[[Arya Stark|Arya]] is trying needlepoint hopelessly, knowing she will never be as good at it as [[Sansa Stark|Sansa]].  Sansa and the other girls are whispering to each other, as Septa [[Mordane]] coos over Princess [[Myrcella Baratheon|Myrcella]]'s needlework.  Arya asks what they are talking about, and Sansa says Prince [[Joffrey Baratheon|Joffrey]].  Arya says [[Jon Snow|Jon]] thinks Joffrey looks like a woman, and when Sansa says he's only a bastard, Arya defends him, drawing the [[Septa]]'s attention to her.

In the yeard bellow, [[Bran Stark|Bran]] and Prince [[Tommen Baratheon|Tommen]] are fighting each other with heavily padded wooden swords under the watchful eye of Ser Rodrik Cassel, the master-at-arms, and a group of spectators, including [[Robb Stark|Robb]] and [[Theon Greyjoy|Theon]]. Arya says she could fight as well as Bran, but Jon says she doesn't have enough muscle for a longsword.  
 
 
Septa Mordane inspects Arya's stitches, and pronounces herself dissastisfied with them.  Arya runs out of the room in shame. Not wanting to be found, Arya goes to watch [[Robb Stark|Robb]] fight Joffrey in practice. She finds Jon watching from the vantage point she had chosen, and he greets her amiably. She looks down to see [[Bran Stark|Bran]] and [[Tommen]] fighting instead. Arya says she could fight as well as Bran, but Jon says she doesn't have enough muscle for a longsword.
 
 
 
They look down to see that Bran has knocked Tommen over. Ser [[Rodrik Cassel]] sends them to remove their padding, and calls Robb and Joffrey over for a bout. Joffrey acts as if it is beneath his dignity to fight [[House Stark|Starks]] with play swords. He suggests real swords, and Robb accepts, but Ser Rodrik refuses to let them. [[Sandor Clegane]] steps forward and says they should let them, that he killed a man with an edged blade when he was only twelve.
 
  
Joffrey makes a few more condescending remarks, enraging Robb, but [[Theon Greyjoy|Theon]] holds him back from attacking the Prince. Then Joff and Tommen leave. Jon says that Arya should go to her room, or the punishment will be worse the longer she leaves it. Arya returns to her room to find not only Septa Mordane, but also her mother.
