Specifics aside, I will eat my hat of Little Finger wasn't the grand architect of Joffrey's assassination. His absence from the show thus far hasn't gone unnoticed, which I wouldn't be shocked to learn was a hint of some sort. The showrunners are clearly trying to plant various culprits by reminding us throughout the episode that pretty much every character present at the wedding had some motivation to do Joffrey harm. Now I'm sure a few of them were indeed co-conspirators (namely the Jester - I forget his name, as well as Margaery and Olenna), but yeah, Little Finger has to be the puppet master here.

I agree with other theories that the necklace likely played an important role as well. I doubt Sansa had anything to do with it. If my theory is correct and Little Finger was behind it, there's no way he'd risk implicating her (and potential harm coming to her should the plan go wrong). Whoever was actually responsible, it definitely seems like Tyrion was meant to be framed for the murder.

Entertainment Weekly Interview with Jack Gleeson about the episode and a goodbye video for the fans.

Real shame. Thought Jack was going places.

Next on my death wish list:

4. Danys (boring)

No! She got wonderful personalitits!

 

[Carbonox]

Next on my death wish list:

1. Crsei (bitch)
2. Littlefinger and Varys (manipulative bastards)
3. Tywin (kent)
4. Danys (boring)

I wouldnt be surprised if Dany dies at the hand of her untame dragons and Bran's strength increases so much that he can control the dragons by his mind, thus taking over the iron throne (hence why his visions showed dragons).

This would disappoint me to no end. The one plot I do not care for is the whole "yer a wizard 'arry" shit going on with Bran and his gormless child friends. Utterly insufferable.

I want Dany to wreck shit in Westeros with her dragons. Whether she survives such a thing unscathed or if her dragons end up killing every living thing and using King's Landing as a toilet, I don't care, as long as we see dat judgment day.

 

[Liquidsnake]

Isn't Reeks Sister on her way to help him with an arma of ships?

She left last year, how long doe sit take to get to where she is going?



I miss Little Finger, he was one of my favs. is he even in this season?

 

[BurnOutBrighter]

I don't see what Varys or Littlefinger have to gain by killing Joffrey though. They don't care who is in power, as long as that power is stable and they are in good finances and safe from harm.

Jack Gleeson has always said that he prefers academia to acting. And truth be told it'll be extremely hard for him to play any other type of character, after being one of the greatest TV villains of all time.

 

[CharminUltra]

M0ar Arya, less Bran plz

Best Stark is best!

 

[Liquidsnake]

M0ar Arya, less Bran plz

The only thing in this show that really turns me off is everything Bran. his visions are boring, and im over it.

 

[YesNOnoNOYes]

I enjoyed that episode : D

Joffrey's face at the end was delivering. JACK Gleeson really is a terrific actor. The whole wedding was so hard to watch, specially at Tyrion's expense. Too bad the comeuppance was swift, was the only thing I thought!

Cersei is shaping up to be one of those unreasonable and unhinged woman, at this stage. e.g. she spurns Jaime's advances (he's been back for weeks, but he's not getting any ;__ but she gets crossed with Brienne's confession, she seems to approve of margaery's food leftover thing but then undercuts her behind her back.... out of a heated spark of anger towards ... brienne??... hmm

I hope her character skirted that cheap waters of "crazy woman is crazy" somehow and blossoms into a real hate-worthy, intelligent but horrible character that she could be. Cuz I think Lori in Walking Dead died in many audience's regards in those bracky muck.

Anyway. Loved Bronn, loved Joff (in a hatehatehate way), and loved Tyrion in that episode. Great season so far < 3

Joffrey's face at the end was delivering. Alex Gleeson really is a terrific actor.

I think you mean Jack Gleeson lol

 

[Curufinwe]

Why do people "hate" Ramsay?

Dude's awesome! Love what he's doing with good ol Reak!

Cause he tortures innocent women to death. I don't find that awesome.

Better get that nacho hat ready.

I miss him too! I hope we will see him soon. I love the three 'brains' in King's Landing (Tyrion, Varis, Littlefinger). When they are dancing in the same court, you can almost hear the blades crossing each other's throat oh so finely.

 

[Ultimadrago]

The only thing in this show that really turns me off is everything Bran. his visions are boring, and im over it.

Yeah, I'm ready for him to find something awesome to do with his Warg powers like head a pack of wolves that he controls all at will or, if he crosses paths with Daenerys assaulting the Main Lands, to control a dragon and combat the Unsullied with it.

Let the Blood of Wargs take over, Bran.

 

[NomarTyme]

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

yessss the little shit got flushed.

"Widow's Wail, I like that"

Dude's gotta sick side, didn't say he was all clean. But that's always the case in these games ... OF THRONES!

 

[Ultimadrago]

"Widow's Wail, I like that"

Oh Cat.

Why do people "hate" Ramsay?

Dude's awesome! Love what he's doing with good ol Reak!

Yeah, I got a big kick out of him torturing Theon.

 

[Loxley]

Better get that nacho hat ready.

It will be delicious

My new favorite theory.

;__;

dat quote. dat image

joff was such an atrocious character. so good to hate on.


....and lol suzaku XD

100%. I hang on their every word. Little finger has some of the best dialogue in the show.

Varys only serves the realm

 

[p01ar]

The War of the 5 Dwarf Kings was great. In case you missed the significance of some of the symbolism here you go

 

[Orin GA]

so south park lied about the penises hitting him in the face just before the posioning?

 

[YesNOnoNOYes]

100%. I hang on their every word. Little finger has some of the best dialogue in the show.

yes yes. i agree very much. such sasssss < 3

p01ar, wow, .... hahah. omg. that's so horrible. (and good).... hahah, those mounts, wtf

 

[Curufinwe]

It will be delicious

You could be right, but I just feel like it would be crazy for Littlefinger to do something so risky as regicide when he's never been in a better position and when he had a good relationship with his friend the King.

 

[Liquidsnake]

yes yes. i agree very much. such sasssss < 3

p01ar, wow, .... hahah. omg. that's so horrible. (and good).... hahah, those mounts, wtf

Last season when he and Sansa were talking and she decided to stay Lord Baelish had the best delivery i have ever heard.

Who can site it?

"hearing your concern for my well being..........."

It was such amazing delivery.

 

[FTF]

Great episode and enjoyed Joffrey finally getting his comeuppance...regardless of the fact that Southpark spoiled it for me (which was ok because the wiener song was so funny lol).

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

THE FALSE CUNT KING IS DEAD!

Posted yet? RoC by Sigur Ros http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=w3QW8PVyyNM

Great song. I lol'd when they popped up in the episode.

 

[Cyan]

How could it be Littlefinger? Isn't he up at the Aeyrie with the crazy mom?

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Kind of annoyed I got spoiled and knew some shit was going down when someone called it the "Purple Wedding". For a second there I was afraid Tyrion was going to bite the dust.

Also, #TeamSansa did it

 

[Jetman]

My new favorite theory.

LOL - definitely

 

[Minion101]

Names from the leech spell

"The usurper Robb Stark, the usurper Balon Greyjoy, the usurper Joffrey Baratheon"

 

[CountAntonius]

Well see ya later Balon.

 

[pringles]

The only thing in this show that really turns me off is everything Bran. his visions are boring, and im over it.

But...that's the best storyline. To me that's the 'main' plot. Everything else is secondary. I wish Osha was still around but it's still the storyline that keeps me the most hooked.

Though I think they manage to keep every plotline interesting. Daenerys is probably the one that has always made me yawn a bit.

 

[Grimsen]

Now that Joffrey's dead, Marge is probably gonna go back and try to bang Steve Rogers.

 

[Loxley]

How could it be Littlefinger? Isn't he up at the Aeyrie with the crazy mom?

That's true, but given this show's history with characters meddling with other characters in a very passive-aggressive way, it wouldn't be too hard to imagine Littlefinger was involved in the planning from afar.

Again, I could be completely off base with this. At the very least it's abundantly clear that Olenna was directly involved.

 

[Dawg]

I like how, at the beginning of the wedding, Tyrion thought Oberyn said hey to him and then you get that priceless reply that he was talking to that whore and not Tyrion.

Really liking Oberyn so far.

 

[Nameless]

The War of the 5 Dwarf Kings was great. In case you missed the significance of some of the symbolism here you go

Joffrey's reactions were priceless throughout this.

 

[Maffis]

The biggest cunt now is easily Ramsay. He's even more of a cunt than Joffrey.

Locke is higher on my cunt scale. His face alone makes me want to murder things.

 

[Portugeezer]

I thought the hooker he "saved" (when you don't see it you never know!) was going to be in the pie.

 

[Jayof9s]

Probably had to cut it from TV, even HBO can't get away with everything.

 

[Ultimadrago]

No one has brought up Small Councilman Pycelle. While not topping many lists, I want that old fart gone forever.

 

[BurnOutBrighter]

I was just about to mention that scene were Cersei absolutely deals with the creeper. I don't know why they don't just ignore him. It's not like he's a threat to anyone.

Also, is Oberyn only into guys and just has Ellia around to play a straight man in public? She jumped on him super fast after Oberyn stabbed that guy to make sure Tyrion and Bronn had a strong impression of Oberyn.

 

[HeisenbergLannister]

Watched it again, and I still can't get over how Margeary looks absolutely disgusted over everything Joffrey does, when before she's tolerated him.
