“Game of Thrones” premiered its third episode of Season 4 last night on HBO and while “Breaker of Chains” did not feature any deaths, it did feature some intense exchanges. Westeros and particularly King’s Landing is sill reacting to the death of King Joffrey Baratheon, but with the Iron Throne already growing cold there is little time for mourning, as the scheming and constant “Game of Thrones” among the ruling houses truly never ceases. The finality of Joffery’s death is so conclusive and lacking any emotion, that his grandfather was already busy grooming his younger brother to take his crown, while his body was still in Baelor’s sept, the same place where he had exchanged his vows merely hours before. But Tywin isn’t the only one making plans, the newly accused Tyrion and his squire, Podrick had an overwrought exchange, Davos is scheming to have Stannis back in the capital, and even the Tyrells are not done playing games with the Lannisters. So with all this action unfolding and the literary influence of “Game of Thrones” fans revealed in the eerie monolog and cynical dialogues traded between characters in episode 3, “Breaker of Chains.” Check out the top 10 best lines from “Game of Thrones” Season 4 episode 3 below
