The show cut Willas entire, and the amputation rearranged House Tyrell: Loras became heir (inventing the Faith's designs on Highgarden's succession), and the Willas marriage plot was rewritten as a SansaÔÇôLoras betrothal, trading the books' poignant stranger for a familiar face and losing the joke that Sansa's dreamed-of husband is the one Tyrell nobody could caricature. His absence also thins the books' larger argument that House Tyrell's bench ÔÇö heir, spare, and champion ÔÇö ran deeper than any rival's, which is precisely why the books' Reach is harder to destroy in an afternoon.
