Alicent finally appears and immediately notices the scar on Rhaenyra’s arm. I heard that from my mom through much of my freshman year in high school.Įlsewhere, Rhaenyra and Daemon are still waiting for someone to acknowledge their presence. “You are no son of mine,” Alicent declares. “What’s today,” he asks, genuinely confused, and his comment earns a slap. “How can you do this on a day like today,” she asks. “It was just a bit of harmless fun,” he says regarding the Dyana incident. The much older chap stumbles out of his bed, unsure why his mother is so mad. We cut to Alicent screaming at Aegon to wake up. I mean, that’s better than the alternative, right? Unfortunately, others in the kingdom may not.Īt first, I’m thinking Dyana is about to get tossed out a window, but the Queen instead hands her a sack of coins for her troubles, forces her to drink some of that “cleansing” tea and then sends the young girl away. She goes through the motions, and tells the girl it wasn’t her fault and that she believes her story. Alicent has clearly dealt with this problem before. Dyana reveals that Prince Aegon was, well, not kind to her while she was cleaning his room. Daemon obliges and hands his brother a nearby cup, then sniffs the contents and casts Rhaenyra a curious look …Īlicent the Cold stands over a weeping girl named Dyana, who trembles at her sight. Rhaenyra introduces Aegon and Viserys - two new babies - to her father. “Eh, we need you to speak up for Lucerys to take up Driftmark as Corlys’ successor … please,” Daemon says. “Talk to Alicent and Otto about all that shit now.” He just wants sleep. Meanwhile, Rhaenyra heads to her father’s chambers, and oh my God how is this man still alive? Like, what’s the point - just die already and make the pain go away! Anyway, Daemon informs his bro that the Triarchy is resurgent, and a petition has been brought forth to determine who will take over Driftmark now that Corlys is dead/dying/missing. She’s clearly not the kind-hearted woman we met years ago her happy demeanor was replaced by a coldness that’s hard to describe. Speaking of which, Alicent presides over the High Council, looking all Princess Leia-like. Rhaenyra and Daemon receive a rather cold welcome and note the, um, darker makeover Alicent has given the locale. Daemon enters with the letter that once again calls into question Rhaenyra’s sons’ claim to the throne. We get a peek at a much older Joffrey as well. Outside, he receives an urgent message.Įlsewhere on the local, a very pregnant Rhaenyra walks in on Jacaerys studying High Valyrian. He happens upon some loose mud and pries out a dragon egg - three in fact. We jump over to Dragonstone and see Daemon doing some spelunking. “It’s the Queen.” He also notes that Corlys’ ambitions have brought nothing but trouble for the Sea Snakes. “Well, he’s not sitting on the throne these days, is he,” Vaemond replies.
