why would Lady Olenna have the poison in the necklace the fool gave Sansa? there's no need for the overcomplicated plan. why can't she just have it on her, it's not like anyone is gonna frisk her. plus she is sitting at a different table. from what i see: left table Tyrells (family of the bride), middle table Joffrey and Margaery (the married couple) and the table on the right the Lannisters.

Just thinking about it:

a) she wants the poison in her possession for as short a time as possible (takes from Sansa right before using) to limit the odds of someone seeing her with it.
b) whenever the poison isn't in her hand it can't be traced back to her house (in Sansa's possession).
c) Sansa and the fool are natural decoys (both hate the king).
d) the poison could have been sourced from a foreign country, or at least a place foreign to Highgarden (e.g. not derived from a local plant). if so, having a 3rd party contact (fool and Sansa) to receive the poison would have made it harder to trace back to the Tyrells.
e) Sansa (Tyrion's wife) is now missing making Tyrion look more guilty (fall guy).
f) if Sansa is caught they'll find her necklace missing a stone (fall guy is even more guilty).

If the main goal is not getting caught (and I think it was) than it is a pretty good plan!

is this 'bird poisoning' from the dead birds a legit theory or is it some coy book spoiler shit people drop around? I hope that's not the case because that would be really fucking lame. If it is from the books perhaps it works because of more story telling around the birds/scene in question but the way it was presented in the show, it would be pretty silly. I hope it's just everyone being nuts.

seems Olenna played a significant part in killing Joffrey

if Cersei still gets married to Loras, does Loras become King?

I definitely do not believe poison cake killed Joffrey

Also, will the acting hand (Tywin) be King now? The younger lannister boy is too young to be King (I think) so will Tywin become the acting King until the young buy is of age?

Officially no, since the previous king, Robert, has direct heir to the throne - Tomen and Myrcella, although they are not really his children.

I can't think of any type of bacteria or infection you could get from eating a dead bird, or in this case cake that has come in contact with dead bird, that would kill you in 45 seconds. That's straight up poison.

I can't imagine it being bird poisoning... insta-kill from some bird blood? If bird blood was that deadly you wouldn't put them in pie...

what if Sansa had just not worn that particular necklace at the party?

So if Tommen dies now his successor would be Myrcella - or Stannis? (after them, Stannis' daughter and then anarchy?) Either way the Lannisters would be in big trouble. They better watch him day and night and taste have all his food tasted now.

are you refering to what I wrote earlier? I was just saying it would be gross to eat cake that had live or dead birds in it not that the birds were poisoned or something.

also I have not read the books

What if the boar didn't kill Robert afterall? We will never know, but you can guess smart people playing Game of Thrones don't give up after one failure.

Holy balls, marrying is a pretty dangerous affair.
I never expected an event of this magnitude so early in the season. If this was only episode 2, i wonder what the season's climax in episode 9 will be.

Actually, it could be argued whether Myrcella or Tommen have the bigger rights to the throne. Tommen is the son but Myrcella is the older child, so it really depends. After them, it really gets chaotic and basically the party with the biggest stick will take the throne. If the children are not a factor anymore, both Stannis and the Queen-Regent Cersey can make claims to the throne.

True, maybe Sansa's necklace is just there to throw off suspicion.

i hope they dont do some oceans eleven type of thing where they "flashback" what happened, instead i'd love to see a pawn being told what happened when pawned did what it did without knowing. i hate that flashback stuff, it only hides what happened to the viewers, instead of showing the viewers whats happening without the viewers knowing.

Neither of them have rights, surely the throne is now the queen regents, (margeries) as she married joffery and became queen, the throne will then pass to her first born. Dont forget the wedding actually took place, that has changed who is in line for what, those lannister kids shouldnt really even be in the pecking.
