Game Of Thrones: 7 Most Agonizing Twists (And Whether They Were Worse Than The Books)

4. Bran€™s Fall

bran's fall The Show This was the first moment when €œGame of Thrones€ got crazy. Kids die in this show! Twins have graphic sex! You will remember our pre-credits scenes in your nightmares! It was a moment that broke serious TV rules, providing a plot twist that served as the foundation of all other crises: imagine where the plot would have been if the Lannister children weren't illegitimate spawns of incest. The Book Everything€™s a lot more vague because it€™s told from a seven-year-old's perspective. He just calls the twins €œthe man€ and €œthe woman.€ He doesn€™t know what sex is. We figure out who's who from their conversation. And as in the show, there's a moment that looks like grace, where it seems that Jaimie isn't going to do it. Then he turns and shoves. The Verdict: The Book The scene in the show is brutal, sure, but in the book it€™s being told from Bran€™s perspective. We have to deal with his fear, his confusion, all while hoping there€™s a way for him to make it out of this.
