Because of the hostility and disdain he's shown him so far.
When we landed here you said you needed a few days to get space worthy again and is there somethin' wrong with your bunk?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
Bonny- there's not another wolf killing scene in the book so far (and i'm on #4). There is, however, plenty of gore and dismemberment to come. The entire series is, after all, about power play and feudal war.
Lady's death is brutal, but also a pivotal scene for many reasons: it removes a huge symbol of Sansa's protection, rendering her more helpless to being used by the Lannisters; becomes a frequent callback for Arya in ways that would be spoilerish to discuss; and gives Ned a clearcut, obvious reason to loathe Cersei's manipulations. Plus it shows the reader/viewer early on just how loathesome she is.
All this said with the caveat that i haven't seen the show yet, only read the books.
I'm rather appalled to hear that Dany's wedding night is made into a rape scene. In the books she is clearly terrified, but willingly submits as her duty. It takes months of submission before she comes to love him and participate equally. Making that into a rape....well, it's going to sorely undermind her emotional development with Drago that leads her to take later, pivotal actions. Hrm.
eta: i'm actually on the third book, not the fourth

We need to make sure we're all careful about what we discuss from book knowledge here. Dany's soul-crushing love is news to me, for instance.
