[@andalilbitqueer]

To clarify, the show made it ambiguous to not spoil the "surprise" but it's quite clear that when they asked Daemon what to do if they couldn't find Aemond, Daemon said they could kill Jaehaerys instead. this can be proven because although the scene cuts out, Blood later said Daemon told them "a son for a son" which can only have been said AFTER they asked him the original question. there's no reason Daemon wouldn't be averse to this type of vengeful and cruel murder, especially considering his first scene was also arguing for "a son for a son" edit after episode 2: since Ryan Condal said it was left up to interpretation, I still 100% believe that Daemon ordered his death, but I do love that both interpretations would still make him a bad person (my interpretation makes him a monster who's willing to murder a child, the opposite interpretation makes him a monster weaponizing incompetence to murder a child)

[@Noone91875]

Some people just couldn't catch these small details. I'm glad I'm not one of them.

[@hali_55]

Yeah, and there’s no other “son” apart from Jahaerys.

[@Thorfinn-]

Well, going based on your judgment of character and assumptions, one could also assume Daemon meant Aegon instead of Jaehaerys. Who would really want the head of a small child for your wife to be happy? Doesn't sound right... seems like something Rhyanera wouldn't like to see at all. She wanted AEMOND. Second best, Aegon. She wanted the boy that slaughtered hers. Not a defenseless baby.

hearing the stark theme in the beginning was so nostalgic, phia saban's (helaena) acting was so good in that scene, the way she basically dissociates after pointing to jaehaerys was so well acted.. the new opening credits starts from the doom of old valyria to aegon the conqueror until we get to rhaenyra and aegon.

[@yeppington999]

not so fun fact: The end scene was much more brutal in the books. When the assassins get to Helaena’s chambers they tie her and Alicent up. They ask Helaena to pick which of her sons they kill - the 6 year old Jaehaerys or 3 year old Maelor. Jaehaerys was the main target from the get go (not Aemond), they only gave her the illusion of a choice to torture her. When she refuses to pick they threathen her with r*aping her 6 year old daughter so she picks Maelor, hoping he’d be too young to understand what is happening. Blood then whispers into Maelor’s ear “You hear that boy? Your mama wants you dead” and strikes off the head of Jaehaerys instead. - yes i stole this sorry lol

I hate Aegon don’t get me wrong. But I love the way he sounded so pure and well intentioned in that scene when he was addressing the concerns of the common folk and tried to convince Otto to at least let that one guy have his sheep replenished cause “he came all this way.” It’s very minimal ik but I like that portrayal of him actually trying to help the people and how it’s Otto that has to ruin it.

[@patmcconnell9956]

@lgth.jne2 In the context of war and if you’re taking the green’s side, yeah. My point is that Otto’s presence/influence over his grandson allows him to manipulate Aegon in ways similar to how he influenced/manipulated Alicent. That he’s a bad guy whose only true interest is that of his house and in this instance, safeguarding them in advance of a war.

The fact that what Otto’s saying actually makes sense is irrelevant.

[@schnizzzle1244]

Just learned that Arrax, riden by Lucerys, was one of the three eggs from Syrax, Rhaenyra's dragon. Which means that Rhaenyra and her dragon both lost a son. And in that scene on the beach, they are both mourning the loss which makes that even more heartbreaking watching this back.

aegon treating the throne like a garage hangout session with his boys was sooooo good. i was curious how the show would handle his reign and i really, really like how they’ve characterized him here - ultimately surprisingly (not a joffrey - at least not when it comes to the smallfolk) well meaning but (no pun intended) very green.

[@Nokturnal89]

The intro is filled with so much lore. It shows the doom of valyria, daenys the dreamer seeing it coming. The biggest lore drop is what looks like the stabbing of nissa nissa. Its a legend from the great empire of the dawn, an ancient empire that existed further east of slavers bay that we thought was a progenitor to valyria and theres all kind of evidence they were ancient dragonlords. The stabbing of nissa nissa was what supposedly caused the 1st long night.

There is a bigger significance to the Starks sending the older men that Creegan called the Greybeards. In the main book series, they talk about how during long winters in the North, when food stores run low, the old men in the family will say that they are going out hunting, when in fact, they are leaving to sacrifice themselves in order to not be a burden on their family. A couple of times this episode it was said that they are on the cusp of winter. Older Northern soldiers would rather volunteer to go fight for a cause that they can support as an alternative way to not be a burden on their family. A similar scenario is discussed in the main book series for a different fight.

@@YounaPun Who do you think Blood got "A son for a son" from?

[@Adamantium93]

​@@YounaPunAemond was Plan A. Then, Cheese asks what they should do if they can't find him and it cuts away before Daemon answers. When in the castle, Blood, at multiple points, says "he said 'a son for a son'". That's about as explicit as you can be without Daemon literally saying it on camera. Plan B was that any son will do. Daemon wants Aemond dead but, failing that, he wants to hurt the Greens.

[@alluviumed1654]

@@YounaPunyes but blood and cheese also asked “what do we do if we can’t find aemond”, daemon won’t just ask them to “oh just leave” hence the son for a son title, daemon wanted to wound the green side

[@insertgenericusernamehere2402]

The ending of the episode is vastly different in the book but this is much more visceral because of the sounds. I don't think they'd be able to show the book ending on TV but damn.

[@nemomarc7841]

HOUSE OF DRAGON. Intense tragedy, the fire of anger is only the beginning. Can’t wait for episode 2. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🐲

[@aegonthedragon6341]

The rat catchers did exactly what Daemon told them to do. This is on Daemon not them. Because he is psycho in case you haven't noticed. But they gonna get it now, Daemon fucked up the blacks.

[@samgrosky575]

Notice at the beginning when Helaena says she's scared of the Rats, she looks directly at Jaehaerys' bed.

Daemon annoyed me so much this episode blaming everyone else. But I loved Aegon this episode, for all how uninterested and bratty he was season 1, he now tries to be a good dad, husband and king, and recognizes the smallfolk.

[@GurschlempfMurrtelburfge]

I don’t think he’s a good dad, he doesn’t know his son’s schedule or even the difference between his children. I feel like he just brought his son to the small consul to fuck around and cause trouble not because he genuinely cares

[@bigjoh02]

​@GurschlempfMurrtelburfge No i think its directly tied to him wanting to be a better father for his son than viserys was to him. That's why he brought his son to the small council. To prepare him to rule, something he wished viserys would've done for him. Now is he a great dad no but he clearly wants to do better than viserys

[@Drpavel564]

His daughter has special needs just like Helaena does. He didn’t want to touch her to bother her.

[@jensrettberg7968]

@@GurschlempfMurrtelburfge he's trying to become better but that happens not overnight, it would happen gradually but that's now taken from him

Not dragon brother arrax that died is the son of Syrax so two sons died and two mothers mourn in that scene

[@KelliFranklin]

I loved hearing the Stark music again!

[@cupofcait]

This was as close as I've gotten to feeling like I felt after the Red Wedding. I'm still stunned. Love the new opening sequence! We can finally tell wtf is going on

[@Cherryberryfruitt]

14:07 its believed syrax is arraxs mother, so syrax is mourning the loss of her son too :(

[@limeygal1]

In the book it was so much worse, a lot more detailed than on the show. It would have been a horror show putting it on screen. Having said that they really didn't do that episode of the book justice. Helaena went thru hell in that room and her story line has been brushed over so many times.

[@peteperkins3859]

Blood and Cheese. A son for a son. This world is brutal.

[@88happiness]

The death of Aegon's little son was sooo much worse in the books. I'm kind of glad they toned it down so much.

[@ramoncarter3121]

actually Syrax is female and Arrax was her son so they both lost a son

[@fakecubed]

Do dragons know who their relatives are? The eggs get taken away from them right after they're laid so the riders can try to bond with the dragons while they're still in their eggs. When they hatch, the mother that laid the eggs doesn't see the baby dragons.

[@Freya1412]

Arax is from Syrax. He hatched from one of her eggs. It's so sad. Rhaenyra and her dragon both lost a kid. 😢

[@bonniefoley387]

Rhaenyra is going to be so mad when she knows what happened. Daemon won't because he most likely ordered Jaeharys to be killed if they couldn't find Aemond.

[@cathleenwarner1778]

Just FYI, season 2 is 8 episodes

[@juliettadowney2381]

Daemon ordered this. It’s written in the book. “A son for a son”.

"Will you be my new son?" 👀

[@tomodachiotaku8004]

This episode should call Daemon the Pontius Pilate as you can tell they like to soften or modify the cruelty of Daemon and Rhaenyra

[@gailf1617]

"Will you be my new son?" Ha-ha.

Poor Halaena. Honestly the only green I actually like.

No guards around the queen and the heir while the lord commander of the kings guard is fucking the queen regent, big yikes.
