Cat fends off an assassin long enough for Bran’s direwolf to finish the job. Bran, would you just hurry up and name that thing? Cat concludes that the Lannisters are to blame and decides to head south to warn Ned of their perfidy. The boys discuss the ramifications and how long one should wait in a stable before springing your assassination plot. 

Chapter Review 
Robb tries to convince his mom to leave Bran’s side. Many people need her, and frankly Bran doesn’t. Her refusal is interrupted by a fire alarm. Everyone runs off to the burning tower leaving Cat alone with Bran. No mere fire is going to interrupt her vigil. Which is a miscalculation on behalf of the horse-stinking fancy-dagger wielding assassin who appears in the doorway. “You’re not supposed to be here!” Well she is and she’s going to defend Bran with her life. She takes a horrible hand-wound and is finally overpowered. But Bran is saved by his direwolf who rips the guys throat out. Cat decides the nice doggy can stay by Bran’s side now.  

As she recovers she casts off her malaise, blames the Lannisters, and resolves to head south to tell Ned.
