The Small Council discusses an appropriate response to Stannis’ widely publicized accusation of Cersei’s children being Jamie’s. Later Tyrion employs all the blacksmiths in King’s Landing to make him a monstrous chain. Later still, Tyrion publicly enters a brothel before sneaking out through a secret door to visit Shae in private. Mackelly and Simon debate the levels of cunning on display.
Chapter Review:
Stannis Baratheon has been sending word of Cersei and Jamie Lannister's incest to every house, great and small, in the realm. The Small Council discusses a response. Cersei wants to quash it completely, in particular so that neither her father nor her children ever hear of it. Wiser heads point out that trying to silence such a rumor tends to indicate a guilty conscience. Littlefinger comes up with the winning idea. They will circulate their own salacious accusation against Stannis: that his daughter Shireen is in fact the child of Patchface the fool.
Tyrion Lannister and Bronn meet with the armorers and smiths of King’s Landing and commission an almighty chain. Some are worried about their prior commission (from Cersei) to equip the Gold Cloaks, but Tyrion assures them that his project takes priority and he’ll protect them from the Queen.
Tyrion visit’s Chataya’s brothel. He makes no attempt to hide. But once inside he exits through a secret tunnel, built by a former Hand of the King, and meets Lord Varys in a stable. There he's disguised as a child on horseback and rides across King’s Landing to visit Shae.
