Game of Fantasies Episode 8: The Man Who Pays Them


[Rockson Stark]
What I'm about to tell you..
Mustn't leave this room. Not yet anyway.
Robert Baratheon has no trueborn sons.
Evan and Tommen, are Tai Luunister's bastards.
Evan has no claim to the throne.


[Ken Baelish]
So that means...

[Rockson Stark]
It means Vic Ambrose should be King.
Robert Baratheon's brother.

[Ken Baelish]
So it would seem... unless...

[Rockson Stark]
There is no unless.
He is the rightful heir.


[Ken Baelish]
He cannot take the throne without your help.
You would be wise to deny it to him and make sure Evan succeeds.


[Rockson Stark]
Do you have a shred of honor?

[Ken Baelish]
You are Hand of the King and Protector of the Realm.
You have the Commissioner Rights to the league.
All the power is yours.
You need only... reach out and take it.
Make peace with the Luunisters.


[Rockson Stark]
Make peace with the Luunisters?
The people that tried to murder my boy.

[Ken Baelish]
We only make peace with our enemies.
That's why it's called making peace.

[Rockson Stark]
No. I won't do it.


[Ken Baelish]
So war, then?

[Rockson Stark]
There's no other choice.
Vic Ambrose is the rightful heir.

[Ken Baelish]
So tell me then.
Why did you call me here?
Clearly, not for my wisdom and Fantasy expertise.

[Rockson Stark]
You promised Catelyn you would help me.
I need your Fantasy Team.
The Queen's team and her royal guard would defeat mine.
But if we combine teams..


[Ken Baelish]
Look at you.
You know what has to be done.
But it's not honorable, so the words stick in your throat.
When the Queen proclaims one King
and the Hand proclaims another...
Who's peace do the Fantasy Managers of West Coasteros protect?
Who do they follow?
The man who pays them.














































Next Week... He arrives.
