Game of Thrones, Season 4

Tycho Nestoris:
I'm afraid we must respectfully decline your request. But we thank you for paying us the honor of your visit.

Davos Seaworth:
My lord.

Tycho Nestoris:
I'm not a lord, Ser Davos Seaworth. You would not be either here. In Braavos, thieves are not rewarded with titles.

Davos Seaworth:
Well, strictly speaking, I didn't do the thieving. That would be the pirates. I just moved what they stole from one place to another. [shows his mutilated hand] This is the payment that was demanded by King Stannis for my crimes. I consider it an honest accounting. He's an honest man and he's your best chance to get back the money you've sunk into Westeros. Which is a lot, I imagine. Wars are expensive.

Tycho Nestoris:
The war is over.

Davos Seaworth:
As long as Stannis lives, the war is not over. Who's the real power in King's Landing?

Tycho Nestoris:
Ser Davos...

Davos Seaworth:
Humor me.

Tycho Nestoris:
Tywin Lannister.

Davos Seaworth:
How old is Tywin Lannister?

Tycho Nestoris:
67.

Davos Seaworth:
67. And when he dies, who's in command? A half-grown boy, the product of incest? Cersei Lannister, a queen whose people despise her? Jaime Lannister, a man best known for killing the king he was sworn to protect? When Tywin's gone, who do you back?

Tycho Nestoris:
That is a problem for another time.

Davos Seaworth:
Begging your pardon, I think it's a problem for now. There's only one reliable leader left in Westeros. [points to Stannis] Stannis. He's got the birthright. He's in his prime. He's a tried and tested battle commander. [shows his hand again] And he doesn't just talk about paying people back, he does it.
