Viewers saw Ellaria (Indira Varna) and her daughter Tyene (Rosabell Laurenti Sellers) survive Euron's massacre at the end of Stormbreaker, and as events moved on in episode three, it became apparent that the Dornish woman and her daughter had been passed over to Cersei for the Lannister queen – and current occupant of the Iron Throne – to avenge her daughter Myrcella's death.

The poison was swilling in the Lannister camp during Sunday's episode (Cersei's lover/brother Jaime dished some out to former ally Olenna Tyrell, too) as Cersei poisoned Tyene with a poisoned kiss in a mimicry of how Myrcella died. Ellaria was forced to watch her daughter suffer after being bound and gagged by Cersei's henchmen. What happened next remains vague, and all the more sinister for it: viewers were not privy to the details of Ellaria's fate, and there are a lot of unpleasant prisons in King's Landing.
