They raped Dorne. They murdered it.

I think I know why they went this route. Given the clusterfuck last season and the time constraints, they needed to get things moving fast in Dorne, and killing off Doran and putting the Sand Snakes in charge was an easy way to do that.

Still, it doesn't change the fact that they have completely wasted an interesting character from the books, and that none of this makes any god damn sense. Ellaria wants to avenge her husband so...her and her daughters conspire to assassinate his brother. Wut?

Doesn't help that these are the only Dornish characters left, and they are all shit. Ellaria and the Sand Cunts. Book Sand Snakes are pretty cool. The show versions are just annoying.

Also, what was with the Dothraki scenes? Why did the show suddenly decide to turn into a medieval sitcom? The bro's talking about banging Dany and the insubordinate henchmen correcting their Khal on all the things that are better than seeing a beautiful woman naked felt really out of place.

Oh, I did like the episode tho. It was pretty good, with the exception of the above.

I just realized that Ellaria and the Sand Snakes literally wiped out the Martell line.
