heard interesting theory about what Cersei is up to in siding with the Tyrells:

Theory goes that Loris Tyrell spilled the truth to high sparrow about Tyrells being behind Joffrey's murder It would explain the significance of showing him all broken in that scene with Margery. This bit of information is the secret that the High Sparrow shared with Tommen and Tommen told Cersei in the last episode. Cersei is planning an ambitious move to plot her two current enemies against each other by bringing the Tyrells in to attack the faith militant. The Tyrells have large army so they could probably destroy them but that end up alienating the populace. The Lannisters then turn on weakened Tyrells and claim they had no involvement in original plot to kill off faith militant. Cersei gets rid of faith militant and makes the Tyrells look like the ones who killed popular religious movement

apparently its going to involve a "Cleganebowl" in which the Hound returns to serve Faith Militant and fight the zombie Mountain
but at the same time cersei inviting the tyrell army to king's landing is quite a risky move. that army could turn against the lannisters, and there's nothing they could do.

I suppose it is a risky move but the Tyrells aren't going to start anything against the Lannisters as long as the Queen is a Tyrell they think its a good deal for their family. Tyrells are going to be focused on saving Loris and Margery who are the future of the Tyrell dynasty. If theory is true then they might not ever even find out how Cersei set them up, or it will be too late and Cersei can sieze Grandma Tyrell as hostage.

Those Khals got the power by killing for it, and she litterally killed half a dozen of them, burnt them, and walked out of the burning inferno of HELL unscathed like a boss bitch. Anyone who doubts they impressed by that considering what we know about Dothrakis doesnt know this series. Doubt the exocution/directing maybe, not the logic. If this was in Kings landing and the septons were witnessing this, then they would likely say burn the witch (or hang, since burning is moot), but it isnt. This is basically Mongol Spartans who worship power and believe in it to the core.
Yeah that was okay, more unrealistic was them letting her finish her long ass speech in the first place, as well as the cheesy dialogue.

They will have the Freys on their side since Ramsay killed his stepmom
He'll get most of the minor houses of the North to support him, 90% sure that the Umbers are gonna betray Ramsay too (the ones who brought him Rickon).

I would believe the story if it wasn't for the "on your way Lord Commander" part.

Still a pretty good beer-time story when you are one of the GoT actors I guess.

Tyrion straight hustled that dumb fuck but I'm sure he will lay claim to the land Tyrion promised him in the next 2 seasons.

But Big Red will still carry the belt
