We almost had a Cripsy Cole this week DAMMIT!!!
We should have had a crispy Hightower.
Dam quick upload
@@juanitajones6900 Wait till crispy Rhaenyra shows up
@@juanitajones6900 Damn, I like Gwayne 😂😂 any enemy of Cole is a friend of mine!
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
Alicent's, "there is no mistake" is really just a "I'm powerless." She can't actually say that because she hasn't fully come to terms with quite how stuck she is, and "there is no mistake" is basically saying she can change nothing. Mistake or no.
Orrrr she’s in denial and too stubborn to admit her misunderstanding caused a war. Either way, I’d like to see her try. Even though war is inevitable, it would make her redeem herself by trying. She’s already a trash mother so id also like to see her try and be a better mother before they probably die. She thinks she tries to do the right thing all the time yet sleeps with Cole, doesn’t comfort her grieving kids, checks in on her mourning daughter only to make sure her secret is still safe, AND doesn’t admit she admit she made a mistake that led to a war
Or, more simply, it wasn't her mistake because it was ultimately intentional on the part of everyone on the Green side except her.
Also even if there was no misunderstanding there was always plan to usurp the throne without Alicent
@@AK-pw3oqyeah they think by her saying its too late, they can go stop the armies, but its really too personal for the men that are pushing for the war. the new information simply wont stop them. cole and aegon and even aemond (from her perspective) want this war desperately. its not up to her
@@skeeyee1643 Alicent hate is total unnecessary she has no control over anything since start unlike Rhenyra including scene with Viserys. That guy did enough damage to his family dynasty with his weak decision making when he was alive but did some more even when dieing 😂
"Cowabunga it is" is pretty much the Blackwood/Bracken reaction to any conflict in Westeros. Remember the duel when Rhaenyra was doing her husband hunt?
They've been killing each other since before Aegon the Conqueror and they'll be killing each other long after.
@@teksnotdead902 Since the Gardeners had Highgarden and Casterly Rock belonged to the Casterlys
Were they fighting before the incident with the tree? I think in ASOIAF they said Blackwood's tree got poisoned 'a thousand years ago' (and they haven't shut about it since lol).
@@teksnotdead902 They have been killing each other before the ANDALS (probably the only war they fought on the same side). And I think they can't even agree if it was 500 or 1000 years before that. They both date back to the First Men, but the Brakens converted and heavily intermarried with the Andals.

7:07 Seasmoke and Leanor are spirit bonded as dragon and dragon rider. I highly suspect that Seasmoke is acting oddly because Leanor died off screen and he can sense it
I sure hope so, because HBO had put out a video saying Seasmoke became riderless when Laenor left so people were worried they would have him bonding without solving this issue (they deleted the video immediately but there are screenshots of it lmao).
I also think Laenor’s actor was seen on set, so maybe he will not die off-screen. But I’m not sure if it was confirmed to be him.
Laenor didnt die he just went away with his boyfriend. Its more likely he's acting the way he is because he's not been with Laenor for so long
Leanor didn't die offscreen.
Didn't we see him in the season preview?
Either he has died or word of his son dieing has reached him and he is on his way home. I'm pretty sure that was him in the trailer
The old lords on Rhaenyras council aren't the only ones getting frustrated with her, Jace is too. He wants revenge on the people who murdered his little brother so his mom not making ANY decisions at all is really starting to piss him off.
Yeah, he has been staring Rhaenyra for a while now lol
Rhaenyra tells Jace about the prophecy next episode and then Jace calms down probably
It not that Jace wants revenge he understands that rhaneras father never bolstered the allegiant to her family..those allegiance have grown stale...she has no standing army she holds no territories...she's on the weaker end to the claim.
Like seriously. Give them something, now she just looks indecisive
Which is also why Rhaenyra chose Baela to play recon on King's Landing instead of him - she knows good and well the risk of letting an opportunity for short-term vengeance at the first look. Just like Rhaenys said, the hot-blooded taking upon themselves to sate vengeance with punishment, even if baits them into further escalating violence.
And seeing the Battle of the Burning Mill aftermath - a war between two houses with zero dragons involved - to say that taking precaution before a war of this magnitude isn't just prudent; doing so just to "satiate" the restless at the council could be costly in the worst sense.
One very important fact, that people *definitely* overlook - Aegon became King because of Otto and the small council's plans, not because of Alicent's half-overheard prophecy. 👈😉
The entrance of Alys Rivers right when Simon Strong says "by the old gods.." so subtle but so good, they absolutely hit the Harrenhal content out of the park
But the book elitist will say its bad because the show didnt spend an extra $50,000 to the vfx team to make Harrenhal book accurate sized🤣
@@The_Muncher2017the show is boring :(
@@CodLiverOil8 no its great
@@The_Muncher2017 lame one mate 😂
@@CodLiverOil8im guessing your between the ages of 12 and 15?
daemon wanted to be called your grace because he's married to the queen, not because he's "pressing a claim" 😭😭 he should be called your grace, like alicent is.
I swear they never think
Actually as the consort to the Queen he perhaps shouldn't be called your Grace, as it could be seen as minimising Rhaenyra's position. It's why Prince Philip in real life was never referred to as your majesty.
Wasn’t his title prince consort?
He literally is prince consort. The castellan or liege of Harrenhal calling him prince was correct and the normies being confused by Daemon’s request is understandable.
@@sarad2659 Prince phillip was prince consort not king consort, Daemon is king consort.
U are delulu, literally read the scene
Saying “Hey guys remember when I said my husband changed his mind last second, turns out I was mistaken” would change nothing except giving everyone a reason to ignore her for the rest of her life.
lol
"Ahhh, in that case Im abdicating the throne, let's call for our true queen rhaenyra". The worst part is some people really think thats the case lmao
@philipgodsworth4764 bars
I forgot who mentioned it in a episode, but normal ordinary citizens basically never see the royal family. So they basically would have no clue what Rhaenyra would look like, they just know her name and know the Targaryen hair
Brackens and blackwoods aren’t common folk and they were not fighting over blacks vs greens 😂
Also do they not see the sigils? Since when do the small folks have sigils? Since when do the small folks speak in terms of family names like the Brackens and the Blackwoods? What common folks would spontaneously have a whole ass battle that leaves hundreds or thousands dead🤦♂️
@@WarKriegThe small folk do wear the sigils of their lords though as their men, and they do still get sent off to war and suffer the most, so I think the point still stands tbh.
Nor are they extinct... 😁
@@ile.spirkoski they are the cacroches of westeros lol
@@khafaniking1230the small folk only wear the sigils of their lords if they are in their employ. Knights, Men-at-arms and soldiers etc. the common worker or person in their lands wouldn’t tho
I blame the war on Otto Hightower. When he sent Alicent to 'comfort' King Viserys, he was setting this whole thing in motion.
Yep
Nah, if anybody is to be blamed outrightly for the dance it's Viserys. His accumulated failures as a king led to the dance. King's are judged by their legacy, what they leave behind and what he left was the dance. People don't realize it cuz of how much of a good man he is morally but he was such a bad king.
viserys allowed him to be successful lol
Or you can blame viserys too. He didn’t HAVE to marry another woman. Y’all lack critical thinking skills
@@daurydavis3983no, it’s not just Otto. It’s also viserys
As King consort Daemon would not be, in fact, addressed as “prince” but as “your grace”. If someone calls him prince, it implies they don’t consider Rhaenyra as the rightful Queen.
wrong. king consort is your prince not your grace. Nobody called prince phillip your grace
@@afrobuddy4801 That's because the title of King Consort doesn't exist in British monarchy since in theory the title of "King" in any form would end up outranking that of a Queen. Hence Prince Philip was Prince consort instead, whereas the women that marry the King are actually Queen consorts. But still, the show isn't based on real life rules alone. Alicent is also addressed as "your grace" in the show ever since she married Viserys although she's Queen consort/dowager. Laenor was referred as King consort in season 1 and Daemon was also called King consort by Corlys last episode, so the title clearly exists in the show universe
@@silversaturns And yet every character on this show refers to Daemon as Prince and never as "your grace" And as Westeros is basically Britain you don't think perhaps there are parallels with the British monarchy?
@@silversaturnsyea he is king consort (corlys said that)
@@afrobuddy4801 Cersei was called your grace mate.
The war wasn't started over an indecisive king. Viscerys never changed his mind about Rhaenyra being heir. The war wasn't started over a misunderstanding. Otto and members of the council had been plotting in secret for years to put Aegon on the throne. Whether Alicent agreed or not made no difference. However Alicent heard what she wanted to hear and believed it because she truly wanted her son to be king. The misunderstanding of the kings last words only served to ease Alicent's guilt at helping steal Rhaenyra's inheritance. It was Otto and men like Otto who caused the war because they would sooner see the realm burn than have a woman on the throne. Otto also comes from an extremely ambitious house. It's like a family duty to increase hightower status and position. Worst mistake Viscerys made was marrying one of them.
Even if Alicent went against the council when Viserys died, she would've just been imprisoned and forced to go along with it anyway. I'd have a LOT more respect for her, but it was going to happen regardless of whether she wanted it or not.
Precisely
Viserys hould have never married a 14 year old child and forced her to have male heirs just because he had weird dreams. He ruined Alicent's life, his children's lives and ultimately Rhaenyra's. Otto is to blame too for pimping his daughter out to a grandpa.
@@girlboss5172 that’s the whole point right? she HAS to double down now. she makes it clear this ep too. what power does she really have? like rhaenys said, instead of working to empower, she toils in service to men. she wanted to rule by influencing the men around her, but now her dad is gone and her kids aren’t going to listen to her. what can she do now? i feel for her
Biggest villian was Viserys. Dude married second time to have male heirs and then didn't named him as heir beause he was emotionally weak 😂
I think the reason you dont really hear about House Bracken is because game of thrones tv show limited the amount of houses they decided to involve. House Celtigar and House Velaryon for example were involved with stannis alot during the GoT but the show cut them out almost entirely
The worst is what they did to House Manderly and House Glover. Two of the most loyal Houses were potrayed as cowards.
@@anggi8699 don't even get me started on House Umber. Smalljon Umber doesn't die defending his King but rather is directly a traitor to the Starks that hates his dad. Just awful.
@@anggi8699 I mean, in order to perfectly adapt everything, they would've needed at least 20 episodes a season. I don't think people realize that. Even seasons 1 and 2, which are the most loyal seasons to the books, left out almost half of all storylines and characters due to time constraints. That's just the way it is. As George himself said, he wrote his story while having the idea that it would be almost impossible to adapt to screen. They even offered him 3 movies first, instead of a show, and he turned it down ASAP. And also, it didn't help the Manderlys or Glovers when seasons 7 and 8 were shortened by DnD, either.
Yeah Lord Jonos Bracken appears for like 10 seconds in the scene where Robb is declared King in the North.
@@MFBlooshdon’t get me wrong, I expect and understand things have to be cut and shortened to adapt it to screen. However, completely changing a houses identity is too much. Soo much in the show we heard of Northern loyalty, yet only 3 houses (1 of them made up for the show) joined Jon/Sansa for the BotB.
If you watch the after the episode, ryan condol says that “It’s not that Alicent is unwilling to hear Rhaenyra, it’s that she has no power, there’s nothing she can do anymore to stop what’s coming.” It’s out of Alicent’s hands now that the men have gone off to war and are no longer listening to her. But maybe knowing this truth will push her to do something in time.
Yup alicent allowed the men around d her to usurp her something rhaneyse warned her about
Exactly, and it is clear why she said “there is no mistake” she has no power over it, it is too late for righting the wrongs. People are too dumb to comprehend it so they call it bad writing
I mean if you're not a complete moron it's kinda obvious. Then again, they are kinda dull.
@@ToThe-kk1dmit IS bad writing.
@@ToThe-kk1dmyou Blacks fans with your whole "Alicent has no power" bs are annoying and don't know what tf y'all are talking about.
next episode is gonna be an ALL TIMER
It should be, but also it’s directed by Alan Taylor who is a deeply mid director. I’m expecting very uncreative shots.
@@shortdrink873 I was actually pleasantly surprised with his last episode but I agree. Like have Miguel come back just for this episode!
what do you mean is will be the shorted one apparently
@@hockeyfan131993 Greg gave us the most memorable dragon moment last season, disappointed he didn’t come back. I hope Geeta and Clair get a chance to film some action too
fr im so excited
The letter was just: “I am sorry my kid killed your kid, but you know he had it coming, because of the eye thing”. Alicent wants Rhaenyra to bend the knee, she is not looking to end the conflict
“Alicent should have known the song of ice and fire”
Uhhhhhhhhh fuckin how?
I think they forgot that the story only stays between the king and his/her heir. That's why Daemon never knew.
@@smokeem15 that’s kind of a major plot point
The normies gotta be some of the dumbest reactors to this show, but I still enjoy it lol
@@Quzga me too! Sometimes when I watch their star wars reactions, I think how did they forget this or that. Then I laugh at the dumbness. 🤣🤣🤣
Why do people think she'd get recognized in Kingslanding so fast
There's no magazines, paintings, TV, Cellphones.... regular folks in a BIG city wouldnt recognize strangers so easily.
Even in the books, characters forget faces all the time.
It is still extremely dangerous, especially in war. Young Rhaenyra in episode 4 was recognized by set Harwin, who was working in the city’s watch, while dressed up as a boy-quite easily even.
@@vitaaeris true theres a risk, but as populated as the city is, and so much change in the kinngs guard n city watch, its less likely then more.
That's kinda embarrassing tbh. How was she heir for so many years and still can't get recognize in the city she grew up in. damn
Okay but Harwin was already impressed by her since the hunt
Daemon isn’t pressing a claim, he is king consort and should be called your grace
I sometimes wonder if reactors to HOTD even know the universe at all or even pay attention. Alicent was called your grace and she’s a consort. Daemon is already royal in his own right, but now he’s the husband of the queen, so its only obvious he should be called your grace. The show used king consort, but he would be prince consort, most likely. I think he is called that in the book, not sure.
Well even the black counsel refers to him as "prince"
@@raymonddoe1781 they call him prince daemon, but he is also king consort
@@aquele4virou3bruh even rheanyra's council doesn't call him your grace, I mean c'mon, calm down
He isn’t King Consort. He is Prince Consort to Queen Rhaenyra…
Vizzy T did proclaim his daughter to be his heir in front of everybody. They even had a whole ceremony in season 1 where the Lords of the 7 kingdoms came to pledge their loyalty to her.
That was before he had a son. That was before Rheanyra had bastards that she planned to put on the throne after her. He should've done it again, but some thing more meaningful than forcing everyone to serve Rheanyra. Also either disinherit the bastards or come out and say they are bastards then legitimate them. They had years. They could've come up with something clever. These royalties ain't shit.
Some 20 years before the war began. Most of the lords that swore their loyalty have since died and their sons have succeeded them. Viserys never had them swear those same vows. As we saw with Borros Baratheon
@@rexibhazoboa7097they’re still children of the monarch & if that was the only issue then Otto and the gang could’ve made her claim one of her & daemon’s kids as heir instead of Jace.
It us honorable to stay true to your father's oath. It is dishonorable to reneg on the weird of your house after it was given.@jackcrofts-mullin461
@@rexibhazoboa7097 Rhaenyra's children are legitimate, declared by Rhaenyra herself, Laenor and the King, no one can disagree. Also, all her children are dragon riders... so obviously they are Valyrian. So in this particular case even being a bastard shouldn't matter..... it matters because the Hightowers want the throne. That's it. This is far from the reason the greens usurped the throne. It's their pretext and you shouldn't fall for it . Also they are not challenging who will be Rhaenyra's heir they are challenging her directly, Otto started plotting before Rhaenyra even have a son. The king is the law and Jace is legally her heir as she is the Queen and can decree that. The great council named Viserys the king.
Nah her walking through Kingslanding isn't that wild. They don't have photographs of people. Unless you really knew her, you won't just recognize a random high born.
The church convo basically accomplished the following:
> Rhaenyra exausting all peaceful options that don't involve her surrendering
> Alicent now knows she f-ed up ROYALY
Royally, huh? ;)
They don’t have Instagram. Most people have no idea what rhaenyra looks like.
“ is this when house bracken gets annihilated”
“we don’t hear about them”
They literally get mentioned in got lol
Aegon is already the fucking king. You think he’s just gonna hand it back over? Get real. Alicent is right. It’s too late
That is right what she would say to Aegon " Son I fucked up give back the crown my bestie Rhaenyra told me the other day what really happened" .
@@josecanal7556 waste of breath
@@josecanal7556 that’s also the theme of this episode… Rhaenys explained it, the back and forth has begun. The Brackens don’t know why they fight the Blackwoods. Luke was killed, Aegon’s son was murdered in his bed. It doesn’t matter it started as a misunderstanding and that Alicent and Rhaenyra want peace.
Hey Aegon I know they literally murdered your son a week ago, but I think we should quit
It doesn’t matter if Aegon voluntarily hands over the throne. Aegon cannot win a war on his own. He needs an army and the support of other lords. If Alicent joins Rhaenyra’s side and tells the other lords that Rhaenyra is the rightful queen, most of the lords will start to flock to Rhaenyra’s side. Alicent was the previous King’s wife, the lords would likely believe her. And without an army Aegon would have to surrender. But of course Alicent is not going to do that.
Daemon wants to be called your grace because he is married to the queen
Daemon is fighting for Rhaenyra, not against her, just like he fought for his brother. All he ever wanted was for his brother and now his wife, to trust him.
I Don’t Think You Guys Remember, But It Didn’t Matter What Alicent Misinterpreted, Otto And The Table Were Planning On Installing Aegon As King Long Before Visarys’ Death
Lesson learned. Don't move rocks or else a war starts.
I get why Alicent doesn’t really accept her mistake, imagine realizing that you fcked up, and kinda started a war, she’s gonna need time to process all of that, although the green council was going to crown aegon anyways (episode 9) they planned that without alicent knowing they just used what alicent heard as an excuse, so probably the war was gonna happen either way, something to consider.
And she doesn’t have any power, she can’t stop the war even if she wanted to, the green council ignores her. Also her “relationship” with cole it’s all about power and last episode he became hand and their power dynamic shifted… this episode before he leaves to war he ask for her favor by raising his voice in front of people, (knowing their affair should be kept secret) to assert his power over her. Reluctantly she hands the favor, and when he brushes her fingers, she pulls away.
So the little power she thought she had with cole is gone, and the power she thought she had through her brother might be gone too, ‘cause now he’s in debt to cole for saving his live.
She is all alone and powerless. (maybe helena on her side)
I don't think she doesn't accept her mistake. Her thinking Viserys changed his mind is what helped her side and get on with taking the throne for Aegon, but when she hears Rhaenyra talking about The Song of Ice and Fire and Aegon The Conqueror, I think she realized that she misunderstood Viserys and that he didn't change his mind. But she also knows that Rhaenyra being the rightful heir doesn't change anything (the council had been plotting to take the throne long before Viserys' death), and when she's telling Rhaenyra there had been no mistake, she's really saying that there is nothing that can be done to stop this war, a war that was destined to happen since the day Viserys named her as his heir (as Rhaenys said that men would rather see the world burn than a woman sit the Iron Throne). Alicent will have to side with the Greens as they're her kin, and this is the last goodbye with the girl who once was her best friend.
She had no power from the beginning 🤷🏻♂️ they were already planning on taking the throne from Rhaenyra
14:57 Was anybody else baffled how the dragons all look amazing but that dong looked fake AF?!
The golden dragon in the greens banner is in honor to Aegon's dragon Sunfyre the golden🔥
too bad the show has barely shown or mentioned him
@@arobin6695And that is just pissing me off, the only reedeming quality of Aegon. is that dragon
I know alicent wasn’t immediately responsive to what rhaenyra told her, but i honestly think she’s going to see the light before the season is over. Rhaenyra has opened her eyes now, and ultimately alicent won’t be able to ignore that, even if she tries.
Even in the teaser for the next episode, it seems like her entire mindset has shifted. She truly doesn't care anymore because she knows now that everything she's done since she was forced to talk to Viserys has been for nothing. She was slightly suicidal before, as seen in the bath scene, but from this point on it seems like she genuinely won't care about her life.
There is literally nothing Alicent can do. She could go to her son and tell him she made a mistake. What do you think that would achieve? You think he would give up the throne? All that would do would make him listen to her even less.
It's too late. War is coming.
@@Marta-uv4id yes, it seems like she’s even more over what the greens are doing at this point. pushing back against aegon. i can’t wait to see it!
@@liljackypaper yes, exactly. the army is out for war, criston and aegon are no longer listening to alicent but taking their own actions regardless of what she says as we saw in the small council with the greens. otto is gone from court which weakens alicent’s position even more. she cannot reel these men back in. but i do think we’re going to see her become increasingly more angry about her own position and looking for another option by end of season. at least i hope so.
The King would most likely kill her if she told him the truth.
So I guess we finally get to see why the show is called Hot D
6 riders on horseback, completely separated from the rest of the garrison...
Navi, "Get the Scorpion.." 😳😳
Lol right
she thought they had it in the woods
Daemon's future is sealed, but it will be glorious above God's eyes.
Im happy they’re going with the Harrenhal is haunted angle and the introduction to Alys Rivers was creepy asf. Daemon needs to leave asap
The souls of the burnt that Aegon the the first did to them in his conquest of Westeros that’s why the castle is badly destroyed 🐉
The way I’d hear that shit and immediately be figuring out how to bounce while still being in control cause _wtf_ bitch who just says that?? Right in front of the Weirwood Tree??? It’s definitely gonna happen now 😭😭😂😂
I hate Crispy as much as the next guy lol but you guys underestimate him as a fighter/war time leader. He knows what he's talking about.
I cannot belive I just said that about Crispy oh god
Well it’s true, he may be a c*nt but at least he is good in combat. We’ve just not seen him in action for some time…
Daemon isnt a prince. He is king consort. So calling him your grace is right
Alicent's brother was in the tourney during the Season 1 premiere. Daemon tripped his horse as a way to disrespect Otto.
Otto Hightower started the war with the small council who already had plans to seat Aegon. Aemond started the fighting. There was also no way Alicent would know of the song of ice and fire, as it was a Targaryen secret passed down to only the heirs since Aegon.
We've actually seen a Blackwood in GoT: The Three-Eyed-Raven, the man under the tree who taught Bran how to use his abilities, was a Blackwood-Targaryen bastard named Brynden Rivers. While it isn't brought up in the show, he had a half-brother who was a Bracken, and the two feuded pretty much their entire lives.
In the show 3ER told Bran he was waiting for him for thousands of years. But BR should be around 120 years old at that time. So i think the show 3ER is completely a different character.
ah The Bloodraven...
how cool would it have been to see him in action
I’m pretty sure the show confirmed he wasn’t Brynden Rivers but just the Three Eyed Raven. It would’ve confused the casuals too much
@@AdmiralHistory to be honest, nothing he did as the three eyed raven had any relevance to him being the bloodraven so I dont think there's a point to show that in the series.
One of the recurring themes in both shows is that the advice the small council offers to rulers isn't always valuable information or useful history rarely remembers the council but always remembers the monarchy and the decisions they make. Robert wanted Dany dead in season one fearing she would raise and army and attack Ned disagreed he was wrong.
According to the director of this episode yes, those are supposed to be Dany's eggs with the Silver/Blueish one being baby Viserys unhatched egg. And before people start whining about the book, even George himself has said "the book is the book and the show is the show".
ngl Hightower horse drip was🔥
I know people are griping about how much of a season is a slow burn, but this episode really represents the 'calm before the storm' phase (if next week's trailer is anything to go by. Also interesting to see how the other noble families are using this chaotic power vacuum as an end to settle old scores (The Blackwood/Bracken feud which is clearly inspired by the Percy-Neville feud from the Wars of the Roses)
It’s too late! Alicent knows she made a mistake but there’s no turning back now.
The Blackwoods and Brackens are like the bloods and the crips, they’ve had beef for centuries. They’ll use any excuse to murder each other.

It's so sad that rhaenyra is seeing the future of the targaryens, and the survival of all humans, and everyone else just wants blood and war. Not seeing the bigger picture.
Melisandre was around when the dance of dragons, she was 400 years old by the time of Game of Thrones
What really started the war was them naming every single child Aegon
The Brackens and Blackwoods are not simple folk. They are rival houses dating back to Age of Heroes. They find any reason to fued and kill each other.
Dany's eggs from GOT are already in Essos. They were traded there 40 years before HOTD starts.
And they were from Dreamfyre. Heleana's dragon
Not according to Show runners they changed it to Syrax
It was never confirmed they were dreamfyres dragons. Only speculated because there were THREE stolen eggs. Since it's not confirmed, it would be wiser to assume those eggs could have belonged to any one of the *thousands of dragons* that roamed the world during the 5000 year reign of the Valyrian empire
@@MagicSecretsandMysteries Team Blacks excuse for all the show favors : "ïN tHe bOoKs iT wAs oNLy sPEcuLaTiOn 😭".

Wait for " it was a biased source"
It's kind of unbelievable that you guys react to shows for a living and still don't understand main plot points. I'm disappointed at the women on that couch who call Alicent a bitch qhen she was basically groomed by her father and Viserys and forced to have a male heir (for no reason now) at 14 years old, A CHILD. When she talked to Rhaenyra she realized everything she has suffered was for nothing. Her life's at risk, her children's and she's powerless because her father is gone, her children think she's loyal to her former friend, the small council won't listen to her, Larys is watching her every move. What can she possibly do now??? Media literacy is dead.
oh boo hoo. Everyones life sucks
Womp womp, we’ll always hate Alicunt
You heard about Bracken House when Catelyn Stark arrested Tyrion and naming soldiers liege lords.
If seasmoke takes a new rider, I take it as Laenor has died somewhere out there
to be fair, Daemon has all the right to be called "Your grace" from one point of view you can say is ever a tribute to Rhaenyra. Alicent for example was never rule of westeros, she was just Queen Consort, but people call her "your grace". "prince" is Daemon title by his all authority, by allowing people to call him "your grace" he is basically accepting his position is thanks to the fact his wife is the ruler, and he is her King Consort.
It is interesting the bias when you dislike someone, the brother of Alicent is basically telling Cole that he is too low born for that position and you "like him" for it. sigh
Yes bc we hate Crispy more 💀
Why would any of you expect Alicent to just accept this after what happened? "Oh, Aegon. I know your son was killed but we were wrong."
What was Rhaenyra expecting? Be fr lmao.
It does not in fact rain all the time in Seattle, despite what all the people who've never been to the beautiful state of Washington tell you.
I don't think you picked up on it, but Alicent's brother is also being a bit racist against Cole. When he was talking about him having a low beginning and being Dornish. Oldtown where the Hightowers are from is right by the border to Dorne and there is a long history of fighting since before Dorne joined the Seven Kingdoms. As much as we hate Cole, Gwayne Hightower was not the most sympatic character in that scene 😅
Yes but Cole being Dornish was something completely made up right? In the books he's from the Strormlands
@@bakthihapuarachchi3447 I think he's not from Dorne but he has dornish parentage. At least in the show, I don't remember if it's specified in the book.
4:52 That Killamanjaro audio clip KILLED me LMFAOOOOOOOOO
Thank you so much for your encouraging words at the beginning of this video.
Today is not the best day for me.
To hear a random stranger tap into my pain lifted me up.
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Alicent is not wrong in that it is far too late, there is absolutely nothing that she can do to stop the war. Aegon will not step down to allow the person who (by virtue of decisions) murdered his son to take the throne. So her saying there was no mistake while not accurate is fine.
In a words of Slim Charles: "it's what war is, you know? Once you in it, you in it. If it's a lie, then we fight on that lie. But we gotta fight."
This is my favorite comment hands down
27:22 You have to remember most of the common people have no idea what the royal family look like at a glance because they're always in the Red Keep, not living among the commoners. There's no TV or phones for their faces to be splashed everywhere so they have to just know silver hair and violet eyes (in the books) mean Valyrian blood.
But like wtf can alicent do ??? I know plp hate on her cuz she is letting the men in her court go above her head but I don't think plp take into the account who is claiming the crown, it is rhaenyra who is claiming it that is why she is able to have at least a sense of control over her court. It is Aegon who is claiming the crown alicent got no power in all of this so I do get that last scene by alicent saying like bruh wtf do you expect me to do 😂😂 also all of alicent kids are older than rhaenyra little babies, changing and controlling grown ass man without political power is impossible
What started the war was Rany escaping to the brothel, sleeping with ser cristen and lying to Alicent. There she started wearing green. Fight me.
Words of wisdom fly from your mouth, Your Grace
It's not even that. It's the fact she trusted her and by doing that she turned against her own father and let viserys remove him as hand of the king.
Why lying to Alicent matters?
Even if Rhaenyra was a Mary Sue, she would still be usurped because she's a woman
That's the point of this war
I really needed to hear that today, thank you.
Did Surj just come from a court trying to win custody of his kids?
Did a ghost just pop out of no where and spoil Daemon’s ending for us all? 🤣
Unfortunately she's not a ghost and will play a bigger role later
@@bakthihapuarachchi3447 Correct, she ends up marrying Aemon Targaryen later down the road
@@sheldonfalor8134 She doesn't marry him though
She'll get pregnant with Aemond's child and stays as his mistress
Im surprised after that hanging fest of Rat Catchers in the city they let the King stroll through the city and get Drunk and no body attack him after that
Seriously? You want to attack the king after what he did? Must be a death wish
dude the armors in this show are SOOOOO good looking
"You will die in this place". Such an ominous and perfectly placed moment of foreshadowing for Daemon while portraying just how haunted Harrenhall truly is. Harren the Black spent 40 years building that gigantic castle, killing who knows how many thousands of slaves to get it done. The day it was finished Aegon the Conqueror arrived in Westeros, and soon after he raized it with Balerion, killing thousands more inside. Doubt there's a castle anywhere else in the GoT universe more haunted than Harrenhall.
And all the more fitting place for Daemon to meet his doom, though it won't be for awhile yet. :) Iykyk.
Omg Daemon is not taking Harrendal in his name can you guys think sometimes ?
Nope we can't
Alicent hasn't had any real say or influence since Viserys' death.
It's a supernatural bond. The dragon knows its rider is dead...
9:36 Normie ladies swooning over the new "green".
Team Green all the way... I hope Daeron appear this season
🤮
None of you are ones to talk about look's! 🤣
When Viserys is preventing war he's indecisive..
When Rhae is being indecisive, shes preventing war..
Damn the double standards
It didn't matter whether Alicent misunderstood or not there was always a plan to usurp the throne without her
10:30 The way they speak about dragons is how we speak about nuclear weapons in modern time. Use nuclear weapons and so will your enemy which leads to your own destruction. And the existence of nuclear weapons is a weapon in itself because of the fear, just like with dragons.
What? Daeron (and now also Tessarion) mentioned again in this episode? Let's gooooo 🗣️🗣️
Perhaps we might get a short glimpse of him by the end of the season. (I'm being delusional 😬 knowing too well that Ryan kept him for S3)
I appreciated the opening words. Yes, when you get knocked down you get right back up!
If Raenyra cared more about her kids than war she could just give crown to Aegon but crown and power is more important to her than her kids
Ut oh. Yall remember who else was sent across the sea? A certain son of corylis and rhaenys ;)
Watching the Normies shows why the whole "Black/Green TEAM" thing is stupid. It so slanted Black that Pat is even on their side. I have forced myself to watch with an unbiased eye. There is no way Alicent can tell her sons. She would be killed or locked in her room forever. Lastly the ladies are so trigged by CC, it makes
me feel he written that way to troll them. Lol
CC is the best character hahaha
The king's guards at the Great Sept were Aegon's goons so I think that explains how they let that meeting happen. They aren't the brightest guys. Additionally, the guards would be on the lookout for suspicious looking men - not women.
Alicent has so many other reasons for crowning Aegon and I wish the writers went with them rather than making her misunderstand Viserys in his last moments. Most of all, that Aegon is the rightful heir by law and precedent. Viserys didn't even codify a law saying that the eldest child, regardless of gender should be the heir. He just wanted special treatment in this one case which doesn't work. He didn't gather his lords and make them re-swear their oaths to Rhaenyra after he had a son, so of course many lords believe that it should be Aegon who sits the Iron Throne. It's always been the eldest son. Any woman in Alicent's shoes would have been upset by the fact that their son wasn't the heir. And we all saw how Viserys treated Alicent and her children. He could have stopped at Aegon, but he made her have three more kids after him. She endured him for years and ofc she wanted something out of it. The writers of the show stripped women of ambition and character flaws which made them very flat.
Great reaction guys. The POV shots were amazing; they made you feel like you were there riding lol
And to the “who started this war?” Debate, I personally think it comes down to Otto. He moved the first chess piece (Allicent). Although it could be said that the bloodline was cursed from the moment Jahaerys held his succession council at Harrenhal… and Harrenhal is like, infamously cursed lmao
Since Viserys holds the most power and responsibility, it falls to him. For one, he brought Otto back as hand. Jahaerys solved his conflict. Viserys was the one who let the conflict ensue. Begging for his family to play together is not effective.
@@rexibhazoboa7097 I KINDA disagree. Because at the same time, it could be said that Jahaerys ruined his reign of peace by naming Viserys heir; just saying. Don’t get me wrong, I loved Viserys, but he was a great person and a horrible king. I agree that he’s at fault for bringing Otto back, but nevertheless, Viserys didn’t physically move the first chess piece of the war; Otto did.
In summary, the gods played with the fate of Jahaerys’ family by deciding to hold a succession council there >>> which led to Viserys (a great person, but weak king) being chosen >>> which led to Viserys choosing a woman as Heir >>> which led to Otto moving his daughter in on Viserys >>> which led to the birth of Aegon, and etc.
GOT season 8 all over again...
Bullshit. In no way comparable to that dumpster fire.
Yall were right about the eggs, Geeta Patel confirmed it
I really appreciate your message at the beginning of the video, Suraj. Thank you and peace to you.
Whoever is the editor who threw in “Killimanjaro” and a few other Halo references deserves a massive raise. Legit crying laughing 😂
