StarkBlack21 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I don't like they are getting rid of the QOT already. Margery doesn't have her cousins, at least no speaking ones. I never understood why GRMM had the QOT disappear in the book either. Do you think they will have the QOT return in the show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Damian Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 This rules out any doubt. Queen of Thorns poisoned Joff and the theory why by Littlefinger is that they promote stability and he likes that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Pipes Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I'm sorry to see Diana Rigg got but Olenna really doesn't have much to do storyline wise at this point. I will miss her snarky and biting comments she directs to Cersei though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good Guy Garlan Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I will miss her like hell. I wonder if she'll take on Willas' or Garlan's role in the future, when Euron attacks the Reach And who's going to provide the snark about Tywin's smelly corpse??

StarkBlack21 Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 You think they'll have her come back? It's weird when people just disappear for no reason. I was hoping one of the changes would be keeping her in King's Landing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of An Other Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Well if I was her, I'd be ready to get the hell out of Dodge as well. KL isn't exactly the most wonderful place on Earth, and if her... activities were to be found out, it'd be best to be as FAR AWAY as possible just to be on the safe side. Littlefinger's speech about his motives can also directly apply to the QoT as well imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Guy Garlan Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 She might return next season for that. I hope. But I'm going to miss her dearly. The One True Queen :bawl: Also, a bit off-topic, but this thread is as good as any. It seems they're setting up some kind of alliance between LF and the Tyrells, but in the books I always got the sense that he merely used them to kill Joff and that they had no secret contact with one another. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Alysanne™ Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I will miss her like hell. I wonder if she'll take on Willas' or Garlan's role in the future, when Euron attacks the Reach And who's going to provide the snark about Tywin's smelly corpse?? IKR I hope she takes on another role, thats one change I'll be satisfied with, cause I love Olenna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newstar Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 The available cast for the KL AFFC storyline for the show is looking awfully thin, now that on top of so many of the other important AFFC players being MIA (Kevan and Lancel), they're getting rid of Olenna.

doghouse Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I always took it that the Tyrells and Littlefinger were in on it together with the Queen playing the role of instigator in killing off Joffrey, The series makes it seems like it was LF's plan.

Son of An Other Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I don't trust Littlefinger at all, and I totally thought, when I first read it, that him and the Tyrell's (or at least QoT since Mace seems to be a bumbling fool) were in cahoots. I see LF as being the ultimate at disseminating whatever plans he has for Westeros. In fact, if it were not for the Others and Dany's dragons, I'd think he would be #1 on my list of things that I'd need to watch out for. He's smart, he knows he is, and nobody except Varys (who I also think is super smart and a much more abler play of the GoT than anyone else gives him credit for) realizes this. I'm truly worried about LF's ultimate intentions and I can't wait to seem them played out (preferably in the books lol.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When reading, I thought it was a Tyrell plot that Littlefinger capitalized on. In the series, it feels like a Littlefingers plot that helped the Tyrells.

HouseHarrison Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I never got the doubt for her involvement in Joff's death. The very first time I read LF's explanation of the assassination to Sansa and they talked about her being there, I immediately thought it was an actual confirmation by GRRM she did it.

JesterX Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Can somebody clue me in as to why in the Olenna/Margaery scene in this episode, did they flash to Margaery's chain as Olenna tugged at it towards the end of the scene? That didn't seem like an idle camera cutaway. That meant something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're right then that's OVER-doing it. That connection had been made when Olenna said "oh but I do". The chain tug struck me as meaning something else. I was thinking the key to Tommen's chambers or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That didn't seem like an idle camera cutaway. That meant something. Yeah this was probably done purposely in case non book readers still hadn't connected two and two about the necklace yet and how the poison got from the necklace into Joffrey's cup. I'm guessing they felt the original scene was too subtle and most viewers probably missed it. I too was hoping they'd change the storyline to keep Olenna around longer since they've changed it up for other characters coming and going when they weren't at KL in the books. But since she knows she might be suspect eventually it's probably obvious she should leave now. She gave Margaery the big clue so now we know Margaery really didn't know anything about the poisoning.
