'Game of Thrones' 'The Laws of Gods and Men' and Tyrion's Trial Recap

Tyrion's trial has finally come! Unfortunately, it's not looking great for the "Game of Thrones" fan favorite. Here's what happened this week, by location:

Braavos

Stannis and Ser Davos go to Braavos to get a bank loan from Mycroft from "Sherlock." No, really, they're asking for a bank loan. And Mark Gatiss is playing one of the bankers.

The bank in question is the Iron Bank, which is one of the most powerful banks in Westeros. Unfortunately, they don't see much in Stannis' favor in terms of assets, but some impassioned pleading from Ser Davos might turn them around.

Davos also pays a visit to his old pirate buddy Salladhor Saan. Boobs are present.

The Dreadfort

Yara commands a small group of soldiers with the intent of liberating Theon, after receiving the letter from the Boltons. However, upon arriving, they find that Theon refuses to go with them, and has been completely transformed into the subservient Reek. In fact, Ramsay Snow looks to even be thinking about using Theon as a spy of sorts against his own family.

Meereen

Danaerys is holding court in her newly acquired city, and everything is going well enough at first. Her dragons torched a farmer's goats, and Dany agreed to pay the farmer threefold for his loss.

But then the son of one of the Meereen elite that Dany had crucified shows up and explains that his father spoke out against the crucifixion of the slaves and shouldn't have been put up there. Dany finally agrees to let him take his father off the cross and bury him. Looks like someone's learned an important lesson about justice.

King's Landing

Poor Tyrion. He always seems to find himself on trial, and it's never a fair one. A who's who of Tyrion's past shows up to testify against him, taking every threatening thing he's ever said and turning them against him. The real blow, though, is when Shae shows up and claims that Tyrion and Sansa conspired to kill Joffrey.

At that point, despite Jaime's claim that Tyrion could simply be banished to the Night's Watch if he plead guilty, Tyrion loses it. He confesses that he only wishes he could have killed Joffrey, then turns to Tywin and delivers a nice little piece of symmetry: He asks for trial by combat.
