OK…enough time has passed and everyone with an Internet connection now knows that the evil boy-king Joffrey Baratheon was killed on this past Sunday’s episode of GAME OF THRONES. Now all attention turns to just whodunnit? Like any good murder mystery there are a ton of suspects so I have gone thorough the list to see who had cause to see Joff dead and the likelihood that they would actually do it.

Game of Thrones Scene of the Week: The Eunuch vs The Imp

April 9, 2012November 2, 2013 Derek

I love when characters I really like have an extended scene together and since Tyrion is my absolute favorite GoT character and Varys is in my top 5, I was ecstatic watching their civil yet veiled sparring session. When Tyrion walked into his room and saw Varys sitting there having a pleasant chat with Shae you could just see the rage boiling up in him. He realizes that Varys traffics in information and now the eunuch had info on him that could (and most likely will) be used as a weapon against him sometime in the future. And the way the scene ended with Tyrion making sure Varys knew that he was not dealing with someone like Ned Stark who was totally out of his element in the cutthroat, shark infested waters of the Small Council and Varys reminding Tyrion that no matter what upheaval occurs within the kingdom The Spider always survives. Great scene and I can’t wait to see them go at it again.
