I just watched the scene again and I agree that her reaction was ... understated. In the books, she has not met Tyrion, so we don't know how she is "supposed to" react, but last night is was a bit of a nothing.

I read one piece a while ago which indicated that Dany is supposed to be conquering Westeros -- instead, she is trying to govern a rebellious slaver city. Things won't go well for her until she gets out of Mereen and focuses on her real purpose. And her final scene in the most recent book advances that plot development. With nothing to go on beyond that point, I think the TV writers really have her "on hold" until next year. So for now she's pretty boring.

I’ve finished Book 5, and maybe I missed something, but I just don’t see what the point is of Jorah taking Tyrion to Dany. What possible leverage could she hold with having Tyrion?

I know he’s a wanted man in Westeros, but so what? Dany could turn him in, for what...gold? She wants to (eventually, hopefully) conquer Westeros, not partner with it...what good would this bargaining chip do?

I just don’t see the point of it. What am I missing?

(Note: this is besides the point that I subscribe to the “Tyrion is the 3rd head of the dragon” theory)
