While rewatching season 1, I noticed a plot element that really didn’t make any sense. When Robert dies and gives his will to Ned, how the fuck was Cersei allowed to just straight up ignore it and tear it up? Robert clearly signed off on it, and the Baratheon seal was unbroken. Ned was supposed to be protector of the realm and serve as temp king till Joffrey came of age. Even though Ned wrote “rightful heir” instead of Joffrey specifically, he hadn’t made any indication yet that he was pulling for Stannis, so nobody should have questioned anything.
I just don’t understand how Cersei and Joffrey just instantly have complete power over Ned and could do literally whatever they wanted the second Robert died, even when Robert himself had a plan laid out that went against their motives.
Can anyone explain?
