Game of Thrones- Season 4, Episode 3: Breaker of Chains

Game of Thrones- Season 4, Episode 3: Breaker of Chains



****Spoiler Alert****

Look away now if you've not watched the episode and don't want any Spoilers!!

We did get to see that Lord Baellish ( Aidan Gillen) was behind King Joffrey's death at the start. Of course Tyrion ( Peter Dinklage) was framed for this.

Lord Baellish had also managed to murder the accomplice who smuggled Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) out of the wedding ceremony to his boat

Hear Stansa: Why did you kill him?

Lord Baelish: Because he was a drunk and a fool, and I don't trust drunk fools!!

"....Money buys a man's loyalty for a time. But a bolt in the heart buys his silence forever"

Tywin Lannister ( Charles Dance) is just calculating, measured and ruthless he's the kind of guy who's one step ahead of the game when it comes to power

But he is a colossal failure as a father. He heads a dysfunctional family with off springs who are all unworthy

Check out this line, from the early scenes, where he was counselling Tommen Baratheon ( Dean-Charles Chapman), the dead Joffrey's brother- who will be king now :

"A wise young king listens to his counsellors and heeds their advice until he becomes of age. The wisest kings continue to listen to them even after"

"Your brother was not not a wise king, your brother was not a good king"

Location- the church where Joffrey's ( Jack Gleeson) body laid

Queen Cersei (Lena Headey) wants Tyrion ( Peter Drinklage) dead of course.

One-armed Jaime ( Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) managed to have non-consensual incestuous copulation with his twin sister, Cersei (Lena Headey) while their illegitimate son, Joffrey, lies dead just beside them!!

Tywin also manages to form a postcoital parlay with Oberyn. Apparently, the latter will be among the Jury who will sentence his framed son, Tyrion, to death

Great acting by Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) and

Sandor "The Hound" Clegane ( Rory McCann):

When Arya disapproves of his stealing from a farmer who had been their host

Hear Sandor:

He's weak, he can't protect himself

He'll be dead come winter

Dead men don't need silver!!

Arya: You're the worse thief in the Seven Kingdom

Sandor: There are plenty worse than me. I just understand the way things are.

How many Starks ( Arya's family) do they have to behead before you figure that out!!

Daenerys continues her slave-freeing mission too. Her next stop was Mereen

Her men were falling over themselves to defend her.

Daario Naharis ( Michiel Huisman) defeated the champion of Mereen by throwing a dagger into the showboat’s horse and then chopping off his head!!
