I think Sansa had that plan in mind, primarily to outmaneuver Littlefinger.
Jon isn't going to stay King in the North for that long lets be honest.
I got the impression that she had just out-maneuvered Littlefinger. He has no houses left that would trust him and he's now got a whole lot of passionate witnesses to his supposed alignment to House Stark.
He doesn't come across as the type with enough balls to do.
And I can't see Jon as King. Greater warrior, yes. Great leader? King? NFW.
It's Queen Of Dragons all the way...
If there's truth to the story that R & L were married 'officially', he's actually ahead of her in the pecking order.
He was used and manipulated by everyone his entire life, that was one of his only acts of his own accord.
And that's why they call it King's Landing. (thanks reddit)
I loved how this was shot. The sounds of screams, him moving off-camera to gently place his crown on a table, and then just walking out that window with no real hesitation. Just a perfect, sad way for one of the show's only truly 'good' people to die.
All good points on Tommen.
Weak exit typifies his character.
Glad to see the last of him, high sparrow, Margery, Pycell, Loras and Lancel. Pretty much all the annoying characters, including Walder Frey. No more wasting screen time next season. All good.
The only one I'll miss is Margaery. Man, she was the balls.
Still thinking how remarkable that episode was.
In any other tv show, a child character killing someone's kids and serving it to him in a pie, then slitting his throat would be the highlight of the season. It wasn't even the top moment of the episode
Multiple child murders in one episode.
Arya kills Walder on screen and two Freys off-screen.
Little Birds massacre Pycelle.
Little bird stabs Lancel and then leaves him to blow up.
Have just watched that Armada scene about six times now. Dornish ships in the background, Theon looking up at the Kraken, Emilia Clarke actually nailing a look for the first time since season 3...Wow. All it needed was Drogon eating the screen to get the credits rolling.
Can't believe I have to wait until April for this. Can't believe the bastards are going to split the last 13 episodes over two seasons. Can't believe the found a way to top the Bastardbowl an episode later.
The height of cruelty, but at least we don't have a painful cliffhanger like we did last year.
