As Toby leaves, he tells Jed, "Your favourite movie was on TV last night." Jed recites: "'By God, I'm fifty, alive, and a king, all at the same time.'" He's referring to The Lion in Winter. Toby says he turned it on just as they got to the scene when Richard, Geoffrey, and John are locked in the dungeon and Henry is coming down to execute them. (...)

Toby continues, "Richard tells his brothers not to cower, but to take it like men, and Geoffrey says, 'You fool! As if it matters how a man falls down!' And Richard says..." And here Jed starts quoting the line along with Toby, "'When the fall is all that's left...'" And then Toby stops speaking and Jed finishes, "'It matters a great deal.'" Toby repeats, "'It matters a great deal.'"

from the recap of H. Con-172 (S3E11)
