Game of Thrones (spoiler-free zone)
A few have suggested it, might as well test the waters. The idea is to give people who haven't read the books a safe place to talk about the show.
A few quick ground rules:

She wanted to but he said "death is certain, the time is not". It could have taken him months or years to take out Tywin or Joffrey. By that time, it wouldn't have mattered so much to her anyway. I'm not saying naming Tywin, Joffrey and Jamie, etc. wouldn't have been the best choice, but.. Plus, she was like 9 years old at the time. Can't judge too harshly. |

She wanted the Tickler dead, then she was caught snooping through Tywin's things, so she had the man about to tell Tywin killed to save herself. To get out of imprisonment she had to name Jaquen to get her out. Her situation, at the time, dictated her choices more than her desires.

As I remember, the Tickler was the first name she gave and seemed to be more of a trial run than anything. Remember, at the point he told her she had 3 names to give to the Red God, she had no idea he was an assassin.
Once she saw that he killed the Tickler, she started naming Tywin and Joffrey but he said he couldn't guarantee their deaths would be swift. Then she got caught snooping or whatever and needed Tywin's henchman killed immediately. The "final" name ended up being all the guards on watch the night she escaped. "A girl lacks honor". |

Just watched this episode last night, fitting that it looked like a painful way to go.
