Would be a good way for Bronn to go if Greyworm were to defeat him in a duel - Think Greyworm being killed by Jon yet potentially delivering his own fatal blow on Jon is how he'll gocafcpolo said:

Tyrion will defo be sentenced to death for releasing Jamie. I hope Bronn will then show up to be his champion and agree to take Casterly Rock as payment for the win.

He's been around briefly for two episodes, with absolutely no serious meaning which looks to become even more pointless seeing one of the two people who was going to deliver him Highgarden is now dead and I reckon we'll see Tyrion going the same way
i.e. No sign of Jamie in the camp, no other possible explanation for his escape (seeing the Unsullied can tell Dany that Tyrion was the last to see him alive) nor will there be any quick evidence of the bodies of Jamie and Cersei so imagine for a while that Dany will think they've escaped
Peter Dinklage has been the standout actor of the whole series for me (Really nice scene yesterday with him and Jamie) and desperately want him to have a happy ending
Dont see Bronn acting as a Champion again (after refusing to fight the Mountain on Tyrion's behalf) - Imagine if he gets someone to fight for him though it'll be against Greyworm?
I think the refusal was to make way for Oberyn, with something to fight for Bronn would do it. With Cersei and Jamie dead, if Tyrion dies he gets nothing. In theory he'd beat Greyworm but who knows.

Why do you guys think trial by combat is going to be a thing?

What was the favour Tyrion asked of the character he labelled the world’s greatest pirate? My assumption is that he asked him to smuggle Jon and Cersai out of the castle using secret tunnels and the sea.1

Because she doesn't want King's Landing, she wants to be Queen of Westeros. King's Landing is just a city, but it also happens to be where the majority of her enemies and the people are located. She burns it down to send a message to the people of Westeros, which is that if they won't love her, they will fear her. She didn't spend 8 seasons getting to this point just to live in the Red Keep, she came over to be in charge of all the seven kingdoms. In her mind, as long as she has control of her people, be it through love or fear, she's won. She would likely set up Dragonstone as her base.Gillis said:Garrymanilow said:I believe you've confused 'does not make sense in their arc' with 'not what I wanted to happen'. Either that or I'm concerned you don't actually understand the show you're watching. It's certainly been rushed this season, but everything that happened with Danaerys has been built up across the show from the start. She's constantly threatened to burn (and has burned) people around her. She's regularly been tempered by her advisors. But now she has lost everything, and she's decided to rule over the ashes rather than lose any more. Of course she's supposed to be the breaker of chains; but she isn't. That's the point. That's the entire point. She's been becoming more and more unhinged since arriving in Westeros, and all she's doing now is a larger-scale version of what she did in Essos, but now it's in Westeros it's so much worse to watch because the justification of killing slavers or pillaging rapists isn't there. Danaerys, alone, unloved and untethered makes the decision to reject her promise of breaking the wheel and becomes another spoke in it, just like her father before her. This is her character arc, it's what she's always been heading towardsBut why destroy King's Landing? It's the prize she (and her brother before her) have been after from the beginning. There has to be a better reason than 'she's gone mad.'The Mad King was cruel and unhinged, but he only tried to destroy King's Landing when he'd lost control of it: if he couldn't have it, no one could. Daenerys destroys it at the very point she's won the city. All of that effort, planning and sacrifice, just to burn it all to the ground. It doesn't make sense. And D.B. Weiss's explanation is just plain weird:"I don't think she decided ahead of time that she was going to do what she did. And then she sees the Red Keep, which is, to her, the home that her family built when they first came over to this country 300 years ago. It's in that moment, on the walls of King's Landing, when she's looking at that symbol of everything that was taken from her, when she makes the decision to make this personal."So she's finally about to get back everything that was taken from her, and that's the moment she decides to destroy it all? It doesn't make sense to me. Feels a bit like us walking through the gates of the Valley in December '92, and then deciding to torch the place!2 -

There's such a big difference between burning her enemies and committing unnecessary and very deliberate mass genocide and I think the "she's always bit a bit dragon-fire happy" comments are missing that point.2 -
It SHOULD have melted (or at the very least got seriously dinged up) after Dany was done with the place, but "Game of gloopy shiny puddle" doesn't really roll off the tongue to be honest.ValleyGary said:So is there no more 'Iron Throne'?

I bet everyone is going to feel really silly getting upset about 'but the writing doesn't justify it!' if there is a plausible explanation next episode e.g. madness or poison.
That's not forgetting that, multiple times, Dany has wanted to burn the city down only to be talked down by Tyrion or Jon, as well as expressed annoyance that the people did not love her enough to overthrow Cersei.
People seem to love blaming the writing for their own lack of attention span, or that twists should be signposted constantly before the twist. Ever heard of Chekhov's Gun?5 -

The mad queen storyline makes sense. Just because Dany repeatedly says she won’t do something doesn’t mean she can’t turn. Let’s not forget she has shown violent flashes in her past too.
The tendencies were there and I suspect this is the way the books are supposed to end, too. The show’s problem is that the pacing is all wrong.
The last episode she was on her way, ready to take the throne. The very next episode she has frizzy hair, sunken eyes and isn’t eating.
It’s just the unrealistic pacing (and too much plot armour) that has let the past two seasons down. GRRM said that it would take more than 6 and two half seasons to complete the story properly but the show writers wanted to do it their own way.3 -

Danerys is a tit.
Greyworm a tit.
Poxy dragon a tit.
Great episode.
Preferred Cersi to Danerys all along.
Looking forward to the finale of an epic show.1
