Synopsis

Pycelle informs Ned that Lord Tywin is wroth with him for sending men to bring Ser Gregor to justice. Ned knows Pycelle is the Queen’s creature, and doesn’t care. Littlefinger pays a visit, and tells Ned that the King continues to hunt, now after a fierce boar. Most of the hunting party returned, including Joffrey and the Hound. Littlefinger leaves, and Ned calls in Fat Tom, now in command of the Hand’s guard with Jory dead and Alyn gone, and asks him to take him to the godswood. There, Ned tells Tom to find the Queen and invite her to join him. When Cersei arrives, Ned reveals that he knows what Jon Arryn died for. We learn that all three children are Ser Jaime’s. Cersei admits that Bran had been pushed after he had seen them making love. She tells Ned why she hates Robert, because he had called her ‘Lyanna’ the first night they made love after being married.

Cersei then offers Ned the chance to remain Hand for Joffrey if he will remain silent, and even comes on to him, touching his leg. When Ned asks her if she made the same offer to Jon Arryn, she slaps him. Ned makes it clear that he intends to tell the King, and warns her to leave King's Landing, maybe take ship to the Free Cities, along with her children, brothers and father to escape Robert’s wrath. Cersei laughs at him, and tells him he was a fool not to take the throne for himself fourteen years ago when he forced Jaime off the seat. Ned tells her he has made many mistakes in his life, but that was not one of them. Cersei replies that it was a mistake, because, "When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground."
