When Bran miraculously survives his fall from the tower, Cersei and Jaime scramble to ensure he will not live to expose their treachery. Having agreed to become the King's Hand, Ned leaves The North with daughters Sansa and Arya, while Catelyn stays behind to tend to Bran. Jon Snow heads north to join the brotherhood of the Night's Watch. Tyrion decides to forgo the trip south with his family, instead joining Jon in the entourage heading to the Wall. Viserys bides his times in hopes of winning back the throne, while Dany focuses her attention on learning how to please her new husband, Drogo. (Home Box Office)

Intrigues, scheming and moves on an imaginary chessboard. It slightly starts to catch the mores of classic series, i.e. to put the key twist in the last shot, but surprisingly it doesn't lose its pull and you want to know more about the characters.

The pace slows down a bit compared to the pilot, but the creators did a great job of highlighting the differences between the Stark and Lannister families. We get our first real taste of intrigue and manipulation. Surprisingly, the hired assassin adds some life to the Winterfell scenes, and Cersei’s conversation with her son sheds light on her motivations. I was also reminded of how annoying I found Lady Catelyn back in the day, and my opinion of her hasn't changed a bit.
