What exactly would you have hoped to have happen in this episode? Like, ignoring that the showrunners didn't realize they were filming a rape scene (which it unquestionably was), would you really expect Jaime to reflect on his having raped his sister? Or what?

I can understand people being upset that they severely messed up the portrayal of that scene (given their stated intentions), but even if it were intended as rape, it seems reasonable to expect that Jaime might delude himself into thinking it wasn't and go on living his life. Meanwhile Cersei, as seen in the episode, definitely looked like she was about to have Jaime be put on trial alongside Tyrion.
