We start this week’s episode picking up after the stunning defeat of the Lannister’s. Bronn recovers Jamie and drags him to land while telling him that the only person who is allowed to kill Jamie is Bronn (at least until Bronn gets his comeuppance).

Game of Thrones: Will Cersei Play A Major Role in the War Against the White Walkers?
There’s a lot of speculation about how Cersei will die with the prophecy of the Valonqar commonly connecting her demise to Tyrion and possibly Jamie Lannister.

Game of Thrones: Will Dragonstone Play A Role in the Future?
