OK, no I'm down with this. Cersei picks Bronn as a strategic move and Jaime volunteers for Tyrion against Tyrion's will (I doubt he'd want his one-handed brother fight Bronn).

Bronn sparring with Jaime has set up for an epic duel. Plus it was foreshadowed in the last episode here. Are you gonna fight for him now?

Bronn vs Jaime duel to the death, book it!

Hmm, the only people who'd fight for Tyrion are Bronn, Jamie and Pod (and he's gone).

Bronn could go either way imo. We've been reminded countless times he's a sellsword but he showed flashes of loyalty towards Tyrion. He might just say "**** it" like the first time and help him.

I see Jaime going in only if he's feeling suicidal or just doesnt care anymore (he does care for his brother tho meaning him fighting would result in the death of both). Or maybe he'll train like JCvD and in a month he'll be the best swordsman again.

Im not counting Tywin out. He showed enough care for the Lannister name (when he told Tyrion that he didnt kill him when he was born because he was a Lannister). He might pay someone to fight for Tyrion. Could go either way, obv.

Maybe Jaime convinces Cercei that Tyrion is innocent, there are so many possible outcomes .

Of one thing im certain, someone important will die ( Bronn,Jaime or/and Tyrion, imo). Ive come to accept Game of Thrones for what it is, ruthless.

The only people that cant die (lol) without their arc going to **** are Brann, Arya and Dany. I see John Snow as the future Rob, that sneaky Bolton man is gonna get him.

ya why would she pick Bronn when she could just have him locked up instead.
04-29-2014 , 08:54 AM
Looking forward to the adventures of Brienne and Pod.

Jamie's story is really weird. Last week he rapes a grieving mother, this week we are supposed to believe he is going to help his brother and try to save Sansa from his sister.

Because she watched S1 of Spartacus. RIP Varro.

I don't think she can make Bronn fight though. Obviously he'd probably have to leave KL after and no longer be a knight, but I didn't get the impression from the other trial by combat that someone could be forced to be a champion.

Lots of guys will fight for money.

They are really setting John Snow up like he is going to end up running the wall. SO he probably either does or dies in some back handed way. I'd put my money on him making it through.

Tywin is running it, not sure if he allows it.
If she picked the mountain I suspect that dude that wants to kill him because of his sister would volunteer to fight.

Tywin promised him a chance at revenge. Seems like this would be a chance.

Dude kills mountain, Tyrion is free, Cersi goes crazier, Tywin thinks he is in charge of everything because he eliminates Cersi's influence over boy king?

have we been watching the show? Seems the opposite would happen if things hold true to what has happened so far.

If it goes to trial by combat I can definitely see this happening.

I saw someone mention it a few pages back, but wtf is a Wight? Is that someone who died north of the wall and didn't have their body burned? Did they explain this at some point? And how is this different than a White Walker?

I like this. Can def see this being how it plays out.

However I'd prefer to see Tyrion defend himself in an actual trial, because his cross-examining would surely be awesome.

Did I miss a scene? My Dvr cut out due to storms, but it seemed to pick up on the same scene. Everyone seems to be talking about a trial by swordfight for Tyrion, but I didn't see that mentioned at all in the episode
04-29-2014 , 11:19 AM
You didn't miss anything.

We're just speculating on whether Tyrion would choose trial by combat like he did at the Eyrie.

There's no indication that this is going to happen, just speculation. During last episode's scene of Jamie and Bronn sparring, trial by combat was mentioned, and I think it just sparked the idea in people's heads. It did for me - I had completely forgotten that it was an option.

Hey guy who mentioned me in the Lounge thread (not going in there):

Tough ****.

Don't watch the show or read this thread if the books are more important to you.

Huh? For the 1st 3 seasons it was implied that the dead returned as white walkers unless u burned them, the opening scene of the 1stepisode shows the dead little girl who comes bk as a WW, the baby thing is new but I'm pretty sure that isn't how they increase their numbers.

I think "Wights" is what they come back from if they die as human.

If the WW are turning babies instead of killing them (which I assume is what they do to everyone else), then this is something different.

I'm pretty sure you are always allowed a trial by combat. They gave Tyrion one in the Erie and they probably could have just screamed guilty and chucked him out the hole.

WW is the monstery versions, a Wight is a human that's reanimated.

not at all bc of their situations but more bc of how they are written and how they all seem to be the fan favs.
Agree with all apart from tyrion but not cos they fan favs they've pretty much shown no one is safe. When they killed ned I was shocked then even more shocked when rob an Co got killed it was like the entire story line for 3 seasons just ended lol? It was that point it ( finally) clicked they've been screwing us around with all the throne beef it's all about the dragons and white walkers

The way things are going along with random lines from the show I think the above will be be big players when the WW March, dany with her dragons and bran with his warg thing I don't really have a reason for Jon or arya but just get the feeling they'll still be around

I haven't seen this is the show? Is this confirmed or just something the thread has come up with?

Wasnt sure because its the King that was murdered, figured they'd pull a Ned on Tyrion.
