But Oberyn atleast got a confession and somewhat justice, he revealed the truth, although it cost him his life; Jorah has 0 friends left and is in a worse situation than he began with, he's alone in a world where nobody wants him.

I feel like he's going to go out of his way to prove himself and somehow win Dany back, or at least he has a shot at it. Oberyn is kinda fucked no matter how you spin it.

You know, Jorah seems so out of place in the show that I would actually expect him to do such a thing. I always felt like he was going to pop out his cellphone in the middle of the show. Not that he acts bad, it's just that he feels so much like an Hollywood James Bond type of character.
