Is there any credence to Tyrion being a secret targaryen?

Jamie better recognize who wears the crown.

Also Tywin's last words were "You are no son of mine" right before he got murked on the can.

yeah maybe the mad king aerys somehow got Joanna pregnant despite there being no evidence or hints anywhere, other than the dragons did not kill the guy who took off their chains

I agree, but there are reasons why some people (mostly book readers) believe otherwise.

OK, so how is it that Cersei was first in line for the throne?

This article from a while back shows she was the heir to the throne...http://mashable.com/2016/05/03/game-thrones-heir/#yrij1B6PKuqj
But only because Jaime was in the Kingsguard. After Tommen kicked him out, doesn't that put him back in line for the throne before Cersei?

If Tywin were raising a secret bastard, I think it would be better storytelling if the bastard were Jaime. That way his only real child would be the one he hates. I think all 3 are Lannisters, though.

The Baratheons hold the throne, not the Lannisters. Cersei is a Baratheon by marriage.

The window of a king doesn't just get to be Queen in her own right. That's not how it works. The article explains that going back in Robert B's lineage, the next available living line is the Lannister line that ends in Jaime/Cersei.

That would be one helluva a twist considering Jaime and Cersei are twins  :D

Well, really, what is she queen of? She can declare herself queen of the seven kingdoms all she wants, but with the north claiming independence and Dorne and the Iron Islands (probably Highgarden, too) allied with Daenerys, she really only is ruling King's Landing and what Arya left of the Freys. She won't have the title for very long.

look, it was a good episode because there was enough crap happening that the viewer didn't get bogged down in all the illogical stupid crap that transpired.  but there were still heaping shovelfuls of crap that didn't make any sense.  that's what the show is all about.

Speaking of Varys, dude just teleports back and forth between Dorne and Mereen like it's no big deal.

Why does Varys call Tyrion "Lord Hand"? He isn't lord of anything. Do you get to be a lord just because you are hand of the King?

Seems like it would have been more efficient to just meet Dany in Westeros.

i'm still thinking that Jaime and Cersei have a falling out and that opens the door for Jaime and Lady Brienne.  I have thought that since they first met.

someone should be there to meet them, since by their relative speeds the dragons should be arriving about a week before the ships.  unless they get tired and drown, of course.  i don't know much about long-distance dragon migrations.
