I don't know what I want more -Daenerys Targaryen as Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, and/or Sansa Stark as Queen (or perhaps Warden) of the North.  

BTW, I'm curious about Yara Greyjoy's fate.  It doesn't seem like Cersei (or Jaime) has the same personal animus toward her like she does toward Ellaria and her Sand Snakes.  Could Cersei try to persuade Yara to join her in a bid to provide an alternative to Euron whom she clearly doesn't want to marry -and might eventually do away with once he's no longer of use to her?  Perhaps secretly offering Yara the lordship of the Iron Islands in exchange for joining her cause?

What does everyone think happened with Bronn and Jaime after they took that plunge into that river to escape that dragonfire?  Were they fished out and captured by Daenerys' forces later on?

Well, so much for that.

A thought just occurred to me -what if this tension between Arya and Sansa is actually a setup mutually agreed upon between the two with the ultimate goal of killing Littlefinger?  Sansa can't execute him outright for obvious reasons (especially since even if Bran has told them both everything about him, they have no actual evidence -yet), and Arya can't just assassinate him out of the blue no matter how much she wants to.  So they have to lure Littlefinger into making a mistake grave enough to justify his death, and what better way to do that than to make him think there is still a conflict between the two sisters that he can exploit?  They're both intelligent, cunning, and ruthless, enough such that they can pull it off.

Back the first episode of this season -does anyone think Tyrion (for personal reasons) deliberately sent the Greyjoys and the Martells to their doom in full knowledge that Euron and his ships were waiting for them?  I find it hard to believe that he proved to be so incompetent in light of how well he conducted the defense of Kings Landing during the Battle of Blackwater.  What he did only makes sense if he held a grudge against Theon for betraying the Starks and sending Bran and Rickon to their deaths (he didn't yet know that Bran survived), and Ellaria and her Sand Snakes for poisoning Myrcella.

Now that we know for certain that Jamie Lannister isn't going to be the Valonqar snuffing the life from Queen Cersei, that leaves two possibilities:

1. Sandor 'the Hound' Clegane (someone has to kill the Mountain to get at the Queen)

2. Arya Stark (Winterfell is admittedly a long ways away from Kings Landing, but it's the show....)

Which of the two do you think is more likely to do the deed? Or do they act together as a team once they meet up again?

And of course, one also has to factor in that Kings Landing is likely to be an active war zone as betrayal is met with betrayal, and the Golden Company (secretly already in alliance with Daenerys and Aegon Targaryen -assuming it is anything like the book version) turns on Cersei.

Brace yourselves -in true Targaryen tradition, Daenerys and Aegon (i.e. Jon Snow) could actually be siblings according to this new theory floating around that Dany's father is actually Rhaegar, and not Aerys as she was always led to believe.

Anyone think it plausible?
