I don't dislike it either. I think it's just how little time they've spent on it that's bothering me. How are people supposed to care about it at this point?
I do expect that we'll get a lot more of in the last 4 episodes though. Do you think you guys think it will be in all of them or perhaps skip another one?

I think Dorne will be in the next one, skip episode 8, and will then be in the final two episodes

I also really like how they had the switch with LF where he's just going to play all sides. Makes him look like a lot less of a moron. Agree. I never would have guessed he'd tell Cersei that Sansa was in Winterfell, setting all sides against all sides. Me, neither! I really do wonder how LF will fare in the books to come. It's like one of those "if there were nuclear explosions all over the world that wiped out every civilization, there would still be two things left: roaches and LF"!!! |

I think we'll get the scene next episode when they're all jailed and Bronn hits on Tyene. And Jaime gets to talk to Myrcella again. But after that, I'm really not sure how much more is happening there before we get the big sit down where Doran tells Ellaria and Jaime what his plan his (in the finale I presume). Maybe they squeeze in some kind of action scene and maybe they find a way to kill Bronn off but there's no clues of that at this point.

I obviously feel bad for Sansa and hope her character strikes back at some point.
Just hope she's not pregnant.

I think the fair question with the Dorne stuff, was this worth cutting the Greyjoy stuff out?
After seeing a little bit of Dorne, it's hard to make that argument.

You think Tyrion telling Jorah about the NW mutinee was foreshadowing Jon's fate?

BTW, Iain Glenn's acting when Jorah finds out about his father was sublime. I thought that was the case, too! In fact, I'd give him all my votes for best performance this episode. I actually hated most of the episode, which is very, very rare for me - but it was mostly because I just thought everything about the way Dorne was handled, especially the fight scene, was just pitiful. That said, I thought the Godswood was lovely, as was Sansa's dress and her reclaimed red hair. But somehow, it just seemed like all the Starks underground should rise up, a la Stonemen, and strike down the Boltons and company. Ah, well -- we bide our time. And I see LF was at his slimiest. |

I think they need the Dorne stuff because Doran's plan is essential to the endgame. The Ironborn appear to be there mostly just to be plot devices for other character stories whose roles can be taken on by existing characters. |

But he's going to reveal a new player for the throne, that much is certain. |

Cogman's always great at callbacks and slipping little book things in to his episodes so I like that he included Kyra in Myranda's list of Ramsay's playthings. And even better, she referenced Violet (Myranda's partner in crime in S3) and how she got pregnant so Ramsay got rid of her which is extra hilarious once you realize that Stephanie Blacker really did get pregnant which stopped her from participating in S4 (presumably in the role they changed to 'Tansy' being hunted by the dogs).

Yeah, I noticed that too, some nice continuity and in-jokes with that list. |

I'm still so mad. I'd like to see Theon regain his archery skills and skewer Ramsay by the jugular.

Myranda's only in one more episode, a David Nutter one, so she won't be in 507 or 508 though Winterfell will be. So I imagine if Myranda dies in the David Nutter episode where they escape, probably 509, either Reek or Sansa or Pod or Bri could kill her then. |
