Which one? The first one? Of course. But the rape scene next to their son's corpse? Nope. It wasn't even in the books that way, so if it wasn't necessary there, it wasn't necessary in the series. It also belies Jamie's character arc at that point in the show.

That.... I think the Monty Python gang nailed the reason for that rape scene here:

The outcry at it's lack of necessity made them backtrack, though. After that, sex is much less prominent in the show.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I think it might be Jaime or Cersei.

Fuck, what was I thinking?

Maybe they will experience only near death experiences of a type unlike those championed by L'l Rik.

Fuck. Yeah. New Trailer!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKrhgVFTI6I

There's only :30 worth of trailer, but holy shite a lot.

Wun Wun storming through the gate at Winterfell.
Tower of Joy fight scene.
Drogon eclipsing the sun over the Dothraki horde.
Brienne fighting some Bolton soldiers.
Arya flying through the air probably on a mission to appease the Many Faced God.
Jamie amidst a throng of Tyrell soldiers outside the Red Keep.
Tyrion looking like he's visiting (and maybe releasing?) Viserion and Rheagal.

I am so fucking excited.
