‘Game of Thrones’ Final 3 Episodes Return:Peter Dinklage Tyrion’s Trial By Combat [SPOILERS]

Game of Thrones is all new this weekend with the first of the final three episode of the season. Check to plot synopsis below to see what is in store for Tyrion’s champion Oberyn, as he takes on the Mountain. Will The Red Viper prevail and save Peter Dinklage’s character?

The official plot synopsis for this weekend’s all new episode of Game of Thrones, Titled “The Mountain and the Viper.” reads:

“A verdict is reached on Tyrion's fate; unexpected visitors arrive in Mole's Town.”

Prince Oberyn might be in over his head in tonight battle. Oberyn actor Pedro Pascal recently spoke to TV Guide about his opponent:

“He's nearly a foot taller than me. He's 6-foot-9; I'm 5-foot-11. I think he's nearly three times my weight. He's 420 pounds of muscle. It felt like I was with a giant. And then put him in the armor, and his sword alone was exactly my height. It was incredibly intimidating but also really delightful because I think that the character Oberyn really relishes that kind of challenge."

Showrunner Dan Weiss recently singing the praises of the Monutian to Entertainment Weekly.

“It’s one of those fights that from the very beginning of the process of planning the show before season one we knew would be a high point if done properly. And it’s a real challenge because The Mountain is The Mountain--you need to find an enormous human being who can also deliver what you need on physical front. And you need an Oberyn who delivers what you need as an actor and pull off the extremely strenuous side of that fight, which we shot over several days. We were lucky to find Pedro Pascal for Oberyn, who gives such a stunning, fun, and dangerous performance. And Hafþór for The Mountain is a truly unusual specimen--I believe he’s the third-strongest man in the world and a former basketball player, so he knows how to move. To see somebody who is 6′ 9″ and moving the way he does in person is a surreal sight to behold.”
