Really loving the split screens, Sir Sean! This episode was great; although I know the one thing that might poke at me is how Laena ninja'd her way to Vhagar in her state. Lady must have super powers. 😂 Minor detail, I know, but things like that always bug me more on rewatch.

[@1.z7ii]

But was a boring character

[@a__i2g]

Also as stupid as Ned

[@quizzlybear]

It seems that since he's a crippled and therefore can't fit into the traditional and "honorable" mold of what it is to be a man in those days he was probably more or less neglected and forgotten. But this was a grave mistake as he's shown to be much more powerful than any of his family members could have ever fathomed. Men of those times, and even still to day, only think of power in very overt ways like strength and money. But power comes in many forms (many subtle forms) and Larys knows this. It's commendable how he didn't let his disability hinder him, but it's also terrifying what he has become.

[@andreim.5324]

Littlefinger + Varys = Larys. Seems about right 😂

[@vagrant1515]

I love the complicated relationships they've portrayed here. Daemon loves Laena. It might not be 'true love' or maybe not even 'in love' but he trusts her, respects her, and ultimately chose to save her over their child, where Viserys could not. Viserys said he loved his wife often. Daemon didn't need to say it in a single act. You can also tell that Rhaenyra and Laenor love each other, not in love, not a romantic love. But they trust each other. It's nice to see these many different shades of gray and a realistic spectrum of what love can actually look like.

[@clarencehalbay6042]

Lol there is no way to save Aemma, its either she die or she and the baby die.

[@Curtis006]

@@clarencehalbay6042 That's not how the Maester framed it. It was a choice and he needed a male heir. Aemma said she was done with birthing. The baby just didn't survive, ultimately.

[@AnxietyRat]

@Aneki Ryota yeah, Laena would have died, as well. because if the baby could not come out and could not be removed ...it would die inside of her and eventually turned septic which will kill her. So she was going to die anyway. So she took control and went out the way she wanted to go out.

[@franciscosouza8917]

Rhaenyra and Laenor love each other so much, Rhaenyra used her power to force Laenor at her side, throwing at his face that he doesn't care about his duty, partying and running away when he is needed. Also they didn't got the job done and provided a legit heir to Rhaenyra, which just weakens her claim and is the reason of everything bad in this ep. They truly love each other.

She did not ask Larys to murder Lord Strong and his heir lol, that’s why she is shocked. Alicent is all prim and proper (or likes to believe she is) and struggles to come to terms that one of her only allies at court and probably her best friend became a kinslayer, the highest sin of Westeros, allegedly at her behalf. And not only that, but Alicent also became an accomplice in kinslaying. This is not what she wanted and it’s an important turning point to her character, forced by Larys.

[@mattyice9535]

The sad thing is, Aegon, Aemond, Lucerys, and Jacaerys were friends (well maybe not Aemond. He appears to be the "butt of the joke" friend), and their parents, more Alicent than anyone, are pitting them against each other. It makes sense from Alicent's perspective why she'd think the way she does. She exists within this power structure, and uses it the way she was taught, by enforcing it. Rhaenyra bucks against the society she lives in, and because we know that society is so wrong, many feel inclined to be more supportive of her. I personally support her, but I can see the other side and that there is pragmatic merit to it. But to actively poison your sons against their friends is deeply wrong. Daemon was fascinating this episode. He clearly has affection and respect for Laena, despite that it seems their union is more of a beneficial partnership than a great love, and also seems to be very close to Baela (named after his father, Baelon the Brave. Both Viserys and Daemon seem to have been deeply affected by his passing. He must have been a remarkable man), his older daughter. But he also seems very emotionally closed off at times, and also seems to neglect his younger daughter Rhaena. The final scene with him and Laena during her birth was so tragic. He was present for the birth of his child, unlike Viserys with Aemma and Laenor with Rhaenyra. And presented with the same decision as his brother, he doesn't make the same mistake. You can see he shakes his head. But Laena overheard them, and made the decision herself. Something tells me this is the event that truly affects Daemon, setting him on a different path. RIP to Laena, rider of Vhagar. A true Valyrian Dragon Rider.

[@MrBrock314]

It's survival for Alicent. Rhaenyra's kids will eventually murder her kids no matter how hard Rhaenyra bucks against the system. As Otto Hightower said, Rhaenyra will have no choice and Alicent knows it. So, knowing the inevitable outcome, she prepares as best she can. Had Rhaenyra had actual Targaryen children, maybe they'd have a chance to intermarry and fix the problem but it's too late now.

[@friendlymushroom716]

I’ve felt like the pacing in general has been so fast. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still enjoying it, but we have jumped ALL OVER THE PLACE and we’ve skipped quite a bit of plot and character development, in my opinion 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@monajoy]

@@itsthatgirl98_ I don't think we will be seeing more of him tbh. I think it also said on IMDB that Emma D'Arcy will be in 6 episodes but she wasn't in the other episodes before ep 6. I agree! It was like they only gave us one crumb and then took the whole bread away. Very unfortunate since we as an audience didn't get the chance to empathize with his character like we did with Ned Stark for example in s1 of GoT who also died very quickly. Then again, Harwin was only mentioned briefly in the book so maybe this is why the showrunners wanted to get rid of him fast

[@monajoy]

@@friendlymushroom716 yeah for sure. I didn't really mind tho the first 5 episodes since the smaller time jumps made sense overall. This episode however went too fast regardless of the 10 year time jump in my opinion. It made it quite overwhelming to follow as a watcher. Maybe an episode a few years before ep 6 would've been nice in between so that we could have gotten to know Harwin, Lyonel and Laena a little better. They couldv'e showed a little more of all their relationships. I think the showrunners are trying to move as fast as the book instead of adding more nuance to the backstory. It seems like they want to get to the Dance of the Dragons/the civil war as fast as possible. Hopefully the pace will be better moving forward. We'll see!

[@venusbrownreacts]

@@monajoy I have heard that there should be one more small time jump then it should be steady from there. I do feel like the last two episodes were too much too fast (at least the end of the previous), leaving a lot of gaps for us to make assumptions about.

Mothers dying in the effort to try and birth children that are Targaryen is really one of the central plot lines of this whole series. Leana was half Targaryen but even she couldn’t survive the effort of delivering a male child that was pure Targaryen. Her daughters had far more of her bloodline in them than Daemons, hence their easy birth. The book even mentions how much they resemble their grandfather, Lord Corlys. Look at Jon Snows mother. His birth killed her as she wasn’t Targaryen at all. Theirs is a magical bloodline and it drains the mother’s life force or something. Pure Targaryens can really only breed pure Targaryens with other pure Targaryens. So many non Targaryens died in childbirth if you read ‘Fire & Blood’ carefully!!

@@melissablackwood It's also confirmed that her baby is deformed and stillborn, too, which the show doesn't clarify, which makes the scene so much worse since Laena essentially runs off and kills both herself and her baby. I get the whole "dragonrider's death" thing, but it just seems selfish and borderline evil to take the baby down with her. They could've executed this so much better.

Yep more ridiculous shit but people lapping it up

@@sfLionheart "Borderline evil"?

[@polienskiplay]

I've never seen anything like it... Good job everyone, nice reaction.

[@ayakid921]

Lyonel and Viserys are two very honourable men who let their family ruin their legacy as a consequence of their leniency and love for them.

Danke!

[@joseaguilarjaque6851]

who won with death of Harwin ? Rhaenyra, and who loose? Alycent. Harwin alive was dangerous to Rhaenyra´s sons. I think someone is a double agent and Rhaenyra give order to kill both Strongs guys. Sorry my english.

[@ВалентинЖданов-р9е]

The tension is growing more and more and it will only get worse and worse...The deaths of Leinira and Harvin are already different from the original source, which leaves the intrigue that the series follows a different narrative

[@blackpearl3969]

Harwin's isn't really different..it just happened after Dragonstone and when joff was older..but he died in the fire

[@ashwagandha7164]

@@blackpearl3969 I'm sorry I haven't read the books but could you tell me if in them it was LITERALLY Daemon who killed Harwin?

[@blackpearl3969]

@@ashwagandha7164 no there are options up to interpretation like everything in the books. Could have been Corlys or Viserys to protect their children reputation but I mean after more than 10 yrs it doesn't make sense to me. It could have been Daemon to get rid of all the competition (possible but I still think it wasn't him) and Larys which was always the most proper option.

[@ashwagandha7164]

@@blackpearl3969 Thanks, all the reviews I've seen (in Spanish) say it was Daemon.

[@blackpearl3969]

@@ashwagandha7164 yeah I know many people think that and It could have been but I think he rather did Laenor instead of Harwin, idk I have this feeling. Larys on the otherhand we saw on the show and to me It makes much more sense

In my end, I want to die a dragon rider's death

[@giuliainglisa179]

Is there a hope that Ser Harwin is still alive? Despite the fact in the books he dies in fire but the creators can change the story as it was for Jorah Mormont… he would’ve died earlier instead they carried him on! I really hope so

[@justbeyondmythoughts]

No. That man is dead. You saw his body.

[@SolusArmatura]

No, that would alter the plot and lead to another Game Of Thrones season 6-8 train wreck when the showrunners threw out the source material and did their own thing.

[@supernatural5354]

I hope he is alive

[@kushagraasrivastava7802]

Good..but you should've included the Helaena scene😶
