* [[Single Target Sexuality]]: He tells Catelyn Stark that he has only ever been with Cersei and no-one else. Before using that little fact to point out her husband Ned did not show her any such loyalty when he fathered a bastard.

* [[Troll]]: With Brienne. It's amazing that she hasn't strangled him yet. Probably because she swore to get him to King's Landing safely (for a given value of safe) but ''still'', Jaime cannot ''shut up''.

* [[Licked By the Dog]]: His nephew and niece clearly loving him is our first clue that he is a rare decent Lannister, and he is shown to adore them in return.

* [[My Country Right or Wrong|My Family Right or Wrong]]: "My dear brother, you wound me. You know how much I love my family." Of course, while he's being entirely sarcastic when he says it, he does tend go along with what's expected of him in the end -- if not exactly in a manner the rest of his family approves of.

* [[Shout Out]]: When Jaime is trying to locate Alton in the family tree he asks if his mother is "the fat one", only to correct himself by saying "No, there is only ''one'' fat Lannister. If she was your mother you would know it." The book counterpart to Alton, Cleos Frey, is the son of Genna Lannister, an aunt of Jaime that is notoriously obese.

* [[Tranquil Fury]]: A particularly brutal example. Sandor rarely shows any emotion while slaughtering people. When he {{spoiler|rescues Sansa from would-be rapists}} he does so with a grim, emotionless expression while ruthlessly gutting the criminals.

* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?|Why Did It Have To Be Fire?]] Due to how he got his own burns, he is uncharacteristically unnerved by the sight of wildfire during "Blackwater". Visibly shaken he then threatens the man leading the fire arrow volleys that he'll strangle him with ''his own entrails'' should any land near him. The final straw however is when he sees a man burning alive charging toward him. It causes him to freeze up, quit from the battlefield and [[I Need a Freaking Drink|demand a strong drink]].
