Tywin is the smartest idiot in Westeros, especially when it comes to his own family.
Love this.

Because books.
It's incredibly hypocritical of Tywin to want to separate Tommen from her because of Joffrey - if Joffrey is Cersei's fault, then Cersei is Tywin's. Look at the three children he raised to adulthood and tell me Tommen is better off with him.
I don't know -- neither Cersei, Jaime, or Tyrion are completely insane or relentlessly sadistic.
I don't know that Tommen will be better off with Tywin, either, but I do think Tywin means Cersei to feel that she's being punished.

Mah giiiiirl. Gods, that was lovely.
Props to the show people for the Cersei-Jaime scene. That was the follow-up I was hoping for.
The Margaery/Tommen scene! That was a great addition/spin.
Locke made me say, "Oh, shit. Oh, shitshitshit," a lot.
During the Jaime-Tyrion scene, when Jaime made the comment about breaking him out, I said," Ummm, spoilers? "

Margaery! YES. She really is as good as her grandmother thinks she is. Also, I KNEW Olenna had something to do with Joffrey's death!
Sunday is such a bittersweet day, because it's all, "Game of Thones!" and then, "But that means we're one episode closer to the end of the season."

If you go back and watch the wedding, you can see the whole thing play out.
Margaery! YES. She really is as good as her grandmother thinks she is.
I think it's interesting that she was so horrified that her grandmother would do that.
I still wonder if Tywin was in on it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
They really didn't waste any time clarifying who killed Joffrey and how, did they? I approve.
I had to look up who Locke is. And now that I've done that...oh crap.
Dire wolves should not be in cages. That has got to end soon.

Burn Gorman just plays a magnificent asshole, doesn't he.

Yeah, that mystery was not a mystery for long.
I had to look up who Locke is. And now that I've done that...oh crap.
Yeah, when he showed up, I was all, "I know him...who...wait. Shit." And then with everyone converging on Craster's...shit.
Dire wolves should not be in cages.
They should be FREEEE

So nice to see Gorman, even if it seems like it's destined to be a short-lived character! Nice to see the plot going slightly off the book-rails.
Does anybody want to whitefont me who Locke is (I've read the books, but the name means nothing right now)?
