I'm pretty damned sure it didn't go that way in the books.
What scene are you referring to?
There's a lot of things that deviates from the book at this point. One small thing they have always done is having a known character fulfill another role in addition to his own, to stop crowding the show even more with actors. This is probably the smart thing to do, but it does send the message that the character that was cut, not only is he not important to the story now, he won't be important later in the books/show either. Which ruins it a tiny bit.
In episode 4 they did the same thing, but on a much more major scale. There is no way that won't impact the way the story is told. That is the biggest proof yet that the showrunners are carving out their own story.
