It's funny because the Kingsguard with Aegon were still technically doing their job. You could kinda argue Criston was too, defending the queen dowager, but they left everyone else alone. I don't think I ever seen the Red Keep that empty many times or at all.
Rhaenys IMMEDIATELY looked deadass at Daemon when everyone else was speculating on who would be capable of killing Jaehaerys. The Queen Who Never Was be STAYING on Daemon's neck. 💯💯💯
My issue is Criston was sooo mad that Rhaenyra wanted him to be friends with benefits… is that not what he is now with Alicent?! He’s doing too much. lol
he almost cost her ascendence to the throne. scratch that, his incel rage was the catalyst, both in the books and the show. yes, i read the books. obligatory nerd emoji lol
one of the most interesting things about the scene between cole and arryk is that, cole is able to project his feelings of "i've defiled the kings guard" onto arryk for his dirtied cloak until arryk says "i'll remedy the error" which subsequently causes cole to blow up because he can't remedy his own error. arryk can clean his cloak but cole can't bring the child he was supposed to protect back to life lmaooo
Olay the guy who murdered the baby was City Watch, glorified police! The writing was so good to make him so tough beating up on babies and small folk but folding in 3 seconds when he’s on his own brilliant writing 😂🤣
I just unsubscribed a BUNCH of commentators so I can find you faster. You bring the realness without the stupidity of other folks. No ignorant a$$ statements and you take your time to put up something I’m not embarrassed to share with my true book reading nerd friends. Keep it up and well done.
When Otto called Sir Cristin Cole's plan a prank, I guffawed. Cuz that's what yall did, a damn children's prank, we'll pretend one twin is the other twin, boy what? lol.
Thank you so much for bringing up how Sir Criston Cole should have been executed after the wedding. This man commits MURDER at the royal wedding of the heir to the throne and you're telling me his head isn't chopped off faster than Ned Stark's was? Joke of a monarchy
Alicent probly lied for him. He also holds a higher position in society than Joffrey. By the customs of Westeros, and given the soft rule of Vizzy and "his forebearance", it would be less believable for Cole to be punished. "OMG where are the guards, someone stop him". Bitch, he IS the guards. If regular ass cops aren't held accountable in our world, how you gonna expect better from the medieval secret service?
They don’t necessarily want you to feel good or bad, they’re fleshing out his character because even the most horrible people still have relatable moments, storytelling in media seems like it always has to be black and white/good and bad to appeal to an audience
Olay’s recaps are better than watching the episodes. It’s like the best kind of gossip session and no one gets hurt because it’s about fictional characters. 😂
Rhys Ifan (Otto Hightower) was SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH in this episode!!!!!!!!! The absolute bewilderment on his face...basically confirming that Viserys hated Aegon on his way out the door.... GIRL!!!! I needa rewatch that whole ass scene
I agree! Otto Hightower's expressions and dialogue totally exposed his utter disgust, shame, and regret for helping make Aegon the King! I've re-watched that scene over and over about 10 times!!!
They didnt like him but they also didnt teach him! Rhaenyra was raised by her dad to be a decent ruler and person. What did Alicent and Otto teach Aegon? The results speak for themselves!
@moustik31 To add to this, they didn't teach him anything BECAUSE they didn't like him. They pulled spectacularly dumb, spiteful moves and it cost a whole bloodline AND a huge chunk of the realm. Now I'm thinking I underestimated Viserys, because at least under him, the realm was FUNCTIONING.
@@EmpressJusticeTarot Yes, it was functioning because Viserys learned under Jaehaerys. He cleared the path for Viserys to have a calm reign and Viserys just made sure it stayed that way. The Hightowers ruined it by being manipulative and sneaky.
Otto f*cked around and found out lol. But I swear! I’ve never hated a character as much as I hate Criston Cole. Every time I see him breath in the show my eye twitches
Good recap, but you’re sleeping on Mysaria. She’s the one who warned Erryk his brother was coming pretending to be him. I don’t think she just gonna sail away to Essos. She’s too powerful
And he definitely would have told too. I feel like Cheese slipped away though. He knows all the secret passageways. And I don’t remember seeing him hanging with everybody else.
Otto didn’t say he was gonna talk to Aemond. He said he was gonna go talk to Daeron, Alicent’s third son. I’m glad they’re finally mentioning this character!
The murderer was not a former member of the king's guard, but of the city watch (commonly called the Gold Cloaks, due to the fancy uniform Daemon gave him). He was a former cop who was bad enough as his job to get fired and to need to get a work as a butcher instead. He remained loyal to his former commander because cops could do anything they wanted back when Daemon was in charge of them.
That's it I'm calling HBO and max and demand they hire you for the house that dragons built with an awesome office with a cat playroom .Epic recap 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
With all this Assata slander, if you end up missing and i see Assata chillin in Cuba I'm taking Assata's side. Catching a stray just to have them casually catch strays is wild 😂 Seriously though, I don't even watch this show, but love you're breakdowns both of them are so good.
seriously at the end of that conversation otto was staring into the distance like he was thinking of places to move, that was the distinct vibe I got in the moment. Great acting and directing
Your reviews are so funny and insightful. It's like listening to the funniest and realest person you know, talking about the antics of a wider friend group, from the sympathetic to the trifling and everyone in between. It helps that we have pretty much the same thoughts (except mine aren't as funny).
Plotto's read of Aegon was chef's kiss level. He was in his Olivia Pope spin bag, got the small folks dragging Rhae Rhae and then the dumb dumb twins pushed the goodwill out the window like Jaime did Bran in the OG Thrones. Auntie Rhaenys knows her first cousin Daemon and that he ain't ish.
I think that Daemon hired those two idiots to get the job done specifically because they were idiots and would fumble the bag. I think that Daemon didn't care WHO was murdered because the point was psychological damage.
Now found your page. Your reviews are HILARIOUS 😭😭😂 on episode 4 and watching all of your reviews come up. Hearing the accent so assuming your Caribbean, new trini supporter here!! 🎉
I'm loving your reviews, it's so nice to have another black sister watching this show!!!! And this video in particular got me laughing out loud really hard!!! I LOVED IT!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don't know how this vid popped up on my timeline but I immediately subscribed. Best breakdown ever! And I hear the Caribbean accent in there.....😃🤣❤❤❤
Great recap as always. One small correction at 31:48 Otto said he wanted to go to old town(the Hightower’s crib) to advise Daeron not Aemond. Alicent had a third son with viserys named Daeron who hasn’t been seen or mentioned until this episode.
Another great video! Criston is quickly becoming my favorite hate watch character (but don't harass the actor!) Dude came from nothing to the top and I think that's definitely playing into his wild behavior. He's wayyyy above his station and is willing to do anything, no matter how stupid or sabotaging it might be because this is the most famous anyone from his family has ever reached. He's drowning in a storm of intrigue and all he can do is flail around and push people under so he can stay above for just one more second.
I love these reviews so much! Please keep going, it’s my thoughts exactlyyyyyyy. I didn’t read the books either, I just started in GOT season 3 and been hooked ever since. I was trying to wait to binge the season but I couldn’t wait any longer lol.
Cole: "Where were you when the prince was murdered?"
Arryk: "With the king. You know...because I'm a Kingsguard...."
😂😂😂😂😂💯
And Cole guarding that 🐱
Yea, that's what Arryk asked him..."Like ain't you the QueensGuard why you guarding the Queens Mom and not her"...
When Arryk turned it back on him and asked him why he isnt the guard for the actual queen. I loved it.
It's funny because the Kingsguard with Aegon were still technically doing their job. You could kinda argue Criston was too, defending the queen dowager, but they left everyone else alone. I don't think I ever seen the Red Keep that empty many times or at all.
Rhaenys IMMEDIATELY looked deadass at Daemon when everyone else was speculating on who would be capable of killing Jaehaerys. The Queen Who Never Was be STAYING on Daemon's neck. 💯💯💯
HBO needs to hire you to do bonus commentary, you are brilliant
I would pay to see that lol. Put it on the blue ray dvd lol.
My issue is Criston was sooo mad that Rhaenyra wanted him to be friends with benefits… is that not what he is now with Alicent?! He’s doing too much. lol
And that’s how you know this “my duty! my honor!” bullshit is just some passing post-nut clarity. Just the biggest simp in all of Westeros.
he almost cost her ascendence to the throne. scratch that, his incel rage was the catalyst, both in the books and the show. yes, i read the books. obligatory nerd emoji lol
"You want t be you're whore!?!?" ... He's such a frikkin pretentious hypocrite
I thought about that too... he is a total f boy at this point.
@SonderDAzeX He is so fkin petty, definitely a compelling villain tho xD
Sir Criston Audacity Cole made a pledge not to stick his pen in the company ink. Then immediately started smashing his way through the C-suite.
Remember when Viserys dropped and shattered the dragon figurine while flirting with Alicent?
one of the most interesting things about the scene between cole and arryk is that, cole is able to project his feelings of "i've defiled the kings guard" onto arryk for his dirtied cloak until arryk says "i'll remedy the error" which subsequently causes cole to blow up because he can't remedy his own error. arryk can clean his cloak but cole can't bring the child he was supposed to protect back to life lmaooo
Thank you for this breakdown, I figured it was something like that going on!
Ooh! Excellent analysis.
1:14 literally destroying what his father built. That's some heavy-handed symbolism.
His father loved that maquette more than him. It's the only time, I found Aegon relatable.
@@moustik31I hadn't thought of it like that 😳
True that. He was too busy building his barbie dreamhouse while the three more kids he wanted so bad were left neglected@moustik31
@@ledam2654this started when Otto pimped his daughter out. He and his family were sitting pretty and his ambition was the beginning of the end.
“Daemon Targaryen is just like the dragons” . Literally, like he’s more of a dragon than he is human
He's got two of them so yeah that checks out lol.
I now wholeheartedly believe the Aegon and Criston Cole are the ancestors of dumb and dumber...
😂
Got to be!!!
😂😂😂
I was mad too when Aegon broke his daddy's Legos. He worked on that more than he parent his 2nd set of kids😂
Not Legos 😂😂😂😂😂
Lmfao
8:30 is my fave scene Rhaenyra going "who could do such a thing" *awkward silence* Everyone sideeying Daemon
Daemon: . . . . . . Yes, Who amongst us could have possibly. . . . . . MOVING ON!
🤐
@@wheretheart6375 lol he definitely gave one of those looks like Larry David at the end of a Curb your Enthusiasm episode haha!
Olay the guy who murdered the baby was City Watch, glorified police! The writing was so good to make him so tough beating up on babies and small folk but folding in 3 seconds when he’s on his own brilliant writing 😂🤣
Honestly having Daemon hire a cop to commit child murder who then immediately folds under interrogation is the most realistic thing in here
f the police.

Ayee we love to see it, thank you!🙌🏾😂
Right. Was checking for this since yesterday 😊
I subscribed to this channel just so!
Yes! Omg! One of the reviews of the house of the dragon…
I just heard Cole’s nickname is Sir Incelot 😂😂😂
Doesn't really work considering he be getting all that royal kitty
When Otto called Sir Cristin Cole's plan a prank, I guffawed. Cuz that's what yall did, a damn children's prank, we'll pretend one twin is the other twin, boy what? lol.
SAME!
dawg!!!! i died!!!!😅😅😅
Lmao, even Criston thought it was a bad idea to make him Hand, you could tell from his face
Lol I like that Alicent feels the gods punishing her for riding sir christen’s Charlie. 😂😂😂😭😭💀
Otto so disgusted by his own kin he can’t even believe it 😂lmao he acted that part so well, I was disgusted with him and on behalf of him.
Thank you so much for bringing up how Sir Criston Cole should have been executed after the wedding. This man commits MURDER at the royal wedding of the heir to the throne and you're telling me his head isn't chopped off faster than Ned Stark's was? Joke of a monarchy

"OMG where are the guards, someone stop him".
Bitch, he IS the guards.
If regular ass cops aren't held accountable in our world, how you gonna expect better from the medieval secret service?
What authority did he have?
Well, the white cloak, of course.
Exactly!
If they wanted to make us feel bad for Aegon, they shouldn't have made him a rapist and a child abuser 😭
That part!!
I remind people who start feeling bad for him
They don’t necessarily want you to feel good or bad, they’re fleshing out his character because even the most horrible people still have relatable moments, storytelling in media seems like it always has to be black and white/good and bad to appeal to an audience
Thats right...Aegon is no king material, just like his Grandfather said, Aegon is weak.....
I see your recaps, I click. It’s simple.
😂🙌🏾♥️
Olay’s recaps are better than watching the episodes. It’s like the best kind of gossip session and no one gets hurt because it’s about fictional characters. 😂
Narrators got her cat locked in the bathroom waiting on the shipment of anxiety medications 😂😂😂
My boyfriend and I nearly pissing ourselves to the “I REALLY MISS MY WIGGA! 💔” hahaha I can’t breathe
Sir Criston Cole is truly a D-1 athlete of dicking down on the job 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
@@SonderDAzeX Dicking up Royalty while an infant is being murdered is Vile Business and Nasty Work. Truly a legend in the game
😂
The scene between Rhae and Daemon was so well done, She doesn't know whether to fear or love him
Wow! I love that scene, honest conversation there..😊😊
Rhys Ifan (Otto Hightower) was SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH in this episode!!!!!!!!! The absolute bewilderment on his face...basically confirming that Viserys hated Aegon on his way out the door.... GIRL!!!! I needa rewatch that whole ass scene
Same! The way he roasted Aegon downnnn took me out😂 even called him trifling 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I agree! Otto Hightower's expressions and dialogue totally exposed his utter disgust, shame, and regret for helping make Aegon the King! I've re-watched that scene over and over about 10 times!!!
YES I was waiting for this more desperately than the actual episode. I can already tell I’m gonna be waiting for these all season long
Sameeee
literally
You’re 50x better than any GOT commentators on YT 😂
“Oh my God; I’m a hoe! 😬” has me DOWN! 😂😂😂
LOL my favorite part also so far
😂😂😂😂😂
What is crazy to me is that Alicent and Otto don't even like Aegon and they wanted him to be King SO BAD.
THIS!!!! He’s horrible. When Otto finally admits it, I screamed!
They didnt like him but they also didnt teach him! Rhaenyra was raised by her dad to be a decent ruler and person. What did Alicent and Otto teach Aegon? The results speak for themselves!
@@moustik31 True but I genuinely think they don't like him at all, outside of being King.

Good recap, but you’re sleeping on Mysaria. She’s the one who warned Erryk his brother was coming pretending to be him. I don’t think she just gonna sail away to Essos. She’s too powerful
I hope she stays 🤞
WHY am I agreeing with Otto? Why was he the most sane in this episode?! Omg and it’s always fuck Cole.
I ain't watching House of the Dragon, but I absolutely live for Olay's recaps. they add years to my life.
You dont watch the show? Humans are so interesting lol
Sir Crispy Cole was waiting for Alicent with armor off, ready to go to pound town!
Like he felt no guilt at all.
He wanted her to feel the power of The King's Hand.
@@MariaCJLMFAO
The way you broke down the Otto meltdown was freaking PRICELESS!
That Emon, shame wizard got me on the floor and your reenactment has me in tears 😭🤣
It’s my favorite part of the video!😂
Ha yes omg hilarious 😂😂😂😂
Child Rhaenyra really said "I can fix him"
Dis da Bahamian breakdown of House of Dragon! Man I loving dis 😂 ! Don’t stop beh!
😂😂🇧🇸♥️
Your commentary is a beautiful addition to my House Of The Dragon consumption, thank you for your service
“Have some urgency on ya azz” I’m dead ☠️😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Otto was saying Daeron is the grandson who may still listen. Alicent’s youngest son who is in Oldtown
Sis, I don't watch, nor do I intend to start watching this program, but I have thoroughly enjoyed your recaps and I will be back next week! 😂
It’s a good show!
give it a chance !!! if you love her recaps you’ll really love knowing exactly what she’s talking about and legitimately feeling the same !!!
“Oh my god ima ho3 god punishing me” Olayyy tooo many one liners on here I loveeeee this 😭😭
No spoilers but Helena done read the book ahead of time. No wonder she's clairvoyant.
Assata in lockdown:
Oh, freedom, Oh, freedom
Oh freedom over me
And before I'd be a slave
I'd be buried in my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free
Imagine if Rhaenyra was already on the throne and Rhaenys was the hand to the queen!!! THAT would be a well run kingdom!
😊😊😊
Rhaenys killed a bunch of people to just showoff !!
Aegon really could've rounded up all the rat catchers, put them in a line-up, and have Blood identify who Cheese is.
He’s such a shit and has no idea what he’s doing.
And he definitely would have told too.
I feel like Cheese slipped away though. He knows all the secret passageways. And I don’t remember seeing him hanging with everybody else.
@@Dr.Jalondra-MamiMelusine he was hanging, his dog was on the ground looking at his corpse
Or even getting Helaena to identify who threatened her
I look forward to these almost as much as the actual show, this is my absolute favourite thing to come from HotD fans

You have me rolling every single time I watch. So funny. So witty. And you are a great storyteller.
When Otto called Aegon trifling, I was dyin! One thing though, Tywin wasn't gone run on with Aegon stupid ass.
That's it I'm calling HBO and max and demand they hire you for the house that dragons built with an awesome office with a cat playroom .Epic recap 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lady I been watching your videos for hours at this point I am so MFing entertained!!! I can’t believe I didn’t discover your channel sooner 😂❤

I couldn’t believe I found myself rooting for Otto that scene enemy of my enemy is my friend fr
Otto was hilarious. That look was award winning! 😂😂😂😂
I had tears in my eyes when you got to the otto/aegon rat catcher situation 😭😂
Plotto's read of Aegon was chef's kiss level. He was in his Olivia Pope spin bag, got the small folks dragging Rhae Rhae and then the dumb dumb twins pushed the goodwill out the window like Jaime did Bran in the OG Thrones.
Auntie Rhaenys knows her first cousin Daemon and that he ain't ish.
lmao not your cat “who is currently incarcerated in the bathroom for attacking people all weekend” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Also the other son that Otto is referring to is Daeron
I think that Daemon hired those two idiots to get the job done specifically because they were idiots and would fumble the bag. I think that Daemon didn't care WHO was murdered because the point was psychological damage.
Love the recap. But really how do we put money on Assata's book? I know she is crazy but I want to get my girl some tuna. :)
😂
😂😂
Don’t give her badass nothing!😂
The way you be cracking yourself up 😂😁😆🤣

maam i have never watched an ounce of this show or GOT in my life but im on the edge of my seat for next weeks recap
This whole episode was comedy. The reaction gifs out of this episode when Rhaenyra and Otto find out what these idiots have been up to was everything.
