to punish Bronn on her own. He's become a favorite of mine.
