Jaime's entire life has been defined by him killing the Mad King - and all those seasons ago do you not remember him talking about how he did it to stop the Mad King burning down KL? It's how he defended his honour - he saved the city. For Cersei to do the one thing that he's proud of stopping happening, and their son to die in the process, as he watched her go as Mad as the Mad King... he'll kill her.
On the bright side; the Greyjoy fleet (whether it be Yara's or Euron's magically constructed fastest fleet in the universe) should make for an interesting naval battle outside Meereen in Episode 10.

Idk about the wildfire thing, that's probably going to come into play somehow, with or without Cersei, but Jamie aint killing her. That doesn't make any type of sense no matter how you spin it. His character will probably go through a big change and will probably have to "let her go" and find his purpose with the "good guys" or something.
Bran's vision with the mad king and the wildfire in KL. That time, all those seasons ago, when Tyrion went to the Alchemist's Guild to get wildfire to defend KL from Stannis - and the Alchemist Chief said that he was taking orders from Cersei. The 'little birds' going over the city and seeing if the rumours are true - the stashes of wildfire placed there by the Mad King. Cersei's last hope being taken due to the abolition of Trial by Combat?
As for why Jaime will kill her - Brienne just reminded him of his honour. And Cersei's prophecy from that witch said that her brother would kill her after all her children died. She always thought it would be Tyrion... but is it really?
Looking forward to watching Cersei burn down King's Landing with wildfire, accidentally killing Tommen in the process, and then getting killed by Jaime in revenge.
this plus cleganebowl plus all those dumb arya theories were all debunked this episode. LSH won't be in the show since barrick dondarion and the other guy is still alive. Tommen also said trial by combats are done.
A lot of things from the books are starting to come to light at the end of this season. They are just doing it out of order - or well, possibly in order since the series itself isn't written chronologically.
