"I am acting on Lady Stark's orders to return Jaime Lannister to King's Landing." "When King Robb left Harrenhal, his mother was his prisoner." "If she wasn't his mother, he'd have hanged her for treason." "I should send you back to Robb Stark." "You should." "But instead, you're sitting here watching me fail at dinner." "Why might that be?" "Wars cost money." "Many people would pay a great deal for you." "We both know who would pay the most." "Or make you pay the most if he found out you had captured me and sent me back up north for a summary execution." "You're right." "Perhaps the safest thing to do is to kill you both and burn your bodies." "It would be, if you honestly believed my father would never find out about it." "King Robb is keeping your father quite busy." "He doesn't have time for anything else." "He'll make time for you." "As soon as you're well enough to travel," "I will allow you to go to King's Landing as restitution for the mistakes my soldiers made."

"I'm something of an expert on the subject." "Her change will be upon her before long." "I'll spare you the details of what will happen then." "You men may have a stomach for bloodshed and slaughter, but this is another matter entirely." "The years punish us as well, I promise you that." "My stomach remains quite strong, however." "The only thing that might turn it are details of your grandson's nocturnal activities." " Do you deny them?" " Oh, not at all." "A sword swallower through and through." "And a boy with his affliction should be grateful for the opportunity to marry the most beautiful woman in the kingdoms and remove the stain from his name." "Did you grow up with boy cousins, Lord Tywin?" "Sons of your father's bannermen, squires, stable boys?" "Of course." "And you never..." "No." "Not once?" "Not in any way?" "Never." "I congratulate you upon your restraint." "But it's a natural thing, two boys having a go at each other beneath the sheets." "Perhaps Highgarden has a high tolerance for unnatural behavior." "I wouldn't say that." "True, we don't tie ourselves in knots over a discreet bit of buggery, but... brothers and sisters" "where I come from, that stain would be very difficult to wash out." "I will not breathe further life into a malicious lie by discussing it." "Lie or not, you must admit many people find it quite convincing." "Convincing enough to put swords in their hands and send them off to kill Lannisters and Tyrells thanks to our new affiliation." "I don't care what people believe." "And neither do you." "( chuckles ) As an authority on myself, I must disagree." "Now, if the rumors about my children were true, then Joffrey is no king at all and House Tyrell is throwing its prized flower into the dirt." "And if Cersei is too old to give Loras children, we're throwing another prized flower into the dirt." "It is a chance we simply cannot take." "The uncertainty makes you uncomfortable." "All right." "I'll remove it for you." "If you refuse to marry Loras to Cersei," "I will name him to the Kingsguard." "I'm sure you're familiar with the Kingsguard vows." "He will never marry." " He will never have children." " Oh..." "The Tyrell name will fade." "And Highgarden will go to the children of Joffrey and Margaery." "You would have your grandson protected by someone who disgusts you?" "I would have my grandson protected by a skilled warrior who takes his vows seriously." "So, shall I draw up the order?" "Or do you consent to this marriage?" "It's a rare enough thing-- a man who lives up to his reputation." " ( men shouting ) - ( wind howling )" "( cracking )" "( screaming )" "No!"

"I've dreamed of a large wedding since I was quite young." "The guests, the food, the tournaments." "And the bride, of course." "The most beautiful bride in the world in a beautiful gown of gold and green brocade with fringed sleeves." "Have you ever been to Highgarden, my lady?" "No." "I had never left Winterfell before I came to King's Landing." "But it sounds wonderful." "I can't wait to see it." "And to leave this place." "It's terrible, isn't it?" "The most terrible place there is." "Tyrion:" "I don't suppose there's anything we can do about this." "We can have them both killed." "It's hard to say which of the four of us is getting the worst of this arrangement." "Probably Sansa." "Though Loras will certainly come to know a deep and singular misery."

"If it weren't for your trick with the wildfire," "Stannis would have sacked the city before Father got here." "Our heads would still be rotting on the city gate." "Trying to have me killed is an odd way of saying thank you." "There are two people in King's Landing who can give an order to a Kingsguard." "Did you or did you not order Ser Mandon to kill me during the Battle of the Blackwater?" "The impulse I understand." "He hates me because I'm the only one who tells him what he really is." "So, fair enough." "He wants me dead." "But his stupidity?" "He could have had me poisoned and no one would have known." "But the king orders a Kingsguard to murder the Hand of the King in full view of his own army." "The boy's an idiot." "What do you want me to say?" "I want you to tell me if my life is still in danger." "Probably." "But not from Joffrey." "He won't do anything now Father's here." "Seven kingdoms united in fear of Tywin Lannister." "Not the Tyrells." "Soon they won't need to be afraid of him." "Joffrey will belong to Margaery, the little doe-eyed whore." "And so will his children and their children." "History will be taken from our hands." "You may escape, at least." "Once Jaime gets back," "Ser Loras may come down with a terrible case of sword through bowels." "When Jaime gets back, yes." "But when do we think that's going to be?" "He's out there somewhere." "Jaime or not, I'm truly fucked." "Who's going to tell her?" "Do you think people will like it?" "I don't think they will even notice it." "You're right." "It's not my wedding." "Anyway, from what I can tell, the dressmakers in Highgarden will be far superior to the ones in King's Landing." "They'd never make me anything as dull as this for my wedding." "Loras likes green and gold brocade." "I'm sure he does." "Will they let me invite my family?" "They haven't asked my opinion." "But do you think they will?" "No." "Lady Sansa, Lord Tyrion to see you." " Should I" " I beg your pardon, my lady." "Good afternoon, Lord Tyrion." "I was just trying on a gown for King Joffrey's wedding." "Yes, it should be quite a wedding." "I need to speak with you, Lady Sansa." "Of course." "Alone, if I may." "Why do you need to speak to her alone?" "Shae." "Please excuse her, Lord Tyrion." "She's not from here." "But I trust her, even though she tells me not to." "Sometimes we think we want to hear something and it's only afterwards when it's too late that we realize we wished we'd heard it under entirely different circumstances." "It's all right, really." "How to begin?" "It's-- this-- this-- this is awkward." "1,000 blades taken from the hands of Aegon's fallen enemies, forged in the fiery breath of Balerion the Dread." "There aren't 1,000 blades." "There aren't even 200." "I've counted." "Ha, I'm sure you have." "Ugly old thing." "Yet it has a certain appeal." "The Lysa Arryn of chairs." "Shame you had to settle for your second choice." "Early days, my friend." "It is flattering, really... you feeling such dread at the prospect of me getting what I want." "Thwarting you has never been my primary ambition," "I promise you." "Although who doesn't like to see their friends fail now and then?" "You're so right." "For instance, when I thwarted your plan to give Sansa Stark to the Tyrells." "If I'm going to be honest," "I did feel an unmistakable sense of enjoyment there." "But your confidant, the one who fed you information about my plans, the one you swore to protect... you didn't bring her any enjoyment." "And she didn't bring me any enjoyment." "She was a bad investment on my part." "Luckily, I have a friend who wanted to try something new." "Something daring." "And he was so grateful to me for providing this fresh experience." "I did what I did for the good of the realm." "The realm?" "Do you know what the realm is?" "It's the thousand blades of Aegon's enemies." "A story we agree to tell each other over and over till we forget that it's a lie." "But what do we have left once we abandon the lie?" "Chaos." "A gaping pit waiting to swallow us all." "Chaos isn't a pit." "Chaos is a ladder." "Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again." "The fall breaks them." "And some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse."
