So Did We Hear What We Thought We Heard on Last Night's Game of Thrones?

During a scene with Jaime Lannister and Cersei Lannister, it sounded like someone had some gas problems on the HBO series

Jon Snow lives! Flashback to the Tower of Joy! R + L = J...almost! Arya can see! Jon apparently has a small penis! So much happened on last night's Game of Thrones, and yet the only thing Twitter was still buzzing about Monday morning involved a seemingly innocent scene with Jamie and Cersei Lannister, the Mountain and Grand Maester Pycelle.

Ladies and gents, this is #FartGate.

So Pycelle is just going on and on about how the Mountain is a terrible experiment gone awry and how he should be destroyed, basically throwing mad shade about the giant zombie man to Lady Tyrell and Mace Tyrell. And guess who interrupts the council meeting and said shade-throwing?

Giant zombie man. Plus the Lannisters. Upon seeing that scary squad enter the room, Pycelle goes silent. Except for his sphincter. That did not remain silent. We're talking about FARTS, you guys. Watch below and listen for yourself:

Fans couldn't believe it. Was that a chair squeaking as the group turned toward the party crashers? Or some other offcamera noise the sound editors forgot to take out? Twitter is alive with tweets about #FartGate, which is the hashtag that everyone should be using when talking about Pycelle's gas pass from this point on:

To be fair, at least this fart kind of worked with the scene. Obviously the old man was so frightened by The Mountain that he almost crapped his pants. He managed to keep his pants clean, but he had to let that fart escape. The Mountain is scary, y'all. Or maybe it was Cersei's wig. That's equally scary. 

What's important to take away from #FartGate is that even if your TV show is all about the drama and murder and betrayal and so on and so forth, you can still manage to slip in a fart joke every once in a while and (mostly) get away with it.

Hey, HBO. We have a new tagline for you:

"Game of Thrones: come for the politics and family dynamics, stay for the farts."
