Game of Thrones, Season 8
Jon Snow:
What are you doing in Winterfell? Or did you read every book in the Citadel already? [pause, sees Sam's expression] What's wrong? Gilly? Is she alright?
Samwell Tarly:
She's good.
Jon Snow:
Little Sam?
Samwell Tarly:
Don't you know?
Jon Snow:
Know what?
Samwell Tarly:
Daenerys. She executed my father and brother. They were her prisoners. [pause] She didn't tell you.
Jon Snow:
I'm so sorry. But we need to end this war.
Samwell Tarly:
Would you have done it?
Jon Snow:
I've executed men who've disobeyed me-
Samwell Tarly:
You've also spared men. Thousands of Wildlings, when they refused to kneel!
Jon Snow:
I wasn't a King.
Samwell Tarly:
But you were. You've always been.
Jon Snow:
I gave up my crown, Sam. [starts to leave] I bent the knee, I'm not King in the North anymore.
Samwell Tarly:
I'm not talking about the King in the North, I'm talking about the King of the bloody Seven Kingdoms! [Jon turns back] Bran and I worked it out. I had a High Septon's diary, and Bran had... whatever Bran has.
Jon Snow:
What're you talking about?
Samwell Tarly:
Your mother... was Lyanna Stark. And your father... your real father... was Rhaegar Targaryen. You've never been a bastard. You're Aegon Targaryen, true heir to the Iron Throne. [Jon starts toward him] I'm sorry. I know it's a lot to take in-
Jon Snow:
[angrily] My father was the most honorable man I ever met. You're saying he lied to me, all my life?!
Samwell Tarly:
[shakes his head] Your father- well, Ned Stark- he promised your mother he'd always protect you. And he did, Robert would have murdered you if he knew. You're the true King. Aegon Targaryen, Sixth of his Name, Protector of the Realm, all of it.
Jon Snow:
Daenerys is our Queen-
Samwell Tarly:
She shouldn't be.
Jon Snow:
That's treason.
Samwell Tarly:
It's the truth. You gave up your crown, to save your people. Would she do the same?
