The Laws of Gods and Men - S4-E6

Corrected entry: After Davos has introduced Stannis with all his proper titles at the Iron Bank of Braavos, the clerk wrongly uses the title "Protector of the Realm" for Tommen. However Tommen doesn't bear this title because he is not old enough yet. Protector of the Realm at that time is Tywin Lannister.

Tanngrisnir

Correction: It's an understandable character mistake. Braavos residents don't use titles like Westeros, and the clerk is simply repeating all the titles that Davos recited, and probably just believes whoever sits on The Iron Throne is the recipient of all the titles.

Season 1 generally

Question: After watching the show and reading the first book, I can't figure out why people hate Jaime for killing King Aerys. Aerys is referred to as the "Mad King" and more than one person talks about his sick deeds. Even Ned doesn't seem to approve of Jaime's actions, yet Aerys killed his father and brother. Even if Jaime did have a duty to guard the king, didn't he actually do everyone a favor by killing Aerys?

Answer: Basically it's because he broke his vow. A member of the Kingsguard is sworn to protect the king at all costs. Jaime elaborates more on the deed to both Catelyn Stark and Brienne of Tarth, telling Catelyn that no matter what course of action he took, he would be breaking one vow or another (i.e. if he obeyed the king, he would conversely be disobeying his own father), and telling Brienne that the Mad King was planning on burning all of King's Landing, but he did not bother to tell Ned Stark that. Ned Stark felt that killing Aerys was dishonorable and excessive. Robert Baratheon still could have usurped the throne without Aerys being killed.
