Did Peter Dinklage spit chewing gum into his wife's mouth after Emmy win?

In all of yesterday's Emmy excitement, there was one moment involving an incredibly shocked Game of Thrones winner that was almost completely overlooked.

A number of eagle-eyed tweeters noticed that GOT star Peter Dinklage was chewing gum before his name was announced as the winner of Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series. Then when he got onstage to accept the award, it was gone.

What happened? Watch the video above and draw your own conclusion. But we'll say this: Thank the Emmy gods for best supporting wives like Erica Schmidt.

Peter, 46, even acknowledged the mysteriously disappearing gum at the start of his acceptance speech. Let's hope he showed Erica his full appreciation in a major way after the show. Flowers are nice...diamonds, better.
