Game of Thrones, Season 2

Davos Seaworth:
I understand why the older families look down at me.

Stannis Baratheon:
Do you? Why?

Davos Seaworth:
My father was a crabber.

Stannis Baratheon:
And?

Davos Seaworth:
Sons of lords don't like to break bread with sons of crabbers; our hands stink.

Stannis Baratheon:
And where were those lords when Storm's End starved?!

Davos Seaworth:
Many fought bravely for your brother. Many fought for the Mad King.

Stannis Baratheon:
You defend these men who insult you behind your back.

Davos Seaworth:
Some are happy to do it to my face.

Stannis Baratheon:
[angry] We were forgotten. Robert and Ned Stark, they were the heroes, the glorious rebels. Marching from battle to battle, liberating towns from the yoke of the Mad King while I held Storm's End with 500 men.

Davos Seaworth:
No one's forgotten, your Grace.

Stannis Baratheon:
No? Robert did. He gave Storm's End to Renly after the war. Renly never fought a day in his life!

Davos Seaworth:
He was only a boy.

Stannis Baratheon:
Then why give him Storm's End? [pause] First, we ate the horses. We weren't riding anywhere, not with the castle surrounded. We couldn't feed them, so fine. The horses, then the cats-I've never liked cats, so fine. I do like dogs - good animals, loyal - but we ate them too. Then the rats... The night before you slipped through, I thought my wife was dying. She couldn't speak anymore, she was so frail. And then you made it through the lines, slipped right through in your little black sail boat with your onions...

Davos Seaworth:
And some potatoes. Some salted beef, I believe.

Stannis Baratheon:
Every man at Storm's End wanted to kiss you that night.

Davos Seaworth:
[smiles] I was relieved they did not.

Stannis Baratheon:
Robert told me to hold Storm's End, so I held it. Then he told me he was giving it to Renly, so I gave it up. Insult or no, I gave it up because Robert was my older brother and he was the king and I've always done my duty. But now, I am the rightful king by every law of Westeros. And when I sit the Iron Throne, you will be my Hand.

Davos Seaworth:
Your Grace...[he kneels] I pray I serve you well.

Stannis Baratheon:
I expect you'll be the first crabber's son to wear the badge.
