The White Walkers make their first "artwork" and create a symbol in the snow using the dismembered body parts of the slaughtered wildlings.Ser Jorah Mormont gets on Dany's good side by giving her books about the Seven Kingdoms, while Illyrio Mopatis gives her three "stone" dragon eggs. He marries her off to Khal Drogo in order to access his army, and Drogo rapes Dany on their wedding night (ugh, how did I go on to ship them the first time I watched this?!). Her brother Viserys is domineering, slightly mad, a little bit incesty, and obsessed with reclaiming the Iron Throne. Daenerys Targaryen is young, naive, and timid (such a contrast to who she is now!).Oh, and he really, really hates Targaryens and was in love with Lyanna Stark. Robert also wants Sansa and Joffrey to marry. King Robert Baratheon names Ned, his best friend, Hand of the King, and Ned is reluctant AF about it but accepts anyway after learning the Lannisters might have killed Jon Arryn.Meanwhile, Tyrion Lannister is a smart-arse who loves drinking and sex. HE BOINKED HIS SISTER AND PUSHED A CHILD OUT THE WINDOW!!! What has this show done to me?!). We discover that Jaime and Cersei Lannister are twins who bang and that they probably had something to do with the murder of Jon Arryn – and definitely had something to do with Bran's fall (seriously, rewatching it is startling considering Jaime became one of my fave characters.We learn Theon is their ward (although tbh it took me a few episodes to really gather that the first time around!). We get to know their values - "winter is coming" and "the man who passes the sentence should swing the sword".
The Starks are happy and together (sob!), except for the minor fact that Catelyn hates Jon and there's tension between Arya and Sansa.We get our first glimpse of the White Walkers (it's wild that they telegraphed them RIGHT FROM THE START but it kind of got lost among everything else happening).Literally so much is set up here (I mean, of course - it's the first ep!).
