Happened at the end of last season. They didn't show the actual moment of death, but showed her raising her sword after she read her charges against him.

DH and I must have totally forgotten it! All this season we were like "where is Stannis, where is Stannis?"

Here's the scene, in case you and your DH wanted to see it again. https://youtu.be/cXJcu8JbmEo

And too much male sniveling in this episode. Loras, the Khals, Jon Snow (who still knows nothing), Reek, Royce, the little Arryn.

But I did love Brienne telling it like it is to Davos and Melisandre. "Stannis? Dead."

That was awesome. I LOVE Brienne. The only thing I didn't like about that part was that Davos still doesn't know that Melisandre burned poor Shireen at the stake, and I can't WAIT for him to go apeshit on her when she does. At least, I hope he will.

I also found myself thinking that Drogo would be so proud of Dany for her burning those other khals, who totally deserved it. I keep hoping he'll come back somehow, even though I know it won't happen.

And, I can't decide whom I want to be the one to finally off Ramsay when the time comes. So many possibilities, all well-deserved!

What is Littlefinger up to? I really have trouble following him. I can't figure out who he is for and who he is against. Does he really want to help Sansa? I do t believe he has Sansa's best interests at heart because he gave her to Ramsey.

What do you think Tommen told his mother the High Sparrow said? And, I really love this show, but this whole High Sparrow storyline is super lame. In the first 4 seasons, nobody could touch the Lanisters/Baratheons without losing their head. Now, some religious nutcase comes crawling out of the gutters and had TOTAL control over the monarchy? It's just not consistent with the show's premise. Cersei or Tommen could have totally taken control of this situation by now. Why haven't they sent the King's Guard and Cersei's scary bodyguard in there, slaughtered the Sparrow nuts and br done with it. What is keeping them from doing that?

Little Finger love Catelyn Stark so I have to believe he is going to look out for Sansa. But who knows, you can't really trust anyone on this show, can you?

And you are so right about The High Sparrow. Do they have an army? Seriously why hasn't Tommen gone in and just slaughtered them? Makes no sense.

It really doesn't make any sense. I can barely watch that part anymore.

What is Littlefinger's main objective? Does he really want Robyn to be in power? That kid needs to go down the moon slide or whatever they call it.

Is that the kid that was breastfeeding forever?

Loved tonight's show. The pieces are falling into place. Sansa is so transformed, it's awesome. Dani showed us - again - what a badass she is.

Only part I was bummed about was the wildling's death. Died serving the Starks, so she died with honor.

Why was Dany able to walk out of the fire but her brother was killed by the melted gold that was poured over his head by her husband?

Tommen is also inbred and probably has a screw loose.

LOL his cat...

The Faith Militant existed long ago but lost their power. Cersei gave it back to them in an effort to get back at Margery for winning Tommen over. The High Sparrow has the love of the people plus an army of crazies plus the power given to him by Cersei, so the crown can't just stop them. The crown also does not have its own army. The Kingsguard is small and Robert Strong is only one person, so they can't take on hundreds on their own.

Littlefinger is for himself and power. I do believe he loved Catelyn so wants to help Sansa, but will only do so when helping her aligns with helping himself. The only reason he is supporting Robyn Arryn as Lord of the Eyrie is because he can esily manipulate him and Robyn has the Knights of the Vale and an army at his disposal. I think Littlefinger expects to win Winterfell and be named Warden of the North. Whether he plans to send Sansa back to Cersei (I don't think so) or try to marry her remains to be seen.

Well, Ramsey should definitely lose his penis for starters.

Don't you remember what Dany said after he died? "He was no dragon. Fire cannot kill a dragon."

Dany says "He was no dragon." Not every Targ has the ability to resist fire.

Sadly I knew he was going do the stabbing before getting stabbed. Saw that coming.

This episode felt slow. I'm ready for the High Sparrow story to end. Tommen is annoying & nervous. I'd like to see Maegery back to push Cersei around.

Meh to Dany. Again with the walking out of fire? You've already done this trick.

Sansa's plea for Jon's help politically legitimizes him (and the Starks) retaking Winterfell. She is the wife of the current Warden of the North. If her husband is dead, she inherits Winterfell. Jon acts as her steward and is Warden of the North at her request. Poor Jon! He is going to be King in the North!

Brienne is going to be the one who takes out Ramsey. Or a dire wolf.

Glad to know I am not the only one having trouble with the High Sparrow plot line. What is it they want the Queen & her brother to confess or do or say anyways? Could it all have been some elaborate scheme by the last queen to gain control again?
