“Game of Thrones” star John Bradley is the focus of what has become the breakout moment from the show’s Season 7 premiere, a montage showing the daily life of his character, Samwell Tarly, as he trains to become a Maester.
It’s a fantastic sequence, but the catch? Samwell has perhaps the worst job ever, mainly because of how much human poop he’s required to deal with. The montage shows Sam lugging heavy books around the stacks in the Maesters’ library (but forbidden from reading the ones that he needs), emptying chamber pots and cleaning out the communal toilets, serving other maesters food that looks suspiciously like the stuff in the chamber pots and communal toilets … rinse and repeat.
