Haha, I figured that would piss someone off. I WAS RIGHT.
and who gets the second Valyrian sword? I'd like it to be Tyrion . I guess it is Joffrey?
I hope someone else gets a hold of it and lets him have it.
Who's behind it? Oberyn? Or is that a red herring? Tywin from above? Diana Rigg? A Stark loyalist?
An advantage of not having read the books ... getting to say HOLY SHIT because I had no idea that was coming.
Other realisation I just had. Tommen is now the king.
Yeah, that was a gigantic HOLY SHIT moment! And we're only at episode 2. What can they do in episode 9 to top this?
Though part of me is happy that little shithead is gone, I'm also a bit bummed. Joffrey was maybe the only truly evil person in that series, the one you love to hate. And I kinda liked that. His behaviour in this episode was testament to that. So who do we truly hate now?
(I don't think that Cersei is evil enough. Power hungry and ruthless, yes, but not evil. Neither is Melissandre as fanatic she is in her belief in the Lord Of Light)
And yes, whodunnit? I don't think it's Tyrion. As humiliated he was by Joffrey, he didn't have the opportunity to acquire the poison. Nor would he expect (and anticipate) to be humiliated like that. My guess is on Lady Tyrell (the Queen Of Roses).

I think the producers mentioned that this season wouldn't build towards episode 9 like the past seasons. The action is more evenly spread. There's also more of it than ever.Yeah, that was a gigantic HOLY SHIT moment! And we're only at episode 2. What can they do in episode 9 to top this?
BTW, some advice. Do not marry Margaery Tyrell. You will die before you can consume your marriage. She's like some kind of black widow.
With a mom like that..... Yeah
If we're talking about characters to hate, we should mention the dude who cut off Theon's dick.
Someone just reminded me of it, it could also be Sansa who poisoned Joffrey. She had the cup for some moments when Joffrey kicked it away from Tyrion and handed it to Tyrion under the table.
Oh, so many valid options, so many who wanted to have Joffrey dead.
