Recalling Ser Arlan of Pennytree00:00:38

Dunk speaks of his former master, Ser Arlan of Pennytree, highlighting his past achievements in tournaments, such as unhorsing Lord Stokeworth and even Sir Damon Lannister, the 'Grey Lion,' many years ago. This catches the attention of Prince Baelor.

Baelor's Shared Past and Dunk's Mistake00:01:42

Prince Baelor recounts his own joust against Ser Arlan years ago, stating he broke four lances before unhorsing him.

Permission to Joust00:02:30

Despite the gaffe, Prince Baelor recalls Ser Arlan's character and his praise for Baelor's chivalry. Baelor agrees to allow Dunk to enter the lists, stating that he sees no reason to deny him, to Dunk's gratitude.

Inheritance and New Sigil00:03:35

Prince Baelor reminds Dunk that he is not of Ser Arlan's blood and therefore cannot legally inherit his arms. Dunk acknowledges this and states he will find a new sigil of his own. Dunk departs, promising to fight bravely.
