"Walk of Punishment" is the third episode of the third season of HBO's medieval fantasy television series Game of Thrones, and the 23rd overall. The episode was written by series co-creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, and directed by Benioff. It first aired on HBO on April 14, 2013.

In the episode, Tyrion Lannister is named Master of Coin, and struggles to pay back the debt his predecessor left the kingdom in; Melisandre departs Dragonstone; Mance Rayder orders Jon Snow to climb the Wall with a group of wildlings; Theon Greyjoy escapes his captors at Winterfell; Arya and Gendry leave Hot Pie behind at the Inn before leaving with the Brotherhood; and Daenerys Targaryen negotiates with a slave master in Astapor to buy an army of soldiers. The title of the episode refers to a road in Astapor where slaves are crucified and displayed as examples to keep other slaves from rebelling.

The episode received positive reviews from critics, with many praising its final scene involving Jaime Lannister's hand being cut off, as well as the episode's levity and humor. It received a nomination for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Costumes for a Series at the 65th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards.
