Re Thanks for the review
You did not detail how Daemon found out Lucerys was killed and in what manner. Were there other witnesses to the battle in the sky (other than Aemond)? Did Aemond go back and confess everything immediately? Why would he? If he's the only witness, he could have just pretended of having no knowledge of anything.
That Storm's End scene was super nerve-wracking to watch. The actor who played Lucerys brilliantly portrayed his struggle to overcome his fear as a child and uphold his duty as prince-envoy for his mother. Aemond's sapphire eye reveal was also cherry on top.
They needed more tension in episode 9 which fell flat but with this, even knowing what was going to happen, I was still shocked
@@queenb2450 not as shocked as the look on Aemond's face. Well played by both actors
Poor little kid!
His hands were little kid's hands!
Why have an eye patch?
@@buddhastl7120 In the book hes mostly with his saphire eye
HUGE props to Aemond's actor. I hate the character to pieces, but he pulled off that look of true regret at the end so convincingly I felt slightly bad for him. Like, yes, he was tormenting the kid and is a f**ing bastard for doing so, but you can tell he didn't mean for it to get quite that out of hand and there's this genuine "...What have I done?" quality to it. Very well acted.
i agree.. great acting.. i like to think that he didnt want to actually hurt the boy since they were razed together since childhood..and his face is showing just that.. that being said in real world no matter what kind of person you are once you kill someone it changes everything..if they are going for realism even if he turns out to be a sadistic asshole after this it would still be believable
hes my fave by far
I think the actor played a Christian monk in The Last Kingdom. A great character as well. It's one of those interesting medieval drama series to watch, now on Netflix.
I don’t feel sorry for Aemond. He displayed that he’s a complete psychopath. Now, he’s not only started a war, he’s a kinslayer.
I wonder that no one has brought this up more often. That should have been Alicent’s first argument last episode to her father in the Small Council. Taking Rhaenyra out would make Aegon a kinslayer, even if he didn’t do it with his own hands.
@@kimberlyrobinson3992 yeah u can say this about aemond in later part but till now he has done nothing wrong it was all about dragon when they feel threatened their instinct kicked on and it's natural for him to hate this strong boy particularly😆😆😆
I liked the detail of Rhaenyra inviting Rhaena to the council table after she serves her the wine. Rhaenyra was a cupbearer too but was not given a place at the table. So I like that Rheana and Baella were part of the council and that they stood beside Jace and Luc.
That is a detail I found interesting too. I was hoping those two would ally-up.
Yes, and it pleased Princess Rhaenys when she did so.
Yes! I think it served to show Princess Rhaenys Rhaenyra's heart. It was a great showcase of women helping other women as they quite literally and figuratively give each other seats at the table. Loved the fact that she was made Queen moments before that and it was one of her first actions.
I noticed that too.. Rhaenyra really wants to be a good queen..
I liked that too. Women also belong at the table.
What I realized about Daemon not knowing about Aegons Prophecy, is the fact that since Viserys never told him, he never really intended for Daemon to be heir in the first place.
I agree. I think that's why he choked Rhaenyra (mostly as a stand-in for his brother), not because she was considering conceding.
@@michaelnkomphela8231 Its not arya its Jon Snow (Aegon Targaryean VI)
He didn't he always thought he would have a son. Damon was the heir because if a king has no male heirs the crown automatically passes to his brother. Viserys was an idiot
They literally say this in the episode
@@taylorwalker7417, I think it is several things. Daemon thinks prophecies are nonsense, hates them, he believes only in real dragon power. And is frustrated because Rhaenyra holds him back on his full war path, it reminds him of Viserys inaction he despised. He knows nothing about “Song of Ice and Fire” and doesn`t understand her reluctance to immediately retaliate (because he knows she is fire and dragon like himself, and she is in pain just like him). Realisation that it is all because of some crazy prophecy that his brother did not even tell him, to Daemon is irritation and reminder again that his brother constantly refused to rely on him/his opinion. And just like at battle of Stepstones when he pummeled that Viserys messenger in anger, Daemon felt this moment like another slap in his face. He snaps and lashes out. That violent choking was him screaming at her "Do not Viserys me! Listen to me! This is war and we must attack! Only dragons & action matter! Not some stupid tales!".
That shot of Vhaghar's shadow flying over Arrax was so spectacular. Just showed the size difference between the two. The part from storm's end onwards was one of the best foreshadowing I have seen in ASOIAF.
Like a b-52 bomber flying over a small cesna
Reminds me of Jaws movie.
or when Lucerys lands his dragon in the courtyard, looks back to see Vhagar outside the castle walls due to the sheer size of it.
There are dragons, and then there are fkin dinosaurs.
the fact that Arrax fits perfectly into Vhagar's mouth is enough to show the size difference :D
Luke and Arrax death is really heartbreaking and brutal. They’re just so young, helpless and threatened. But this adds a whole new dynamic on Aemond’s character, adds more tragedy if I say. This finale is just so sad, Rhaenyra is passed boiling point. They’ve awakened the dragon and now she’s ready for war.
That, and visually it was pretty, intense. Seeing a dragon be chomped like that, looked like a dead lizard being discarded by a crocodile. So brutal
I mean what did he think was happen? He is a teenager and has an ancient weapon of mass destruction. You can't prank a child with an actual nuke, can you? What do you think happens if Russia just flies its nukes over USA? "oh we did not fire, it was just a joke bro?"
Yep she looked super pissed at the end :(
I don’t think Aemond meant to kill Luke. Both Luke and Aemond lost control of their dragons. Rhaenyra talked about how the dragons would destroy the realm if used in war. I think she may have been right, and I think dragons may have been responsible for the doom of Valyria.
@@maximusprimus827 that’s a show thing. In the books Aemond fully meant to kill him.
Aemond’s face of realization and fear after he realized what he just did and Rhaenerya’s face of pain and vengeance when she heard of her sons death were incredible parallels. The true beginning of the end for Targaryen’s and their dragons and Lucerys was soo brave. You could tell he was nervous about going. He then did his best to defend off his uncle then just gets chomped on 😢
In reality aemond probably could have gone to dragon stone, told the truth and apologized and saved a war lol
@@karlg1535 i mean who would you believe? besides there is no way Damon would have said ok cool
Wait to see what's next, and how Daemon responds. Blood and Cheese!
Like with Rhaenys at the dragon pit, he does not get to call the shots. He should return to kingslanding and report in what happened. However, it would likely be that he owns up to the killing because they don't want people to think the Greens can't control their dragons, that would be a major sign of illegitimacy by the lords who may or may not have declared for them.
@@karlg1535 pretty sure he would Of can been executed by daemon
Did anyone else notice Rhaenyra’s smirk when she realized Daemon wasn’t told about the Song of Ice and Fire?
Yep she was like welp... Uncle/Husband lol
Yes; she realized that he never intended daemon to be his heir.
Interesting that while Aemond wasn’t going for the kill they could not truly control the Dragons. Once the Dragons felt threatened and angry their riders could not stop them from their battle instincts. Arrax defended himself and Vhagar was not having it. Just goes to shows that these are powers that should not be trifled or messed with. Valyria learned that the hard way.
Viserys mentioned that they couldn't control the dragons in an earlier episode.
Saw this same exact comment on a different video 😆
@@jayman36553 yeah that was me too
and That's exactly why children shouldn't be riding these things lol
Valyria learned to not build cities in the sides of active volcanos the hard way. Not sure about the dragons.
Already hurts to think we not getting another episode next Sunday.
Anticipate 4 seasons.. you anticiapte 4 years
Aegon's takes about another 4 seasons. That is almost 10 years
@@jacksonloram7887 The shows so good I’m honestly willing to wait. So many mediocre shows nowadays I’ll take this masterpiece quality over quantity.
I know right I'm actually pretty bummed out... BIG TIME!
Hopefully that John snow show will come out so we have something to hold us over until season 2
@@niggasmane8187 exactly, It's a quality show. Even better than the original. Things made with quality should be given time. This ain't a netflix/ amazon cashgrab.
I think the scene where Rhanerya goes into labor is supposed to parallel when Aemma told Rhanerya that women go to war when they give birth. I think once Rhanerya goes into labor that’s when the war really starts regardless if she knows or not. She was always gonna end up fighting the greens.
And her not wanting help. She was PISSED!
really cool idea
When Rhaenyra sees Daemon during the end scene, her eyes don’t leave him. Knew her partner was coming with some heavy, heavy news. Great job by Emma D’Arcy and Matt Smith.
I really love that “oh shit what have I done?” Look by Aemond at the end. The worst part is he’ll have to own it or he’ll look weak.
I thought so as well. He's never going to admit that he wasn't able to control Vhagar. I really hope he will act like it was no big deal and Luke had it coming, while being tormented on the inside and maybe even a bit anxious around his dragon.
@@honoria2338 yeah hopefully it will add a lot to his character.
@@alexdredge655 didn't he kill him on purpose in the books I think he took both of his eyes out as well correct me if iam wrong its been awhile lol
@@lioneljonson3518 he did it purposely in the books but aren’t those books written as history texts not POV so it makes sense that they’d not get all the facts right
@@alexdredge655 yes your correct I like the way the show is going as opposed too the books it keeps you on your toes
(In High Valyrian)
Lucerys to Arrax: "Serve me!"
Aemond to Vhagar: "Serve me!"
Daenerys: "A dragon is not a slave."
One powerful moment overlooked, is when Deamon took Jac and Luc to show them what true loyalty looks like.
Defintiely well done
This whole thing makes me so sad to think of Viserys' intentions before his death. He just wanted everyone to get along and love each other in peace. :(
Well, at least he died thinking things were settled, and didn't have to watch it all unravel.
HE WAS A FOOL. He knew his house and the in fighting his choice would make. If he had been a heavier handed king no one would undermine his decisions.
He was stupid. If he was going to name Rhaenyra his heir he should have made her precedence clear throughout his life. He should never have allowed Alicent to order her around, and he should never have given his sons such impunity. He should have kept Rhaenyra in every council, delegated responsibilities to her, and actively secured her claim amongst the lords of the realm. He should have clarified that his mind was fixed and never to be changed. He failed in all of that.
@@adipsous He was a good king, not a stupid king
@@elegantfeet6733 the entire conflict is happening becuase he was not a good leader. Could not make any of the right decisions
Aemond was just trying to scare the poor boy 😔 but Arrax got scared and defensive and Vhagar is no stranger to battle so she wasn't about to let them get away alive after all that.That look on Aemond's face after was "oh shit I just started a war" 😬
Yeah Vhagar was like "Shots Fired !"🔥🔥
I interpreted Aemond using the "common tongue" to try to control his dragon as mocking Luke, and thus not a real attempt at control, as we know that dragons respond to High Valyrian. Maybe I'm wrong, though.
Vhagar probably had just mistaken Lucerys for a Dornish boy riding a strange, large bird.
Vaghar started snapping and trying to bite Arrax and Luc several times before Arrax fired at her
Aemond doesn’t get a pass he killed Luke now he has to pay
"It was bad weather for flying, even
for a dragon [..] Prince Aemond
mounted Vhagar and went after him. Had the sky been calm, Prince
Lucerys might have been able to outfly his pursuer, for Arrax was younger
and swifter…but the day was "as black as Prince Aemond's heart"
Blood and cheese coming at the beginning of season 2 probably too man I’m not prepared
@@allsportshighlights92 I think Blood and Cheese will be an episode 9 moment. That’s gonna be brutal.
Dood u don't know why stormsend is called stormsend do you? Read the history on the castle
@@MoejiiOsmanTV Yes it is regularly beset by storms. But not like all the time. Just like Winterfell is not always in winter.
Did y’all notice that during Vhagar’s and Arrax’s fight, Arrax blew fire at the left side of Vhagar’s face? This mirrors Lucerys cutting Aemond’s left eye.
The dragon-rider bond does seem to be a bit like warging but with the rider's emotion rather than his/her thoughts.
i think it is a small detail that Aemond is blind on the left side. If he can't see, then he can't command his dragon
Good catch. That will probably what they'll lead credence to Vhagar's defeat. Can't see from one side.
That mean Vhagar also blind from left eye ?
@@swapniljadhav1296 No, it was just an interesting connection between the two events. It shows how much attention the directors give to every scene.
One thing I noticed that I don’t think was mentioned in the video was how Borros Baratheon stopped Aemond from fighting Luke by saying “Not under my roof” Then it wasn’t until they both left the storm clouds (the “roof” of Storm’s End) that Vhagar fully attacked Luke and Arrax and any blood was shed. It was a little thing I noticed that stuck with me
It’s stressed more in the books but there’s a huge emphasis on superstitions. Kinslaying, oath breaking, and allowing your guest to get murdered are just some of them. I love the way that GRRM creates a type of Karma system where the people that are guilty of breaking the rules end up getting killed off in some way or another.
If anything happens in your house or kingdom the other parties will look to you and ask why you didnt stop the bloodshed, thus getting you involved and forced to pick a side. Baratheon didnt want any of that as it was messy already.
LOL, the "roof"? You people, I swear.
The finale really established for me that dragons are incarnations of human emotions like aggression, spite, hate, anger. They can only be kept in check by strong, balanced minds - and when they are unleashed by volatile, unstable minds, they destroy everything.
A wonderful reflection
Especially when Vhagar was still with Laena, she even hesitated to burn her.
@@adibmz1752 very true. Also, I was thinking the dragon may not like the dude with 1 eye very much. I have a feeling it doesn't always listen to him. Imagine having a "pet" and the main owner passes away, the new owner may not be as bonded to the fullest extent as the first owner was from the animal's perspective.
Wow
In other word: Ego. Maybe. It could be analyzed . . . as such.
I’ve never clicked on anything so fast in my life 😭😂😢
Snap!!!!! Me too!!! 🤣
Nah fr 😂
Me too 😂😂
Yep
Yes, exactly! I starting searching for it earlier.
Whoever casted the actors did an excellent job! The stillborn scene was very traumatic😢
It was heartbreaking 😔
I thought the baby was still going to survive and be some kind of deformed badass
@@chocotastic1 🤣🤣🤣🤣 best comment on this thread
Who casted the baby for that scene? You're right about the casting!
I think Rhaenyra named the girl Visenya for her father not the conqueror queen Visenya. I do love how they showed how strong the dragon bond was with Syrax feeling Rhaenyra’s birth pains, Caraxes knowing Daemon’s intent, & Arrax sensing Luke’s fear & defending himself & Vhagar sensing Aemond’s hatred! I was so upset Daemon choked Rhaenyra & glad she tried to keep peace in honor of her father. Poor Luke I even felt bad for Aemond one eye & I hate him.
The last scene was so powerful the music, the fact that you can tell Rhaenyra’s agony just from her back and when she turns the hard look in her eyes with the single tear she she’s for Lucerys. Can’t wait for season 2.
I like how they portrayed Rhaenyras as still protector of the 7 kingdoms because of what is to come in the north... but her son got eaten .. sooo that changes things a bit
that scene make me know bloody war will coming ss2 surely
Right!! 😁 Her wrath is gonna be crazy with damond on her side
The ending is so sad ,you can just see the change in rhaenyra. She didn't want to declare war immediately, but this loss will turn her mad like when Dany lost her people on Got.
She goin for house Baratheon asap
@@libertyprime2852 huh - game of thrones is the first book and name of TV show The ASOIAF was so far amazing. We need winds of winter
@@xancypillosi9497 I think he means seeing a queen go "mad"
@@setnomA do they?
You realize she lost her kingdom, two children, and her father in a span of 36-48 hours
Didn’t see you mention this, but I was intrigued by the fact that Daemon was not aware of the Song of Ice and Fire. Rhaenyra mentions it to Daemon because it has been passed on to each heir, so she assumed her father had shared it with Daemon since at one point he was the king’s heir. Yet, it is clear Daemon had no idea about, and the king had never shared it with him… does this mean he never truly believed Daemon would be his heir? Interesting stuff
The fact that Viserys tried so hard to have a son with Aemma seems to me as the best proof that he didn't want Daemon to ascend the throne; not because Viserys did not love his brother but because he knew Daemon's temperament too well.
@@dianasayson2846 We all have that family member you love them, but....you also fear what they are capable of as you've probably seen them act out repeatedly.
When he held Viserys crown he kinda lingered on it for a wee bit as if “I always thought I’d wear this” that being said, I imagine only the conquerors crown would’ve been good enough for Daemon.
I think it was more of an assumption that Daemon would heir cos of the patriarchal society. He was never officially named heir
He could've done it because he expected to have a son in the future.
@@paytonwithrow5989 this is what I think, he was holding out until he had a male son. Because he never gets a son, he resigns to Rhaenyra.
This episode was clearly the best of the bunch for this season. So many incredible shots. The actors just killed it on every level. It’s everything we could have hoped for in this series. I’m so glad they have Miguel as one of the key people at the helm. His GoT episodes were some of the best of the series.
When Daemon was singing to the dragon in Velaryon? I didn’t want the scene to end! It was so good. Matt Smith is such an incredible actor. He has really brought Prince Daemon to life! 👍
whos the dragon that he was singing to though? looked like a big one! ah its Vermithor.
O didnt understood that scene. Why he goes there and sing ți the dragon?
@@akybosule because he will bring it to war
@@akybosule I'm guessing it's a older dragon that's no longer got a bonded rider. He's singing it sweet songs probably to soften him up so he can use it later as a surprise when he goes to war.
I wonder just how big or even bigger it is compared to the other.
@@sneakysmoker3775 think its slightly smaller than Vhagar
The moment Lucerys started heading to Storm's End, I had to stop watching for about 20 minutes just to prepare myself for the heartbreak. It was sad in the book, but Elliot brought Lucerys to life and made my maternal instincts come out. I wanted to hide him under my wing and keep that poor kid safe. And the way Arrax ran towards him like a puppy. My heart couldn't take it. Interesting change that Arrax and Vhagar went rogue. I liked that part, but I'm still over here with the sniffles. Poor Luc and Arrax. 🥺
Ready for the Sowing of The Seeds next season!
i am still reading fire and blood, but i cant wait to find out who is elliot. can u please tell me who he is?
@@gabrielleh.2845 😂 Elliot is the actor of Lucerys!
It's a longshot. Lucerys may survive, and abandon the cause that almost cost him his life.
Stranger things have happened in the realm.
@@aegonbreakspear9102 stop will ya, he's mangled ffs
I absolutely agree. Those spinning wings just did me in.
Matt Smith has such a lovely singing voice. I hope we get more of it in the seasons to come ☺️
I watched it a few times, where he was singing. Very believable, and his way of calling in the Dragon.
Your forgot to mention how Raineys whenever they had a scene acknowledging Rhaenyra as queen, she never nodded her head when she was announced as queen, nor did she bow when they were making oaths. The camera cut away before they actually showed her do either. I thought that interesting. Like she's with her, but she's only with her begrudgingly.
I kind of saw it as symbolism for them meeting in the middle. There's a lot of bad blood between them, but I think they've both finally come to respect one another as people and women in power the last few episodes. Also, I *technically* don't think Rhaenys bowed because Corlys hadn't arrived to officially declare Driftmark for the Blacks yet.
I peeped that immediately
I think it emphasises how in many ways, they are equals.
But when she convinces corlys to side with them bcuz of there grand daughters marriage to the boys she's fully in by that point.
@@MoejiiOsmanTV Corlys has a soft spot for those boys blood or not, he considers them his grand children and he has always looked out for them! What really drove it home for him is when she said those boys will never be safe as long as the greens are on the throne! Then in walks Corlys injured and all ready to stand for the blacks at the meeting of the council… even though his screen time isn’t as significant as other characters he is definitely one of my favorites!
When Vhgar flew above Arrax at the start and seeing the sheer size difference, you just knew it was about to be a bad day
Arrax didn’t stand a chance 🤦🏾♂️
Like seeing Leia’s ship and then the star destroyer chasing it in the opening scene of Star Wars.
I think we can all put aside missing the younger version of Rhaenyra, as Emma D'Arcy absolutely killed it in this episode.
Killed it doing what? Another birth scene? She did nothing this episode
@@agroumoutis you have a poor grasp of acting. She is wonderful.
I think we are allowed and capable to have more than 1 emotion. I miss Milly still and I'm also in awe of Emma's acting.
The look she gave at the end actually made me think of Milli.
They didn’t really give her much to the work with since she took over from Milly.
Milly killed it but I think they just wrote her more spunky & aggressive
First of all, I love the pace of this season. Even with time jumps, they offered us a lot of inner struggles and thoughts. These dialogues are everything! Second, I adore these references and parallels we can see between Rhaenyra and Daenerys. They are wise women in a man's world and yet they do possess Targaryen's proneness to madness and irrational decisions. The last scene and Rhaneyra's facial expression reminds me of the look that Daenerys had when the Mountain decapitated Missandei. P.S. I am reading a book now, and enjoying descriptions of their ancestors.
@@dv9239 It's not like your life depends on it, just don't watch it, and don't watch videos about it xD, as simple as that.
The acting in this series has been outstanding. Matt Smith & Emma D’Arcy were 🔥 in this episode. I’m just sad we have such a long wait for season 2 😞
Me too
Will it really be 2024?
@@dc7117 I think so, sadly
@@chazfromtheburg Yes. Sadly. I wonder what's the big hold up? By then, I'll need to watch all 10 episodes again, which isn't a loss. Lol.
@@dc7117 I think they only officially ramped up for season 2 of HotD after the success of the pilot episode. But I'm sure others know much more about the production schedule. I'm just impatient lol
While watching the scene of lucerys leaving for stormlands, i was literally yelling "don't go, come back"... And the scene of vhaegar resting when lucerys was entering the storm castle was madness.
When he saw Vhaegar he should have gotten on his dragon and waited it out but this is GoT!
@@tagalilly my thoughts exactly!
@@tagalilly right, and the sudden digestion of Luke and arrax was so GoT.
@@rtee4205 I bet she wasn't even hungry!
In that shot she looked like Godzilla 😅🦖
Like many, i loved how Lucreys death was portrayed. Really just shows how the bond between rider & dragon isn't so straight forward. Arrax sensed lukes fear and jitteriness and Vhagar sensed Aemonds dismay and hatred for Luke.
And Syrax sensed Raenerya’s birth pains. This whole episode was full of dragon/rider world building. Love it!
Dragons have always been noted to be capricious
I don't think Aemond did ever hate Luke. Aemond was definitely mainly having fun power tripping, he didn't even seriously want to take Luke's eye, it was about the fun of the chase like some bully in an 18 wheeler running someone off the road. I think Aemond's actor was also trying to convey this about Aemond at the dinner, he wasn't upset about his eye and angry, he was making a light-hearted joke with the pig and pointing out how it's all silly in retrospect, they were just kids, but it's also something silly to play a game with, to someone like Aemond it's all about playing a fun game, and this is the point where he lost control of the game.
How TF are they supposed to defeat that big a$$ dragon!?!?
Granny Vhagar had some major PTSD like in that old hag's mind this whole thing was like "look Visenya im fighting dorne" meanwhile nomming on Arrax.
It's so funny how Aemond only comes to life when in the presence of his nephews. Whenever he lays an eye on them his personality jumps out his chest so quickly lol. Even b4 losing the eye the way he starts fighting them to the death with the girl cousins over the Mom's dragon. He didn't even go nuts when they pranked him with the pig... kinda weird. Other than that he's just looks mad quiet to himself and out of touch
I love how Lucerys, upon seeing Vhagar towering beyond the caste walls, certainly thought "We will not fight here. The laws of men and decency still apply, even in times of war."
What a finale!!!😢 this show doesn’t disappoint. The kid died and he was a good, brave little man. Awesome acting.
He definitely was. Arrax, his dragon, was in a full blown panick when Luc emerged from Storm's End's keep - and the young man calmed the dragon with a few Ancient Valyrian words, and had the dragon mostly in hand. Arrax attacking Vhagar was just the risidules of panick of a young dragon facing off against a massive, ancient predator. That scene was one of the best filmed scenes I've seen in a long time. Luc killed it; wish he was able to stay around long. Excellent acting.
Daemon definitely isn't the only one who thinks the Hightowers poisoned Viserys. I can almost guarantee most of the green council thinks they did too. They just don't care
makes no sense
@@N3r0ThlHeavyMetal
The King never declared Aegon 2nd the heir for 20 years, but as soon as he was dead, he told his wife in secret with no other witness than he wanted Aegon 2nd to be king (at least this was what Alicent heard). This is already a major red flag.
Everyone saw King Viserys at the dinner with his family. Remember, he was in bed for years. People thought he might have gotten better, and boom, he died that night. Another red flag.
100% makes sense that people got suspicious about the cause of his death. Especially when there was a literal coup that happened the day after his death.
lord Beesbury, the older man who Criston killed in the small council, also seemed to think Viserys was murdered. He was a real one. He was the only one in that room with commonsense and loyalty. Too bad loyalty gets you killed..... still salty about Ned.
in episode 9 when Deamon and Rahneyra came to meet Viserys, Deamon smelled the cup from which Viserys was given medicines, Deamon had doubt that there was something fishy something going on with Viserys medication...
Actually, milk of the poppy is considered poison, it takes pain away but accelerates the decay of a body and everyone was ok with poisoning the King in silence.
“A dragon is not a slave..” - Denaerys. “The idea that we control dragons is an illusion..” - Viserys. Aemond & Lucerys learned that in a hard way…
Luke’s Valyrian was beautiful. Probably the best in the series so far.
Anyone noticed how rhaenyra brought baela, and rhaenyra to the table ...it was very symbolic ....the 1st queen Bringing more women to the table ... I loved that!!
Agree. I nice moment ❤
didn't realize that, thanks for point it out(not sarcasm)
I loved that, I wish Rhaenys was there too she’s such a badass
Its so cool how supportive of women you are!
Yes! I was looking to see if anyone mentioned this.
Vhagar’s vertical climb behind Arrax before Lucerys knew he was there was one of the best visual moments in this episode. Shows the size difference of the two dragons in a masterful way, and shows how outmatched Arrax is if/when things go sideways. Note to self, dont let my dragon breath fire on a dragon that’s only about 10x larger.
The oldest dragon left in the world, she's 120yrs, was visenya targareyeans first the sister wife of aegon the conquerers mount but has had like 6 riders since the conquest. She's battled hardened that's why seeing aemond not able to control her was amazing and that the targareyeans hold on the dragons is merely an illusion like viserys said. The closest oldest dragon is cannibal at around 80, he's one of the "untamed dragons" daemon was talking about
you'd think that arrax being so small he could out maneuver vhagar but like they explained these dragons don't know war.
It was a defense mechanism arrayx felt threatened and wanted to defend himself and also wasn't really listening to luc either and like Charlie said Dragons are Apex Predators and have a fight or flight response both chose to fight
If I didn't know that was gonna happen, I would have been sure that Arrax could've outmaneuvered Vhagar, think a cargo plane vs a fighter jet. I wish I was coming to this series green, it'd be even better
@@BirrDetonator1989 it was the storm that slowed him down. then at the end, he was just out of gas and unable to react.
What i love about the show is there are both sides of the story. The books are written from Maesters pov so it tend to make one side sound bad and one good in many occasions. The show gives us scenes of what actually happened
😊 other versions of what could have happened
What stood out to me:
1. Rhaenyra at the end of episode 1 and episode 10 I think was intentional. At the end of episode one we see a young girl showing trepidation, as well as a little pride and hope as she is named heir. Juxtaposed to her at the end of episode 10, now Queen who has just lost all hope for peace. Trepidation has turned to rage. You can almost see a vain popping in the middle of her forehead.
2. I think Daemon continued in the war room while she was in labor because it was a reminder of his experience with Laena. Focusing on the planning of war kept him distracted and focused on something else.
3. I think he choked Rhaenyra at first because he feels she’s going soft and he wants war. But I also think at a certain point it turns to anger and jealousy that his brother did not share the prophesy with him when he was his heir, but he shared it with his daughter.
The last 10-15 minutes of this episode were the most nerve wracking of the season. So sad to see Luke die, he had so many touching moments with his mom this episode. I don’t know how I’m going to make it the next couple of years until the next season 😅
Try get a hobby, go to the gym, read a book.
@@12345Yeah hahah maybe u should!
Hopefully we wait one year rather than a couple…
@@12345Yeah take your own advice
@@maxschrickel6683 I already do, basic enough, passes the time, keeps me occupied.
I love your comparison of the Targaryens “controlling” their dragons to people keeping wild animals as pets. They may form a special bond but in the end, they still have this primal instincts that goes into overdrive. Also, watching the dance of dragons in Stormlands made me feel like I’m watching a fight between a flying godzilla and Toothless with Hiccup (How to Train Your Dragon). 😢
🎯🎯🎯
the exact scene that came to my mind too
Also ironic that the scene happened precisely because they hadn't trained their dragons lol
I wish Arrax was a night fury like toothless.
Viserys knew his brother, he knew what Daemon was like. Deep down Viserys knew Daemon wouldn't put much stock into Aegon's Dream about the Song of Ice and Fire. Daemon even said that war is not won with dreams but with strength.
People don't give enough credit to the muted horror behind Aemonds face. That was his nephew, he really didn't want to kill him and killing a family member will change him. I think we're gonna see him either become more prone to emotional outbursts or he'll grow even colder. I guess it just depends how the writers will want to play it out
Poor Rhaenarya, recieved the sad news of her beloved dad, lost her baby & then lost her son... I felt bad for her
Terrible and so 😔 😟 sad
I was not expecting that.
Daemon was right they should went to war right away. Now Luke is gone wow
The look on Rhaenyra's face after Damon tells her of her son's death reminded me of the look on Daenerys face when she decides to burn the the city down on her dragon.
I wonder how Daemon knew what really happened??? Or who did it
Right!!!
@@MrAlvarez23 one of the commenters said it was when he went in the dungeon to talk to the other dragon and saw it in his eyes. Repeat that scene again and youll see
arrax only attacked vhaegar after she tried to grab him with her claws and seemingly nicked him in the process, was a brief scene that was/is easy to miss bc of how dark the lighting and quick the scene was.
Exactly!
Also took notice that Aemond (unlike Luke) didn't use high valyrian when trying to command his dragon Vhagar, he used common tongue.
When you think you're the s*it and you're an actual s*it 😑
@@octaviapatrichi4685 thats cap he used high valerian and the end.
@@immanuelbb3259 by then it was already 2 late bc vhaegar was in berserker mode
What a scene with Vhagar flying above Arrax and them showing just how much bigger she is. I had this feeling of dread the whole time. Also, poor Rhaenyra giving trying to give birth and the cuts to Syrax sharing her pain. Awesome job HoD. Great episode!!
the fact that aemond and luke both didnt want that to happen makes it all the more scary and emphasizes what rhaenyra said about what happens when dragons fight. it was a feud between arrax and vhagar, luke just happened to be in vhagar's way. it was an animalistic duel. the dragons became unhinged. what will happen then when they're in the heat of battle? how much more destruction might they wrought that their riders had no control over? scary.
RIP Luke and Arrax - they were just babies! Vhaegar was like a flying Godzilla or JAWS. They should have had the JAWS theme playing. Luke and Arrax should have stayed in the canyon and hide in a cave or backtrack and shake off Aemond that way.
Anyone noticed Lucerys seemed to have the best Valyrian accent? So flawless and not contrived when he was speaking to his dragon. Meanwhile, I still remember Laena Velaryon’s cringey “Dracarys”.
You mean the multiple times she said it whilst a baby was stuck in her birth canal? 😅Yeah very cringey.
@@KPbouj Yeah. That. She was not giving birth at the time. Truth is, she would have said it that way preggy or not. In fact, she said it slightly better when she was actually giving birth and about to be burned.
PLEASE don’t make us wait a long time for season 2…ugh!! This season was amazing!
I wanted to note that there has (apparently) been some scenes cut of Daemon being more fatherly and tender. There’s a cut scene of him hugging the girls after Laena died, comforting Rhae after Visenya and her saying to burn the stillborn, and him grieving on the beach. It’s interesting those scenes were cut from the show.
Ikr, I could not un-know that those scenes exist and they just ended on the cutting room floor, smh
Damn that would be nice too see. Is that in the book?
I believe there is also a scene of Daemon training Lucerys and Jacaerys to fight at dragonstone that was cut.
@@MrAlvarez23 He's very close and attentive to his daughters in the book. That's what I was excited most to see on screen.
I think I read somewhere there was a twitter thread of one of the directors who wants Daemon to be unlikable. She was surprised that he has such a positive following (like how could you not love Daemon lol) but they cut these scenes of him being human to make him more dislikable.
At first I was skeptical of how good this show will be considering how Game of Thrones ended. Now, I’m convinced this is going to be one hell of a series. I just bought the book because I can’t wait till 2024.
Book is not that accurate tho.
Ahahaha.. Same to me.
I can't wait for another year.
Just read the book. 😆
2024?!
Title of the book pls. and where can I buy it? Thanks!
@@pssg_magalimmw_alpha501 The book is Fire and Blood. With that said, it doesn't solely cover the Dance of Dragons and is presented as a history book produced from a number of historical accounts (some conflicting/unreliable).
9:00 i think Daemon is distancing himself his wife having a troublesome birth bc he's thinking about what happened to his last wife dying during a hard birth and not wanting to have to deal with that situation again. Notice he keave when he's asked if he wants to call a maester like when the maester was talking to him about deciding to save the mother or baby and not wanting to make that decision with Ray.
Poor Lucerys and Arrax. If i were Lucerys, I would have tried to hide somewhere in the cliff and wait for Vhaghar's departure first
I really loved the design of the table with the map. Looks absolutely gorgeous. I love how the table is made out of black stone to represent obv Dragonstone. But also that it starts to light up and starts to glow this orange/red color which is a sign of fire, war etc. Just a really nice touch of symbolism.
Is this the same table stannis used in got?
@@ch76504 yep it’s the same as Daenerys in GOT where she is in dragon stone. Same table but not lit up
@@ch76504 yeah, it's supposed to be the table of Aegon the Conqueror
In one episode we watched a woman find out that she lost a father, a daughter, a son, and what was promised to her. I can't wait till we see her reaction in the second season. Also the end showed that Ameond isn't complete evil, just a little sadistic, but he clearly will have to deal with the consequences of his actions in some way.
What a great season. Just shows what happens when George is heavily involved with his own work 🥳
Just shows what happens in a show when they have his story to use. GRRM is a brilliant story-telling mind.
Just shows what happens when GRRM completes his books
Even vaguely can write better than D&D could in a million years😭
I loved the dragons of this episode. They gave me subtle and similar vibes to Avatar (the dragons flying over each other "prey vs predator" style) and Jurassic Park (looking for Vhagar in the rain).
I've never read the books nor will I, but I knew Luke was dying this episode but was hoping he wasn't. But the fact that Luke AND Arrax died... kinda hit me honestly. Like damn.
Short Luce running to his dragon was tragic. He looked so confused and scared. It was tragic all the way around. I don't know how Rhaenyra managed as well as she did. I can't imagine how it would be to lose a baby and an older child, plus my dad in one week. All of the actors killed this season. Emma D'arcy carried this episode on her shoulders and I cannot wait to see Rhaenyra lose it next season. I'll miss checking in on the Targaryens.
F
Ewan Mitchell the actor who plays Aemond was absolutely captivating. Such a good actor.
He plays the almost complete opposite type of dude in Last Kingdom, killed it there too
DAMN GOOD WRITING.. I only wish that Amazon would’ve put this much love, care, attention to detail and respect to Tolkien’s stories, instead of their own agendas.
Elliot Grihault was exceptional playing Lucerys Velaryon..I can’t help but 😭
What was Aemond expecting? He went after Arrax with Vhagar like a killer whale after a seal. He awoke its hunting instinct, that went uncontrollable after Arrax attacked.
I don’t think Aemon regrets his actions. He regrets the rippling effects of his actions.
Arrax* not Vermax.
@@artemes22 oops. Changed. Thanks
I think that he was so sure he could control Vhagar! He was super confident and of course it backfired!
I don’t think he realized the dragon he stole actually been in wars. So those instincts were something he didn’t know about. So when the smaller dragon attacked him, it was battle mode. Neither rider been in a war before.
Rhaeanys is another calm , queit & dangerous character. She didn't bow to Rhaenarya like the others did.
Rhaenarya is lucky to have her support.
Because she was waiting for her husband.
@@Geej420 yea but then corlys did and she still didnt bow, sort of a bitch move
Imagine how hard that would've been for her, at the Great Council where Viserys was named heir, Rhaenys was the legal legitimate heir as the only child of the Prince of Dragonstone. The Queen who never was watching a Queen be crowned must've burned inside
I think it was twofold. One one hand, Rhaenys has been bitter for years over being passed over. Corlys mentions how he had to stop in his bid for the throne, ie, fight for his wife"S place. Also, Rhaenys tried to tell Rhaenyra that men would seek to take her birthright. On the other hand, she had to feel a sense of triumph that a woman would rule, one of her blood and house, not a usurper like Alicent, seeking to rule through her son, like her father did with Viserys.
She was mature and cool enough to realize and decide, in both Aegon and Rhaenyra's coronations, that it was not her call to swear allegiance for her husband's house in a potential war. The perfect queen that never was.
Arrax was being bullied and went for Vhagar's left side like Lucerys went for Aemond's left eye... It felt like the extension of the boys' fight.
Great catch👍🏻
Awesome summary indeed mate!
Cant wait for session 2!
I think the key point of the 2 boys' dragon scene was really about reflecting what Visery said in early episode, that we always think the Targaryen controls the dragons, and that's not entirely true. The episode ending was basically 2 boys playing with fire, where Lucery could not control Arrax at the end, the fire spit on Vhagar's face was totally not under Lucery's command, neither was the killing bite was under Aemond's.
This is what the dance of the draons really means though or what game of thrones has always meant to represnt - it is not the people who toy with power, it's the people who think that they are toying with power, get toyed BY powers at the end.
This is a masterpiece.
I think that Luke’s tutelage of high Valyrian from his mother and Daemon helped massively. Aemond was a mummas boy until he lost his eye and she had no knowledge of dragons. We haven’t seen Aemond speak high Valyrian past the very basic commands when he was a child and he was trying to command Vhagar in a language he didn’t understand in combat. Ignorant rider, Unruly dragon.
Yeah I'm really curious if they're gonna show more of dragons going a bit berserk during the dance and causing further destruction than intended. But besides tumbleton I can't think of other situations where dragons went rogue from their riders in this civil war
@@iKennectz nah Aemond attended all those dragon training sessions when he was young AND he taunts Luke in high Valyrian “you owe me a debt boy”. We also see Jace trying to learn it beyond dragon talk and Rhaenerya telling him there’s no rush implying they don’t push it on their kids. I think Vhagar is harder to control b/c of size and age. But both dragons disobeyed their rider.
Daemon staring at the crown before crowning rhaenyra was such a powerful moment. You can see the combination of his brother dying, him always wanting the crown, and his loyalty to his family always coming first. The water scene made me think about how he just wanted to stay with his family and dragons on the other side of the world in peace….he’s still fighting that battle of what’s best for him and the loyalty to his family. He saw this coming before anyone and now he has to clean up the mess. I hope after his battle with Aemon he runs off with Nettles and lives in peace
And Maybe Nettles turns him into the Night King
@@adre4090 Please say your being sarcastic.
He was looking at the crown to see if it was the real crown.
Doesn’t daemon and nettle both die?
@@arineido Rhaenyra orders nettles to be executed but she escapes on sheepstealer and after Daemons battle with Aemond Caraxes, Vhagars and Aemonds body’s are all found but Daemons isn’t so it up to interpretation whether he died or not
The pic at 7:38 "The Hand" and "The Feet" I'm dying 😂😂😂😂💀
My theory at the end is Daemon becomes the NIght King. His ambitions to become king has led him to become a "king". He will discover it through the dagger, which eventually wound up killing him when Arya got the dagger. Imagine seeing Daemon become the Night King at the end of the whole series. That would explain the Night King's strong ambition in GOT why he wanted to conquer the south.
The night king is a stark.
....wtf?
I love the fact that what happened between the dragon shows that the targaryens were never in control, and it is just an illusion love the episode.
You seen that in the main show when Drogon snapped at Danearys and when Raeghal and Visearion did as well in the dragon pit great connections!
Thank you HOTD for renewing my faith in TV GoT.
nice!
I'm so grateful that we have such passionate showrunners (especially Ryan Condal, who is a massive fan of ASoIaF).

I’ll take a finale full of drama, plot building and trajectory over eye candy battle scenes any day. HOD did a brilliant job doing so in season 1. Absolutely brilliant. It’s so good to have the real Game of Thrones back again. 10/10

@@rahbeeuh Cmon Joe Baratheon?? that just doesnt match a proper Baratheon XD
“Lucery’s bits” 🤣🤣🤣
Vhagar flying over Arrax…one of the most terrifying views if you’re Luke. This was on par with any other episode of the season.
Aemond looking like Draco Malfoy in the most intense Quidditch match and Luke was the opposing Seeker. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! Glad it was slightly different from the historical text and showing Aemond terrified that he screwed up big time.
The strong boys do look like Harry potter
I kind of love how it's portrayed as an accident here instead of him just being ruthless in the books. It makes the event that follow Even more tragic. It also make more sense because as tough as aemond think he is not on daemon's level yet he's still just a boy himself. He'll get there by the time he pays a visit to the riverlands.
He never gets to Daemons level-Daemon makes sure of that. I will give him prpos for even showing up-granted it took him 13 days-I also think he thought he'd have the advantage being on the larger dragon. Either way, he's just a Daemon wanna be
@@slabbyfatback2272 I think he’s better then that piece of shit 😂😂😂 I mean he’s more noble in away and the whole series is kinda crazy they fuck each other a lot not really fun for me at all but still luv some of it
Despite knowing that he intentionally wanted Lucerys dead in the books, seeing the episode made it more shocking as in the show he didn't actually wanted Lucerys dead, makes it more tragic.
I feel that way too. Making him regret for killing Luce was an interesting change but isn’t this the second accident and miscommunication on the Green side’s part. First Alicent who usurped the throne over miscommunication and now Aemond who killed Luce because he couldn’t control his dragon. It feels like they are starting the war because a series of oopsies which again feels like they are downplaying the characters imo.
@@tiltedguy140 the books are historically inaccurate while the show is telling u what actually happened, aemond didn't mean to kill his nephew it makes him a kinslayer now which he hates being called in the books
Wow. Just wow. My hands were on my head the whole time in the ending scenes. Killer ending, although sad…RIP Luke and Arrax. Here. We. Go….(but now we have to wait)! Great summary on what’s to come in future seasons.

Daemon being an anagram fro Aemond is a nice touch. It's like he looks up to Daemon as a father figure other than Christon because Viserys wasn't much of a father to Alicent's children!
Aemond is a huge Daemon fan. Remember the look of interest after Deamon killed Vaemond?

Of all the scenes this entire season, it's the birthing scenes that scared me the most - both of Aemma to Baelon and Rhaenyra to Visenya. They sing songs of wars and battles when it really is the birthing bed that have claimed the most blood. Mygahd, how lucky we are to live with modern medicine.
My heart skipped several beats with that violent moment 😥
Great video! It has helped me to clarify the episode.
