Tyrion Lannister's Trial Gets the Animated Spoof It Deserves

For those that haven't read George R. R. Martin's books, the outcome of Tyrion Lannister's trial presumably won't be known until Sunday's episode, but this animated spoof gets at the absurdity of his circumstances in short order.

Spoiler alert: Spoilers for the most recent episodes of Game of Thrones follow in the text and video above.

Those keeping up with Game of Thrones (aka you, your mom, and everyone else you know) are awaiting Tyrion Lannister's trial for the death of King Joffrey Baratheon. Things aren't looking good for the Imp: he's been unjustly accused by his sister Cersei, and no one seems prepared to step up and defend him. If you haven't read George R.R. Martin's books, you won't know the outcome of the trial until Sunday's episode, but this animated spoof by Leigh Lahav gets at the absurdity of poor Tyrion's circumstances in short order—with a cameo from none other than Ser Pounce. This is the Internet, after all; there's gotta be a cat.
