MEEREEN GREAT PYRAMID - COUNCIL CHAMBER

TYRION, MISSANDEI, and GREY WORM are sitting together around a table. TYRION smiles at MISSANDEI, and MISSANDEI smiles back. TYRION smiles at GREY WORM, and GREY WORM remains expressionless.

TYRION: What should we do while we wait? To pass the time, what should we do? What should we talk about?

MISSANDEI and GREY WORM look at each other, then at TYRION.

"Wow these two are really great conversationist" Tyrion mumbles

"Just because you like to hear yourself talk doesn't mean everyone does so" Daenerys said

"I understand princess but if we are to work together we need to know each other and to know each other is to talk" Tyrion replied

TYRION (to MISSANDEI): You speak 19 languages. You must occasionally use some of them to talk about things.

MISSANDEI says nothing.

TYRION: You two, you spend a great deal of time together. What would you be talking about if I weren't here?

GREY WORM: Patrol. When I am going on patrol with the Unsullied. What we see on patrol. Who we captured on patrol.

TYRION: That's good. That's very good.

TYRION stands and carries his wine glass over to the decanter to refill it.

TYRION: But that's a report. I was thinking more of a conversation. A wise man once said the truth history of the world is the history of great conversation in elegant rooms.

"Who said this?" Shireen asked and looked around but no one had the answer so she turned towards Tyrion

The former imp in question smiled and pointed at himself and said, "Me!"

MISSANDEI: Who said this?

TYRION: Me. Just now. All right, no conversations. Let's play a game.

Jamie chuckled at the mirror response between the two Tyrion's

Shireen also had a small smile.

TYRION returns to the table. GREY WORM and MISSANDEI say nothing.

TYRION: You don't play games, either one of you, ever?

GREY WORM: Games are for children.

MISSANDEI: My master Kraznys would sometimes make us play games.

TYRION: There, that's a start.

MISSANDEI: Only the girls.

TYRION: Oh no, no, no. Not that, of course not that. Innocent games, fun games, drinking games.

MISSANDEI: We do not drink.

TYRION: Until you do.

GREY WORM and MISSANDEI look interrogatively at TYRION.

"Must be really hard for you that your charm is not working on them" Joanna said

"Eh! I am more surprised that they have never drink and don't want to even now." Tyrion points out

TYRION: Alright. No drinking. We can play without drinking. It's a wonderful game. I invented it. Here's how it works. I make a statement about your past. If I'm wrong, I drink. And if I'm right -- Maybe we can't play without drinking.

VARYS enters the room.

TYRION: Oh, you took your time.

VARYS: Sorry. I was busy learning who funds the Sons of the Harpy. Some things you can't rush.

MISSANDEI: You found out?

VARYS: The good masters of Astapor. And the wise masters of Yunkai. With help from their friends in Volantis.

TYRION: You see? You don't even have to worry about the local rebellion. We only have to worry about the three rich foreign cities paying for it.

"Say whatever you want to about him but at the very least, Varys is a good spymaster" Oberyn said

"His extensive reach that extends even in Essos is remarkable" Doran said

"Maybe he would be useful if Aemon doesn't kill him" Elia said

"You think he will?" Oberyn asked

"He isn't the type to lie and growing up under Lord Stark means that he hates cruelty and injustice, so if Aemon finds anything about him in those lines than he will definitely kill him." Rhaegar stated.

GREY WORM: We conquered Asatapor and Yunkai once. We will do it again and execute the Masters.

TYRION: If the Unsullied march off to reconquer Asatapor and Yunkai, who remain to defend the free people of Meereen?

GREY WORM: If we do not fight them, how can we stop them?

MISSANDEI: We cannot. The Masters only speak one language. They spoke it to me for many years. I know it better than my mother tongue. If we want them to hear us, we must speak it back to them. May it be the last thing they ever hear.

TYRION nods.

TYRION: You may be right.

GREY WORM: So we will fight them?

TYRION: Possibly.

MISSANDEI: Possibly?

TYRION: It's a conversation.

"You want to negotiate with those slavers?" Myrcella asked

"If what Daenerys wants is the end of slavery and it can be achieved through words it's my duty to try it, after all she only has so many soldiers she could use and each and everyone of them will be very important for her if she wants to return to westeros and conquer it." Tyrion explained to Myrcella

Daenerys who was listening to their conversation also understood that.

TYRION turns to VARYS.

TYRION: Tell me, can the little birds get a message to the good Masters of Astapor, the wise Masters of Yunkai, the benevolent enslavers of Volantis?

VARYS: Of course. Man can be fickle, but birds always trust.

RED KEEP - VAULTS

A group of Varys' child spies are gathered together. One LITTLE BIRD picks up a model of a planet. Another child plays with an hourglass.

"Looks like you are going to lose your little birds Lord Varys" Mya Stone said

"It seems so, I didn't think that someone would try to use my little birds after I left them" Varys nodded gravely

QYBURN: Your eye looks much better, Arthur. How's your mother's jaw?

ARTHUR: Better.

QYBURN: And your father?

ARTHUR: No one's seen him.

QYBURN: And no one will. That worked out rather nicely.

"This guy is good, he healed the kid and his mother than took care of his abusive father gaining not only the kids but even his friends loyalty" Robb said

"He is much smarter than many Maester's that much is already proven seeing as he was able to save Gregor Clegane" Bran said

LITTLE BIRD: Will Lord Varys ever come back?

QYBURN: I don't think so. Do you miss him?

LITTLE BIRD: He was nice.

ARTHUR: He called us his little birds. He gave us sweets.

QYBURN stands up and walks to a table.

QYBURN: It's funny you should mention that. Guess what I happened to find today. Candied plums from Dorne.

He nods at the boxes. Eeach child picks one. They nibble at the plums.

QYBURN: Now remember, if any of your friends like sweets or need help, they can always come to me. All I need in return are whispers.

"Well they have their tounges meaning that Varys didn't remove than as you thought" Robb said

"I can see but I still can't trust this guy since I don't know where his real loyalty lies" Aemon said

"Then don't it's not like you need him as your spy" Robb said

"True"

The door opens. GREGOR walks in, followed by JAIME and CERSEI.

QYBURN: No need to be afraid. This is Ser Gregor. He's friends with all my friends.

GREGOR looks at the children. They stare at him, motionless.

QYBURN: Run along now.

The children run up the stairs.

CERSEI: Varys's little birds?

QYBURN: Your little birds now, your Grace.

JAIME is admiring GREGOR.

JAIME: What did you do to him exactly? I haven't been able to get a clear answer.

QYBURN: Oh, a number of things.

JAIME: Does he understand what we're saying? I mean, to the extent that he ever understood complete sentences in the first place.

GREGOR turns his head to JAIME. JAIME recoils.

QYBURNS: He understands well enough.

JAIME: So tell him to march into the sept and crush the High Sparrow's head like a melon.

"Why does your brain only thinks of violance? Didn't you learn any of the subtlety needed in the court?" Joanna asked to which Jamie only shrugged his shoulders not caring in the slightest.

CERSEI: The High Sparrow has hundreds of Faith Militant surrounding him. Ser Gregor will can't face them all. And he won't have to. He'll only have to face one.

JAIME: Has the Faith leveled official charges yet?

CERSEI: Not yet.

JAIME: That is one trial by combat I look forward to watching.

CERSEI (to QYBURN): Don't stop at the city. I want little birds in Dorne, in Highgarden, in the North. If someone is planning on making our losses their gains I want to hear it. If someone is laughing at the queen who walk naked through the streets covered in shit, I want to hear. I want to know who they are. I want to where they are.

QYBURN bows his head to CERSEI.
