Ned looks like he's seen a young Robert again. He wants to do what's right for Gendry, but he also wants to protect him. The truth could get him killed.
+Meadow Peace I especially noticed his look at 2:03. It's really like he felt confused while looking at Gendry, he has seen young Robert's face in his features.
Mauna same he was the best😢 tbh i can't watch his death scene, i was so shock and sad when i saw it for the first. Like i was depressed for several days and i still can't get over it. His death, the red wedding and Hodor's death was so hard for me
I love that line and look after when he says “Look at me...” You can see Neds face go into a kind of shock and awe he doesn’t see Gendry anymore He sees Robert in his prime Young faced Broad shouldered Ready to take on the world And then you instantly see the fear for him come across his face as well as to what this could mean......... Absolutely amazing scene
I love how troubled Ned looked in a split second. Like he had the feeling he was seeing his old friend again. Book! Brienne was extremely shocked the first time she saw Gendry because she briefly believed he was Renly coming back from the dead. Both of them are spitting images of young Robert, and Cat identifies Mya Stone as Robert's bastard daughter as soon as she looks at her.
7 years and only now have I realized that the reason Ned looks like he just cracked the case when Gendry tells him his mother had blonde hair is because it means that, as Jon Arryn put it, "the seed is strong", and, like Robert, and unlike his mother, Gendry has the Baratheon black hair. This makes Ned realize that Cersei's children are almost certainly not Robert's. Of course, he didn't need to see Gendry to be sure of that, but it's the confirmation that gets him thinking seriously about it.
TheTotalmuffin in fact there is the infant girl a son from before he was to marry and gendry so three black haired children. And that no one in Roberts line had a not black haired child from a blonde ever. Renly and Stannis are supposed to be dark as well.
So Unsure Yea both Stannis and Renly have black hair is well.This is based off of real life since black hair is a dominant allele and blonde hair is recessive
Weirdest part of this scene is how Gendry totally hears Ned's wield a sword comment and doesn't immediately go "Uh I'd quite like to do that now actually."
Well he likes being a blacksmith. And becoming some hired sword that could easily die in some war is not that glamorous, he does not even have any training and starting that age would make him wore than many.
Spyro Fan He probably doesn't trust highborns. He would just rather keep to himself and live than be a part of the game of thrones for no good reason...
+Sulthan14 16 that we know of. For all we know, there could be dozens more that we don't know of.

The confirmed sixteen were very lucky guesses, based on timing and such.

will be my end but Jon's legitimization can only be done by a king. Now I agree, that the tyrells and martells would most likely want to support the targaryens seeing as they were their supporters during the rebellion. But before the white walkers come across the wall, I want their to be a true dynasty change.
Asad the great The North may have become a part of the Seven Kingdoms once more, but I that's only as long as the Boltons remain in-charge. The Great Northern Conspiracy revolves around installing Jon "Stark" as the King in the North. And even if continues to be a part of the Seven Kingdoms, I think that Jon would still be considered a Stark since Robb legitimized him when he was still a king. And now that Jon is free from the Night's Watch and can actively take part in the War, even Stannis can legitimize him (assuming that Stannis is still alive in the books). Stannis had already offered to do so, and would be happy to extend the offer again if it means that the North would join him in his fight against the Boltons and the Lannister-Tyrell "alliance".
will be my end when did robb stark legitimize Jon Snow? And Jon is suppose to have died by stabbing from the night's watch. Stannis may be alive but he doesn't really have much men (if any) and he killed off his family in the process so doesn't have much to live for. However, seeing as he is a Baratheon, he could rally some support and maybe take Gendry as his own (no one really knows Gendry so he could become his new child). And the Tyrells are pretty pissed from having their children arrested due to Cersei making deals with the High Sparrow. And Dorne may get pissed if Trystane Martell gets harmed from the backlash of Marcella's death.
*From the books:* *Gendry* :He asked me questions is all, m’lord. *Ned* :What sort of questions? *Gendry* :How was I, and was I well treated, and if I liked the work, and stuff about my mother. Who she was and what she looked like and all. *Ned* :What did you tell him? *Gendry* :She died when I was little. She had yellow hair, and sometimes she used to sing to me, I remember. She worked in an alehouse. *Ned* :Did Lord Stannis question you as well? *Gendry* :The bald one? No, not him. He never said no word, just glared at me, like I was some raper who done for his daughter.
Bibash Budha I find it so cool that Arryn (man who raised Robert as a child), Ned (his best friend since childhood) and Stannis (his own brother) are instantly able to see how gendry is the spitting image of Robert when he was younger
1:48 - the subtle detail of Ned looking at Gendry's head of black hair after he says his mother had yellow hair. As the audience, we can see that Ned is figuring it out right in front of us. Season 1 is a masterpiece
dracohalo117 Robert would have since he thinks Cersei's kids are his. Ned would have to tell him, protect Gendry during the purge of Lannisters that Robert would commence after learning this since he ain't one to get cucked, find a way to train Gendry in being a King as Gendry was only a blacksmith and make sure no one finds out. That's a tall order, for anybody
That's what's great about the show, every time it seemed like something good is about to happen and the show hurts me again. I really expected Ned to take Gendry under his wings and forge a warrior/protagonist out of him.... nope.
But now this routine has become too obvious, everything goes bad and people already learned how to deal with it. Now i would be surprised if actually something good happens. So now stop bad events and make some heroic events. For example i would be really satisfied if Gendry shows up again and maybe takes controll of the Stormlands ad a Lord, much like Jon is doing for the North. Indeed season 6 is surprising me every episode become once more the series has become unpredictable and that's what i like
Frank -97 While it's true what you've said that we are on our guard, but still, the way they do it now is very sloppy, e.g Stannis, Roose, I think they could have done better and gotten more out of it.

+Dinglie Danglie Doodle Season 6 Was the weakest season Imo. Too many plot holes and meaningless deaths. Seems to me the show writer realized they had no clue where some characters were headed so they just threw them off a cliff
@@gothic3theageofwar565 Now that they made heroic events guess what? Everyone bitches. This is why there's no winning for the show runners. For me, I'm the happiest mofo alive that they made the show. Imo seasons 1-6 are some of tbe best television in history. And 7 has its moments and episodes. I'll never regret this show nor how it was created. It could have been silly in someone else's hands
Check out Mark Addy, the a tor who played Robert, when he was in his 20s. Even though he's paler and heavier, it;s the shape, look and colour of the eyes and the nose, chin and mouth that look like they are father and son.
That's the reason he died, he was too good. And even his daughter got banged by the bastard he saved here 😂 little finger whom he trusted also tried his way with his widow and other daughter after he died, being good screwed him over in every way.
King Robert would have found a purpose in his life if he had a chance to meet Gendry. The two had so much in common, being a father to the boy would have helped immensely.
@@K1ng1995 Then Cersei threatened to kill her if she ever enter their home and Robert likely decided to keep his distance from all his bastards from that day on since he knew Cersei definitely would go through with that threat.
@@goatlover6312 Maybe that was when Robert really started going downhill, the sadness of not being a father to his true born children because he must've had some clue something was wrong with his children. I honestly believe that if Robert had met Gendry in the show, and in the books if Maya, Gendry, and Edric all lived in King's Landing and given the surname Baratheon Robert would've been a much better king
I think Gendry’s mother having yellow hair while he has black is an important detail. It shows how dominant the Baratheon trait of black of hair is and only further supports Ned’s suspicions later that Roberts children aren’t his own.
Something I have noticed that somemight missed is the blonde hair of Gendry's mother. Its implied that no matter the mother, Baratheons always inherit dark hair. I think that was one of the hints.
+B-poptosis How can a bastard has a better claim than a wife and mother of kings? Unless the R+C=G is true that is Cerci being Gendry's mother. Yes she had a 4th child. Infact a firstborn "a black-haired beauty" as she said in S01 E02 but he "passed away" because she didn't want Robert to have an heir. She loved him so much (and how can a mother hate her firstborn!?) she didn't have him killed and she couldn't get far from him, so she would come disguised and sing to him "she had yellow hair". A yellow haired whore? That's unique. Look how Ned seemed very surprised when Gendry started talking about his mother.
Can we just appreciate how trusting he is of his knights. He just told the single most important information that could have ended the entire series and he did it without even thinking of the consequences. Respect is earned gentlemen/ladies.
I love how the comments stagger from 2 years ago just after season seven finished up, to 2 days ago, when 8x02 aired and the Gendrya fandom celebrated!!
The only thing that ever bothered me was the lack of physical portrayal of the baratheons. They were huge men, tall and jacked. Not short like Robert and Gendry, or feminine like renley
Ned was a perfect example of GRR Martin making fantasy realistic. He was a honourable and kind soul but he wasn't ruthless enough. In real life ,heroes who have honor and do the right thing don't always live to see the end of the story. One of his biggest mistakes? Trusting people who used his trust against him so they could remove him. Simple fact; those who were smart would see him or anyone else as a serious threat. Ned was ONLY alive as long as Robert was alive. And it's not impossible his death was murder.
If Gendry does become legitimized as a Baratheon, why would he want a servant to make him his weapons and armor when he can make his own by himself. Gendry would be the epitome of the self-made man starting as an unacknowledged bastard to becoming the new lord of Storm's End. That would be an epic turn in his story!
“Let them look” is such an underrated line. Ned knows that what he is doing is honorable. He doesn’t care who sees him because he has nothing to hide. This is the precise attitude that leads to his demise.
"If the day comes when that boy would rather wield a sword than forge one, you send him to me!" Oh Ned, Yes Gendry is now Forging weapons and is defending Winterfell! Long Live Gendry! The last Baratheon!!! Ned Spoke it into existence
Between this episode and when Stannis met Gendry it proved that when Ned met Robert’s “children” at Winterfell at least one child should have had some hint of Robert in him. They both knew Gendry was Robert’s in one meeting.
When the shop owner speaks to Ned, his voice is nothing but submissive. But when he speaks to Gendry, his voice is suddenly stentorian. Just one of those wonderful details in early GoT I sorely miss...
1:16 to 1:18 you can see Sean Bean's thumb shaking. Common with many actors and public speakers, even the really good ones. I have done public speaking for five years, I teach weapons in the military and teach every day, but my body will still give away my nerves in small subtle ways like that.

The casting really was spectacular. As soon as Ned says “Look at me” you see the same fire in Gendry’s eyes as you do Robert’s.
Ayeeee Ned is meeting his soon to be son in law.
Hahahhaha yep! :D
Wat do you mean
More like his son in row.
Yeah.... I don't think so....
S.S .A. Him and Sansa apparently.
Ned was such a smart and wise character, I wish he hadn't died
What ned dies? What shit he is the protagonist
My favourite character ever ❤
Martin does have his reason why wanted Ned dead. Because his implying that honour is worthless.
That's the reason he died, he was too good. And even his daughter got banged by the bastard he saved here 😂 little finger whom he trusted also tried his way with his widow and other daughter after he died, being good screwed him over in every way.
Wise yes, smart not really. Well he is not dumb but also not smart enough to keep up with the others who play the game
King Robert would have found a purpose in his life if he had a chance to meet Gendry. The two had so much in common, being a father to the boy would have helped immensely.
In the books Roberts oldest bastard was a girl and according to other characters when Robert was around her when she was young he seemed "better"
@@K1ng1995 Mya Stone
@@gajatana4630 That's her name thank you stupid phone :)
@@K1ng1995 Then Cersei threatened to kill her if she ever enter their home and Robert likely decided to keep his distance from all his bastards from that day on since he knew Cersei definitely would go through with that threat.
@@goatlover6312 Maybe that was when Robert really started going downhill, the sadness of not being a father to his true born children because he must've had some clue something was wrong with his children. I honestly believe that if Robert had met Gendry in the show, and in the books if Maya, Gendry, and Edric all lived in King's Landing and given the surname Baratheon Robert would've been a much better king
I like how his eyes and eyebrows genuinely resemble Robert so much
“There’s nothing to forgive.”
I miss Ned.
Aww, look at Gendry, meeting his future father-in-law.
And here we are. Ned would approve.
Winter is not the only thing that's coming
What utter nonsense. They just fucked. If this meant marriage, Gendry - or Mya Stone as the oldest bastard in the books - would have been the heir.
I think Gendry’s mother having yellow hair while he has black is an important detail. It shows how dominant the Baratheon trait of black of hair is and only further supports Ned’s suspicions later that Roberts children aren’t his own.
The fact that we never got to see Gendry wearing a stag helmet in season 8 is a tragedy.
Something I have noticed that somemight missed is the blonde hair of Gendry's mother. Its implied that no matter the mother, Baratheons always inherit dark hair. I think that was one of the hints.
In the books it says no matter how far back Ned went, the gold faltered before the coal
Even Rhaenys Targaryen got the Baratheon black hair from her mother. And the Valyrian genes are already strong af.
1:55 "look at me......are you talking about BESSIE?".
"If the day ever comes when that boy would rather wield a WARHAMMER than forge one, you send him to me".
I still think Gendry should have played a more important role in the show.. Too bad this part of the story just kinda died
Cersei's queen, and Gendry has a better claim to the throne. He might be back next season...
+B-poptosis How can a bastard has a better claim than a wife and mother of kings? Unless the R+C=G is true that is Cerci being Gendry's mother. Yes she had a 4th child. Infact a firstborn "a black-haired beauty" as she said in S01 E02 but he "passed away" because she didn't want Robert to have an heir. She loved him so much (and how can a mother hate her firstborn!?) she didn't have him killed and she couldn't get far from him, so she would come disguised and sing to him "she had yellow hair". A yellow haired whore? That's unique. Look how Ned seemed very surprised when Gendry started talking about his mother.
Oh he will ^^
Mamitous that is the dumbest theory I've ever read.
Steph S "unless ... is true" yes it is dumb but it is out there :)
if stannis is dead, Gendry is the true heir of the seven kingdoms
+fra0006 In any case his claim is certainly better than Tommen's.
SultanRoyal yes
+fra0006 he doesn't exist in the show, besides the tagaryens are no longer the true heirs, only baratheon.
+Javier Lopez you do know that the baratheon claim on the throne is through their grandmother's targaryen blood
+Javier Lopez a bastard cannot take the crown, only if a noble legitimize him. Which I doubt, but he will appear in season 6 for sure.
Can we just appreciate how trusting he is of his knights. He just told the single most important information that could have ended the entire series and he did it without even thinking of the consequences. Respect is earned gentlemen/ladies.
Jory isn't a knight, he's Captain of Ned's household guard
Ned didn't have knights. Northmen weren't really into the whole knighthood thing.
I love how the comments stagger from 2 years ago just after season seven finished up, to 2 days ago, when 8x02 aired and the Gendrya fandom celebrated!!
In the books, Gendry seems to have inherited more of Stannis' personality, despite having Robert's physical appearance.
The only thing that ever bothered me was the lack of physical portrayal of the baratheons. They were huge men, tall and jacked. Not short like Robert and Gendry, or feminine like renley
"This is fine work"
"Wait till you hear what these hands can do to your daughter..."
0:40 moment i realized that i have been calling him 'jendry' all this while...
aliesneo Curse you letter G!!!
I have a son, you have a daughter, we'll join our houses.
- King Robert
I'm so glad Ned met his future son-in-law before he passed ❤
"Look at me" it was like he was looking at a young Robert, He knew right away.
Susie P "I have a son, you have a daughter. We'll join our houses" Robert in S01E01
@@FlowerTrollSan it's done, well at least the sex part, lol
@@joelmiller1995 Lol, yeah, finally!
Ned was a perfect example of GRR Martin making fantasy realistic.
He was a honourable and kind soul but he wasn't ruthless enough. In real life ,heroes who have honor and do the right thing don't always live to see the end of the story.
One of his biggest mistakes? Trusting people who used his trust against him so they could remove him.
Simple fact; those who were smart would see him or anyone else as a serious threat.
Ned was ONLY alive as long as Robert was alive. And it's not impossible his death was murder.
Even though it makes for a lot less of a story, in reality it's better to die while still honorable than stay alive by being dishonorable.
It’s the “modernistic” characters vs “postmodern” characters. A clash between artistic cultures.
on the other hand, no-one wants to follow dishonourable people. I doubt the Starks would've been so powerful if they were weasels like Littlefinger.
Ned: " King Roberts bastsrd son.. "
1 sec after
Robert: " haahaaa "
2:01 that face is Robert's face during Robert's Rebellion
Gendry's hot af :D
Literally, stands by fire all day
Paul Thoresen 😂
"There's no tellin' who has eyes where."
He is later stabbed in the eye.
Ned: “how many royal bastards am I supposed to keep a secret????”
“There’s nothing to forgive” Said by Ned and then his nephew 😭
the tiny bit of Roberts cackle at the end is perfect
Ned saw the fury in his eyes
So this is how the prime Robert looks like when he battle with Regar..
Robert waa just taller and more muscular.
If we base it on Mark Addy's face, then young Robert could've looked a bit like Sam Worthington
Prime Robert was twice his size, almost as big as Gregor Clegane and was around 6'3.
@@H.K.5 gregor was like 6ft 7 ish
@@nicmagtaan1132 I was talking about Robert.
Ned was such a good hearted and humble man on such a high position. Well deserved kings hand.
If Gendry does become legitimized as a Baratheon, why would he want a servant to make him his weapons and armor when he can make his own by himself. Gendry would be the epitome of the self-made man starting as an unacknowledged bastard to becoming the new lord of Storm's End. That would be an epic turn in his story!
Grady P. Brown welp you’re right congratulations 😂👍🏼
I miss Gendry so much !! hope we get to see him in season 6
TheAlpahks well season seven was it haha
1:25 fly crawling on Ned's arm.
The fly deserves a Grammy award.
My god, I didn't even see that. Good eye man.
"Wish we could turn back time, to the good old days" - Twenty One pilots
Post Season 8 finale.
"Gendry!!! gods, what a stupid name"- Robert Baratheon.
2:03 Ned: Gods, he's definitely Robert's son
"If the day ever comes when that boy would rather wield a sword than forge one, you send him to me."
Good old Ned ready to adopt another son.
Gendry didn’t know what was coming from the Starks... if you know what I mean *wink* *wink*😉
Ned meets his future son-in-law.
Damn right!
Technically hes met three
Tyrion and Ramsay also count
When did he meet Ramsay
Meanwhile on the show, legend has it that Gendry is remaking Castaway, except instead of a ball, he upgraded to a bulls-helm.
Meanwhile on the show, Gendry is banging Ned's daughter.
If Gendry had only known Ned was his Future Father in law😂😂
He wasnt.
“Let them look” is such an underrated line.
Ned knows that what he is doing is honorable. He doesn’t care who sees him because he has nothing to hide.
This is the precise attitude that leads to his demise.
"Did you find something".
"Yeah. The future lord of the Stormlands and Storm's End."
Gendry is gona be a hell of a warrior when he grows up and Ned knows it .
Everyone misses Ned, the most honorable man in Westeros, and that was his downfall
When you think about it, Ned's death set in motion a chain of events that would eventually lead to Gendry inserting his iron rod into his daughter
😂😂
Sad that we never saw Gendry wearing the helmet he made. It looked rad as fuck
The moment Ned saw his eyes, he knew...the resemblance was too strong.
He was pounding the steel when Ned saw him, now he's pounding his daughter.
"If the day comes when that boy would rather wield a sword than forge one, you send him to me!"
Oh Ned, Yes Gendry is now Forging weapons and is defending Winterfell! Long Live Gendry! The last Baratheon!!! Ned Spoke it into existence
Oh, hey, look! It's the rightful king of the Seven Kingdoms! Oh, it's going to Bran because he met an old dude that was a tree? Okay.
Ned:"This is fine work"
Gendry:"Like your daughter"
Ned:Huh?
Gendry:"You can have it"
It is so jarring watching season 1 clips after finishing the show. It’s like watching an alternate reality.
Never in Ned's mind cross the tought that this kid will be his younger daughter first man.
Between this episode and when Stannis met Gendry it proved that when Ned met Robert’s “children” at Winterfell at least one child should have had some hint of Robert in him. They both knew Gendry was Robert’s in one meeting.
Ned would have chased down Gendry all over Winterfell with his greatsword Ice if he found out he smashed his daughter! :))
looks of Renly, strength of Robert and mannerisms of Stannis. Baratheon through and through.
Gendry's eyes really do look like Roberts
Gendry was always good at pounding things.
When the shop owner speaks to Ned, his voice is nothing but submissive. But when he speaks to Gendry, his voice is suddenly stentorian. Just one of those wonderful details in early GoT I sorely miss...
Ned sure has a knack for discovering bastard sons.
Eddard trying to adopt another bastard left by those close to him.
1:16 to 1:18 you can see Sean Bean's thumb shaking. Common with many actors and public speakers, even the really good ones. I have done public speaking for five years, I teach weapons in the military and teach every day, but my body will still give away my nerves in small subtle ways like that.
I think he almost forgot his line or something
Chris Uremovich what an observation dude
I think he just realised why his foster-father Jon Arryn died.
Gendry Baratheon!!!!
"Look at me."
Ned recalled how Robert looked like when they were merely swinging their weapons..
Gendry is so funny, he was like 'your daughter calls me daddy too' and stayed like this
