Synopsis
Catelyn and Ser Rodrik are on the road back north to Winterfell. It is raining, and they decide to stay at an inn for the night. It is an inn Catelyn stayed at many times in her youth, run by a fat woman named Masha Heddle. Rodrik argues against it, worried that Catelyn will be recognized, but just then they are passed by contingent of soldiers led by a lord Jason a bannerman to Catelyn's father, who doesn't recognize them and Catelyn opines that the inn will be no problem since they look like road-weary travelers.
When they go down to the common room for dinner, they are accosted by the singer Marillion. As they eat, Tyrion arrives with his two men and Yoren. Tyrion would not have noticed Cat had Marillion not jumped up to declare a performance in Tyrion’s honor. When Tyrion notices Cat, she decides to play her hand. She asks some of the men in the room if their lords are true to her father, Lord Hoster Tully. The Brackens, Freys and Whents are all represented in the room. She then tells how Tyrion was a guest in her home, and had sent an assassin to kill her son. A dozen men draw swords and help Cat take Tyrion captive.
