This episode reveals that Hugh Hammer's mother was Princess Saera Targaryen, the daughter of the old King, which means that he's riding his grandfather's dragon.
I realized she was his mother quickly too, as soon as he said she worked in a pleasure house and said her brothers sons were Daemon and Viserys, it immediately came into my head that Saera left her court to go run a pleasure house.
Silverwing: Ooh, is that an egg hatching I hear? *checks* Silverwing: Hmm. Weird looking baby and he's kinda clumsy but I'm gonna love him and squeeze him and call him mine anyway.
@@39Bosski It's not an egg Ulf stepped to. It's the left-over embryo shell that protects the egg inside the womb of a dragon. They showed the egg there still intact. A Dragon's egg is very sturdy like a rock it won't break by just someone stepping on it.
31:40 Vermithor simply just asking "Do any of these people have courage? Do any of them have BALLZ?!? I'm going to keep burning until,..oh wait,..there IS one."
Vermithor was just enjoying a barbecue until one of the treats started sassing him. Thankfully, by that time, Vermithor had a full belly, so he was amused and then impressed instead of irritated and sniffed instead of flamed, and found out that this particular treat shared the blood of his last rider. So he took him on as his rider.
And do you know if the son of the young Oscar Tully who we see in this episode end up being Hoster Tully who we briefly see the funeral of in the GoT series?
I like that the dragons have such different personalities. Seasmoke chose Addam because Addam is the brother of Leanor. Vermithor chose Hugh because Hugh displayed strength. Silverwing chose Ulf because Silverwing was lonely.
@@Raikama21 Towards the end of his life Saera was one of Jaeharys’s biggest regrets and who he often thought of most. Maybe seeing the defiant spirit shared by him and Saera in a child of her blood called to Vermithor.
And do you know if the son of the young Oscar Tully who we see in this episode will end up being Hoster Tully who we briefly see the funeral of in the GoT series?
God I love the Dragon’s personalities. Seasmoke becoming highly protective of Addam, and Silverwing’s loneliness getting the better of her, Vermithor’s crankiness toasting an entire room until Hugh yelled at him and he was like “yea ok I’m full anyway”

Was he though?, judging from most of the comments I’d say the jury is out on your opinion. I forgot he was even in this episode until you mentioned it.
But Saera didn't give birth while she was still in King's Landing. There are only theories of her possibly having a child in Lys, so idk if this dragon seed could be Saera's. It could be another one of Baelon's bastards but idk, I really want the showrunners to explain
That little Lord Paramount is cunning and clever. He played Daemon like a fiddle to manipulate Daemon to do what he should have done when the Riverlords came to him the first time.
Addam not dropping Daddy's name to curry favor was a strong moment. All he keeps urging Alyn to do is get Corlys to acknowledge him. But, he did not bring Corlys into it when he could.
As Someone who read the book. I loved ❤ seeing SilverWing. Also Ulf the White just flying over Kings Landing was hilarious 😂 ps Silver wing is knowing for her kindness towards humans and even people she never met before. So it makes sense she’d took one look at ulf and said hey dude you wanna fly
It's interesting that Rhaenyra started with Vermithor instead of Silverwing... surely she also knew Silverwing would be a kinder start, with fewer casualties. It's almost like our good Queen wanted to weed out most of her and her son's challengers before settling for two. Of course no one gets to return home with the knowledge that it is indeed possible they could at any moment stumble upon a wild dragon, or even an egg, and claim it for themselves.
@@hopemikaelson9223don't invent things out of ur mind this is nonsense, if wanted them gone she could do it another time after she secured the claiming not before that since she was too desperate to sacrifice any, some of u all find wierd excuses to hate on her u all are wierd be smart abt it
It is said by GRRM himself that Silverwing (the dragon claimed by Ulf) is the calmest and kindest of the dragons on dragon stone, so for a non threatening person like Ulf to stumble upon her basically makes tons of sense for not being immediately roasted.
Rhaenyra has Syrax Vermax Seasmoke Moondancer Vermithor Silverwing Caraxes (And Sheepstealer joining soon) Aemond has Vhgar Thats 1 dragon vs 7 dragons. The greens have a huge dragon called Dreamfyre, but her rider Helena is mentally unstable. Sunfyre got mortally wounded already. And Daeron who will join the war in season 3, has a medium size dragon called Tessarion. So perhaps Aemond realized the odds are not in his favour. He had been too cocky because of Vhagar. But with Vermithor on Rhaenyra's side, the game has changed.
I do not know how it took me this long to realize it, but the actor who is playing Alicent’s guard Ser Richark is the dude who played the right hand man to Leonidas in 300 (Vincent Regan). He was also recently in the One Piece live action and some have fan casted him as the guy that could replace Ray Stevenson as Baylon Skoll in Ahsoka.
Who else was completely unsurprised Drunkle Ulf got peer pressured into claiming a dragon, and took his inaugural flight over KL as a DUI (dragonriding while intoxicated). AND Silverwing is a complete sweetheart: "Honey are you lost? Can I help you find your way back to where you're safe?" ETA 22:45 you guys are so wholesome, stop it, lol
Vhagar is like a 100 year old schizophrenic lady who accuses you of stealing her remote and turning it into a goose to control chickens..... Silverwing is that nice nana that offers you cookies when you come visit

Essentially killing any future of their own line to find a potential rider. Even if they are not true blooded Targ, they still carry some of that lineage.
@@ameliacraiig4193 If Alicent was doing it to save her kid's rightful claim...and she gave the people a choice...then no one would bat an eye. Rhaenyra was hated by her own people for doing it ..but to the viewers... it's necessary. And she gave them a choice so Whatever
Absolutely loved the sound design of Vermithor. And Silverwing is so pretty! What an episode. Setting things up for the finale really nice. Vhagar raring to go was a nice touch; she was a true war dragon. Aemond just doesn't really GET that.
Aemond understands Vhagar. He’s understood her since she killed Arrax and Luke. And there’s a reason why Vhagar chose Aemond to be her rider. They’re both maniacal, dangerous battle hungry creatures.
Dude, I loved Oscar. He reminded me of Jon snow, and frankly, I feel like he's someone Daemon needs because he calls him out in subtle yet open ways. That kid is smart, I also loved how big vermathor looked in comparison to the other dragon that was sleeping. Man, it's getting so good 😂 thanks for the reaction, my lord rejects
Rhaena Targaryen and Sheepstealer I'm calling it now, Rhaenyra's flex to Aemond was so smugly satisfying. Ulf is going to get a DWI unless he falls off the dragon. Oscar Tully putting Daemon in check was the best scene. 10/10 episode.
@@trojanboy88 its possible we still get Nettles I mean I could be wrong and Rhaena actually gets another wild dragon like Grey Ghost or Cannibal leaving Nettles with Sheepstealer
@@ZIASBLOU not to be a purest but even that I don’t want. No one should be getting either of those dragons. I thought she still had an egg for herself with her.
Also I think that was unplanned at the end, seems like an Ulf thing to just hop on and joyride. Why would Rhaenyra send him to lure Aemond? His first ride, inexperienced. Need someone who could handle themselves if something went wrong, like Baela and Moondancer. I say it was spontaneous and she took the opportunity to go out and then saw Aemond and decided to make it a flex
I guess I just love episode 7s of this show. Vermithor and Silverwing are gorgeous designs and I appreciate how different the dragons look. I felt sorry for Jace and I remembered when he first asked Rhaenyra if he was a bastard. She said "we are Targaryens, that's all that matters." He feels like that doesn't matter anymore. I'm happy Rhaenyra can finally join the fight. It's not her nature to stand there doing nothing so that last scene gave me chills.
Mysaria’ a perspective is interesting. Because she herself is low born, she’s able to present Rhaenyra with ideas that she never would’ve thought of herself. Mysaria seems to respect her fellow commoners still despite being elevated by Rhaenyra.
All the fast paced political positioning in the scene with the young Lord Tully was so well done. Glad Daemon went through enough dream therapy to react strategically. I thought Corlys was going to finally claim his sons. Poor Jace. Not a lot of choice but he has a reason to worry. "This space belongs to Vhagar" was hilarious. Vhagar is a girl, Greg 😜 She is a badass granny.
Loved this episode! Really felt for Jace - you could see the tears in his eyes and he's right in a sense. I hated that he wasn't around to help with the dragonseeds - it was HIS idea. Really loved the parallel between Hugh/Vermithor and Sliverwing/Ulf. Hugh and Vermithor seemed to challenge one another while both Silverwing and Ulf kinda submitted. Very cool. Loved Aemond backing down - 100% it would've been over for him. The last shot of Rhaenyra and all the dragons? Fantastic. I wish things moved a bit faster this season, but here we are.
Nah it was Mushroom's idea but Jace then saw it through but yeh Jace calling the bastards "mongrels" was a bit weird given the fact that he himself is a bastard.
He and Rhaenyra are taking completely opposite perspectives on recruiting lowborn extramarital Targs. I get why he's upset, but they don't have many options here. Jace also seems to be embittered towards Myseria. Does he mistrust all common folk, or is that the product of being insulted for being the product of an affair himself?
I do like how Daemon and Rhaenyra have been separated. Rhaenyra has to actually rule now that he’s gone and stand on her own. Meanwhile Daemon has to decide what kind of man he is and who he’s fighting for.
@@shanedalton9465Prob bronze fury Vermithor if you’re talking about the 3 dragons he’s old as hell so he’s prob rusted down a bit (bronze) he just looked smaller cause they prob wanted without question to kill Vhagar there by sneaking him.
That kid was smart though, because he solved Damon’s problem for him. You have a bad reputation we’re not gonna pretend otherwise I’m just gonna make them decide to follow you anyway and they’re gonna respect me more for being honest and not trying to sell you as something you’re not. That’s really the only way to sell this
It really feels like Larys is pushing the Maester to push Aegon because he knows he is in danger. He knows it is painful for Aegon, but he has to get better.
lol foreshadowing maybe or not, that is how they beat him up when he was young they jumped his ass but didnt kill him, it be cool if vhagar loses an eye too
Man, the contrast of Baela saying to Corlys "I am of Blood and fire. Driftmark must pass to salt and see", then Alyn saying to him "I am of salt and sea. I yearn for nothing else." I loved that.
Hugh is the son of Saera Targaryen-a aunt of Viserys- who was caught with having relations with 3 close male companions. She proposed to her father Jaeharys I that she’d marry all three of them like Maegor did with his wives-which was exactly the wrong button to push with the king since Maegor murdered two of his brothers. After this and after she tried to steal a dragon he killed one of her lovers in a duel while forcing her to watch then tried to send her to become a silent sister (which was mentioned as likely being an empty threat). She escaped and fled to Essos and may still be alive. I’m sure if she heard she’d be laughing hysterically at one of her sons claiming her father’s dragon.
Saera was pretty much bad from the get go; a narcissist who had a taste for cruel practical jokes and who was disliked or mistrusted by all of her siblings.
She was also known to be selfish, cruel and manipulative, often pitting men against each other for her amusement and mistreating or physically abusing servants.
Dude, I loved Oscar. He reminded me of Jon snow, and frankly, I feel like he's someone Daemon needs because he calls him out in subtle yet open ways. That kid is smart, I also loved how big vermathor looked in comparison to the other dragon that was sleeping. Man, it's getting so good thanks for the reaction, my lord rejects
I suspect Larys actually wasn't sure that the rumor about Seasmoke was true, and he didn't want to pass on something he can't confirm (unless it's part of his own misdirection). He left it to Ironrod to report it if he wants. And the dragon that came by right then was a different one, which they had no whispers about.
Silverwing waking up like "what is one of Vermithors snack doing stepping in my eggs? And immediately going I smell Targaryen you woke me you are taking me out for a ride." Had me dying.
I love the completely different dragon personalities lol. Vermithor made hugh earn his respect while silverwing was on more of a "whats up fucking loser!!WELL??!!?? Get on!!" Type vibe.
How come I'm only realizing this now... Abubakar Salim (Alyn of Hull) and Amanda Collin (Jeyne Arryn) are also together as the android leads of Ridley Scott's Raised by Wolves. Amanda has this otherworldy, almost eldritch beauty and she plays a 'wolf in sheep's clothing' so well.
This hit my heartstrings as one who loves the reign of Jaeheryis and Alyssanne. A huge tale of love, heroes, dragons. Just incredible Targaryens that almost the whole of Westeros adored and loved. These two were the very best of the whole dynasty. So many Targaryens are just the reason for their own destruction but Jaeheryis and Alysanne lived such a huge life and so many tales come from their reign. Silverwing was Queen Alysannes, and Vermithor was the Kings. They are just as beautiful as I could have hoped for!!!
I LOVED how Oscar Tully played on the Riverlords hatred of Daemon and got them to follow Rhaenyra by insulting Daemon. You can see Daemon understand what Oscar is doing when he tells him to mind his tongue. Great stuff.
58:11 are we forgetting that Daemon is in harrenhal to get an army that Rhaenyra does not have? Yes, she got two dragons and that is a big deal, but she does not have an army to hold castles at this point, that is all Daemon. And Riverlands is a place where it is difficult to get everyone to ally behind the same cause. This is not just about him grieving and having character development, the most essential thing for Rhaenyra is an army right now.
Oscar is my favorite character this season and 2nd favorite in house of the dragon, he can take care of himself, he doesn't back down, he holds his own side accountable, I love all that. 2nd it might just be me and that's ok, I feel like Jace is going to do something dangerous, I'm not sure what or to whom, I just feel like he is going to start something he can't finish.
Jace better not try to fight vhagar 1v1 he’ll be eaten whole😭 he needs to calm down and trust his mother. I do feel for him though, because potentially once he’s crowned king the lowborn dragonriders with silver hair like hugh and ulf who have much larger dragons could press their claims for his throne. Rhaenrya gave them dragons before gaining their full loyalty, she mistakenly trusted them to be as loyal as addam which isnt wise since they all had very different upbringings
Oscar was the mvp of the episode. I love that the dragons pick their riders. I believe Rhaenyra told Ulf to go to Kingslanding to draw Aemond out so they could ambush him. That last shot of Rhaenyra and the 3 dragons waiting on Aemond gave me life. Loved your reaction
I knew hugh and ulf were being set up to be the guys (not because of the books, it was just obvious due to screentime) and yet when it happened i was still so excited and happy lol
now i kinda wish that they focused on 1 or 2 more of the bastards in the previous episodes so we would have someone else to root for during the dragon claiming scene, only to have them die.
Love love LOVE this episode! The new Lord Tully putting Daemon in check was a great scene. I hope Rhaena claims the wild dragon. I'm so happy that Ulf claimed Silverwing but I don't trust Hugh Hammer. There is something about him that I don't trust. Once again Ser Simon was a bright spot in the episode. My favorite episode this season!
I know how you feel, he lost his daughter and i feel like he’ll lose his wife too and if that happens he wouldnt have anything to fight for and if somehow it could be perceived as the blacks fault he might betray his queen😭 and knowing its game of thrones im scared something tragic like that could happen
Thank you for getting these out so quick, I don’t watch live because my anxiety makes me weird about these kind of dramas, but once I watch the reaction here I know what’s coming and can enjoy the full experience. ❤

@@scooter1687😅 that's a close one imagine that 😂
@@scooter1687me too hahaha
@@scooter1687yeah how crazy would that be huh…..
@@Syndra2938mann shut upp
Absolutely loved the sound design of Vermithor. And Silverwing is so pretty! What an episode. Setting things up for the finale really nice. Vhagar raring to go was a nice touch; she was a true war dragon. Aemond just doesn't really GET that.
The dragons were so good this episode! I got chills when I heard that first low bellow that Silverwing let out
@@officialtorrent928it was great to see their personalities shine!
Silverwing is gorgeous!
Aemond understands Vhagar. He’s understood her since she killed Arrax and Luke. And there’s a reason why Vhagar chose Aemond to be her rider. They’re both maniacal, dangerous battle hungry creatures.
He knows vhagar is a war dragon but he is not stupid
Aemond saw from a distance and was like "sh*t"...
yeah gotta give it to rhenyra aemond had no chance 1v4 that
Nah hes got his siblings. If Vhagar, Sunfyre, Dreamfyre and Tessarion teams up nobodys beating em
He realized it was a trap, especially since he had very recently set a similar trap.
@@oleageoun1798 i know if the other drags was there ryenyra was cooked
Bro realized his one big old she-dragon was no match for 7 dragons on the enemy side😂
Dude, I loved Oscar. He reminded me of Jon snow, and frankly, I feel like he's someone Daemon needs because he calls him out in subtle yet open ways. That kid is smart, I also loved how big vermathor looked in comparison to the other dragon that was sleeping. Man, it's getting so good 😂 thanks for the reaction, my lord rejects
Rhaena Targaryen and Sheepstealer I'm calling it now, Rhaenyra's flex to Aemond was so smugly satisfying. Ulf is going to get a DWI unless he falls off the dragon. Oscar Tully putting Daemon in check was the best scene. 10/10 episode.
Ya its looking like it...i dont get why they couldnt cast someone to play Nettles tho
@@trojanboy88 its possible we still get Nettles I mean I could be wrong and Rhaena actually gets another wild dragon like Grey Ghost or Cannibal leaving Nettles with Sheepstealer
@@ZIASBLOU not to be a purest but even that I don’t want. No one should be getting either of those dragons. I thought she still had an egg for herself with her.
Also I think that was unplanned at the end, seems like an Ulf thing to just hop on and joyride. Why would Rhaenyra send him to lure Aemond? His first ride, inexperienced. Need someone who could handle themselves if something went wrong, like Baela and Moondancer. I say it was spontaneous and she took the opportunity to go out and then saw Aemond and decided to make it a flex
Dang the credits are still rolling!
Istg
Dang you got here quick
Best Episode Of The Season?!
Yes
YESS
No
That’ll still be episode 4 but definitely number 2 maybe up until the finale 🫣
Naw it's still Meleys and Rhaenys last dance for me. But this was a good episode.
This is the equivalent of “Okay you have a battleship, I have 3 destroyers, LITERALLY come at me bro!”
@@seanking1775You care to much enjoy the show and stfu. Vhagar gets walked on by a smaller dragon anyways THAT will be impressive.
True, but Vermithor could be considered a battleship as well. Vermithor is a big boy
I guess I just love episode 7s of this show. Vermithor and Silverwing are gorgeous designs and I appreciate how different the dragons look. I felt sorry for Jace and I remembered when he first asked Rhaenyra if he was a bastard. She said "we are Targaryens, that's all that matters." He feels like that doesn't matter anymore. I'm happy Rhaenyra can finally join the fight. It's not her nature to stand there doing nothing so that last scene gave me chills.
Mysaria’ a perspective is interesting. Because she herself is low born, she’s able to present Rhaenyra with ideas that she never would’ve thought of herself. Mysaria seems to respect her fellow commoners still despite being elevated by Rhaenyra.
Rhaenyra does not respect them 😂
How to train your dragon came in full force this episode 💯
All the fast paced political positioning in the scene with the young Lord Tully was so well done. Glad Daemon went through enough dream therapy to react strategically.
I thought Corlys was going to finally claim his sons.
Poor Jace. Not a lot of choice but he has a reason to worry.
"This space belongs to Vhagar" was hilarious. Vhagar is a girl, Greg 😜 She is a badass granny.
The dragon rider at the end was having the time of his life,it looked like he was about to crash right into the red keep.
Jaces conversation with his mother is such foreshadowing. Peak dialogue
Loved this episode! Really felt for Jace - you could see the tears in his eyes and he's right in a sense. I hated that he wasn't around to help with the dragonseeds - it was HIS idea. Really loved the parallel between Hugh/Vermithor and Sliverwing/Ulf. Hugh and Vermithor seemed to challenge one another while both Silverwing and Ulf kinda submitted. Very cool. Loved Aemond backing down - 100% it would've been over for him. The last shot of Rhaenyra and all the dragons? Fantastic. I wish things moved a bit faster this season, but here we are.
Silverwing was so fucking cute with the booping.
For a second I thought she was just knocking him away from her eggs.
Nah it was Mushroom's idea but Jace then saw it through but yeh Jace calling the bastards "mongrels" was a bit weird given the fact that he himself is a bastard.
He and Rhaenyra are taking completely opposite perspectives on recruiting lowborn extramarital Targs. I get why he's upset, but they don't have many options here. Jace also seems to be embittered towards Myseria. Does he mistrust all common folk, or is that the product of being insulted for being the product of an affair himself?
@@manvirshergill1739 he said it because he knows he's a bastard. I think that's how he sees himself as well.
I do like how Daemon and Rhaenyra have been separated. Rhaenyra has to actually rule now that he’s gone and stand on her own. Meanwhile Daemon has to decide what kind of man he is and who he’s fighting for.
Wait who’s red dragon was that at end of episode
@@shanedalton9465Prob bronze fury Vermithor if you’re talking about the 3 dragons he’s old as hell so he’s prob rusted down a bit (bronze) he just looked smaller cause they prob wanted without question to kill Vhagar there by sneaking him.
That kid was smart though, because he solved Damon’s problem for him. You have a bad reputation we’re not gonna pretend otherwise I’m just gonna make them decide to follow you anyway and they’re gonna respect me more for being honest and not trying to sell you as something you’re not.
That’s really the only way to sell this
Aemond sending the Kingsuard that Aegon anointed to the wall was interesting.
He does not have the patience for lickspittles lol
It was smart of aemond they were useless as kingsguards they were incompetent.
I LOVE OSCAR TULLY!!! HE IS A STRAIGHT UP G!!!🤺🤺🤺🔥🌋
Guess we know where the CGI budget went lol. sheeeeeesh
Silverwing really said “hey there, wanna go get tacos?”
Also, watching Daemon get dog walked by a child was SO satisfying
"The idea.....
that we control the Dragons...
is an ILLUSION."
They are a power man never should have trifled with
Watching this season I often think of Viserys's words, how true
Yep. It's clear now that it's not that Targaryans control dragons; dragons choose to serve Targaryans. They pick who they want.
Bullshit
said Viserys calmly...
It really feels like Larys is pushing the Maester to push Aegon because he knows he is in danger. He knows it is painful for Aegon, but he has to get better.
They came to JUMP Vhagar!
lol foreshadowing maybe or not, that is how they beat him up when he was young they jumped his ass but didnt kill him, it be cool if vhagar loses an eye too
@@cristianbejarano1516All they need to do is snatch out Aemond’s other eye Kill Bill style & he’s done.
Right?😂😂 @@sproductionsinc
That end scene was INCREDIBLE
Mad respect to the dragon 🐉 designers, vfx and sound effect team.
Man, the contrast of Baela saying to Corlys "I am of Blood and fire. Driftmark must pass to salt and see", then Alyn saying to him "I am of salt and sea. I yearn for nothing else." I loved that.
Hugh is the son of Saera Targaryen-a aunt of Viserys- who was caught with having relations with 3 close male companions. She proposed to her father Jaeharys I that she’d marry all three of them like Maegor did with his wives-which was exactly the wrong button to push with the king since Maegor murdered two of his brothers. After this and after she tried to steal a dragon he killed one of her lovers in a duel while forcing her to watch then tried to send her to become a silent sister (which was mentioned as likely being an empty threat). She escaped and fled to Essos and may still be alive. I’m sure if she heard she’d be laughing hysterically at one of her sons claiming her father’s dragon.
on top of the funniest thing that her own kins are fighting amongst themselves for the throne.
Saera was pretty much bad from the get go; a narcissist who had a taste for cruel practical jokes and who was disliked or mistrusted by all of her siblings.
She was also known to be selfish, cruel and manipulative, often pitting men against each other for her amusement and mistreating or physically abusing servants.
Dude, I loved Oscar. He reminded me of Jon snow, and frankly, I feel like he's someone Daemon needs because he calls him out in subtle yet open ways. That kid is smart, I also loved how big vermathor looked in comparison to the other dragon that was sleeping. Man, it's getting so good thanks for the reaction, my lord rejects
I like how playful some of the dragons are in HOTD.
Rhaenyra really said pull up at the end lmao
“How To Train Your Dragon” realism difficulty settings.
Vermithor be like: "I am not taking any PANSIES"
cant believe that little boy checked Daemon like that
This show has always had some boss children
I suspect Larys actually wasn't sure that the rumor about Seasmoke was true, and he didn't want to pass on something he can't confirm (unless it's part of his own misdirection). He left it to Ironrod to report it if he wants. And the dragon that came by right then was a different one, which they had no whispers about.
Silverwing waking up like "what is one of Vermithors snack doing stepping in my eggs? And immediately going I smell Targaryen you woke me you are taking me out for a ride." Had me dying.
I love the completely different dragon personalities lol. Vermithor made hugh earn his respect while silverwing was on more of a "whats up fucking loser!!WELL??!!?? Get on!!" Type vibe.
How come I'm only realizing this now... Abubakar Salim (Alyn of Hull) and Amanda Collin (Jeyne Arryn) are also together as the android leads of Ridley Scott's Raised by Wolves. Amanda has this otherworldy, almost eldritch beauty and she plays a 'wolf in sheep's clothing' so well.
This hit my heartstrings as one who loves the reign of Jaeheryis and Alyssanne. A huge tale of love, heroes, dragons. Just incredible Targaryens that almost the whole of Westeros adored and loved. These two were the very best of the whole dynasty. So many Targaryens are just the reason for their own destruction but Jaeheryis and Alysanne lived such a huge life and so many tales come from their reign. Silverwing was Queen Alysannes, and Vermithor was the Kings. They are just as beautiful as I could have hoped for!!!
That will be the next series I think
@@SE-gs6gdno lol
I don't think so many targs are reason for their own destruction, there's more to it it's more complicated
I LOVED how Oscar Tully played on the Riverlords hatred of Daemon and got them to follow Rhaenyra by insulting Daemon. You can see Daemon understand what Oscar is doing when he tells him to mind his tongue. Great stuff.
58:11 are we forgetting that Daemon is in harrenhal to get an army that Rhaenyra does not have? Yes, she got two dragons and that is a big deal, but she does not have an army to hold castles at this point, that is all Daemon. And Riverlands is a place where it is difficult to get everyone to ally behind the same cause. This is not just about him grieving and having character development, the most essential thing for Rhaenyra is an army right now.
What a fucking set up for the finale! 10/10 episode
Oscar is my favorite character this season and 2nd favorite in house of the dragon, he can take care of himself, he doesn't back down, he holds his own side accountable, I love all that.
2nd it might just be me and that's ok, I feel like Jace is going to do something dangerous, I'm not sure what or to whom, I just feel like he is going to start something he can't finish.
Agreed
Lord Oscar don’t play
Jace better not try to fight vhagar 1v1 he’ll be eaten whole😭 he needs to calm down and trust his mother.
I do feel for him though, because potentially once he’s crowned king the lowborn dragonriders with silver hair like hugh and ulf who have much larger dragons could press their claims for his throne. Rhaenrya gave them dragons before gaining their full loyalty, she mistakenly trusted them to be as loyal as addam which isnt wise since they all had very different upbringings
@@LightofJoshua yep
@@MikeNowary 🤔
Oscar was the mvp of the episode. I love that the dragons pick their riders. I believe Rhaenyra told Ulf to go to Kingslanding to draw Aemond out so they could ambush him. That last shot of Rhaenyra and the 3 dragons waiting on Aemond gave me life. Loved your reaction
not very good one now he knows what to expect
Hugh Hammer honestly in all the scenes he's been in looks so much like a Witcher.
Rhaenyra with the 3 dragons at the end giving the ultimate “come outside, we not gonna jump you!” energy 😂
Jace just predicted one of the dragonseed’s fate with that talk with rhaenyra 😂
The way she says “Vermithor” in Valaryian reminds me of the way Angelina Jolie says “Beowulf” in the the animated movie.
Indd, the fact that we get this level of scale and incredible CG on television is something else.
Young dude was well schooled by his grandfather before his death.
Huge dragon dogfight next week, with Rhaena swooping in on Sheepstealer to turn the tide!!!!!
Calling it now.
29:16 “OMG, OMG, this is so horrible!!” While laughing manically is my HotD ringtone. Sums it up in such a hilarious way 🤣
The bronze fury is my favorite since they most likely won't do the cannibal. Great episode boys.
This was fire. Like holy shizer it was good. Episode seven is the new episode nine
Greg and John should dye their hair Targaryen blonde for finale
This episode was literally 🔥 especially the last couple of minutes
I knew hugh and ulf were being set up to be the guys (not because of the books, it was just obvious due to screentime) and yet when it happened i was still so excited and happy lol
now i kinda wish that they focused on 1 or 2 more of the bastards in the previous episodes so we would have someone else to root for during the dragon claiming scene, only to have them die.
Love love LOVE this episode! The new Lord Tully putting Daemon in check was a great scene. I hope Rhaena claims the wild dragon. I'm so happy that Ulf claimed Silverwing but I don't trust Hugh Hammer. There is something about him that I don't trust. Once again Ser Simon was a bright spot in the episode. My favorite episode this season!
it's the exact opposite for me , I am happy for Hugh and I don't trust Ulf😂😂
I know how you feel, he lost his daughter and i feel like he’ll lose his wife too and if that happens he wouldnt have anything to fight for and if somehow it could be perceived as the blacks fault he might betray his queen😭 and knowing its game of thrones im scared something tragic like that could happen
Syrax with the dragon trashtalk😂
Daemon is my favorite character but Oscar Tully gagging him so hard was peak 😂
John has the patience of a SAINT the way Greg kept interrupting him. Especially during the breakdown 😩
Like any grandmother, Silverwing is just happy that one of her grandchildren came to visit her for once - Ulf is the favourite now
That Vermithor audition was both terrifying and awesome.
that ending gave me chills.
Last 15 minutes were just astonishing television
Can’t wait to see rhaena claiming sheepstealer!
Thank you for getting these out so quick, I don’t watch live because my anxiety makes me weird about these kind of dramas, but once I watch the reaction here I know what’s coming and can enjoy the full experience. ❤
Vermithor is like a cat and Silverwing is like a dog 😂
I think Larys don't want to deliver the news to Aemond because he despise him. He was clearly making an effort to bring back Aegon.
I enjoyed seeing Vermithor and Silverwing.
This episode was so great and crazy! So excited for the Finale! 👍
Daemon being humbled by Oscar. Oscar is a🐐
