War is coming to Game of Thrones in the June 12 episode. Given what happened in the most recnt episode, that should not be surprising.
Ned Stark is now imprisoned in the dungeons. The Lannisters are in full control of King's Landing. After Stark was captured, Lannister soldiers were sent to seize his daughters. Arya managed to escape, but Sansa was brow-beaten into following the orders of Cersei and her allies. She wrote to her brother Robb to let him know that their father is now being held for treason.
News of King Robert's death and Ned's charges of treason spread quickly. Catelyn heard of it while still visiting with her sister Lysa, who refused to offer her soldiers to help Cat and Ned. Robb heard of it in Winterfell and has decided to round up his own army of his father's allies and march to King's Landing to face the Lannisters and try to save his father. Even Jon Snow heard of it while at The Wall and wants to leave in order to help his family.
The Dothraki, meanwhile, are determined to reach Westeros in order to claim it for Daenerys and Drogo's son, as Drogo ordered in the last episode. While on a rampage throughout a town, Daenerys ordered men to stop "claiming their spoils" (ie. raping) of the women they had now conquered. One of the Dothraki was not pleased when Drogo sided with his wife in this matter and challenged him, but Drogo proved he is a fierce warrior and literally ripped out the man's tongue.
Sansa stole the episode, meanwhile, by going before Joffrey and sutbly begging him to spare her father's life. He agreed, but only if Ned confessed his sins and accepted Joffrey as king.
In the June 12 episode of Game of Thrones, Ned is presented with the opportunity to save his life, but only if he'll turn his back on the truth. Robb continues to ride south, while Tyrion commands a part of his father's armies. And Jon Snow is desperate to join his brother in the fight.
