seriously how many more boring long speeches of the high sparrow and "OMGGGGG SOOOO SASSY WHAT A BURNNN!!!!" lines from olenna am i gonna have to suffer? i know lena had just had her baby when season 6 was filmed so therefore she's not getting as much screentime this season but KL could be so much more compelling if they fleshed out cersei more this season and starting showing her madness more rather than same boring bullshit tyrells and high sparrow scenes. and if marge's stupid ass actually allies herself with the high sparrow then i'm 100000% done. cersei seriously needs to kill all those cunts. because she's the only character with enough relevance to have any impact when dany and tyrion come to westeros. Yeah, I heard there were people who prefer the "kill all those cunt scenes" over "boring long speeches", but I'm always fascinated again how different things can be perceived. For me, the High Sparrow / Tyrell / Cersei / Jaime storyline is by far the most interesting, most complex one so far this season. Others prefer Dawn-of-the-Dead zombies crawling goblin-like on the ceiling of a cave. Still, you must not fear: Cersei will kill all "those cunts" (no spoilers here, just my speculation). But you can be sure of another thing: by the time Daenerys comes to Westeros, the Mad Queen Cersei will be dead and gone, and snow will drift through the ruins of the Red Keep. After having witnessed (and caused) the death of her third child, it won't be long before she meets her end. No place in the endgame for her ;-).

3. The scene where FrankenMountain kills one of Sparrows: Gregor kills (+) one of the Sparrows (+) without interruption (+) in the background the rest of the sparrows and perhaps High Sparrow, at least their feet (+) stair such as those in sept ( +), but the floor is different (-?) The scenery is the same one as in scene 1, it's in the Red Keep next to the room where the small council met several times: The guy killed seems to be the one seen standing next to Lancel before.

GreenChili I appreciate the reply but I think you should edit your post. We're not allowed to talk about the leaks anywhere else but the leaks post. Sorry for forgetting the spoiler tags - I changed that!

I don't want them to be Castamere'd. For fucks sake please let Olenna and Marg survive! If Cersei wipes out an entire House in one scene, she is the major winner of the Game of Thrones in all history. Can't forget the Rains of Castamere motive playing in the background when Cersei and Jaime had that ominous meeting with Olenna & Kevan... So either this is kind of a twisty foreshadowing of the future fate of House Lannister itself: "Now the rains weep o'er his hall, with no one there to hear" in this context brings back the images of the destroyed Throne Room in Daenerys' and Bran's visions. OR the Tyrells simply get castamere'd (as hinted at in the Reddit leaks) ... which I fear is what will happen. however i loved lena's acting in the small council scene. so many quick subtle nuances there. imo its obvious that cersei is playing the long con in regards to the tyrells and sparrows. she's totally going to throw the tyrells in the trash once her main sparrow problem is solved imo. and it makes sense to me that kevan would finally agree too since even book kevan thinks cersei's changed after the WOS. lena's expression when olenna agrees was so good and so subtle. it was like a mixture of relief but also that she's hiding something. I rewatched this scene several times, and absolutely share your observations. There is especially one dialogue that totally seems to prepare the Castamerization of the Tyrells as mentioned in the leaks : "You hate what they have done to your son."This is what Cersei says to Kevan, obviously talking about his son Lancel. But I get the feeling that in her heart and mind she is at the same time speaking about her dead son Joffrey. When she says this, she moves to the side of Jaime, who is slighty nodding in silent confirmation. So in the second meaning, "they" would refer to the Tyrells who had organized Joffrey's death (together with Littlefinger); maybe this information was the secret the High Sparrow had told Tommen (which would also fit to Tommen's shaken state of mind and tearful expression when talking to his mother)? And then Cersei continues, still talking to Kevan: "[...] stand aside and let the people who took him from you be destroyed", after which the camera instantly switches to Olanna Tyrell, averting her eyes...

Updated episode 5 info. With only 5 confirmed storylines, it should be a pretty focused episode. I think we'll be seeing Jon/Sansa/Davos/Mel leaving the Wall and Yara/Theon/Euron leaving the Iron Islands, so there'll be a lot of forward motion. Storylines for episode 5 seem to get a bit more crowded. We now have confirmed: - Castle Black / Departure
- Sansa & Brienne meeting LF in Mole's Town
- Bran vision of Winterfell pt. 2
- Bran vision of the Night's King / Stone Circle / CotF
- Braavos
- Iron Islands / Kingsmoot
- Vaes Dothrak / Jorah reveals his greyscale condition
- Meereen / New red priestess
Updated episode 5 overview with all images (officially published info and pictures only - no leaks) can be found here: Episode 5 Preview

Yes, and we seem to have not only the Night's King / Stone Circle / CotF vision, but also part II of the Winterfell vision !

Are you talking about the reddit guy right? The one who got the Osha scene right a week before the episode aired? If that's so, he also claimed that Hodor dies next episode... holding the door so Bran and Meera can scape the cave
Now that sounds a bit strange - there was this scene in the Behind the Vfx video of all four of them (Hodor, Bran, Meera, Leaf) fleeing and Hodor pulling Bran behind him. I'm not sure if the scene could play still inside the cave before passing the door though; there were some green screens in it, if I remember correctly.

I can bet that Hound is back and LF is nowhere near LS. Mcshane talked of nursing someone back to health not bringing back No, McShane did say both those things in his 2 (in)famous interviews. I totally agree, the "nursing back" is a lot more fitting to the Hound theme; but hey, it's Ian McShane talking, so I prefer to ignore the details . I'm not totally denying the slight possibility of the Hound coming back, I just don't recognize the need for it anymore now that I see Loras as champion of the faith. Regarding the LF-LSH meeting: I accept the challenge, and bet my honor as an imp on it - this will happen 100%, it is known. If history should prove me wrong, I will return and willingly perform my walk of shame in this board, and you will be allowed to ring the bells of shame for me. But I'm sure the ringing will be my part .

More and more sure we will not see the Hound again. The champion of the faith in Cersei's trial by combat will be Loras Tyrell, so noone needs a CleganeBowl. And if the Hound isn't the "beloved character" brought back by Ian "Dragons & Tits" McShane, then... Still betting all my gold on an episode 10 encounter between LF and LSH

I don't think Yara will be vying for the throne but I can see the other five happening. From episode 5 preview: "I claim the Salt Trone!" But i totally agree: she won't get the throne - Euron will be king, and she will be sent to Essos.

I'm so sorry, fellow CleganeBowlHypers, but I have sad news for you... In the latest after-Ep4-video from HBO we see Ser Loras Tyrell, in rags and with a much more pious hairstyle, obviously after his release from the cells. One of the best knights of Westeros, who "just wants to do anything he can to get out of that cell", as Finn Jones points out in his interview. And, as it happens, the Faith will be in urgent need for a champion in the upcoming trial by combat that Cersei will invoke. Who needs a Hound, when there is a Knight of the Flowers right at disposal? Do I have to elaborate more? Goodbye CleganeBowl hype, welcome back LSH hype Well, for hardcore CleganeBowl believers, there might be some straw to clutch at: IF CleganeBowl really happens, the Mountain might be defeating his brother Sandor (blasphemy, I know); then in the last moment Loras would intervene and save the Hound, thus repaying the service he received back in season 1.

We know that the Hound is returning in episode 7. And how do we know this??? The Hound is big speculation per se (no, McShane did NOT confirm his return), so where do you get your episode 7 knowledge from?

And I don't see any link between LSH and the title. I think it is pointless to expect her in any episode before Brienne gets to RL Me neither - I was just trying to keep the hype alive with the wildest ideas my brain could create after half a bottle of wine ;-) . Hmm, maybe it's time to reanimate the "leaked Stoneheart pictures" discussion from Season 5 again...

Of course she has more than 4 names on her list, it is known ;-). BUT if the faceless men knew that, they could not send her after Thoros / Beric / Melisandre as they plan to do, as no FM may kill a person he knows... But to return to the topic: The "Book of the Stranger" is the death list of LSH - don't forget she's the promoter of DEATH: "A trestle table had been set up across the cave, in a cleft in the rock. Behind it sat a woman all in grey, cloaked and hooded. In her hands was a crown, a bronze circlet ringed by iron swords. She was studying it, her fingers stroking the blades as if to test their sharpness. Her eyes glimmered under her hood. Grey was the color of the silent sisters, the handmaidens of the Stranger. Brienne felt a shiver climb her spine. Stoneheart."

GreenChili , I had to edit your post. Just remember to use spoiler tags next time since it's only a speculation thread for the next episode. NP, sorry for forgetting the spoiler tags! Though I meant it to be pure speculation for episode 4, merely based on the official trailers we have been shown by HBO...

The Faceless Men don't send assassins to kill people they know. Though that is true, we know they believe someone has to die if deaths have been stolen from the Red God: "The Red God takes what is his, lovely girl. And only death may pay for life. You saved me and the two I was with. You stole three deaths from the Red God. We have to give them back." And the Faceless Men could also give Arya the option to work down her own list, as Jaqen told her in season 2: "If you would learn, you must come with me. [...] Far and away across the Narrow Sea, to Braavos. [...] To be a dancing master is a special thing, but... to be a Faceless Man, that is something else entirely. A girl has many names on her lips. Joffrey. Cersei. Tywin Lannister. Ilyn Payne. The Hound. Names to offer up to the Red God. She could offer them all. One by one." But that wouldn't be simply altruistic, as Jaqen has his own plans obviously. To quote Tom Wlaschiha: "Jaqen has been very consistent with what he wants. He picked Arya for a reason".

Episode 3 hype tidbits - Arya mentions Catelyn, Walder Frey mention in regards to Arya list, no Thoros on her list so that's good hopefully she won't off him, RW mention from the direwolf killer, last hanging scene perhaps? It would be interesting contrast once the hanging is done by someone who was also resurrected yet is not hesitant or remorseful in the slightest To be honest, I thought exactly the opposite. The Waif was obviously very irritated and obsessed about her "funny little list" - either because she mentioned Walder Frey, or because the list she cited was obviously too short and lacked some names the Waif was expecting to hear: The Red Woman, Thoros of Myr, Beric Dondarrion. It might be the plans the Faceless Men have with Arya are somehow connected to her list. My guess is she will be send to off someone from that list, and Red Priests seem to be perfect targets for that. Remember how Melisandre said to her in season 3: "We will meet again". And don't forget: there must be a reason for her to go to the Riverlands, and that reason might bear the name of Walder, Thoros or Beric.

Looking forward to that Castle Black meeting too... Just think about what might happen when Brienne (Fan of Renly, killer of Stannis) meets Ser Davos (Fan of Stannis, friend of Shireen) and Melisandre (Fan of Stannis, killer of Renly and Shireen) and they all start talking about the last days and weeks. And in Vaes Dothrak Daenerys' walking days will finally come to an end. We'll see the big meeting of the Khals - and we'll finally see the scene of Daenerys touching the glowing brazier in front of all those Khals, thus proving her identity as The Unburnt and Mother of Dragons. Lucky all those big horde leaders conveniently gathered in VD, so Daenerys can organize herself a real BIG army ;-) .
