Rhaegar* and Daenerys^

also "i think the rest of the show is going to last a week and be really stretched out", lol. oh, the precious dears.

@@ashleyl3699 yeeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhh...about that...😬

Cheering? It almost blew out my speakers, lol!

Hate that catelyn stark didnt found out

@@animeloverz67 Ned couldn't risk her blurting it out, it would have meant Jon's death. I feel sorry for both Ned and Catelyn, but I think Ned was right.

That video is good, but there's better ones out there, like Alt Shift X's video on it. Only problem is spoilers because he goes really deep into the histories and there might be some minor spoilers for both HotD as well as the last few GoT seasons.

Yaaas ❤

@@MFBlooshThat’s a good post series video. R+L=J is spoiler free and would be a good video to these adorable people react to.

@@domenicgalata1470 I love that channel so much and I'm a little biased towards it just because of how well he explains everything and how thorough those videos are. He can turn a skeptic into a believer with certain theories lol. He also helps people who might not understand certain aspects of the story to have a better grasp on everything. They're so detailed. The R+L=J video that all the reactors watch is great too, though.

Both are good, but the one with all the clips and music is so emotional and satisfying, so that one first!

best reaction to that scene I've ever seen

Epic!!!

Best. Reactions. EVER!!!

For sure!! Can’t wait

The show made Maester Aemon the Mad King’s uncle. So he’s Rhaegar and Daenerys’ great uncle and Jon’s great great uncle.

Best episode

Please don't. Don't let an unofficial GoT video take anything away from what may or may not be confirmed in the series anyway. There is literally no point in watching these videos beforehand, other than to spoil you for what may or may not be coming.

@@M._R. I guess that’s true. I personally saw it after everything so it didn’t make a difference but I can see how it could.

The books end with the murder of Jon in season 5. Everything after season five is based on outlines Martin gave them and their own interpretations.

Friday!

@@ReactionSquad thx

"Legally" he doesn't have any claim to the throne as an "unclaimed bastard." (Not that that means much in Westeros, since what is legal is very subjective.) But technically, the Baratheon brothers had a better claim as legitimate Targ descendents through their grandmother than Jon has as an illegitimate son. Unless someone - usually has to be a ruling monarch - officially legitimizes him. Then he can enter the line of succession and would have a strong claim - even with Robert's right of conquest because Jon now would probably be Robert's closest living male relative (unless someone legitimizes Gendry. But you would still run into the issues that Jon was born to 2 parents of nobility and Gendry's mother was...not. Jon was educated with a Lord's family. And Gendry was...not. While that matters less in today's world, it would likely matter to these classist lords. Especially since, unlike Jon, Gendry doesn't seem to have natural leadership skills that classist people with power would recognize and support.) That said, if anyone gathers enough support from enough powerful lords with powerful armies, they can toss the line of succession out the window and stick anyone on the throne. Or, like has happened in the past, the most powerful lords of Westeros can have a council to decide who they're going to put on the Throne. And Jon's parentage _could_ be brought either as an argument in favor of or against him. Like with anything, it depends on persuading enough people to support or oppose him.

@@jcompton8507 He does have a claim to the throne, from the show canon, we all watch the show and we all know how it ends, and we know everything that’s happened, but without spoiling it for some people that haven’t seen it if we’re talking TV cannon. Because Westeros has made it very clear they no longer want any more Targaryen‘s at this point they don’t want any more dragons, so he’s the only one that has a claim to the throne even though Daenerys has one by of her father, it is heavily rejected due to her being the daughter of a king who drove the kingdom into war and due to her gender. The whole kingdom knows who Jon Snow is, and since many in the realm, believe that he is to be the bastard son of Ned Stark they would pretty much rather take him as king. If we are talking book lore, then it should be Young Griff, and not Jon Snow.

It should be obvious to anybody who's been paying attention to the show since the beginning. I've seen reactors who don't pay close attention and think Ned was hooking up with his sister. I find that annoying because it's obvious those people can't retain information. These guys have been paying attention and figured it out without the other guy having to tell them first

I think the friend off camera actually did a great job keeping things spoiler free! They kind of spell it out by Lyanna begging Ned not to tell Robert because he’d kill her baby if he knew and that confirms that it’s not Robert’s and now we know it’s not Ned’s either so that just leaves one person. I think the reactors didn’t need help understanding that, they got there on their own.

It wasn't really a spoiler. They figured out on their own that Jon is a Targ. They just couldn't remember the details about who "kidnapped and raped" Lyanna.
