Game of Thrones may have ended, but the rivalry between Daenerys Targaryen and Sansa Stark lives on.

On Wednesday's episode of The Tonight Show, dragon queen Emilia Clarke addressed Sophie Turner's implication that she was behind the infamous coffee cup that appeared in Game of Thrones' final season.

The Queen of the North had pointed the finger at Clarke when she spoke to Fallon back in May. However Clarke has claimed innocence, and is now accusing Conleth Hill, who played Varys, of being the true culprit – an accusation backed by some pretty compelling evidence.

"It was Conleth's coffee cup! He said so!" Clarke exclaimed to Fallon. "He's like, 'I think it was, I'm sorry darling, I didn't want to say anything 'cause it seemed, you know, the heat was very much on you,' and I was like, 'WHAT!?'"

Clarke seemed indignant — but she probably should have expected Varys would betray his queen again.
