Hence the resentment also the bastard situation with all 3 of Rhaenyra kids isn’t a good look for the hole family as well. Allicent also knows that her eldest son Aegon has a claim to the throne and many people in Westeros would back his claim so he is a danger to Rhaenyra succession giving reason for Rhaenyra to kill all of Allicents kids. Also Rhaenyra has no true born heirs just bastards. I think Rhaenyra has been pretty foolish and naive into thinking she can get away with doing this and now Allicent is on to her

Loved the reaction. Y'all might be my favorite reactors currently for this show. Loved the GOT reactions. Viserys & Rhaenrya didn't make amends, they weren't at issue last episode. She understood why he had to do what he did in ep 4 & he fired Otto like she wanted so they were squared. Nothing last episode happened negatively between them. Alicnent on the other hand ended last episode literally hating Rhaenrya with all her guts. She never got over that anger. Thus why she acting like a bitch lol. Laenor knows the kids are Harwin's. He & Rhaenrya made the deal to sleep with others even while they marry each other publicly. He was cool with it. The kids name is Joffrey because that was Laenor's lovers name who Creston killed. Lastly, even though Laenor is aware they're not his kids he still treats them as if they are. And I must say the bullying they did to Aemond is like so tame compared to anything even my older bro did to me. Let alone compared to the type of bullying we often see in fiction or even in GOT world. Also Dragons can't be given to anyone. Dragons pick their riders, there is no true taming or Forceful claiming. Aemond doesn't have a dragon because none of the dragons in the pit want him. Viserys knows the truth about Rhaenrya's kids he just doesn't care because that's his daughter & regardless who she fucked the kids are his grandkids. I mean at the end of the day he's king period. He decides if it matters. She is heir & should be allowed to fuck whoever. But due to the era they have to lie. There's no choice but to lie period. Glad we're at this ep so we can put this whole "Rhaenrya would kill the kids" thing behind us. Aegon was friends with JAce/Luke until lame-O mom Alicent yelled in his face about his sister going to kill him even though there's not a shred of evidence pointing to Rhae ever even considering doing that. 10 years have past, & we've heard nor seen not a single piece of ANYTHING that justifies Alicent truly believing her family is in dangers. There's no reveal of any threats made in that time period from Rhae, no evidence anything was done by Rhae in that time. And there certainly wasn't shown anything like that in this episode. Rhae is a good person & Alicent never should've turned on her, she should've rightly kept turning on her POS Dad. 1st ep Caraxes was in daylight, 2nd ep he was in daylight too. start of 3rd was a night scene but we later seen him return to camp in daylight, he's in daylight in ep 4. We've seen his full design by now. But I agree his legs/neck/tail/literally everything about Caraxes is bad ass. Best dragon ever. I like how Daemon wants to be done with Westeros & live out his days peacefully in Pentos. I do wonder though, if he truly left & stayed permanently in Pentos/Essos. Would Viserys allow it? I mean that gives at least 3 dragons to Pentos now. Even if Daemon & his fam never attacked Westeros what about when they die & the Dragons pick new Pentos riders? (I'm aware it's implied only Targs can ride them but in the books there's def hints that others can too) Wouldn't they provide Essos nations a large step up in military power? Anyway I like that he wants to be out but it's Laena pushing him to return. She knew what we know. Daemon is greater than some chill farmer doing the bidding of another. He's THE blood of the dragon. And while I like her pushing him to that. I do think he has a right to be pissed at her for continuously trying to convince him to return. It's not her just wanting to visit home, she wants him to go back & assert himself into the politics again & make a bigger name for himself which he doesn't want to do. I don't think it's rude of him to fire back at her over this. I'm also very pleased y'all are making a stance on which side you're on. It's annoys me to no end when reactors play this "I'm not on anyone's side" bs. More so the majority of the time we clearly see reactors pick a side (Often team Black) & then the next episode (due to some members of their audience throwing a fit) they suddenly have gone neutral or suddenly have all these little "To be fair" critiques to make about the side they were clearly on. It doesn't matter what the audience thinks, pick the side you want to pick be it Greens or Blacks. The whole premise of the show is which side are you on? There's nothing wrong with liking the greens or blacks it's a damn show. Glad y'all aren't (so far lol) doing that.

I really dont understant poeple comparing Rhaenerya's situation to Cersei's !Cersei lied to her husband (who is far to be a decent husband or father, but still...) making him believe that the kids are really his, usurping the Baratheon name against his will and passing her kids are legitimate claimaints to this throne, while she actually could have given him trueborn children. It is not the case with Rhaenyra, Ser Leonor is fully aware of the thruth, accept it, is the cause of it all (even if it is not his fault nor Rhaenerya's that they foud themselve in this situation) and most important, beside knowing that the kids are not BIOLOGICALLY his, he loves them. I consider him to be their adopted father. Perdiod. As far the claim for the throne, Rhaenerya is transmitting the claim, no matter who the father is. The kids are recognized by their official "father", so trueborn by law (with no deceiving !). And even if it is not the case, they still can be legitimazed by a royal decree (the king or their mother once she is queen) and considered trueborn Targaryen...

Rhaenyra having a bunch of illegitimate children and placing them in the line of succession kinda is Alicent’s business. Cersei did that shit and people DID do something. The realm collapsed into all out civil war when they found out Joffrey was a bastard, and marched on King’s Landing to overthrow the monarchy. Rhaenyra talks about how high the cost of war is but she’s engaging in behavior that would launch the realm into war. With Alicent being queen, as Cersei said in GOT 2x9, her and her daughter would be in for a bit of a rape if King’s Landing were sacked. Afterwards her, Viserys and her children will be beheaded and their heads placed on spikes. So yeah….she has ample reason to care.

@@Nihilanth you are incorrect. In the world of ASOIAF illegitimate children cannot inherit land or title. Jace, Luke and Joffrey, regardless of who their parents are are Jace, Luke and Joffrey Waters, just like Tommen, Myrcella and Joffrey were Waters. They are all bastards who are ineligible to inherit either land or title, much less the throne of Westeros. Viserys said what Alicent was speaking “will bring about destruction” for the same reason Lyonel screamed on Harwin for his participation in Rhaenyra’s Bastard Factory. Passing illegitimate persons off as legitimate and placing them in the line of succession is an act of treason punishable by death. It doesn’t matter what house their parents belong to. If they’re born out of wedlock, they don’t qualify. Since Viserys is pretending nothing is wrong, he is complicit in Rhaenyra’s treason. Subjects who think those in power are holding them to a standard they themselves do not uphold tend to rebel. As I said, totally Alicent’s business.

The only person who doesn't think so is the king, out of pure denial, and that's where the frustration lies - the king is ignoring his own laws of succession for his daughter, making the truth itself taboo at court. Ned and Stannis experienced the same frustration at Cersei for her illegitimate children and the whole audience was on their side. Rhaenyra being heir isn't directly the biggest problem (although some people would prefer a male and believe there is legal precedent for that) - it's her heirs being illegitimate that is the main issue. Bastards are born out of dishonesty and disloyalty and are believed to inherit these traits. For "rule"-followers like Alicent it's particularly egregious (not to mention she's very religious too and adultery is a sin), especially when any claims made in her son's name and in the name of the truth could threaten their lives.

I think Alicent is mad because Rhaenyra thinks she can do whatever she wants without any consequences. And she's not entirely wrong. Rhaenyra does come across as terribly entitled. And despite the fact that Aegon seems completely unfitting to be king Rhaenyra is indeed stealing his birthright. He is the one who should be named heir after her, but of course, this would never happen. Having bastards it's one thing but trying to put them in the succession line before true-born sons is completely different. Moreover, the fact that Otto lost his job for doing nothing wrong fuels Alicent's rage cause she realises that in the end, it's "them" against her family. Regardless of personal preferences and whether you like a character or not, I get Alicents perspective. There's something deeply disturbing in the fact that the law applies to everyone but a "chosen" one and the fact that speaking the truth is suddenly a punishable did.

Imagine he was the highborn destined to take the throne and she was some septa who was sworn to celibacy but a moment of weakness or falling in love broke all that, only for the guy to dump her and say ''yeah, I just wanted you for a fling, now run along while I marry this highborn woman who is more suited to me and my station because I'm to ascend the throne''.

Giving her enough character development that would explain why she’d kill her child, instead of trying for c-section, even if it only gave 1% chance. 1% is better than zero. Any woman would give that chance to their child. Second, is Alicent’s character is the most frustratingly written after time jump, as if writers are bipolar. It doesn’t bother me fully until later. Which you have already seen. So, episode 9, becomes a diff person. I hate those 2 episodes. Ps the tongue thing is a remix from the book. That was actually 5 of Corlys nephews.

This episode is when I lose almost all of my respect for rhaenyra. She had a duty to have children with her husband yet she chose to indulge other men to get pleasure. I understand that was their arrangement but as a leader future Queen you have to strengthen the your claim. It was already going to be hard for her to become Queen because she’s a woman and now she’s recklessly given the people even more reason to not make her queen by having bastard heirs. She’s just making it harder for the people to accept her as Queen. And on top of that her choosing sex with other men not only puts her life in danger but the children she chose to have on top of whoever fathered the children. It was a selfish decision on her part. I wouldn’t want someone to be queen who isn’t willing to sacrifice their own joy and pleasure for the greater good. And alicent knows rhaenyra hasn’t been doing her duties and acting like someone worthy of being heir to the iron throne and she doesn’t even try to hide it which would make anyone annoyed and upset especially someone like alicent who always does her duty and does with us asked of her no matter what while rhaenyra does the opposite. Alicent married an old guy and gave him children because her father told her to. rhaenyra couldn’t even commit to only having children with her man. This is when I turned on rhaenyra. She can go live her life sure go ahead but being ruler you have to make sacrifices she wasn’t willing to make. She wants the position but doesn’t carry herself like someone with the title should.

You probably haven't watched the series, because in episode 7, Rhaenyra herself says that they can't conceive a child, is it her fault that he can't do it? They tried many times. She must have some children to strengthen her right to the throne. Since she cannot conceive a child with Laenor under any circumstances, she must have at least someone to strengthen her position. She had to pass off the bastards as real children . I want to note that Laenor recognizes all children as his own, and he will never change his mind. It's not her fault that she's in this situation. Alicent poisoned the minds of all her children, making Rhaenyra an enemy for them. Rhaenyra never even wanted to consider the murder of Alicent's children, but she has paranoia and envy. The whole situation would have been solved if Viserys had married Daemon and Rhaenyra. So yes, of course you can have your own opinion, but to assume that Rhaenyra doesnt want to fulfill her duty is to look at the situation one-sidedly, just like Alicent

It's on Viserys for not being smart enough to see the ploy, for not choosing his duty to the realm, for betrothing Rhaenyra to Laenor instead of Daemon or even Harwin. It's on Daemon for being a sneaky idiot and trying to ruin Rhaenyra's reputation instead of really trying to make Viserys see the pros of marrying him to Rhaenyra.

yes because rooting for usupers and a future rap*st is so much better than a woman which the only she did was fucked with another man because her husband was gay 😍

@@filmsbylis only usurper is Rhaynera. Aegon remembered as legitimate and true King,your precious Rhaynera as pretender,usurper,”half-year queen” and “Maegor with teats” and my favorite “whore of dragonstone”. Small folk hated her.She,Daemon and her allies nothing more then killers and traitors. Her stupid ambitions started this war,Aegon should have been named heir the day he was born.
