Abe: Hi, I'd like to hire an assassin.

JH: A man understands.

Abe: What?

JH: A man needs a name.

Abe: Which man?

JH: A man is wanting a death, a man needs a name.

Abe: Which man is wanting what? Hang on, I'm supposed to...okay, let's start again.

JH: A man agrees.

Abe: Which man are you talking about? Is this your boss or something?

JH: A man is asked for death, a man gives death.

Abe: Ok...so this other man is the actual assassin, and you're like an intermediary?

JH: A man is many things.

Abe: Which man? What things?Is it supposed to be this difficult? Is there someone else I should be talking to?

JH: A man needs to know who needs death.

Abe: Eh...okay, I want my boss killed.

JH: A man needs a name.

Abe: You're not kidding me. I thought you were just being all mysterious to add to your boss' aura.

JH: A man does not understand.

Abe: Well, tell him from me that I'm fucking confused myself. I thought you people were supposed to do this kind of thing all the time. I brought money.

JH: A man needs the name of the man's boss.

Abe: Your boss? Wait, do you mean my boss or your boss?

JH: A man has a boss.

Abe: Look, this is getting a little fucking obscure, mate.

JH: A man needs clarification.

Abe: Wait....do you mean YOU!?!? You've been talking about yourself this whole fucking time?!?!? All this "a man shit" has been you referring to yourself in third person?

JH: A man understands.

Abe: Not really, pal. Why don't you talk right? I've just come here to hire an assassin to kill my boss. Isn't that what you people do?

JH: A man needs a name.

Abe: A man needs a fucking predicate. Is this some kind of set-up? Are you trying to get me on tape or something?

JH: A man is confused.

Abe: A man is damned confusing. See, how do you like it? What if everyone walked around talking like you? Are you afraid of being subject specific? Don't you waste a lot of time having pointless conversations about 'a man' when you could be earning coin killing people? Or is this how you kill them, by making their heads explode trying to understand what the fuck you're talking about?

JH: A man needs to calm down.

Abe: A man needs a fucking drink. A man is out of here, and I'm fucking going with him. Holy crap, can someone point me to an ordinary fucking assassin around here? I was willing to let the 2-tone hair go, but this guy's too much. I don't even want to imagine how long settling on a fucking price would take. Maybe they just talk to you until the victim dies of old age, and then collect? A man is a fucking con artist. Shit, now he's got me talking like this.

JH: A man is next.

Ben: What?

Hi, Jaqen. Can you kill Daenarys Targaryen please? How much would it cost me?

[Apple Martini]

A woman had a chuckle.

[Dracarya]

A girl laughed out loud. A girl was impressed.

[Jon Flowers]

A man has a predicate.  A man needs a proper noun.

[Jon Flowers]

Very funny though.

Yeah, but that was the line that popped in my head while I was watching the scene, so the rest just kinda came out around it; had to keep it.

Awesome. Have you ever actually watched that? It's a lot funnier than people think it is, just based on the idea. At least it was for me...went years thinking I knew it, then actually watched it and it was hilarious. Kinda like if you watch old Cosby stand-up; you think you have him pegged because of clips from the show, but his actual stand-up stuff kills.

A woman was entertained. A man must pen a sequel.

A man is making his second post. A man is proud

A man is curious: What's this "a man is on first" business?

A man provides a link.

A man provides a video of said performance

A man is now two links closer to becoming a maester.

A man is grateful, since a man comes from a land, far away, where Abbot & Castello are just "some old-timey american comedy duo" and has never seen their work. A man is happy he did.

ETA: Oh, a man spots clever link joke and is reminded of the Alchemist. Funny.
