Queen Cersei (Lena Headey) seems even more emboldened as Lord Ned Stark (Sean Bean) and Petyr

Queen Cersei (Lena Headey) seems even more emboldened as Lord Ned Stark (Sean Bean) and Petyr "Littlefinger" (Aidan Gillen) both know her dirty little incestuous secret, as the tedious Joffrey (Jack Gleeson) sits atop the Iron Throne and the King\'s Landing court were paid handsomely by the Lannisters to stay loyal to her cause.

Those insufferable Lannisters are large and in charge now that fat King Robert Baratheon bit the dust thanks to a lucky boar.

Queen Cersei (Lena Headey) seems even more emboldened as Lord Ned Stark (Sean Bean) and Petyr "Littlefinger" (Aidan Gillen) both know her dirty little incestuous secret, as the tedious Joffrey (Jack Gleeson) sits atop the Iron Throne and the King's Landing court were paid handsomely by the Lannisters to stay loyal to her cause. 

Ned is imprisoned, and his wife Catelyn (Michelle Fairley) has her hands full with Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) back at Winterfell. And the most capable Stark progeny (Jon Snow played by Kit Harrington) is now a sworn servant to the Night Watch of the Wall.  If he deserts the watch, it's death for him. 

Plus the White Walkers have woken up! (Try and say that three times fast)

And scrappy little Arya (Maisie Williams) is running around the castle and pretty Sansa (Sophie Turner) may be violated by the Hound (Rory McCann) or his gross brother the Mountain this next episode!

Momoa as Khal, you are welcome.

Meanwhile Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa) was happy riding his horses and putting on his guyliner - staying put where he was - until one of Robert's assassins botched an attempt on his pregnant Khaleesi.

So not only is winter coming, so are the Dothraki!

Enter the new episode “The Pointy End,” as we enter the final stretch of HBO's Fantasy sexbomb of a series that features dwarf fellatio, lesbianism, gay knights shaving each other, group sex and brother sister incest scenes. Good times and no unicorns or ladies in the lake, we're so in.

This Sunday June 5 (9:00-10:05 p.m. ET/PT)

The Lannisters press their advantage over the Starks; Robb (Richard Madden) rallies his father’s northern allies and heads south to war.

Written by George R.R. Martin; directed by Daniel Minahan.
