Tyrion: "Sansa's smarter than she lets on"
J Snow: "She's starting to let on"

That along with their plan wasn't to attack KL, just blockade.

My 'nitpick' is that Tyrion, who we've been led to believe is a pretty smart lad, failed to recognize what was obvious to Jaime - Highgarden was the key to everything for the Lannisters. They were incapable of waging war without it.

Now the question becomes how the hell Dany and her crew are going to do so? They have pretty much no way to support their armies now. They either have to take Highgarden back or take Kings Landing immediately. Hell, even taking Kings Landing only works if the Lannisters eventually give up Highgarden and agree to be ruled by Dany.

Kings Landing can't support itself without provisions from the reach and the westerlands.

So Dany basically has no ships left now, right? How are the Unsullied getting back to Dragonstone?

Long walk and then hang out in the Stormlands?

But yeah, it sure looks like the person who's seat of power is on an island is lacking ships at the moment. Not a good situation to find yourself in.

Yeah, Tyrion should have known especially since he was the master of coin. What he didn't know was how much they borrowed from the iron bank while daddy Tyrell was hand. So that is fairly excusable he didn't know EXACTLY how broke they are. And given how proud Cersei is to be a Lannister it makes sense to think she would defend her ancestral home.

But it really was a lot of cunning from Jamie.

As far as who still has the upper hand, there is no way the Lannisters can eradicate Dany. Even if ever soldier she has dies, she can just hole up in DragonStone and dare anybody to attack.

Amtrack man. It's how everybody cruises around the continent in no time.

In theory, it should be valuable, because she should be able to fly to Casterly Rock and smoke Euron because she then would know where and when he was at a place and can work backward from there.

She has John's ship :-)

She isn't growing any food on Dragonstone. So unless she plans on killing one of her dragons for food....she's fucked if she just "waits it out".

Dany is basically being put in a position where she has to go ride her dragons to turn the war in her favor

Reports coming out saying HBO hacked. Upcoming plot details being leaked. Please put it in spoiler tags if you have to post it here.

They got to Ballers, too!!

Here's what I'd do: Ride to the nearest town. Say, "Send me a boat of food or I'll torch your town." Chow down.

I think they showed her on a dragon in the sneak peek right?

Thank God Euron's a sickly hilarious bad guy, because his Deus Ex Machina fleet fucking Dany's world up at any opportunity is a bit much.

Thankfully, Jamie's feint in sacking Highgarden and leaving a token force to hold Casterly Rock played off of his former battle experience, otherwise it would have been some magically appearing BS to ensure that Cersei is a threat to Dany. One of the most incompetent women (outside of coming up with retribution) in Westeros is suddenly safe and secure and wins so much Donald Trump is jealous? C'mon.

I'm gonna flip shit if Qyburn's ballista one shots a dragon.

You know it's going to happen.
