Yannick, from Montréal

How many times did I replay Bran's "visions" at the start of this episode, especially the Mad King and everything related to him since we've seen most of the other scenes. But there are some other scenes that we can't pinpoint... Was a real focus for so many of us to determine "when" those images took place on the GoT timeline. Bran has basically access to the Westeros history YouTube channel in a sort of way, but on random results ;-)

I always find it interesting watching this show how our reactions to character's actions are different depending on whether or not we like those characters. If Cersei enlisted an army of barbarians (who love to slaughter, rape, and enslave) to conquer Westeros, it would be seen as an example of how terrible she is, but we like it when Daenerys gets her own Dothraki horde. Goes the other way too, probably a ton of things characters like Tyrion or Varys have done that would seem horrible if someone we didn't like did it. I think half of this show reads differently if you just put different music under each scene.

To be fair, Daenerys getting her "horde" is her gaining control in a situation where she was first sold (season 1) and later kidnapped (season 5). Cersei was married off to Robert Baratheon (but she has confessed that she really did love him once), and apart from that... she's just been cruel - except for her walk of atonement, which I think most would agree the Sparrows (or at least the High Sparrow) deserve to suffer for. There's a bit of nuance between people being happy she got out of a horrible situation and people being happy that her army are "barbarians."

You're not alone - Mace Tyrell (Margaery's father) is hilarious, especially when he's trying so hard to be serious.
