Kit Harington: Jon Snow

Quotes 

• Jon Snow : Lord Janos, I'm giving you command of Greyguard.

  Janos Slynt : Greyguard is a ruin.

  Jon Snow : Yes, the Fort is in a sorry state, restore it as best you can. First Builder Yarwick can spare 10...

  Janos Slynt : [interrupting]  I was charged with the defence of King's Landing when you were still soiling your swaddling clothes. Keep your ruin!

  [other Night's Watch members jeer at Janos] 

  Samwell Tarly : Alright, alright! That's enough of that!

  [jeering stops] 

  Jon Snow : You mistake me, my lord. That was a command, not an offer. Pack your arms and armour, say your farewells, and ride for Greyguard.

  Janos Slynt : [stands, scowling]  I will not go off to meekly freeze and die. Give it to one of the fools who cast a stone for you! I will not have it! Do you hear me, boy? I will not have it!

  Jon Snow : Are you refusing to obey my order?

  [long, tense silence] 

  Janos Slynt : You can take your order, and stick it up your bastard ass!

  [shocked murmurs from the Night's Watch] 

  Jon Snow : [coldly]  Take Lord Janos outside. Olly, bring me my sword.

  [the Night's Watch begin filing out of the mess hall into the courtyard. Two men grab Slynt and drag him outside] 

  Janos Slynt : [struggling to escape]  You cannot do this! Get your hands off me! Stop, all of you! If the boy thinks he can frighten me, he's mistaken, yes, very mistaken! Disgrace! I have friends in the Capital, you'll see!

  [Slynt is forced to kneel onto a chopping block. Jon steps onto the gallows, and unsheathes Longclaw] 

  Jon Snow : If you have any last words, my lord, now's the time.

  Janos Slynt : [terrified]  I was wrong! You're the Lord Commander, we all serve you! I'm sorry, not only for this, but for all I've done and said! I was wrong!

  [Jon raises Longclaw to behead Slynt] 

  Janos Slynt : My lord, please! Mercy, mercy!

  [Jon hesitates] 

  Janos Slynt : I'll go, I will!

  [Slynt starts weeping] 

  Janos Slynt : Please, I'm afraid! I've always been afraid!

  [Slynt breaks down sobbing. Jon glares angrily, then beheads Slynt] 

• Stannis Baratheon : You have many enemies in Castle Black. Have you considered sending Alliser Thorne elsewhere? Give him command of Eastwatch-by-the-Sea.

  Jon Snow : I heard it was best to keep your enemies close.

  Stannis Baratheon : Whoever said that didn't have many enemies.
