I think Headey has done a fantastic job so far. I lover her smug looks when she makes her moves that always backfires. She is so amused by how good she thinks she is.

Exactly. Your children are the product of incest with your brother, Jamie Lannister. You give a strict religious cult near unlimited vigilante power to clean up the evils prevalent throughout King's Landing. Meanwhile you have been screwing your Uncle's son, Lancel, and manipulate him in a plot to kill your husband, the king, Robert Baratheon. Lancel then seeks redemption and joins said cult. What could possibly go wrong?

Tyron isn't in the fighting pits in the scene from the trailer because as the action starts he escapes to release the dragons. The seared flesh attracts Drogon and we get the dragons setting up shop all over Meereen. That's my call...

Thus Tywin, Kevan and Varys collective judgment that, while smart (for a woman), she is not nearly as clever as she thinks she is. And LF is starting to run wild because there is a vacuum - no Tywin, no Varys (at least out and about - for the moment), so he is, by an order of magnitude, the most cunning man in Westeros in anything like a position of power.

That's what Stannis' team is missing - some cunning - they've made do with magic, prophecy, stubborness and unfiltered loyalty - but at the end of the day, they're going to have to get their own cunning strategist or they're going to be playing for 3rd.
