4. The Romulans Send Their Regards

And speaking of shallow and predictable things that are, in actual fact, becoming quite interesting, the relationship between Jaime and Cersei Romulan feels a more compelling reason to tune in every single week now. Will they betray each other? Will they kill each other? Will they just get it over with and smash? It really shouldn't work but the constant tension between the two is Very Good TV.

Somewhere down the line, Narek will atone for his sins against a woman he's clearly fallen madly in love for, and it'll likely be his sister who bears the brunt of this. It would be an unspectacular trope to have him simply lay down his life to save Soji, but if handled right it might not be as bad as it sounds. Either way, the inevitable showdown between these two is going to be explosive.
