Daemon's answer to the "What do we do if we can't find him?" was "A son for a son" like the killers said

After the Blood and Cheese incident, rat catchers were banned in the Red Keep. That's why Arya had so many cats to catch when training with Syrio Forel, her dancing master.

That was the skull of Meraxes, the dragon ridden by the Conqueror's sister wife Rhaenys, who was killed in Dorne. Visenya rode Vhagar. Balerion's skull is in the Red Keep.

The simplest way to break down Aegon is that he wants people to like him, he feels he’s never had that before in his life, not from his father or his mother or his grandpa

the way the ratcatcher knew helaena wasn’t lying was because he knows a liar when he sees one “everyone in kings landing are liars”

The dragon Rhaeneras son was riding was a hatchling of Rhaeneras dragon Syrax, not sure if the dragons care about each other or only their rider but if they do than thats 2 mothers mourning their dead son. Syrax might be feeling double the pain, hers and Rhaeneras 😞

Technically Alicent is only the “queen dowager” now and Aegon outranks her.

"Any time I see a bird, it's bad." I think you mean, "Dark wings, dark words."

I can’t wait for yall to catch up the this recent episode 🤯😱

Little Jahaerys actually did have a dragon called Shrykos.

I've been following many reaction channels for years. Especially for these shows. Y'all are in the top three channels that I'm excited to watch for this show. You're so damn entertaining! Also, I loved see Cregan Stark carrying Ice. It's good to see Ned's sword again.

With the whole Daemon and his instructions to Blood and Cheese, he told Cheese (the Rat catcher) to kill Aemond and describes Aemond and then Cheese asks Daemon what if they don’t find Aemond and Daemon looks up at him and gives him a smirk and then it cuts away, so it wasn’t a look of annoyance and a look that says, did you not hear the instructions I just gave you, you will kill Aemond, kind of look, it was a Daemon smirk which implies a not so pleasant plan b. We don’t hear him say what plan b was but this is to not give a spoiler to the audience but later when Blood (the gold cloak) enters the room when Cheese has a knife to Helena, he said “A son for a son, he said” and so revealing to the audience what Daemon’s reply was to Cheese’s question about what they should do if they can’t find Aemond, so them killing Jaehaerys was plan b, they carried out Daemon’s orders albeit plan B not plan A because they didn’t find Aemond

The opening scene with Daemon and Rhaenys really hits hard after EP 4. This show is all about the choices we make and their consequences.. or the choices we DONT make...

Technically Alicent is single now, so she's not really breaking any vows with Cole. Cole is the one who is doubling down on his depravity because he is still a gold cloak.

Damnnnn! You guys are putting in the work and pumping these out! Thanks guys!

can't believe you guys are already up to here! love how much you love the universe

@17:55 Mrs October said that Rhaenyra lost so much this week. Ma'am it felt like years to me. ahahahahahaha. 😄😄😄😄

Remember that Aegon wasn’t trained by Viserys to take his place as Rhaenyra was. It’s no wonder he makes for an awful king.

Matthew Needham who plays Larys talked about the feet scene and he explained pretty good. Needham continued: "It's such a power move. It's a way of reasserting control, putting someone in a box. It's a display of dominance, really making someone feel as ashamed of that part of her body as he does of his. It's associating her feet with something traumatic, which is what he does."

Little sad they skiped most story between Jacaerys and Cregan Stark, thei went hunt together and became good friends and swore that first-borne son of Jacaerys will marry first born daughter of Cregan.

To be fair Alicent isn’t THE queen and Aegon is the king so he definitely doesn’t need to call her your grace, whereas Rhaenyra is the queen to her son As far as the rat catcher misinterpreting… he couldn’t find Aemond and was at the very least told a son for a son he could have took it upon himself to come back with the head of a son to still get the other half of the money

When the Starks theme started playing at the beginning of the episode, it got me so emotional a little tear came out. When Winterfell appeared, I lost it completely.

For centuries, dogs have been used to catch rats. That's why they are called "rat terriers".

That is a tapestry being made in the opening.😊

damn you can just watch s2 like its nothing right after 1x10 we had to wait so long

Daemon is shit enough to topple anything bad the Greens have done. And Rhaenyra has been disregarding her responsibilities since day one, hiding in Dragonstone, abandoned Viserys who named her hair and screwing everyone in the process. She's a mess, so is Daemon. The realm has been good thanks to the Greens and Otto not Daemon or Rhaenyra.

Niceeee my favourite reactors right now

They had one shot to make a kill, if Aemond wasnt in the castle (because how would they know if he was even there) they had to have a backup plan. Daemon never said "a son for a son" in the conversation we saw, so clearly he told them that after they asked if Aemond was not there.

"A son, for a son," Daemon earlier said

Tapestry is what your looking for as the thing in the opening

Targaryen - a family name their superior race is called Valyrians. the very first thing in the intro you see isn't "blood and burning castles" but the Doom of the Old Valyria.

agon spends more time on street and in brothel's then in castle ,so he prob does sympathises with them in his weird ass way

Daemon got the murder hoody on somebody gonna die

You guys have been pumping out videos love it. ❤

Helena was scared of the rats because the rat catcher was involved in murdering her son and she had a dragon dream about it and knew it was gonna happen she just didn't know when

While you guys are shock and sad on this episode, we are crying right now and grieving right now also.

40:48 - I think most mothers in this situation would start screaming for help and try to fight them. Yes, she is most likely to end up dead, but by raising alarm she no longer leaves them time to kill the children - not unless they want to die to.

Aemond has that "im Batman" jaw

As for Aegon, This far I do not think its a rebellion thing. He is not exactly rebellious. He looks more like a kid who did not really know his place in the world and had major insecurities. He quite likely got really unbalanced by the entire situation of being a much younger brother to a powerful sister who never showed him any love. His father was likely too old and too far away to connect with him at any meaningful level. And from his point of view, he was just watching his much older sister being cool and being next to daddy king. At the same time, he had very young mother telling him he should be king. When that translates going against his own father and sister. What might have happened is that he did not feel at home with his family and he absolutely did not feel worthy of being king. Deep down he feels like big sister should be the next boss. So...as a 2nd son (his point of view) he wanted to be cool with someone. Therefore he goes more towards common folk where he does not have all that intrigue. Once he becomes king there is a shift. Because he likes it. He likes being cool. And him wanting to say yes to everyone I think its just him wanting to be cool and loved. Deep down he is not dumb. So he can see that his mother and father want to use him for their own family scheemes. So he is just out there looking for love. Trying that the people will genuinely like him. He is at the end more like Tommen in GoT than Joffrey. He is still just a big kid without a particularly strong personality. Where his brother has a much stronger personality. Aegon is just...whatever. Given the choice he always sounded honest not wanting power. He just wants to have fun, live his life, be cool. Of course, now things might change because the death of his own son might be too personal for him. We will see.

Ser criston cole was basically aemond and aegon's father figure growing up. He trained them and was their body guard all their lives.

i think it's VERY tragic that the only time we see someone actually paying attention to and understanding helaena is a guy who's about to kill her son.

The only thing that throws me off is that Allicent's children all have white hair while Reyneras' children by some one not Targaryen all have black hair 🤔

Alicent is a lot of things, but too old to get pregnant isn’t one of them 😂😂😂😂 She’s about 35 😂😂😂😂

I watched the clip of Rhaenys with her dragon busting from the floor. Theres no evidence anyone died. I dont think people died. Maybe broken legs.

Vhagar is a female dragon.

The sound of them sawing his head off😢😢😢

October fam we here 🔥🔥🔥

37:40 “maybe he didn’t want it the dog to know” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 u guys

Rheanyras kid call her your grace because the king(ruler) is called your grace that’s why they call aegon your grace and that’s why everyone who called themself kings in GoT where addressed as your grace

I wish you guys would have seen it from the start to come back to that ending after like a year year and a half they ended it perfect

Daemon reminds me of mark antony, so much

When she finds the dragon wing and found the cloth of his son. Her dragon allso found her son. The egg was her dragons so two mothers 😢

The thing is Rhaenyra did not sanction a hit on a child She would never cross that line this was Daemon's doing.

Poor Helaena. She's the only decent person in that castle, and this happens to her. 😞

I wish I could pull off that lip color Brooke! It looks so good on you!

I need to find a man who looks at me the way Tony looks at Brooke

Good ‘Morrow Octobers

lets go brother and sister.

I always eat apple with knife lol :D

BOWS ON THE TOES

DICHOTOMY damn Mr. October using some BIG WORDS

How's bran looking "🌚🌝"

Hypocrite alicent&crispin creme

After this episode I joined Team Beige.

Ser Criston Carpetmuncher! 😉

10:52 alicent Is no longer married she screwed the old king with no joy in it for decades and gave him kids born from him and she’s not having Cole’s babies. Still team alicent not a fan of coke or pretty much anyone else on the green side maybe aemond but It’s still not the same as having bastards and outwardly flaunting the fact you break the rules and customs as the black queen has done and did continuously

Team black ❤

Buenas Tardes The Octobers, If you want to see the video version of the books, Maglor, with the complete History of Sangre y Queso, Cronicas de Poniente is in Spanish but there are subtitles, You may have noticed that the lore changes a little with the words between Cregan and Jacaherys ♥❄&🔥´♬ ... 🖤🔥&🩸

That Blood and Cheese scene is far worse in the book. I won't say how, in case you decide to read the book yourself one day.

NNOOO!!!!! you can't react to s2 because I HAVEN'T SEEN IT YET!!!!!!😫

aegon desperately wants to be liked

Howdy!!!

The ending is a bit different than in the book. There is a second, younger son and she has to chose between the two of them. She chooses the younger to be killed but instead they kill the older one who we see die here. But it's an ok change because I'd rather them not show the fate of the son who lived.

I buy my girl cute socks because I don't especially like toes. If I liked toes, I'd buy her sandals.

Aegon only cares about himself and you guys need to listen to more

Just a thought, but maybe Alyn shaves off his white hair to attract less attention as a Velarion (Targaryan?) bastard?

Criston Cole only has tried to serve well, stop acting like his so bad, The guy came from nothing and got screwed. Not when you have Daemon bashing his own wife's head with a rock and sending criminals to backstab people.

I think Larys may be a skinchanger who can change into rats and spy.

I want more Starks. The best family in all the seven kingdoms. Alicent and Cole are hypocrites…that was always my issue with them.

Sansas music??? Oh hellnawwww. That's winterfells music

You should not side with a team. Hbo will make you pay. ts a trap.

Greens have class, the Blacks are crass.

The first episode is why I don't choose any side, both teams will do horrible things. In the words of Shireen Baratheon I choose not to choose any team. Also, I like characters from both sides 😊

The Larys feet stuff isn't in the books. It's just the show runner doing some foot slander. Nothing wrong with liking feet, they just wanted to make Larys "weird" in their eyes.

That thang don't eat itself. Somebody got to. Thems the rules.

My guy Mr.October I got love for you but blood and cheese is on Daemon not all of team black. Rhanyra Corlys Rhanys none of them signed off on that shit.

I was waiting for this episode and it disappointed greatly. Flat, boring and the main parts - stupid. I don't now what's more unrealistic: How the royal family lives with ZERO guards, no servants near by during civil war. Helena had to run through half the castle to find another person. Or the way Helena reacted to her son getting his head hacked off. I thought they would torture her to make her comply; they just asked and she just answered which kid to kill. She didn't try screaming, begging, trying to stretch time in hopes of rescue or attacking them. That whole scene made no sense. Also, it was too simple in how Daemon found 2 men willing to risk death by torture for some gold and who were willing to kill a child. Writers blew it.

Your lipstick was too damn bright this episode, so distracting 🤣

choosing Team Green or Team Black isn't the right choice IMO - we should be choosing the women (Rhaenera/Alicent/Rhaenys) instead of the men (Otto/Daemon/Aegon/Aemond)
