Sansa is summoned to the king’s presence. He’s not pleased that her brother keeps winning battles and he’s taking it out on her. Tyrion rescues her from serious peril and treats her with kindness. She’s not ready to trust him, having thrown in her lot with Ser Dontos. Mackelly and Simon would like to help her see sense.
Chapter Review:
Sansa Stark is summoned to King Joffrey Baratheon's presence. She doesn’t expect a warm welcome. Sure enough he’s hopping mad. Her brother Robb has only gone and utterly defeated the new army that his great uncle Ser Stafford Lannister was pulling together in the Westerlands. Obviously he used sorcery and cannibalism to achieve this. Joffrey wants to kill her, but even he recognizes the danger to his “uncle” Jamie if he did.
The king orders the hound to beat Sansa, but ser Dontos, the fool, tries to intervene by mushing a morningstar melon on her head. It’s a lot less painful than what she’s braced for, a lot messier, and funnier. But Joffrey is not laughing. He orders Sers Boros Blount and Meryn Trant to do what he’s ordered. They beat her and rip her dress to shame her.
It’s getting pretty bad when Tyrion arrives and saves her. He tries to educate his nephew, threatens Trant, and escorts Sansa to his rooms. There, she's patched up and catches a nap. On waking, she concludes that there is no such thing as a true knight. Tyrion assures her that he cares for her, but she continues to tow the line: I love Joffrey. Rather than stay in his rooms, she is escorted back to her own chambers, so that she can once again meet with Ser Dontos.
