Here's one thing I don't get over the first three seasons. Tywin's a smart guy. He's always seemingly a step ahead of everyone else on the battlefield and in the politics on the show. But he doesn't seem to know that his own son and daughter have an incestuous relationship and produced three children from it (pretty much everyone else in King's Landing knows as much and have for a long time including Tyrion, Varys, Littlefinger, etc.). Does he really not know? Or does he know and is just in denial about that and won't ever bring it up to them out of the shame of it? I would guess the latter. Perhaps he thinks it reflects on him being some kind of failure of a father to them.
