Alright, so the other day I found myself going down a bit of a Game of Thrones rabbit hole, as you do. I was replaying some of the big moments in my head, and one particular question popped up: when exactly did Jaime Lannister lose his hand? It’s such a massive turning point for his character, you know? But the precise episode number was eluding me.
My first thought was, “Okay, it was definitely after he was captured by Robb Stark’s people, but before… well, before a lot of other crazy stuff happened.” My memory was a bit hazy. Was it season two? Early season three? I really couldn’t pinpoint it.
My Little Investigation
So, I did what any curious fan would do. I fired up my trusty laptop and opened up a search engine. My search query was probably something super sophisticated like “jaime lannister hand cut off episode” or “what episode jaime loses hand game of thrones.” Real technical stuff, I tell ya.
I started clicking through a few of the results. You know how it is, sometimes you get listicles, sometimes fan theories. I was looking for something a bit more concrete, like an episode guide or a reliable fan wiki. I remember landing on a page that talked a lot about the symbolism, which was interesting, but not what I was after right then.
After a couple of clicks, filtering out the general character bios, I started seeing a consistent answer pop up across a few different sources. It’s usually a good sign when multiple places agree, right?
The Answer Uncovered
And there it was! I finally nailed it down. It wasn’t just a vague “early season three” feeling anymore. I had the specific episode.
So, for anyone else out there who’s had this question rattling around in their brain, here’s what I found through my little digging session: Jaime Lannister loses his hand in Season 3, Episode 3. The episode is titled “Walk of Punishment.”
Man, what a scene that was. It really changed everything for him. Anyway, that was my little quest for the day. Just wanted to share the process because sometimes it’s these little details that stick with you, and you just have to find the answer!
