We are not trying to be dicks here. In order for threads like this to be worth a shite, we need participants. I think we just have very differing opinions. The fact that you suck on Big Al's honker has nothing to do with it (j/k man).

It's not about being dicks. I get that some people have certain mindsets as to how they think things will play out. I understand that.

My position is that we have a prominent character (Cersei) that is happy that another character (Margaery) will be represented by a trial by combat, if she chooses one, by inadequate members of the KG that will be easily defeated by her accuser. Once Cersei is arrested she feels that she will suffer the same fate until she learns that she can add another member of the KG (Robert Strong) and she finally gains peace in the situation.

I know that Margaery wants a traditional trial. That's not the issue here. Cersei was speculating on her options if she chose a trial by combat, nothing more. As a Queen they are to be represented by the KG in these matters. She based her thoughts on the assumption that Margaery would take that route. We know that Cersei is taking that path. Hence her relief that RS would be her champion instead of Blount and Moore.

I don't understand the confusion.
