Arya and Sansa FTW! Sansa is using every weapon she has - and she's fighting Cersei's sword with a pin, but she's still doing it. She held Joffrey's gaze like a champ. I'm unspoiled and the only way I can see Ned compromising is if someone is about to kill one of his kids RIGHT NOW (not just threatening to do so in the future) but that's about it. Good luck, Sansa!

Oh Tyrion! The look on his face when he realised that his father had the chance to send him into battle! It's perfect for Tywin - Tyrion might handily die a noble death, AND he gets some battle-hardened warriors, AND he doesn't have to pay them yet!
