**Gukumatz Mod Note:** This was moved from the non-spoiler Game of Thrones thread in Cafe Society in order to let it rest and avoid Warning people. If anyone wants to fight it out, you can do it here, but keep it within the rules of ATMB. Anyone wants to go further, take it to the Pit. All posts from #2-14 were made in another context. Please keep ATMB rules with regards to language and civilty in mind. - Gukumatz [Everything past this point belongs to **quixotic78**] > [@Game of Thrones first season discussion thread \[No Spoilers!\]](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/game-of-thrones-first-season-discussion-thread-no-spoilers/587537/1): > > This thread is for - _and only for_ - content that has been shown on the TV screen.

Which episode was it where King Joffrey meets Tyrion, the stand-in for the Hand of the King? Have you guys seen second season episodes? How? Please, let’s respect the reasonable and repeated request of the OP and only discuss what has been shown on the screen. I know some of you are only speculating, but if you happen to be right in what you’ve speculated, then the whole interaction between Joff and Tyrion is spoiled for us all. And even those of you saying that such-and-such couldn’t possibly happen, that could potentially be a spoiler, too. So, once again (and _N.B._ the emphasis was in the original): > [@Game of Thrones first season discussion thread \[No Spoilers!\]](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/game-of-thrones-first-season-discussion-thread-no-spoilers/587537/1): > > This thread is for - _and only for_ - content that has been shown on the TV screen.
