They set out.Īt Winterfell, Bran has another dream of the Three-Eyed Raven. Yoren now has to get them all to the Wall, a thousand leagues away, through the war-torn Riverlands. Gendry breaks up the argument by taking Arya's side, threatening the boys with violence to keep them from picking on Arya later. Hot Pie and Lommy try to bully Arya into giving up Needle, but she angrily draws the sword, warning that she "has already killed one fat boy" and will happily do it again. He had been working for Tobho Mott, but with Robert dead, the secret funds being sent to Mott stopped, so he fired Gendry and told him he had to join the Night's Watch. Also in the group are Hot Pie, Lommy Greenhands, and Gendry, who unknown to him, is King Robert's bastard son. Pretending that Arya is a boy called "Arry", he has her join the group. Yoren has assembled a band of new recruits for the Night's Watch.
He then proceeds to ask if they took both the "pillar" as well as the "stones." They are interrupted by Joffrey arriving, asking if they are ready to begin a small council meeting. Littlefinger quips that he is one of the few men in the city who isn't a man, referring to him being a eunuch.
When Littlefinger flips the question and asks this of Varys, Varys says he must be one of the few people in the city who doesn't want to be king. Varys asks how Littlefinger envisions himself sitting on the Iron Throne. Littlefinger and Varys speak in front of the Iron Throne. He resumes his act after he dresses and leaves his chamber. After Ros leaves, Pycelle stands and limbers up, revealing that he is not as frail in mind and body as he lets on. Grand Maester Pycelle takes the prostitute Ros to bed, boasting of the several great kings he has served, lamenting first how Aerys Targaryen devolved from a charming young man into a paranoid lunatic obsessed with fire, how Robert Baratheon was a great soldier, but perhaps not so ideal a king, before displaying his sycophantic loyalty to Joffrey. He asks for the news of the war and asks what their next move is, but Cersei tells him to shut up and get back in bed. The thought of being at war is exciting to him, as he has just been made a new young knight. She also receives a letter informing her of Jaime's capture. Sansa moves up behind Joffrey, apparently preparing to shove him off the walkway to his death, but unexpectedly Sandor Clegane dabs the blood off her lip with a handkerchief and after Joffrey leaves, tells her to give him what he wants.Ĭersei Lannister has taken a new lover, her cousin Lancel who was King Robert's squire. Infuriated, Joffrey orders Ser Meryn Trant to beat her, as Cersei has told him that a king should not hit his queen. Sansa quietly retorts that Robb might give her Joffrey's instead. He cruelly mocks her, promising he will give her Robb's head next. Joffrey then takes Sansa up to the walls to see her father's head mounted on a spike and makes her look at it. Joffrey commands Ilyn Payne to cut out his tongue instead. Marillion fearfully responds that everyone needs hands. Joffrey asks Marillion if he wants to keep his hands or tongue. The singer turns out to be Marillion, who Catelyn and Ser Rodrik met at the Inn at the Crossroads, and who accompanied them and Tyrion to the Vale of Arryn.
The song says that the boar might have killed King Robert, but the lion in his bed had previously castrated him. Joffrey is holding court and a singer is brought before him, charged with making up an amusing but offensive song about Robert and Cersei. He tells her that he will get her out of King's Landing and to Winterfell as a recruit of the Night's Watch, but he warns her not to trust the other recruits, since apparently half would hand her over to Cersei for a pardon, while the other half would do the same, but only after raping her first. Once he gets her out of the courtyard, he cuts her hair off with a knife. In the crowd, Yoren drags Arya away, making a point of calling her "Boy". The great sword Ice is covered in blood, and Sandor Clegane standing next to Ser Ilyn Payne, the royal executioner, holds Lord Eddard's head up to the adulation of the baying crowd. Across the sea, Dany pays a terrible price for her love, but finds new hope.Īt the Great Sept of Baelor, Eddard Stark has been executed by beheading. At the Wall, Jon is forced to choose between the Night's Watch and the family he left behind. Meanwhile, Arya assumes a new identity in an attempt to escape King's Landing, and Sansa is terrorized by Joffrey. After a surprising decision by his father, Tyrion heads south. As tragic news spreads across the Seven Kingdoms, Bran and Rickon share a prophetic dream, Catelyn interrogates Jaime about her son's fall, and Robb's destiny is forever changed.
