Just another point of Sarah not really trusting Chuck wholeheartedly, in this episode (#20 of Season 4, vs the Family Volkoff). Man, she says something roughly like "its because of something I kept in case my dad geta arrested again". And her shocked expression when her fiance just signs it.

How could she be surprised?

Her lover is the BuyMore dude, who mind you makes roughly $11 an hour, yet never found a reason to steal money. Heck in Episode 10 alone of Season 2, Chuck showed he does not really care about money like that in 2 situations:

1. He was willing to lend Morgan $2,000 plus bucks, basically the entirety of his savings, as shown in that episode

2. He was not thrilled to see $10 million in his bank account in the same episode

Did she really think Chuck would stoop to stealing her money?

Heck, dude got paid in the end of Seaspn 2 and his first thought of how to spemd it is on his sister's wedding! And Sarah was specifically thrilled at that!

Say in between taking the throne and marrying Cersei Lannister, Bobby B somehow sleeps with Leyla Hightower (maybe at the feast of the coronation the family was there) and manages to keep the night secret. Leyla goes home, discovers she is preggers, tells her father and good old sister Malora, and the Hightowers tried their damnedest to keep this a secret. She gives birth to a healthy son, blue of eyes and black of hair, who naturally is tagged as a Flowers, and mother and son were kept strictly inside their holdfast to keep the secret

Leyton and Malora were suddenly getting it to their heads the boy is destined for greatness, so begins his education. The Mad Maid supervises the extensive array curriculum, while Baelor is tasked to squire his nephew and teach him how to fight and how to govern a castle and lands.

Suppose sometime before Jon Arryn's death, Bobby B got wind somehow that there is a boy at Oldtown who looked remarkably liked him, and thinking back, assumes the boy was his son with the Hightower girl. Now the king gets interested but also very careful, knowing if truth comes out, Cersei wouls not tolerate a highborn royal bastard like she did (barely) with his peasantborn bastards. Flashforwards when he was gutted by the boar and dying, Robert told Ned of the secret, and informed him he sent a letter to Stannis too, saying he had wanted to acknowledge and perhaps legitimize his bastard son.

Now Ned and Stannis had to decide what to do. But suppose they, for whatever reasons, decide to go for the boy and make him king.

Hence, the term War of the Bastards, because the two claimants to the Iron Throne are bastards. And Prancing of the Stags, because the two claims to be Baratheons. Though we know only one was a real stag.

And so, the Hightowers are up to their old antics again, manuevering for the throne.

Let's still call them the "Greens" like before, while the Lannisters are obviously the "Reds".

Now the parallels are staggering, right?

Viserys II - Robert Baratheon

Leyton/Malora - Otto

Alicent - Leyla

Rhaenyra - Cersei

Daemon - Jaime

Velaryon (Strong) siblings - Baratheon (Lannister siblings)

Corlys - Tywin

Aegon II - Robert and Leyla's son (sort of)

Who else?
