Udvarnoky Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 He supposedly shot a scene for Season 5, yes? We probably get to see Mace Tyrell attempt to worm the crown out of its debt to the Iron Bank. Should be quite entertaining - both of those guys are hilarious. Let's hope Arya takes Meryn Trant out before he can do the same to Mace. I'm a big supporter of the Lord Oaf of Highgarden.

Ludo Kressh Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 i liked that scene with Stannis, Davos and the Iron Bank in season 4. It seems they definitely set it up for Arya to take Trant out, but I wonder too if Mace will make it back? If he does, he's in for a hell of a shitstorm back in King's Landing.

Udvarnoky Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 Yeah, I'm surprised that Mace even made it to Braavos. You'd think Cersei wouldn't even care what he could negotiate on the throne's behalf if she was going to have him killed on the way back. But it looks indeed like Mace will get to meet with Tychos. I guess Arya will kill Trant instead of the guy she's supposed to, leading her to being punished with the blindness potion. Seems like a good spot to leave Arya on for the season.

MountainThatSkates Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Well I think sending Mace could still be good for the Iron Throne, its not Cersei's fault he's an idiot. Who knows maybe he is a financial savant and will come off looking really bright.... nevermind. The point is Cersei sent one of the strongest lords in Westeros and that carries weight. Then if Trant kills him on the way back or after the meeting she has eliminated Mace and bought more time with the Iron Bank. Afterall, her negotiator dying on the way home would make that entire trip just one big waste of time... which is what Westeros needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fangirl000 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 It would be pretty awesome if Mace revealed himself to NOT be an idiot during this bank meeting. I would like to see some intelligence from the lord of one of the powerful houses of Westeros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmure's Floppy Fish Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I know this is a stretch....Crackpot in almost every sense of the word... But dang it would be awesome if Arya kills Meryn and/or Mace Tyrell this episode and takes one of their faces for her own and goes back to Kings Landing. Can you imagine Arya undercover and that close to Cersi, Illyn Payne, Gregor Clegane (in my Arya Voice) I know she doesn't know how to wear someone else's face yet, but she could be taught, or what's more possible, she could be told by JH that she has a new mission in KL and she will be wearing one of the faces of the people from the KL emissary.That would be one of the biggest wins for the Starks thus far! But this is Westeros, not Sesame Street, so she will probably end up blind after she takes Trant off of her list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Direwight Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I'm not sure if this is because or despite I'm not a huge fan of show!Mace, but I'd enjoy seeing him meeting with the Iron Bank, being completely in his element for once and revealing his one talent of masterful financial negotiation.

I can only imagine how hilarious it would be if Arya was given Mace's face and tried to masquerade as him. I doubt even Jagen could pull off the act convincingly. :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DornishWife Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Im unfamiliar to the books, But if Arya was to change faces would she also change physique? Or would she be a kid with Trants face? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenlyTheOneTrueKing Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 I think Mace pretends to be an idiot so everyone underestimates him, like Margaery and Olenna looking like innocent flowers, but being serpents beneath. It would be so cool if we saw Mace outwitting Tycho. Both of these actors are brilliant! And maybe we'll get some dry wit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkash Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Im unfamiliar to the books, But if Arya was to change faces would she also change physique? Or would she be a kid with Trants face? The books do not give a clear answer on that. Maybe I'm blinded, but I'm not sure Cersei really gave Meryn Trant an order to kill Mace. I just think she wanted him away for a while and buy time with the Iron Bank in the same time, but in the end, who knows... In any case, I dont see Mace Tyrell dying.

Candor Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 It would be interesting if Mace was only pretending to be a moron. We've seen some precedent for that in the show already - Pycelle acting like a feeble old man when he isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustard Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 It's been a long time coming for Trant but Arya has no reason to kill Mace. I hope they stick to the vengeful assassin theme rather than random acts of murder. In response to the OP, I'm very much looking forward to Gatiss' return :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Knute Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 If Arya sees Meryn Trant in BRAAVOS, where Syrio Forel was First Sword, whom she last saw with Meryn Trant and would likely presume was responsible for Forel's death and she doesn't kill him, I'll be incredibly disappointed.
