Aegon wasn’t that bad. I feel like he truly loved his nephews. But his mother and Criston Cole poisoned his mind early on. Both parents neglected him which led him to bad behavior. He could have been a great King if taught properly.
0:17 love how blindly optimistic Viserys is at the children training with each other when everyone around him sees clearly how there's a huge line drawn between Alicent's children and Rhaenyra's children
I feel like he knows, that was him enjoying wishful thinking. He knows his grandsons are Harwin's and he knows this could lead to war. So he just tells himself what he wants to be true, but he's not stupid. He knows.

Some great little details How Criston doesn’t say anything when Jace and Luke are attacking tthe strawmen while giving constant instruction to Aegon and Aemond Aegon giving Luke an earnest shoulder pat, implying some genuine affection between the cousins
This is my favorite scene of the show so far. The boys all start fighting and sparring as normal but more and more are spurred on further and further by the mentors to be at each others throats.
Like how the episode shows that Aegon actually doesn't have bad blood with his little niece. More like he is chill and likes to joke around with them. The fighting wasn't Aegon hating them, I think Aegon let his battle adrenaline get to him which makes him not realize things.
@@feyrol42 thanks for the correction, I don't think he hated Aemomd or perfer his Nephew over his brother. Since they're just young they like fooling around that's why you see Aegon pushes them alittle as a way to cheer them up or joke around.This is probably why we saw them make the joke of the Pig Dragon.

The dude isn’t psychotic (like Joffrey), but he was mentally numbed from incidents to come. He wasn’t cruel (mostly) as the worst thing he did was some mild acts of revenge. However I’m a bit biased as I’d definitely be a green.
There’s one thing I don’t understand. Cole could beat a man to death with no consequences but when Harwin beat him up just a little bit he was exiled, how’s that fair
Criston is a member of the kingsguard they are the best of the best only seven are allow to be on service at any time no more no less they are mostly lords, second sons or nobles made knights that protect the king and ONLY follow the orders from the king directly. Harwin is a gold cloak, they are the city watch like the police of kingslanding and follow the orders of the commander of the City Watch of King's Landing and the Master of Laws (This is important since it means they CAN betray the king). Rank wise, Gold cloaks are below the kingsguard.
@@Amantducafe Yes, but Ser Crispy is the son of a Steward .. a no one really who was LUCKY enough to get in the Kingsguard THANKS to Rhaenerya... Harwin is not " beneath" Crispy.. he is also the SON and HEIR of Harrenhal and son to the hand of the King the 2nd most powerful man in the realm.. THE ONLY reason Harwin faced conquences is because that Witch with a B, ALicent has his back.. its also why he avoided punishment for punching Ser Laenor and killing Ser Joffrey.. I mean they are giving this Son of a Steward WAY to much power... he is irritating.. they are on the side of righteousness? Alicent who flirted and possible had sexual relations with a widower two seconds after his wife died, Ser Crispy who dishonored himself ( he could have said NO) and tried to run off with the Princess, Alicent who PRETENDS to be NICE but is snakelike basically ordering Crispy to goad Ser Harwin and telling Ser Larys what she " really wanted".. before you defend her SHE KNEW even if she pretends ignorance.. that is why she DIDNT have him arrested.. if she was half as outraged as she claimed she would have dismissed him from her service and YET where does he still sit! I am sick of hearing the virtues of Crispy and his QUeen Witch!! not saying you are defending Crispy of course but people in the comments are and I am 100% over the hyprocisy.. Yes, Rhanerya was wrong but her husband was FREAKING GAY.. Where TF was she suppose to get her kids from? And her DUTY was to streghten her claim THROUGH CHILDREN ( her father told her this)... creating more heirs so she would be uncontested.
To be fair, it's easy for Criston to justify this double standard as many will instead view Aegon as the true heir. Besides, Rhaenyra’s children are bastards. As far as Criston is concerned, they aren't worth the same amount of attention.
@@andreasballe7470 It's been made clear that it is very much an open secret in the red keep that the children are illegitimate.

scolding someone never good even if that person is lower than you i think that should be the right way to raise children prince also children we don't want them to grow up and be arrogant asshole

I like how there is still that air of impartiality. Cole is spiteful and rough with Jace but notice how he does attend to him same as the rest right before. When Aemond smacks his sword down, Cole says to him 'Don't stand too upright my prince, you'll get knocked down'. And he says nothing to Harwin but Harwin (of course, only being a caring, dutiful -father- guy) is the one who intercedes that 'the younger boys could do better with a bit of your attention', when, all Cole had done was take a second out to actually check Aegon (with Aemond) and somewhat discipline him because he was goofing off and messing around, not at that point was Cole doing anything underhanded in terms of being cruel to Rhaenyra's kids.
@@michaelnkomphela8231 That's what I'm saying. 'Not at that point was Cole doing anything underhanded in terms of being cruel to Rhaenyra's kids.' And, on top, I was saying he wasn't being inattentive, he does check on Jace in the scene.
Cole is the top warrior of his time (despite the shows version). He wasn't given a fair fight because even 3 against one his attackers would have all lost and they knew it)
3:07 for some reason in this part that meme "more passion, more energy" started playing in my mind, and then Ser. Criston shouts for Aegon to use his feet and I cracked up laughing what a nice footwork
This show never disappoints with casting. The Strong Boys look just the way they do in the book where everyone can easily tell they’re not Laenors sons.
@@DDiamond8374 Aegons probably a deviant rapist because he’s spoiled, isn’t properly told off or punished, and the girls are terrified to resist so he probably doesn’t see it as rape. Kids fucked up, all Alicent and Viserys fault
Aegon and his cousins seemed to get along, but Aemond was bullied by the rest and already seemed resentful because of it And the thing is, what Alicent said to Aegon wasn't wrong. As long as he lives, there will be those who want him on the throne rather than Rhaenyra (or her very obvious bastards), which means unless he joined the Night's Watch or Kingsguard, his existence is a threat to the Blacks and he'd be in danger. Rhaenyra's position as heir is legally dubious at best, even if the king didn't have trueborn sons and her own heirs weren't obviously illegitimate--the only reason the lords approved her naming as heir in the first place was because they didn't want Daemon to inherit
@@BroadwayRonMexico exactly, people don't understand that it's not a matter of "are they cool with each other or not", aegons and aemonds lives will be forfeit once viserys dies... Allicent is simply preparing them for that. I don't know how people are so blind to that... They must be forgetting that this is the same world as game of thrones or something

0:08 I also like that detail that Reanyras boys like to push Amound around with Jace bumping him while aegon gives Lucarys a pat on the back showing aegon does respect his little cousins.
The Kings idea of training them together to get on good terms isn't the worst, it's so grandfatherly. Shame it was doomed from the start due to his own blindness to the clear division
Man, Aegon likes his girls PLAIN..... Aegon: Hey ladies........😏😉😘😁 Servant Girls: EWWWWW!!!! The Prince is scoping us out.....!! Get him away from me!!!!! 😫😖
They literally washed down cole in series. Cole in book is far better fighter than Daemon and Harwin and other guys. He got harwin down in no time in book while tv series is showing completely different things.
You know, for his name being Strong, he fails to show any strength towards malicious or verbal intent. But I guess it’s similar to how huge and tall people could be listed as Tiny.
Gotta love the hypocrisy from Ser Criston reminding Harwin that he’s grabbing the Prince yet Ser Criston grabs Jacaerys forcefully before he starts sparring with Aegon
Aegon throughout the whole show doesn’t seem to dislike luke and jace at all. They get along fine, Aegon just jokes. Out of all the characters, Aegon wants the least to do with the whole quarrel.
Ser Chicken Nugget is the king of passive aggressive assholery. This dude seriously drops one of the sparring swords on the ground as Harwin's picking them up. Then wipes his nose. What a freakin loser.
@@animeisthewayhaha Doesn't matter he is a warrior, Alicent and Otto can play the politics. I believe there is only one living person in HOTD who can fight better than him... but I will not say because no #SPOILERS
Man the dance of the dragons reminds me of Team fortress 2 only instead it’s gold and green and black and red fighting each other not blue and red. I bet you if Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen saw the past they were like wow this is our family bunch of dimwitted fools.
that little flash of contrasting temperament of Aegon giving his little nephew a pat on the back, and Jace and Aemond shoulder checking each other.
Aegon is more of a monster though, you can see his gaze at the maids, and the maid's reaction, that he already started raping.

Still got his ass beat lol
@@honeybadger1810Because he let lol
Aegon fights with style, the stage is his, i love him 😂
The kids didn't hate each other it was alicent and simp criston who caused it.
Aegon and his cousins seemed to get along, but Aemond was bullied by the rest and already seemed resentful because of it
And the thing is, what Alicent said to Aegon wasn't wrong. As long as he lives, there will be those who want him on the throne rather than Rhaenyra (or her very obvious bastards), which means unless he joined the Night's Watch or Kingsguard, his existence is a threat to the Blacks and he'd be in danger. Rhaenyra's position as heir is legally dubious at best, even if the king didn't have trueborn sons and her own heirs weren't obviously illegitimate--the only reason the lords approved her naming as heir in the first place was because they didn't want Daemon to inherit
@@BroadwayRonMexico exactly, people don't understand that it's not a matter of "are they cool with each other or not", aegons and aemonds lives will be forfeit once viserys dies... Allicent is simply preparing them for that. I don't know how people are so blind to that... They must be forgetting that this is the same world as game of thrones or something
Aemond clearly hates them though
@@BroadwayRonMexico Exactly! Although Aemond was always kind to Jace and Luke until the scene where he lost his eye
@@monie3558 Aemond stepped in front of Luke to protect him when the fight between Jace and Aegon got bad. And he went up to and wanted to comfort Jace during the funeral. He was always kind to them (until that scene in episode 7) even though they were involved in bullying him
Harwin smirk when Jayce rushes Aegon and has him backing up to their one on one interaction is so satisfying to watch
0:08 I also like that detail that Reanyras boys like to push Amound around with Jace bumping him while aegon gives Lucarys a pat on the back showing aegon does respect his little cousins.
One thing you notice with Ser Criston Cole is how he seems to change his accent depending on who he is talking to.
He's the new Baelish.
@@ctvuniverse4414 SHANSHA PLEASHE!
Non canon. Cole fucks him up in the book to the point he's mockingly called Brokenbones
Get him Aegon!
Ok no one can explain how Criston keeps getting away with his behavior he literally insinuated that Harwin was the boys father like what
umm maybe cause he is??
@@greatcalf80 no one knows that, they can suspect it but will never know
@@alinalisan3361 I mean its quite obvious anyone other than the king who has a brain knows it
That might not be the best example, but they got a point. Criston shouldn't be anywhere remotely alive when he murdered Joffrey.
@@greatcalf80 even if it is obvious they are forbidden to say such things just as Alicent was even though she doesn’t care 🧍🏽♀️
Aegon is so unintentionally funny
Criston Cole is a chad.
Exactly
Cristen Cole was done bad in the show just due to show runners dislike of him. Similar to Stannis in GoT
Aegon probably be getting those girls later 😂
They all did seem to get along for a while
Bummer that the Strongs got merked…they were my favorites and seemed like better people than the rest…sort of like an off brand Stark.
Funny enough, "stark" in German means strong...
Same. Definitely too good for the realm.
I love this GOT Series. Every episode gets better. I started to post clips related to this series on RUclips. I hope it can be watched as much as you.
The Kings idea of training them together to get on good terms isn't the worst, it's so grandfatherly. Shame it was doomed from the start due to his own blindness to the clear division
Viserys is a very likeable character
I love how dumb people think everything is alicent fault, they really can't think
Man, Aegon likes his girls PLAIN.....
Aegon: Hey ladies........😏😉😘😁
Servant Girls: EWWWWW!!!! The Prince is scoping us out.....!! Get him away from me!!!!! 😫😖
Harwin with his boys 🥰😩😭
If I ever become a coach, I will definitely yell out “Use your feet!!!!” even if for no reason
THIS IS THE STUFF LYONEL!!
I freaking love cole ❤❤🤣
They literally washed down cole in series. Cole in book is far better fighter than Daemon and Harwin and other guys. He got harwin down in no time in book while tv series is showing completely different things.
You know, for his name being Strong, he fails to show any strength towards malicious or verbal intent. But I guess it’s similar to how huge and tall people could be listed as Tiny.
I love how after harwin bet criston up criston is just laughing cause he knows he’s right 😂😂
Gotta love the hypocrisy from Ser Criston reminding Harwin that he’s grabbing the Prince yet Ser Criston grabs Jacaerys forcefully before he starts sparring with Aegon
He's training him so he can do that.
Press 9 to repeat the crispy beatdown.
I like how at first glance without context we'd assume that Harwin was the harsh instructor while Criston was the more sympathetic one
Why Criston disrespecting Rharnyras Children are not noticed?
nothing like the books
the way Aegon pats Lucerys on the back as they swapped out :( sad to think about how things ended up when you see moments like that
Better than galadriels training scene
Strong wanting to spend more time with his sons and see them succeed.
GET HIM HARWIN!!!
Criston played harwin so badly here & laughed while & after getting hit.
What a 🐐 criston is
The Velaryon boys with three father and three grandfather ❤
Viserys looking like Palpatine
Harwin stopped the more skilled Aemond from defeating his Strong boy.
Thought as much😂
I've won my first bout Ser Criston, my opponent sues for mercy.
Aegon throughout the whole show doesn’t seem to dislike luke and jace at all. They get along fine, Aegon just jokes. Out of all the characters, Aegon wants the least to do with the whole quarrel.
They are trying to demonize Cole and Aegon a bit too much here. Like come on now.
Ser Chicken Nugget is the king of passive aggressive assholery.
This dude seriously drops one of the sparring swords on the ground as Harwin's picking them up. Then wipes his nose. What a freakin loser.
Loser? Sounds like rhaenyra & daemon‼️
Aemond gonna be the best fighter of them all... on god.
You said it!
Best fighter. Bad politician
@@animeisthewayhaha how's he a bad politician. He was loyal to his brother till the end. He literally carried the greens.
@@animeisthewayhaha Doesn't matter he is a warrior, Alicent and Otto can play the politics. I believe there is only one living person in HOTD who can fight better than him... but I will not say because no #SPOILERS
@@cybercityoedo808 I’m assuming the initials are CS 🙂
Are Rhenyra's first three sons all from Harwin Strong or is there a possibility that the oldest one is from Criston Cole?
The second two are definitely harwins but jace could be coles
With the timing
But the show makes it clear all three are harwin bastards
Harwin Strong being introduced and killed in the same episode is my only complaint with this series.
Na I saw him in ep 3 n 5
1:35 hahaha
2:06 and 2:08
Even they noticed something wasnt right
I mean he is a bastard after all. No knight who knows it would respect him
Ser Duncan The Tall SURELY would.
Sabia que conocia al actor de aegon es tom en war of the worlds de gabriel byrne
Why does Criston say "lord of the match" at the end there? Did he collude with Larys to get Harwin killed?
He says “thought as much”, as in Hardin taking such offence proved he’s the father.
@@djmatchstickman OH!! that makes a lot more sense...
God criston is such a prick he just does a complete 180, incel
Man the dance of the dragons reminds me of Team fortress 2 only instead it’s gold and green and black and red fighting each other not blue and red. I bet you if Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen saw the past they were like wow this is our family bunch of dimwitted fools.
probably wouldn't, Jon is a kinslayer too lol
Pootis dispenser her
Bran can likely see what's happening through the weirwood tree.
you could argue this is when the boys internalised such violence and thought it was alright to harm each other physically in driftmark
Criston acts like he didn't penetrate her too.😂
Only once 😂😂
3:26 me when a dirt my t shirt
In the books, doesn’t viserys live up to 40 or something?
Gosh we hate cole 😂😂
What Harwin should have responded with is. "I care about the training of my future king" that being Jace. That would piss ser Criston off big time
Future king? Cole would’ve probably laughed at that lmao
Harwin being so indiscrete just smiling at his bastards openly
the babies were so cute 😭
or a son...
