−	After they leave and the festivities begin to wind down, [[Catelyn]] becomes suspicious when she notices [[Walder Rivers|Black Walder Rivers]] close the banquet hall doors and the musicians in the gallery begin playing "[[The Rains of Castamere (song)|The Rains of Castamere]]" – the song commemorating [[House Lannister]]'s decisive and brutal victory against the [[Reyne Rebellion|rebellious]] [[House Reyne]] of [[Castamere]] years ago. Walder rises to make a toast to Robb, and Catelyn, seated beside Lord [[Roose Bolton]], notices that the latter is wearing mail under his clothing. Realizing they are in a trap, Catelyn slaps Roose across the face and screams a warning to Robb, but by then it is too late. Lord Walder signals his men to attack. In what becomes known as the infamous [[Red Wedding]], [[Lothar Frey|Lothar]] draws a knife and repeatedly stabs the pregnant Talisa in the stomach. Talisa collapses to the ground as chaos surrounds. Before he can react, Robb is shot by the musicians with crossbows several times and falls to the ground. Numerous other Stark men are killed by the crossbow bolts or set upon by Frey soldiers. Catelyn is shot by one of the musicians in the back and falls to the ground.	+	After they leave and the festivities begin to wind down, [[Catelyn]] becomes suspicious when she notices [[Walder Rivers|Black Walder Rivers]] close the banquet hall doors and the musicians in the gallery begin playing "[[The Rains of Castamere (song)|The Rains of Castamere]]" – the song commemorating [[House Lannister]]'s decisive and brutal victory against the [[Reyne Rebellion|rebellious]] [[House Reyne]] of [[Castamere]] years ago.
