00:10:43,436 --> 00:10:46,814
She has been gone for days.
Too long. She is exposed.
183
00:10:46,939 --> 00:10:49,066
- She is grieving.
- The mother grieves
184
00:10:49,067 --> 00:10:51,611

me news of Laena's death.

daughter's mortal remains
189

that I could begin to mourn her.

A raven has told Rhaenyra
that her son is dead.

She needs to know it
for certain.
192
00:11:19,806 --> 00:11:21,849
She was a fool to go alone.
193
00:11:22,475 --> 00:11:24,143
What if Aemond were
to happen upon her?
194
00:11:24,268 --> 00:11:26,312
Then I would pity Aemond.
195
00:11:28,815 --> 00:11:30,942
The queen was wise
to recuse herself.
196
00:11:31,818 --> 00:11:37,280
She has not acted on the vengeful
impulse that others might have.
197
00:11:37,281 --> 00:11:40,450
If you'd have acted when
you had the chance...
198
00:11:40,451 --> 00:11:43,454
Aegon's line would
be extinguished.
199

the board before us.

Tyland: If we are to break
the Sea Snake's blockade,
340
00:21:58,277 --> 00:22:01,029
we will need to bolster both the
Lannister and Hightower navies.
341
00:22:01,030 --> 00:22:03,783
We do have need
for a new Master of Ships.

at this council.

00:22:12,291 --> 00:22:15,711
Aemond is my closest
blood and our best sword.

I welcome him.
348
00:22:17,922 --> 00:22:20,842
Path to King's Landing
is through the Riverlands.
349
00:22:20,967 --> 00:22:24,386
We must establish a
toehold there, at Harrenhal.
350
00:22:24,387 --> 00:22:26,596
Aegon: The Riverlords
will either declare for me,
351
00:22:26,597 --> 00:22:29,433
or they will meet Vhagar
and Sunfyre together.
352
00:22:29,434 --> 00:22:31,893
Ah, and-and we can burn
the blockade while we're at it.
353
00:22:31,894 --> 00:22:33,646
- Rhaenyra has dragons as well.
- Mine are bigger.
354
00:22:33,771 --> 00:22:36,440
If we lose the dragons to war,
there'll be no calling them back.
355
00:22:36,441 --> 00:22:37,941
- We must proceed cautiously.
- No.
356
00:22:37,942 --> 00:22:42,237
Fat, old Lord Tully will either
raise my banner or see his burn.
357
00:22:42,238 --> 00:22:44,365
We should fly to Riverrun.
358
00:22:44,699 --> 00:22:46,367
You are the king, Your Grace.
359
00:22:46,492 --> 00:22:47,784
You must not put
yourself at risk.
360
00:22:47,785 --> 00:22:50,579
And Vhagar is needed here
to deter Rhaenyra from attacking
361
00:22:50,580 --> 00:22:53,332
in retribution
for the death of her son.
362
00:22:54,167 --> 00:22:58,628
Errors were made in the hours
following King Viserys's death.
363
00:22:58,629 --> 00:23:01,049
We mustn't compound them.
364
00:23:02,341 --> 00:23:05,010
You've already demonstrated
your might, Your Grace.
365
00:23:05,011 --> 00:23:09,473
- We must now favor patience
and restraint. - (Aegon sighs)
366
00:23:09,474 --> 00:23:11,099
I send ravens by the hour.
367
00:23:11,100 --> 00:23:15,604
Many and more houses
will declare for you in time.
368
00:23:15,605 --> 00:23:19,025
History and precedent
will come to your side.
369
00:23:19,650 --> 00:23:22,361
- (birds chirping)
- (indistinct chatter)
370
00:23:26,657 --> 00:23:27,742
Good morrow, Your Grace.
371
00:23:27,867 --> 00:23:29,493
Good morrow, Lord Larys.
372
00:23:29,494 --> 00:23:31,412
I had come earlier
to have a word
373
00:23:31,537 --> 00:23:33,081
before the small
council convened,
374
00:23:33,206 --> 00:23:38,002
but your handmaiden said
that you were indisposed.
375
00:23:41,005 --> 00:23:43,257
What is it you wish to discuss?
376
00:23:45,051 --> 00:23:49,638
I have completed questioning
the whole of the castle staff.
377
00:23:49,639 --> 00:23:51,348
They produced rather
interesting details,
378
00:23:51,349 --> 00:23:56,354
but I am satisfied I have
exposed all who betrayed our trust.
379
00:23:58,231 --> 00:23:59,399
And what of them?
380
00:24:00,733 --> 00:24:03,069
They no longer breathe our air.
381
00:24:05,071 --> 00:24:08,908

new staff personally.

Good morrow, Jerard.

And how might your king
be of service?

00:27:39,952 --> 00:27:42,370
'Tis my flock.

00:27:42,371 --> 00:27:46,334
Uh, a-a-a tenth
of them taken by...

429
00:27:53,257 --> 00:27:56,469
- If I'd had the time to plan...
- We should return them.
430
00:27:59,347 --> 00:28:00,931
- Your Grace?
- Aegon: Well, you need
431
00:28:00,932 --> 00:28:02,432
your goats for the
winter, don't you?
432
00:28:02,433 --> 00:28:05,310
- Sheep, Your-Your Grace.
- Aegon: Sheep, even better.
433
00:28:05,311 --> 00:28:07,813
I shall make your
flock of sheep whole.

00:28:07,814 --> 00:28:09,439
(Jerard laughs)
435
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,026
We already made a promise
to all the Crownlands
436
00:28:12,151 --> 00:28:14,362
that a tithing of livestock
437
00:28:14,487 --> 00:28:16,780
would be necessary
to sustain the dragons
438
00:28:16,781 --> 00:28:18,156
for their increased activity
439
00:28:18,157 --> 00:28:21,869
and, pray not,
eventual fighting.
440
00:28:21,994 --> 00:28:23,787
Right... Right.
441
00:28:23,788 --> 00:28:26,999
Perhaps we could just return
his sheep. He came all this way.
442
00:28:27,125 --> 00:28:29,544
If you return one herder's
sheep, Your Grace,
443
00:28:29,669 --> 00:28:32,129
you will soon find them
all at the foot of your throne
444
00:28:32,130 --> 00:28:34,589
expecting the same.
445
00:28:34,590 --> 00:28:36,008
They won't know.
446
00:28:36,134 --> 00:28:42,515
When the king speaks,
Your Grace, all hear it.
447
00:28:50,982 --> 00:28:53,901
After further thought,
I have decided that
448
00:28:54,026 --> 00:28:56,278
I cannot restore your sheep.
449
00:28:56,279 --> 00:28:57,696
If war were to break out,
450
00:28:57,697 --> 00:28:59,407
my dragons will require feed.
451
00:28:59,532 --> 00:29:02,284
- Bring the next.

452
00:29:02,285 --> 00:29:06,037
guildmaster: Salts always
run scarce on the road to winter,
453
00:29:06,038 --> 00:29:07,039
Your Grace.
454
00:29:07,165 --> 00:29:08,957
We rely on ships from Essos
455
00:29:08,958 --> 00:29:10,376
for our supply.
456
00:29:10,501 --> 00:29:13,588
But now, with a blockade in
place and war threatening...
457
00:29:13,713 --> 00:29:15,839
Yeah, that treasonous
blockade won't last long.
458
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,467
I plan to send Vhagar
to burn it to ash.
459
00:29:18,468 --> 00:29:19,718
Bring the next.
460
00:29:19,719 --> 00:29:21,846
(crowd murmuring)
461
00:29:23,765 --> 00:29:25,516
Hugh, Your Grace.
462
00:29:28,895 --> 00:29:30,228
The smiths are all proud
463
00:29:30,229 --> 00:29:32,690
to support Your Grace
against Rhaenyra.
464
00:29:36,444 --> 00:29:37,403
But?
465
00:29:37,528 --> 00:29:38,696
But...
466
00:29:40,239 --> 00:29:42,408
iron costs have grown.
467
00:29:43,201 --> 00:29:46,746
A lone scorpion
takes weeks to build.
468
00:29:47,371 --> 00:29:49,749
To put it simply,
we are struggling.
469
00:29:50,416 --> 00:29:54,920
If we could but have the Crown's
coin before we started work,
470
00:29:54,921 --> 00:29:56,713
it would bring great relief.
471
00:29:56,714 --> 00:30:00,426
Not just to me, but to all the
smiths serving your cause.

(sighs)
473
00:30:04,931 --> 00:30:07,934
You shall be paid and paid well.
474
00:30:08,267 --> 00:30:10,435
My army cannot win a war
without your weapons.
475
00:30:10,436 --> 00:30:12,480
You should continue
their making.
476
00:30:12,772 --> 00:30:16,818
Our victory depends on
the efforts of the smallfolk.
477
00:30:19,153 --> 00:30:21,614
You have my most sincere
gratitude, Your Grace.
478
00:30:22,281 --> 00:30:24,951
Aegon: I'll hear
the next petition.
479
00:30:25,076 --> 00:30:27,286
(indistinct chatter)
480
00:30:31,791 --> 00:30:34,627
Larys Strong: Your Grace, it filled
my heart to see you on the Iron Throne.
481
00:30:34,752 --> 00:30:38,005
- (Aegon groans) - I was only a boy
when Jaehaerys last graced the seat,
482
00:30:38,131 --> 00:30:39,381
but you brought forth
memories of him,
483
00:30:39,382 --> 00:30:41,676
and you have such a deft
touch with the smallfolk,
484
00:30:41,801 --> 00:30:43,552
just as your father did.
485
00:30:43,553 --> 00:30:44,971
Thank you, my lord.
486
00:30:45,346 --> 00:30:47,765
I wonder, do you have a
moment for a quiet word?
487
00:30:53,646 --> 00:30:57,065
It is the Hand's won't to
keep a firm grip on things.
488
00:30:57,066 --> 00:30:59,234
Mm.
489
00:30:59,235 --> 00:31:01,487
He controlled your
father the same way.
490
00:31:02,822 --> 00:31:05,700
Viserys had a certain
reputation as being pliable.
491
00:31:05,825 --> 00:31:07,326
I am aware.
492
00:31:08,661 --> 00:31:11,079
I would think,
as we find ourselves
493
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,290
standing within a hair's
breadth of war,
494
00:31:13,291 --> 00:31:16,502
that you would wish
to be viewed differently.
495
00:31:19,672 --> 00:31:20,922
How?
496
00:31:20,923 --> 00:31:22,717
Otto Hightower...
497
00:31:24,052 --> 00:31:27,180
was your father's Hand,
Your Grace.
498
00:31:43,696 --> 00:31:44,864
Daughter.
499
00:31:46,032 --> 00:31:48,743
I requested
an audience hours ago.
500
00:31:50,036 --> 00:31:53,873
There were many petitions.
501
00:31:56,375 --> 00:31:58,503
Alicent:
I find myself wondering...
502
00:31:59,379 --> 00:32:01,422
do we pursue the same end?
503
00:32:03,091 --> 00:32:06,886
I must admit, there are days
where I myself can't be sure.
504
00:32:08,429 --> 00:32:10,681
I shall tell you mine.
505
00:32:12,183 --> 00:32:13,517
It's victory.
506
00:32:13,518 --> 00:32:16,395
And how would you
define "victory"?
507
00:32:16,396 --> 00:32:18,355
Rhaenyra bending the knee
508
00:32:18,356 --> 00:32:21,275
and Aegon sitting
the Iron Throne, in peace.
509
00:32:21,901 --> 00:32:23,277
As Viserys wished.
510
00:32:23,403 --> 00:32:27,030
Well, if that's how you
describe it, then we are aligned.
511
00:32:27,031 --> 00:32:29,117
- Then be my ally.
- I am.
512
00:32:29,242 --> 00:32:30,743
An ally would not
repeatedly cut my legs
513
00:32:30,868 --> 00:32:32,787
from beneath me
at that table of men!
514
00:32:32,912 --> 00:32:36,540
- I sit there and I feel your anger.
- Frustration.
515
00:32:36,541 --> 00:32:38,917
These critical days
since Viserys's passing
516
00:32:38,918 --> 00:32:42,255
- haven't gone to plan.
- That's not my fault.
517
00:32:43,464 --> 00:32:46,426
My sons both see you
as the great example.
518
00:32:46,551 --> 00:32:47,885
The Hand to three kings.
519
00:32:49,429 --> 00:32:51,264
Aegon is ever-eager
to prove himself
520
00:32:51,389 --> 00:32:52,932
and Aemond...
521
00:32:54,392 --> 00:32:57,437
Aemond is angry.
522
00:32:57,562 --> 00:32:59,981
Rhaenyra's son took his eye
and was never punished for it.
523
00:33:00,106 --> 00:33:04,944
- What he did, however vicious...
- The caprice of youth.
524
00:33:08,990 --> 00:33:10,825
I could only hope.
525
00:33:10,950 --> 00:33:12,952
Aemond erred.
526
00:33:13,828 --> 00:33:17,372
But he is fiercely loyal.
He wishes to please.
527
00:33:17,373 --> 00:33:19,124
And Aegon still heeds me.
528
00:33:19,125 --> 00:33:20,835
In private, at least.
529
00:33:22,295 --> 00:33:23,587
But if you undermine my voice,
530
00:33:23,588 --> 00:33:25,464
both those boys
will grow deaf to it.
531
00:33:25,465 --> 00:33:28,760
(light music playing)

on a mission

935
01:04:27,201 --> 01:04:28,494
so there's guilt involved.
936
01:04:28,619 --> 01:04:31,706
And she's a mother
who's lost a son
937
01:04:31,831 --> 01:04:32,623
and has to go through
938
01:04:32,624 --> 01:04:34,666
the sort of necessary
grieving process
939
01:04:34,667 --> 01:04:36,501
that Daemon, her husband,
940
01:04:36,502 --> 01:04:38,963
can't really appreciate
or understand.

unsettled business,

until part of Arrax
washes ashore.
945
01:04:47,055 --> 01:04:50,515
Going in search of evidence is
946
01:04:50,516 --> 01:04:52,309
quite fundamentally important
to her.
947
01:04:52,310 --> 01:04:56,688
I guess one of the sort of
maddest things about death
948
01:04:56,689 --> 01:04:58,191
is that it seems
sort of impossible,
949
01:04:58,524 --> 01:05:01,818
especially because really
the overriding feeling often is
950
01:05:01,819 --> 01:05:03,195
you just sit with the absence.
951
01:05:03,196 --> 01:05:06,074
And so, anything that has, like,
a tangibility about it
952
01:05:06,199 --> 01:05:07,741
I think is vitally important.
953
01:05:07,742 --> 01:05:11,079
Her son's cloak,
the wing of his dragon,
954
01:05:11,204 --> 01:05:12,704
I think it's devastating,
955
01:05:12,705 --> 01:05:17,085
but I think it galvanizes
a vengeful feeling,
956
01:05:17,418 --> 01:05:20,213
one that maybe she hasn't
paid so much mind to previously.

960
01:05:28,930 --> 01:05:30,890
although I suspect
probably wants to.
961
01:05:32,392 --> 01:05:33,934
We're going to King's Landing.
962
01:05:33,935 --> 01:05:36,020
- To what end?
- Killing Vhagar.
963
01:05:36,396 --> 01:05:38,230
When those two meet,
it's kind of like
964
01:05:38,231 --> 01:05:42,944
a panther meets
a kind of electric eel.
965
01:05:43,069 --> 01:05:45,279
Really dangerous combination.
966
01:05:45,696 --> 01:05:49,075

969
01:05:53,287 --> 01:05:55,872
I think you can tell
from even her demeanor
970
01:05:55,873 --> 01:05:57,625
the way Rhaenys
thinks of Daemon.
971
01:05:57,750 --> 01:05:59,626
Daemon believes that he's,
of course,
972
01:05:59,627 --> 01:06:00,461
completely in the right
973
01:06:00,753 --> 01:06:02,922
and has the power
to order Rhaenys around.
974
01:06:03,089 --> 01:06:04,257
Fly with me.
975
01:06:05,633 --> 01:06:06,718
It is a command.
976
01:06:06,968 --> 01:06:08,720

Where is Jaehaerys?
978
01:06:10,930 --> 01:06:12,306
What do you need of him?
979
01:06:12,598 --> 01:06:14,142
I'm taking him
to the Small Council.
980
01:06:14,767 --> 01:06:17,061
He'll be king one day.
He must begin his instruction.
981
01:06:17,270 --> 01:06:19,313
What if he does not want
to be king?
982
01:06:20,815 --> 01:06:21,649
(whispers) Where is he?
983
01:06:21,941 --> 01:06:23,442
One of the things I loved
about Game of Thrones
984
01:06:23,443 --> 01:06:24,568
was the character humor.
985
01:06:24,569 --> 01:06:26,320
And, you know,
we can spend a lot of time
986
01:06:26,446 --> 01:06:27,487
being dour in this world,
987
01:06:27,488 --> 01:06:28,947
and it's so important
to have humor.
988
01:06:28,948 --> 01:06:30,073
And when I first saw
989
01:06:30,074 --> 01:06:31,616
what Tom Glynn-Carney was doing
with Aegon,
990
01:06:31,617 --> 01:06:33,910
I thought, "He's finding humor
where I didn't know it existed."
991
01:06:33,911 --> 01:06:35,120
And it's painful,
992
01:06:35,121 --> 01:06:36,747
a guy who's way in
over his head,
993
01:06:36,748 --> 01:06:38,165
who really wants to do well
994
01:06:38,166 --> 01:06:40,000
but just can't make
a right move...
995
01:06:40,001 --> 01:06:42,128
(laughs)
...no matter what he does.
996
01:06:42,503 --> 01:06:44,672
speaker 2:
Aegon the Magnanimous.
997
01:06:44,839 --> 01:06:46,424
Hail King Aegon!
998
01:06:47,300 --> 01:06:48,676
The Magnanimous?
999
01:06:50,511 --> 01:06:52,804
I think Aegon is
the kind of father
1000
01:06:52,805 --> 01:06:55,683
that encourages bad behavior
because he finds it funny.
1001
01:06:55,808 --> 01:06:56,809
He loves his kids.
1002
01:06:56,934 --> 01:06:58,310
I have no doubt about that.
1003
01:06:58,311 --> 01:06:59,644
He loves his kids dearly.
1004
01:06:59,645 --> 01:07:02,272
But he's not one
to discipline them.
1005
01:07:02,273 --> 01:07:04,192
If anything, he's, you know,
1006
01:07:04,317 --> 01:07:05,650
having competitions
with his children
1007
01:07:05,651 --> 01:07:07,862
to see who can be
the most rebellious.
1008
01:07:08,154 --> 01:07:09,654
And Aegon often wins.
1009
01:07:09,655 --> 01:07:10,615
He took my piece.
1010
01:07:10,823 --> 01:07:12,867
Is the heir to the throne
bothering you, Tyland?
1011
01:07:13,618 --> 01:07:15,536
We see him come into
a Small Council meeting
1012
01:07:15,661 --> 01:07:16,537
with Jaehaerys,
1013
01:07:16,662 --> 01:07:19,207
and, you know,
he's spurring him on.
1014
01:07:19,332 --> 01:07:22,793
He's wanting him to be
more of a... more of a rebel,
1015
01:07:22,794 --> 01:07:25,505
more of a nuisance,
just like his old man.
1016
01:07:25,630 --> 01:07:28,215
- I think he wants a ride.
- Alicent Hightower: Your Grace.
1017
01:07:28,216 --> 01:07:30,051
- Tyland Lannister: A ride?
- A pony ride.
1018
01:07:30,802 --> 01:07:32,177
Wouldn't that be fun, Jaehaerys?
1019
01:07:32,178 --> 01:07:34,555
Should the Master of Coin
be your royal steed?
1020
01:07:34,680 --> 01:07:36,014
(all chuckling)
1021
01:07:36,015 --> 01:07:37,516
It's meant to be
a moment of fun, a bit.
1022
01:07:37,517 --> 01:07:40,685
And yes, like Aegon brings
his four-year-old to work.
1023
01:07:40,686 --> 01:07:42,854
But I think on a perhaps
nuanced character level,
1024
01:07:42,855 --> 01:07:45,482
this is the thing that Viserys
never did for Aegon.
1025
01:07:45,483 --> 01:07:47,359
And Aegon did not study
at the feet of his father.
1026
01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:49,820
His father had his male heir
and then essentially said,
1027
01:07:49,821 --> 01:07:52,073
"Well, that box is ticked."
He was ill.
1028
01:07:52,365 --> 01:07:53,698
I think he enjoyed having a son,
1029
01:07:53,699 --> 01:07:56,034
but didn't put in the work
the way he did with Rhaenyra
1030
01:07:56,035 --> 01:07:57,160
when he was a younger man.
1031
01:07:57,161 --> 01:07:58,871
And I think Aegon resents that
1032
01:07:59,080 --> 01:08:00,539
and feels that
part of the reason
1033
01:08:00,540 --> 01:08:02,207
that he's not seen
as being suited
1034
01:08:02,208 --> 01:08:04,377
for the crown or the throne
1035
01:08:04,544 --> 01:08:07,422
is because he didn't get
that training from his father,
1036
01:08:07,547 --> 01:08:10,091
so now he's going to
make up for that tenfold
1037
01:08:10,216 --> 01:08:11,384
with Jaehaerys.
1038
01:08:13,928 --> 01:08:16,096
Alan: Alicent's been
in a marriage that was loving,
1039
01:08:16,097 --> 01:08:20,058
but not exactly romantic
or physical for quite some time.
1040
01:08:20,059 --> 01:08:21,893
Cole has got a lot of issues.
1041
01:08:21,894 --> 01:08:23,353
One thing I love
about the character
1042
01:08:23,354 --> 01:08:25,106
is that he is a knight
in shining armor
1043
01:08:25,231 --> 01:08:26,232
and sort of classically handsome
1044
01:08:26,566 --> 01:08:28,692
and probably the most
messed up person in the story
1045
01:08:28,693 --> 01:08:29,569
in many ways.
1046
01:08:29,861 --> 01:08:31,612
You know, clinging to notions
of purity and duty
1047
01:08:31,738 --> 01:08:34,365
and just flagrantly
breaking them left and right.
1048
01:08:34,741 --> 01:08:36,074
So, there's a lot
of complex things
1049
01:08:36,075 --> 01:08:37,909
driving the moves
closer and closer
1050
01:08:37,910 --> 01:08:39,120
between Alicent and Cole.
1051
01:08:39,412 --> 01:08:40,579
And it takes a leap forward.
1052
01:08:40,580 --> 01:08:41,789
But nothing is simple with them,
1053
01:08:41,914 --> 01:08:43,791
so for every leap forward,
there's a push back.
1054
01:08:44,125 --> 01:08:46,711
We cannot... again.
1055
01:08:46,961 --> 01:08:48,712
Alan: There's a lot
of wonderful tension there.
1056
01:08:48,713 --> 01:08:51,882
I mean, I think there's love,
but there's a lot of mess too.
1057
01:08:51,883 --> 01:08:52,967
(laughs)
1058
01:08:53,384 --> 01:08:54,885
- Your Grace.
- Good day.
1059
01:08:54,886 --> 01:08:56,387
Fabien Frankel:
I think, ultimately,
1060
01:08:56,596 --> 01:09:01,768
they're two very lost people
in a pretty unforgiving world.
1061
01:09:02,101 --> 01:09:04,436
And I think there's always been,
1062
01:09:04,437 --> 01:09:06,481
you know,
since the very first episode,
1063
01:09:06,606 --> 01:09:08,398
Alicent, you know,
had her eye on Criston Cole.
1064
01:09:08,399 --> 01:09:10,400
And then she was a young lady,
1065
01:09:10,401 --> 01:09:13,780
and now she's
the Queen of the Seven Kingdoms.
1066
01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:16,782
Olivia Cooke: It's paramount
that she keeps it a secret
1067
01:09:16,783 --> 01:09:19,993
because not only
would her respect
1068
01:09:19,994 --> 01:09:22,120
completely disintegrate,
1069
01:09:22,121 --> 01:09:24,581
but her stay in the castle.
1070
01:09:24,582 --> 01:09:27,334
And Aegon is so unpredictable.
Who knows what he would do
1071
01:09:27,335 --> 01:09:31,171
if he found out
that his mother was having sex
1072
01:09:31,172 --> 01:09:33,341
with his
Commander of the Kingsguard?
1073
01:09:33,466 --> 01:09:35,258
I mean, not only is it
an embarrassment,
1074
01:09:35,259 --> 01:09:38,930
it would bring deep, deep shame.
1075
01:09:42,475 --> 01:09:45,144
I want Aemond Targaryen.
1076
01:09:46,521 --> 01:09:49,190
Rhaenyra has literally one line
in the first episode,
1077
01:09:49,315 --> 01:09:50,483
and the one line she says,
1078
01:09:50,817 --> 01:09:52,985
Daemon takes
as pulling the trigger.
1079
01:09:53,152 --> 01:09:55,822
In our first episode,
we see him unleash something
1080
01:09:55,947 --> 01:09:58,324
that is sort of famous in
the lore of House of the Dragon,
1081
01:09:58,491 --> 01:10:00,535
a nasty event that he triggers.
1082
01:10:00,993 --> 01:10:04,705
When Rhaenyra declares
that she wants Aemond,
1083
01:10:04,831 --> 01:10:09,711
I think it's an admission
of a possibly shameful desire,
1084
01:10:09,836 --> 01:10:12,839
and I think that admission
is made directly to Daemon.
1085
01:10:13,005 --> 01:10:16,007
I think it's also an admission
of their similarity.
1086
01:10:16,008 --> 01:10:19,011
She sort of discloses
another way in which
1087
01:10:19,137 --> 01:10:21,848
they actually share a darkness.
1088
01:10:22,515 --> 01:10:25,392
"I want Aemond Targaryen"
becomes the battle cry
1089
01:10:25,393 --> 01:10:27,686
that then resonates
across the entire season
1090
01:10:27,687 --> 01:10:30,355
because that is
the next domino to fall
1091
01:10:30,356 --> 01:10:32,983
in this back and forth
that sets in motion
1092
01:10:32,984 --> 01:10:34,902
a horrible attack
and counterattack
1093
01:10:35,027 --> 01:10:35,820
that continues,
1094
01:10:36,154 --> 01:10:38,531
and the atrocities grow worse
and worse as they go.
1095
01:10:39,031 --> 01:10:40,699
Alan: In our story,
it's Mysaria,
1096
01:10:40,700 --> 01:10:42,868
who has got her tentacles into
every part of King's Landing,
1097
01:10:42,869 --> 01:10:45,036
who is able to provide
the connections
1098
01:10:45,037 --> 01:10:47,414
for Daemon to exact revenge.
1099
01:10:47,415 --> 01:10:49,040
I think it really is a big deal
for the fans
1100
01:10:49,041 --> 01:10:50,418
because it keeps
getting referred to.
1101
01:10:50,543 --> 01:10:52,502
And I don't know
the characters' actual names.
1102
01:10:52,503 --> 01:10:54,755
They're forever in lore
as Blood and Cheese.
1103
01:10:54,756 --> 01:10:57,174
- (laughing)
- Who the fuck is she?
1104
01:10:57,175 --> 01:10:58,717
She's the Queen, she is.
1105
01:10:58,718 --> 01:11:00,677
"A son for a son," he said.
1106
01:11:00,678 --> 01:11:02,220
The boldest thing that
I think we did there
1107
01:11:02,221 --> 01:11:04,932
was decide to give the last
ten minutes of the episode
1108
01:11:05,058 --> 01:11:07,560
over to these two characters
that we have never met before
1109
01:11:07,685 --> 01:11:10,437
and rely on them to take us
through the end of the story
1110
01:11:10,438 --> 01:11:12,064
and to see, hopefully,
1111
01:11:12,065 --> 01:11:14,066
as they go deeper and deeper
into the Red Keep
1112
01:11:14,067 --> 01:11:15,943
and as we're spending more
and more screen time on them
1113
01:11:16,069 --> 01:11:18,446
that something horrible
is going to happen in there,
1114
01:11:18,571 --> 01:11:20,906
and knowing that you're watching
Game of Thrones
1115
01:11:20,907 --> 01:11:23,743
and you don't know what is going
to come for you from where.
1116
01:11:23,951 --> 01:11:25,869
And seeing that play out
hopefully is the fun
1117
01:11:25,870 --> 01:11:28,790
and the horror for the audience
that's yet to come.
