Aldi_AA Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 So what is everyone's thoughts on the scene where Margaery raped Tommen? He's about 12 years old for christ sake. Margaery better be punished next episode for seducing a child for power. I'm sure he didn't mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frances Bean Corbray Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Required crackpot of the night: Boros Blount have been a Tyrell man all along! The show proves! The Food Taster and The (rulers of the) Breadbasket Of The Empire. God, it's so obvious in retrospect. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khal-a-bunga Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Why wouldn't she be able to get into Tommen's chambers? She was the Queen (for a short while) when Joffrey was alive, and she'll be the Queen once again when she marries Tommen. She wouldn't have to sneak in, or beat anyone up, or any other ridiculous notion. The shit people here get confused about... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are acting like she is some random stranger who is completely unknown to the KG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She wouldn't have to sneak in, or beat anyone up, or any other ridiculous notion. The shit people here get confused about... I imagine the conversation went like this: Boros: Sorry, my lady but I have strict orders not to let anyone into the King's chamber. Margaery: I'm not 'anyone', I'll be the Queen remember? Boros: Oh of course... *Steps aside* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nordeast Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Margaery is a hot whore and could seduce herself past any of the sorry excuses for Kings Guards that are left at Kings Landing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valerius Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Margaery could simply have said, "The King has asked for me." Who is to deny the Queen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raksha 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Margaery seemed to be adjusting her clothes when she walked into the room and earlier Olenna had given her a speech about using her body to get what she wants... Do I need to elaborate further? Either that or she gave Blount some wine or gold coins. I have the feeling that Margaery is pretty choosy about who she would offer her physical favors, and Blount would not be on that list for any reason less than a dire emergency.

averde Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 He's not 12, he's 16 or something in the show...who wouldn't want to be raped by Natalie Dormer?16 year old me would have let her rape me for sure. She'd have me growing strong for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColdDrake Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 So being kissed on the forehead=rape? Surely you must be joking, perhaps mocking all the people who are suddenly outraged that the series "has too much rape lately" (the show and books both notorious for the abundance of murder, torture, rape, brutality, and wide variety of sexual scenarios) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HouseHarrison Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 The guard was Boros Blount. The Yellow Whale could sneak by that doofus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kinkslayer Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Just because Jaime is a terrible kingsguard, his score is 3-0 in protecting kings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckfield Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Because the show writers are stupid and were too lazy to come up with a logical reason to how she managed to get by the guard so they passed it off like it was obvious though it clearly isn't. This episode was the lamest in the series so far, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ground_control Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 *Sigh*If Loras was already in KG (like in the books), and had been on duty, this would have been a much better scene: Tommen: "How did you get by the Kingsguard?" Margaery: "I told my brother I wouldn't hurt you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pod The Impaler Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Cercei was surprisingly right about Jaime's Security not being enough..... no wonder Joffrey was killed so easily..... Margaery probably gave Boros Blount a tub of ice cream and no spoon, so he went looking for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tall Tyrion Lannister! Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Margaery probably gave Boros Blount a tub of ice cream and no spoon, so he went looking for one. why do that when you can simply dive in face first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungholes First Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 The Food Taster and The (rulers of the) Breadbasket Of The Empire. God, it's so obvious in retrospect. :) Seriously how has he not been demoted to food taster yet? At least we saw that Meryn Trant was skilled enough to surive Syrio Forel. I'm sure he didn't mind. This is what people mean, when they refer to "rape culture." I think I know why Tommen was recast/aged up. Margaery is a character that elicits audience sympathy, and the showrunners didn't want to make her look like some child predator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
