My guess is that they followed the river rather than taking the Rose Road to avoid potential ambushes by the various outlaw groups that live in the woods in that region. Not a bad idea, because going off-roading puts you in an area where you have wide, clear lines of sight and open fields. In fact the only thing that could possibly go wrong is if you were attacked by a marauding group of horse riders. Oh wait...

Haha...so did the wagon full of gold to pay the iron Bank get torched? The Iron Bank will have its due no matter who sits the Iron throne. Westeros is in huge debt to them. Jaquen Hagar may have to return if that debt is not paid.....I'm hoping he does. In the books it's noted that the Iron Bank has hired the faceless men to deal with those who didn't pay back debts.....

When Randyl Tarly rode up at the beginning of the scene, he confirmed with Jaime that the last of the gold had made it through the gates of Kings Landing. Cersei's scene with the Iron Bank representative shows that she's not going to leave the Crown debt-free, however; I seem to remember her mentioning the hiring of the Golden Company mercenary group to assist with pacifying Westeros. Who better to fight a marauding horde of Dothraki than arguably the greatest company of sellswords in Essos, right?

That link again:

This would be a convenient opportunity for Dany to hire/sweet talk Daario & the Second Sons to assist in her war of conquest. Quick and easy way for the show to kill off Daario and wrap up another loose end from the Slaver's Bay saga

I watched it again and Tarley does not say the gold has made it to kings landing yet. Jamie gives Bronn a bag from the gold wagon at that same time. Later, Cersei talks about hiring the golden company and other things and the banker says, "When the gold arrives." I see no proof from episode 4 anywhere that the gold has made it through the gates of KL. I agree with you that Dario and 2nd Sons will join. Also, will the unsullied free Edmure Tully from the Lannister dungeons in casterly rock?

BB, watch the first 30 seconds of this video. As Randall rides up, he says, "All the gold's safely made it through the gates at King's Landing" and Jaime replies, "Good" and vigorously nods his head.
