We love TV show recaps, especially when they’re for our favorite series! We are readers after all—watching TV is apparently not enough for us. :) We’re so excited and proud to welcome our own Morgan Rhodes, author of Falling Kingdoms and Rebel Spring, as our Game of Thrones guest recapper!
Game of Thrones 4.3 – Breaker of Chains
Recap by Morgan Rhodes
1) We start right where we left off and Cersei is looking for people to blame for her son’s death. Really, it could be anyone.
2) Cersei is literally the only person actually mourning Joffrey.
3) Jaime plays the part of “good father” to Tommen before his character completely unravels. Seriously. Character development out the window in less than a minute. Apparently this is much different from what happened in the books and a lot of fans are furious. What were the writers thinking?
4) Tyrion is in the dungeon, accused of Joffrey’s murder, but selflessly doesn’t want to bring anyone down with him.
5) Margaery laments about her bad luck with husbands.
6) Lady Olenna speaks the truth.
7) Sansa escapes into the dubious safety of Baelish’s ship. I’m sure his intentions are totally pure, right? *sarcasm*
8) Daario gets deliciously cocky when he volunteers to kick some butt for Dany.
9) Dany does some recruiting.
Some of the episode’s best quotes:
“If they found you, how do you think they’d punish the girl who killed the king?” —Baelish
“Your brother was not a wise king. Your brother was not a good king. Perhaps if he was he’d still be alive.” —Tywin
“How many Starks they got to behead before you figure it out?” —The Hound
“When it comes to war, I fight for Dome. When it comes to love, I don’t choose sides.” —Oberyn
“I would like to think if I were arranging a royal assassination I’d plan it in such a way that I wouldn’t be standing there gawking like a fool when the king died.” —Tyrion
