Game of Thrones Recap
Season 4, Episode 3
**SPOILER ALERT
This week’s episode, “Breaker of Chains,” has the rest of the kingdom clamoring over the death of Joffrey Baratheon and it is the who dunnit of the GOT world and no it wasn’t JR. Let’s talk about what happened and get down to the nitty gritty of the deets, my GOT peeps.
Everyone thinks Sansa helped Tyrion kill JB. Yes he has the same initials as Justin Bieber… coincidence, I think not. Luckily, Dontos scurried her away and brought her to Littlefinger in the depths of the Black Water. As Littlefinger once told Sansa, everyone in the city lies and he proceeds to kill Dontos. Woops, poor guy, but at least he did not die in vain.
As Joffrey’s body lies in the tomb, Cersei seems to the only person who is mourning his death. Quickly and evilly, Tywin is already getting ready to groom JB’s brother, Tommen, to be the next great king. He acts as if nothing ever happened and he has zero remorse for his grandson. It is obvious that he knew that Joffrey would be a bad king as he listened to no one, thus Tywin is trying to plant the seed and tell Tommen he needs to listen to his council in order to be a good, wise king. Yes my spidey sense, tells me TYWIN DID IT! I am sure some of you guys know who did and seriously I hate you guys right now!
Jamie comes in to talk to Cersei and yeah they start making out and he proceeds to ravage her next to the body of their dead son. WTF! But I guess we can expect no less from people who indulge in incest. EWWWWWWWWW… people get a room.
(He’s watching you guys…creepy!)
Poor Tyrion is still in his cell and it feels as if they are going to judge him unfairly whether he likes it or not.
Oberyn and Ellaria have a threesome or fivesome, not sure how many bodies were there and then Tywin comes in to interrupt. Hello… can’t you see they are getting their Game of Thrones on. Tywin tells Oberyn, who is known as the master of poisons, that because of this he looks suspicious, but regardless will put him on the counsel to judge Tyrion for his alleged crimes. He wants to create an alliance with Dorn and tells him that they need each other. Oh boy this all sounds so fishy!
(Ummmm thanks for interrupting Tywin geez)
The Wildlings invade a village and get crazy status, Ygritte uses her bow and arrows with more prowess than Daryl Dixon and Katniss Everdeen. Werk it girl. Well they kill off everyone, but a little boy and they tell him to go to the wall and send a message that they are coming soon. Uh oh! Wait till she sees Jon Snow… DOH!
Arya and the Hound make a quick appearance as they storm in and stay with a farmer and his daughter. The Hound shows us that he will always be the Hound, not a proper and sophisticated fella.
Finally we get back to Daenerys Targaryen and she gets to the city of Meereen and wants to free the slaves. In order to get her message across she throws barrels of shackles and chains to the slaves, in order to tell them yes, I will free you guys. Only the Khaleesi can pull off a stunt quite like that one.
The masters send down a warrior and asks Dany to send one of her men to battle him. Daario tells her he will fight for her and he goes against the warrior and his horse. Yup, he takes him down with one fell swoop. How do you like me now sucka?
Thus far, this season has not let me down one bit, the story, narrative and characters never disappoint. Did you guys hear that Jack Gleeson threw a party for his friends to see their reactions to his death? So cool!!!

Nice work! Another excellent episode!! The gif of Littlefinger is hilarious!
Sneaky littlefinger! Sounds like one of the twitter convos! lol
LOL!!!! HAHAHAHA!!!
I know who did it…
Abbi I love you but you suck!! Please give me a clue a hint?? lol I have been bugging the hell out of my husband and he won’t say a word. š¦
Do you really want to know…. really, really?
Lol yes sorta although I want to be surprised, but the bad person on my shoulder really is bugging to know!
Oh Littlefinger. Such a sleaze! This recap is excellent as usual. Jack Gleeson is so adorable out of character. You’ve definitely got the right idea about Tommen! But… I won’t spoil the Joffrey mystery. š
Anna just tell me!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please!! Please!! hahahaha ok fine don’t tell me. I know Jack is so cute, you forgot what a jerk he was on the show. Bravo to him!
A literal pissing contest … haha great stuff! Oh man, Ygritte arrowing that little kid’s father in the neck was brutal. Fun recap!
Thank you! Yes she is fierce isn’t she… don’t mess with her right!
You find THE BEST pictures/gifs for this show. LOVE the winking one. I have to say, I didn’t know how I felt about substitute Daario, but he’s growing on me…Well done, lady–per usual. š
Thank you! I waste a lot of my free time looking for pics (I have issues). hahaha Glad that you enjoy them. Yeah I agree with you about Daario, the last one was so freaking hot, do you know why he got recast? But the new one well he’s sexy so I accept him as well. š
Khaleesi rocks at the end of this episode. She really knows her politics. Good stuff Melissa š
Thank you! She is always awesome and never EVER disappoints.
Is it any help if I tell you I think next ep reveals who did it? š About your Tywin suspicion – kinslaying – the killing of your own blood – is a very serious offense. Of course breaking the guest right, as Red Wedding orchestrated by Tywin did, is even worse, but ‘technically’ he wasn’t there. So would he risk such stain just to have a King he can control more easily?
Sati ! Yes that totally helps me, seriously just made my day. Ohhhh that was such a good clue… I think I just reread your comment a few times to properly digest it. Thank you!!! š š
I have a a theory about who killed him. I think it was the woman Diana Rigg plays. Mainly just so that I can tell you she was at my graduation and handed me my degree!!
LOL No way!!!! Really?? Did she wear her headpiece like she does on the show and say something really snide to you?
She was really nice but I’m disappointed there were no bitchy comments!
Well that was just BITCHY of her!
I worry the most about what is going to happen to Sansa. she’s had such a rough go of it, but at least she’s out of King’s Landing now.
Me too! I feel so bad for her, I really do not want her to die! Please!!!!!!!!!!!
And actually, I’d forgotten all about Little finger until he suddenly showed up again. But as soon as I saw it was him I just knew it wouldn’t be good. A while back I was thinking maybe he would try to marry Sansa because he couldn’t have Catelyn, but then that prediction failed…
