Just a problem with the audio, the song plays after the show completes during the credits but it was messed up a bit. I don't think it was a troll so much as a mistake | ||

Tyrion takes a second to think things through and all the while I was thinking "He can't even lift a chair!" So of course he starts dragging it -- I'm sure we'll all agree it was funny -- but then instead of placing it next to his sister he puts it at the exact opposite end of the table from Tywin. Essentially he's saying two things to his father: "I won't get in line with the ass-kissers on either side of the table," and "I'm not afraid to admit that you and I are adversaries." That's just my interpretation, you can take it however you want. That's the thing i love about game of thrones the TV series (i never read the books). Each scene is so carefully portrayed from a person point of view. Some scenes are pure action, whereas each scene with Tyrion is so carefully planned as to make each phrase and movement mean something, because that's how he sees the world. | ||

That's just my interpretation, you can take it however you want. its also worth noting in etiquette (showing how english i am right here) that sitting next to the head of the table is not the second highest 'ranking' position. she is sitting as tywins right hand (wo)man but tyrion is taking the second highest ranking position at the table. | ||

Everyone on the council enters the room. Tywin immediately takes his seat at the head of the table. He's so powerful and important that this is a completely obvious move on his part. Next Varys moves to sit down like "hey might as well" but Baelish makes a hasty, aggressive, and obviously visible move for the next most prestigious chair at the table, the one next to Tywin. Immediately after, Varys followed by Pycelle. Once those three (the ones whose main pride is being on the council) have taken their seats. Cersei makes the extremely bold move of moving one of the chairs next to Tywin. It seems like such a simple move, but Baelish and the others simply looked at the table and never even considered moving the chairs. Cersei goes outside of what may be considered "proper," and gets her way. After all this has passed, Tyrion, having seen this little episode plays out, slowly walks up and loudly drags his chair to the opposite head of the table. He's brazen and inappropriate about it. He makes a total joke out of the situation, and while all of the events before this were somewhat subtle, everyone made aware exactly what's going on (it's as if they were doing this little wordless power struggle, and Tyrion just goes "Well if you guys are going to play this game, I'm just going to sit right here where I belong! Haha!") making everyone else seem just a bit foolish. The beauty in this scene is that, without words, so much is told about each character. | ||

I would guess his issue was that it was all so obvious, thus a little childish. Thats at least what I felt. | ||

Giving up two dragons so easily would make the trader suspect, haggling makes it seem like more of a legitimate deal. You can rebuild a slave army, good luck replacing a dragon. My guess is she'll just use the unsullied to take Astapor and free the slaves. | ||

Also first episode of the entire series Bran is having trouble learning how to shoot arrows. Heck there is probably some sort of magic in the world if anything that could make a man never miss an arrow lol. | ||

I also do wonder what she has in mind for the dragons, I'm certain it doesn't involve her leaving it there and the trader is not stupid enough to let it fly away. | ||

Cersei's moving the chair was a pretty obvious, and it was pretty clear what Tyrion was going to do after her move. | ||
