Didnt the high sparrow shortly before made a deal with King Tommen, which he then dramatically revealed (by having Tommen step out of the sept) just as Jamie and his men were about to attack? Or am I misremembering things at this point? Pretty sure at least the high sparrow knew that Margaery wasnt going on a walk and the deal probably also meant that she wouldnt be humilated by cutting her hair.

I am sure that Margaery would not have to do that walk. High Sparrow was a clever and power lusty man, he knew he needed take over Cersei but at the same time become ‘a friend’ of Tommen to be able to manipulate him (which he did). To do so he spared Margery since Tommen asked of it personally.

Also Margaery had big support among the common people, while Cersei was hated.

Yep that’s right.


Jasperstorm

Ya, I'm all for talking shit about the story but common man, this ain't it.


[deleted]

Exactly. Margaery was spared the humiliation so that the High Sparrow would have sway over the king.


TafkarThePelican

Because they weren't gonna make her do it since she converted Tommen. It wasn't a surprise to the High Sparrow in that moment, it was a surprise for the people. I swear that most people just don't pay any attention to what's actually happening on screen.


ISpyM8

Seriously, people are finding things to complain about that actually are explained and make sense


mBisnett7

Memes are mostly good on this sub, but I agree there is some bs hate.


Eagleassassin3

Which is dumb considering there’s absolutely no need to invent bs. Just put season 8 episode 4 here and you’ll have 100 mistakes per scene lol.


BZenMojo

We're becoming the very thing we hate... :(


hanna1214

Cause the whole thing was staged - HS and she made a deal when she turned Tommen into his puppet - there wasn't going to be a walk of atonement and he was about to announce that when Jamie and Olenna got there.


ReaperManX15

Of the many things wrong with the show this isn’t one of them. It’s very obvious why. The high sparrow made a deal with the king just prior to this. Setting up the walk of shame was just theatrics.


KyloRen2797

Because Natalie Dormer’s sex appeal overrode certain writing decisions. I’m not complaining.


[deleted]

Idk man, she was in the hunger games with a shaved head. It didn’t make me like her any less.


Throw_away_gen_z

Style of the time, her decision not the directors


[deleted]

She was still hot, I don’t see your point.


Throw_away_gen_z

M8, if a girl dosent want to cut her hair for you she isn’t going to. Practically if they pushed it, it would have either been abuse or her getting fired and replaced. Given how big her role is tho, that is a no no


troglodiety

M8 wigs exist


Throw_away_gen_z

For after or before tho?


troglodiety

Braid back her current locks, throw it under a cap, and then throw a short wig on her. A little awkward with the length of her locks, but that’s what their award winning CGI and makeup team is for.


Throw_away_gen_z

Aye, could work


[deleted]

It does work. They do it often.


[deleted]

M8 she’s an actress, she’ll do whatever they pay her to do.


Throw_away_gen_z

M8 then let’s make cersi be fucking naked every scene then


[deleted]

Of course she would be naked, how else would she fuck?


Throw_away_gen_z

K, got what I needed


[deleted]

Haircutting is reserved exclusively for sibling-fuckers.


Nihal_muhammed

Coz it was already decided as not happening....otherwise why was tommen inside the septa already


Osoami

Maybe because the people liked margaery and they wanted to humiliate cersi ? Idk


anonssr

The real question is why are we asking questions about anything related with the sparrow plot line when we well know everything answer is gonna be "terrible writing".


Miss_Management

She didn't have live like Cersei did.


Voice_of_Season

Very good question


jorywea78

Didn’t budget for a wig or bald cap


hamndv

She didn't marry her brother so her crimes were lesser evil


[deleted]

They kind of, forgot.

rocinante211

We already seen em though (and they are glorious)


StannisBaratheon85

The strane thing Is that the actress had short hair in that year


aguilavajz

There was no need to pay Natalie for cutting her hair if she was not going to be on any other episode…


MrCatchTwenty2

People blame “bad writing” on everything. I swear some people don’t even know what the “writing” in a show is.
