And this is where I get confused, because I love show!Doreah and am all for faux lesbian titillation (standards, I have none), but at the same time there are levels of skeeviness involved in killing off all the Dothaki except for the white girl who was dead by this point in the books anyway. And I'm still not sure why they killed Rakharo only to leave Dany with that one bloodrider who doesn't even have a name yet, give the poor lad a name!
I loved Tyrion's line about Joffrey being like Robert, because I do think part of what Joffrey becomes is a result of identifying with the abuser. But, yeah, I agree that if they aren't planning to change up Tyrion and Cersei's respective stories significantly then they're going to have to walk a lot of that scene back. Which is a shame, because it was a great scene.
Cersei's scene with Sansa was fabulous too, which I didn't talk about only because I've basically been reduced to writing sonnets about Sophie Turner's face every time she appears onscreen.
