    Actually, Rhaenyras point in the argument regarding the step stones was that the cost to defend the region would pale in comparison to the cost of the war that would come as a result of leaving it undefended. She is trying to say that her idea in the long run is more financially stable, and it shows that she is thinking logically about the situation and being realistic, whereas Alicent is just playing the antagonist and truly has no idea what she's talking about.

      You're not supposed to be attached to them, you're supposed to realize that they were the love interests for the characters that were supposed to be attached to for 10 years and feel bad for them for suffering another tragic loss. If they fleshed out the relationships more audiences might find themselves wishing the targaryians remained with their original "loves" but killing them without fleshing them out allows the audience to focus on daemon and rhaenaras love story.

Like "oh well, ten years have past, so we forgot everything that was at play before, here are 2 new actresses to replace 2 main characters, while the other ones can stay" huh? Why?

After all he admitted to his "sin" readily knowing he'd be executed. But seriously how naive is he? He calls her a spoiled cnt like he didn't enjoy banging her too.

    I'm renaming the Greens to the Bitters.
    Ser Cole has no one but himself to blame for "sinning". He didn't have to sleep with Rheanyra, they even showed how he weighed that decision with that long pause before he put his cloak down in episode 4. If he wasn't ready to be her boy toy, why did he agree so easily? Why did he even think that she would discard her duty for him? He's known her for how many years, he knows how important it is for her to become Queen. Dude assumed things and then got butthurt when his expectations weren't met and let his emotions dictate his actions...even ten years later when he goads Harwin Strong. He's probably jealous too because Rheanyra hasn't discarded Harwin Strong, even after 10 years (I think Harwin and Rhaenyra loved each other just from the way they looked at each other during their brief moments together).
    Alicent is also bitter over the fact that while she has to serve the old and decaying King, Rhaenyra gets to do whatever she wants with handsome young knights. I'd have no problem with this jealousy except she masks her hatred for Rhaenyra as being honourable and just and pretends that she isn't going to benefit from it. Not to mention the way she acts so catty at every opportunity.
    Larys also probably bitter/resentful at his brother and even father because he has a clubfoot and I can do a whole psychoanalysis on how that most likely gave him an inferior complex because his father and brother are everything a Strong should be and he isn't. Add on top of that he is a second son and that makes a perfect recipe for the betrayal. Larys was dealt the same hand as Tyrion and yet he did not love his brother as much as Tyrion loved his. Sad, considering how it all ends for House Strong

    Tbh, I felt like they made Laenas death rather emotional. Not because of her alone but because of the bond she had with Vhagar.
    I recall them saying that once a dragon bonds they’re bonded for life and will only do what’s told to them by their rider. We see that when she approaches Vhagar she gives the command Dracyarus (I think it’s spelled) and the dragon imo, was confused by who she was telling it to burn.
    When it briefly looked around it realized she meant to burn her, the rider. The dragon then lets out a cry, realizing she has to do what’s commanded of her.
    That’s heartbreaking in itself. I’m sure if you’ve ever had to pull the plug on someone you loved or witnessed it this might’ve choked you.

    Ok, upon more investigation. Larys Strongs' use of the Beetle symbol could be because of the symbolism of the Beetle in Nature which is "Almost all beetles can represent strength, transformation, and a renewal of nature. Beetles are some of the smallest creatures on earth, but they are far from the weakest. These small creatures represent and impress with their strength and fortitude" Larys being considered the weaker of the 2 brothers in physicality, shows his strength in his mental cunningness and fortitude in getting what he wants.

    And Rhaenyra (silver hair) + Harwin (brunette hair) = Jacaerys, Lucerys and the new baby boy (brunette hair)? Like why? It doesn't make any sense. Does the hair colour only depend on the father?

      The Starks in GoT have Catelyn's brown hair apart from Jon and Arya, who is the spitting image of Lyanna Stark. It's not dependent on the male parent. Oberyn Martell's daughters all tend to resemble their mothers, especially Tyene who is fair skinned and blonde.
      Rhaeneyra herself is part Arryn ( mother's father) so there we have it, she just has very bad luck with three mini Harwins. Her situation is bad because everyone knows Leanor is gay and wouldn't lie down with her to make at least one legit child with Valyrian features.

    It doesn't make sense for her to have 3 bastard children. I mean she already knew that people were gossiping and doubting the legitimacy of her children but she still went on and gave birth to another bastard child, knowing it only makes her claim to the throne weaker. IDK but all this makes her look stupid. and Leanor betraying his house like that was just off for me he knows he's the heir to driftmark and eventually one of his sons will have to take over and yet he just accepts the 'strong' children as his, meaning he'll just allow children with no blood ties to his to rule his father throne. In episode 5 they both agreed to do their duties I would imagine that making true born heirs would be part of their duties.
    Alicent comes off as cruel yes, but I would also not allow my true-born children to kneel to a bastard king in the future. They have Targaryen blood but we know that bastards don't have a claim to the iron throne, If so all bastards made by kings would have a claim.
