@@adamhughes4387 Quite a random thing to be shown if it has no connection to some of his own subconcious. Every vision we've seen up until now has been about things he himself is conflicted by. I can't imagine why Alys would suddenly show him something random just so we could have a scene of him doing his mom. Keep in mind that this isn't the first time we've seen sex associated with motherly love in this show. Aemond, the guy who also never known any real motherly love from her own mother and who has had plenty of parallels with Daemon, has sought that kind of motherly affection from prostitutes.

[@nikdenver8512]

​@@krissuyxyes he might have. But he wouldn't be having sex with her given how shocked he was when she said her favorite son. That's what he thinks he is. He thinks he is this person who should have been crowned and a fearsome dragonrider. That's playing part while Alys is giving him dreams of his mom and also asks him about her

[@bloodraven6581]

[@danasow5317]

Alicent not being an affection mother doesn't mean she doesn't love her children. She literally stands in front of a dragon to protect Aegon in S1EP9 and we saw how she reacted when Aemond lost his eye. She loves her children but is afraid of what Aemond has become and angry at Aegon's carelessness. Both of which is due to her AND Visery's bad parenting. Its just funny how one minute TB fans claim Alicent doesn't care about her children and then the next are mad she won't put Rhaenyra before her children.

"Watch Walder still be alive" LMAOO TRUE

[@aquele4virou3]

Daemon barely knew Alyssa. And thats obvious bc he doesnt recognize her as his mother until the end, and then he is horrified. Also, Alys mentioning her is to imply she’s the one giving him the hallucinations about her. Same as she mentioned Rhaenyra after he dreamed about killing her. She is playing with him. And Alyssa didn’t look like that. Surprise surprise, she had dirty blond hair and mismatched green/purple eyes. Not every Targaryen has silver hair. Rhaenys had black hair actually, they changed hers. Queen Alysanne had golden blond hair (Rhaenys and Daemon’s grandma). But also, Daemon was 3 when Alyssa died after giving birth to his brother Aegon, who then died months later. Even funnier is how Viserys said in s1 Daemon was their mother’s favorite because he was a warrior lmao he was 3 The show cant decide if he knew her or not.

[@LauraGS564]

the show knows what it is doing. Just because it showed a dream does not mean he knew her. He clearly did not know who that woman was, it is telling the audience to keep an eye on what is happening. It is clearly a dream from Alys

[@krissuyx]

I think it still implies an Oedipus complex of sorts. There's been a lot of motherly affection associated with lovers in the show. Look at the way Aemond was being comforted by the prostitute, cradled in her arms like a baby. Daemon seeked comfort from Mysaria in the same way in season one at times. These are both men who never had motherly love and the only time they've gotten close to it has been with people they've been intimate with. Daemon and Aemond have had a lot of parallels beyond just that.

[@NapolianDynamite-lr4hg]

Excited to see the comeback for team black i think Mysaria might have sent the girl to turn people to Rhaenyras side and start looking for people with silver hair so they can use the dragons under dragon stone.

how are people blaming alicent again for everything, damn. Ofc she cares if her son lives or dies, she was mean to him but she loves all her kids, she putted herself between aegon and a fucking dragon, all she did was to protect her kids, she may not like aegon bc he's a bad man but she's still loves him as his mother, same thing with aemond, she's afraid of the person he's becoming but she loves him still.

[@DarthKay093]

Then she shouldn't have raised the boys to hate their half sister and her sons + not put the final flame to start the War with usurping Rhaenyra.

[@Alcinaswifefrfr]

@DarthKay093 the war started the moment Viserys sired a son, every action made by all the people around it influenced that. Otto putted the seed into her mind the moment he said to her that Rhaenyra would've to put Alicent's sons heads to the sword to have the crown without a challenge, which is true, any of Alicent's sons have a bigger claim to the throne than Rhaenyra (bc they are men in a patriarchal society). Viserys should've tried better to strengthen his daughter's claim, but he was lazy and stupid. He only talked about wanting peace in the family HE destroyed. Alicent only told her kids what her own father told her, which was the truth, solely blaming Alicent for something that definitely wasn't under her to control, doesn't make sense.

[@dark_wyvrenadrian3336]

She still loves them, but she was a child bride abused and manipulated by every man around her.

[@HouseoftheWerewolf]

The storyline involving Daemon and Alys Rivers, particularly the supernatural elements at Harrenhal, is both intriguing and well-executed. As a reader of the books, I find the portrayal of Alys Rivers by the actress to be exceptional. Her ability to hold her own alongside Matt Smith is impressive, and her performance effectively conveys the character's mysterious motivations and ambitions. This nuanced portrayal adds depth to the character, enhancing the overall narrative of the show.

[@CaptainPikeachu]

Jace continues to prove why he really is the true heir to iron throne, more than Aegon and Aemond. Yes Jace has the rashness of youth and not wanting to be cooped up, but he's also been very strategic in gaining alliances. Out of pretty much everyone, he has succeeded in gaining the most alliances to Rhaenyra's side. He got the greybeards from Cregan Stark in the North, he got safety and support from Jeyne Arryn at the Vale, and now he's secured the crossing at the Twins from the Freys. Rhaenyra has actually prepped her son well at being the future king.

Jace telling his mom that there must be others with the same blood, neither of them mentioning the fact that his dad is Strong. He was like surely if I can ride a dragon they can ride them too. That was a really good scene. And the powerplay in the small council chamber was really good. Aemond didnt say a word, they all voted for him, he just stands up "that's decided then" and takes the King's ball and walks over to the head of the table, sits down. Question, order, order, order, go! Really good stuff such a difference from the scenes with his brother. In some of the interviews the actress who plays Baela and the actor who plays Jace often joked about that they're the only ones in the show with a relationship thats not only not toxic but actually healthy

[@TerrorOfTheTrident]

the reasoning the writers had behind meleys’ head being the wrong thing to show after the battle was kind of silly to me. ryan condal said “meleys is a beloved dragon who probably flew over that city hundreds of times” and something about her being a symbol of the targaryens power or whatever but like???? do we not remember in episode 9 of season 1 rhaenys and meleys burst through the floor of the dragon pit and killed at least a couple hundred small folk? the writers must’ve forgot the scene they added in that wasn’t in the book lol. and to make it worse that scene replaced the part in the book where after the coronation, aegon flew around the city on sunfyre and then to the throne room. so by adding that unnecessary rhaenys scene that they then forgot, sunfyre wasn’t even shown until halfway through season 2 in the episode he gets super injured in 😭

Otto has been gone for 2-3 episodes now and Rhys is such a presence. the writers dont seem like they have any idea what to do with Helaena now... ugh. so it's relying on cole and Alienct and people absolutely despise and hate cole so much they groan whenever he's on screen. no one wants to see him. it's just a frustrating season.

I'm confused. This was episode 5 out of 8, and there were virtually no events. Did anyone remember anything important besides the death of Aegon's son and the battle of the dragons? The funny thing is that the conversations in the series do not help to truly reveal the characters; everyone was made into a cliché. On my own behalf, I will add that Rhaenyra’s desperate decision to bring new riders from the side branches of the Targaryens to freedom cannot lead to anything good. People will receive power, a dragon and... ambition to claim the throne, which is obvious.

[@krissuyx]

Cargyll duel was important too. Most of the big events in the Dance are, in fact, battles. They can't have many battles in a season. They have to space them out. The alternative is skipping even more battles or having battles of much lower quality. They're saving their budget and time for the really big moments, like Rook's Rest. Personally, I love the stuff in between. All the little conversations and character building. Most of this was not in the book so it's interesting to see how the writers of the show contextualize the events from the book and give personality to the characters, who arguably had very little in the book.

[@alexass8987]

@LauraGS564 So in the series there were no battles other than the fight of dragons. Even Cole's fight was reduced to shooting arrows and immediately moving into the sky. In Game of Thrones, a full episode of the season was dedicated to the battle, even with a minimal budget. I’ll tell you a secret, I’m not a fan of fights, but here they’re not just in every episode, they’re not there at all. We are simply told once again about the great victories of the Greens, which (conveniently) the viewer does not see at all.

The closest they've come to it has been with lovers so they may have a somewhat warped view of it. Daemon was comforted in a motherly fashion by Mysaria in season one, while Aemond was comforted in a motherly fashion by what's-her-face in the brothel in season two. It's yet another parallel between Daemon and Aemond.

That wicth is mess with damon head. He need to get out of there. I miss old damon

[@DarthKay093]

Makes me look forward to when she meets Aemond tho. She will have a field day with that one

[@Alcinaswifefrfr]

She's just showing his own mind to him💀💀

[@AegonJaeger]

I think it would have been better if it was Aemma instead, and it will connect to Daemon wanting everything his brother had.

[@tiernanrea1726]

Its just the showrunners barely disguised fetish.. daemon was a toddler when his mother died.

[@LauraGS564]

or they are showing Daemon's psyche. Maybe pay attention?

[@heyarnoldfan12]

@@LauraGS564lmao, you told someone to play attention when you’re clearly not. Alys is clearly planting these dreams and visions. All he knew was that was a beautiful woman. Alys says “it’s a shame you never knew you’re mother” because if he knew what she looked like he wouldn’t have been tricked in that vision

No Otto. No Aegon. Corlys, Daemon, and Rhaenyra sequestered and sidelined. A whole lot of Cole who people despise and hate so much they don't even want him on screen anymore. Alicent isn't far behind. the writers haven't a clue what to do with Helaena. the writing for Myseria's character has deteriorated. what is going on here?

[@Alerity]

this one was slow..... and daemon hallucinating all season is annoying.... just my opinion~

[@joeloates1685]

You need episodes like this though. They lay the groundwork and give more emotional depth and character moments.
