Tyrion Doesn't Need Janos Slynt [HD]

[@fabio11826]

I've always noticed that even though Tyrion knew Ned Stark's arrest benefitted his family, he always recognized the injustice of it and worked in small ways like this to right some of it.

[@abduljah9355]

That's true. He is also cognizant of the fact that a corrupt City Watch is bad for him -- they're the defense of the city and he needs them to be organized and disciplined. If he had left Janos and his corrupt lackeys in charge, the watch probably would have scattered in disarray when Stannis attacked at the end of the season.

[@legrandliseurtri7495]

He also do it out of self-preservation. He wants his man, not Cersei's man. Bronn can be as cruel, but he's on his side so he's better(however, in the books Tyrion puts someone recommanded *by Varys* as a relatively honorable person)

[@isaactheworshipwarrior6687]

That's why I love this scene so much. I would never trust a man who betrayed the last hand to work alongside me either. But in a way Tyrion does care for the Starks, and he identifies that arresting him was for protection but he also knows that It was an act of betrayal. It's like Ned said, "I cant restore your dead to life, but perhaps I can give you justice." Which in comparison, this justice isn't much, but it WAS something.

A bunch of toughs in shiny armor laying down the law with brutal efficiency. Thieves? Cut em down. Murderers? Hang em high. Rapists? Off with their heads. Bronn probably had fleabottom whipped up in a frenzy because he's a slimy guy who knows where slimy business takes place so now, in a place of power, he can cut it out root and stem. Like that business with him rounding up all the known thieves and disposing of them. That was probably the most law abiding period of King's Landing's history Lmao

Hesitantly, Lord Janos drew out the ornament and handed it to Tyrion. “We have goldsmiths in Lannisport who do better work,” he opined. “The red enamel blood is a shade much, if you don’t mind my saying. Tell me, my lord, did you drive the spear into the man’s back yourself, or did you only give the command?” “I gave the command, and I’d give it again. Lord Stark was a traitor.” The bald spot in the middle of Slynt’s head was beet-red, and his cloth-of-gold cape had slithered off his shoulders onto the floor. “The man tried to buy me.” “Little dreaming that you had already been sold.” Slynt slammed down his wine cup. “Are you drunk? If you think I will sit here and have my honor questioned . . .” “What honor is that? I do admit, you made a better bargain than Ser Jacelyn. A lordship and a castle for a spear thrust in the back, and you didn’t even need to thrust the spear.” He tossed the golden ornament back to Janos Slynt. It bounced off his chest and clattered to the floor as the man rose. “I mislike the tone of your voice, my lo-Imp. I am the Lord of Harrenhal and a member of the king’s council, who are you to chastise me like this?” Tyrion cocked his head sideways. “I think you know quite well who I am. How many sons do you have?” “What are my sons to you, dwarf?” “Dwarf?” His anger flashed. “You should have stopped at Imp. I am Tyrion of House Lannister, and someday, if you have the sense the gods gave a sea slug, you will drop to your knees in thanks that it was me you had to deal with, and not my lord father. Now, how many sons do you have?” Tyrion could see the sudden fear in Janos Slynt’s eyes. “Th-three, m’lord. And a daughter. Please, m’lord-” “You need not beg.” He slid off his chair. “You have my word, no harm will come to them. The younger boys will be fostered out as squires. If they serve well and loyally, they may be knights in time. Let it never be said that House Lannister does not reward those who serve it. Your eldest son will inherit the title Lord Slynt, and this appalling sigil of yours.” He kicked at the little golden spear and sent it skittering across the floor. “Lands will be found for him, and he can build a seat for himself. It will not be Harrenhal, but it will be sufficient. It will be up to him to make a marriage for the girl.” Janos Slynt’s face had gone from red to white. “Wh-what . . . what do you . . . ?” His jowls were quivering like mounds of suet. “What do I mean to do with you?” Tyrion let the oaf tremble for a moment before he answered. “The carrack Summer’s Dream sails on the morning tide. Her master tells me she will call at Gulltown, the Three Sisters, the isle of Skagos, and Eastwatch-by-the-Sea. When you see Lord Commander Mormont, give him my fond regards, and tell him that I have not forgotten the needs of the Night’s Watch. I wish you long life and good service, my lord.”

What's really great about this scene (and Dinklage's acting) is you can tell the way Tyrion is talking to Slynt is actually really condescending in a way, he doesn't talk to Slynt like he talks to Varys, or say Littlefinger, but rather like one might talk to a child because he knows Slynt is not a good player of a game, but a pawn, and so doesn't command the same respect would give other players.

I think the did a really good job with this scene, but they omitted two of the best parts: First, Janos Slynt is low born and doesn't know wine at all. As Tyrion notices, the man takes big gulps of fancy wine and doesn't seem to believe in sipping. Which I found so funny (plus the actor they picked is perfect for the role). Second, during the supper, Slynt brings him a list of six men to replace him as head of the city watch. He strongly suggests Allar Deem (which is the one who kills the baby in the brothel), because he does what is asked without ever questioning it. Once Slynt is taken away by the guards, Tyrioñ is like: "It's a long voyage, and Lord Slynt will want for company. See that these six join him on the Summer's Dream (the ship)." "There's one," Tyrion said quietly. "Deem, tell the captain it not be taken amiss if that one should happen to be swept overboard before they reach Eastwatch" "- I'm told those northern waters are very stormy, my lord". Such a good dialogue.

I find it telling how eagerly the guards took Janos away. You'd think if Janos was the kind of commander who inspired loyalty, it would be difficult to get his men to arrest him even with orders from their new boss. What I'm saying is i imagine Janos likely wasn't very popular among his men

[@codysellers4151]

from what I can remember one of the guard's was hesitant to kill one of the babies in Cersi's ordered Purge, Janos ended up doing it himself. Im not claiming that the guards of the watch were beacons of morality, but not a lot of people are fans of infanticide. The guards were probably happy to be rid of him after that.

[@SnapOoooThereItIs]

when it comes to soldiers, or combatant types of that era, id say the price of respect can come down to three things: loyalty, morality and strength. janos' loyalty could be shifted by any price, making every word of honor or dignity that comes out of his mouth meaningless. he has proven himself to have no moral fiber given, without hesitation, he stabbed to death an infant in its mothers arms. and all his strengths were reliant solely on the intervention of others, which granted him no true fear or intimidation. when you sully one of those three things, people might question your capabilities. you sully two, most people may consider themselves above you. this guy sullied all of them. theres no comparison, hes just fucking degenerate. bronn lacks morals, but he could probably kill all of them if he wanted. and at least his loyalties are to someone with some semblance of a conscious. considerably better.

I actually was reading the books recently, and I think I like how Martin wrote this scene better than the TV writers did, but you can't just introduce new characters like he did in a TV show. Basically they dumbed it down for the TV audience but what can you do. In the book there was actually a purpose for the dinner, he basically got all the people that Janos had recommended (bad men) and dismissed them to the wall too. The TV show scene seems a bit rushed to me and now that I rewatched it I see that actually. Plus when I read the book I felt bad for Janos. In the show he is just shown as a jerk, but in the book it mentions how he has a family, and points out just how stupid he really is. So it's less that he is a jerk, more of an idiot that bit off more than he could chew.

I don't think it's dumbed down, I think it's more streamlined. Inserting a one-scene-wonder character in a TV show would cost much more than in a book.

The only time we see Petyr angry is when Tyrion fools him with his marriage ploy. It seems that he doesn't like being taken by surprise. Varys says of Ser Mandon " _Lord Arryn brought him to King’s Landing and Robert gave him his white cloak, but neither loved him much, I fear_ ." Jon Arryn brought Littlefinger to King's Landing at the behest of Lysa. Considering Lord Arryn's opinion of Ser Mandon, I don't think it's a stretch to say Moore was selected by Littlefinger via Lysa.

''I'm not questioning your loyalty Lord Janos...I'm denying it's existence.'' Will never get sick of that line :)

1:52 "😠😡If you think I'll stand and take this from you, Dwarf!" "🙄😒Dwarf?? *scoff* 😈You should've stopped at Imp, 😠👿and yes, *you will* stand here and take it from me, unless you'd rather take it from my friend here."

“Eastwatch by The Sea”. Such a satisfying phrase.

Like "Martha's Vineyard", but with ice zombies.

What I like about the synergy between Bronn and Tyrion is at the root of it they are the same. They realize what they are, what they are capable of and their limits. Tyrion knows he can play the game but he needs muscle to back his word, thus Bronn. Without him most would just see Tyrion as 'The Imp', a man that can be rolled over and mocked and pushed off to the side. It seems to reason at least a few figures throughout the series however have heard that Bronn has bested knights before. He's not a man to be fucked with. He gives stilts to the half man when he is hand of the king. Bronn knows he's a fucking nobody without Tyrion's money but he also knows he has limits in his pull in the game. He doesn't go to bat for Tyrion when he goes to trial. Tyrion doesn't really even mind. If anything he respects that he's found his way into higher society and kind've wishes him well even if it means his doom. He went along with all his wild schemes and bullshit because for all his claims and half-cocked ideas, Tyrion was the biggest man in the room mentally in many cases. He saw the long horse in the race and wasn't afraid to the be the jockey.
