She isn't in the Bloody Line of Succession!
Everyone else, in King's Landing, is dead!
Poor Tommen.
Serves him right, for ending trial by combat.
I didn't think they were going to Kill off Margaery.
Yes, that was surprising.
Imagine how the Lady of Thorns is going to react to the “green judgement”? Methinks that - like Sansa was given the privilege of managing Ramsey’s demise, so will Olenna be given special permission to end Cersei’s “suffering”...
It simplifies the plot, and this episode does solidify the idea that Sansa Stark is the younger queen likely to take her place - though whether with Tyrion or Littlefinger as her husband is TBD.
Or Tyrion as her husband with her as Queen of the North, a reward / encouragement of Danerys to solidify her political support there. Then make Jon as Daenrys’ brother’s son her heir because Danny can’t have children.
Arya would have killed Jaime if, if, if . . . .
