    Song of Ice and Fire is a prophecy that Prince Aegon would save man from darkness. Hence why everyone named their heirs Aegon hoping their son would be the chosen one. Jon Snow (Aegon VI) fulfilled the prophecy by being the Prince that was promised.

Like if he said something along those lines and Alicent told Rhaenyra that I genuinely think she would have backed down with the promise that none of her other children would end up dead like Luc 😭💔All this is to say that this episode just reinforced my hatred for Alicent and the entirety of team green 👏

    Another really good episode… It was super satisfying that Alicent basically admitted that she believed Rhaenyra and had confused her son with Aegon the conqueror. I think Rhaenyra is going to fight 10x harder now that there is no doubt in her mind that Viserys wanted her to reign. I’m definitely Team Black, but I can’t help but hold a special place for Alicent and her “WTH” looks on her face (like confusion meets shock meets disgust) when she and Rhaenyra are talking… Also I have to give it to Aegon (the actor). He is doing soooo good in this role. The scene where he’s barking at Aemond in the brothel/place; idk how he held it together and made it believable to his character, but he did and it was pretty phenomenal acting.

    I honestly do love how Rhaenyra gets a brutal reality check regarding Aegon II's accidental succession. It really doesn't matter what Viserys meant anymore- people are already dying, and children have been killed. It is far too late to back down from "a simple misunderstanding." It doesn't change how Rhaenyra *did* authorize a hit on Aemond in Daemon's presence, and it doesn't change the fact that Aemond let Vaeghar eat Lucerys. The "truth" changes nothing.

    It was Alicent that got the reality check! She set all this nonsense in motion over the fact that she misunderstood what Vicerys said with his dying breath. All because the root cause was her jealousy of Rhaenyra. And her jealousy and insecurities lead the foundation to people dying. She saw what everyone saw Vicerys defending his daughter’s right to rule. She was desperate to misunderstand the situation.

    Corlys didn’t consider Rhaena as his heir not because of her gender, but because she’s the progeny of his youngest kid instead of of his oldest kid. Ignoring gender, succession is supposed to go through the line of whoever’s oldest. Had Rhaena been Laenor’s daughter and not Laena’s, she probably would’ve been named heir since we know he has no problem with the rule of women.

    I was expecting to see Daemons mother aswell. It could have possibly made the scene even deeper and stronger. Of course, seeing Rhaenyra makes sense in my mind, the audience will recognize her younger version and what significance it plays is good as it is. But imagine seeing his mother and Rhaenyra in that scene. I think both could have deep meaning for Daemon, who long for love, warmth and trust but his ever wild temperement, of envy and pride, cause a rift between him and those around him. His mother could have been reminder of the family. Of the innocent lives he has caused harm to. Rhaenyra gave him a second chance to be alive, a second chance to prove himself right and dutyful to the family, after the loss of Laena. I think seeing his mother would have taken away the impact Rhaenyra the young had, the innocent soul he did not meant to cause harm yet contributed to. Just some quick thoughts. But yea, if the show writers wanted they could have shown his mother/alter the scene to include her. But I think it was a good scene nonetheless.

Even allicent knowing this puts her in danger. Imagine if Larys strong found out. Like allicent said, as horrible as it is, it is way too late. Let’s not forget that the small council was already planning to put aegon on the throne regardless of what the king said. Allicent’s confusion only put the icing on the cake for them. So it would’ve happened this way anyway.

    The biggest question I had about season 2 was if Rhaenyra would ever find out what Viserys told Alicent on his deathbed and if not then it would be a huge missed opportunity the writers would've left on the table to add to Rhaenyra's motivation as a character and adds more depth to what really drives her--knowing that as an audience (besides being usurped of course) now just makes Rhaenyra's actions and decisions that much more important and has a higher impact to the story now, and I'm so glad they let us know now that she found out. She ain't f*cking around anymore its go time, and the story needed that to make Rhaenyra go from passive and inaction on war to declaring war. Can't wait for episode 4

Rhaenyra realised her father still meant for her to be queen and has gotten rid of any kind of doubt she ever had before and that final look on her showed she is now ready to fight. The look of Alicent realising she heard what she wanted to on her husbands death and that her son really is a usurper she helped to dethrone his sister. Her control over him is slipping away and any chance of stopping the war cannot happen. Brilliant and has me excited for next monday.

It's like the kingdom favors any convincing male succession story over the rulings that the kings set in the first place.

    I find it unbelievable how there are so, so many little details, and Easter Eggs. Like I fancy myself pretty aware, well read on the story, and I missed so much that I seen in this. Blackwood slain by his own sword, I didn't catch that little detail. Good job on this. Well done.
