re: Game of Thrones S4:E2:"The Lion and the Rose", HODORS ONLY (no book readers)

Honestly I think it might have been Sansa. She was zoned out when they were making a mockery of Ned and it does appear that she may have slipped something in that cup. Don't know how she could have planned it though.

Then again I think the cake might have done it. As soon as he takes a bite he makes a strange face before calling for Tyrion to refill his cup.

Then again...would they have had to rely on Joffrey dropping the cup to where Sansa could get to it?

This is why Tyrion/Sansa doesn't make sense IMO

I thought it was interesting how Margary kept moving the feast along anytime it went off track. When Joffrey threw the money at the minstrels she was like "Let's make the announcement," then when he was telling Tyrion to kneel she says "It's the pie!"

Almost like she was following a script for how everything was supposed to go.

or simply trying to head Joffrey off when he was starting to act like a spoiled bitch. Trying to keep his douche arse in check

Unless Sansa was going to wait for an opportune moment (and put if off if it didn't arise) and that one luckily presented itself. I don't think that she did, though.

Lending some credence to Oberyn, besides the obvious revenge, is that he wouldn't care if someone else has some pie before Joffrey eats it since he hates all of the Lannisters.

That last one...terrible, yet

Earlier I thought it was the pie, but that was a really big pie. It would have to be completely loaded with poison to kill him in one bite. I'm thinking someone slipped something in the goblet now.

I don't care what happens for the rest of the series...that little douche going out like that makes everything else gravy.

Just watched again. Did it look like Sansa dropped something in the goblet before handing it to Tyrion?

Nah. The fool definitely knew something was up because he doubled back in the confusion as Joffrey was leaking from every orifice to tell Sansa she had to leave right away to live. If she was in on it, he wouldn't have had to go and rescue her. Whoever killed Joffrey had to have some allegiance to the Starks or at least have compassion for Sansa to go and get her away from King's Landing and ensure she didn't get whacked in the shitstorm that's sure to ensue.

Kinda how I feel. I don't really have a strong hatred for anyone else. Cersei doesn't seem powerful enough to hate. I kinda like Tywinn and don't mind the other Lannisters. I'm guessing something will happen soon that will make me hate someone though.
