He will pour wine and reminice about Oberyn, Ellaria and him seemingly bond.

Suddenly he mentions how Myrcella was sent to Dorne and how he heard about what happened to her.

Ellaria begins to have a nosebleed, along with Obara Sand and Tyene Sand. Nymeria freaks out.

He mentions about how they thought he'd just forget that and how they expected to rule after slaying their own kin.

Ellaria, Obara and Tyene die and Tyrion says 'A Lannister always pays his debts' to Ellaria before she dies.

Nymeria is horrified and begs for mercy. He mentions that she will be left alive for multiple reasons. Loyalty to Oberyn, as a message and because she didn't directly kill anyone. Ellaria killed Myrcella and Doran, Obara killed Trysdane and Tyene poisoned Bronn and killed Areo Hotah. She is made Princess of Dorne and legitimsed but Tyrion makes sure to always surround her with Lannister men and that if she tries to betray him she will be immediately executed.

Very, very nice! Slight alternative version: Nymeria betrays her sisters and Ellaria by informing Tyrion of their plot against his life. Her price? Elevation to Princess of Dorne.

Betrayal and eliminating one's rivals always plays well in Westeros.
