00:01Gods, boy, that's enough. We're not in a tavern.

00:03Pardon, my lady.

00:04No need to speak. Are there any figs? Fetch some.

00:07I always take figs mid-afternoon. They help move the bowels.

00:11To what do I owe this summons?

00:13Thank you for seeing me, my lady.

00:15I had hoped we might discuss a few financial matters.

00:17I climbed all those steps to discuss financial matters.

00:21It's the royal wedding. I'm told you had a hand in planning it.

00:24Naturally.

00:25It's shaping up to be a very involved affair.

00:27The word extravagant has been used.

00:29What good is the word extravagant if it can't be used to describe a royal wedding?

00:33I understand that.

00:34Good.

00:35But as master of coin, it falls upon me to calculate the cost for the crown.

00:39As of now, it's a huge expense.

00:42And?

00:43And... we're at war, Lady Olenna.

00:47Oh. I nearly forgotten.

00:49Yes, and maintaining supply lines...

00:50I can't think how it slipped my mind.

00:52What is it? 12,000 infantrymen the Tyrell family has supplied?

00:571,800 mounted lancers.

00:592,000 in support.

01:01Provisions so this city might survive the winter.

01:04A million bushels of wheat.

01:06Half a million bushels each of barley, oats, and rye.

01:0920,000 head of cattle.

01:1150,000 sheep.

01:12You don't have to lecture me about wartime expenses.

01:15I'm quite familiar with them.

01:17And we are so grateful for your contributions which are necessary for the preservation of the realm.

01:21As is a royal wedding.

01:23The people are hungry for more than just food.

01:26They crave distractions.

01:28And if we don't provide them, they'll create their own.

01:31And their distractions are likely to end with us being torn to pieces.

01:36A royal wedding is much safer, wouldn't you say?

01:39I would.

01:41And traditionally paid for by the royal family.

01:47I was told you were drunk, impertinent, and thoroughly divorced.

01:51You can imagine my disappointment at finding nothing but a browbeaten bookkeeper.

01:58Where did you go for them, Volantis?

02:00My lady.

02:02Oh, very well.

02:03I won't have it said the House Tyrell refuses to play its part.

02:07We'll pay for half the expenses and the celebrations will go on as planned.

02:11Is that sufficient?

02:12Quite sufficient.

02:14Very good then.

02:15That's settled.

02:16Good day.

02:19Give me that.
