Because books.

Tywin climbing the steps to the Iron Throne was one of my favorite moments in the ep.

And Joffrey almost visibly cringing. And "We could arrange to have you carried"!!!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, that was great. But Joffrey was right to be concerned about the dragons. Is Tywin just wrong not to be concerned, or is he keeping dragon intelligence from Joffrey?

Seeing the dragons changing size from ep to ep is great. Tywin climbing the steps, also great. Jaime climbing out of the bear pit was also a great visual, I was really worried about him being able to get into position to reach up with he hand he still has.

I kinda see what you mean about Tyrion, Jess, but I'm not sure that it bothers me much at this point. As Sumi says, we'll see what happens as we go on.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I would love for Ygritte and Margery to have a conversation. Between "What? Girls see more blood than most boys" and "Yes, my mother taught me" I think they would get along famously.

Because books.

The idea of Ygritte and Margery together is a little terrifying. Imagine if they had grown-up Arya as their muscle.

Ooh, they should form a girl gang with Brienne! Under the direction of Olenna! And when Dany becomes Queen they can be the new small council!

(Fanfic, make this happen.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I get why Ygritte doesn't know what swoon means, but I thought going to 'faint' was confusing--even though Jon was clearly talking about gendered loss of consciousness, 'faint' is sufficiently close to 'passing out' that I figure anyone can do it. Do they just not lose consciousness up there? If he'd just defined swoon without saying faint, that scene would have been a one two punch of win.
