Of course he's acting! If I'm wrong about this I'll be angry that they fake foreshadowed it with the letters.

In the words of the Troll from =3 ...

FAAAAKE. And gay, cuz it's Griffith. :P

Yet more intrigue from those shady nobles. I'm sure Griffith's 'death' is going to motivate Guts to stick around at least long enough to shed some blue blood, then the demons will probably come calling.

Haha but seriously ol' Griff knew baldie was out to get him. Maybe Guts did a switcharoo of the goblets off-screen.

He is probably faking it, because it is not possible that an oral medicine would show its effects so fast.

I'm positive that Griffith told Fuss that he knew about his plans and now he is probably working for Griffith. That is the reason he was so nervous. And I guess they way Griffith put it was the best way to get rid of that poison, to act as if he drunk that and fell.

100% sure Griffith will survive, the creepy amulet will help him. Also I'm sure the short bald guy got the message from him and the Queen will die instead somehow...I'm more occupied with cheering for Guts and Casca to fall in love. They are now my fave straight anime "if only" couple. Casca please forget Griffith he is bishi and amazing but you don't need a sixth sense to know something is not right with that albino blond guy b̶e̶s̶i̶d̶e̶s̶ ̶h̶e̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶g̶a̶y̶.... As characters I get attached to tend to DIE A HORRIBLE CRUEL DEATH..I'm afraid I will end up in tears at the end of this story...again...sigh...

He's faking it. No way he fell for that. Or he has a plan to counter it at least. That was insta-poison!

Obviously, Griffith had a hunch and prepared a counter-plan for his comeback. But it was still good to watch it. (only "bad" part: I hate the female dress code of those times)

I suppose he went along with it rather than exposing them because it would be hard to prove its poisoned. Although the letter was most definitely from Griffith.

I wonder what it contains besides the fact that he knew they were scheming against him? Maybe it contains his own little scheme.

Oh I didn't realize Guts was also in on the scheme. I thought he was talking about the occasion. Well I'm glad Griffith isn't keeping him in the dark.

Another great episode from a legendary series

Ok this series keeps upping itself up

Poison won't work at all.

Griffith has got to be my favorite character hands down. Even though I relate much more to Guts himself, I still relate to Griffith's ideals more than Guts'

Some lovely moments.. Guts smiling at Griffith, Guts and Casca's moments.. I wonder how Griffith will survive this, and if he's faking it, how will it play out?

I want to know why Guts is leaving the Band, yes, he felt bad realizing that Griffis didn't see him as a friend, but still.. it feels sad.

Obviously Griffith is just faking the whole thing since he sent that minister a letter with whatever he could dig up about him. I wonder who will get poisoned instead though.

Woah woah, I did not expect that they would be able to get Griffith poisoned that easily, Griffith should have expected this.

The more I keep noticing is that the bald headed guy and the queen look like the creepy people who were haunting Guts in episode 1.

Casca x Guts vibes were strong in this one. The Band of the Hawk gets promoted to the highest militray rank. All those noblewomen were pretty thirsty.

I refuse to believe there's any poison that works that quickly, so Griffith's probably faking it. I do wonder what was in the letter to Foss though. And when will Guts sneak away?
