At Harrenhal, Jaqen H’ghar, one of three caged prisoners Arya previously saved, pledges to kill any three people she chooses to repay his debt to her. Her first choice is the Tickler, the man who mortally tortures the captives. Renly is killed by Melisandre’s shadowy assassin. Lady Brienne is accused of the murder and Catelyn forces her to flee the camp. Excluding the Tyrells, Renly’s forces join Stannis.
Brienne swears life-long fealty to Catelyn and will protect her daughters. Theon sails from Pyke, and against Yara’s orders, intends to prove he is a true Ironborn by capturing Winterfell during Robb’s absence. Lancel tells Tyrion about wildfire, a mass-produced explosive substance hidden in the city’s dungeons and intended to destroy Stannis’ fleet and army during the impending siege. Tyrion then takes control of the scheme.
In the north, the Night’s Watch arrives at an ancient fortress called the Fist of the First Men. Jeor Mormont allows Jon to join the team led by a veteran named Halfhand, to kill the enemy leader. In Qarth, Daxos proposes marriage to Daenerys in exchange for providing her his wealth to conquer the Seven Kingdoms. Ser Jorah convinces her to instead gain the Westerosi peoples’ support.

The second season of the fantasy drama television series Game of Thrones premiered in the United States on HBO on April 1, 2012, and concluded on June 3, 2012. It was broadcast on Sunday at 9:00 pm in the United States, consisting of 10 episodes, each running approximately 50–60 minutes. The season mostly covers the events of A Clash of Kings, the second novel of the A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R. R. Martin, adapted for television by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. HBO ordered the second season on April 19, 2011, which began filming in July 2011, primarily in Ireland, Northern Ireland, Croatia and Iceland.
Tyrion becomes Hand of the King in the hope of controlling Joffrey and curbing his vicious ways while Stannis is entranced by the witch Melisandre (Carice van Houten) and publicly claims the throne stating Joffrey’s illegitimacy – as Jaime is his real father.
Robb’s armies travel southward with Jaime Lannister as their prisoner of war. Robb sends Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen) to ask for an alliance with his father, Balon Greyjoy (Patrick Malahide). However, Theon betrays Robb and reunites with his family on the Iron Islands – seizing Winterfell. Bran is forced to escape to the wilderness.
Robb also asks Catelyn to meet Renly Baratheon (Gethin Anthony), Stannis’ younger brother who also has a claim to the Iron Throne. Catelyn suggests the brothers join forces but when Renly refuses, he is slain by an evil spirit conjured by Melisandre.
After Renly’s death, Catelyn and Renly’s bodyguard Brienne of Tarth (Gwendolyn Christie) are accused of murder and have to escape. Joining with Robb once more, the women plot to have Jaime returned to King’s Landing to try and exchange him for the captured Sansa.
At the Wall, Jon Snow discovers proof of infant sacrifices and leaves the Night’s Watch to join the Wildlings.
Arya is caught by Lannister soldiers, confined at the castle of Harrenhal and made to work as a servant by patriarch Tywin Lannister (Charles Dance). She flees with help from Jaqen H’ghar (Thomas Wlaschiha), a Faceless Man of Essos.
Stannis strives to attack King’s Landing by boat, but his armies are consumed by wildfire after Tyrion plays a clever trick.
Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys travels to Qarth, where she hopes to get support for her invasion of Westeros. This does not go as planned and she is captured in the House of the Undying, along with her dragons. However, she eventually escapes and destroys the city.
