You mean Reek?

Reek certainly deserves sympathy. Theon doesn't.

The Spider is Lord Varys correct?

the spider is Varrys yes.

Even after he spills the wine, he lets it out of his hand. Or the cup itself could have been the weapon, having some sort of solution/substance which gradually would have melted into his wine.

The possibilities are endless

Anyone can do that just send a servant to change the win or make sure that the win Joeffry was drinking is poisoned.

I am so inclined to check the GOT book thread here in TL but i am having second thoughts since i think i will regret my decision for knowing things ahead of time

I still think the poison was in the pie. The dead birds seem to foreshadow this and the only person seen eating the pie is Joeffrey. Tywin is shown playing with some pie on his fork but he never actually eats it on screen.

Its not like it cut itself in two, no :p the bird certainly is a foreshadowing though, but I doubt the poison was in the pie. Just no way of knowing if anyone else would start eating it before the posion started taking effect

I caught me actually liking Ramsay more than Theon. At least he has ambition. Theon is just despicable ...

Ramsey may be a bit crazy, but he only did what is in the tradition of the family.
And since he's a bastard, he may be eager to impress his father.

Ramsay: "We've been flaying our enemies for a thousand years; the flayed man is on our banners!"
Bolton: "My banners, not yours. You're not a Bolton, you're a Snow."

Also, a man who orders to murder children so as not to appear weak is 10x more despicable than the guy who tortures that very man.

So his last heroic deed was to oneshot pigeons, impressive.

If you watch the scene, you can clearly see at least one of the pigeons is beheaded. The head even falls down to the ground while margaery says "my hero" to joffrey.

Is it just me who has Bran as their most hated. I don't know what it is about him, but I can't stand his story line and every scene he's in. Like, Joffrey, Ramsey, Theon etc are all bad people but at least they're interesting bad people. Melisandre is probably my second most hated.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I'd sooner hang out with Bran than most of the characters in GoT. But non-Bran characters dying just means I probably have to sit through more three eyed raven Hodor nonsense.

I actually like Bran, but I completely agree that his storyline was relatively boring since he fled Winterfell. Given how many different stories in different places are currently going on, he might just be on screen about every 2nd episode, and so this season could just end (for him) with a "we finally arrived at where we want to be, now what?"-cliffhanger, with even less interaction with the rest of people than he had last season. If that's the case, I wouldnt mind if they just straight up skipped most of his scenes until that moment.

Killing one unread book and a few pidgeons trapped in a pie.

Best use of priceless valyrian steel, ever.

the pigeon theory... it may have been some sort of foreshadowing but i doubt it had anything to do with the poisoning.. Look at how joffrey died, that was a quick acting very strong poison.

Foreshadowing what? Someone is going to die? I don't think you need to foreshadow that sort of thing at this point in the series

Joeffry looked like he had a severe case of allergy when he died.

This is offtopic ofc.

Here is a list of medieval poisons:
http://www.sarahwoodbury.com/medieval-poisons/

As far as I know, none of them can bring death within one minute.
Faster acting poisons like hydrogen cyanide have only been invented later in the 18th century.

Edit: Aconitum might be a candidate, not sure how fast it actually is.

It doesn't have to be a real poison though. There are a lot of supernatural things going on in westeros.
Edit: By real i mean "exists in our world"
