In-depth analysis of The Small Council Chairs Scene from Game of Thrones Season 2 Episode 3.

Tyrion and Varys sit across from each other in a quiet room. The setting is intimate, almost casual. Two men having a conversation that appears simple on the surface but carries layers underneath.
Varys poses a question. In a room sit three great men. A king, a priest, and a rich man. Between them stands a common sellsword. Each of the three commands the sellsword to kill the other two.
