He murdered her. Tyrion, truly, is sucks to be you. I'd rather say it sucks to be Shae...
I loved how they changed Tyrion/Jaimie/Shae ending from the books. This Tyrion, the show Tyrion, I can still keep. Book Tyrion I could no longer care about, and was very sad about that.
What I hated about bringing up Tysha in the books is that it obscured what Tyrion did to Shae. That it appeared that his grief and rage with Jaimie and Tywin was all about Tysha, while Shae lay there murdered by his own hands, having suffered same fate as Tysha, betrayed and used by Tyrion same way as Tysha - as Tyrion abandoned Tysha after the ordeal Tywin put her through, because she didn't live up to his expectations, if we look at at it point blank.
In the show Shae's killing wasn't deliberate, it was in a fit of rage during the struggle. Tyrion was horrified by it when he came to his senses, and his talk to Tywin was about Shae, not about Tysha. She served same purpose to the plot - Tywin had her to prove to Tyrion (and to himself) that no one could love Tyrion for real, while we knew, and Tyrion knew, that she did. His rage pver calling *her* whore, the real woman right there, not idealized Tysha, moved me much more.
As for fallout with Jaimie - it never played any role in the books, and it was completely out of left field. I'm not complaigning about them being friends, as I'm sure if they would ever meet in the books they would resolve it quickly through some ordeal or other and will be friends again.
Otherwise - so happy that they cut out horrible stuff with Bloody Mummers and Brienne, and streamlined it for her to meet Arya and Hound. My only regret was that she didnt show Arya that bread that Hot Pie made her... They might have soften Arya up...
Not happy about seeing Zombie!Clegane, as you may guess. :) Well, at least they cut one zombie out - was never fond of Stoneheart. Zombie!Clegane makes me mad for the same reason as Renly's Shadow baby: why does Martin have to cheat and create some cheesy monsters out of the left field to destroy folks from my camp? :D My camp being Renly-Tyrells, yep, still rooting for them. :)
