1
00:00:00,792 --> 00:00:03,211
I, Viserys Targaryen,
2
00:00:03,753 --> 00:00:05,714
Lord of the Seven Kingdoms,
3
00:00:05,964 --> 00:00:10,635
do hereby name Rhaenyra
Targaryen heir...
4
00:00:12,137 --> 00:00:13,596
to the Iron Throne.
5
00:00:19,602 --> 00:00:23,564
The King will die, and
if Rhaenyra succeeds him,
6
00:00:23,565 --> 00:00:25,150
war will follow.
7
00:00:25,275 --> 00:00:26,775
The realm will not accept her.
8
00:00:26,776 --> 00:00:28,278
And to secure her claim,
9
00:00:28,403 --> 00:00:30,947
she'll have to put your
children to the sword.
10
00:00:31,656 --> 00:00:33,240
Criston Cole will be named
11
00:00:33,241 --> 00:00:35,326
Lord Commander of
the Kingsguard.
12
00:00:36,077 --> 00:00:38,163
I trust you and your loyalty.
13
00:00:38,288 --> 00:00:39,664
I will not fail you.
14
00:00:40,165 --> 00:00:41,332
I need you, Uncle.
15
00:00:47,589 --> 00:00:48,589
Rhaenyra...
16
00:00:49,632 --> 00:00:50,759
You wanted to know.
17
00:00:51,134 --> 00:00:52,802
Aegon's dream.
18
00:00:53,470 --> 00:00:54,595
The Song of Ice...
19
00:00:55,638 --> 00:00:56,681
and Fire.
20
00:00:57,182 --> 00:00:59,017
The Prince That Was Promised.
21
00:00:59,351 --> 00:01:01,186
- Aegon.- Our son.
22
00:01:01,311 --> 00:01:02,645
I understand, my King.
23
00:01:06,524 --> 00:01:07,650
The King is dead.
24
00:01:08,485 --> 00:01:10,319
Aegon is unfit to rule.
25
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:12,488
You tolerated the Prince's
proclivities for years.
26
00:01:12,489 --> 00:01:14,199
Because it was my
sworn duty, Arryk.
27
00:01:14,366 --> 00:01:17,534
When you install your
grandson on the throne,
28
00:01:17,535 --> 00:01:20,705
remember it was me
who put him there.
29
00:01:21,206 --> 00:01:22,665
I will remember.
30
00:01:24,209 --> 00:01:26,335
All hail His Grace!
31
00:01:26,336 --> 00:01:27,961
You are usurping the throne.
32
00:01:27,962 --> 00:01:30,005
Lord of the Seven Kingdoms...
33
00:01:30,006 --> 00:01:31,341
She will never bend the knee.
34
00:01:31,508 --> 00:01:33,801
and Protector of the Realm.
35
00:01:42,352 --> 00:01:45,397
A war is like to be fought over
this treachery, to be sure.
36
00:01:46,064 --> 00:01:47,732
I swear to ward the Queen.
37
00:01:47,857 --> 00:01:51,069
Alicent has not forgotten the
love you had for each other.
38
00:01:51,194 --> 00:01:53,028
No blood need be spilled,
39
00:01:53,029 --> 00:01:55,699
so the realm can
carry on in peace.
40
00:01:56,032 --> 00:01:58,575
That girl destroys
everything she touches.
41
00:01:58,576 --> 00:02:00,536
Every man standing
'round the Painted Table
42
00:02:00,537 --> 00:02:02,080
urges her to plunge
the realm into war.
43
00:02:02,205 --> 00:02:03,664
The enemy have declared war.
44
00:02:03,665 --> 00:02:05,375
What are you gonna do about it?
45
00:02:06,334 --> 00:02:09,253
You have the full support
of our fleet and house.
46
00:02:09,254 --> 00:02:11,171
Prince Jacaerys will fly north
47
00:02:11,172 --> 00:02:12,257
to Winterfell.
48
00:02:12,674 --> 00:02:15,427
Prince Lucerys will fly
south to Storm's End.
49
00:02:15,927 --> 00:02:19,764
We must remind these lords
of the oaths they swore.
50
00:02:20,890 --> 00:02:22,684
I want you to put out your eye.
51
00:02:22,892 --> 00:02:23,892
No.
52
00:02:24,019 --> 00:02:27,229
Give me your eye or I
will take it, bastard!
53
00:02:34,237 --> 00:02:35,447
No!
54
00:02:38,616 --> 00:02:40,536
The Greens are coming
for you, Rhaenyra.
55
00:05:07,849 --> 00:05:11,061
speaker: Duty is sacrifice.
56
00:05:12,103 --> 00:05:14,397
It eclipses all things,
57
00:05:14,522 --> 00:05:16,232
even blood.
58
00:05:17,734 --> 00:05:21,071
All men of honor
must pay its price.
59
00:05:25,408 --> 00:05:29,078
The North owes a great
duty to the Seven Kingdoms.
60
00:05:29,079 --> 00:05:31,872
One older than any oath.
61
00:05:31,873 --> 00:05:33,792
Since the days of the First Men,
62
00:05:33,917 --> 00:05:36,377
we have stood as guardians
63
00:05:36,378 --> 00:05:38,254
against the cold and the dark.
64
00:05:39,714 --> 00:05:41,424
Through its long tradition,
65
00:05:41,549 --> 00:05:43,634
the Night's Watch
cultivated its strength
66
00:05:43,635 --> 00:05:45,095
from doomed men
67
00:05:45,220 --> 00:05:47,846
who had their life as
their only possession.
68
00:05:47,847 --> 00:05:50,683
But my ancestor, Torrhen Stark,
69
00:05:50,684 --> 00:05:52,768
began a tradition by
making an offering
70
00:05:52,769 --> 00:05:55,105
at the onset of winter:
71
00:05:55,230 --> 00:05:57,564
one in 10 men from our household
72
00:05:57,565 --> 00:06:00,902
was to be chosen to
fortify the Watch.
73
00:06:03,488 --> 00:06:08,742
This is not a
sentence but an honor.
74
00:06:08,743 --> 00:06:12,831
A duty embraced by all
who serve the North.
75
00:06:12,956 --> 00:06:15,249
Even by mine own kin.
76
00:06:20,463 --> 00:06:22,966
The North must stand ready.
77
00:06:24,300 --> 00:06:25,718
Winter is coming.
78
00:06:25,719 --> 00:06:27,928
Coming? What is this, then,
79
00:06:27,929 --> 00:06:29,930
that falls from the skies
and shivers my bones?
80
00:06:29,931 --> 00:06:33,726
This is only a late
summer snow, my prince.
81
00:06:33,727 --> 00:06:36,145
In winter, it will
cover all you see,
82
00:06:36,146 --> 00:06:39,732
and all memories of
warmth will be forgotten.
83
00:06:39,733 --> 00:06:41,942
It pleases me to think
that over a century ago
84
00:06:41,943 --> 00:06:44,946
our ancestors treated
in this very place.
85
00:06:45,989 --> 00:06:48,158
The Conqueror and the
King in the North.
86
00:06:49,826 --> 00:06:51,536
You, at least, had the mercy
87
00:06:51,661 --> 00:06:53,830
not to threaten me
with your dragon.
88
00:07:02,297 --> 00:07:03,922
My prince.
89
00:07:03,923 --> 00:07:06,176
- My lord.
- My lord.
90
00:07:07,052 --> 00:07:08,260
M'lord.
91
00:07:08,261 --> 00:07:10,555
Surely the great Torrhen Stark
92
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,515
would've sooner died
than bent the knee.
93
00:07:13,516 --> 00:07:14,785
Unless he believed the Conqueror
94
00:07:14,809 --> 00:07:17,187
could bring unity to
the Seven Kingdoms.
95
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,022
You are right in that.
96
00:07:20,023 --> 00:07:22,484
That unity is now threatened.
97
00:07:23,193 --> 00:07:25,861
The realm will soon
tear itself apart...
98
00:07:25,862 --> 00:07:26,863
if men do not remember
99
00:07:26,988 --> 00:07:28,698
the oath sworn to King Viserys
100
00:07:29,032 --> 00:07:31,158
and to his rightful heir.
101
00:07:31,159 --> 00:07:34,829
Starks do not forget
their oaths, my prince.
102
00:07:35,205 --> 00:07:37,664
But you must know
that my gaze is
103
00:07:37,665 --> 00:07:40,210
forever torn between
north and south.
104
00:07:41,211 --> 00:07:44,589
In winter, my duty to the
Wall is even more dire
105
00:07:44,714 --> 00:07:46,424
than the one I owe
to King's Landing.
106
00:07:46,549 --> 00:07:48,634
I need my men here.
107
00:07:48,635 --> 00:07:49,843
Whilst your men guard against
108
00:07:49,844 --> 00:07:51,637
wildlings and weather,
109
00:07:51,638 --> 00:07:54,432
the Hightowers plan
to usurp the throne.
110
00:07:55,100 --> 00:07:57,435
If my mother is to
defend her claim
111
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,686
to hold the realm united,
112
00:07:58,687 --> 00:08:00,187
she needs an army.
113
00:08:00,188 --> 00:08:01,022
War is coming
114
00:08:01,023 --> 00:08:03,066
to the whole of
the realm, my lord.
115
00:08:03,191 --> 00:08:06,236
We cannot wage it without
the support of the North.
116
00:08:14,077 --> 00:08:16,036
My father brought King Jaehaerys
117
00:08:16,037 --> 00:08:18,456
and Queen Alysanne
to see the Wall.
118
00:08:19,082 --> 00:08:21,750
His Grace stood at
this very outlook
119
00:08:21,751 --> 00:08:23,795
and watched as their dragons,
120
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,423
the greatest power in the world,
121
00:08:26,548 --> 00:08:28,550
refused to cross it.
122
00:08:30,051 --> 00:08:31,844
Do you think my ancestors built
123
00:08:31,845 --> 00:08:33,887
a 700-foot wall of ice
124
00:08:33,888 --> 00:08:36,933
to keep out snow and savages?
125
00:08:37,058 --> 00:08:39,102
What does it keep out?
126
00:08:41,104 --> 00:08:42,438
Death.
127
00:08:50,238 --> 00:08:52,531
I have thousands of graybeards
128
00:08:52,532 --> 00:08:54,908
who've already seen
too many winters.
129
00:08:54,909 --> 00:08:58,412
They are... well-honed.
130
00:08:58,413 --> 00:09:00,790
So they're old?
131
00:09:00,915 --> 00:09:03,709
I can ready them
to march at once.
132
00:09:03,710 --> 00:09:05,003
If your graybeards can fight,
133
00:09:05,128 --> 00:09:07,463
the queen will have them.
134
00:09:07,464 --> 00:09:09,381
They will fight hard.
135
00:09:09,382 --> 00:09:10,967
Like Northerners.
136
00:09:11,092 --> 00:09:12,134
Stark captain: My lord?
137
00:09:12,135 --> 00:09:15,472
A raven's arrived.
138
00:09:15,597 --> 00:09:17,474
Urgent news from Dragonstone.
139
00:09:59,891 --> 00:10:03,395
Take your mount again.
We're flying out.
140
00:10:05,980 --> 00:10:09,567
I alone patrol over a
hundred miles of open sea,
141
00:10:09,693 --> 00:10:12,529
endlessly, to hold the blockade.
142
00:10:13,238 --> 00:10:17,033
Meleys must gorge
and rest, as must I.
143
00:10:18,243 --> 00:10:20,828
- We're going to King's Landing.
- To what end?
144
00:10:20,829 --> 00:10:22,287
Killing Vhagar.
145
00:10:22,288 --> 00:10:25,332
I cannot face that
hoary old bitch alone.
146
00:10:25,333 --> 00:10:26,959
With my dragon and
yours together,
147
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,670
we can kill Vhagar
and her rider.
148
00:10:29,671 --> 00:10:31,214
Make it a son for a son.
149
00:10:33,216 --> 00:10:35,927
- Was this the queen's command?
- The queen remains absent.
150
00:10:36,052 --> 00:10:37,970
I should be at
Harrenhal bending knees,
151
00:10:37,971 --> 00:10:40,724
but I must instead remain
here to wage her war.
152
00:10:40,849 --> 00:10:43,268
Or perhaps, more simply,
to await her return.
153
00:10:43,393 --> 00:10:46,771
She has been gone for days.
Too long. She is exposed.
154
00:10:46,896 --> 00:10:49,023
- She is grieving.
- The mother grieves
155
00:10:49,024 --> 00:10:51,568
as the queen shirks her duties.
156
00:10:53,361 --> 00:10:57,698
It was a raven that brought
me news of Laena's death.
157
00:10:57,699 --> 00:11:00,909
I existed for
weeks in torment...
158
00:11:00,910 --> 00:11:04,080
refusing to believe
what I'd been told.
159
00:11:05,749 --> 00:11:08,667
It was only when I saw my
daughter's mortal remains
160
00:11:08,668 --> 00:11:11,254
that I could begin to mourn her.
161
00:11:13,381 --> 00:11:17,260
A raven has told Rhaenyra
that her son is dead.
162
00:11:18,219 --> 00:11:19,762
She needs to know
it for certain.
163
00:11:19,763 --> 00:11:21,806
She was a fool to go alone.
164
00:11:22,432 --> 00:11:24,100
What if Aemond were
to happen upon her?
165
00:11:24,225 --> 00:11:26,269
Then I would pity Aemond.
166
00:11:28,772 --> 00:11:30,899
The queen was wise
to recuse herself.
167
00:11:31,775 --> 00:11:37,237
She has not acted on the vengeful
impulse that others might have.
168
00:11:37,238 --> 00:11:40,407
If you'd have acted when
you had the chance...
169
00:11:40,408 --> 00:11:43,411
Aegon's line would
be extinguished.
170
00:11:44,621 --> 00:11:47,082
And Luke would be alive.
171
00:11:53,963 --> 00:11:55,674
Fly with me.
172
00:11:56,299 --> 00:12:00,136
- It is a command.
- Would that you were the king.
173
00:13:09,873 --> 00:13:11,207
M'lord.
174
00:13:13,585 --> 00:13:17,213
It's a marvel she was able to
return from the Stepstones at all.
175
00:13:19,341 --> 00:13:21,176
Barely done, but done.
176
00:13:21,551 --> 00:13:25,263
Seven more ships put out to sea
this morn' to fortify the blockade.
177
00:13:25,388 --> 00:13:27,806
The Gullet is vast, and we're
not like to have the numbers
178
00:13:27,807 --> 00:13:30,226
to cover all that open water.
179
00:13:32,604 --> 00:13:34,646
Corlys Velaryon: I must
have my ship back at sea
180
00:13:34,647 --> 00:13:35,732
to lead the effort.
181
00:13:35,857 --> 00:13:38,735
Alyn of Hull: It'll be
many weeks yet, I'd wager.
182
00:13:40,403 --> 00:13:41,946
But I'll have a word
with my brother...
183
00:13:42,781 --> 00:13:46,409
to see what reinforcements
the shipwrights can muster.
184
00:13:56,086 --> 00:13:58,880
The smithy delivered
this earlier.
185
00:14:00,965 --> 00:14:02,384
M'lord?
186
00:14:10,725 --> 00:14:14,104
I had this commissioned
for Prince Lucerys.
187
00:14:15,897 --> 00:14:19,109
I was very sorry to hear
about your heir's death.
188
00:14:19,567 --> 00:14:21,778
'Twas the blackest
of treacheries.
189
00:14:24,781 --> 00:14:29,618
Pardon, m'lord, if it'll
please you, much to do.
190
00:14:29,619 --> 00:14:30,995
They tell me that
you are the one
191
00:14:31,121 --> 00:14:33,331
that dragged my
body out of the sea.
192
00:14:38,461 --> 00:14:40,338
It was only my duty.
193
00:14:44,634 --> 00:14:47,929
I am indebted to you, Alyn.
194
00:15:27,344 --> 00:15:29,304
Mind your posts!
195
00:15:32,015 --> 00:15:34,184
Keep your focus, men!
196
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,023
- Guard 1 : Dragon!
- Guard 2 : Dragon!
197
00:15:40,148 --> 00:15:41,524
Arm the scorpion!
198
00:15:41,649 --> 00:15:44,194
Guard 1: Arm the scorpion!
199
00:15:45,653 --> 00:15:48,155
Approaching from the southeast!
200
00:15:48,156 --> 00:15:49,366
Get around!
201
00:15:54,037 --> 00:15:55,454
guard: Scorpion ready!
202
00:15:55,455 --> 00:15:58,374
- Arryk Cargyll : Halt!
- Guard : Halt!
203
00:16:00,835 --> 00:16:02,127
Stand down, it's Vhagar!
204
00:16:02,128 --> 00:16:04,046
Guard 2: Stand down!
205
00:16:04,047 --> 00:16:06,007
Guard 1: Standing down!
206
00:16:32,909 --> 00:16:34,744
Where is Jaehaerys?
207
00:16:36,079 --> 00:16:38,248
Attending his lessons.
208
00:16:38,915 --> 00:16:40,417
And those are where?
209
00:16:40,542 --> 00:16:42,042
What do you need of him?
210
00:16:42,043 --> 00:16:44,169
Taking him to the small council.
211
00:16:44,170 --> 00:16:45,212
He'll be king one day.
212
00:16:45,213 --> 00:16:47,215
He must begin his instruction.
213
00:16:47,549 --> 00:16:49,926
What if he does not
want to be king?
214
00:16:51,052 --> 00:16:52,261
Where is he?
215
00:16:52,262 --> 00:16:53,430
The library.
216
00:16:53,722 --> 00:16:56,433
You must not
interrupt his custom.
217
00:17:03,106 --> 00:17:04,774
I'm afraid.
218
00:17:07,152 --> 00:17:08,319
Don't be.
219
00:17:08,945 --> 00:17:11,864
They'd be fools to come with
Vhagar protecting the city.
220
00:17:11,865 --> 00:17:13,950
Not the dragons.
221
00:17:14,826 --> 00:17:15,994
The rats.
222
00:17:24,794 --> 00:17:27,589
The queen is an
enduring mystery...
223
00:17:28,131 --> 00:17:29,674
is she not?
224
00:18:03,375 --> 00:18:05,377
There's a chill in the air.
225
00:18:09,464 --> 00:18:11,841
Summer is well
and truly through.
226
00:18:13,009 --> 00:18:16,054
We are expected at the
small council, Your Grace.
227
00:18:31,861 --> 00:18:33,363
We cannot.
228
00:18:33,905 --> 00:18:35,073
Again.
229
00:18:38,076 --> 00:18:39,828
Yes, Your Grace.
230
00:18:44,374 --> 00:18:46,543
If you wouldn't mind?
231
00:19:19,242 --> 00:19:21,910
- Tyland Lannister: Your Grace.
- Alicent Hightower: Good day.
232
00:19:26,082 --> 00:19:28,561
Aegon Targaryen: Hello! Jaehaerys
must learn the ways of the court
233
00:19:28,585 --> 00:19:30,502
if he is to rule one day.
234
00:19:30,503 --> 00:19:32,922
Up we go.
235
00:19:33,757 --> 00:19:36,216
Good morrow, my lords.
236
00:19:36,217 --> 00:19:37,469
Mother.
237
00:19:39,429 --> 00:19:41,055
What news?
238
00:19:41,056 --> 00:19:43,682
Otto Hightower: Our letters
to the Vale and to the North
239
00:19:43,683 --> 00:19:46,102
continue to go unanswered.
240
00:19:46,770 --> 00:19:47,771
Cunts.
241
00:19:49,272 --> 00:19:51,565
Otto: The Stormlands
should be ours
242
00:19:51,566 --> 00:19:53,318
after Prince Aemond's
marriage pact
243
00:19:53,443 --> 00:19:55,527
to the Lady Floris Baratheon.
244
00:19:55,528 --> 00:19:57,696
I anticipate their
sworn declaration.
245
00:19:57,697 --> 00:20:01,784
My brother is raising
the strength of the West
246
00:20:01,785 --> 00:20:05,079
to mass at the Golden
Tooth, but we...
247
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:06,622
Yeah, thank you, my prince.
248
00:20:06,623 --> 00:20:09,125
That's, that's very helpful.
249
00:20:09,250 --> 00:20:10,584
My nephew, Lord Ormund,
250
00:20:10,585 --> 00:20:13,796
musters his forces to
sally forth from Oldtown.
251
00:20:13,797 --> 00:20:15,214
They expect to march quickly,
252
00:20:15,215 --> 00:20:18,802
meeting little resistance,
until they reach the Riverlands.
253
00:20:18,927 --> 00:20:20,803
My letters to Rhaenyra.
Has there been any answer?
254
00:20:20,804 --> 00:20:23,555
An apology for her dead son?
255
00:20:23,556 --> 00:20:24,974
None, Your Grace.
256
00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:27,185
Between that and their
blockade of the Gullet,
257
00:20:27,310 --> 00:20:29,436
we must presume that
the princess has refused
258
00:20:29,437 --> 00:20:30,855
the offered terms,
259
00:20:30,980 --> 00:20:33,358
and that war is now inevitable.
260
00:20:33,483 --> 00:20:35,628
- Jaehaerys Targaryen: Na-na!
- Perhaps Your Grace might lend
261
00:20:35,652 --> 00:20:37,987
- his voice to our outreach...
- Tyland: Stop! Enough!
262
00:20:38,655 --> 00:20:40,906
In hopes that new terms
might, might be negotiated.
263
00:20:40,907 --> 00:20:43,826
Release it at once!
Would someone please?
264
00:20:43,827 --> 00:20:46,996
Is the heir to the throne
bothering you, Tyland?
265
00:20:48,206 --> 00:20:51,876
No. No, no, not, not in
the least, Your Grace.
266
00:20:52,002 --> 00:20:54,461
Because I think he wants a ride.
267
00:20:54,462 --> 00:20:55,940
- Alicent: Your Grace.
- Tyland: Uh, a ride?
268
00:20:55,964 --> 00:20:57,297
A pony ride.
269
00:20:57,298 --> 00:20:58,799
Wouldn't that be fun, Jaehaerys?
270
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,344
Should the Master of
Coin be your royal steed?
271
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,063
Your Grace!
272
00:21:12,856 --> 00:21:15,191
There are important
matters to discuss...
273
00:21:16,526 --> 00:21:18,570
despite Sir Tyland's
interruptions.
274
00:21:20,030 --> 00:21:21,364
Aegon: Very well.
275
00:21:21,990 --> 00:21:24,701
No time for amusements, Tyland.
276
00:21:26,036 --> 00:21:27,203
Your Grace.
277
00:21:28,038 --> 00:21:30,832
Aegon: Off you go,
Jaehaerys. Good boy.
278
00:21:33,209 --> 00:21:34,878
Where were we?
279
00:21:36,087 --> 00:21:40,425
Rhaenyra's blockade has placed
King's Landing under strain.
280
00:21:40,550 --> 00:21:42,719
And those pressures
will multiply quickly.
281
00:21:42,844 --> 00:21:44,864
Well, we should've just killed
her when we had the chance.
282
00:21:44,888 --> 00:21:48,349
Regrettably, the opportunity
for surprise has been lost,
283
00:21:48,350 --> 00:21:52,562
and with it, the chance to
end this conflict quickly.
284
00:21:53,688 --> 00:21:55,689
We must play the
board before us.
285
00:21:55,690 --> 00:21:58,233
Tyland: If we are to break
the Sea Snake's blockade,
286
00:21:58,234 --> 00:22:00,986
we will need to bolster both the
Lannister and Hightower navies.
287
00:22:00,987 --> 00:22:03,740
We do have need for a
new Master of Ships.
288
00:22:03,865 --> 00:22:07,034
We could offer the title to
the young Lord Dalton Greyjoy.
289
00:22:07,035 --> 00:22:09,411
Aemond. What is
your business here?
290
00:22:09,412 --> 00:22:10,580
The king summoned me.
291
00:22:10,705 --> 00:22:12,247
You do not have a
seat at this council.
292
00:22:12,248 --> 00:22:15,668
Aemond is my closest
blood and our best sword.
293
00:22:15,669 --> 00:22:17,253
I welcome him.
294
00:22:17,879 --> 00:22:20,799
Path to King's Landing is
through the Riverlands.
295
00:22:20,924 --> 00:22:24,343
We must establish a toehold
there, at Harrenhal.
296
00:22:24,344 --> 00:22:26,553
Aegon: The Riverlords will
either declare for me,
297
00:22:26,554 --> 00:22:29,390
or they will meet Vhagar
and Sunfyre together.
298
00:22:29,391 --> 00:22:31,850
Ah, and-and we can burn the
blockade while we're at it.
299
00:22:31,851 --> 00:22:33,704
- Rhaenyra has dragons as well.
- Mine are bigger.
300
00:22:33,728 --> 00:22:36,397
If we lose the dragons to war,
there'll be no calling them back.
301
00:22:36,398 --> 00:22:37,898
- We must proceed cautiously.
- No.
302
00:22:37,899 --> 00:22:42,194
Fat, old Lord Tully will either
raise my banner or see his burn.
303
00:22:42,195 --> 00:22:44,322
We should fly to Riverrun.
304
00:22:44,656 --> 00:22:46,324
You are the king, Your Grace.
305
00:22:46,449 --> 00:22:47,741
You must not put
yourself at risk.
306
00:22:47,742 --> 00:22:50,536
And Vhagar is needed here to
deter Rhaenyra from attacking
307
00:22:50,537 --> 00:22:53,289
in retribution for
the death of her son.
308
00:22:54,124 --> 00:22:58,585
Errors were made in the hours
following King Viserys's death.
309
00:22:58,586 --> 00:23:01,006
We mustn't compound them.
310
00:23:02,298 --> 00:23:04,967
You've already demonstrated
your might, Your Grace.
311
00:23:04,968 --> 00:23:09,430
We must now favor
patience and restraint.
312
00:23:09,431 --> 00:23:11,056
I send ravens by the hour.
313
00:23:11,057 --> 00:23:15,561
Many and more houses will
declare for you in time.
314
00:23:15,562 --> 00:23:18,982
History and precedent
will come to your side.
315
00:23:26,614 --> 00:23:27,699
Good morrow, Your Grace.
316
00:23:27,824 --> 00:23:29,450
Good morrow, Lord Larys.
317
00:23:29,451 --> 00:23:31,369
I had come earlier
to have a word
318
00:23:31,494 --> 00:23:33,038
before the small
council convened,
319
00:23:33,163 --> 00:23:37,959
but your handmaiden said
that you were indisposed.
320
00:23:40,962 --> 00:23:43,214
What is it you wish to discuss?
321
00:23:45,008 --> 00:23:49,595
I have completed questioning
the whole of the castle staff.
322
00:23:49,596 --> 00:23:51,305
They produced rather
interesting details,
323
00:23:51,306 --> 00:23:56,311
but I am satisfied I have exposed
all who betrayed our trust.
324
00:23:58,188 --> 00:23:59,356
And what of them?
325
00:24:00,690 --> 00:24:03,026
They no longer breathe our air.
326
00:24:05,028 --> 00:24:08,865
I have chosen your
new staff personally.
327
00:24:27,050 --> 00:24:29,427
St... Gi-Give me that.
328
00:24:29,552 --> 00:24:30,887
Maidservant: Your Grace?
329
00:24:31,429 --> 00:24:33,431
Just leave me.
330
00:24:35,016 --> 00:24:37,227
Just le... Just
le... Just leave me.
331
00:25:19,936 --> 00:25:22,272
- It's a dragon wing!
- Let's have a look!
332
00:25:23,773 --> 00:25:25,942
- It's a wing.
- Who cares what it is.
333
00:25:26,651 --> 00:25:28,319
Dragon!
334
00:26:55,031 --> 00:26:58,076
Leon Estermont: All
hail King Aegon!
335
00:26:58,201 --> 00:27:00,661
"Aegon the Magnanimous,"
336
00:27:00,662 --> 00:27:03,206
Second of His Name,
King of the Andals,
337
00:27:03,331 --> 00:27:05,541
and the Rhoynar,
and the First Men,
338
00:27:05,542 --> 00:27:08,920
Lord of the Seven Kingdoms,
and Protector of the Realm.
339
00:27:09,045 --> 00:27:11,714
Hail King Aegon!
340
00:27:11,715 --> 00:27:13,508
"The Magnanimous"?
341
00:27:17,220 --> 00:27:18,221
Your Grace.
342
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:22,183
Let's have the first
petition, my good Lord Hand.
343
00:27:26,271 --> 00:27:28,106
Good morrow, my,
uh, Your Grace.
344
00:27:28,231 --> 00:27:29,607
Aegon: It's alright.
345
00:27:29,733 --> 00:27:31,692
There's no reason to be nervous.
346
00:27:31,693 --> 00:27:32,818
What's your name?
347
00:27:32,819 --> 00:27:35,029
Gr... Uh, Jerard, Your Grace.
348
00:27:35,030 --> 00:27:37,073
Good morrow, Jerard.
349
00:27:37,198 --> 00:27:39,784
And how might your
king be of service?
350
00:27:39,909 --> 00:27:42,327
'Tis my flock.
351
00:27:42,328 --> 00:27:46,291
Uh, a-a-a tenth of
them taken by...
352
00:27:48,084 --> 00:27:51,003
the Crown on...
353
00:27:51,004 --> 00:27:53,213
on the cusp of winter.
354
00:27:53,214 --> 00:27:56,426
- If I'd had the time to plan...
- We should return them.
355
00:27:59,304 --> 00:28:00,888
- Your Grace?
- Aegon: Well, you need
356
00:28:00,889 --> 00:28:02,389
your goats for the
winter, don't you?
357
00:28:02,390 --> 00:28:05,267
- Sheep, Your-Your Grace.
- Aegon: Sheep, even better.
358
00:28:05,268 --> 00:28:07,770
I shall make your
flock of sheep whole.
359
00:28:09,397 --> 00:28:11,983
We already made a promise
to all the Crownlands
360
00:28:12,108 --> 00:28:14,319
that a tithing of livestock
361
00:28:14,444 --> 00:28:16,737
would be necessary to
sustain the dragons
362
00:28:16,738 --> 00:28:18,113
for their increased activity
363
00:28:18,114 --> 00:28:21,826
and, pray not,
eventual fighting.
364
00:28:21,951 --> 00:28:23,744
Right... Right.
365
00:28:23,745 --> 00:28:26,956
Perhaps we could just return
his sheep. He came all this way.
366
00:28:27,082 --> 00:28:29,501
If you return one herder's
sheep, Your Grace,
367
00:28:29,626 --> 00:28:32,086
you will soon find them all
at the foot of your throne
368
00:28:32,087 --> 00:28:34,546
expecting the same.
369
00:28:34,547 --> 00:28:35,965
They won't know.
370
00:28:36,091 --> 00:28:42,091
When the king speaks,
Your Grace, all hear it.
371
00:28:50,939 --> 00:28:53,858
After further thought,
I have decided that
372
00:28:53,983 --> 00:28:56,235
I cannot restore your sheep.
373
00:28:56,236 --> 00:28:57,653
If war were to break out,
374
00:28:57,654 --> 00:28:59,364
my dragons will require feed.
375
00:28:59,489 --> 00:29:02,241
Bring the next.
376
00:29:02,242 --> 00:29:05,994
guildmaster: Salts always run
scarce on the road to winter,
377
00:29:05,995 --> 00:29:06,996
Your Grace.
378
00:29:07,122 --> 00:29:08,914
We rely on ships from Essos
379
00:29:08,915 --> 00:29:10,333
for our supply.
380
00:29:10,458 --> 00:29:13,545
But now, with a blockade in
place and war threatening...
381
00:29:13,670 --> 00:29:15,796
Yeah, that treasonous
blockade won't last long.
382
00:29:15,797 --> 00:29:18,424
I plan to send Vhagar
to burn it to ash.
383
00:29:18,425 --> 00:29:19,675
Bring the next.
384
00:29:23,722 --> 00:29:25,473
Hugh, Your Grace.
385
00:29:28,852 --> 00:29:30,185
The smiths are all proud
386
00:29:30,186 --> 00:29:32,647
to support Your Grace
against Rhaenyra.
387
00:29:36,401 --> 00:29:37,401
But?
388
00:29:37,485 --> 00:29:38,653
But...
389
00:29:40,196 --> 00:29:42,365
iron costs have grown.
390
00:29:43,158 --> 00:29:46,703
A lone scorpion
takes weeks to build.
391
00:29:47,328 --> 00:29:49,706
To put it simply,
we are struggling.
392
00:29:50,373 --> 00:29:54,877
If we could but have the Crown's
coin before we started work,
393
00:29:54,878 --> 00:29:56,670
it would bring great relief.
394
00:29:56,671 --> 00:30:00,383
Not just to me, but to all
the smiths serving your cause.
395
00:30:04,888 --> 00:30:07,891
You shall be paid and paid well.
396
00:30:08,224 --> 00:30:10,392
My army cannot win a war
without your weapons.
397
00:30:10,393 --> 00:30:12,437
You should continue
their making.
398
00:30:12,729 --> 00:30:16,775
Our victory depends on the
efforts of the smallfolk.
399
00:30:19,110 --> 00:30:21,571
You have my most sincere
gratitude, Your Grace.
400
00:30:22,238 --> 00:30:24,908
Aegon: I'll hear
the next petition.
401
00:30:31,748 --> 00:30:34,668
Larys Strong: Your Grace, it filled my
heart to see you on the Iron Throne.
402
00:30:34,709 --> 00:30:37,962
I was only a boy when
Jaehaerys last graced the seat,
403
00:30:38,088 --> 00:30:39,338
but you brought forth
memories of him,
404
00:30:39,339 --> 00:30:41,633
and you have such a deft
touch with the smallfolk,
405
00:30:41,758 --> 00:30:43,509
just as your father did.
406
00:30:43,510 --> 00:30:44,928
Thank you, my lord.
407
00:30:45,303 --> 00:30:47,722
I wonder, do you have a
moment for a quiet word?
408
00:30:53,603 --> 00:30:57,022
It is the Hand's wont to
keep a firm grip on things.
409
00:30:57,023 --> 00:30:59,191
Mm.
410
00:30:59,192 --> 00:31:01,444
He controlled your
father the same way.
411
00:31:02,779 --> 00:31:05,657
Viserys had a certain
reputation as being pliable.
412
00:31:05,782 --> 00:31:07,283
I am aware.
413
00:31:08,618 --> 00:31:11,036
I would think, as
we find ourselves
414
00:31:11,037 --> 00:31:13,247
standing within a
hair's breadth of war,
415
00:31:13,248 --> 00:31:16,459
that you would wish to
be viewed differently.
416
00:31:19,629 --> 00:31:20,879
How?
417
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:22,674
Otto Hightower...
418
00:31:24,009 --> 00:31:27,137
was your father's
Hand, Your Grace.
419
00:31:43,653 --> 00:31:44,821
Daughter.
420
00:31:45,989 --> 00:31:48,700
I requested an
audience hours ago.
421
00:31:49,993 --> 00:31:53,830
There were many petitions.
422
00:31:56,332 --> 00:31:58,460
Alicent: I find
myself wondering...
423
00:31:59,336 --> 00:32:01,379
do we pursue the same end?
424
00:32:03,048 --> 00:32:06,843
I must admit, there are days
where I myself can't be sure.
425
00:32:08,386 --> 00:32:10,638
I shall tell you mine.
426
00:32:12,140 --> 00:32:13,474
It's victory.
427
00:32:13,475 --> 00:32:16,352
And how would you
define "victory"?
428
00:32:16,353 --> 00:32:18,312
Rhaenyra bending the knee
429
00:32:18,313 --> 00:32:21,232
and Aegon sitting the
Iron Throne, in peace.
430
00:32:21,858 --> 00:32:23,234
As Viserys wished.
431
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,987
Well, if that's how you describe
it, then we are aligned.
432
00:32:26,988 --> 00:32:29,074
- Then be my ally.
- I am.
433
00:32:29,199 --> 00:32:30,759
An ally would not
repeatedly cut my legs
434
00:32:30,825 --> 00:32:32,744
from beneath me at
that table of men!
435
00:32:32,869 --> 00:32:36,497
- I sit there and I feel your anger.
- Frustration.
436
00:32:36,498 --> 00:32:38,874
These critical days
since Viserys's passing
437
00:32:38,875 --> 00:32:42,212
- haven't gone to plan.
- That's not my fault.
438
00:32:43,421 --> 00:32:46,383
My sons both see you
as the great example.
439
00:32:46,508 --> 00:32:47,842
The Hand to three kings.
440
00:32:49,386 --> 00:32:51,221
Aegon is ever-eager
to prove himself
441
00:32:51,346 --> 00:32:52,889
and Aemond...
442
00:32:54,349 --> 00:32:57,394
Aemond is angry.
443
00:32:57,519 --> 00:32:59,938
Rhaenyra's son took his eye
and was never punished for it.
444
00:33:00,063 --> 00:33:04,901
- What he did, however vicious...
- The caprice of youth.
445
00:33:08,947 --> 00:33:10,782
I could only hope.
446
00:33:10,907 --> 00:33:12,909
Aemond erred.
447
00:33:13,785 --> 00:33:17,329
But he is fiercely loyal.
He wishes to please.
448
00:33:17,330 --> 00:33:19,081
And Aegon still heeds me.
449
00:33:19,082 --> 00:33:20,792
In private, at least.
450
00:33:22,252 --> 00:33:23,544
But if you undermine my voice,
451
00:33:23,545 --> 00:33:25,421
both those boys will
grow deaf to it.
452
00:33:33,972 --> 00:33:35,932
I hadn't seen it that way.
453
00:33:36,391 --> 00:33:38,309
We only need to mind Aegon
454
00:33:38,435 --> 00:33:40,770
until the novelty
of rule is spent.
455
00:33:41,479 --> 00:33:44,565
Once he tires of it, you and I
can steer our cause to victory.
456
00:33:44,566 --> 00:33:47,318
A fine strategy, daughter.
457
00:33:47,902 --> 00:33:53,783
But you must accept that the path
to victory now is one of violence.
458
00:33:54,784 --> 00:33:56,453
I know it.
459
00:33:59,914 --> 00:34:02,459
But that does not mean
it must be wanton.
460
00:34:04,753 --> 00:34:05,754
No.
461
00:34:22,312 --> 00:34:24,814
solider: Prepare
to be boarded!
462
00:34:27,317 --> 00:34:30,362
By the order of Lord
Corlys Velaryon!
463
00:34:30,487 --> 00:34:33,113
Erryk Cargyll: Search
the hold for stowaways!
464
00:35:00,850 --> 00:35:01,851
You.
465
00:35:04,229 --> 00:35:07,649
When last we met,
there were two of you.
466
00:35:09,859 --> 00:35:10,984
"The White Worm."
467
00:35:10,985 --> 00:35:13,654
Mysaria: Did you think I
would wither in your absence?
468
00:35:13,655 --> 00:35:15,698
I did not think you
would flower a traitor.
469
00:35:15,699 --> 00:35:18,951
You speak of highborn
games. I am common-born.
470
00:35:18,952 --> 00:35:21,538
How long have you been selling
secrets to Otto Hightower?
471
00:35:21,663 --> 00:35:23,873
As long as he had
gold to pay for them.
472
00:35:25,917 --> 00:35:30,547
Who sent you fleeing from King's
Landing in such disrepair, hm?
473
00:35:31,715 --> 00:35:33,716
You put Aegon on the throne.
474
00:35:33,717 --> 00:35:35,801
That was the
Hightowers' conspiracy.
475
00:35:35,802 --> 00:35:38,430
I merely profited from
knowing Aegon's movements.
476
00:35:38,555 --> 00:35:39,889
But you delivered him.
477
00:35:40,015 --> 00:35:43,058
He would've returned home
eventually for gold and for respite,
478
00:35:43,059 --> 00:35:43,977
as he always does.
479
00:35:43,978 --> 00:35:47,063
I simply... simply sped
the business along.
480
00:35:47,188 --> 00:35:49,314
"Business" that ended with the
theft of the queen's throne
481
00:35:49,315 --> 00:35:50,524
and the murder of her son.
482
00:35:50,525 --> 00:35:52,484
You only blame me
because your true enemies
483
00:35:52,485 --> 00:35:54,446
are out of reach.
484
00:35:55,739 --> 00:35:57,197
My arrangement with the Hand
485
00:35:57,198 --> 00:35:58,657
was purely transactional.
486
00:35:58,658 --> 00:36:01,368
I held no loyalty to him.
487
00:36:01,369 --> 00:36:03,413
Certainly do not now.
488
00:36:03,872 --> 00:36:08,585
Otto Hightower was to me as I am to
your noble ilk, fodder to be cast off.
489
00:36:08,710 --> 00:36:10,336
What else do you know
of him? His plans?
490
00:36:10,337 --> 00:36:12,088
Little and less.
491
00:36:15,258 --> 00:36:18,636
I possess nothing of
value to you, Daemon.
492
00:36:41,451 --> 00:36:42,827
Have her moved to the cells.
493
00:36:42,952 --> 00:36:45,789
She is to be treated as
a traitor to the crown.
494
00:36:48,458 --> 00:36:50,376
Erryk: Forgive
me, my prince...
495
00:36:50,377 --> 00:36:51,877
but the lady speaks the truth.
496
00:36:51,878 --> 00:36:55,298
- She was no agent of the Hightowers.
- What is it to you?
497
00:36:55,799 --> 00:36:58,550
- A matter of honor.
- Was it honor that made you stand by and watch
498
00:36:58,551 --> 00:37:01,304
as the Hightowers
usurped the throne?
499
00:37:01,429 --> 00:37:03,972
You and your traitorous twin.
500
00:37:03,973 --> 00:37:06,017
No, my prince.
501
00:37:07,310 --> 00:37:08,853
I'm shamed by it.
502
00:37:09,354 --> 00:37:11,481
That's why I abandoned
the Kingsguard,
503
00:37:11,606 --> 00:37:13,482
and my brother, and came here.
504
00:37:13,483 --> 00:37:16,068
I don't care.
505
00:37:16,069 --> 00:37:16,903
Aegon was in your grasp.
506
00:37:16,904 --> 00:37:18,822
You should've
killed him yourself.
507
00:37:18,947 --> 00:37:22,491
Arryk and I were named to the
Kingsguard at just 8 and 10.
508
00:37:22,492 --> 00:37:24,660
And we swore the same oath:
509
00:37:24,661 --> 00:37:27,122
to defend the whole
of the royal family.
510
00:37:28,164 --> 00:37:31,501
So what were we to do when they
turned against one another?
511
00:38:00,030 --> 00:38:04,283
Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen,
the First of Her Name,
512
00:38:04,284 --> 00:38:08,787
Queen of the Andals, and the
Rhoynar, and the First Men,
513
00:38:08,788 --> 00:38:13,042
Lady of the Seven Kingdoms,
and Protector of the Realm.
514
00:38:18,882 --> 00:38:21,259
Did you find what you needed?
515
00:38:29,726 --> 00:38:32,687
Your council stands at
the ready, Your Grace.
516
00:38:36,566 --> 00:38:38,901
I will fly to Harrenhal
at your command
517
00:38:38,902 --> 00:38:41,196
and set our toehold
in the Riverlands.
518
00:38:41,946 --> 00:38:44,282
Your Grace, my lord husband's
blockade of the Gullet
519
00:38:44,407 --> 00:38:45,325
moves into place.
520
00:38:45,326 --> 00:38:46,533
All seaborne travel and trade
521
00:38:46,534 --> 00:38:48,912
to King's Landing
will soon be cut off.
522
00:38:54,793 --> 00:38:58,213
I want Aemond Targaryen.
523
00:39:46,511 --> 00:39:49,096
In your years as a
merchant of gossip,
524
00:39:49,097 --> 00:39:51,765
you surely accumulated
spies within the Red Keep.
525
00:39:51,766 --> 00:39:53,976
Servants who knew the
comings and goings.
526
00:39:53,977 --> 00:39:55,936
Scheme with someone
else, Daemon.
527
00:39:55,937 --> 00:39:59,774
I was once in your
thrall, but no longer.
528
00:40:00,608 --> 00:40:02,485
A transaction, then.
529
00:40:03,028 --> 00:40:06,448
Your knowledge in
exchange for your freedom.
530
00:40:33,683 --> 00:40:35,018
Your Grace.
531
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:42,107
Lady Jeyne Arryn has
pledged her support
532
00:40:42,108 --> 00:40:45,362
in exchange for a dragon
to guard the Vale.
533
00:40:47,906 --> 00:40:51,159
And Lord Cregan Stark...
534
00:40:53,870 --> 00:40:56,873
has promised 2,000 men...
535
00:41:42,252 --> 00:41:43,920
Alyrie Florent.
536
00:42:13,783 --> 00:42:15,952
Viserys Targaryen.
537
00:43:11,341 --> 00:43:15,512
Lucerys Velaryon.
538
00:44:10,358 --> 00:44:11,443
A tribute.
539
00:44:20,368 --> 00:44:21,786
Commander?
540
00:44:21,911 --> 00:44:24,080
Never gone for long.
541
00:44:25,540 --> 00:44:28,960
I'm told you bear a
mislike for the Hightowers.
542
00:44:30,086 --> 00:44:32,464
Fuck the Hightowers.
543
00:44:37,761 --> 00:44:39,428
Keep walking.
544
00:44:43,099 --> 00:44:45,268
Don't make trouble.
545
00:44:52,942 --> 00:44:54,401
Daemon Targaryen:
The White Worm said
546
00:44:54,402 --> 00:44:56,362
you're one of
Aegon's ratcatchers.
547
00:44:56,363 --> 00:45:00,408
You must be busy. That castle
positively crawls with them now.
548
00:45:01,451 --> 00:45:03,452
I heard the White
Worm were dead.
549
00:45:03,453 --> 00:45:05,788
Her ghost told me you
were a betting man.
550
00:45:05,789 --> 00:45:11,085
- Fighting pits?
- Dogs... and bones.
551
00:45:11,086 --> 00:45:13,129
How deep are your debts?
552
00:45:20,303 --> 00:45:22,138
I was also given to
understand that you possess
553
00:45:22,263 --> 00:45:24,431
a unique knowledge
of the Red Keep.
554
00:45:24,432 --> 00:45:26,309
Maegor's tunnels.
555
00:45:26,434 --> 00:45:28,520
Great big rat's nest, it is.
556
00:45:29,479 --> 00:45:32,774
I know them better than
the shape of my own cock.
557
00:45:35,151 --> 00:45:36,528
This is my friend.
558
00:45:37,654 --> 00:45:40,156
Tonight, he's going
to be your friend.
559
00:45:40,824 --> 00:45:44,160
You're to find and slay the
Prince Aemond Targaryen.
560
00:45:45,203 --> 00:45:47,830
He has silver hair and one eye.
561
00:45:47,831 --> 00:45:50,458
Should be easy enough to find.
562
00:45:52,002 --> 00:45:53,627
But I understand he's
quite good in a fight.
563
00:45:53,628 --> 00:45:55,547
You'll want to take caution.
564
00:45:57,048 --> 00:46:00,802
That's one half. You'll get
the other when it's done.
565
00:46:12,689 --> 00:46:14,024
Alright.
566
00:46:16,026 --> 00:46:17,819
What if we can't find him?
567
00:46:22,032 --> 00:46:25,826
We've wasted precious days in
this war of quills and ravens.
568
00:46:25,827 --> 00:46:28,705
Words are wind.
569
00:46:28,830 --> 00:46:31,040
You should be leading the van,
570
00:46:31,041 --> 00:46:33,500
and I should be flying
cover on Vhagar.
571
00:46:33,501 --> 00:46:36,879
No castle would dare to raise
Rhaenyra's banner against us.
572
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:40,091
We would bring the whole of the
Crownlands to heel in weeks.
573
00:46:40,216 --> 00:46:43,010
Well, mayhaps we could
petition the king,
574
00:46:43,011 --> 00:46:46,264
privately, to send us out.
575
00:46:47,891 --> 00:46:49,641
Rosby and Stokeworth,
576
00:46:49,642 --> 00:46:53,145
small castles right in the
shadow of King's Landing.
577
00:46:53,146 --> 00:46:54,813
They would not want
us for enemies.
578
00:46:54,814 --> 00:46:57,233
We could add their
levies to our own.
579
00:46:58,234 --> 00:47:00,862
Our host growing as we advance.
580
00:47:03,031 --> 00:47:05,450
Uh, it is a canny scheme.
581
00:47:05,950 --> 00:47:07,410
But moot.
582
00:47:07,535 --> 00:47:10,455
My brother is hostage to
my grandsire and mother,
583
00:47:10,580 --> 00:47:14,084
and they tell him that a war
of dragons can yet be avoided.
584
00:47:14,209 --> 00:47:17,253
'Tis inevitable.
They must see that.
585
00:47:17,379 --> 00:47:19,714
Otto fears to upset
the order of things.
586
00:47:20,924 --> 00:47:23,093
And Alicent is simply...
587
00:47:24,052 --> 00:47:25,470
angry.
588
00:47:26,304 --> 00:47:29,682
- Angry?
- She blames me for starting this war
589
00:47:29,683 --> 00:47:34,145
after she plotted with my father's
council to usurp his throne.
590
00:47:35,563 --> 00:47:39,150
"Her Grace" speaks
with two tongues.
591
00:47:42,821 --> 00:47:45,073
She has a gentle heart.
592
00:47:45,573 --> 00:47:48,284
And Rhaenyra is
a cunning spider.
593
00:47:48,618 --> 00:47:52,788
Long ago, she drew
Alicent into her web...
594
00:47:52,789 --> 00:47:54,749
intoxicated her.
595
00:47:56,167 --> 00:47:58,294
It is not your mother's fault.
596
00:47:59,462 --> 00:48:01,840
She holds love for our enemy.
597
00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:05,802
That makes her a fool.
598
00:48:22,485 --> 00:48:23,653
Lord Hand.
599
00:48:33,329 --> 00:48:35,247
Return to your post,
Lord Commander.
600
00:48:35,248 --> 00:48:37,667
I must have a word
with the prince.
601
00:48:51,473 --> 00:48:53,183
It would concern me, grandson,
602
00:48:53,308 --> 00:48:54,684
if plans were being considered
603
00:48:54,809 --> 00:48:58,563
beyond the ears of
your king and his Hand.
604
00:48:59,147 --> 00:49:01,190
You have a zeal to
act. I understand.
605
00:49:01,191 --> 00:49:02,525
I was young once myself...
606
00:49:02,650 --> 00:49:05,862
I only wish to serve
my king and my house.
607
00:49:11,993 --> 00:49:13,411
You and Vhagar
608
00:49:13,536 --> 00:49:16,706
are the greatest single
power in the realm.
609
00:49:18,708 --> 00:49:22,504
If it wasn't obvious
before, it certainly is now.
610
00:49:27,217 --> 00:49:30,428
But there are many
pieces at play here...
611
00:49:31,388 --> 00:49:34,391
some of which you can't yet see.
612
00:49:35,100 --> 00:49:36,935
I promise you,
Aemond, you will have
613
00:49:37,060 --> 00:49:38,686
all the vengeance that you seek,
614
00:49:38,687 --> 00:49:42,524
but you must keep a
grip on your impulses.
615
00:49:45,068 --> 00:49:47,737
We both know that
your brother cannot.
616
00:50:04,254 --> 00:50:06,631
Cheese: Alright.
617
00:50:39,956 --> 00:50:41,332
Take that.
618
00:50:46,838 --> 00:50:48,590
Bring the dog.
619
00:51:15,033 --> 00:51:17,493
Aegon: I need to be a
symbol for the smallfolk,
620
00:51:17,494 --> 00:51:19,371
- as well as the nobility.
- Cheese: Wait.
621
00:51:19,496 --> 00:51:21,163
Speaker: You could always be
622
00:51:21,164 --> 00:51:22,664
"Aegon the Strong."
623
00:51:22,665 --> 00:51:24,500
Aegon: My nephew's
already taken that one.
624
00:51:24,501 --> 00:51:26,335
Leon: Well, which would
Your Grace prefer?
625
00:51:26,336 --> 00:51:28,213
- It's the king.
- Leon: To be loved or feared?
626
00:51:28,338 --> 00:51:29,588
Aegon: I need to be both.
627
00:51:29,589 --> 00:51:32,008
My mother and grandsire
628
00:51:32,133 --> 00:51:34,551
mind me like some
helpless duckling.
629
00:51:34,552 --> 00:51:36,388
Oh, well, you're the king.
630
00:51:36,513 --> 00:51:37,753
Who gives a shit what they say?
631
00:51:37,806 --> 00:51:40,516
My brother, at least,
knows his place.
632
00:51:40,517 --> 00:51:42,601
He's as loyal as a hound.
633
00:51:42,602 --> 00:51:46,356
I can set him and his
dragon on my foes at will.
634
00:51:47,857 --> 00:51:49,960
- Cheese: Keep your eyes down.
- Aegon: I need a style that
635
00:51:49,984 --> 00:51:53,363
demonstrates power
and commands respect.
636
00:51:53,488 --> 00:51:56,366
Eh, no-no one knows what
"magnanimous" means.
637
00:51:56,491 --> 00:51:58,992
Leon: You could be "Aegon
the Generous" then.
638
00:51:58,993 --> 00:52:01,371
- That would charm the smallfolk.
- Aegon: I like that.
639
00:52:01,496 --> 00:52:02,848
Martyn Reyne: Is there
more strong wine?
640
00:52:02,872 --> 00:52:05,374
- Leon: "Aegon the Dragonheart."
- Aegon: Better.
641
00:52:05,375 --> 00:52:07,377
Leon: "Aegon the Dragoncock!"
642
00:52:07,502 --> 00:52:09,421
Aegon: Yes, yes!
643
00:52:09,546 --> 00:52:11,714
Yeah, the untamable beast!
644
00:52:34,738 --> 00:52:37,072
How do we get upstairs?
645
00:52:37,073 --> 00:52:39,075
The royals live up there.
646
00:52:40,744 --> 00:52:41,703
Right.
647
00:52:41,704 --> 00:52:43,246
Well, it's off limits, it is.
648
00:52:43,747 --> 00:52:45,915
Different group of
ratcatchers work the upstairs.
649
00:52:46,041 --> 00:52:48,418
If we're to kill a
royal fucking prince,
650
00:52:48,543 --> 00:52:50,128
where do you think
we're gonna find him?
651
00:52:51,254 --> 00:52:53,213
I got you in the castle.
652
00:52:53,214 --> 00:52:54,924
I thought the rest was your bit.
653
00:52:57,594 --> 00:52:59,304
I could end you right here,
654
00:52:59,429 --> 00:53:01,347
take the rest of
the gold meself.
655
00:53:04,309 --> 00:53:06,101
I know a way upstairs.
656
00:53:06,102 --> 00:53:09,104
I just don't know my way 'round.
657
00:53:11,775 --> 00:53:13,192
Show me.
658
00:53:15,111 --> 00:53:17,029
Fuck off.
659
00:53:23,787 --> 00:53:24,954
This way.
660
00:53:45,684 --> 00:53:47,852
The royals live on this level.
661
00:54:06,538 --> 00:54:08,289
No one's here.
662
00:54:08,790 --> 00:54:10,500
Blood: We need
to keep looking.
663
00:54:10,625 --> 00:54:13,168
I've told ya, I'm not
supposed to be up here.
664
00:54:13,169 --> 00:54:15,213
Did you not hear the prince?
665
00:54:16,172 --> 00:54:19,175
No head... no gold.
666
00:54:25,682 --> 00:54:28,184
- Set a trap.
- Huh?
667
00:54:28,685 --> 00:54:30,687
- Blood: For appearances.
- Oh.
668
00:54:30,979 --> 00:54:33,023
I'll search the next room.
669
00:55:06,139 --> 00:55:07,891
For the rats.
670
00:55:39,547 --> 00:55:42,092
Cheese: Quiet.
671
00:55:42,926 --> 00:55:44,594
Quiet.
672
00:55:47,555 --> 00:55:49,766
Stay still.
673
00:55:51,893 --> 00:55:55,772
Who the fuck is she?
674
00:55:56,898 --> 00:55:59,109
She's the queen, she is.
675
00:55:59,442 --> 00:56:02,069
"A son for a son," he said.
676
00:56:02,070 --> 00:56:04,614
Well, does she look like
a fucking son to you?
677
00:56:04,739 --> 00:56:08,118
Over there.
678
00:56:17,460 --> 00:56:19,420
We need to get our
head and get out.
679
00:56:19,421 --> 00:56:21,673
Shh.
680
00:56:27,012 --> 00:56:30,097
They both look the same.
Which one's the boy?
681
00:56:30,098 --> 00:56:33,935
- Maybe that one.
- Well, look for a cock.
682
00:56:38,148 --> 00:56:39,441
The mother knows.
683
00:56:41,651 --> 00:56:43,736
Do anything but what I ask,
684
00:56:43,737 --> 00:56:46,990
and I'll bleed the
whole lot of ya.
685
00:56:48,992 --> 00:56:50,160
Shh.
686
00:56:53,496 --> 00:56:54,873
Which?
687
00:56:57,667 --> 00:56:59,878
I have a necklace.
688
00:57:01,546 --> 00:57:03,798
It's of great value.
689
00:57:06,843 --> 00:57:08,845
That's not a son.
690
00:57:23,526 --> 00:57:24,736
N...
691
00:57:32,327 --> 00:57:33,536
Wait.
692
00:57:34,371 --> 00:57:38,833
It's the other one. She's not gonna
give up the king's heir that easy.
693
00:57:48,218 --> 00:57:49,219
No.
694
00:57:50,762 --> 00:57:52,514
She's telling true.
695
00:57:56,059 --> 00:57:57,227
Blood: Hold him down.
696
00:58:01,272 --> 00:58:02,273
No.
697
00:59:05,795 --> 00:59:07,464
Alicent: Helaena!
698
00:59:12,302 --> 00:59:13,970
What's happened?
699
00:59:17,932 --> 00:59:20,185
They killed the boy.
700
01:00:53,737 --> 01:00:55,113
I'll kill them!
701
01:01:00,201 --> 01:01:01,745
I declare war!
702
01:01:08,877 --> 01:01:10,437
You have wounded me.
703
01:01:10,712 --> 01:01:12,964
Weakened my claim to the throne.
704
01:01:14,758 --> 01:01:16,134
I cannot trust you, Daemon.
705
01:01:16,634 --> 01:01:19,314
Rhaenyra's supporters will
believe what they wish.
706
01:01:21,139 --> 01:01:22,599
And so will Aegon's.
707
01:01:23,725 --> 01:01:26,770
The significance of Viserys'
intentions died with him.
708
01:01:27,771 --> 01:01:29,481
There is a war brewing.
709
01:01:31,775 --> 01:01:34,152
This war will not be
won with dragons alone
710
01:01:34,444 --> 01:01:36,988
but with dragons flying
behind armies of men.
711
01:01:39,324 --> 01:01:41,364
The Riverlands are
the key to the war.
712
01:01:41,409 --> 01:01:43,286
Harrenhal is the key
to the Riverlands.
713
01:01:46,831 --> 01:01:48,791
Perhaps the
presence of a dragon
714
01:01:48,833 --> 01:01:51,169
will sharpen minds
round these parts.
715
01:01:53,129 --> 01:01:55,006
The path I walk has
never been trod.
716
01:01:56,299 --> 01:01:58,301
There is more than one
way to fight a war.
717
01:01:59,678 --> 01:02:01,136
I will not be seen as weak.
718
01:02:01,137 --> 01:02:03,515
You're already seen
as weak, Aegon.
719
01:02:03,807 --> 01:02:05,850
Beware how you
speak to your king.
720
01:02:10,313 --> 01:02:13,983
We must seize the hour and
act before our enemy does.
721
01:02:14,693 --> 01:02:17,278
Is there naught to be done
but to claw for power?
722
01:02:20,657 --> 01:02:22,659
What we must do is terrible.
723
01:02:24,452 --> 01:02:25,954
Will you preside over it?
724
01:02:27,664 --> 01:02:29,874
We must break the
will of our enemy.
725
01:02:31,501 --> 01:02:34,045
There will be no mercy!
726
01:02:44,472 --> 01:02:46,224
We have given the
war to the dragons.
727
01:02:54,190 --> 01:02:56,568
Duty is sacrifice.
728
01:02:58,153 --> 01:03:00,071
It eclipses all things,
729
01:03:00,822 --> 01:03:02,032
even blood.
730
01:03:03,867 --> 01:03:04,987
In the making of season one,
731
01:03:05,035 --> 01:03:06,911
we knew half that
season is a prologue
732
01:03:07,037 --> 01:03:09,247
and half of it is the
first act of this war.
733
01:03:09,372 --> 01:03:11,583
To have season one
land the way it did,
734
01:03:11,708 --> 01:03:13,375
with a rabid audience,
735
01:03:13,376 --> 01:03:16,046
fans of George and his
books the way I am.
736
01:03:16,171 --> 01:03:17,338
We were excited to get into it
737
01:03:17,339 --> 01:03:20,258
because this is the
juicy part of the drama.
738
01:03:25,263 --> 01:03:28,516
The North owes a great
duty to the Seven Kingdoms,
739
01:03:29,017 --> 01:03:31,019
one older than any oath.
740
01:03:31,561 --> 01:03:34,063
Winterfell is the one place,
the one corner of this world
741
01:03:34,064 --> 01:03:36,565
where news of Luke's
death has not yet reached,
742
01:03:36,566 --> 01:03:41,362
and it is this hearkening
back to a simpler time.
743
01:03:41,363 --> 01:03:44,573
I wanted to go to a place
where we could experience that,
744
01:03:44,574 --> 01:03:45,574
if only briefly,
745
01:03:45,742 --> 01:03:48,286
and the North just felt
completely the right way to go.
746
01:03:48,620 --> 01:03:51,122
Ryan, when we did speak, it
really, really helped me out
747
01:03:51,247 --> 01:03:53,415
because we would
have conversations
748
01:03:53,416 --> 01:03:56,294
about how important
these negotiations are
749
01:03:56,419 --> 01:03:57,212
for Team Black
750
01:03:57,420 --> 01:03:59,963
and the difference
it makes in the war.
751
01:03:59,964 --> 01:04:02,926
War is coming to the whole
of the realm, My Lord.
752
01:04:03,468 --> 01:04:05,637
We cannot wage it without
the support of the North.
753
01:04:05,762 --> 01:04:07,406
Well, it was all
about history.
754
01:04:07,430 --> 01:04:09,641
There were pledges that
were made back in the day,
755
01:04:09,766 --> 01:04:14,312
and Jace is sent to remind
Cregan Stark of those pledges.
756
01:04:14,646 --> 01:04:17,148
If your greybeards can fight,
the Queen will have them.
757
01:04:17,315 --> 01:04:20,610
They will fight hard,
like Northerners.
758
01:04:23,238 --> 01:04:25,740
Rhaenyra heard the
news that Luke has died
759
01:04:25,907 --> 01:04:27,157
on a mission that
she sent him on,
760
01:04:27,158 --> 01:04:28,451
so there's guilt involved.
761
01:04:28,576 --> 01:04:31,663
And she's a mother
who's lost a son
762
01:04:31,788 --> 01:04:32,580
and has to go through
763
01:04:32,581 --> 01:04:34,623
the sort of necessary
grieving process
764
01:04:34,624 --> 01:04:36,458
that Daemon, her husband,
765
01:04:36,459 --> 01:04:38,920
can't really appreciate
or understand.
766
01:04:39,170 --> 01:04:41,964
She goes and tries to make
peace with Luke's demise,
767
01:04:41,965 --> 01:04:43,045
but she cannot settle in it
768
01:04:43,133 --> 01:04:44,413
because it is
unsettled business,
769
01:04:44,467 --> 01:04:46,845
until part of Arrax
washes ashore.
770
01:04:47,012 --> 01:04:50,472
Going in search of evidence is
771
01:04:50,473 --> 01:04:52,266
quite fundamentally
important to her.
772
01:04:52,267 --> 01:04:56,645
I guess one of the sort of
maddest things about death
773
01:04:56,646 --> 01:04:58,148
is that it seems
sort of impossible,
774
01:04:58,481 --> 01:05:01,775
especially because really the
overriding feeling often is
775
01:05:01,776 --> 01:05:03,152
you just sit with the absence.
776
01:05:03,153 --> 01:05:06,031
And so, anything that has,
like, a tangibility about it
777
01:05:06,156 --> 01:05:07,698
I think is vitally important.
778
01:05:07,699 --> 01:05:11,036
Her son's cloak, the
wing of his dragon,
779
01:05:11,161 --> 01:05:12,661
I think it's devastating,
780
01:05:12,662 --> 01:05:17,042
but I think it galvanizes
a vengeful feeling,
781
01:05:17,375 --> 01:05:20,170
one that maybe she hasn't paid
so much mind to previously.
782
01:05:24,674 --> 01:05:27,153
I think that Rhaenys is
probably one of the few people
783
01:05:27,177 --> 01:05:28,886
that Daemon knows
he can't mess with,
784
01:05:28,887 --> 01:05:30,847
although I suspect
probably wants to.
785
01:05:32,349 --> 01:05:33,891
We're going to King's Landing.
786
01:05:33,892 --> 01:05:35,977
- To what end?
- Killing Vhagar.
787
01:05:36,353 --> 01:05:38,187
When those two meet,
it's kind of like
788
01:05:38,188 --> 01:05:42,901
a panther meets a
kind of electric eel.
789
01:05:43,026 --> 01:05:45,236
Really dangerous combination.
790
01:05:45,653 --> 01:05:49,032
He's essentially ready to
go to war and get payback.
791
01:05:49,491 --> 01:05:51,158
It was nice to throw
those characters
792
01:05:51,159 --> 01:05:52,827
into conflict with one another.
793
01:05:53,244 --> 01:05:55,829
I think you can tell
from even her demeanor
794
01:05:55,830 --> 01:05:57,582
the way Rhaenys
thinks of Daemon.
795
01:05:57,707 --> 01:05:59,583
Daemon believes that
he's, of course,
796
01:05:59,584 --> 01:06:00,584
completely in the right
797
01:06:00,710 --> 01:06:02,879
and has the power to
order Rhaenys around.
798
01:06:03,046 --> 01:06:04,214
Fly with me.
799
01:06:05,590 --> 01:06:06,675
It is a command.
800
01:06:06,925 --> 01:06:08,677
Would that you were the king.
801
01:06:09,427 --> 01:06:10,863
Where is Jaehaerys?
802
01:06:10,887 --> 01:06:12,263
What do you need of him?
803
01:06:12,555 --> 01:06:14,099
I'm taking him to
the Small Council.
804
01:06:14,724 --> 01:06:17,018
He'll be king one day. He
must begin his instruction.
805
01:06:17,227 --> 01:06:19,270
What if he does not
want to be king?
806
01:06:20,772 --> 01:06:21,772
Where is he?
807
01:06:21,898 --> 01:06:23,399
One of the things I loved
about Game of Thrones
808
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:24,525
was the character humor.
809
01:06:24,526 --> 01:06:26,277
And, you know, we can
spend a lot of time
810
01:06:26,403 --> 01:06:27,444
being dour in this world,
811
01:06:27,445 --> 01:06:28,904
and it's so important
to have humor.
812
01:06:28,905 --> 01:06:30,030
And when I first saw
813
01:06:30,031 --> 01:06:31,573
what Tom Glynn-Carney
was doing with Aegon,
814
01:06:31,574 --> 01:06:33,867
I thought, "He's finding humor
where I didn't know it existed."
815
01:06:33,868 --> 01:06:35,077
And it's painful,
816
01:06:35,078 --> 01:06:36,704
a guy who's way
in over his head,
817
01:06:36,705 --> 01:06:38,122
who really wants to do well
818
01:06:38,123 --> 01:06:39,957
but just can't make
a right move...
819
01:06:39,958 --> 01:06:42,085
no matter what he does.
820
01:06:42,460 --> 01:06:44,629
Aegon the Magnanimous.
821
01:06:44,796 --> 01:06:46,381
Hail King Aegon!
822
01:06:47,257 --> 01:06:48,633
The Magnanimous?
823
01:06:50,468 --> 01:06:52,761
I think Aegon is
the kind of father
824
01:06:52,762 --> 01:06:55,640
that encourages bad behavior
because he finds it funny.
825
01:06:55,765 --> 01:06:56,766
He loves his kids.
826
01:06:56,891 --> 01:06:58,267
I have no doubt about that.
827
01:06:58,268 --> 01:06:59,601
He loves his kids dearly.
828
01:06:59,602 --> 01:07:02,229
But he's not one
to discipline them.
829
01:07:02,230 --> 01:07:04,149
If anything, he's, you know,
830
01:07:04,274 --> 01:07:05,607
having competitions
with his children
831
01:07:05,608 --> 01:07:07,819
to see who can be
the most rebellious.
832
01:07:08,111 --> 01:07:09,611
And Aegon often wins.
833
01:07:09,612 --> 01:07:10,612
He took my piece.
834
01:07:10,780 --> 01:07:12,824
Is the heir to the throne
bothering you, Tyland?
835
01:07:13,575 --> 01:07:15,493
We see him come into a
Small Council meeting
836
01:07:15,618 --> 01:07:16,494
with Jaehaerys,
837
01:07:16,619 --> 01:07:19,164
and, you know, he's
spurring him on.
838
01:07:19,289 --> 01:07:22,750
He's wanting him to be more
of a... more of a rebel,
839
01:07:22,751 --> 01:07:25,462
more of a nuisance,
just like his old man.
840
01:07:25,587 --> 01:07:28,172
- I think he wants a ride.
- Your Grace.
841
01:07:28,173 --> 01:07:30,008
- A ride?
- A pony ride.
842
01:07:30,759 --> 01:07:32,134
Wouldn't that be fun, Jaehaerys?
843
01:07:32,135 --> 01:07:34,512
Should the Master of
Coin be your royal steed?
844
01:07:35,972 --> 01:07:37,473
It's meant to be a
moment of fun, a bit.
845
01:07:37,474 --> 01:07:40,642
And yes, like Aegon brings
his four-year-old to work.
846
01:07:40,643 --> 01:07:42,811
But I think on a perhaps
nuanced character level,
847
01:07:42,812 --> 01:07:45,439
this is the thing that
Viserys never did for Aegon.
848
01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:47,316
And Aegon did not study
at the feet of his father.
849
01:07:47,317 --> 01:07:49,777
His father had his male heir
and then essentially said,
850
01:07:49,778 --> 01:07:52,030
"Well, that box is
ticked." He was ill.
851
01:07:52,322 --> 01:07:53,655
I think he enjoyed having a son,
852
01:07:53,656 --> 01:07:55,991
but didn't put in the work
the way he did with Rhaenyra
853
01:07:55,992 --> 01:07:57,117
when he was a younger man.
854
01:07:57,118 --> 01:07:58,828
And I think Aegon resents that
855
01:07:59,037 --> 01:08:00,496
and feels that
part of the reason
856
01:08:00,497 --> 01:08:02,164
that he's not seen
as being suited
857
01:08:02,165 --> 01:08:04,334
for the crown or the throne
858
01:08:04,501 --> 01:08:07,379
is because he didn't get that
training from his father,
859
01:08:07,504 --> 01:08:10,048
so now he's going to
make up for that tenfold
860
01:08:10,173 --> 01:08:11,341
with Jaehaerys.
861
01:08:13,885 --> 01:08:16,053
Alicent's been in a
marriage that was loving,
862
01:08:16,054 --> 01:08:20,015
but not exactly romantic or
physical for quite some time.
863
01:08:20,016 --> 01:08:21,850
Cole has got a lot of issues.
864
01:08:21,851 --> 01:08:23,310
One thing I love
about the character
865
01:08:23,311 --> 01:08:25,063
is that he is a knight
in shining armor
866
01:08:25,188 --> 01:08:26,468
and sort of classically handsome
867
01:08:26,523 --> 01:08:28,649
and probably the most messed
up person in the story
868
01:08:28,650 --> 01:08:29,650
in many ways.
869
01:08:29,818 --> 01:08:31,671
You know, clinging to
notions of purity and duty
870
01:08:31,695 --> 01:08:34,322
and just flagrantly breaking
them left and right.
871
01:08:34,698 --> 01:08:36,031
So, there's a lot
of complex things
872
01:08:36,032 --> 01:08:37,866
driving the moves
closer and closer
873
01:08:37,867 --> 01:08:39,077
between Alicent and Cole.
874
01:08:39,369 --> 01:08:40,536
And it takes a leap forward.
875
01:08:40,537 --> 01:08:41,817
But nothing is simple with them,
876
01:08:41,871 --> 01:08:43,748
so for every leap forward,
there's a push back.
877
01:08:44,082 --> 01:08:46,668
We cannot... again.
878
01:08:46,918 --> 01:08:48,669
There's a lot of
wonderful tension there.
879
01:08:48,670 --> 01:08:51,839
I mean, I think there's love,
but there's a lot of mess too.
880
01:08:53,341 --> 01:08:54,842
- Your Grace.
- Good day.
881
01:08:54,843 --> 01:08:56,344
I think, ultimately,
882
01:08:56,553 --> 01:09:01,725
they're two very lost people
in a pretty unforgiving world.
883
01:09:02,058 --> 01:09:04,393
And I think there's always been,
884
01:09:04,394 --> 01:09:06,438
you know, since the
very first episode,
885
01:09:06,563 --> 01:09:08,355
Alicent, you know, had
her eye on Criston Cole.
886
01:09:08,356 --> 01:09:10,357
And then she was a young lady,
887
01:09:10,358 --> 01:09:13,737
and now she's the Queen
of the Seven Kingdoms.
888
01:09:14,237 --> 01:09:16,739
It's paramount that
she keeps it a secret
889
01:09:16,740 --> 01:09:19,950
because not only
would her respect
890
01:09:19,951 --> 01:09:22,077
completely disintegrate,
891
01:09:22,078 --> 01:09:24,538
but her stay in the castle.
892
01:09:24,539 --> 01:09:27,291
And Aegon is so unpredictable.
Who knows what he would do
893
01:09:27,292 --> 01:09:31,128
if he found out that his
mother was having sex
894
01:09:31,129 --> 01:09:33,298
with his Commander
of the Kingsguard?
895
01:09:33,423 --> 01:09:35,215
I mean, not only is
it an embarrassment,
896
01:09:35,216 --> 01:09:38,887
it would bring deep, deep shame.
897
01:09:42,432 --> 01:09:45,101
I want Aemond Targaryen.
898
01:09:46,478 --> 01:09:49,147
Rhaenyra has literally one
line in the first episode,
899
01:09:49,272 --> 01:09:50,440
and the one line she says,
900
01:09:50,774 --> 01:09:52,942
Daemon takes as
pulling the trigger.
901
01:09:53,109 --> 01:09:55,779
In our first episode, we
see him unleash something
902
01:09:55,904 --> 01:09:58,281
that is sort of famous in the
lore of House of the Dragon,
903
01:09:58,448 --> 01:10:00,492
a nasty event that he triggers.
904
01:10:00,950 --> 01:10:04,662
When Rhaenyra declares
that she wants Aemond,
905
01:10:04,788 --> 01:10:09,668
I think it's an admission of
a possibly shameful desire,
906
01:10:09,793 --> 01:10:12,796
and I think that admission
is made directly to Daemon.
907
01:10:12,962 --> 01:10:15,964
I think it's also an
admission of their similarity.
908
01:10:15,965 --> 01:10:18,968
She sort of discloses
another way in which
909
01:10:19,094 --> 01:10:21,805
they actually share a darkness.
910
01:10:22,472 --> 01:10:25,349
"I want Aemond Targaryen"
becomes the battle cry
911
01:10:25,350 --> 01:10:27,643
that then resonates
across the entire season
912
01:10:27,644 --> 01:10:30,312
because that is the
next domino to fall
913
01:10:30,313 --> 01:10:32,940
in this back and forth
that sets in motion
914
01:10:32,941 --> 01:10:34,859
a horrible attack
and counterattack
915
01:10:34,984 --> 01:10:35,984
that continues,
916
01:10:36,111 --> 01:10:38,488
and the atrocities grow
worse and worse as they go.
917
01:10:38,988 --> 01:10:40,656
In our story, it's Mysaria,
918
01:10:40,657 --> 01:10:42,825
who has got her tentacles into
every part of King's Landing,
919
01:10:42,826 --> 01:10:44,993
who is able to provide
the connections
920
01:10:44,994 --> 01:10:47,371
for Daemon to exact revenge.
921
01:10:47,372 --> 01:10:48,997
I think it really is a
big deal for the fans
922
01:10:48,998 --> 01:10:50,438
because it keeps
getting referred to.
923
01:10:50,500 --> 01:10:52,459
And I don't know the
characters' actual names.
924
01:10:52,460 --> 01:10:54,712
They're forever in lore
as Blood and Cheese.
925
01:10:54,713 --> 01:10:57,131
Who the fuck is she?
926
01:10:57,132 --> 01:10:58,674
She's the Queen, she is.
927
01:10:58,675 --> 01:11:00,634
"A son for a son," he said.
928
01:11:00,635 --> 01:11:02,177
The boldest thing that
I think we did there
929
01:11:02,178 --> 01:11:04,889
was decide to give the last
ten minutes of the episode
930
01:11:05,015 --> 01:11:07,517
over to these two characters
that we have never met before
931
01:11:07,642 --> 01:11:10,394
and rely on them to take us
through the end of the story
932
01:11:10,395 --> 01:11:12,021
and to see, hopefully,
933
01:11:12,022 --> 01:11:14,023
as they go deeper and
deeper into the Red Keep
934
01:11:14,024 --> 01:11:16,002
and as we're spending more
and more screen time on them
935
01:11:16,026 --> 01:11:18,403
that something horrible is
going to happen in there,
936
01:11:18,528 --> 01:11:20,863
and knowing that you're
watching Game of Thrones
937
01:11:20,864 --> 01:11:23,700
and you don't know what is going
to come for you from where.
938
01:11:23,908 --> 01:11:25,826
And seeing that play
out hopefully is the fun
939
01:11:25,827 --> 01:11:28,747
and the horror for the
audience that's yet to come.70613
