"Game of Thrones" The House of Black and White (TV Episode 2015) - John Bradley as Samwell Tarly

Samwell Tarly : Whilst Lord Janos was hiding with the women and children, Jon Snow was leading. Ser Alliser fought bravely, this true. When he was wounded, it was Jon who saved us. He took charge of the Wall's defense, he killed the Magnar of Thenns, he went north to deal with Mance Rayder, knowing it would've almost certainly meant his own death. Before that, he lead the mission to avenge Lord Commander Mormont. Mormont, himself, chose Jon to be his steward. He saw something in Jon and now we've all seen it to. He may be young, but he's the commander we turned to when the night was darkest.

Shireen Baratheon : Come on, you know this one.

Gilly : [looking at the letter S] It looks like an animal. Snake... Ssssnake. S. It's an S.

Shireen Baratheon : Right, very good.

Samwell Tarly : [reads a book] Did you know that the youngest Lord Commander in history, Osric Stark, was elected at the age of 10?

Gilly : I know "S".

Shireen Baratheon : You'll learn, I promise. I taught Ser Davos, and old people are terrible at learning new things.

Gilly : Well, you're a wonderful teacher.

[Gilly looks at Sam]

Gilly : Very patient.

Samwell Tarly : I only said that the more time that you spend practicing, the faster you'll be able to read.

Gilly : That's all right. We're doing just fine. I'm sure you and... Ostrich Stark have a lot to talk about.
