Sir Eryk committed suicide because he couldn't deal with the guilt of killing his twin brother. Rip to a truly honorable knight

Watch closely, it’s Sir Arryk that won, so not only the shame of being a kinslayer but now faced with the prospect of finishing his quest and murdering the queen (the once princess he had been sworn to protect) it was all too much and he made the honorable choice.

The fact that Otto was SOOOO mad at Aegon that he admitted to usurping the throne sent me. I’m an unwavering supporter of Team Black, but this episode made me feel for the CHILDREN of Team Green. They have no support system. Helaena has never wanted to be touched by Alicent. Aegon was never prepared for what they thrusted upon him and his own mother lacks the ability to comfort him (seen when she literally walks away to play hide the candlestick with Criston Cole instead of staying with him) Aemond takes comfort in a Lady of the Night and treats her as a mother figure. The difference between last episode with Rhaenyra comforting Jace and this episode with Alicent and her children couldn’t be starker.

I have no doubt that Aemond was seeking maternal, rather than sexual, comfort with the brothel madam. It was a very well done scene. We've never seen Aemond emotionally naked (not to mention physically naked) and voicing uncertainty. I am convinced that he sought that comfort from the madam because he feels guilty for having killed Luke and he needs his mother, they've always been close, but she was furious with him for killing the boy. And now the war is escalating; Aemond is smart enough to be aware of his own responsibility, and he needs his mother, but she's withdrawn her support from him. No wonder he goes to an unusual sort of substitute.

There was no point in raising Aegon as heir because Viserys already chose his heir, but had he spent more time with them he could have instilled loyalty to their family and to their older sister Rhaenyra. Rhaenyra also messed up by not being closer to her half siblings. But Viserys was also too indecisive and had he been firmer no one would dare question his chosen heir

Daemon is on his way to secure the river lands like he's been trying to do since 1 x 10. They argued, but he's still about securing her crown.

I think Aegon didn't really know what to say to his wife, Helaena. I don't think he blames her but they just don't communicate. Even at their best, we see they just stay out of each other's way and now in grief, it's even worse.

Nah, all Rhaenyra had to do was ask him about what she told Erryk to do with Mysaria an hour ago. Arryk didn't recognize Mysaria, but Mysaria definitely knew there were twin brothers, one serving each side. She saw one with Otto last season when Otto was buying information. As for trust, Erryk killed his own brother to protect Rhaenyra. I'd say that makes him pretty trustworthy, considering that he had already been accepted for bringing the crown and pledging his loyalty previously. It was totally grief why he committed suicide.

Great reaction guys!😃👊🏼

I can't feel sorry for Aegon at all, i do feel sorry for Helaena and her children though... the true innocents in this situation. Let's not forget that Aegon has illegitimate children whom he doesn't care about, left to fend for themselves in those fighting pits (Season 1), he's a hard R word who attacks innocent women, and now although he lost a son it seems like he cares more about what it did to his status and how people see him, than truly being sorry his son is dead. Notice how a lot of the things he says are narcissistic and making things about himself, even when talking about his own child... "murderer threatened THEIR KING", "laughing at ME", "how dare they attack ME", "I will not be seen as weak", "MY son is MY legacy", etc and not grief for his son, nor does he have any concern for his wife. He doesn't comfort Halaena, or really talk to her. It's all "me, me, me". Basically Aegon seems like he's going to be a narcissistic tyrant, and Sir Simpsalot is just going to enable him. He already kills innocent people (there was what, 10 dead, 1 actually guilty? Idk if there were more we couldn't see) for "attacking" him, because they hurt his pride, what will he do next?

That was so horrific how they sowed the little boy's head back on like Frankenstein.

IMO, Daemon told Rhaenys 'A Son For A Son" in the very beginning when he wanted her to ride out again with him to kill Ameond and Vhagar. Then Blood told Cheese "He said a Son For A Son" Blood didn't hear him say that to Rhaenys so he had to have repeated that to Blood. Whether Daemon did it while walking in with Blood alone to Cheese or once Cheese asked the question. But I think it was the response to Cheese's question because Blood said it to Cheese as if you heard what he said and not like I am telling you something you never heard before. Daemon is crazy guilty. The other way to know this is because he was completely silent sitting at that table in the war room. When has Daemon ever been quiet in that room at that table?

For Aegon to be this upset about the death of his son is understandable, but where was this energy for the illegitimate children he fathered? That were having their teeth sharpened and made to fight last season. I think he’s more upset about it being his heir more than his son. It never showed him as a doting father until he became the king. All of this is a reflection of Alicent and her lack of embrace for any of her children.
