Game of Thrones’ eighth and final season fast approaches. If you’re like me, you’ve obsessively analyzed the photos and the trailer. You’ve done your rewatch. You are anxiously awaiting the next chapter. And, if you’re like me, you often go; “When exactly did that happen? Was it before or after the other thing?” Like, was Tyrion hand of the king when he married Sansa? Or was that over already?
Or, maybe you don’t have time to rewatch nearly 70 hours of television. You have better, more important things to do! We applaud you. And, we may be able to help you refresh your memory for the war to come.
It occurred to us at GGA, that whether you’ve obsessed over every GoT detail or not… it would be nice to have a map, if you will, of individual characters’ arcs over seven seasons.
So, we present to you the fifth in our Game of Thrones character recap series. Let’s follow Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) through his arc over seven seasons of Game of Thrones, shall we?
SEASON ONE
Tyrion is living his dream when we meet him in season one. He’s all privilege. Wine, women, self-loathing, resentment and lots of money. But, by the end of the season it’s clear that he is a deep feeling, smart, brave, strong and kind person who’s meant to take on more responsibility in life than he ever thought he would.
- “Where’s the Imp?” Arya (Maisie Williams) asks when the King (Mark Addy) and Queen (Lena Headey) arrive in Winterfell.
- We finally meet Tyrion in bed with a northern whore…Ros (Esmé Augusta Bianco).
- Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) adds whores to the party to speed up the process so Tyrion will come join him. “Don’t leave me with these people.”
- Avoids feast by hanging in the courtyard where he runs into Jon Snow (Kit Harington) who’s not allowed at the feast for being a bastard. They connect. “All dwarves are bastards in their fathers’ eyes.”
- Forced to go on a hunt with the king and the other lords, Tyrion sits out the shooty part. The Hound (Rory McCann) makes fun of him.
- Bran ‘falls’. Tyrion slaps Joffrey (Jack Gleeson) three times before he agrees to go pay respects to Catelyn (Michelle Fairley) and Ned (Sean Bean). Tyrion is the only one who treats Joffrey like the s**! that he is.
- Lannister breakfast. Tyrion loves Tommen (Callum Wharry)… that’s the first Tommen in seasons 1 and 2. Dean-Charles Chapman played Tommen in seasons 4, 5 and 6. That’s AFTER he played Martyn Lannister, the Lannister cousin that was killed in season 3… and Myrcella (Aimee Richardson)… that’s the first Myrcella for seasons 1 and 2. Lot’s of Lannister recasting!
- Wants to go to the wall so he can piss off the top. That makes his favorite niece and nephew laugh.
- Takes an interest in how Bran fell. Notices that Cersei and Jaime don’t have the best reaction to his survival. Curious. Nothing gets by Tyrion.
- Takes the King’s Road to the wall. Jon notices he reads a lot. “A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone if it is to keep its edge.”
- At the wall. Notices Jon looking down on other trainees. Points out to Jon his privilege in training, and inspires him to change his ways and help the others.
- Maester Aemon (Peter Vaughan) and Commander Mormont (James Cosmo) want Tyrion to use his Lannister influence to get more men to the wall.
- Doesn’t believe in white walkers and giants and whatever else.
- Benjen Stark (Joseph Mawle) makes him think twice. He agrees to go back with Yoren (Francis Magee), who he likes, to get men from King’s Landing.
- He pisses off the top. Accomplishment!!
- Stop over in Winterfell. Gives Bran plans for special saddle he designed so Bran can still shoot arrows on horseback. “I have a tender spot in my heart for cripples and bastards and broken things.”
- Inn at the Crossroads. Meets Bronn (Jerome Flynn), who reveals himself as sellsword out for money when he offers his room at the inn.
- Runs into Catelyn Stark, who thinks the Cat’s Paw dagger used in the attempted murder of Bran was Tyrion’s. (Because the actual owner of the dagger, Littlefinger (Aiden Gillen), set him up)
- Arrested and captured at Inn at the Crossroads. Dammit.
- Eastern Road on their way to the Eyrie. He’s innocent. Warns Catelyn about her crazy sister.
- Bronn is there. Tyrion drops a little “A Lannister always pays his debts” and offers to reward anyone who would help him. Bronn hears it loud and clear.
- Attack! Hill tribes come at them hard!
- Convinces Catelyn to cut him loose. “If I die, what’s the point?” He wants to get to a horse and escape, but saves Catelyn by brutally hacking a hillman to death with the point of a shield instead.
- Arrive in the Eyrie. Lysa (Kate Dickie) is crazy alright. She’s breastfeeding her 8 year old? I can’t even get my head around how gross that is.
- Lysa accuses Tyrion of the murder of John Arryn in addition to Bran charges. He’s thrown in a sky cell.
- Mord, the sky cell guard is um… hard to talk to… but Tyrion bribes him for an audience with Lysa.
- Demands trial by combat, naming Jaime as his champion. No dice. He needs a volunteer.
- Bronn steps up and slaughters Lysa’s champion. Too easy. Tyrion is free and he has a new best friend.
- Hill tribes are back. Tyrion talks his way out of being killed by promising better weapons that will help them take back the Eyrie. He’s got lots of money and pays his debts after all. Shagga (Mark Lewis Jones) and the hill tribes agree, but they’ll feed his junk to the goats if he’s lying. Deal.
- Arrives at Lannister camp where Tywin (Charles Dance) and Jaime are fighting Rob’s army at the Greenfork. Tywin is also cutting the hell out of a stag. Metaphor.
- Tywin is mildly happy to see Tyrion and unhappy to see his new hill tribe friends. Agrees to pay the weapon debt if they fight for him.
- Shagga wants Tyrion on the field with them. Tywin agrees… Tyrion, not so much. He thinks his father wants him to die in battle. But, he has to go.
- Bronn brings a whore in for Tyrion for his last night on Earth. Shae. (Sibel Kekilli) They play drinking games and he tells the story of his first love, how she was actually a whore paid by Jaime to make fun of Tyrion. Outlines the cruelty of Tywin and Jaime. He’s damaged.
- Gets knocked out by his own men before the battle even gets going. He’s another kind of damaged.
- Finds out Rob tricked them and captured Jaime with the bulk of his forces in a different place. Tywin is pissed.
- Tywin will retreat to Harrenhal. Sends Tyrion to King’s Landing to be interim hand of the king.
- Tywin forbids Tyrion to take Shae to King’s Landing. Tyrion does it anyway.

- Stops Joffrey’s torture stripping of Sansa at court for Rob’s victory on the battlefield. Threatens that Joffrey might end up like the Mad King. Yes! Get him!

- Renly (Gethin Anthony) is dead. Tyrion knows Stannis (Stephen Dillane) is coming and wants to talk to Cersei about defense. She won’t. She’s keeping secrets.

- Asks Pod, who he can trust, to get Varys or Bronn, who he can trust.
- Varys reports that Tyrion was great in the battle but it doesn’t matter because Joffrey is a d*@k. Bronn is no longer leading the City Watch.
- Varys brings Shae for a visit. She takes bandages off his face. He’s horrified, but they gave Dinklage a very aesthetically pleasing cut. Books took his nose off.

Oh, you guys. Season four is where Tyrion really comes into his own. It doesn’t start out great, but he burns it all down by the end, breaks with the tyranny of his family and leaves. So good.

- Jaime tells him of the deal he struck with their dad that Jaime would leave the King’s Guard, become lord of Casterly Rock in return for Tyrion being spared and sent to the wall. He agrees to the plan. He will ask for mercy.
- But Wait!Then Shae testifies against him. That is cold. He’s so hurt that he abandons the plan, lashes out hard, says he wishes he had killed Joffrey (calls him a vicious bastard, GASP) and that his dad has been putting him on trial his whole life. It’s great. He really goes for it.
- Demands trial by combat. The mercy plan is out the window.

- Bronn has got a good thing going as a new lord, thanks to Cersei, and doesn’t particularly want to die fighting the Mountain.

- Jaime comes in to bond in Tyrion’s cell over making fun of a relative before the fight.
