Dorms was awful but I loved the scene with Jaime and myrcella. That is until she (likely) died.

i knew she was gonna die after that. whenever HBO writes a death, they try to get you more attached to the character first via a couple emotional scenes. they did the same thing with Shireen. it will however be very interesting to see what happens next. the lannisters are no longer in a position to go to war with Dorne. and Tristain is now essentially a Lannister hostage.

I don't think she is evil.
She does things because she believes they will further the cause for the greater good. I'm not aware of her doing evil stuff without proper motivation.
Fanatic or extremist seem more appropriate.

shes evil as fuck, im just not sure that shes aware of it. of all the red priests we've met (Melisandre, Thoros, Moqorro, and Benerro), Mel appears to be the least proficient at her skills. i dont think shes purposely misled Stannis, but i think one of two things happened. either the flames showed her what she needed to see to get her to the wall to meet Jon, or she misinterpreted the visions in the flames and mistook visions of Jon for visions of Stannis. only time will tell exactly which side of the fence the red god is on. but as it stands now, she appears to be against the whitewalkers, i just dont think she cares what price she pays to satisfy her god. (fwiw, remember Mel is from Assai. a lot of people think the red god is super real because they've seen Mel's magic. but Melisandre comes from a land full of supposed dark magic users. its very possible most of her tricks are not acts of the red god, but moreso tricks designed to convert people to their religion. i also dont expect any of the gods to play any role in the battle of ice and fire.)
