    I think Aegon takes the walk to the same melody (just a march variation) that was used for Alicent entering the throne roon in a green dress, not the Viseris' one from the last episode. I assume it's the "Greens" theme now, as it was all over this entire episode in bits and pieces.

    Modern readers/watchers are kinda confused about The White Worm’s nickname-they mistake it as a put-down. I think GRRM probably means it in the Old English sense, when Wyrm was an interchangeable term for serpents and other dragonlike creatures in Old English poetry, so she’s a white dragon in this story of dragons of many colors (this is not the first time GRRM has used Old English in ASOIAF-I believe that “warg” is also taken from Old English, but my Old English is super rusty, and I won’t be offended if someone corrects me on this one). As for my source for White Worm/Wyrm, please see Ken Russell’s wonderful movie, which explores the sexual and historical context better than I can here. Y’all should just see that movie anyway.

He's later one of the assassins that holds one of Alicants (sp?) Children hostage and ultimately kills one. I believe this is a warning to this brutal slaying.

    The whole story so far is packed full of moments which, had they gone another way, would have stopped the Dance and probably would have led to the Targs continuing on and ruling forever. The fact that it was a dream sent to Viserys that triggered everything, isn't lost on me. If he hadn't had that prophetic dream, he wouldn't have pushed for a son, his wife would have survived and the Hightowers wouldn't have become such power players. Makes you wonder if the gods did this, small consequential nudges to ensure the end of the Targ dynasty.

    You're right about the dissonance, but the interval is a tritone, not a second.

    I see the rat that keeps appearing around the castle as the network of spies always around in plain sight.

    Anyone know why Heleana was staring at Aegon just before he was crowned then looked away as he was being crowned?

    I think the "beast beneath the boards" refers to the rats and by extension Blood and Cheese. But it most definitely could've been the dragon.

    As a non book reader I had a feeling that end scene was not in the book. I didn’t like it personally. Would have had it ended with the sword raise. That’s just me though.

    The foo feti$h scene is an excellent illustration: media doesn't have to have gratuitous se*ual violence in order to be transgressive & feel like a gross violation. The interaction between Larys and Alicent was not consensual, it was deeply uncomfortable to watch. That's enough to sell the idea it was Not Ok. Maybe it's a weird thing to offer praise for, but I appreciate the nuanced approach.
    TL;DR you don't need to go full Tarintino when filming SA, trust your storytelling and actors enough to sell the SVU part of the script.

    Beast beneath the boards was not a reference to the ending. That comes into play later in the series.

      Yeah I don't get how people think it's that obvious. For one, there were no boards, it was stone.
