Daniel Portman: Podrick Payne

Quotes 

• [Jaime and Tyrion are eating dinner together; Jaime hasn't touched his food] 

  Tyrion Lannister : Your new hand is nicer than the old one. Wouldn't you agree, Pod?

  Podrick Payne : Is it solid gold?

  Tyrion Lannister : Gilded steel. Not eating. Why is no one eating? My wife wastes away, my brother starves himself...

  Jaime Lannister : I'm not hungry.

  Tyrion Lannister : You lost a hand, not a stomach. Try the boar. Cersei can't get enough since one killed Robert for her.

  [Pod steps forward with a sausage on a fork, but Jaime waves it away. Tyrion picks up his cup of wine] 

  Tyrion Lannister : A toast. To the proud Lannister children: the dwarf, the cripple, and the mother of madness.

  [Jaime reaches for his cup, but he accidentally knocks it over with his new hand] 

  Podrick Payne : I'll clean it up...

  Jaime Lannister : No, I'll do it. Leave us.

  [Pod leaves; Tyrion spills his wine onto the table] 

  Tyrion Lannister : It's only wine.

  [pause] 

  Jaime Lannister : [quietly]  I can't fight anymore.

  Tyrion Lannister : What about your left?

  Jaime Lannister : I can hold a sword, but all my instincts are wrong. How can I protect the king when I can hardly wipe my own arse?

  Tyrion Lannister : You're the Lord Commander now. Command. Let others do the fighting. When was the last time Father used a sword?

  Jaime Lannister : I'm not Father, I'm the Kingslayer. When people find out I can't slay a pigeon...

  Tyrion Lannister : Train, then. Learn to fight with your other hand.

  Jaime Lannister : With whom? You? Men talk. As soon as someone discovers I can't fight, he'll tell everyone.

  [Tyrion considers that for a moment] 

  Tyrion Lannister : You need a proper, discreet swordsman. As it happens, I have just the one.
