Jon: I'm not asking you to make peace to save your skin. I'm asking you to make peace to save your people.
Tormund: Been practicing that speech, haven't ya?
Jon: A little bit, did I rush it? It felt like I rus--
Tormund: No, it was good, I liked it. The "coward" thing was harsh.
Ramsay looking like he's screaming internally when his father and step mother announce the new baby was so satisfying after he'd just spent five minutes intentionally humiliating and degrading both Sansa and Theon. Then Roose drops the bomb that it's expected to be a boy, threatening Ramsay's position as the only Bolton heir, and you could already see that twisted mind plotting while Sansa smiled satisfyingly.
Well that was certainly a twisted in a Bolton way wholesome story about Roose raping and impregnating Ramsay's mother and having no doubt that he was Roose's son.
Stannis: The Lady Melisandre told me that death marches on the Wall.
Sam: I've seen it, Your Grace.
Stannis: Seen what?
Sam: The army of the dead. And when they come...
Stannis: ...we have to know how to fight them.
Sam: Y'know, I have read about a legendary warrior who fought off an army of the dead with something he called a "smart boom stick". What that is, I have no idea, but maybe I could keep searching.
Stannis: Keep reading, Samwell Tarly.
Every time I reach this point in the show, I'm always reminded of Army of Darkness and have to wonder how well Ashley Joanna Williams would've done with his S-Mart Remington against the White Walkers.
Davos: Your Grace? Wouldn't it be better to wait? When Jon Snow returns with the wildlings, we could have thousands more men.
Stannis: If Jon Snow returns with the wildlings. We can't wait that long. We have the advantage, more men, more horses, all fed and rested. But every day we wait, the odds shift in Bolton's favor. This could turn to winter at any moment. We have to act now. Give the order, we march at sunrise.
All of this barely a minute after Stannis was criticizing his brother for going too far West and losing a battle to Sam's father. His logic wasn't wrong here, but he was so tired of waiting for his chance to prove himself as the true King of Westeros, that he didn't really care about the logic anyway.
Davos: I'll choose a dozen men to stay and guard the queen and the princess.
Stannis: No need, they're coming with us.
Oh, fuck, it's coming. Everyone who's already seen the show knows why Stannis wants his wife and daughter to join.
Tyrion's awe at seeing a dragon for the first time still gets to me; reminds me of Alan and Ellie seeing that Brachiosaur in person in Jurassic Park. I don't know why, but there's something about people reacting to seeing long-extinct and/or mythical creatures for the first time that always gives me chills.
Uh-oh, they missed that obvious leper skulking about before Drogon flew above, and in this universe, touching a leper actually does infect you...fast!
"You're heavier than you look."
"I weigh 92 pounds, you dick!"
Again, every time I hear Jorah say that, I think of yet another movie reference: Bad Santa when Billy Bob Thornton trying to get Tony Cox to drink some more despite being a dwarf who can't drink as much as Thornton's character.
