I just started Game of Thrones, I'm on episode 9 of season 1. My question is how did the hand of the King figure out that his boy saw the affair going on?

ETA: sorry didn't read the question right.

He figured it out once he realized that Joffrey wasn't Robert's. He knew that Bran never falls when he climbs, plus an assassin tried to kill him. That coupled with a little lie from Littlefinger led him to the fact that the Lannisters were up to something. When he confronted Cersei about Joffrey and his siblings, and knew that Jamie didn't go on the hunt at Winterfell he just guessed that Bran saw something he wasn't suppose to. Cersei just flat out confessed and ding ding we have a winner.

He probably figured that's how bran wound up like he did(remember jaime threw him off?)

A little far fetched he would just "fall" off of something that high.

He put two and two together

He knew Jaime stayed home from the King's hunt that day. Also, had just figured out that Jaime and Cersei bang each other because of reading about Baratheon genetics. Bran was a better climber than to just fall.

Heck, I don't even remember who the Hand of the King was in episode 9.

Sorry I didn't know names. Too many names for me to remember right now. Thanks for the answer though. I thought it had something to do with the book.

I know they did the whole research showing that every-time a Barethoeon had a child with someone with fair hair, the children had Baretheon dark hair. It was a dominant trait apparently. I think Jon Arryn was looking into that back when he was hand. I don't really remember how Ned made the leap to actually tie in the Jamie/Cersi's kids thing.

I think I'll just blame it on Kat. I blame everything on Kat.

One Vary's little birds told him or was it one of Littlefingers whores.

Word to the wise - if you're only on episode 9 of season 1 and haven't read the books, I'd jump out of this thread. You labeled it spoilers and sooner or later someone will post something or other that you wish you didn't know at this point.

In the books they stress how good of a climber Bran was.

Because Arya said something about Joffery didn't look anything like Robert or It might have been Sansha.

Very good advice.

Personally I thought it was great when Cersei surrendered to Robb Stark and was promptly raped by him.
