      Yeah but most of his speeches were hypocritical as Tyrion’s points out during the one scene. He gives a good lesson about “the house that puts family over the wishes of its individual members is generally the house that wins” and yet Tyrion can’t help but laugh and says “When have you done anything that wasn’t in your own best interest” and there’s so much truth to that, sure some things he did were “for the greater good” but a lot of it was selfish decisions for personal gain that just happened to also benefit the Lannisters in turn, and some of it was just selfish and unproductive like what he did to both the women Tyrion loved (tysha and shae) sleeping with shae wasn’t for the “good of the family” it was just Sadistic and selfish.

      @@MrBubblecake It's poetically put how it all ends. Ned's decision to protect his family and teach them to love each other starts out as disgraced 'traitor' to the realm and eventually lead to a lasting legacy he never intended with many friends and foes who speak of his devotion to honor. His children became royalty and garnered respect many parts of the realm. Because of who he was, his honorable reputation in life is always constantly aided his surviving kids and people would risk their lives even after the Starks are dead and defeated in order to save the ones who remain.
      All while Tywin's constant preaching of legacy to better his house's name becomes a absolute joke that is quickly remembered only in the manner he died, taking crossbolts from a son he tries to kill while taking a dump. People refuse to enter his funeral in the books because his stench reeked the church and people will forever make fun of the Lannister's fall from grace with a humiliated queen, dead incest children and handicapped men.

      @@JeffCJY To be fair, he did take care of his house by advancing it's position. He made Cersei queen by consistenty forcing her to marry into royalty. He waged war for house Lannister because Tyrion was a member who was wrongfully arrested. He continued to wage war and rooting his house in the middle of Westeros politics until they are the most powerful one by the end of the first part of Wot5K.
      His major flaw was the hypocrisy of helping only the house in name but never it's members. Cersei is a miserable spoiled woman who's only major importance to Tywin is who she marries and who she breeds but had no qualifications in ruling and ends up causing their downfall when Tywin is no longer there to delegate for her. Jaime having no ambition and content with being who he wants to be goes against his house by agreeing to being a Kingsguard, refusing to be heir and committing incest that led to being in conflict with the Starks. Tyrion is self explanatory and the most obvious of Tywin's lack of familial empathy; he's the one who's the most abused, have been constantly tried to get killed and humiliated to the point where he literally becomes Tywin's doom. He never cared for his children in the way Ned did and that's the reason why house Lannister lost. Their house legacy is the same as their house words, "Hear me roar" nothing more than a majestic projection that doesn't last. All because Tywin had a illusion of what legacy was.

    Out of everyone in the show, Tywin really had the perfect downfall. All his life as a father, his single biggest flaw was never his ignorance of what Cersei and Jaime were doing in the bedroom, but his ignorance of the truth that Tyrion was the exact heir he'd always wanted. Calculating and intelligent, ruthless and fierce when necessary, serving the family's best interests even if they despise him for it, and much more sympathetic, loving and kind than Tywin ever was. But all that ever mattered to Tywin was the fact Tyrion was a dwarf and his wife died birthing him, thus he treated him like a monster, forcing Tyrion to turn to drinking and whoring as a coping mechanism. House Lannister was doomed the moment Tywin sentenced Tyrion to death.

    It's beautiful how Tywin is trying to manipulate him.
    1. "You've wanted me dead." ... "Yes." - He is not denying it anymore to set a tone of being truthful.
    2. "You've refused to die. I respect that. Even admire it..." - Trying to twist that and create a positive connection between the two.
    3. "I'd never let them execute you." - After establishing his truthfulness and some positivity he says what he thinks Tyrion wants to hear.
    4. "You're a Lannister." - Family connection.
    5. "You're my son." - He has fought all his life against that notion even saying that he wished he could prove that to not be true.
    --"I murdered her." - Tywin realizes Tyrion has already killed and that stakes are higher than he suspected. --
    6. "Doesn't matter." - Downplaying it. He's trying to lead Tyrion into thinking that there is a way out of it without killing him.
    7. "She was a whore." - Trying to remove the throw the connection Tyrion had with Shae into doubt, lessen it.
    8. "And you'll kill your own father in the privy? No. You're my son." - Again he brings up that they are family while at the same time trying to force Tyrion to imagine the act of patricide.
    9. "Now enough of this nonsense." - Trying to take control away from Tyrion.
    10. "We go back to my chambers and speak with some dignity." - He has no answer to Tyrion's question so he makes a play to gain control of the situation. All he needs is for Tyrion to let him stand up.
    11. "You're afraid of a dead whore." - Convinced he has gained control over Tyrion to some extent he tries to solidify it. It fails.
    12. "You're no son of mine." - The truth comes out of Tywin's mouth. Of course, he would let them kill Tyrion.
    Now, would the Tysha thing be better? Yes.
    Is this exceptionally well written? Yes.

      I noticed that the great downfall of a lot of characters in the story resides in weather or not they hold true to their beliefs.
      Ned forgoes his honor to prevent a war or his children's death by falsely confessing before he's executed.
      Tywin claims to put family first but dies by abusing his son to the breaking point.
      Khal drogo listens to a woman and breaks taboo which results in a duel that leads to infection and death.
      Allister thorne betrays his watch commander and oath leading to his execution.
      Rob breaks a promise to marry a frey and pays the price.
      Walder frey murders the starks at the wedding leading to his own death.
      Theres a ton of others too, basically if you go against your word you're taken out by fate and irony unless you're inherently disloyal like little finger or the spider, I'm not counting the final 2 seasons.
      This trend of strict adherence to one's belief is all over the series and explains why certain characters thrive as well. Bronn is a sell sword for example and never falters even when friendship or sentiment are involved, no doubt the mountain would have killed him anyway simply on the grounds of him breaking his characters foundations like the others do.
      My personal theory any way.
      I love the theory too because of the fact that Jon adheres to his oaths so fervently and to the letter that despite everyone thinking he's lost his mind and broken his oath he technically never does, his allowance of the freefolk to cross the border doesn't break oaths, in fact its reinforcing them as he's guarding the realm of men including them, making his resurrection effectively a universal course correction.

He looks so exhausted and sad throughout it all, and there is no joy in any of it. The fact that this show's decline began soon after makes it worse. So much worse.

He had a real opportunity to show Tywin what he could do, and Tywin knew he wasn't stupid, but Tyrion was always a bit sheisty when it came to certain things about his father, like he intentionally wanted to go against him just to pull hairs. I do feel bad for Tyrion generally, because Tywin is obviously pathological, but he tends to find his own excuses for his problems rather then accept the truth.

      @@zigmeesherpa4488 This scene isn't indicative of how Tywin would have act had things been different. They had gone back and forth so much by this point that it was well and truly ruined, but Tywin was a lot less hostile towards Tyrion in season 1-3 where most of these opportunities happened. No one will say that they hated the scene with Tywin complimenting Tyrion when all of his generals, and even Jaime, were fucking up. We knew Tywin was a hard man, but this was a complete 180 and not in character for him, and you could tell even Tyrion was somewhat surprised at this offer and opportunity. In no uncertain terms, do not bring Shae. He did it anyway and she was the domino that tipped the rest.
      We will never know if Tywin would have come to accept Tyrion, but the evidence is strong that he would have had a much different opinion if Tyrion wasn't constantly disobeying him in one way or another. Still, this isn't meant to sweep anything Tywin did to Tyrion under the rug, and he is obviously not the greatest of fathers or the nicest of men, but we see his soft side in many situations, like when he deals with Arya, and you can almost forgive him when you take a look, rationally, at how Tyrion acted around him.
      Though, I suppose it is worth mentioning, and something I just remembered, that Tyrion does tell the story about his fiancé to Shae, how his father was involved and what he did. It's interesting, because I feel like the sole reason this story exists and is told is to make Tyrions decision to disobey his father and bring Shae later understandable. It's hard to blast a character like Tyrion because he's so likable, relatable, etc etc, but I still believe a lot of the harm that happens to him he does to himself. He is deeply flawed character who hides behind his humor, so regardless of how much we might like him, we should accept that.

    Tyrion's finger clenched. The crossbow whanged just as Lord Tywin started to rise. The bolt slammed into him above the groin and he sat back down with a grunt. The quarrel had sunk deep, right to the fletching. Blood seeped out around the shaft, dripping down into his pubic hair and over his bare thighs. "You shot me," he said incredulously, his eyes glassy with shock.
    "You always were quick to grasp a situation, my lord," Tyrion said. "That must be why you're the Hand of the King."
    "You... you are no... no son of mine."
    "Now that's where you're wrong, Father. Why, I believe I'm you writ small. Do me a kindness now, and die quickly. I have a ship to catch."
    For once, his father did what Tyrion asked him. The proof was the sudden stench, as his bowels loosened in the moment of death. Well, he was in the right place for it, Tyrion thought. But the stink that filled the privy gave ample evidence that the oft-repeated jape about his father was just another lie.

He always treated him as lesser than Jamie or Cersei even though Tyrion is the most like him out of all of them. He was probably the best schemer in the show. He is the guy who took down Robb and was single handily keeping the Lannisters afloat. But Tryion was his one oversight. He never saw that Tyrion was the one son he always wanted. Smart and loyal. But he always saw as an annoyance and an embarrassment. Someone who would never achieve much. Even with a crossbow pointed at him he still abuses Tyrion.

Rather than the casual "You're afraid of a dead whore?" being what sets Tyrion off, it's the snide "Wherever whores go" in reference to Tysha, who was not a whore and was just an innocent common woman brutalized by Tywin, that drives Tyrion over the edge.

    I do still think the show made a big mistake by removing the Tysha revelation - in the books, Jaime confesses to Tyrion that the girl he fell in love with and married who turned out to be a prostitute? Wasn't a prostitute, the entire thing about her being a prostitute Jaimie hired for Tyrion to lose his virginity to was a lie. Tyrion had a genuine shot at happiness with someone who loved him, but Tywin (and to a lesser extent, Jaimie) took that from him in a pretty horrific way. Tyrion snaps and kills Tywin largely because Tywin won't tell him/doesn't know where Tysha went, just responding that she went "Wherever whores go." And after that, those words become a REALLY focal point for the rest of Tyrion's arc.

      I was so mad about this I stopped watching that show. Everything was like in the book, except the dialogues. This way they made kind of cheap soap opera. They made Tyrion in love with Shae, a true whore and this was his motive to kill his own father. While in the books he had much bigger reasons. That scene when Jaime told him the truth was so powerful. Tyrion not only lost love of his life, a girl who truly fell in love with him. His father also made him watching when soldiers were raping her. They treated her like a whore, maybe even they thought she was the one, but she wasn't and she didn't want that. She was raped by entire garrison and Tywin made his son watching that. So killing him is fully understandable when Tyrion found out the truth.

It's actually a tv series adaptation that he's actually clever. It's usually from borrowing from Braavosi banks and other houses, which is why he's afloat at all. This was why the Tyrell marriage was important as Tyrell are one of the most prosperous houses and it would have guarded against the debtors. He's usually just a semi-alright bully.

    Tywin Lannister is definitely one of the deepest most nuanced characters on the show. He's not moustache twirlingly evil, but will do evil things to keep the family's power. But never more than he had to. He treated Arya as almost the decent daughter he never had, even though he has sort of figured her out. He hated Tyrion for his looks, and was embarrassed by him. Yet he clearly admired him in terms of his intelligence and abilities. And he shared everyone's disgust for Joffrey, but knew things had to stay the way they were for Tywin's purposes.

    One of the things I love about this scene is that Tywin is so close, SO CLOSE to talking Tyrion out of killing him, and for a moment you think: wait, does Tywin actually finally GET Tyrion? Does he finally understand? And then he calls Shae a whore and you see that Tywin only understands, has only ever understood things apart and in isolation. Maybe he understands what words he needs to stay to please Tyrion but he doesn't understand WHY he needs to say them. He understands that Tyrion is upset but not why. He just can't get that murdering Shae upset Tyrion on a level more serious than the mere shock of killing someone. He absolutely dumpsters any chances he had of surviving the night by calling her a whore, and even when he must clearly see he's made a mistake he keeps on doing it.
    And when Tyrion shoots him, he just has a breakdown over the fact that his manipulation didn't work. He doesn't even have the presence of mind to try and beg for his life or talk Tyrion down, he just throws a tantrum and absolutely ensures his death.

      I don’t think Tywin was even remotely close to talking Tyrion down. Tyrion knows how his dad operates and his dad has made it clear that he hates his guts. When he started in about you’re my son, I admire you, blah blah blah, Tyrion wasn’t even listening in my opinion. He knew before he stepped foot in the privy that Tywin would try to manipulate the situation, and he wasn’t hearing any of it because he had spent his life hearing the exact opposite from the same man. The only reason he even engaged in conversation with Tywin was because he still didn’t understand why his own father hated him, and he was hoping Tywin would give some more insight into that before the end.

    Tywin had some of the best themes in all of television. A man who valued pride and dignity over everything, meets his end in the most undignified way, on the toilet. An embarrassing death, one he would have hated. At the hands of Tyrion, the incarnation of his shame that he tried so hard to run from.
    Even when his life is in danger he still can't let the mask slip, he must cling on to any dignity he has left, trying to manipulate and bargain his way out of the situation with compliments through gritted teeth. You can see the effort it takes him to admit Tyrion is his son even though he might die.
    It was his pride that killed him in the end, literally there is a lion on the crossbow. The Lannister symbol is a lion, and a lion is associated with pride. Really great writing throughout.

    While the book had a wonderfully dramatic and even ever-so-slightly comedic flair with Tyrion's last words to his father and his thoughts as Tywin lay dying, the show's choice of last words was equally as good and truly played up the tragedy of the scene.
    "I am your son. I have always been your son."
    All Tyrion needed was a father that loved him. All of this could have been prevented. Even if all the world saw a monster, all Tyrion needed was a family that saw him as a Lannister. Look how much Tyrion accomplished when all he had was Jamie keeping him sane and treating him like an actual person. Imagine what Tyrion could have accomplished with the support of his father and sister. That's the real tragedy. For all his talks of preserving his family's legacy, Tywin was instrumental in its downfall.

      ​@@MikeJones-qn1gz "The 40th episode of the series overall, "The Children" was written by series co-creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, and directed by Alex Graves." D&D have talent. Many of the best scenes in the early seasons are heavily changed by them or are original scenes, but they started taking shortcuts and rushed the ending. If the books were all finished, I don't think they would have done that though.
      George spent over a decade on Book 4 and 5, and had so much difficulty writing them compared to the first 3 books that he called the experience the "Meereenese knot". haha. He wasn't willing to take shortcuts and the story became too big and difficult for him to manage, and now he'll likely never finish the series. *I think they saw the author's immense difficulty with finishing this story and took some bad lessons from it,* e.g. just gut the Dorne storylines because the story will get too complicated. Shortcuts, shortcuts, shortcuts. Otherwise, they'd need to spend another 5-6 years on it while needing to somehow maintain the same quality as novels from one of the greatest fantasy series ever, without the ability to take a break and regroup.
      The original pilot was a bit of a mess but they took accountability and explained everything wrong with it. They likely understand everything wrong with the later seasons. I think that their next adaption, The Three-Body Problem, will probably be good.

Tyrion, on the other hand, has no such commitments, nor an incestuous history dogging him at every step. He's intelligent, cunning, and quick-witted. He's a great leader, something Tywin recognized, if begrudgingly, but never could fully accept due to Tyrion's dwarfism.

    I love this end for Tywin. He was a genius at the game of thrones and played it to perfection but he missed the loving part. Only practicality no warmth.
