By now hopefully you've seen last week's episode of Game of Thrones and read our review, because it looks like the action and speed start picking up next week.  Fans of the book series know what to expect next after Catelyn captured Tyrion, but for you first time fans of the television show, you're in for a treat.

We'll finally get our first battle as Catelyn and her mercenaries take Tyrion hostage, more fighting in the tournament, and even more political intrigue as Robert plots to assassinate Daenerys' unborn child.  Watch an official promo and clip from next week's episode, "The Wolf and the Lion", below:
