But hell naw.....

I heard that it was Ros and I wonder if that's why they killed her off

I was sad when she died, I was hoping her and Shae would team up as a bad ass sex worker duo

Or maybe just tour the seven kingdoms with Pod and perform Dutch sex shows. Whoever it is, it will be a shame..

Haha. I think she had more potential but it was way ****ed up how they killed her off.

Spoiler for book spoilers:

I'm really confused on what they're doing with Shae though, making her all mama bear over Sansa....I can't imagine what theyre going to do about her death scene or w/e

Omg I know right? Are you taking the piss out of me because I feel like I bring this up in any GOT/ASOIAF conversation I get in?....But yeah, it's really really messed up.

Spoiler for Spoiler:

Assuming they stick to events completely (and I can't see how they can deviate them without taking away massively from Tyrion/Tywin) then I can't see how show watchers are going to be happy. They've made her way too "normal" (not really sure how to describe it) but not only from Tyrions viewing of her but from her own actions...which just seems daft to me. They've kinda messed it by giving her too much depth. But guess we'll see what happens...

Spoiler for A Storm of Swords Spoilers:

I can think of a few ways it could go, but I don't think either of them are at all likely

1) The writers start to make her character more jealous and paranoid with Tyrion's marriage to Sansa which will make her eventual betrayal seem more logical.

2) Tywin will find out about Tyrion and Shae and will pressure her into testifying against Tyrion in exchange for her safety, and then execute her anyways, which will be what spurs Tyrion to kill him, supplanting the Tysha subplot from the book.

Those are my theories at least, but they both contain some pretty hefty flaws.

Yeah Pete, I guess they could do either but I would be very disappointed if they did. I just don't think there is anywhere near enough time for the first one to happen, and the second one would take so much away from Tyrion's character/plot/future imo. The Tysha plot is so integral to his character and Shae knows it. Honestly I thought it was one of the best bits in the book but running with it after the way they have built it up, or changing it completely will really mess **** up. I know it's not a crucial detail in the series, I'm just not sure why they bothered to change it? More on Cat or Cersei would have been more interesting if they purely wanted more female screen time.

Personally I think they will just run the same way as the book and just leave it at that. Maybe they feel they will get more of a shock factor from the shows audience after building her up. Cheap thrills.
