Think Margie's conversion is a sham?
I think it is. Initially i thought she really was converted after her conversation with Tommen, but then i remembered her scene with Loras earlier in the season where she told him not to let the High Sparrow break him. I don't think they would have done that if her conversion was real.
I think that she had decided to play along and give him what he really wanted (Her atonement and Tommen's conversion to his cause) so that she had more freedom to make her move when the time was right. It's not like Tommen wouldn't turn on the High Sparrow the moment she asked him too.
As for why she still went along with her deception during the scene at the sept. I think it was a case of her taking stock of the situation in the moment and realizing that her plan was better than Jamie's. The Lannisters and the Tyrell's may have been able to retake control of the city, but there was no guarantee that her and/or the people she wanted to protect (i.e her brother) would survive it.
Their plan was the nuclear option. I imagine she would rather try to scheme her way out of it with politics (which is now an option for her due to her deception)

I wish the bastard last name in The Reach was Hill just so little Sam would be referred to as Sam Hill

I have this really bad feeling that the truth is Bran made The Mad King mad just like he made Hodor retarded.
Although, I still haven't drawn a connection between the reasoning behind it and the White Walkers moving south other than Bran sharing that vision with the Mad King.

Is anyone else wondering if Jaime will head north at the end of S6 to fight the Walkers? I'm thinking he'll have to choose between helping Cersei at her trial vs. the real threat and he'll go with the ladder (hopefully).
Ideally we get to see more of S3-5 Jaime towards the end of this season since he won't be with Cersei.

Let what go?
You have no clue. These are not spoiled within books unless you have hidden pages of Winds of Winter laying around somewhere. Plus, im simply going out how D&D is using the flashback events.
Its completely asinine to say this isn't a possibility.

If the show does that, I doubt the books do. Targryens could be great or mad, not much in between.

Aerys went mad on his own.

While it may be true that he was very paranoid, especially after Tywin left Kings Landing for awhile. One could say there is a possibility he did not go full crazy, like BURN THEM ALL crazy, until he saw the events of the future.

Man the Hodors really are basically only in this show for violence and titties huh?

I don't. I have a feeling that the point of the Mad King/Jamie vision is going to be to reveal to Bran that wildfire might be a nice weapon to use in the War to Come.
It would be ridiculous if they have him mess up yet another person like that.

No. I really dislike this theory because its just such a cop out for him. Aerys went insane because he was the product of massive incest over generations. He wasnt the first mad Targ king or queen either. Like others, he was obsessed with his dragons and wildfire. He had the city filled with the stuff to burn everyone at once if he wanted. With the enemy in the city, he decided to see them all burn rather than give it up. I think he even though he would be immune to the fire or rise as a dragon when it burned him.
Either way, Jamie could not let that happen as it was his families army taking the city and it was insane in the first place. So he killed the king. Kingslayer

The possibility of Bran's influence on Aerys is a reasonable conjecture given what happened to Hodor but considering the Targaryen history of inbreeding and madness, it would seem more likely that Aerys was simply a product of screwed up genetics.

I did find it interesting they kept showing Aerys screaming "burn them all!" And then either white walkers or COTF, I think there's some kind of connection

I like to think of myself as a Hodor that pays close attention but one thing in this thread I cannot remember. What is Jojen paste?

Once you go down that road, where does it end? Hodor wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed from the start, and there in lies the tragedy of his character. This needs to be a one time thing.
If Bran is responsible for Aerys madness, then he could be responsible for literally anything. Tywin being a sociopath, Ned being obsessed with his honor, Rhaegar taking Lyanna, etc. Seriously, you can not start that. Aerys was just an a-hole and was responsible for his own madness.
