Daemon is such a troll, I love him. Stealing an egg, specifically the one Rhaenyra picked out for the baby, sending a letter with every triggering idea he could think up including lying about getting married and having a baby, just for some attention. And then immediately folds because Rhaenyra calls his bluff immediately and is like "I know you're a lying liar who lies, and since we both know there's no way you're gonna kill me you better stop acting out!" is just gold. Truly iconic scene 😂

No. He did all that for Rhaenyra. He wants to marry her at some point or whatever. He won't kill her, he did all that attention thing, chose the egg SHE picked because he knew she would have some say and I would give the egg back which is a power move if you're planning something and boy oh boy, Daemon is planning something hardcore.

[@richardbrown3055]

I love the way they are subtly portraying that the underlying core of Daemon’s character is that he loves his family, and I think Rhaenyra understands him better than anyone else, and for all of his posturing, I think she still knows that she can trust her uncle, they have a similar banter about him staying in her castle that they had about him sitting on the throne. I think Daemon’s line at the end of the episode is the most telling for his true character, and his sense of honour and loyalty, the king is his brother and so he can speak about him however he wants to, but don’t think that means you get to cross those lines in front of him.

The look Rhaenyra gives Otto after getting the egg back is priceless.

What I love about that scene between Daemon and Corlys is how it clearly established how Daemon cares about his family. Essentially telling Corlys, "I can mess with and talk about my family how I want to, but you can't." Daemon is really up there as my favorite character. He's such a rogue and charismatic trickster. He's cold and conniving on the outside but a big softie on the inside.

[@zulawoo]

Yep. let the dragons only please be there when they are needed, exactly in moments like this. Too much will become boring.

[@iremainteague5653]

The scene with the maggots was my favorite. In that scene we see that King Visyres wound on his hand has only gotten worse and its the wound he got when he sent his brother away, the wound, like their relationship has festered. Also the symbolism there, the King's hand is rotten. It could be physical and a reflection of Otto Hightower, who pretty skillfully manipulates the king into marriage with his daughter.

[@qseaton5770]

Rhys Ifans is killing it as Otto Hightower I hate him so much already.

[@IanM92]

This was a masterclass in character detail and political maneuvering. Some will find it’s subtlety boring. I find it’s refusal to appeal outside of its niche audience refreshing.

The opening is the Targaryen family tree. Sync the time stamps with the episode: 0:04 - Doom of Valyria and Aegon's crown 0:13 - Rhaenys and Visenya 0:20 - Aenys 0:27 - Jaehaery and Alysane 0:35 - Baelon and Alyssa 0:43 - Daemon 0:50 - Viserys and Aemma (Arryn sigil) 1:00 - Dead Baelon 1:10 - Rhaenyra If you look closely, you can actually see the gears drown in blood in the order that they died (Alysanne’s is submerged before Jaehaerys’, Alyssa’s is before Baelon’s, and obviously Aemma’s is before Viserys’). Using the GOT theme is a smart move because it would be very difficult to beat it, so any other theme Ramin created, people would compare it to the old one. I understand why some people wanted a new theme, but no one dislikes GOT's opening song.

To be honest idk how you worked any of this out since I couldn’t really see half the sigil coin jawns that popped up.

[@nickwittednonpareil]

I think thematically having the music unchanged in House of the Dragon signifies the importance of "The Song of Ice and Fire" in driving the events of both stories since we learned last week that it is a secret passed through the Targaryen royal line.

[@mellasius6240]

'Show' not 'tell'. This is how you adapt an epic fantasy book to screen. Daemon's interaction with Rhaenyra and Corly gave us a deeper insight into his character compared to a certain main character in a certain soon to be aired epic fantasy adaptation 😅. We see that Daemon, with the right way, can be approached, can see reasons, but not easily manipulated.

That first season was a masterpiece. It does so much so efficiently with phenomenal pacing and structure. HOTD has been phenomenal too so again we shall see. But people are getting way too excited about calling it better than where Game of Thrones was at the same time.

I was not expecting it so soon!

[@Izanami037]

Finally watching your reactions and since you’ve posted your 1x06 one I can say when you said “Now marry my daughter” when Corlys was talking to Daemon I was like “He will.”

[@armand531]

Two great episodes so far! Can't wait for next Sunday!

[@juliant]

The king just had his rob stark moment, choosing to marry the wrong woman... I'm not looking forward to the eventual red wedding-style betrayal.

[@ben17ism]

I was really intrigued if they'll dare try to create a family tree for the opening. And they did... sort of. They didn't make a family tree, but "bloodlines". I LOVE IT.

“Kill me now” “wElL FiNe - tAkE tHe EgG” 💀 😆 Daemon is what we call A Simp 🤌🏼 in reality bro loves his familia. People say daemon is reckless and throwing tantrums, I actually think he picked that specific egg to see rhaenyra… (as well as being a clown cause he provokes everyone lol) idk man idk he’s doing something tho, I don’t think his actions are just basic attention grabs. They may be tho too he keeps being set aside Best scene so far, the shots were so clean. Viserys just made the same mistake that Robb Stark did, and Raeghar…. Chose his own want and therefore inevitably losing in the future.

Although Rhaenyra did apply logic to her choice to appoint Ser Criston Cole as a knight of the king's guard, she knew he was the only one who had seen combat beforehand; that's why she mentioned the battle at The Stormlands. The reason she said that is so she would have a subtle excuse to appoint him, because she has a thing for him. She was looking around the courtyard for him the entire time, she's completely enamored with that man. And she thinks she's slick, but Otto knows what she's up to. That's why he smirks at her when he says "Of course, Princess..." -

this was another great episode cant wait for the next one it looks awesome.

[@jorgekech]

i think was a weak episode

[@levilevi9621]

The dialogue in this show is excellent.

[@__Nightmare_]

Daemon is Rhaenyra's uncle not cousin/brother.

[@alexw492]

This show is sizing up to be absolutely incredible. So excited for the next episode.

[@NoBodyMakesMeBleedMyOwnBlood]

Setting up for civil war, Dance of Dragons

[@hessu275]

It gets intense quickly. I can't believe it's only episode 2 that has came out

[@ginacontu4131]

You guys are so on point beating everybody!!! And thank you not talking all the time cause it can be distracting on some parts.

[@joebond545]

This is peak season 1 game of thrones, GOT Sundays are back baby😍

[@riverphoenix6913]

I love that's fast but not rushed too.

[@rickyeager354]

Great job covering this show,,, Game of thrones and House of the Dragons are my fororite shows ever.. i get goose bumps watching....

[@tristramshandy4063]

I had no idea that Daemon Targaryen would be my favorite character

[@mellowenglishgal]

Your anticipation at the reveal was wonderful! Steve Toussaint stole this episode!

[@conniepelkey287]

I am listening to this while working in a project and when I heard Mysaria speak she sounded like Tysha in GOT

[@KimmieKayy]

These scenes are so gorgeous and unhurried!

[@dpacc88]

Seven hells that was a quick edit!

[@neomoscoso10]

This is the relative calm before firestorms and bloodbaths. Soon it shall be time to dance.

[@dereckwallace1428]

I am loving this show so much. It came right on time. Such a perfect distraction from the murkiness of Marvel and the shyt show happening with DC. I can smile again.

[@theawesomeman9821]

Thanks for the reaction!

[@semajbrown259]

15:40 I literally said the same thing when I watched the episode. First thing that came to mind was Mufasa.

[@whylogicalthinking]

Thanks for showing what you’re reacting to and being like one of the 8 that do that and not try to just force themselves on us

[@aaronhall5715]

Love that Rhanerya picked for King's guard the guy who bested Daemon in battle.

[@aileenma7518]

I really want a prequel show with Corlys Velaryon and his seven voyages

[@Ashley_e]

Ray-knees (Rhaenys) 👌 this was a great review y’all

[@kellz9972]

I really love how the crabfeeder pirate is sort of being set up as a villain of the week. The GoT universe is a perfect setting and world for it.

[@BcTxUncBaLLa96]

OMG this was so fast!

[@szokemaria3877]

Never before a marriage proposal had a reaction like that from you two😀😀😀

[@gouravgupta5050]

Love Your Honest Reaction Guys. Love From India.
