Wouldn’t he be a lot older? The last known time they were together was years and years ago. I guess it’s possible he snuck around off screen.

I think the prince that was promised is believed to be formed from a union between a Targ and someone descended rom the first men, like a HIghtower. The other heirs don't have this quality, only Vis and Alicent's kids.

As I understand it.

The prince that was promised was not specific to a house. Aegon believed a Targaryen would be this person but the prophecy itself is originated in Essos long before the Targs came to power.

Though the first time it was said in canon was in Danny's dream when Rhaegar said his and Ellia's son (jon even though we don't know it) was the prince that was promised.

The after-show clears this up and says he thought he was talking to Rhaenyra and finishing that conversation from earlier with Daemon.

So no, that was not meant for Alicent and her children. It was meant for Rhaenyra and hers.

Also, Paddy Considine has acted his arse off in this. Really hope he gets some awards love for it.

There are several versions, but the one Rhaegar was concerned with is the one I mentioned. Some believe it's why he married Lyanna. He wanted a son from a union between his family and one descended from the first men.

Also, props to the actor playing Corlys’ brother as well.

I know folks have complained about the lack of comedic relief but Daemon had me cackling multiple times in this episode with some of his actions/expressions.

Belle, who was the lady in the cloak towards the end and who was she talking to (re: busy night at King’s Landing)?

Also, poor Dyana. I was really worried it wasn’t moon tea and it was something that would kill her. But now I’m wondering what became of her.

I don’t know her name but she’s the young girl that was Alicent’s right hand. The one that brought in the tea for the girl Aegon II raped that Alicent was “dealing” with.

She was talking to Daemon’s old whore, Mysaria, that he was with when he was in King’s Landing originally.
