If Oberyn gets defeated, Tywin better STOP THE drat MATCH before the Mountain kills him or I will hate GRRM even more than I already do. Introducing a character that cool, nuanced and potentially important only to off him so quickly would be lovely writing even for GRRM.

Ned Stark died in 9 episodes. It would be perfectly consistent for GRRM to introduce and kill off Oberyn in 8.

Can someone give me an example of why the prose in the book is bad? I feel like a dude who writes Tyrion/Bronn dialogue can't be a bad writer

Melisandre said last season that the 'true battle' was in the North, which could either mean Night's watch vs Mance's army or humanity vs white walkers.

Theon vs. Reek

I can't tell if being played by 3 different dudes means Mountain is more likely or less likely to die

I just wanna see Sansa have a wild sex scene. Shes been married or betrothed how many times now? And never gets any booty. Meanwhile...Denaerys

Are we requesting sex scenes? I want one with Nana Tyrell/Tywin and also would like Oberyn to reveal that his hate for the Mountain was actually just sexual tension.

And the Mountain has the Viper on the ropes, looks like he's signalling for the Sherpa Killer! A hopeless situation for the Red Viper. But wait, IS THAT SANDOR CLEGANE'S MUSIC

Manager Petey "The Brain" Baelish declares that the only way for Oberyn to win the Trial by Combat is to bodyslam the Mountain.

Oberyn has Clegane in the Cobra Clutch! The mountain is going to tap! The mountain is going to tap! But wait a gorgeous blonde is doing a sexy dance on the apron and distracting the Viper!

*The royal minstrels play Every Rose Has Its Thorn*

Its Loras Tyrell! Oberyn can't keep his eyes off the pillowbiter, and doesn't notice the mountain reaching for a steel chair...
