That was one of the best single episodes of tv I’ve ever seen. Holy shite. The dragon fights were amazing.

One weak point - the shot of Rhaenys falling to her death looks pretty bad.

It was a pretty bad shot, and the cringy arms out shite, but it didn’t ruin anything for me

I couldn’t believe they got Rooks Rest in tonight. I was convinced it was going to drag this season and it would be used as a season finale cliffhanger.

I can’t wait to see how twisted and fricked up they make Aegon look.

Because the writing was fricking stupid and you could see it coming from a mile away.

It's one thing to be outraged about Ned Stark's execution or the red wedding. Those were rational in the setting. You were angry and shocked. You were angry and shocked at believable characters and scenarios.

That's much different than being pissed off at shitty writers.

Yeah, kind of cringy but a minor complaint of mine too

IIRC in the books she is ambushed by both of them at the same time and can’t get away.

So her flying away like that and deciding to turn around was all show. It was a “Oh Rhaeneys is a bad arse who should have been queen!” moments that was added in for no reason.

Show watcher only fans make me cringe with shite like that. Like bro, that dragon was alive before the conquest and helped Aegon the Conqueror and Balerion take over Westeros.

I’m fine with her going back, she’s loyal to Rhaenyra and was asked to protect Rooks Rest. It was likely Vhagar would be there before she went and she was fine with it.

On that final pass she was headed back out to sea. Vhagar just ambushed her on the other side of that keep.

Yeah Vhagar is a sneaky bitch for how big she is.

It was a nice touch showing Vhagar as a sleepy old dragon who was just like “whatever just wake me when you need me to kill something”

do we think there is any chance Daemon survives the gods eye and somehow makes off to live his own life away from this shite? The books say his body was never found.


Sorry for losing the plot somehow but can anyone cliff note this for me? I was clearly reeled into all the action and missed the significance here. Is gods eye that psychedelic brew ol girl served him in the kitchen? Im a little lost on the significance of that
