No doubt. Probably not wise when so much of the city already hates your guts. Cersei's gonna have to watch her back.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

prediction: the ragtag armies of the Starks and Lannisters team up to overcome the white walkers and the Targaryan invaders. Somehow. Or maybe they die horribly.

I agree that the execution of that plot line was pretty thin. A whole lot of intrigue and buildup for a group of people who remained largely undefined, and ultimately just got blown up.
I liked it.

Why did you jump to rape? Maybe he only gouged her eyes out and chopped off her hands and feet and flayed her. You know, normal stuff.

I thought this scene was a highlight. Dark and depraved on the same level as "...It puts the lotion in the basket."

i am legit surprised to see people saying the septa was being raped. she starts screaming before cersie closes the door, so in full view of the viewer, and he's still standing over her without having moved one bit when the door is finally shut. people are getting rape out of that? i saw it as physical torture, not sexual. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
ah, copperplate, a font for the truly modern man.
