There was really no reason to destroy her like that, and it doesn't mesh up at all with the Jaime that knighted her just two episodes ago. Really all they had to do was have Jaime bring up his unborn child and Brienne would've understood. She'd be sad, but she'd get it. I'm with you 100%, this is the only thing I've really not liked The other weird thing about this scene is that Jaime doesn't leave until it sounds like Cersei has a chance to win. He doesn't march down when Dany leaves with two dragons and a fleet of ships. It isn't until that fleet is decimated and a dragon is dead and Sansa goes "oh looks like I won't see her executed" that he goes and takes off. At this point, Jaime has more reason to believe that Cersei will win than he has had at any point since the field of fire. So what was his plan? This episode he was going to escape with her once things turned sour, but there was less of a reason for him to believe things will turn sour when he left than when he chose to stay. I am a bit confused by his motivation here and the timing of him leaving didn't make much sense to me in context with the episodes that came after it. Like in the books (I know, lol me), Cersei sends him a message literally begging, pleading for his help. I love you I love only you I will die if you don't help me I need you please I beg you come to me please please please. He throws that in the fire and then goes to find Brienne instead. I know book Jaime and show Jaime are different characters. But his treatment of Brienne and the timing of his return both feel sloppy to me. Again, like the writers knew ultimately what would happen but couldn't figure out a way to get there. I think Jaime and Dany's character arcs not being fully fleshed out and feeling rushed have been the worst part of this season to me. Both of these things needed a bit more time to breathe. --- Moops? "I thought you were making up diseases?
