Game Of Thrones: S1E6

The sixth episode of Game Of Thrones season 1 opens in Winterfell when we see Bran Stark suddenly waking up from one of his dreams about the three eyed raven. He is upset thinking about his disability to ever walk again. Poor Bran. So three eyed raven is a crow with three eyes. Thats pretty much you should know about it for now. A group of wildlings attacks him when he is taken to test a saddle prepared by using Tyrion's instruction manual. Robb and Theon manage to rescue Bran and kill rest of the wildlings while capturing one of them called Osha.

In the Vale, Tyrion tricks Lysa to call a public hearing and then demands Trial By Combat. Oh the cleverness! A mercinery fights for Tyrion and defeats Ser Verdis(a knight of the Vale) by pushing him through The Moon Door. That was scary as hell! So Tyrion is free and Cat and Lysa are irritated and furious.

We then move to King's Landing where an injured Ned wakes up only to see Cersei accusing him of attacking Jaime first. She is slapped by King Robert and then she leaves Ned's chambers.(Not a good idea to hit Cersei in front of Ned...When will you learn Robert? ) Worried about his daughters' safety, he asks Arya and Sansa to go back to Winterfell. He realizes that all Baratheons(and their basterds) except Prince Joffrey are 'Black of Hair' and this confirms that Robert and Cercei do not have any legitimate children together.

We then finally get to witness the celebrations at Vaes Dothrak(with their croocked traditions!) when Prince Viserys looses his sh*t! He tries to blackmail Khal Drogo by attacking Danny to force him into giving him an army to take back control of Westeros. Drogo's bloodriders captures Viserys and Drogo decides to give him 'a golden crown' by pouring molten gold over his head! Danny just notes that fire was unable to harm her but it killed her brother. That means he was no real dragon.

Two notable things are there in this series. It never ceases to amuse its audience by introducing innovative ways to kill people. Secondly, it never hesitates to kill people, no matter if they are wildlings, knights or even a Prince! One more interesting thing to note is the evidences people have to prove their theories; the 'black of hair' one or the 'fire cannot kill a dragon' one. I mean who needs DNA tests?
