- Tyrion Lannister: It's easy to confuse what is with what ought to be, especially when what is has worked out in your favor.
- Hizdahr zo Loraq: I'm not talking about myself. I'm talking about the necessary conditions for greatness.
- [Daenerys gestures to the fighting arena, where a man has just been beheaded]
- Daenerys Targaryen: *That* is greatness?
- Hizdahr zo Loraq: That is a vital part of the great city of Meereen, which existed long before you or I and will remain standing long after we have returned to the dirt.
- Tyrion Lannister: My father would have liked you.
- Stannis Baratheon: If you had to choose between Rhaenyra and Aegon, who'd you have chosen?
- Shireen Baratheon: I wouldn't have chosen either. It's all the choosing sides that made everything so horrible.
- Stannis Baratheon: Sometimes a person must choose. Sometimes... the world forces his hand. If a man knows what he is and remains true to himself, the choice is no choice at all. He must fulfill his destiny, and become who he is meant to be. However much he may hate it.
- [Melisandre is about to light fire]
- Melisandre: Lord of Light, protect us!
- [Shireen is about to be sacrificed]
- Shireen Baratheon: Please, father, please!
- Melisandre: For the night is dark and full of terrors!
- Ellaria Sand: It's always changing, who we're supposed to love and who we're not. The only thing that stays the same is that we want who we want.
- Ellaria Sand: No wonder you can't stand, you have no spine.
- [Ellaria starts to leave. Doran grabs her wrist]
- Doran Martell: You are mother to four of my nieces, girls I love very much. For their sake, I hope you live a long and happy life. Speak to me that way again and you won't.
- [Myrcella is sitting with Trystane. Jaime appears]
- Jaime Lannister: Princess Myrcella.
- Myrcella Baratheon: Uncle.
- Jaime Lannister: What a lovely dress.
- Myrcella Baratheon: You don't like it?
- [Myrcella shakes her head]
- Jaime Lannister: You must be cold.
- Myrcella Baratheon: Not at all. The Dornish climate agrees with me.
- Hizdahr zo Loraq: You don't approve?
- Tyrion Lannister: There's always been more than enough death in my life. I can do without it in my leisure time.
- Hizdahr zo Loraq: Fair enough.
- [Trant notices a very young girl at the brothel]
- Meryn Trant: Good.
- Meryn Trant: [to the madam] I'll tell you when we're done.
- [Trant leads hapless girl away, then turns back to madam]
- Meryn Trant: You will have another one for me tomorrow?
- [Shireen is brought to the stake]
- Shireen Baratheon: Where's my father? I want to see my father!
- Melisandre: It will all be over soon, Princess.
