into our coverage of House of The Dragon

4:10

season one episode nine, The

4:12

Green Council. Man,

4:16

this

4:16

episode was crazy. Wow.

4:19

Wow. Wow.

4:22

Really? I mean, just I

4:24

guess, on the

4:25

Internet, you know, it may not be as universally

4:27

loved as, you know, the previous few

4:29

episodes. But to me, this was

4:32

this was

4:32

right in there with with the rest of the season.

4:34

I know it was just just, I

4:37

mean, nonstop plots and

4:39

schemes, schemes and plots, as Terry

4:41

had said, schemes and plots are the same thing.

4:46

I mean, just

4:47

like, I've always sort of wondered,

4:49

like,

4:49

we saw a little bit with with Jeffrey and

4:52

Cersei, but not the behind

4:54

the scenes workings of the council.

4:56

And, you know, we find out that, you know,

4:58

there's been this plot all along. But

5:01

just to see, okay, the king dies,

5:04

what's the next step? Okay? And

5:06

that's where the episode starts. And,

5:08

okay, after that, you know, then,

5:10

you know, after Talya finds out, Allison

5:13

finds out, then she goes straight to auto,

5:15

and then they convened a small council.

5:17

And then the small council decides to do x

5:19

y and z, and just says,

5:21

like, that day. This basically covers one

5:23

day and then the very next morning, because she says,

5:25

Tom and not Tom. Hey, God.

5:27

We'll be Aecon will be crowd, you know,

5:29

tomorrow I don't. And and

5:32

they do that and that's the end of the episode. So

5:35

it's basically just this day that

5:37

they that the series, you know, that we wake up the next

5:39

morning and the series has died. And then

5:42

everything that happens that day

5:44

to put a gun on the throne. It's pretty,

5:46

you know I mean, very, you know, it's

5:48

all in Kingsland. Do we go anywhere else?

5:50

No. It seems like we have an even little spy

5:52

shot at drift marker. Dragonstone. Yeah.

5:55

It makes sense. And you won't see any

5:57

Danira, any Damon and Raynira this

5:59

episode because all this takes place before

6:01

they even find out they've locked down

6:03

the servants so that no word

6:05

escapes except for

6:07

Talia's little -- Yeah. -- signal

6:10

flare that she sends with the candles in the

6:12

window. And so

6:14

it's all locked down. All this takes place

6:16

before Damon

6:19

and Reneera find out. So the next episode will

6:21

get their reaction. and see what happens.

6:23

I like I like that. They did it this way because

6:25

it's like it's happening in secret. So it's all it

6:27

it's like its own little bubble episode where

6:30

all the plotting and scheming is occurring, and

6:32

then we'll be, like, back to normal next week,

6:34

I'll get a bet. Exactly. But, like

6:36

like, Otto says in

6:38

the council meeting time is of the essence.

6:40

Mhmm. So she understands this, you know, in

6:42

season one after Robert dies. She

6:45

knows that Ned Stark is is moving to

6:47

oppose her. And, of course, Renly and

6:49

Stannis, you know, or they they

6:51

have different plans. And

6:52

and

6:54

she so she moves quickly to,

6:56

you know, have Ned arrested,

6:59

install Joffrey on the throne, and

7:01

you can't waste time when you're usurping.

7:04

That's always going to find out. Yeah.

7:06

Again, the thrones, the hot date definitely

7:09

pretty crazy. pretty crazy.

7:11

So the episode starts picking up right where

7:13

we left off. It's still dark in the castle

7:15

and eerie eerie shots

7:17

looking down empty hallways and halls

7:19

and and we get a little blonde boy

7:22

walking through the halls. Right?

7:24

We're a little black boots, little

7:26

little other blue little little

7:28

little leather boots and

7:33

this this kind of confused me. because

7:35

it seems like he's just some regular old servant

7:37

boy or something, but it it look he

7:39

looks Targaryen. So I thought that it was

7:41

Yeah. I thought it was Aegon and Helena's

7:44

son. And then when we get

7:46

to a couple of scenes later when they're like, where's

7:48

Aegon? Where's Aegon? I thought that it was theirs,

7:50

like, a son named Aegon of

7:52

theirs. that, like, ran off in the

7:54

middle of the night or some of that. Yeah. Like, so I

7:56

think I think there I think Aegon and Helena's

7:58

twins are -- Yeah. -- Jared Harris and

8:00

Jaredara, a boy and a girl.

8:02

Yeah. Sounds right. So I was thinking

8:04

that it was little baby Darren

8:06

who is Alison's fourth

8:08

child. that we haven't seen yet. But

8:10

he's supposed to be an old town, you

8:12

know, as a war. So Right.

8:14

Right. Right. I think he is just a little

8:16

serving boy But he's

8:18

has blonde hair, and I guess they just

8:20

do that in there to throw

8:22

us off. Yeah. I

8:23

got it. All he does is

8:25

in combination with Tanya. Right? yeah, he

8:27

comes out of, I guess, he comes out of the king's room

8:30

and or maybe some

8:32

other he's not doesn't like a secret passage that

8:34

he comes out of. It just looks like a normal

8:36

door. he goes down to the kitchens, finds

8:38

Talia and tells her who, you know, goes straight

8:40

to Allison. Yep.

8:42

Yeah. That was pretty crazy. I

8:44

think it's just a little serving boy

8:46

or a little spy, you know,

8:48

child spy or

8:49

both. And

8:50

just happens to be blonde.

8:52

So -- Yeah. -- we're we're less confused

8:55

in the moment. Yeah. So

8:57

Alicent is upset.

8:59

She's beside herself and

9:02

she's on the verge of

9:04

tears and bad as she learns the

9:06

the the viseris' fate and

9:08

she tells Talia to stay there.

9:10

First, help her get dressed. Don't tell

9:12

nobody. And so she

9:14

gets dressed in leaves and this is when

9:16

Talia lights the candles in a

9:18

triangular and a pure middle shape in the

9:20

window. And this must be a

9:22

signal to the white worm and her

9:24

crew kinda like in in

9:27

the lord of the rings, how they have the signal fires

9:29

on top of the mountains, and some somebody's

9:31

just on duty watching all the time.

9:33

They know that miss Harris' death

9:35

is imminent. So they've got Asari

9:37

has got somebody keeping an eye

9:39

out, you know, for this particular

9:42

the candle

9:43

pattern in a in this window.

9:45

and word makes way

9:48

back to Missaria as

9:50

we see later. So but

9:52

for now, Alison arrives

9:55

at this at

9:57

Otto's chambers to inform him,

9:59

and he's asking who already

10:01

knows because this is, like, of the

10:03

utmost important, with the plots that are gonna

10:05

be ensuing, it's critical

10:07

that they compartmentalize this information

10:10

and prevent word from getting out until

10:13

things have settled, and they've succeeded

10:15

with their goal here. Exactly.

10:18

This you know, Al we

10:20

come in and we're look I think we

10:22

look at auto for a minute. He's just kinda

10:24

standing there. collecting his thoughts, but

10:26

his first words are who knows?

10:28

Who knows? So he

10:30

he knows that the control

10:32

of the flow of information is

10:34

of the utmost importance. Definitely.

10:38

And this is when Alison tells

10:40

him, I saw him last night

10:42

before he trails off. He

10:44

told me he wished for Aegon to

10:46

be king, and he looks at her like,

10:48

what? Like, or you can't be seen as

10:50

like auto auto literally said

10:53

something in his chair. And it was like,

10:55

what what? What? What? What? What?

10:57

Because I'd like to Charles, the gift

10:59

of the guy saying, Oh, really?

11:02

You know? So go to the

11:04

YouTube video. If you wanna see me

11:06

impersonate that gift, video is better.

11:08

Audio podcast are video is bad.

11:10

Yeah. But he just like he does this

11:12

like he can't believe like,

11:14

they they got this plan anyway, and they were gonna

11:16

move with this plan whether Allison

11:19

got this, you know, word on word

11:21

from on high, you know, vis a vis vis

11:23

vis a vis vis about who need who should

11:25

be the air. But And it seems

11:27

Regardless of Allison's complaisance

11:30

complaisance complacency. So what would've happened? She

11:32

would've been locked in her room just like

11:34

Raynie said, you know? Probably.

11:36

Yeah. Sorry. Go ahead. Give me a minute, bro. If Allison,

11:38

you know, is as pure as the wind driven

11:40

snow as you like to think. Wow.

11:42

because I know the same thing

11:44

is if if she never got

11:46

if if the Sarah's never had that conversation

11:49

with her I mean, I

11:51

I guess, as much as I I just

11:53

like Allison, guess, she would have

11:55

continued to go forward with supporting

11:57

Reneera as aero. Yeah.

11:58

It seems

11:59

like The service hadn't accidentally

12:02

told her, you know, the Prince that was promised. It must

12:04

be you. Yeah. It must be you. And it's only out of

12:06

her love for Viceris that she

12:08

feels now duty bound carry

12:10

out his wishes, his final death

12:12

wishes. I

12:14

really don't get to install. Right.

12:17

mean,

12:17

she does get to install her own son on

12:20

the throne, but I don't think she

12:22

was done. Obviously, she's taken unawarers

12:24

as to the Lannister I wrote all the

12:26

names down. Skimming.

12:30

Skimming plotters. The plotting schemers.

12:32

Dirkling plots.

12:34

Anyway, I mean, it's Ironrod, Lannister,

12:37

Auto,

12:39

for a while, the Maesters in on

12:41

it. Is he? He he doesn't

12:43

seem I mean, he's surprised. He's doing a lot

12:45

when he yeah. He seems reticent or

12:47

hesitant, though, as well. But

12:49

I mean So, basically, the maesters are like,

12:52

they don't have a political affiliation

12:55

necessarily. They're basically sworn

12:57

to give the best advice they can

12:59

to whatever lord or house

13:01

they're assigned to.

13:02

So, I mean, it

13:04

seems weird if somebody's gonna go to war

13:06

with Old Town. you know, be be it

13:08

with us or go to war with the high towers

13:10

and, you know, basically, thus old the

13:12

whole city of Old Town because the

13:14

church is there and citadel is dead. The

13:16

citadel of the maesters is there. Right. So he's

13:18

just kinda, like, grouped in with the He's trying to

13:20

get Bisbury to, like, okay,

13:22

dude. Just just accept it. that

13:25

this is what's happening? Could have just

13:27

been out of self preservation, though, because

13:29

he recognized the danger. So

13:31

Allison tells

13:33

Otto that oh, he we had this conversation, and

13:36

I was the only witness. And, like, this Otto

13:38

was like, you know,

13:39

he must be picking, oh, a gift from the

13:42

gods. Like,

13:42

this is fantastic, but

13:45

because it gives our schemes

13:47

legitimacy. Yeah.

13:50

So, of

13:50

course, unlike

13:51

I think Otto sort of believes

13:54

Allison, but

13:55

then he's like, this is too good to be true.

13:57

She's just saying this to install

13:59

Aegon.

14:00

Even though we know she's not,

14:02

she

14:02

really did have this conversation with Acerus,

14:05

but Otto must be thinking, this is

14:07

too good to be true. It's her own little

14:09

scheme. Right. She's doing it to

14:11

give the scheme legitimacy. It turns

14:13

out there was already a scheme. It was

14:15

really cool the plots within plots.

14:17

Yeah. Really cool. So

14:19

they convene the small council.

14:21

And before they place the

14:23

stones, they have a little conversation.

14:26

Tyler and Lannister is like, what kind of,

14:28

you know, what what's so urgent to couldn't wait

14:30

until I finished my beauty

14:32

rest? Uh-huh. You know, but he's all

14:34

propped up with his bling and

14:36

everything. He's like, huge

14:38

neck is mister t, apparently.

14:41

Yeah. He should be He walked in.

14:42

He walked in and did not read the

14:45

room. Yeah. didn't even bother to

14:47

look at the expressions on their faces.

14:49

Yeah. Was Dawn Invaded. In

14:52

Otto, the king is dead.

14:54

He calls him the heiress

14:56

the peaceful, which is a cool

14:58

name. We had Jaharist the

15:00

conciliator, egg on the

15:02

conqueror, We have

15:04

Maygore the accrual prior to this,

15:06

and now we have viseris,

15:08

the peaceful, our

15:10

sovereign, our friend, as he refers

15:12

to empathetically, or I

15:14

don't know if that's the right word for that. But but

15:17

he informs everybody and he's left us

15:19

a gift. With his

15:21

last breath, he impressed upon the queen his

15:23

final wish that his son, Aegon

15:25

should succeed him as Lord of the

15:27

Seven kingdoms. and thunderously rolls.

15:30

Mhmm. And who

15:32

is it that that oh, it's

15:34

Thailand who responds that

15:36

we could proceed with the full assurance of

15:38

his blessing on our long laid plans and

15:40

Alison kinda perks up like what?

15:43

Long laid plans. Yeah.

15:45

This

15:45

is I can't remember from the books.

15:48

If

15:48

if like, I know they

15:50

have a small council meeting, but I don't know if

15:52

there's mention of, like, a preset

15:55

plot, like plan, like

15:57

when the queen died recently in

15:59

Scotland, I guess there's some code named

16:02

plan of what to do if she

16:04

dies in Scotland versus England.

16:06

And, you know, there you know, there's

16:08

different procedures and protocols to go

16:10

through. But it's pretty

16:12

pretty cool to see that they there's

16:14

this preset plan that they had already worked out,

16:16

you know, a long time ago. Yeah.

16:18

Pretty crazy. In

16:20

my

16:20

mind, basically,

16:23

Thailand

16:23

Lannister has become Jason Lannister.

16:25

Yeah. Like and

16:27

we first meet Thailand and he's trying

16:29

to brief Vasaris in

16:31

episode two about stepstones

16:33

and stepstones and stepstones and Desiras is

16:35

like, where's Raynira? Where's Raynira? Hey,

16:37

do you know where near it? Raynira is

16:39

at? and Thailand is like dutifully trying

16:42

to report on the step salts. But now

16:44

Thailand has basically become

16:46

the Jason Lannister that we meet

16:48

at the Royal Hunt. He really

16:51

presumes and he's pop us and he

16:53

presumes to know, you know, what the

16:55

succession will be and he's trying to

16:57

get right near his, you know, hand in marriage and all

16:59

that. So, like, in my mind, I just sort of

17:01

fused the two. And then I was like, oh,

17:03

yeah. This is Thailand Lannister. The the

17:05

second son maybe the third side, I guess,

17:07

second or, you know, further down the

17:09

line. There's magnitude.

17:12

Right? So Unless there's

17:14

triplets, he's gonna yeah. It

17:16

can be the youngest of three. Right?

17:18

So

17:18

He's

17:19

probably, like, since he's in on this plot and everything, he probably,

17:21

you know, before he was like, oh, I'm a

17:23

second son. I'm like, I got a cool job

17:25

and everything, but you know,

17:27

my brother's son-in-law and Yeah. He's,

17:29

like, the lord of casterly rock. Yeah. Now

17:32

he's scheming and he's, like, making a

17:34

big moves and having a big influence

17:36

and he's, like, building up his ego

17:38

in the process, you know. Yeah. And like you

17:40

said, his his what's

17:42

it called? Swag? Oh, yeah. His

17:44

his bling and his bling.

17:46

His bling. he's blinged

17:48

out to to show everybody

17:50

how important he is. Every time I come

17:52

around to finish my train,

17:55

So, yeah, he he just,

17:57

like, spits out the

17:59

the plot.

18:00

Like, oh, so we can proceed with the

18:03

full assurance. of our long

18:05

laid plans. Yeah. Like, outing to them. Exactly.

18:07

We get this quick glance of Allison's

18:10

like,

18:10

wait, what? Before she can even say

18:13

anything, I was like, oh, yes. There's much to be

18:15

done as we previously discussed. Two

18:17

captains and citywipes that were

18:19

loyal today, men, they need to

18:21

be replaced. And he he tells Lord

18:23

Lannister to do that. And Lannister,

18:26

who master's

18:27

called treasury Well,

18:29

he's master of ships -- Oh. -- for now. Right. Right. Right. And

18:31

Bs Berry, but I think he's about to take over a

18:33

master of coin. But anyway, he

18:35

says the treasury is well in hand, global

18:37

this divided for safe keeping. Actually, I do

18:40

remember something about the gold

18:41

in the

18:42

books. Something happens with some of it

18:44

or all of that. I can't remember. But, like, I

18:46

think what he's saying is they're divvying it up, sending

18:48

it to different locations just

18:50

so that all their eggs

18:52

aren't in one basket, you know, So taking

18:54

the lit the the the Targaryen

18:57

soldiers, eliminating anybody who may

18:59

be, you know, free

19:01

thinking or

19:02

loyal to the blacks.

19:05

And they're taking to Targaryen

19:07

gold and splitting it up for

19:09

safekeeping. That's insane,

19:12

dude. Yeah. It sounds like they've

19:14

been purging the TARS Targ

19:16

loyalists from the forces for a while now.

19:18

Probably, yes, there's only two captains left

19:20

that loyal to -- Yeah. --

19:22

Damon. So,

19:23

Tyler talks about the gold.

19:26

And, Otto, just stay keep on, like,

19:28

running down the list of things gotta

19:30

do. Let Raven's be sent to our allies in

19:32

River Run and High Garden. So I started

19:33

kinda making a list of -- Nice. --

19:36

who's who's who's Greens,

19:38

who's blacks, I need to, like I

19:40

just wrote it in my in my notes, but I need to, like,

19:42

make a official, you know,

19:44

chart of side right side.

19:46

greens, blacks. So it sounds like the

19:49

Tullies of River Run and the not

19:51

the high gardeners. The

19:53

the Corey Eugene Kuhn, who's the

19:55

last high garden of high guard anyway,

19:57

I can't say. The last high gartner of high

19:59

gartner. Yeah. Makes me think

20:01

of a house to rail or Tyrell. How do

20:03

you say it? I say Tyrel, but it could be

20:05

Tyrel. Yeah. Tyrels

20:08

of high gardens seem to be Team

20:11

Green. They're sending Ravenswoods

20:13

to them. And then here,

20:15

Allison finally cuts in. It's

20:17

like, hold on just a minute. You need to tell me

20:19

that members of this small council have been

20:21

secretly planning to install my

20:23

son Without me? And

20:25

I think it was iron rod. Yeah. Yeah. You

20:27

know, without her, without her knowledge or consent.

20:29

Like, it's her son. It's like it's her, you

20:31

know, flesh and blood. shouldn't she be

20:34

consulted? This type of situation

20:36

is crazy. Absolutely. And this sort

20:38

of affirms my speculation or

20:40

my my what I noticed that

20:43

she and her father don't haven't been on the same

20:46

page, basically. Leading

20:48

up to this, you could tell that

20:50

her father was scheming and she was, like, caught in

20:53

between the two. It didn't seem like they were

20:55

necessarily fully allied. And this

20:57

proves it that she's not even in on the plans

20:59

and the plotting. And so that

21:01

was pretty quite the revelation, and this

21:03

scene is so tense, dude. You could cut the tension

21:06

with you don't even need

21:08

Valyrian deal that cut attention. You could use a modern knife, you know.

21:10

I think it's Ironrod who says,

21:12

oh my queen, there was no need to

21:14

solely you with darkening schemes.

21:17

Yeah. Darkening. Cool. Which made me

21:19

think of darkwing duck

21:21

and Do you also really think

21:24

duck? Yeah. well, that cartoon as a

21:26

kid. And also, maybe think of the

21:28

darklands, you know, of Dustin Dale that we were

21:30

just talking about. That's maybe two

21:32

weeks ago. darkening schemes.

21:34

And then here

21:35

we get the man of the hour,

21:37

the hero,

21:38

Simon Biesberry. He

21:41

stands up. I will not have this. I

21:44

mean, he's so I

21:46

mean, there's nothing he can do. Literally,

21:48

he's outnumbered. Well, like, six

21:50

to one or seven to one? Yeah. He's in big trouble.

21:52

And speaking of Darkwing Duck when there's trouble

21:54

you call DW. Right? Yeah.

21:57

you know, say for, you

21:59

know, Harold Westerling, you know, Chris sorta

22:02

seems to be of the same the same sentiment. But

22:05

Do love that. to to to

22:07

hear you're plotting to replace the king's

22:10

chosen heir with an imposter. I

22:12

was like, he stood up. I was like, yes.

22:14

He's an imposter Let's

22:16

go, Biesberry. And I'm like, oh god,

22:18

Biesberry's fucked. He's

22:20

in trouble. He's surrounded by a

22:22

dead of wiper's here. Oh, yeah.

22:24

Exactly. Super. This is a viper seat. What's the

22:26

movie where they fall into the snakes? One

22:29

of the Indiana

22:31

Jones movies think there's one point

22:33

two. A whole I mean, there's

22:35

snakes everywhere. Raiders of the

22:37

lost arc. Right? They enter the sounds

22:39

right. They go climb down the thing in

22:41

the map room and then something happens in their

22:43

snakes. I don't know. I don't know.

22:45

But that's he's buried in this moment. He

22:47

is surrounded by the snakes

22:49

of the high towers. And did you see all? So I'm sick of all

22:51

these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plain.

22:54

This motherfucking council So

22:57

he called Biesberry had called Aegon

22:59

in a poster, and Thailand says, well,

23:01

the first born son of Azeris is hardly

23:03

in a poster.

23:04

and

23:05

Biesberry, you know, up the the oath, you know, that

23:07

they swore all these Lord's

23:10

a nice, you know, sworefield to tune, to

23:13

princess Rayonera. and

23:15

Tyler tries to just, you know, brush

23:17

it away, oh, twenty years ago, most of them

23:19

are dead. I think in the books, Tyler

23:22

even says,

23:22

the I scored no

23:24

such oath. You know, I was merely a

23:26

boy at that, you know, at that time.

23:28

Oh, interesting. You know, bringing up

23:30

his own personal and saying, you know,

23:32

My dad or

23:33

whoever was uncle, whoever was Lord of

23:36

Castaway right back then, they may have sworn

23:38

something. Me.

23:38

Not me. That is I didn't

23:40

my problem. Not my chin. Not my problem. That's

23:43

what I say. Exactly.

23:46

You know, he says twenty years ago, most of them are

23:48

now dead.

23:50

So then I'll iron Jasper Wild,

23:52

says, you

23:54

know, you heard the hand. You know, our

23:57

plot you know, notwithstanding, the king changed

23:59

his mind. Yeah.

24:00

Pilot or no. Yeah.

24:02

Here at Bsbury, you know, he just doubles

24:04

down. Like, sort of like, last week.

24:06

He's like, no. I don't care what

24:08

you say. I'm, you know, I'm seventy six years

24:10

old, which is really old for this, you know.

24:12

You're too old. history I mean,

24:14

if we say that this is, you know, equivalent to

24:17

real medieval times. Like, average

24:19

age was, like, forty or forty

24:21

five maybe. Maybe sixty was like

24:23

a really long life. This guy's seventy

24:25

six. And which he is and he's lived

24:27

a close life

24:28

of you know, lord of

24:30

whatever the beasties berries are lord of

24:33

and, you know, master of coin for many

24:35

years now. You know, I heard something about that

24:37

recently that

24:39

The average

24:39

lifespan is seems it's shorter in

24:41

a number like that when you do an average, but that

24:44

they counted, like, childhood

24:47

deaths because it was very common to

24:49

infants to die and that, like, brings down the

24:51

average a lot more than it would be. So it wouldn't be as

24:53

low as they say, but it wouldn't be as

24:55

high as Quite

24:56

as high as random stays.

24:58

Yeah. Yeah.

24:59

House

24:59

Bsbury of Honey Holt, a minor

25:02

house from the REIT Bs

25:04

and Honey. That's hilarious. And

25:06

he's like, I will not believe that he said

25:08

this on his deathbed alone with only the

25:10

it kind of pauses. The boy's

25:13

mother as a witness. And it's

25:15

like, yeah, she's the queen, but

25:17

categorizing her here as the boy's

25:19

mother emphasizes her personal stake

25:21

in the situation and how she may be liable

25:23

to manipulate. It

25:25

definitely does. And

25:25

but it also he doesn't call her

25:28

queen because her

25:30

powers as queen were derived

25:32

from being married to viserus

25:34

as king. Now, viserus is dead. So

25:36

I guess she would be our UK

25:38

listeners. region. Correct. Our our

25:40

queen

25:40

well, region means like she's ruling, you

25:42

know, instead of

25:45

the child. Like, there was a baratheon some some

25:47

baratheons, you know, back in

25:49

history that

25:50

were queen regent

25:52

and hand

25:54

who

25:54

was acting as

25:56

a region also or something like that.

25:58

But so I think Queen Region is when

25:59

there's a kid that's king that hasn't come of

26:02

age yet. Like, Dowards her

26:04

queen. Now that now that her husband is dead, I

26:06

think that might be it. So,

26:08

anyway,

26:08

he doesn't call her

26:09

anything. He just calls her. the

26:12

boy's mother as the only

26:14

witness. So that was pretty nice kind of a

26:16

little bit of a little keysing --

26:18

Yeah. -- when Alison

26:21

This is seizure. It is

26:24

theft. It is treason. A

26:26

t word. He

26:28

is said it. And that's I mean, that's like Damon, you

26:30

know, finally saying last week, our children

26:32

are both dots. And she's a horror.

26:34

It was like, alright. That's it.

26:37

That's the end of the line She looks at

26:39

horror and horny. Yes. She says, you know,

26:41

she's under sixth kid at this playwright.

26:44

Oh, Does

26:47

he say, at least, it is he

26:49

was about to say something else.

26:51

Oh,

26:51

yeah. Before

26:52

he's cut off by somebody,

26:56

or the maid grand master or what? I think it's just

26:58

mind your tongue, Lineman. And

27:00

right at this moment, sir Kristen slinks

27:03

over behind Besbury. And I was like,

27:05

oh, god. He's moving into the kill

27:07

position. Yep. The team

27:09

was well all last night by

27:11

all accounts. because he'd had the dinner and was,

27:13

you know, the first part of the dinner, he stood

27:15

up and gave a, you know, rousing speech

27:17

about, you know, making peace with

27:19

with the family and everything. So

27:21

these various ANA He was well last night

27:23

by old accounts, which if you can

27:25

swear that he died by his own accord,

27:29

Oh, which of us are you

27:31

accusing of? Regicide Lord

27:33

Biesbury. Oh, man.

27:35

It's you know, whether it was one of

27:37

you, or all of you, I care not.

27:39

And that's

27:39

like So he's literally he

27:42

doesn't care if it's one of them or all of them.

27:44

Somebody here has killed the king and

27:46

his my or at least potentially.

27:48

So

27:48

he's just throwing down the gauntlet.

27:51

Yeah. I will have no part.

27:54

and then boom. So Chris says

27:56

sit down. Was it Kristen? I think it's Kristen.

27:58

He like, he shoves him and says sit

28:00

down at the same time and

28:02

I think, like, he may have just I think

28:05

he was really just trying to get him to sit

28:07

down, you know. And and but he like,

28:09

oh, fell and boom. Yeah.

28:11

One time the first time I thought it was, like, his I think his hands were

28:13

in his shoulders, and he was just trying to get to sit

28:15

down. Yeah. But then somehow,

28:17

Cole's hand also smacked his

28:20

head into the ball. I was like,

28:22

well, that was overkill. Brained

28:26

by a StoneSphere. That's

28:29

amazing. Kristen called Brains

28:31

Biesberry here in in the show, but in

28:33

the books, a mushroom to his tail

28:35

is that Cole tosses

28:37

Biesberry out of a window and the red key

28:39

to his tail. Dude, pretty

28:42

crazy. That would have been cool. I think there's a couple

28:44

theories of in according to the

28:46

Maester that wrote the book --

28:48

Yeah. -- according to mushroom,

28:50

he gets defenestrated, tossed out

28:52

the window. And according to another source,

28:54

he gets his throat slit. So I

28:56

like how history is kind of

28:58

unclear about the things that happen. Like,

29:00

from the layman's perspective,

29:02

you know, it it would seem that

29:04

Allison was spearheading this whole operation,

29:06

but in in the in this show, it's clear

29:08

that she was kind of a pawn. And,

29:11

you know, do you know if you have you have to be

29:13

really on the inside of everything to know

29:15

that wasn't wasn't involved to the extent that she is,

29:17

you know. Definitely. I didn't think

29:19

you know, we they kept in the beginning of the first

29:21

couple episodes, they kept focusing on those little spheres

29:24

of the small else. Well, and what's the deal

29:26

with this? What are we gonna do? And they

29:28

roll this one, and we do get a cool shot almost

29:30

like a pool or billiards

29:32

table. They roll Lannister his

29:35

ball kinda down the length of the day. missed it and

29:37

continued. Yeah. Yeah. At the at the very beginning of

29:39

the scene, at the of the small

29:41

council scene, the camera is, like, sitting on

29:43

the table and the the

29:45

little master

29:46

of ships, you know, his ball. He

29:48

rolls down toward him and he grabs it he takes

29:51

puts it in his little

29:52

disc or whatever. And

29:53

I think that's right as he says, oh,

29:56

what couldn't wait an I was been

29:58

sleeping or clever. And since

30:00

it's just coughing. Yeah. It was

30:02

interesting because auto went over a

30:04

couple things before placing

30:06

the ball into the into

30:08

the holder. You know? Like, he detailed yeah.

30:10

King was dead, and they talked to

30:12

his holder in his hand. Boom. He

30:14

puts it in. Yeah.

30:15

He yeah. The hand was kinda rolled, fidgeting with his when

30:17

he said the king is dead. Mhmm. And then

30:19

it was a few more lines back and forth with

30:21

him in Lannister. before

30:24

he came over and set his ball

30:26

into his disc and

30:28

sat down. So so on Lyman's

30:31

last words were, ah.

30:33

And immediately upon this, sir

30:36

Harold, unshedhes his and

30:38

starts calmly walking around the table

30:41

towards sir Kristen. And I was like, oh

30:43

my god, dude. Sir Harold

30:45

does not having it. He the whole time he's been

30:47

kinda looking around the room, like, what the hell is

30:49

going on here? This is

30:51

crazy. And he's well, he's

30:53

in a dangerous situation. I

30:55

kept yelling, Get out of there, Harold. Get out of

30:58

Run. Yeah. Flying you

31:00

fool. Flying you fool. Tired

31:02

of long waits and rushed care

32:02

and he tells Kristen, you know, Alison to

32:04

kind of like so Kristen, you know,

32:06

like she reacts and holler her sort of

32:08

to him murdering Biesbury

32:12

And

32:12

Harold is

32:13

telling me, throw down your sword and

32:15

remove your cloaks or Christian,

32:17

like, you're done. as a kings guard.

32:19

This is at least the second

32:22

straight murder that you've committed

32:24

-- Mhmm. -- and it's not a it's

32:26

not an honorable or or acceptable for

32:28

the kings guard. And,

32:32

dude, he he draws his

32:34

own sword Kristen, you pull

32:36

it out and in one smooth motion

32:38

just right to its

32:40

position. No no wavering or anything. It's

32:42

like he has perfect control over the

32:44

blade and just won't puts it right

32:46

up to point to to

32:48

Harold's neck. And he's like, I will not suffer

32:50

insults to her grace the

32:52

queen. And I thought, for sure, they were about to dual.

32:55

This one is so

32:57

crazy, dude. So yeah. I I couldn't

33:00

remember anything specifically from the books here

33:02

where King's card, you know, came to

33:04

swords, but it it definitely seemed

33:06

like it. Apparently, sir Harold has

33:08

has long dead at this point. in the

33:10

books. Yeah. That's right. I did hear that somewhere

33:12

today or or last night in all shift decks.

33:14

Yeah. I think they mentioned it on all shift

33:16

decks. So But, I

33:16

mean, they they cast Grammy Tavish,

33:19

so, you know, they're giving some more stuff to

33:21

do. No. No. No. No. No. No. It's so good. It's really

33:23

cool. And, you know, I love his character now

33:25

even more. Because remember

33:27

at I mean, one of the very first scenes of

33:29

the show, maybe the very first scenes of

33:31

the movie coming over the clouds and then

33:33

she lands at the Dragon pit, and it's

33:35

him and Raynira, you know, and he's talking about how,

33:37

you know, it's good that she's back and safe.

33:39

Otherwise, they'd have his head or something like that. He

33:41

has a special sort of little bond.

33:44

is

33:44

a lot of history with Rainero.

33:46

Not the

33:47

kind of history of the colon, Rainero.

33:49

That we know of. I mean,

33:51

she does get the horror and irony. So,

33:54

you know, Arnie, you could

33:57

say? And Alison is sorta like,

33:59

she's almost like ringing her old Nick. she's just

34:01

so like, she used to, like, pick at her

34:03

fingernails and she's she's she's, like,

34:05

wants to just calm her lips

34:08

self back into her chair. You know, homer sends them into the boxes of

34:10

ice. She's just like,

34:12

oh. Oh. She's done that a

34:14

couple times

34:16

too when when she found out that --

34:18

Yep. -- Lara's Lara's

34:20

murdered his own family. She did that thing when

34:22

she grabbed it. She's like

34:24

well. Oh, like she realizes that the situation is strangling her.

34:27

And it's like she's like, subconsciously

34:29

does it to herself. It's pretty

34:31

crazy. But she tells or

34:33

Kristen, you know, there was no insult, put

34:35

aside your blade, but she doesn't tell him to

34:37

remove his cloak. So she's effectively

34:40

overruled westerling in this

34:42

moment. Yeah. And he

34:43

immediately puts a sword away. Usually,

34:45

there's, like,

34:46

they still, like, they hold

34:47

it there for a few seconds and,

34:49

like, reluctantly, like, okay. And he put

34:52

a spade. He, like,

34:54

immediately she's you know, she called off her a

34:56

tag dog and

34:56

Like, a dog soldier, just just

34:59

arm lower. westerling still had

35:01

his you know, own him, and then he,

35:03

you know, removed his sword too a

35:05

moment later. Crazy, dude. Somebody says,

35:07

has it come to this? Yeah.

35:09

That was westerling.

35:12

He's like, come to this, looking back and

35:14

forth across the road. I'm like, this is

35:16

madness. This

35:18

is madness. or a

35:20

while, tries to get him to remove

35:22

Biesberry's body, but auto is, like,

35:24

super hardcore. No. The door

35:26

remains shut until we finish

35:28

our business and Reese ifeng's really brings, like, a dark tone for

35:30

this line. Yeah. Absolutely.

35:32

No. The

35:36

door remains shots until we finish our business. An or

35:38

while is kinda looking around, like, oh my god.

35:40

Like, I think I'm over my

35:42

head. Yeah. I'm not gonna speak up like

35:44

Bsbury, dude.

35:46

Yeah. because they'll bring me too

35:48

and leave me sitting here and bleeding out while

35:50

they finish their business. Yeah. I

35:54

think it's Lannister who says, Storm's End is a concern.

35:56

So it's interesting to know that the

35:58

Baratheons are

35:59

morality

35:59

potentially team black or,

36:01

you know, he says, if if

36:03

they get a good marriage proposal,

36:06

maybe

36:06

that could sway them.

36:08

So Maybe

36:09

they're in the way

36:10

and they're you know, nobody knows who

36:12

would who who they would be allied

36:14

with. Yeah. Pretty crazy. And Allison at

36:16

this point is, like, running her hands through

36:18

her hair, like, oh my god. You know, like

36:21

she puts her head forward and she

36:23

looks really overwhelmed.

36:26

But then she immediately changes the subject. What of Reneera?

36:28

Like, this is the major wildcard

36:31

problem here. Wildcard images.

36:34

I see. Is it auto here? This is the former air cannot?

36:37

Yeah. Or is it?

36:39

Yeah. It's a I don't

36:41

remember. The former

36:43

air cannot? Nobody

36:44

wants all of the balls to say that. Yeah. Former

36:47

error cannot, of course,

36:48

be allowed to remain free and

36:50

draw support to our claim. To

36:54

an innocent. Allison gives him the benefit of the doubt and says, oh, oh,

36:56

you you mean to imprison her. And then

36:58

she, you know, she comes to a darker

37:00

realization, you know, in a

37:02

few lines. and Harold was

37:04

looking around like you gotta be kidding me.

37:06

Are we really are you really talking about

37:08

this? Otto says, she and her family will be

37:10

given the opportunity

37:12

to publicly to

37:12

swear a nuisance to to the new king and Allison knows,

37:14

you know, she'll never been the need. And

37:16

neither will Damon.

37:17

You plan to

37:20

kill that. So Adam

37:22

sort of explains his way out of,

37:24

oh, they'll be given a chance to

37:26

to bend

37:27

the knee, but it's like, No.

37:30

You know they're never gonna do that. So and then, you

37:32

know, Allison realizes the end

37:34

goal, the end result, you know. Yeah. And then

37:36

she looks her in the room and says,

37:39

you And all exceed to this.

37:42

Accede. I thought that was a cool word.

37:44

ACCEDE

37:47

Mm-mm. You

37:47

know, like, agree, I

37:50

guess.

37:50

Right. And Harold is

37:53

legit. Like, what fuck at this point.

37:55

Like, he's just horrified by all of this. And

37:58

or while is maybe he isn't on

38:00

it, like you said, because he's

38:02

agreeing with

38:04

with Otto saying your father is correct, your grace.

38:06

A living challenger invites battle

38:10

and bloodshed. Yeah.

38:12

I mean, it does. And he may be thinking

38:14

of as, oh, he's not choosing sides.

38:16

He's just state and facts.

38:18

that

38:18

leaving a challenger alive is is

38:21

an invitation to

38:21

war and bloodshed.

38:24

So it's

38:26

I mean, it is true. I mean, what do you say? He's not telling a no

38:28

nobody's been told, but it

38:31

it seems like he's you

38:33

know,

38:33

if he's not in on it, he's just,

38:35

you know, he's playing the not gonna

38:37

get turned into these very

38:40

cards. Yeah. for sure. For sure. For sure. Yeah.

38:42

Auto says it is

38:44

unsavory. Yes.

38:48

So it's just a tiny bit. It's a tiny bit unsavory. It's just a tiny

38:50

you know, here here we get, you know, the age old

38:52

line, you know, sacrificed a few for

38:54

the good of the many. Right.

38:57

they must make a sacrifice to

39:00

secure Aegon's succession.

39:02

Like, who is it? And some movie

39:04

says, why Oh, is that Thailand? Right? Is it not better to kill a

39:06

dozen people at dinner than

39:08

thousands of their oilfield?

39:09

Yeah. At war. And,

39:12

I mean, I mean,

39:13

has a point, you know, from a pragmatic

39:15

standpoint, but, you know,

39:16

the rules of war and the customs of the

39:18

day as far as, you know,

39:20

dinner guest ride and that sort of thing. It's but,

39:23

you know, it's pretty crazy. And

39:25

there's Damon

39:26

to consider. So slightly,

39:29

So this, like, they're they're thinking of Ramiro and

39:31

her claim, but but also, there's

39:33

this total wild card. Oh,

39:36

wild card.

39:38

Yeah. just wanted this demon to consider. The king

39:40

would at wish for any unsavory. But

39:42

the king would not wish for the murder

39:45

of his daughter. He loved her.

39:47

I will not have you deny

39:50

this. And

39:52

it's it's iron rod. Right? Who's who's a

39:54

stand yet? And she's like, one more word, and

39:56

I'll have you remove from this paper and

39:58

sent to the wall. Man,

40:00

she's had enough for a little iron rod.

40:02

Cool mention of the wall. So I guess they were sending drills there at

40:05

this point still. Yeah. Yeah.

40:07

Oh, yeah. Absolutely. It

40:09

seems like when when Harris

40:11

and Alison visited the wall that

40:13

that's one

40:14

of the things that they said that they're

40:16

they need even more people than the

40:19

ground and the other lords are sending them.

40:21

Right. At first, it was considered like

40:23

an honorable job, right, where they sent good men

40:25

to the wall. And after a while, and people

40:27

were getting about the threat of the White Walkers that sort of

40:29

nobody wanted to go anymore. So they started to

40:32

having to send

40:34

criminals and and people like

40:36

that. Right? I think

40:37

sometimes I remember at the

40:39

beginning

40:39

because the wall pre existed,

40:41

hang on. Yeah. And just gone last

40:44

some time. So,

40:44

yeah, way way way back into to

40:46

the deep history. I can't really remember if

40:48

if the it was more it it

40:50

was thought of as more of an honorable thing or

40:54

a

40:54

second son's. I mean, Bijan, you know, is I mean, he's an

40:57

honorable second son. Yeah. That does. That's a little

40:59

with the starks. Excuses to serve. Yeah.

41:01

The stars too. They

41:03

have, like, this family lineage and duty and

41:05

tradition of of serving him. Yeah.

41:08

To swear abuscence. No, they won't.

41:10

He says, Lord

41:12

commander Westerling, take your knights to Dragonstone, be quick, and

41:14

be clean. In other words, kill him and

41:16

be done with it. So he's not even giving

41:18

him a chance to swear offense.

41:22

Yeah. That was just he was just jumping through that hoop for Allison

41:24

-- Yeah. -- to get to the logical

41:26

conclusion of what must be done.

41:29

you know, for the good of the realm. Yeah. So yeah.

41:31

He so he

41:32

he commands the lord commander

41:35

of the king's guard to go

41:37

and splinter cell De

41:38

Nera in her family. You sneak

41:41

in the castle and Merkham.

41:44

Isolate, simplifying. complete.

41:46

We're on the same page? Affirmative. Markham.

41:49

And just immediately, it's not

41:51

like he sits

41:52

and thinks about it.

41:54

he just he gets that command from Otto, and Srahael

41:56

just reaches back and just rips

41:59

off his white cloak, spolds. Now, you know, when we

42:01

pulled it up, he just rolls it up. sets

42:03

it on the

42:03

table. Yeah. Interesting how you don't how

42:06

it's, like, clipped on or something, Velcro.

42:08

They must have westerosi Velcro because you can

42:10

just kind of pull it

42:12

off and sort of like, you know, we're in a neck real necktie. You know, if you get

42:14

into a sister cuffs, we're in a real

42:16

necktie. Oh, that's about that. That's real

42:18

bad. Real bad. So if you

42:19

are if you're a coupon and somebody

42:22

grab your I say so I would think the same thing. You would want a

42:24

cage, like, for somebody to

42:26

grab you and yank you, you know, in a tactical

42:28

situation. True. Good point. Very

42:30

good point. And he's

42:32

just like, you know,

42:34

rips off the cape like you're saying, I

42:36

am lord commander of the kings guard, and

42:38

I recognize no authority but the kings

42:41

So he's like, if there's no king, I'm

42:43

not listening to any of you, fucks.

42:45

You know? You people are all are insane, and

42:47

I'm getting now out of here, basically.

42:49

It leaves his cape on the

42:51

table and books it. Not I mean, I

42:53

I was saying run run before

42:55

the Kristen comes for you. Yeah.

42:58

Exactly. Because they're and I thought Otto might

43:00

might do something like that because he

43:02

wants to control the flow of information.

43:04

Anybody who leaves the

43:06

room is you know, a a wagging tone.

43:08

Yeah. Potentially. And they just say So no one

43:10

leaves doors. Those doors stay

43:12

closed until we're done. Yet, nobody tries

43:14

to stop Westerling.

43:16

But, I mean, I guess, assuming

43:17

this is the lord commander of the King's Guard

43:19

for us to stop him is we're literally gonna

43:21

have to kill him. So, I guess,

43:23

you know, auto and company, you know, make a

43:25

strategic decision

43:26

in the moment of the site. Okay?

43:28

We're we're gonna do

43:29

more harm than good. if we kill

43:31

here on Wester Lake here. Yeah. All they have is sir Kristen. Right. And

43:33

it I mean, that's A1V1I

43:35

mean, Kristen has the

43:38

age. but where Sterling, you know, has the years of experience, you know, not

43:40

not the combat experience. But I

43:42

mean, so this even then, if

43:46

they face off

43:47

Kristen versus Westerling, you

43:49

know? Fifty fifty split, maybe,

43:50

you know, fifty five forty five. who

43:53

you think, you know, I'm taking betting odds on that

43:56

fight. So Yeah.

43:58

Crazy.

43:58

I'm like, oh my god.

44:00

At this point, I was like, whoa. This

44:02

is getting bonkers. He has

44:05

no play there. He leaves and

44:07

exits. And it's right at this moment that

44:09

a new version of the the song, the light

44:11

of the seven begins to play.

44:14

And at first,

44:16

it's piano.

44:21

It

44:23

is

44:25

our fate, I think, to crave all

44:27

is what is given

44:30

to another. mirroring

44:30

the piano that was playing when Sursi was getting dressed

44:32

and Tom and was getting prepared before

44:35

the sept explodes.

44:51

Alright. I'm

44:54

ready. And

44:56

then later on, and and that this music continues throughout the

44:59

next scene or two. And it starts with

45:01

a piano, and then it starts

45:04

it brings in the strings, the theme of

45:06

that was playing as Alison was walking

45:08

down the aisle at Reneera's wedding.

45:11

inner green dress. And so they're sort

45:14

of at this point

45:16

straight up because they only hinted at the light

45:18

of the seven in that

45:20

original scene as Alison was walking down

45:22

the aisle in the green dress, but now they're straight up using light of

45:26

the seven.

45:30

It is our

45:33

fate, I

45:35

think, to

45:37

pray

45:39

always is given to another. Just in

45:41

a slightly altered form and then they mix

45:44

in Alison's theme and it's like these two are

45:46

the same. So they're really,

45:48

really making Allison,

45:50

like, Cersei, in terms of the

45:52

music. That's what the music is telling us that

45:54

these characters are, like, parallel characters

45:57

Yes. It

45:57

definitely seems like they're playing on that.

45:59

The the chords or the notes

46:02

from the original, light of the

46:04

seven song. Right.

46:05

And then that just the sound of that

46:07

because the piano was not used in Game

46:09

of Thrones until light of

46:11

the seven. It was all strings and horns

46:13

and woodwinds and whatever else there is

46:16

in music.

46:18

Kazoo's Yeah.

46:20

Recorder.

46:22

But piano that was the first time

46:23

when I mean, you already ever used piano in Game

46:25

of Thrones. So

46:28

now we're, you know, the experienced audience. Like,

46:30

we correlate that piano and that sound

46:32

to Lotto. Oh, no. Yeah. Oh,

46:34

no. Oh, no. What's gonna happen?

46:38

yeah, we, like, we've been conditioned, like, Pavan's dogs. This

46:40

includes the P and L. It's like, oh,

46:42

no. to your feet. Yeah.

46:44

Thank you. Thank you, Will Robinson. And

46:48

then They released on water tower music. They

46:50

released two songs that were

46:52

in the show last night. One's called

46:54

Lament and

46:56

one's called state of the

46:57

kingdoms. And they're both they're both pretty

46:59

income on YouTube and, I guess, they're on Spotify,

47:01

but I guess, it's all on Spotify and

47:04

it plays

47:06

songs

47:06

like that song, which is gonna be the whole Game

47:08

of Thrones back catalog of Yeah.

47:10

Yeah. For me, Jawadie's music, on

47:13

Spotify. So if I just go to YouTube and click

47:15

on a specific song and you can

47:17

listen to it. But they've only

47:20

released four songs. did

47:22

hope

47:22

so far from the season.

47:24

Oh, interesting. I think they released one last

47:26

week or two weeks ago. And then two

47:29

from this episode, this episode and then one

47:31

from the first episode. So But it's like I

47:33

think it's a song that was playing during Reneer's,

47:35

you know, coronet in our

47:38

coronation, but her announcement as air at the end of episode

47:40

one. So, yeah, the music was really good. At

47:42

the very beginning, there's a more

47:44

like melancholy

47:46

the tone, you

47:47

know, to the song. piano. Lots of

47:50

piano. To rent in the song. We

47:52

have slide of the seven at that point.

47:54

Same notes. Very, very

47:56

good stuff. Yeah. So then it cuts

47:59

to

47:59

the lane

47:59

Helena's

48:01

chamber chamber

48:02

as the as

48:04

Allison derives. And before that, Helen is sitting

48:07

there with, like, a handmaiden, and

48:09

she's talking. She says

48:12

something that's interesting considering everything that's going on. It is our fate, I

48:14

think, to crave always what is given

48:16

to another. If one possesses a

48:18

thing, the other will take it away.

48:20

And so

48:22

this is Gearing a couple situations. It's

48:24

mirroring the Allison and Rinera

48:26

situation. And it's also mirroring

48:28

the Aymond

48:30

and Aegon situation as we see later on because

48:33

Aegon has given the the

48:35

throne and the the

48:38

airship But Eamon wants it

48:40

and even, you know, for all we know, he's gonna try to

48:42

take it away at some point. And

48:44

it also mirrors the hunt for egon

48:46

situation, Otto wants Aegon and sends Eric and Eric

48:49

to go find him, but

48:51

Alison takes him away. And

48:54

so Alison busts in, and

48:56

she's asking about where egg on is.

48:59

And at this point, I was thinking it was

49:01

the little kid. Like, maybe their kid's

49:03

name was egon. But no, she's

49:05

referring to the Aegon, the

49:07

now full grown,

49:10

man grown. Prince's

49:13

her son, Ellison's son, Eggon. And

49:15

he's not there. He's not in his

49:17

rooms. He got wind of the situation,

49:19

and he dipped fled

49:22

from the from the

49:24

castle off into the

49:26

shadows. And

49:28

we see the the kids, the twins

49:30

at this point, And I heard something about them

49:32

having six fingers and toes, but I did

49:35

notice that one child's hand opened

49:37

and it was five

49:40

fingers. So Oh, nice. We'll see if they, you know,

49:42

incorporate that little book detail

49:44

eventually or whether this was just an

49:46

error or whether they're not gonna bother

49:48

with that.

49:50

And so every

49:53

it's all chaotic and the handmaiden

49:55

leaves and Alison sits down

49:57

next to Helena. and

49:59

she starts talking with her, you

50:02

know, oh,

50:02

I think Elena

50:04

says father.

50:04

Like, she knows what's

50:08

going on. and Alison says your, you know, your

50:10

father and Helena cuts her off, there is a

50:12

beast beneath the boards more

50:14

urgent this

50:16

time. and Alison just like, oh, my dearest love and

50:18

reaches out to comfort her,

50:20

but Helena swipes her hand

50:23

away. Helena's like,

50:26

don't get in my personal bubble. Yeah. Interesting

50:28

interesting stuff. And it's

50:30

at this point where Eamon shows

50:33

up having figured out what's going on to

50:35

some extent and just kind of stands there in

50:37

the doorway,

50:40

ominously. silent all day in line.

50:42

Yeah. And then

50:44

next, it cuts to auto.

50:46

You wanna talk

50:47

about this part? Yeah.

50:49

We we the camera

50:51

is on a sword, and

50:52

we don't know who it is yet. And he's

50:55

looks like he just has a rag. I was a second

50:57

to have a wet stone or something to be kind of filing it or sharpening

50:59

it. But I guess, just wiping wiping the blood off of

51:01

it and really kill. and

51:05

it's sort of Eric with an e. And I'm gonna try to say Eric

51:07

with an e and Eric, almost like the dust

51:09

register. Eric. Eric, KKH

51:14

There's

51:14

Eric and Eric

51:16

who was obviously on duty.

51:18

He

51:18

puts a sword away. Where's the prince?

51:21

And then says that forgive me, Lord and I do not

51:24

know. And then we find out

51:26

that heretic with an e

51:28

is the this

51:29

one protector of Prince

51:31

Eitan. Yeah. So he knows of all

51:33

of his nightly

51:34

deeds

51:37

Right. And and but, you know,

51:39

he's supposed to know where he's at all the time here, but

51:41

at least when he's on duty.

51:44

Right. But you know, he's Eric just, you know, tells the hands straight up, you know, he

51:46

exploits his authority over me and

51:48

then evades me. So he's just tell he's

51:50

just like, I order you

51:52

to turn around and walk

51:54

a thousand paces. It's

51:56

like, you know, the the prince

51:58

is telling

51:59

you to be

52:01

derelict, you know, in your duty. But aside, if you disobey the branch, then,

52:03

you know, he'll probably turn into

52:05

Joffrey, you know, oh, remove his white coke and

52:07

send him to the wall. He won't

52:09

obey the branch. So it's like, man,

52:11

this is a terrible situation to in for a prince that doesn't wanna be

52:14

protected or looked after or or

52:16

have anybody follow on

52:18

him. But everybody

52:20

else is expecting you as the King's Guard and this one projector to

52:22

keep tabs on him twenty

52:24

four seven. So, you know, pretty

52:28

crappy duty

52:28

to be, like, give me viserus. Give me, I'll watch the old

52:30

man, flying in bed, and I'll protect him. He's

52:32

acting anywhere. Yeah. Pretty brutal. Protect him these

52:34

young princelings is, you know, pretty terrible

52:38

duty. Yeah. So he

52:40

instructs him to

52:42

to go and find him, to

52:44

take no one else but his brother

52:47

and to remove their white

52:49

cloaks so nobody knows who they are

52:51

or what they seek, including

52:54

the queen. And that's kind of a telling thing.

52:56

Yeah. This is, like, top

52:57

secret SCI,

53:00

you know,

53:00

Super super secret. Mission

53:04

from the hand, not even a queen

53:06

should know. SCI secure

53:10

compartmentalized information, Is

53:11

that what that means? Yes. Nice.

53:13

Awesome.

53:15

top secret secret. Yes. Something

53:17

in compartment and information, either

53:19

secure or secret. Anyway, how secret? Sensitive compartment

53:21

and information. You got

53:22

a sensitive yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Something

53:24

like that. So so it's like, yeah.

53:26

It's like my lord. I will.

53:30

and dips.

53:31

Bring him

53:32

to me and

53:33

me alone, Sierra. Yeah. Yeah. So don't bring him

53:35

back to the Red Keep and just

53:37

dump him in

53:40

Courtyard. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And don't bring

53:42

him

53:43

straight to the hand. Yeah. Bring him

53:45

straight to

53:45

the hand. Oh, and this they

53:48

start rounding people up.

53:49

Talia, the

53:51

servant girl gets thrown

53:53

into jail. Although, I'm

53:55

guessing the black sales because there's

53:57

torches. There's torches and stuff to

53:58

where they could at least see their

53:59

cellmates. Yeah. They're probably

54:02

not

54:02

the black cells.

54:06

you know, and some kind of holding sales though.

54:08

The I just wrote

54:10

straight to jail, right to jail right

54:13

away. Everybody. Right to jail. Right

54:15

away. Everybody who possibly knows. Round them

54:17

up. Yep. Throw them in the jail. service. They're

54:19

trying to compartmentalize the information as quickly

54:22

as possible. they lock

54:24

rainy's in her chamber. She

54:26

wakes up and she's like, what is the meaning of

54:28

this as she hears her door lock and she's

54:30

trying to open the door And she goes, yeah.

54:32

This is where we see Rainy's too. Okay.

54:34

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And she looks she goes to

54:36

the window and looks out of the

54:38

window and we we see all the

54:40

servants being funneled down towards the holding

54:42

cells. And she's like, what the

54:44

hell? What is going on? Yeah.

54:46

And Lairess is watching

54:48

as usual. And

54:50

then this is when Kristen arrives back to Alison

54:52

and Eamon to give her an update.

54:54

And so this is interesting. He says,

54:56

you know, Prince egggun's not to

54:59

be found within the wall, the Castlewalls your grace. Your father

55:01

has sent sir Eric into the city to find him,

55:03

but how does Christian know this? Otto did

55:05

it in secret and told Eric not

55:07

to let anybody know. you know,

55:09

no one can know who you are or what you see

55:12

concluding the queen, but Kristen knows this

55:14

immediately how. That's right.

55:15

Yeah. That's, you know, tiny

55:17

pothole, I think. unless he's like he

55:19

sees them changing clothes in the King's Guard

55:22

locker room. He's

55:22

like, yeah, I think

55:25

it is. What's up?

55:27

Oh, yeah.

55:27

We're just going to the city. We're just going to

55:29

the city on a super secret mission for the handbag.

55:31

I'm just gonna get some ice

55:34

cream.

55:34

Where are you going? Just leaving.

55:37

But

55:37

where? I have

55:39

to return

55:40

some video games. Yeah.

55:43

That

55:46

could be. maybe just kinda puts two and two

55:48

together? Yeah. May yeah. Maybe just, you know, they

55:49

searched everywhere else and Eric and

55:52

Eric Eric

55:54

and Eric are nowhere to be

55:56

found, so they must be out on the mission. And

55:57

he may think,

55:58

okay, WesternLink's gone,

55:59

presumably, you

56:02

know, not

56:03

in Kingsland anymore, and not in the

56:05

Red Keep anyway. We

56:07

know the

56:08

guy who's

56:10

the guy who announced Daenerys I'm not

56:12

sure. Darklyn? Oh, Steph Steph Steph Stephlyn Darklyn?

56:14

Oh, yes. Stephlyn Darklyn. He's the

56:17

only other known King's Guard. the

56:20

two cargo cargo cargo

56:22

cargo cargo cargo cargo,

56:24

but yeah. Who knows? And that's

56:26

the last name of the twins.

56:28

So we know them too, Westerling, Kristen Cole, and

56:30

Stefan Darkling. And there's two other King's

56:32

Guard nights that are unknown to us

56:35

at this time. Mhmm. But meeting

56:38

compromises that if auto

56:40

were to send somebody on a secret mission, who

56:42

would he send? Probably

56:44

the twins. So maybe not, David. Maybe

56:46

Cole, you know, figured that out

56:47

through deductive reasoning, but -- Yeah. -- that's

56:49

a single smart.

56:51

Any

56:54

answer, Kristen, after all.

56:57

So Interesting interaction

56:59

here between Alice and

57:01

and or Kristen. Yeah. It seemed like

57:03

there's something something more there

57:05

to talk about how

57:06

Eric has the advantage because he knows A gun

57:08

so well. Yep. Being his personal protector.

57:11

Allison kind

57:12

of pulls Kristen close and says, I

57:14

trust you and your loyalty. A gun

57:16

must be found and brought to me.

57:19

So

57:19

auto's got his goons looking for

57:22

him. Allison, you know, now has her

57:24

goons and then

57:26

gets Aymond. So she has two beings out looking for

57:28

him. And the very

57:30

state of the seven kingdoms depends

57:32

on it. because she,

57:34

in her mind, if she can keep Reneer from

57:36

being murdered, she can prevent

57:39

civil war. Yeah.

57:40

Well, so what do you think this is all about? So

57:43

if she gets egg

57:45

on, she can initiate

57:48

more diplomatic resolution

57:50

to the situation where as if

57:52

auto gets egg egg on, he can

57:54

sort of tell him we to order a strike immediately.

57:58

type situation. I think so. So, basically, as he's taking the

58:01

throne, who who is

58:02

whispering in his ear

58:04

beforehand? because

58:06

once he's installed as the king, I mean, they're both gonna have access. The hand is

58:08

gonna be able to whisper his advice to

58:10

him. The queen is gonna

58:13

be able

58:13

to whisper her advice to him. Like, whoever, you

58:16

know, whoever gets to it first gets,

58:18

you know, early word gets to worm.

58:20

Yeah. You know, whoever gets to

58:22

Aegon first kinda gets to potentially direct him on

58:24

the

58:24

path of Kilroy Narra and Damon or

58:26

keep him alive and send him terms to

58:28

come and, you know, swear away some

58:32

some filthy. So Well, sir, Matthew of House rep, our

58:34

friend. Remember, he had a

58:36

different suggestion for what Otto's

58:38

intention may be

58:40

with Aegon Oh, yeah.

58:41

He was thinking that maybe maybe Otto was gonna

58:43

kill Aegon to install

58:46

Amens, so that that would be pretty wild.

58:48

But I mean, it's definitely a

58:50

possibility. Yeah. he knows egg hunt

58:52

is a fucking buckstick. But as it turns out, they're, you know,

58:55

the know Eric and Eric's

58:56

iraq and eric's plans

58:58

get intervened and we never get to see. Because and

59:00

the the the key to that is

59:04

what

59:05

what Eric or Eric tells

59:08

Aegon. Right. The hand will meet

59:09

you outside the

59:12

city walls. Yeah. Well, so there's, like, stuff in

59:14

Yeah. That's exciting. is huge. They

59:16

say city walls. I was thinking castle

59:20

walls That way, he can get

59:22

him back in there secretly and

59:24

not have Allison know that

59:26

Otto has Aegon. Maybe that's what

59:28

he meant, like, the walls from the castle to

59:30

the city. But outside

59:32

the city walls would mean outside of Kings

59:34

Landing down by

59:36

the Blackwater

59:38

i to rush or

59:40

rush or whatever, you know

59:40

Maybe, like, the second pathway

59:42

back into the castle. because that I

59:45

mean, yeah, I don't know.

59:46

But but they said outside the

59:49

city walls. not red castle walls or the

59:51

red keep walls. Yeah.

59:54

Interesting. Maybe

59:55

a script error.

59:56

Maybe. But

59:57

I was like, if auto wanted to kill

59:59

him, he

59:59

would probably have him brought somewhere outside the

1:00:01

city walls.

1:00:04

Yeah. That would make sense. So

1:00:06

it's not call it's not causation,

1:00:08

but it's correlation. I don't know.

1:00:12

For sure.

1:00:12

For sure. You know, who knows? But, you know, at

1:00:14

the end, we see in in the Aegon

1:00:16

being installed on the throne.

1:00:18

Yep.

1:00:19

Allison did it up. But

1:00:21

it's this next line from Allison to

1:00:23

Kristen. That's really interesting. She

1:00:25

says everything you feel

1:00:27

from me, Paul's, as your queen. I was like, whoa,

1:00:29

whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, everything you feel for

1:00:31

me that

1:00:32

she said that the

1:00:34

way she said

1:00:35

it for a reason. Yeah. So

1:00:38

I'm not saying they're definitely, you know, hooking

1:00:40

up, but it seems like she's trying to tap into something

1:00:45

deeper in coal.

1:00:48

to

1:00:48

basically motivate him that

1:00:49

much more to we have to

1:00:51

be successful in his mission. I was

1:00:53

thinking maybe also hinting at some kind

1:00:55

of romantic reward

1:00:58

if he completes it, you know. Everything

1:00:59

you feel from

1:01:00

me, I'll reciprocate if you complete this

1:01:03

mission, you know. So That's

1:01:06

true. Which, you know, we know she reciprocates for Larry's.

1:01:08

So I'll talk about it

1:01:10

a little later. Oh, that's

1:01:13

fine. And we I don't think

1:01:15

we see Eamon as the scene

1:01:18

starts. They're sitting together

1:01:20

like off of the side of

1:01:23

the Roman Allison, it's up to speak

1:01:25

to Kristen. So Eamon's off

1:01:27

in the background, but it's So

1:01:28

he was he was kinda surprised to

1:01:31

me in scene. when he says, I'll come

1:01:33

with you. Say this with the classic. Oh, I'm coming

1:01:35

with. And she tries

1:01:37

to shut him down.

1:01:39

But she says, Cole Cole needs me.

1:01:42

Sir Eric isn't the only one who knows

1:01:44

Aegon's doings.

1:01:46

Yeah. So He's

1:01:47

brought him along on his nights of debodgery. He's actually his

1:01:49

little brother has some

1:01:51

inside scoop on.

1:01:54

Hey,

1:01:54

God. Crazy. So then it cuts

1:01:56

to Aymond and Kristen

1:01:59

searching king's landing. and Aegon

1:02:01

is talking or Eamon is talking about how

1:02:04

Aegon has brought him to the street of silk

1:02:06

and specifically on his thirteenth

1:02:08

name day And here's

1:02:10

a really funny line here about

1:02:12

how it was how it was Aegon's

1:02:14

duty as his older brother, he said, to

1:02:16

ensure that he was as educated as he

1:02:18

was in the arts of the the pleasure, basically.

1:02:20

And he says, at least that's what I understood

1:02:22

him to mean. When in reality, all

1:02:24

he said it was time to get

1:02:26

it wet. Yeah. He

1:02:29

says that. And

1:02:32

then Christian tries to be a holy

1:02:34

thoughts is every woman, the new victim mother, could be spoken up with Trevor.

1:02:36

She's like, we just heard you, you know,

1:02:38

use the c word on Rainera, like,

1:02:40

two episodes ago. Oh, yeah. Two

1:02:44

loud. Exactly. So just like Reneera

1:02:46

had said that Alison is

1:02:48

hiding behind a cloak of righteousness,

1:02:52

So Kristen seems to be hiding behind one as well.

1:02:54

I mean, Kristen and

1:02:57

Eamon have a pretty probably

1:02:59

a pretty deep elating when in reality all

1:03:01

he said it was time to

1:03:03

get it wet. Yeah.

1:03:07

He says that. And then Christian tries to be

1:03:09

a holy god says, every woman knew and killed

1:03:11

the mother to be spoken over forever.

1:03:14

She's like, we just heard you, you use c on

1:03:16

Rainero, like, two episodes ago. So -- Oh,

1:03:18

yeah. -- two out.

1:03:20

Exactly. So

1:03:22

Just like Reneera had said that Alison is hiding

1:03:24

behind a cloak of righteousness. Sir

1:03:27

Kristen seems to be hiding

1:03:29

behind one as well. I

1:03:32

mean, Kristen and Eamon have a pretty probably a pretty deep

1:03:34

relationship. I mean, they're in the yard training

1:03:36

all the time. Yeah. True.

1:03:38

You

1:03:39

would think they have had

1:03:42

some manly, you know,

1:03:43

banter, some locker room

1:03:46

talk that,

1:03:47

obviously,

1:03:48

i'm and knows that Ayman

1:03:50

knows that coal

1:03:50

is not, you know, this holier than thou

1:03:52

King's Guard. I mean, he

1:03:53

does say later you're a good man with

1:03:55

no taste for depravity. but that's

1:03:57

different than not ever even speaking,

1:04:00

you know, crudely about, you know,

1:04:02

women. Right. Yeah. All

1:04:04

the coaches participate to pay in the locker

1:04:06

room talk with the, you

1:04:08

know, with with the players, like --

1:04:10

Yeah. --

1:04:10

bonding with their their

1:04:13

players. for

1:04:13

sure. So they

1:04:16

they go up to the door of the

1:04:18

pleasure house, and sir Kristen is

1:04:20

doing the talking as Raymond is lurking

1:04:22

under his hood. Just like just like

1:04:24

Damon, you know, with the hood, except

1:04:28

less let's hold down

1:04:30

over his face. And Kristen's talking

1:04:32

about how they misplaced their drinking companions

1:04:35

sometime last night, and he's

1:04:37

he's visited this whole house force.

1:04:39

We thought maybe he might be

1:04:41

here. And after she asks for

1:04:43

a description, he says, well, it's delicate, you know,

1:04:45

and whispers were seeking the prince

1:04:48

egg on. And since the discretion is your part of your trade

1:04:50

here, we're hoping you'll be discreet about

1:04:52

this. And she kind of laughs,

1:04:54

tells them that the prince

1:04:56

isn't there, and that it's he

1:04:58

hasn't been there in years, and she glances

1:05:00

knowingly at Eamon at this point, like,

1:05:02

I recognize you. I know who you

1:05:04

are, mister one eye. he was here with you last time. So I

1:05:06

know you guys are telling the truth and that you're

1:05:09

really looking for the prince because that's the

1:05:11

same guy that was here

1:05:13

with him. And So

1:05:15

she says that he doesn't frequent the

1:05:18

street of silk anymore, but his

1:05:20

tastes are known to be less

1:05:22

discriminating. But she she doesn't

1:05:24

tell them what it is

1:05:26

that he does, because Kristen asks,

1:05:28

like, oh, where where might he be

1:05:30

meaning what? Let's discriminating. What does

1:05:32

that mean? And she just wishes him

1:05:34

luck and wishes her best to his friend, Eamon, who's standing

1:05:36

there. And this is a kind of a cool part.

1:05:38

Kristen walks away, leaving Aiman

1:05:42

standing there and she turns and smiles at him

1:05:45

and says, how you've grown.

1:05:47

And there's just a

1:05:49

faintest flicker of a

1:05:52

smile from Eamon. How you've grown?

1:05:56

It's looking

1:05:59

solid, but barely

1:06:02

flicks his the the corner of his

1:06:04

mouth just raises ever so slightly before

1:06:06

returning to its position

1:06:08

of his neutral position and he's

1:06:10

kind of and walks away.

1:06:12

That's like his go to line is

1:06:14

yeah. He must he must be a fan

1:06:16

of the witcher. Yeah. Yeah.

1:06:18

Or of Chuck. John Case is

1:06:21

just granting a nice Also,

1:06:23

yeah, the witcher. He's got

1:06:25

the looks too. Yeah.

1:06:28

Definitely. And we get this cool

1:06:30

shot at the back of the

1:06:32

iron throne. You see several,

1:06:34

like, intact swords with the cross guard and everything --

1:06:36

Yeah. -- just I mean, they're still they're attached

1:06:38

to the throne because, like, they're some of their is

1:06:41

it directional to yeah,

1:06:43

some of them aren't quite, like, melted all

1:06:45

the way. You pressed into the back

1:06:47

of the the chair.

1:06:49

Mhmm. But then can't remember if it zooms up over the throne or kind

1:06:51

of around and over to the side? I

1:06:54

think around to

1:06:55

the side. I think And

1:06:57

we see that we hear Otto say, you

1:06:59

know, that the service had had changed his

1:07:02

mind. He

1:07:02

has a support that the court gathered

1:07:05

you know, all the lords that are already at the

1:07:07

court, at the castle. He's gathered

1:07:09

to the throne room. Yeah. Some people are like,

1:07:11

how did they gather the, you know, lords

1:07:13

and all this stuff you know, from even

1:07:15

the close places like Dustin Dale and Maidenpool and yeah.

1:07:17

There's no time for that. Yeah. There's I

1:07:19

mean, this has

1:07:20

happened. This is probably, like, eight

1:07:23

or nine AM this case is like

1:07:25

a hub of activity where people come from

1:07:27

all around the realm, the sending representatives

1:07:29

from their houses to

1:07:32

try to in force in their political

1:07:34

ambitions and influence the doings of

1:07:36

the king and the and the queen.

1:07:38

So everybody

1:07:40

has, like, an emissary

1:07:42

that's stationed at king's landing effectively.

1:07:44

Yeah. The Aaron Bank of

1:07:46

Bravos, they were probably in and out.

1:07:48

Traders from you know, marine and estipore

1:07:50

and lease and mirror and all these

1:07:52

different places. You know, people constantly

1:07:54

in and

1:07:56

out of the city and of the the royal palace, you

1:07:58

know, wishing to treat, you know, with

1:07:59

the king, you know, or or the hand,

1:08:02

or, you

1:08:04

know, somebody master appointment, master of walls, master of shifts, you know, to talk to

1:08:06

them about business or what have you.

1:08:08

So they just gathered up whoever

1:08:10

was was there in the Red

1:08:12

Keep already. and

1:08:13

basically put them

1:08:14

to the question.

1:08:15

Yeah. So so Cazwell is there. We've seen

1:08:17

him he's frequent of the of the king's

1:08:20

land of the Red

1:08:22

keep. He's been chilling there years. You know, every time

1:08:24

when when Rainier

1:08:27

would give birth, he

1:08:29

greeted her on the stairway.

1:08:31

So he was there six years before

1:08:33

this, and he's still chilling. He gets out of when they get

1:08:35

out of the the the

1:08:39

Horstla, and their Daenerys is introduced by

1:08:41

Darkin, the King's Guard.

1:08:44

The next person they talk

1:08:47

to is is sir well as well who's who's

1:08:49

not looking happy because the king is

1:08:51

not well.

1:08:55

the And Yeah. They Otto

1:08:57

was trying to, you know, explain the

1:09:00

coup. He changed his

1:09:01

mind. He admitted

1:09:02

his wishes. It's as simple as

1:09:04

that. and now

1:09:06

he he's forcing them to be oath breakers. You must now as you watch, swore your banners to

1:09:08

Raineyra. Now you must pledge

1:09:10

them to the future king. And

1:09:15

I still haven't been able to figure out

1:09:17

who this first lord is, you know,

1:09:19

who doesn't immediately bend the knee. I

1:09:21

must get there with my house on

1:09:23

this matter. It turns and starts to walk away. Then we realize how

1:09:25

serious auto is. So auto would

1:09:27

let them remove

1:09:32

Peaceberry's body the door remains shut until

1:09:34

we finish our business. And here, you will not leave this room without declaring your

1:09:39

intention. Terrifying it kinda slinks

1:09:41

down the the steps of the throne too. It approaches him. Yeah.

1:09:43

And he says closer and closer to

1:09:45

him, you know, just increasing

1:09:48

the pressure to bend the

1:09:50

knee, say yes. You know, it's they know that it's say yes and bend the knee or go

1:09:52

to straight to jail right away. Right

1:09:54

to jail. Right away. Straight to jail.

1:09:59

Or they may be even killed on the spot?

1:09:59

I mean, who knows? But this lady,

1:10:02

I

1:10:02

think, said that the house fell,

1:10:05

who says, I am no oath breaker. I'm pretty

1:10:07

sure I remember the lady saying, I am no oath breaker and then

1:10:09

maybe somebody else says, I will not bend

1:10:11

the knee and maybe her.

1:10:14

No.

1:10:14

It's it's it's the guy because he turns back

1:10:16

away for as he's about to

1:10:18

leave. He turns back towards Otto. And he

1:10:20

Otto basically is calling his bluff. Like, you're

1:10:22

not trying to just leave the room to confer. You're trying to

1:10:25

get out of here because you're not gonna

1:10:27

follow through with conferring at

1:10:29

all. You're just trying to you know, rally your

1:10:31

your people, basically. And he's like, I'm no oath

1:10:33

breaker. I will not bend the knee. And

1:10:36

I'm like, good for him. He

1:10:38

has balls. There might have made me think of Team America.

1:10:40

I like

1:10:42

you. You

1:10:44

have balls.

1:10:46

I like was.

1:10:48

And

1:10:48

so I was like, yeah. Good

1:10:50

for him. And then auto looks around.

1:10:52

Anyone else? And that's one

1:10:54

of the human steps. Right? Mhmm.

1:10:56

And she's from House

1:10:58

fail. House fail keeps its sworn oath to the princess. Yeah.

1:11:01

I don't think in

1:11:03

the books or

1:11:06

to previous

1:11:06

show. I don't think I've ever

1:11:08

heard mention of House fail. Yeah.

1:11:10

Neither have I.

1:11:11

Cool House did. I can't recall it

1:11:13

at all. So New House has

1:11:15

been introduced. Bad ass move. That's some

1:11:17

that's some big ovary energongs right there.

1:11:20

You know, good good

1:11:22

for her. She doesn't it doesn't back down. Doesn't doesn't

1:11:24

hesitate. She just straight up. It tells

1:11:26

it like it is. Like, we

1:11:29

are keeping our oath. And so

1:11:31

then at this point, I think Caswell is still

1:11:33

standing -- Yeah. -- and yeah.

1:11:35

He is.

1:11:37

Auto says very

1:11:38

well and the the man and the lady

1:11:40

fell are escorted away, you know, straight

1:11:43

to jail, right away. Stand. and

1:11:47

If if Manuel still

1:11:47

standing here, Ronald, they escort

1:11:50

him away

1:11:51

too. He hasn't

1:11:53

vocalized specifically

1:11:56

that he's he's not falling in line yet.

1:11:58

It seems like he hasn't bent the knee yet, but then he quickly does. Yeah. And

1:11:59

but he's I

1:12:03

mean, we know him And we

1:12:05

know that he's, you know, at

1:12:07

least sympathetic to Renira if he doesn't outright support her But as

1:12:09

he kneels,

1:12:11

you know, just And

1:12:13

it's just with camera work. And the

1:12:15

actor the actor, like, we know that he's bending the

1:12:17

knee, but

1:12:18

he's not really bending the knee. He's doing it to

1:12:22

you know, survive,

1:12:24

you know, and play, you

1:12:26

know, play what is it?

1:12:28

Surive

1:12:28

another there's another phrase

1:12:31

in a way or another day will

1:12:33

ever ban and will

1:12:35

ever pads and pads

1:12:37

yeah

1:12:38

Yes.

1:12:40

Yeah. Something. Live to fight another

1:12:42

day or something. Yeah. So so he bends the knee, but, obviously, you

1:12:44

know, tries to jet out

1:12:46

of town here pretty quickly. Yeah.

1:12:50

And Lairess is lurking and watching from above, and he notices that Caswell is

1:12:52

fainting bending the knee. I

1:12:54

think he's like, oh, we see

1:12:59

has a I'm gonna keep my eye on him. Yeah. I

1:13:01

guess he just clocks

1:13:03

Caswell's hesitancy to immediately

1:13:05

bend the knee like everybody else

1:13:07

did pretty much. Yep. And it's like maybe

1:13:09

he's one we need to keep our eyes on. Definitely. So what do

1:13:11

you think? You think these these people that

1:13:13

are taken away by the

1:13:15

two kings guard house fell's

1:13:17

representative, the woman, and the other man whose name, we don't know. You think they're just

1:13:19

being disappeared or

1:13:23

what? Are you think they're being held

1:13:25

captive to try to leverage their houses into compliance?

1:13:28

Yeah.

1:13:29

yeah Probably,

1:13:30

i mean I mean, the way they did things,

1:13:31

you know, in this universe, a good bit, I think, was, you know,

1:13:33

basically, yeah, try to hold it, you know, get a

1:13:35

captive or something,

1:13:39

like, award. yeah, force them force the rest of their family

1:13:41

to, you know, come to the negotiation

1:13:43

table and okay. The

1:13:46

whole family come to king's landing, bend the knees,

1:13:49

wear a filter to to the new king,

1:13:51

and we'll release, you know, lady

1:13:53

fail -- Mhmm. -- you know, Florida, whoever

1:13:55

it is. what mean, if they want to be totally

1:13:57

vicious and I mean, they made an example out

1:13:59

of Caswell, but

1:14:00

an example on a caswell but

1:14:02

they could make

1:14:03

an example out of them too and or they could

1:14:05

just disappear of them into the black

1:14:07

cells never to be

1:14:09

seen again. Personally, I would hold them in

1:14:12

a cell and send a raven and be

1:14:14

like, listen, we got your your your lady

1:14:16

or your fellow over here. you're gonna

1:14:18

join Team Green. Otherwise, we're gonna

1:14:21

splatter them all over Kings

1:14:23

Landing, basically. Yeah. So it makes

1:14:25

more sense to if you're

1:14:27

gonna try to unite the realm, basically,

1:14:30

to rally forces to your claimant. You

1:14:31

would make more

1:14:34

use of your time and

1:14:37

effort and energy and your

1:14:39

hostage to get the rest of their house to cover down on the plan.

1:14:42

Definitely. Definitely.

1:14:45

So

1:14:45

we get some more really good

1:14:47

music at this point and cuts back to

1:14:52

Kristen Cole and Eamon as

1:14:54

they're continuing to search. And Kirsten's

1:14:56

a little bit mad. He's like,

1:14:58

boom, seems like he didn't know

1:15:02

begun as well as you think you did.

1:15:04

And Eamon is considering the possibilities that it

1:15:06

could be in the hands of mercenaries. He

1:15:08

could be out of ship to

1:15:10

Yee Tea. He could be dead. if they

1:15:12

have to hope that that's not the

1:15:15

case, at least their for his mother's sake, it cuts to Eric and

1:15:16

Eric.

1:15:18

ERAC

1:15:21

and ARAC, and it turns out

1:15:23

they are at a

1:15:28

horrifying location. the

1:15:29

rat pits. Apparently, this is something from the books. Basically,

1:15:32

fighting

1:15:32

pits with little kids,

1:15:35

which is freaking crazy. and

1:15:39

they're inspecting a kid's teeth at first, and

1:15:41

he's got the whittled down filed down

1:15:44

teeth like Christopher Walker and sleepy

1:15:46

hollow or all of his teeth

1:15:48

are Point two. Oh, man. And just

1:15:50

seeing the kids fighting in the pit here

1:15:52

as they were

1:15:55

getting the explanation from from

1:15:58

Eric to

1:15:59

Eric about what's going on and who these

1:16:02

kids are and how they make them grow

1:16:04

their nails and fight. this scene here,

1:16:06

it's a good thing that they include this in a book, I think, because the picture, the

1:16:09

image of the

1:16:12

children fighting sort of symbolizes

1:16:14

how the children of Reneera and Alison are being have been pitted against each

1:16:17

other in a

1:16:20

similar less less of -- Yeah.

1:16:22

-- a less, like, immediately brutal way to these kids. But I'm watching the kids fighting and I'm like,

1:16:24

that's exactly what's going on

1:16:26

in, like, the main story as

1:16:29

that these kids have been trained to,

1:16:31

prepared other throne effectively. So

1:16:34

it's a good little crocosm

1:16:38

of of the big picture situation like a freckle where you zoom out and you see the same thing

1:16:41

on a

1:16:44

larger scale. Absolutely.

1:16:46

And think about that.

1:16:48

So it's horrifying as these

1:16:50

kids are, like, being treated

1:16:53

like Cox or

1:16:54

dogs and

1:16:56

being forced to fight each other for

1:16:58

some unknown purpose. People are betting

1:17:00

on it and Apparently, Aegon loves

1:17:02

to come to this place, which is super fucked up. Looks like they're about ten years old according to

1:17:08

Eric man, it's messed up.

1:17:10

Aegon spends many nights in this night in this place. So, yeah, we we we

1:17:12

do have it confirmed here

1:17:14

that Eric is the one who

1:17:19

has spent all the time with

1:17:21

Aegon and knows how fucked up

1:17:23

he is. And

1:17:25

Eric it seems has been unaware

1:17:28

of all of this type

1:17:30

of stuff. because Eric with

1:17:32

an e is like, dude, you

1:17:34

see now how fucked up this That twisted.

1:17:39

Aegon is fucked. and you've

1:17:41

not even seen everything yet and he points over to the side and hidden in the shadows, but like,

1:17:47

a probably like, within behind bars

1:17:49

it seemed like is like a little boy sitting there with super light

1:17:52

blonde hair. super light

1:17:54

blonde hair And Eric with an a

1:17:56

is like, one of Aegon's

1:17:58

bastards. And Eric is like,

1:18:01

yeah, one of many,

1:18:03

I had So it's crazy,

1:18:05

easy, confirmed kids of Aegon's living

1:18:08

in squalor.

1:18:11

and the child fighting pit. So, yeah, so messed up.

1:18:13

Talk about it. So we learned later that and

1:18:15

we've seen that

1:18:18

Aegon is, like, craving approval and

1:18:20

love from his parents, you know.

1:18:22

But like like an abusive situation,

1:18:28

he He is now doing the same thing to

1:18:30

his own kids and ignoring them. He's fathered bastards and he's left him to rot out in king's

1:18:34

landing and royal blood is being probably forced to

1:18:36

being fight each other in in in this

1:18:38

fighting pit for kids and stuff. And

1:18:40

it's like he's just perpetuating

1:18:43

the cycle of not providing the love

1:18:45

to the children that needs to be provided,

1:18:47

which is horrible to to

1:18:50

learn, you know. Crazy insane insane insane. Deepgramity.

1:18:52

And so intercut, as we

1:18:54

continue, we start seeing CASWell preparing

1:18:59

to try to flee the red keep. So at first, he

1:19:01

arrives over at the horse's and he's kinda

1:19:03

looking around like, just

1:19:07

just going to get my

1:19:09

oars. No nothing to see here. That it cuts

1:19:11

back to Eamon. And he's

1:19:16

telling Kristen how he's a better fit

1:19:18

to be king than Aegon. We're starting to get a little bit more insight into

1:19:20

the dynamic between the

1:19:23

relationship between Aegon and Aymond.

1:19:26

Yeah. And he's like, dude,

1:19:29

here we are. Trailing the city

1:19:31

like an ocean trying to find a

1:19:33

freaking minnow you know, my brother who could

1:19:35

be anywhere, he calls him a wasterel.

1:19:38

In search of a wasterel who's

1:19:40

never taken half an interest in his

1:19:42

birth rate. Tizai, the younger brother who studies

1:19:44

history and philosophy. Tizai, who

1:19:46

trains with a sword, arrives

1:19:48

the largest dragon in the

1:19:50

world. It is I who should be and he stops short of saying king.

1:19:53

Mhmm. But we have everybody knows

1:19:55

that he's thinking. And Kristen

1:19:57

Cole kind of

1:19:59

has to calm down like I

1:20:02

noted is to toil for what for what others are freely given. And it's this line here

1:20:04

toiling for what others

1:20:07

that are freely given which

1:20:10

harkens back to Helena's quote. It is our fate, I think, to crave always what

1:20:12

has given

1:20:16

to another. If one possesses

1:20:18

a thing, the other it this be Eimand

1:20:20

actually intervening at

1:20:23

some point with with

1:20:27

Aegon potentially. because she's been

1:20:29

right about other things, you know,

1:20:31

about Eamon having to close

1:20:33

an eye. And so It's interesting. It's I'm

1:20:36

really curious to see now what

1:20:38

plays out between these two brothers.

1:20:41

Yeah. Their dynamic is we get to see a little bit

1:20:43

of it as as Eamon finally gets his hands on him and,

1:20:45

you know, they have a little tussle there in

1:20:47

the streets. But yeah.

1:20:51

Eamon definitely is ambitious and

1:20:53

but but also no can see the writing on the wall that

1:20:55

he's way better suited to to

1:20:57

be king than Aegon.

1:21:00

Way better way

1:21:02

better. Eggon is such a just a bastard. I mean, you know, he's got everything, oh, the bastard

1:21:04

blood, but he's true born.

1:21:06

You know what I mean? And

1:21:11

it's interesting here because Eamon says that

1:21:13

he says, I'm next in line

1:21:15

to the throne. Should they come looking for

1:21:17

me? You know, I intend to be found

1:21:19

because they can't find

1:21:21

Aegon, he's hiding, but he's like, me, I would stand

1:21:23

up, and I would do it. Just like how Aegon didn't want to marry Helena, but

1:21:25

he was like, I

1:21:27

would do it. people speculate

1:21:30

that those kids, the twins, may not be egg ons at all, that they may be

1:21:36

a month which could explain how

1:21:38

Helena seems to have insight between the two brothers wanting what the other have.

1:21:41

But it's

1:21:44

interesting because Aymond would not be next

1:21:46

in line. It would be the son, one of the twins of Aegon,

1:21:48

who would be next in

1:21:50

line. Correct? One of the infants.

1:21:54

Yeah.

1:21:54

Tahira, boring.

1:21:56

Or no. Tahira's Tahira's.

1:21:58

Some of their Tahira's.

1:21:59

Interestingly. Yeah. Interesting. Yeah.

1:22:02

So So then it cuts back to Caswell who's

1:22:04

now atop his horse and starting

1:22:06

to head towards the gate,

1:22:08

hoping nobody will notice him. and then

1:22:10

it cuts back to Eric and Eric. And,

1:22:13

sir,

1:22:13

Eric with an

1:22:14

e is straight up.

1:22:16

He's saying it. at this point.

1:22:19

Like, something must be done. Aegon

1:22:21

is unfit to rule. And

1:22:23

so he's like, He is stepping

1:22:25

out of line here as far as it's concerned as far as his role is concerned, you

1:22:27

know, they're sworn to

1:22:30

obey and to protect but

1:22:33

he's just being real about this and he's got the

1:22:35

balls to stand up for what he believes in. And he's like, dude,

1:22:37

this is bad that we can't

1:22:39

allow this and A

1:22:43

rack. Eric Eric, his his brother

1:22:45

is like, well, you've tolerated the

1:22:47

Prince's proclivities for years. He's

1:22:49

like, only because it was

1:22:51

my sworn duty And Eric is like,

1:22:54

it's for

1:22:54

the king to find wisdom.

1:22:56

We

1:22:56

swore an oath

1:22:59

of service until death. like,

1:23:01

we have no part in this discussion. We

1:23:03

our influence is not wanted. We we have no role to try to

1:23:05

change the way that things are

1:23:07

gonna play out. and

1:23:11

this they're interrupted at this point by

1:23:13

a oh woman

1:23:15

who asks for a moment

1:23:18

of their time And one of them, I'm not

1:23:20

sure which at this point, thinks she's a

1:23:22

horror. And so she's like, you'll find no

1:23:26

buyers for your wares here. but then she reveals what really

1:23:28

there for. Can take you

1:23:30

to Prince Aegon

1:23:31

or actually I'm sitting

1:23:33

by one who knows

1:23:35

where he is. tell

1:23:37

you for a price. Deliver him

1:23:39

and we'll consider your price. And she says, her boss,

1:23:41

she don't

1:23:42

wanna talk with any service.

1:23:46

Only the

1:23:47

hand of the king. Exalted as servants may

1:23:49

be. Yeah. She kinda liked us a

1:23:51

little sarcastic courtesy.

1:23:55

Yeah. Just So it seems interesting that she knows that, I

1:23:57

mean, an exalted servant, you know, this

1:23:58

is the king's

1:23:59

guard. Yeah. She

1:24:02

knows exactly who they are.

1:24:04

Yeah. Very interesting. Very interesting. So she must you

1:24:06

know, she's clearly involved with the Spide Network, and she's been tasked

1:24:11

to learn the faces of all these people from from the Red

1:24:13

keep so that she could keep

1:24:15

track of them and

1:24:17

recognize them if she sees them. Yeah. Follow them throughout

1:24:19

the city if needed. Yeah. Just the fact that she

1:24:21

is able to recognize who they are, shows

1:24:24

how well and

1:24:26

well oiled and well prepared

1:24:28

the white worm trains her

1:24:30

foot soldiers, her little spiders to be.

1:24:35

Exactly. Yeah. Definitely. So she

1:24:37

says that the white worm she doesn't name drop the white worm yet, but she's saying her

1:24:39

boss will only deal

1:24:43

with the king. in one of the twins.

1:24:45

Impossible. Stuffs. And now see name drops. I think he will

1:24:48

wish to hear what the Well,

1:24:50

this this source has never failed me

1:24:52

before. So

1:24:54

that indicates that there's been an ongoing

1:24:56

relationship between the two. He probably knows her by

1:24:58

the name of the White Worm, but is

1:25:01

unaware of her actual identity. And so

1:25:03

now this person is saying that the white worm actually wants to

1:25:05

meet with the hand of the king and

1:25:07

say that they're like,

1:25:10

and those prince Ayatollah's

1:25:12

whereabouts. Yeah. So it's high and

1:25:14

very high steaks. Very high steaks. Speaking of high steaks, it cuts back to Caswell

1:25:18

who is now legit attempting to flee the Red

1:25:21

Keep. And the gates are opening

1:25:23

and freedom is right in front

1:25:25

of him like he can just

1:25:27

can taste it. I

1:25:29

thought for a moment there might

1:25:31

be a dragon sitting on the other side of

1:25:33

the gate. I don't know. That would be crazy

1:25:35

if Cesar or Dreamfire

1:25:38

just in front of me. Sunfire? What's Aegon's dragon's is so Yeah.

1:25:40

Oh, if one of

1:25:42

the three, you know, the

1:25:46

greens Dragons! was sitting on the other

1:25:48

side of the gate, either roast him or,

1:25:50

you know, just, you know, yeah, just, you

1:25:52

know, grounds at him and he's

1:25:54

like, do you wanna rethink this, buddy? but

1:25:56

they just snatch him off the horse. Yeah.

1:25:58

Like, hold hold the gate. Someone realizes what's

1:25:59

happening and they

1:26:02

take him into custody

1:26:04

and And

1:26:05

he's like, lick of me. They pull off his horse. And he's

1:26:07

like, good off me. Do you know who I am? And

1:26:12

then we don't see Lara Strong in

1:26:14

the scene, but this script credits him

1:26:15

with saying, he

1:26:18

was fleeing from the gate. it I'm assuming that's the next scene.

1:26:20

Yeah. Yeah. Okay. We hear that

1:26:22

before possibly. I'm not sure.

1:26:26

Before we are just visual. think

1:26:28

so. And, Larry, you

1:26:30

know, thinks he knows,

1:26:33

you know, that what Casaro was up to a

1:26:35

warning for the princess, at a wager,

1:26:38

and then Otto tries

1:26:40

to

1:26:40

get him to confess. What

1:26:43

see you? I love that phrase.

1:26:43

What say you Let's say you airborne

1:26:46

says that when he's summoning the the

1:26:50

was The demon

1:26:52

army or the ghost army after you

1:26:54

have a name in the

1:26:55

return of the king. Yes. I'm in

1:26:57

you to fulfill your oath. I summon you

1:26:59

to fulfill your oath.

1:27:02

Fight for

1:27:04

me. And I will

1:27:06

hold your rose fulfilled.

1:27:13

What's saying?

1:27:14

Let's say

1:27:17

you, so

1:27:18

far. And

1:27:20

here we get,

1:27:23

Larry's title, Lordaeron Vessel. So does that

1:27:25

mean that he's does that AKA

1:27:27

royal torturer? Yeah. I think so. Yeah. Oh, man. That's

1:27:29

why he's got access to

1:27:32

the blood. x

1:27:34

l's and stuff. because remember we were we were thinking we

1:27:36

had to have some position official

1:27:38

position that gave him that type of

1:27:40

back -- Yeah. -- ground

1:27:42

access to the black l's access

1:27:44

to the black sails. And

1:27:46

also, it's an official position at

1:27:48

Kings

1:27:49

Landing that

1:27:51

keeps him there and not -- Right.

1:27:53

Yeah. Exactly. -- his, you know, his seat. True.

1:27:56

True. True. Lord

1:27:57

the Lord

1:27:59

confessed

1:27:59

her presumes.

1:28:01

So Caswell says that? Yeah. I think I

1:28:03

no the princess. Oh, then where were you

1:28:06

going with such urgency? I was

1:28:08

just

1:28:08

go

1:28:11

in and get some ice cream. We've gotta return some video games. Yeah. Would have been like

1:28:14

I would have been like, oh, yeah. He had pressing

1:28:16

business down at the doctor. I mean,

1:28:18

come up with some excuse, but he

1:28:20

just It doesn't even the

1:28:22

whole time you're getting dragged there, you didn't think of something. Right. He I was I

1:28:24

wasn't

1:28:26

urgent. I just optimal Morrison

1:28:28

was ready to go for a stroll. I mean,

1:28:30

they're gonna they're gonna string you up anyway,

1:28:33

but I'll

1:28:36

try to come up with some kind of

1:28:38

excuse, you know, to maybe they'll buy off on it. But anyway, let the king's

1:28:42

justice take him Oh, god. So by the king's justice, do you

1:28:44

think they meant Larry's or do you think

1:28:46

they meant, like, the death penalty? Yeah.

1:28:50

I'm

1:28:51

just looking to mean like

1:28:54

I mean, yeah, it's the death

1:28:57

penalty. Like, when

1:28:58

they say, lift the king's justice. Something they use

1:29:00

that phrase when they head and head.

1:29:02

Right. You can receive the king's justice.

1:29:05

Yeah. if that's, like, automatically death or if that's

1:29:07

just, like, let the justice system take care of him. You know

1:29:09

what I mean? I don't know.

1:29:10

Yeah. I wasn't

1:29:11

really quite sure either.

1:29:15

Cool line. Yeah. We see

1:29:17

him

1:29:17

hanging the next morning as

1:29:20

Rainy's makes her

1:29:22

escape. Yeah. But probably

1:29:24

didn't get a trial

1:29:26

by the

1:29:27

jury of his

1:29:29

peers. Yeah. Probably not. Is that a change from the books? I've listen to the

1:29:31

impression that it's not Sure. Sure. I haven't

1:29:33

gone back and looked. I haven't since

1:29:36

yesterday, heard

1:29:39

anybody talk about if

1:29:40

if that is the same fate

1:29:42

he meets in the book or not.

1:29:44

I mean, I'm sure he dies because,

1:29:47

you know, who doesn't

1:29:47

Exactly. -- everybody does. But I don't

1:29:50

remember if he's hanged at the Red

1:29:52

Keep or

1:29:54

something else. I'd heard somewhere that he went and joined or near

1:29:56

us. Maybe a slight change from

1:29:58

the books. Interesting. Yeah. Well, they

1:30:01

made an example out of them.

1:30:03

Yeah. And whereas they made the

1:30:05

other people captive to try to sway their

1:30:07

houses. They killed this one. So maybe the other houses can be swayed and convinced to

1:30:10

join the Greens, but

1:30:12

the fact that this caswell

1:30:14

is killed may push the caswell house toward the blacks.

1:30:19

Definitely. So he had

1:30:21

that's pretty messed up, but he's dragged away kicking

1:30:23

and screaming. They drag him

1:30:26

out.

1:30:26

And he's like, look, told

1:30:28

me, this is not right. Yeah.

1:30:30

He's dragged off to the to the hangman's news presumably. Yeah.

1:30:33

And yeah. Auto

1:30:35

Auto

1:30:35

tells Larry's

1:30:38

that that he did well.

1:30:39

Only my duty. Only

1:30:42

my duty. And out

1:30:44

here, Alan is still great

1:30:46

streaming and yelling, who do you think you are? And

1:30:49

then when we we

1:30:51

learn that auto knows

1:30:54

that Laris and Allison had

1:30:55

been talking a lot lately. He's been

1:30:57

many hours with the queen of late, and

1:31:00

then Larry says

1:31:01

he's, like, perfectly

1:31:03

ready for this. Like,

1:31:04

he hasn't covered his tracks so much

1:31:06

that nobody should know that he and Allison are meeting

1:31:08

and

1:31:12

talking, but you

1:31:12

know, he's he just kinda turns it

1:31:14

around and says, you know, I can make this work for you too. Double agent. So

1:31:17

he's Exactly.

1:31:19

My question is Is he gonna be

1:31:21

a double agent for for auto sneaking information for Alice

1:31:23

from Allison? Or is he

1:31:26

gonna be a triple agent

1:31:28

tricking auto and if you can use

1:31:30

a couple agents. He's a couple agents. Yeah. And then they're kinda doubling again. Yeah.

1:31:35

I love that. up. I just wrote he's playing

1:31:37

both Allison and Otto. Yeah. So when Otto thinks he's kinda got him pinned here. It's

1:31:40

like, what he've been doing,

1:31:42

spending all this time with the

1:31:44

queen, and he's just ready to just turn

1:31:46

it around and, like, oh, I'm doing it for you. You know, we can learn, you know, this, this, and

1:31:48

this about

1:31:49

what the Queen's doing. Yeah. All the

1:31:51

information is at your disposal. Exactly.

1:31:54

He's he'll tell Auto what he

1:31:57

thinks Auto needs to know.

1:31:58

And he'll

1:31:59

tell

1:31:59

Allison what he thinks Allison

1:32:02

needs to know. And he'll withhold information. I think

1:32:04

this is me, my what I think,

1:32:06

Larry, is really up to. Yeah. Very bullish

1:32:08

of him. Yeah.

1:32:11

He'll withhold information when it'll benefit

1:32:12

him for them not to know something. Yeah. That sounds about

1:32:14

right. He's not loyal to anybody by himself, I don't think.

1:32:18

Yeah. That makes sense. although he does seem to have a thing for

1:32:20

Alison's feet. And if you can't get

1:32:22

more feet c is, maybe he

1:32:24

would be upset. You might

1:32:27

be loyal to them. stanking

1:32:29

feet more than never

1:32:31

has. I mean, Adam has too. Oh,

1:32:36

gosh. Maybe his

1:32:38

tastes are less discriminating. Yeah. Clearly. Oh,

1:32:44

man. I think here we we go to

1:32:46

the the silent sisters wrapping the Sarah's body. Yeah.

1:32:49

I loved how they

1:32:51

had those like banners sticking up on

1:32:53

two poles from their backs. Yeah. They were like that. And

1:32:55

the original show was an interesting nice costume

1:32:59

design. Yeah. I think Jordan that into Eldon Ring

1:33:01

also. I seem to remember

1:33:04

potentially going through

1:33:06

the video game having that about

1:33:08

that. Maybe I'm just remembering m

1:33:10

o thrones. But, yeah, Allison is

1:33:15

looking positively bereft as the side of the

1:33:17

series are wrapping up the series. And it really she's really upset. Yeah. And this is what

1:33:20

lends me to think

1:33:22

that she really did love

1:33:24

Viceris on some level. And

1:33:27

I think that her choosing to back Agon is

1:33:29

out of loyalty

1:33:32

to this Sarah's largely because

1:33:34

she knows Aegon is a fuck stick, you know. And she understands like, she slapped the shit

1:33:37

out of him

1:33:40

last episode. and knew that

1:33:42

he was a monster for being a pedophile rapist and violating Diana.

1:33:47

And so hard for me willingly back

1:33:50

him. Sure. She's

1:33:52

he's her son, but I think

1:33:54

it's that loyalty to Viceris that

1:33:57

she really does wanna fulfill his

1:33:59

dying

1:34:00

wish,

1:34:00

you know. And she looks so

1:34:02

sad here. Really great acting by Allison.

1:34:05

But Yeah. Olivia Cook has has been

1:34:07

really good throughout. She was very very good this episode and, you know, all

1:34:10

kinda different scenes, this upcoming scene with her and brainy. She was really

1:34:12

good. this

1:34:16

sad sad scene when she wakes up

1:34:17

in the bed and she's upset when she first learns

1:34:19

that the series is

1:34:21

died and then here when they're prepare in his body. She seems

1:34:23

really upset. Yeah. Yeah. powerful. She's

1:34:26

yeah. She's a very, very

1:34:30

good actress. Definitely. Yeah. So rainy's

1:34:33

door unlocks and in

1:34:35

comes the queen.

1:34:36

And Reinees

1:34:39

doesn't even wait for any kind of explanation. He sort

1:34:41

of goes on the attack. Due

1:34:43

to the considerable courtesy of

1:34:45

assuming there was a good reason for

1:34:47

the outrage of my treatment here this morning. I see serious

1:34:50

regrets for that ceremony.

1:34:52

And they kinda there's this pause

1:34:54

and they kinda look at each other

1:34:56

and Randy's basically figures

1:34:58

out. There's only one reason. The keep would be she saw people getting herded

1:35:01

and locked

1:35:04

down earlier she's logged down.

1:35:06

It's like, oh, the king has died, and they're controlling everything. Yeah. Everybody's

1:35:09

movements to

1:35:12

split control. controlling the

1:35:14

flow of information. And so, Rainy's just says, the king, the king, you are usurping

1:35:16

the throne. Actually, he

1:35:18

knows the king has died.

1:35:22

And because of what they're doing, you know, in

1:35:24

the castle, so you can figure out that they

1:35:26

are if

1:35:27

there was just a normal

1:35:28

if the series died and they would Ravenswood

1:35:30

fly to every corner of the realm to

1:35:33

a bluejack installed. Every

1:35:35

other neighbor would come to Exactly. Raynarrowing, be

1:35:38

Crown,

1:35:39

you know, so on and

1:35:41

so forth. Yep. But all this suspicious

1:35:43

activity is like, he has died and

1:35:45

y'all are up to no good. Y'all

1:35:47

are up to no good. That's, like,

1:35:49

the first time I've ever

1:35:51

said y'all out loud, I think. Nice. You

1:35:55

know, Allison, you know,

1:35:55

tries to explain to her, oh, my husband's dying

1:35:58

wish. And Rami's wants to know part

1:36:00

of those

1:36:03

things. He's like, shit. Exactly. No sense.

1:36:05

And then but Allison is kinda pragmatic. And it's like, whether

1:36:08

you believe it or not,

1:36:10

you know, it doesn't matter because

1:36:13

this

1:36:13

is happening. Yeah. Aegon

1:36:15

will be. Aegon will be king.

1:36:18

Man. That's like

1:36:18

like Rami said, or no.

1:36:22

hello to

1:36:23

see oh, she says it right here in a

1:36:24

second. Allison says, I

1:36:26

need

1:36:26

your support, you know,

1:36:30

support add on. And Raines

1:36:31

is like, well, I gotta give it to you. You got

1:36:33

balls. I like balls.

1:36:35

Yeah. And Raines, it's interesting

1:36:37

she went from being overlooked

1:36:40

as queen to being, like,

1:36:42

pushed to the background by Corollus who is obsessed with the ambition and ignoring Reneus'

1:36:45

will and desires

1:36:48

to keep lean ore out

1:36:50

of it and to forget the ambition of the throne. And now all of a sudden, she's being, like,

1:36:52

courted by both sides. Ray

1:36:54

Narra is asking for her support.

1:36:59

Viceris is asking for her opinion at

1:37:01

court the prior day. Allison is coming

1:37:03

to her asking for

1:37:06

her support. That was another thing too. We didn't mention

1:37:08

the last podcast, but Raymond was the

1:37:10

only one who told her, like,

1:37:12

I don't need your support. you know? And

1:37:14

so when it came to the court scene

1:37:17

with where she had to choose a side,

1:37:19

she was like, oh, Raymond, you said

1:37:21

you didn't need me. So, you know, fuck

1:37:23

you, but watches the the blacks. Nice. Yeah. That's

1:37:25

true. And and, I mean,

1:37:27

so Corolla is

1:37:30

still hurt. because okay. Yeah. We can just kinda I

1:37:32

guess, go into that.

1:37:34

Allison tries to downplay,

1:37:37

you know, what what is what is

1:37:39

the what have the valerians gained? Yeah. By

1:37:41

siding with Renira being allied with Renira this this

1:37:43

whole time. Death, death, death, and

1:37:47

and, you know, injury. Laina, you know,

1:37:49

dad, all the woman in

1:37:52

Windows. Turn right near a

1:37:54

turn her son, you know, into a

1:37:56

cock. Yeah. Do you know

1:37:58

where that word comes from cuckled? No. It's it comes from the cuckoo

1:38:00

bird, which

1:38:01

is known to trick other

1:38:03

species of birds into tearing

1:38:06

for their offspring by laying eggs in the

1:38:08

nests of other birds. And then they go,

1:38:10

because they don't have to do any

1:38:13

of the work and the unsuspecting you

1:38:14

know, finish or whatever with

1:38:17

Robin. Yeah. Crazy crazy.

1:38:20

Crazy. You know, she says Reener's

1:38:22

ears, you know, talking about the valerian

1:38:24

boys. the strong boys. You

1:38:26

know, none of her errors aren't yours.

1:38:30

And

1:38:30

Allison sorta speaks eel of of Corollus. You know, it's your

1:38:32

husband who grasped so aimlessly at the

1:38:34

throne. And we know this because

1:38:38

of the conversations between Rainey's and

1:38:40

Corless. Rainey's tries to get him to drop it. Just leave

1:38:42

it alone. I've given up on the iron throne.

1:38:46

Let's live our life on driftmore. and be content. Yeah. We

1:38:47

have a cast or less territory.

1:38:50

Or less still wants to kinda

1:38:51

continue

1:38:52

to press the issue. So

1:38:54

Allison, you know, has the right

1:38:56

of this, you know, they're they're cordless

1:38:58

and brainy's kinda relationship with them. Yeah. And he and even he

1:39:01

has abandoned you gone six

1:39:03

long years to fight a

1:39:06

desperate battle

1:39:07

returning previously. It's not mortally

1:39:09

wounded, so cordless.

1:39:10

Right. And it's just just

1:39:12

one day has passed. since

1:39:14

last episode. So So this is a moment. I

1:39:16

was like

1:39:17

right right. And

1:39:18

they said this is what

1:39:21

you at the beginning of last episode

1:39:23

that he will get back to driftmark in three days.

1:39:25

Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. That's a surprise. He's still let's tell you his fate

1:39:27

is still unknown. I was thinking, oh, he should be

1:39:29

better by now. And I was like,

1:39:31

oh, no. We're just We're in

1:39:33

the next day. Was Harris just

1:39:35

died the night before? Six year time jumped to, like, two days three

1:39:36

episodes.

1:39:40

Yes. so, you know, his

1:39:42

fate, you know, is still unknown. I mean, it was as far as, you know, what's gonna happen of his wound.

1:39:48

Mhmm. leaving the lady of Driftmark to

1:39:50

chart her course along. I love that. Had that she used, like, oceanic terminology

1:39:54

for the lady of Driftmark since they're a seafaring house and so she -- Yeah.

1:39:56

-- says, later, different course. shorter

1:39:58

course. Yeah. Great great linguistics there.

1:40:03

ever,

1:40:03

you know, good writing. You know, the scene is really well done. She

1:40:05

says, their house the words of house

1:40:07

for Larry on are

1:40:09

not tickle. Yeah. I like

1:40:12

that word. Yeah. She kinda kinda walks off

1:40:14

and goes over to the window, I think,

1:40:17

here. Yep. And

1:40:18

then Alison calls her dear cousin.

1:40:20

I

1:40:20

was like, that

1:40:22

she was vocera's cousin.

1:40:25

He don't. Like, it kinda

1:40:27

annoys me sometimes when people try assume the relationship of,

1:40:31

you know,

1:40:32

you know a significant other,

1:40:35

you know, it's like I mean,

1:40:37

if

1:40:37

you're close to the person, that's fine. But

1:40:39

Allison and Race are not close. It would

1:40:41

be like She's a cousin in law type of thing. So good

1:40:43

cousin would've would've applied. I guess so. But she's just

1:40:46

like, oh, cousin trying to, you

1:40:48

know, play

1:40:50

on a familiar relationship. That's like -- Yep.

1:40:53

-- rainy's and Vocera's were

1:40:55

cousins. Like, you are a

1:40:57

high tower. from Old Town.

1:41:00

Get out of here. Allison

1:41:02

tells her, you know, you know

1:41:04

more than anybody, more than anybody alive,

1:41:07

what I'm about to say, And then Alison kinda

1:41:09

drops a bomb. And I I wish she said this to my

1:41:11

day. I did not think Alison would

1:41:14

admit this. I love my husband, but I will speak the truth

1:41:16

as we both know it. You

1:41:18

should have been queen. Rainy's is

1:41:20

like, why? Yeah. We Rainy's

1:41:23

and us were all like Oh,

1:41:25

man. A little thought to hear such

1:41:27

words from you. Allison says

1:41:29

the iron throne

1:41:30

was yours by blood. and

1:41:33

by temperament. Yeah. So you had the right and the character for it. I mean, the series had a pretty

1:41:35

good temperament as

1:41:40

far as I'm

1:41:41

trying to keep the peace, but he didn't have the

1:41:43

decisiveness, I guess, to to deal with

1:41:44

have the decisiveness i guess tough

1:41:46

to deal with things things in

1:41:48

here and now, but needed to be dealt with. And

1:41:50

to, like, handle all of the variances, like, he would keep it keep the realm peaceful, but

1:41:52

but as long as he knew there was peace,

1:41:54

he would go to his model set. Whereas,

1:41:57

somebody else may have been more hands on deck when it comes to, like, making sure everything's better than just

1:42:00

peaceful. You know

1:42:02

what I mean? That Right.

1:42:05

Following through conditions and that there aren't rat pits in the in king's litting --

1:42:07

Yeah. -- laying in the kids fighting each other -- Exactly. --

1:42:09

trying to improve it, not just

1:42:11

keeps the

1:42:12

status quo.

1:42:15

Yeah. Exactly. So it's cool

1:42:16

that she said. You know, obviously, we we know that

1:42:18

the iron thread almost hurts by blood, but

1:42:20

by temperament. You know, it's just she was

1:42:22

saying she was further complimenting Raynys about, you know, just how good

1:42:25

she would have been, you know, in that

1:42:27

position of power. Yep. It's funny

1:42:29

her vision of

1:42:30

of Acerus would have lived

1:42:33

his

1:42:33

days as a country lord. I

1:42:35

I was always thinking fat country lord. Anytime they say

1:42:37

country lord, like, I assume they're fat. Lord too fat

1:42:39

to sit hours.

1:42:42

Yeah. Bad country lord content to

1:42:45

hunt and study his histories, but

1:42:47

here we are.

1:42:49

now

1:42:50

our said Yeah. Allison, kind of folds,

1:42:52

you know, sorta

1:42:53

to the patriarchal system.

1:42:55

She says, we do not rule,

1:42:57

but we may guide them in

1:43:00

that do. which

1:43:02

later, Rainy's in a few minutes

1:43:04

here, Rainy's kinda turns around and tries to,

1:43:06

I think, manipulate and put a little

1:43:09

inception kind of idea into the

1:43:11

back of Allison's ad. Yeah. For

1:43:14

analysts who says they they need

1:43:16

to to guide them

1:43:18

in gently away from violence, ensure destruction, and

1:43:20

instead of

1:43:22

going back

1:43:23

towards peace. Bushum. Yeah.

1:43:25

Push them towards peace. It's funny because she's talking about she's implying that, like, women

1:43:27

are the more the fairer sex. You more peaceful and

1:43:31

responsible. But then Who

1:43:35

kills most people this episode? Rainy's -- Yeah. --

1:43:37

woman. -- slaughter is like half of

1:43:39

king's landing. Yeah. It's

1:43:41

literally across a lot

1:43:44

of people and the night dragon perhaps. Yeah. It

1:43:46

blows up through the floor. So it may not be quite as simple as men bad, women good,

1:43:48

you know. They each

1:43:51

have got characteristics and It's

1:43:53

a kind of symbiosis that can be

1:43:55

achieved when a man when women work together that I think is unattainable either either

1:44:00

in isolation as seen

1:44:02

with King Johannes, the conciliator and his wife, the good queen, Alessandra. Right.

1:44:08

Nothing, Allison. Is this is is this where

1:44:10

they had kinda tussled with their hands? Allison was begging her hold her hands and

1:44:12

ring her up. Yep. She begs her

1:44:14

head. Finally, breaks free in this kinda

1:44:19

dramatic moment and because he walks back to

1:44:21

the center of the room, and it just

1:44:23

repulsed by by Allison

1:44:24

and and what she's trying

1:44:26

to do to to persuade rainies over to

1:44:29

the greens. She asked, is it in the

1:44:30

name of peace that you've imprisoned me? And then the

1:44:34

key question, one of my drag. Yeah. I love her monetize right her dragon.

1:44:36

Like, my mind would go right to my dog

1:44:38

or, like, right to my bird, you know, like

1:44:40

-- Yeah. -- the same way.

1:44:42

I I just I mean,

1:44:44

There's

1:44:45

no other place to really

1:44:47

keep them aside to dragon pit, but to

1:44:49

Dragon Mont, potentially,

1:44:50

we're a scientist. Oh, yeah. That's on Dragonstone.

1:44:54

the

1:44:54

line. I mean, you could land her out in

1:44:56

Kings

1:44:56

Landing. Remember in in season

1:44:58

eight where there's this random,

1:45:01

like, open kinda area that the

1:45:03

golden company line up? Oh, yeah.

1:45:05

When John and

1:45:06

Tyrion are about to But

1:45:09

now, it receives the city.

1:45:11

True. True.

1:45:11

because, like, this open area that we've never

1:45:13

really seen where the Navy looked

1:45:15

at, everybody, in the big

1:45:17

shots.

1:45:17

And where where they kill

1:45:20

where basically, they have

1:45:22

Masante. Thursday has Masante up on

1:45:23

the battlements. And we're like, oh, where is this where

1:45:25

is

1:45:26

this open? It's like almost sandy

1:45:28

open

1:45:31

area. Only a full

1:45:32

in an

1:45:34

open field. Exactly. But, anyway,

1:45:36

I was like, I stay in

1:45:38

trying to think of a place

1:45:40

a

1:45:41

dragon rider could put their dragon. It's not the dragon. Well, she lives at

1:45:43

things like the mark. Right? So where would she normally keep it? It must

1:45:45

stay with her at drift mark. Right? At drift

1:45:47

mark, you know, just somewhere. hanging

1:45:50

out, like, over there where Vanguard was, you know, in

1:45:53

the sand dunes. Yeah. Just chilling. I

1:45:55

wouldn't wanna

1:45:55

I wouldn't want I wouldn't want to

1:45:58

leave my dragon locked up in the

1:45:59

dragon pit. hell no. At at the

1:46:02

whims of whoever controls the

1:46:03

dragon pit. Right. Basically, how's high tower? Right.

1:46:05

Especially if you're not

1:46:07

on their team. Yeah.

1:46:10

Like, you came here to hear Raymond and his petition for the of

1:46:16

Driftmark. and

1:46:17

turns out the series came in and kinda saved the day because the Hot Towers

1:46:19

had it all planned out. But

1:46:23

the Anyway,

1:46:24

I'll have to say, I would leave my

1:46:26

dragon in a dragon. Anyway, I couldn't easily get to it. I just tell her

1:46:28

to sit

1:46:29

up top of the

1:46:31

red keep and just state.

1:46:32

No. She's a delirian rivolier word for

1:46:34

state. They put -- Yeah. -- but

1:46:37

she's immediately it's like

1:46:38

one of my dragon.

1:46:41

Yeah.

1:46:42

So Alison is kinda doing the tactical, you know, dragon math of, you know, war. Yeah.

1:46:45

You know, if

1:46:48

we're overmatched, Raynira

1:46:50

will be tempted to strike us

1:46:53

and war will ensue. But

1:46:55

without your dragon, Raynira may

1:46:57

be, you know, persuaded

1:46:59

persuaded to negotiate So and, basically,

1:47:01

using mailies as, you know, hostage,

1:47:03

sort of like we were trying to

1:47:05

figure out the

1:47:06

lords and ladies of of

1:47:09

the -- Right. -- what they would

1:47:11

do with them besides the Keeping their

1:47:13

dragon as a hostage, so it's one less

1:47:16

dragon that

1:47:16

could

1:47:17

they're in the greens possession, and they are gonna hold onto it so

1:47:19

that it doesn't go

1:47:20

over to right near

1:47:22

the side of the chessboard. like

1:47:25

we were talking about, they lost the blacks, lost the radar to the greens. Yeah. brutal.

1:47:27

So they're trying to prevent that, which, you

1:47:30

know, which is a good

1:47:33

tactic on the greens part just

1:47:36

to control the dragons, especially a big dragon

1:47:38

with a very experienced rider. Very experienced decades.

1:47:43

Mailise

1:47:43

and Rainy's.

1:47:44

So they're

1:47:46

trying to, you know,

1:47:49

use that to

1:47:51

to get re near it to the negotiation table. Yep. And see

1:47:53

promises are drift mark, but it's

1:47:55

like it's never

1:47:57

a good negotiation

1:47:59

test that It's never a good

1:48:02

negotiation tactic to promise something that somebody already has. If

1:48:03

you want, just Martin, you

1:48:06

can have it. It's

1:48:08

like,

1:48:08

Randy's has been sitting to drift with drones the last

1:48:10

six years that Corollus has been gone. That's like what? What are

1:48:12

you talking about? And I need it. She's

1:48:14

saying once the greens are in power,

1:48:17

and wars over to leave her alone, and she

1:48:19

can have Driftmark. But the science, she already has Driftmark. And they have

1:48:24

Bayley's.

1:48:24

I mean, c smoked somewhere. He's

1:48:26

without a writer. And Bayley has I can't

1:48:29

remember dragon. Yeah. I can't remember

1:48:31

the

1:48:31

name of hers either.

1:48:34

and have

1:48:35

to look it up. So, anyway, arena. One

1:48:36

of them

1:48:37

arena, I think arena doesn't have

1:48:39

one available does. Anyway,

1:48:42

it's pretty pretty

1:48:42

interesting that the dragons they're already figuring out

1:48:45

if it comes to

1:48:46

war, who has what dragons and

1:48:49

what's gonna happen. and she promises her drift

1:48:51

mark and then she can pass it down

1:48:53

to her granddaughters. Rainey's, overall, seems

1:48:55

impressed with how astute Allicent

1:48:57

is regarding the overall dynamics of of this whole thing, the dragons, the,

1:48:59

you know, the leverage

1:49:04

in various things. And she's like, you are wiser

1:49:06

than I believed you to be. It kinda like gives them the up and down look, you know, and Alison

1:49:09

And they see calls

1:49:12

her. Yes. She calls her by her last

1:49:14

name. So you've been married to Viceroy Targaryen this whole time, so people may think of you as Allison

1:49:16

Targaryen, but You

1:49:19

are Allison Guggengen hour. Good

1:49:21

place. You've got you've been wear

1:49:23

these green dresses every day all day

1:49:25

since the wedding freeze. You are Alison

1:49:28

High Tower. like, you're coming out intending

1:49:30

to be my family, leveraging me, like, you're better than I thought you would be. You're still a high

1:49:32

tower. Exactly.

1:49:35

And Alison tries to say, you know, oh, shoot. True Queen

1:49:38

counts the cost to her people, which is

1:49:40

true.

1:49:42

shows how her

1:49:43

she's got the right

1:49:45

mindset for a leader.

1:49:48

Yeah. You know,

1:49:48

she's thinking about, you know, if four breaks

1:49:50

out, you know, what's it what's

1:49:52

it? This is gonna

1:49:53

cause, you know, when the high lords and ladies, you know, play

1:49:55

their Game of Thrones, it's a small folk who die.

1:49:59

So but Rainy's,

1:50:00

you know, tells her

1:50:01

he's like, yeah. But she still

1:50:03

toil in this

1:50:06

patriarchical system. You're you're still

1:50:08

serving Auto and Aegon. And

1:50:10

I mean, even Christian Cole.

1:50:12

I mean, Christian Cole serves as

1:50:14

a service. to the ones -- Yeah. -- through this whole through

1:50:17

this whole system. Great net line,

1:50:19

the next line. Yeah.

1:50:22

Absolutely. It says Irany's tells her, you don't desire to be

1:50:24

free. You just want to make a window in the

1:50:26

wall of your prison. Oh, I was like, oh, no.

1:50:28

No. No. No. That may be

1:50:30

one of my favorite lines of

1:50:32

of this episode. And then next line,

1:50:34

like, this totally changed the direction of this. She kinda gets Range

1:50:37

gets really close

1:50:40

to Allison. this literally

1:50:42

whispers in her

1:50:43

ear. Have you never imaged yourself?

1:50:47

Let me

1:50:56

Have you never

1:50:59

imagined yourselves

1:51:01

on the

1:51:04

iron throne? Oh. Yeah. I

1:51:06

also like Yeah. I also like.

1:51:10

look

1:51:12

up like some arrow look is speechlessness. He's

1:51:15

like no, but maybe I should, but that's

1:51:17

bad.

1:51:17

But it seems

1:51:19

like there's like like,

1:51:21

ten different thoughts. Like, embrace across her mind and

1:51:23

across her face in a span of, you know, half the seconds. Yep. Yes.

1:51:28

Snow Maybe I'm gonna I'm gonna leave you

1:51:30

I thought Allison sort of projected here. I'm gonna leave you

1:51:32

alone to your

1:51:35

thoughts. That's like, Allison was

1:51:37

gonna be alone with her thoughts too. Seriously.

1:51:39

And then this turned out

1:51:42

to be a really ominous

1:51:45

Startutation. Bring the bell when you have an answer. Yeah. Definitely. And so that was

1:51:47

interesting. Have you ever considered yourself

1:51:50

on the errand thrown? potentially.

1:51:53

So we know that there's

1:51:56

she's, like, planting the seeds of of

1:51:58

mutiny. Like like Corollus

1:51:59

said

1:51:59

to Raymond, in

1:52:02

the step to step stones. She's planting

1:52:05

little seeds that could fracture the

1:52:07

greens, you know, with Eamon who

1:52:09

is jealous of Aegon and there

1:52:11

could be conflict there. And now she's

1:52:13

saying to Alison, like, even you, you could set the throne.

1:52:15

Do you want that? Like, how have

1:52:17

you not been considering that you

1:52:19

have to be? Right?

1:52:22

Think about it. You could sit the iron throne.

1:52:24

And that's like another way that the greens could be divided and begin

1:52:26

in fighting if for some reason she was like, you know what?

1:52:31

You're right. I am gonna take the throne myself. So that's

1:52:33

that's a possibility moving forward. Although

1:52:35

it doesn't happen by the end

1:52:37

of this episode when things are

1:52:39

kind of settled to one degree or another.

1:52:41

Yeah. But, I mean, she like she said, she has the the temperament and

1:52:43

thought process of, you

1:52:46

know, counting the cost of for

1:52:48

people, you know, more than, you know, most

1:52:50

rulers do. He's obviously way better fitted than Aegon would be. Eamon is still,

1:52:54

you know, pretty young. and inexperienced in the of the world. What

1:52:57

does Danny say? Young and inexperienced

1:52:59

in the ways of

1:53:02

war? Yeah. I think of of the world. I can't remember. She

1:53:04

says it constantly in the books. And

1:53:06

and so funny dude, Roy Dothris. At

1:53:08

first, he does, like, a kind

1:53:10

of a normal verse voice for the narrator

1:53:12

for the audio books for Daenerys and book one and two. But then,

1:53:14

like, there was a gap between recording book two and three or

1:53:16

something. And so it comes back and

1:53:19

it does, like, a little Irish voice

1:53:21

for daenerys. I may only be a young girl without knowing

1:53:23

the ways of war. Yeah.

1:53:27

RIP, man. RIP, Rojo, Teresa. It's

1:53:30

so awesome. Power man, sir

1:53:32

Helene. Resideo. Who's gonna

1:53:34

be who's he gonna be?

1:53:37

He's gonna be Grand master Picell, I

1:53:39

think. Yeah. He was in the emergency manager, Yep.

1:53:43

Yeah. But

1:53:44

and then she got in

1:53:47

a show for with Grand Maestor in a what'd you say? Pyromancer, Helene.

1:53:49

i remains or alley

1:53:51

Yeah. There's a name

1:53:51

for those guys. Wisdom? Oh, yeah.

1:53:53

Wisdom Julio. That's

1:53:56

their their

1:53:59

title. the b r mancers are called wisdoms. Yeah. That's gizms for

1:54:01

for Gandalf and Saruman and Lord of the

1:54:03

Rings. That ass. Don't have dragon

1:54:05

fire. Wildfire is the next

1:54:07

best thing. Right? Exactly.

1:54:08

I wonder if that ever comes into play

1:54:10

in the dance. I don't remember it, but

1:54:15

who knows? Speaking of women

1:54:17

slaughtering citizens -- Yes. -- seriously blowing up

1:54:19

the sept. Oh,

1:54:23

man. So next, it cuts to Kristen and Eamon as

1:54:25

they arrive and spy Eric

1:54:28

and Otto

1:54:31

and Eric. meeting with Missaria and Christian turns to Eamon

1:54:33

and says, my prince, we have found

1:54:35

them. You know, he doesn't say we

1:54:37

found them, he just says, my

1:54:39

prince and I see auto and the

1:54:41

white worm and the the twins sitting down

1:54:43

and talking. Business. Yeah. I do.

1:54:45

This is such a

1:54:48

crazy scene. the autos wearing his hood

1:54:50

and everybody is all in their in their stealth garb

1:54:52

and beautiful massaria sits

1:54:54

down, looking all regal and

1:54:58

nicely dressed and everything and, you

1:55:00

know, their head tilted back

1:55:03

and the power pose

1:55:05

and And, autos, like,

1:55:08

you yourself, are the mysterious white worm, I

1:55:10

take it, or you simply a further

1:55:12

peel in this stinking onion with

1:55:15

another great line there. And dude, first line to him just

1:55:19

blows him away. my condolences

1:55:21

on the passing of your king. And he's like, oh my god. Like, what? Yeah. He has

1:55:24

tried so

1:55:27

hard to lock down everybody

1:55:29

and everything in the red key to keep this from getting out. Yeah. She just hits

1:55:31

him with the facts.

1:55:34

Like, I know your

1:55:36

secret sorry

1:55:37

the king is dead, and he's like, you don't

1:55:39

have much of a look, much of a giveaway, and he's like

1:55:40

-- Yeah. --

1:55:43

he's like, he's like, How

1:55:45

did she possibly know? And this is this simple sentence is enough for

1:55:48

to let him know that she's

1:55:50

for real and signals for the cash.

1:55:55

And one of the things I Yeah. Go ahead. Angela answer.

1:55:58

Come on. Yeah. Absolutely.

1:56:00

Yeah. So one of the boys

1:56:03

one of the twins bring over the cash

1:56:05

and he could stand a business. Where has Prince

1:56:07

egg gone? I and, you know, people were

1:56:09

speculating about her

1:56:12

accent before. wondering if it's French

1:56:14

or what it is, but I think it's, like, their own creation for, like, some, you

1:56:19

know, far off plan to toast

1:56:21

accent because I can't think of anything either, but I think I really liked it in this

1:56:23

scene as opposed to

1:56:27

her conversation with with Damon in episode

1:56:29

two or whatever it does was when the -- Mhmm. -- accident seemed kind of awkward.

1:56:31

I thought in this scene,

1:56:33

it was very effective and

1:56:36

mysterious, and vader

1:56:38

seemed powerful and and exotic and she,

1:56:40

you know, he would she tells

1:56:43

him that the prince was in flea bottom

1:56:45

where no one is to be trusted and she thought

1:56:47

it would be best to secret him away,

1:56:49

somewhere safe in case they come looking for him. And he he's

1:56:51

like, where? He's

1:56:55

safely tucked away. and then she gets down

1:56:57

to business on her end. I want an end to the savage use of children and sleep

1:57:00

on them. They're

1:57:02

forced to fight and

1:57:04

worse. your gold cloaks take

1:57:06

the bribes given to them to look away, and absentity either tolerated or

1:57:09

ignored by

1:57:12

the crown. And he's like,

1:57:14

I look into it. You have my word. And she further presses him. When your plot's ripen and

1:57:17

you install

1:57:20

your grand son in the throne. Remember it

1:57:22

was me who put him there. I could have killed him as easily as a wasp on

1:57:24

fruit. And

1:57:27

then the my favorite line of the whole episode right here -- Yeah.

1:57:29

-- there is no power, but what

1:57:31

the people allow you to

1:57:34

take. And I was like,

1:57:36

yes. Just like that, Missaria

1:57:38

becomes the best character on this whole self. Back against

1:57:40

the powers that be advent

1:57:42

advocating for the small folks a

1:57:46

voice for justice and decency in

1:57:48

the king's landing. And a reminder

1:57:50

that governments only have the

1:57:52

power that we, the people,

1:57:55

allow you to have. And I was

1:57:57

like, yeah. It's like a fist bump. Oh, man.

1:57:59

Oh, man. Queen. Queen. Queen. Yeah.

1:58:04

Sorry. Massaria twenty twenty four. So

1:58:06

awesome. It's like he has to it. Well, it's just you just

1:58:12

killed it. And and Otto's, like, I will remember. And,

1:58:14

like, you goddamn you're goddamn right you, well, because you know she's

1:58:17

powerful. She

1:58:20

knows things she has the ability to snatch people

1:58:22

up, you know, like, you better remember and you better respect her

1:58:26

because if you don't, She could probably have you killed. You

1:58:28

know, like, you're only breathing because

1:58:30

she is letting you. It seems

1:58:34

like AND AEGON, THE Crown PRANCE, IS ONLY

1:58:36

BREATHING BECAUSE SHE ALLOWED IT. SHE

1:58:38

HAS PEOPLE IN THE IN THE

1:58:40

KEEP, YOU KNOW, LIKE HER SPOTERS ARE

1:58:43

BLINKING AROUND. everybody's at danger if if Missaria is angered. So you

1:58:45

gotta keep her in a good mood.

1:58:47

I was sort of wondering

1:58:49

when Otto says, I

1:58:51

will remember if he meant that. The number

1:58:53

three or a sad way. Yeah. Yeah. That's true. He's like He could be like,

1:58:55

I remember. I'll

1:58:58

remember. It's like, Okay. This lady is dangerous. She needs to be dealt with.

1:59:00

I'm gonna have to take action or remember it,

1:59:02

and we can continue to work together. Yep.

1:59:05

You see? Very good very

1:59:07

good read on that. interesting

1:59:10

question. So instantaneously, Missaria is now one of the most

1:59:15

powerful people and in the seven

1:59:17

kingdoms with leverage over the hand and the crown, which is pretty

1:59:20

hardcore. And they're in

1:59:22

their in her debt,

1:59:25

for recovering the prince. So we'll have to see how that

1:59:27

plays out. Oh, do

1:59:30

we talk about Johannes

1:59:32

Crown? And

1:59:34

where they're wrapping up the

1:59:36

Sarah's body and Alison and his

1:59:38

crying? I don't think we talked

1:59:41

about that. No. after

1:59:42

after, you know, they finished wrapping

1:59:44

up Viceroy's body, he

1:59:46

Alison brings the crown

1:59:49

that Viceroy's war you know, his entire

1:59:51

reign, the the golden crown that has the different

1:59:53

sigils from the Lord's Paramount

1:59:54

-- No. -- all around it.

1:59:57

Prepaid ass. And

1:59:58

that was the the original age

1:59:59

of Harris got that crown. I don't

2:00:02

remember how he he came to to

2:00:04

possess it if it was a gift or

2:00:06

or what, the history of it. obviously, and

2:00:08

Allison choose to

2:00:09

crown Aegon with the conqueror's

2:00:12

crown. So

2:00:13

to

2:00:14

Harris made all statements,

2:00:16

exactly

2:00:16

to show to, you know, in Zoom power.

2:00:18

You know, Black Fire, the big up sword is

2:00:20

backfired a dot sword is

2:00:22

black and ruby black and ruby. Crown.

2:00:24

But here,

2:00:25

Allison places Viceris and Jahiris

2:00:27

Crown, the Golden Crown. on

2:00:31

the Cerus body, and and that's the last we see of

2:00:33

it. So I'm interested to see what

2:00:35

becomes of Tahiras the

2:00:38

Cerus crown. Yeah. very interesting. You got

2:00:41

a feeling you'll see it again,

2:00:43

though. So after after Alice

2:00:45

I'm sorry, after Otto and

2:00:48

Massario's

2:00:48

little sit

2:00:49

down chat. I think we find ourselves in us. The great septide, I

2:00:51

think it's the because septide baylor is

2:00:54

not a thing yet. Yeah.

2:00:57

And it's just called the

2:00:59

grape set. It's freaking gigantic. Like,

2:01:02

it makes Zoom Peter's basilica look

2:01:04

tiny. Yeah. And the

2:01:06

the Eric twins are just kinda looking around. So, obviously, they've been sitting here without specific instructions.

2:01:08

Yeah. Sorry. I probably said

2:01:10

something, you know, just kinda bag.

2:01:15

It's like, go look in the set. You might

2:01:17

find him in the center of the

2:01:20

set. Right. That's something,

2:01:21

you know, something kinda

2:01:24

cryptic and puzzling

2:01:25

like that. And so they're here kinda

2:01:27

on the hunt and they hear a cough.

2:01:28

It's

2:01:32

like, like, oh, listen.

2:01:34

And the sept is completely empty. Where are all the people? Yeah. They're being

2:01:36

rounded up. Well, I guess this is the

2:01:38

previous day. Oh, so they're trying to be rounded

2:01:40

up. this

2:01:43

next morning where they all get rounded up and forced to like,

2:01:45

you will go to the dentist and

2:01:48

you will witness it like,

2:01:50

oh, what if I gotta That's even gonna be doctor's appointment.

2:01:52

I got a doctor's appointment. No. I'm

2:01:54

gonna get that Goiter checked.

2:01:57

So they they

2:01:59

realized that that it must be under

2:02:02

this plint or some kind of alter kind of a central alter

2:02:06

type thing. So thought it funny that both of them reached inside to

2:02:08

pull them out instead of, like,

2:02:10

the little trapdoor is pretty

2:02:14

small. and instead of one of them just grabbing them,

2:02:16

they both kinda stick the top half of

2:02:18

their body in there, pull them out. You

2:02:20

basically, they pull them out, kick them

2:02:22

into the wing. They do everything together. Yeah.

2:02:24

Watch out ladies. Hey. So

2:02:26

they pull them out and

2:02:29

he's like, where's

2:02:31

the white worm? was his was I

2:02:33

thought was his is an odd first statement. So I guess maybe he worked I mean,

2:02:35

he seems to know that he was

2:02:38

taken into into her custody for a

2:02:40

protect and and

2:02:42

you she was right. Her people were like,

2:02:44

the white worm sent me to get you. We're gonna

2:02:46

keep you safe and hide you in the sept

2:02:49

because it's the perfect place for Aegon to hide

2:02:51

because it's the last place on Earth you would ever go. Yeah. So

2:02:53

it's like, damn that great

2:02:55

place to be. Eric, E

2:02:58

Eric said she sold you for a price and his

2:03:00

his head of funny response. Why did you

2:03:02

pay it? He needs to be left alone.

2:03:05

Well, not only that, but by saying why

2:03:07

did you pay it? He's like, why would

2:03:09

you why would you guys want me to be king? Like,

2:03:11

what the hell? You know, I'm fucked in the head. You

2:03:13

know, like, he's

2:03:16

total lunatic. And

2:03:18

so he's like, why? Why would you

2:03:20

do that? How'd he paint it?

2:03:23

Yeah. Larry is lying. And then

2:03:25

his his mommy issues surfaced. I

2:03:27

want my mother-in-law. My mother-in-law. Your

2:03:29

grandfather, the hand, will meet you outside

2:03:31

the city walls. a very interesting

2:03:33

line here. What was on the plane? Yeah. What was on the plane? He told Eric bring him

2:03:36

to only

2:03:40

to me. and you mustn't tell no one, not even

2:03:42

the queen. Mhmm. So what was the plan outside the city walls? That's

2:03:44

sort of mysterious. Outside the city walls, like you're

2:03:46

saying, it was not outside the red to keep.

2:03:50

outside the city was you gonna have a ship with

2:03:52

some gold and be like, get the hell out of here

2:03:54

or we'll kill you. So because we won a crown

2:03:57

Eimand, you know, or what what was the plan? I

2:03:59

don't know. It's pretty

2:03:59

pretty interesting. In in the

2:04:01

small council, when they

2:04:04

reveal that there's this long lay plot, do they

2:04:06

specifically name They do not need any of

2:04:08

the Do any of the conspirators

2:04:10

name Aegon? It They just say, oh, now we can proceed with the king's blessing.

2:04:12

So that could the

2:04:15

full of share sense. Yeah. Yeah.

2:04:17

It could mean that Alison's line is now the like, they got the blessing for

2:04:20

Alison's line.

2:04:23

It doesn't necessary serially mean that they want Aegon

2:04:25

to be crowned. It could mean like, oh, you know, if something happens to Aegon. But

2:04:28

then again, Otto,

2:04:31

what maybe wants to meet him outside the city walls to sneak

2:04:33

him in somehow so that he can

2:04:35

get him into the

2:04:38

the castle stealthily and so that he can

2:04:40

say we need to attack Reneera because they're

2:04:42

gonna try to fight, which is what Alison

2:04:44

is trying to prevent. She'd when they're

2:04:46

to give them counsel. Your grandfather will tell

2:04:49

you to strike, but you must

2:04:51

ignore this counsel, you know,

2:04:53

when they're in the wheelhouse, the

2:04:55

litter. the the horse left the horse left. So, you know,

2:04:57

Reagan kinda takes off running

2:04:59

here. Yeah. And and

2:05:01

one of the twins

2:05:04

grab him and they he's

2:05:06

because we flew with the other man. I think so. You flee what other man Yeah. Really

2:05:12

good one. he's

2:05:13

just showing over and

2:05:14

over again. Doesn't want this. He knows he's not suited for it. Other men would kill for

2:05:16

it. Yeah. So many people want

2:05:18

the throne. I mean,

2:05:19

the whole original

2:05:22

series is, you know, you know, vying for power

2:05:24

and to get the throne.

2:05:27

Then they

2:05:27

kinda wrestle him, you know, out

2:05:29

in the front of the intercept.

2:05:31

and met on the steps

2:05:34

by the other duo.

2:05:36

Yeah. The other

2:05:38

buddy cop team up adventure

2:05:40

pair. Crispin hunt pops

2:05:42

up out of nowhere. So I

2:05:47

truly regret this. So, Kristen

2:05:49

Cole, I I didn't really comment on his out on his disguise.

2:05:51

His little hat

2:05:53

that's,

2:05:54

like, sorta

2:05:56

like I don't

2:05:57

know. Henry the ace, you know, that kinda little hat that kinda has a little

2:05:59

poof on it. I don't know.

2:05:59

It looked it looked pretty

2:06:01

silly. You sent me the the

2:06:03

meme know where it's said

2:06:07

these people cost playing their heroes, and it

2:06:09

was like, Kristen Cole was in was

2:06:11

wearing a similar hat

2:06:13

to Rinderda. when they when Reneer and Damon

2:06:15

had gone on their nighttime excursion,

2:06:17

and Damon here was wearing a

2:06:20

similar cloak to Damon. So

2:06:22

they're like, the person that they're obsessed with each

2:06:24

one is kind of modeling

2:06:26

them. Yeah. Definitely cosplaying their

2:06:29

heroes. Oh, they're

2:06:31

obsessed with. Yeah. can't

2:06:32

get over him. I was listening to

2:06:34

another podcast, and they were thinking the opposite, that

2:06:37

Arik

2:06:38

with an

2:06:40

a, They're wrong

2:06:41

is I agree. Yes. So,

2:06:42

anyway, so this is Eric. This is

2:06:45

Eric with an e.

2:06:47

I'm pretty sure that is, you

2:06:49

know Eric is the one that goes black and never

2:06:51

goes back.

2:06:55

Actually, yeah. So Aric is the one sword

2:06:57

fighting. Crossing swords with with Cole. Yep. because he's still a little jagon

2:06:59

at this point. Right. Eric

2:07:02

still just stays up on

2:07:04

the the top step of

2:07:06

the set. It's like Yeah. I'm good. So that's why yeah. Yeah. Ben is his

2:07:09

brother. That's hardcore.

2:07:12

That's crazy. in the

2:07:14

middle of a sword fight between him and Kristen Cole. Yeah. So it was like a renowned warrior. Two on one, they probably could taken

2:07:17

him, but he

2:07:20

was like, Honestly, ma'am. Absolutely.

2:07:22

So then this leaves Eamon free to pursue Hagal

2:07:24

because, you know, the two kings

2:07:26

guard kinda take care

2:07:27

of each other.

2:07:30

And,

2:07:30

you know, I guess,

2:07:32

Eamon realizes that the other

2:07:34

kings guard isn't gonna participate.

2:07:36

So he's

2:07:37

like, okay. You know,

2:07:39

Cole can handle Aric.

2:07:41

So I'm gonna

2:07:42

go chase down Aegon. Yeah. And so Aegon and Aegon both go scampering down

2:07:44

the stairs from

2:07:47

opposite sides. And and

2:07:50

catches up to him tackles pinned

2:07:53

down on

2:07:56

the ground. and

2:07:58

Eamon, you know, has a moment of honesty with his

2:08:00

brother. I was hoping you're I was

2:08:02

hoping you disappear. Yep. because he

2:08:05

wants that crown baby. and Aegon is just

2:08:07

like Gidi in this, like and I

2:08:09

guess he realizes he's caught and there's he's

2:08:11

not gonna escape, you

2:08:13

know, his fate of becoming king So he's just

2:08:15

kinda like Gidi and, you know, playful almost with

2:08:18

with Eamon. His little

2:08:20

brother,

2:08:21

quote unquote,

2:08:23

little. This is our is

2:08:24

our father's family. father truly dead.

2:08:26

He might just be excited that

2:08:29

the Sarah's is dead because

2:08:31

Fesareus never respected him. And it seems like remember when they're at the

2:08:34

court hearing where they're deciding who is

2:08:36

gonna be

2:08:38

air to draft mark. It was, like, as soon as his mother

2:08:40

got, like, outdone by Reneera, he

2:08:42

was laughing about it. He seems

2:08:44

to laugh and think it's funny whenever

2:08:46

somebody gets better of his parents, basically. Yeah. Yeah. And

2:08:49

so he's yeah. It was probably

2:08:51

just his mommy and

2:08:53

daddy issues you know, anytime -- Yeah. -- somebody, you

2:08:56

know, hits him with a zinger or

2:08:58

whatever, he kinda strikes him as funny.

2:09:00

Yeah. Eamon tells

2:09:02

him, yep. father's truly dead and they're gonna make you

2:09:04

king. Say, hang on. Spits it as

2:09:06

one good eye. It's like how dirty

2:09:08

a move is it to spit in the

2:09:10

I have a one eyed man. Dude, spinning. Yeah. That's

2:09:13

super dirty. And it like, if you

2:09:15

spin like, spinning in somebody's

2:09:17

face is like a deckler a creation of four. Like,

2:09:19

if if you spin my face, I'm gonna

2:09:21

rip your throat out. Yeah.

2:09:23

That's the worst.

2:09:26

Yeah. So

2:09:26

Aegon, does he run off again? Does

2:09:28

he choke him some more in here? I

2:09:30

can't remember. Aegon says no. He lifts

2:09:33

him to his feet. And

2:09:34

it it cuts back

2:09:36

to to Eric

2:09:39

and to Kristen. And he's

2:09:41

like Kristen's like, where's your brother? You know? And he's long gone. And

2:09:43

the two of them both also run down

2:09:46

the stairs from opposite sides

2:09:49

and start clashing again. And it cuts to a really

2:09:51

cool shot of a, like, some some bystanders who

2:09:53

who all of a sudden

2:09:55

are like, oh, my

2:09:58

god. As these guys are clashing with swords

2:10:01

right next to him, it pans over

2:10:03

to the sword fight. We

2:10:05

see that Eric has abandoned Eric.

2:10:07

Eric. Then the brothers

2:10:09

kinda

2:10:09

clash some more egg on saying,

2:10:12

let me go. I don't wanna

2:10:14

rule. I have no taste. I'm not

2:10:16

suited. And Eamon is like, you're

2:10:18

right, man. I can't argue with that. You are you are definitely not suited.

2:10:24

And there's an interesting moment here. Aegon says,

2:10:26

let me go. I'll find a ship and I'll never be seen again. And and there's

2:10:29

this pause

2:10:31

before you

2:10:32

know, comes up behind the Pagan. And

2:10:34

if it was just left to Aymond in this moment

2:10:36

-- Yeah.

2:10:37

-- I think I

2:10:39

think he would Quickly

2:10:40

escort Aegon down to the harbor, put him on a

2:10:43

ship and watch him sail away. Agreed.

2:10:44

on a sea of and wash him sail

2:10:46

away agreed But Kohl's

2:10:48

here, and Aegon knows it

2:10:50

too is like -- Yeah. -- cold cold cold in my face. Like, you just let me go. Oh. And then let me go.

2:10:52

Kristen slinks up and oh,

2:10:54

man, when when he this

2:10:59

armed Eric, right, and made him drop his sword.

2:11:01

He picks up the sword and he has,

2:11:03

like, the smugest look on

2:11:05

his face. Yeah. I

2:11:09

just wanna

2:11:12

ring Kristen's neck -- Yeah.

2:11:14

-- super small. He's the worst. It

2:11:16

comes about behind Aegon and the

2:11:19

the Queen awaits. Oof. And

2:11:21

then it cuts to

2:11:23

Allison's meeting with Auto.

2:11:26

And Auto is like, oh, well

2:11:29

played. And she says, none of

2:11:31

this is a game, which is

2:11:33

like, a game of Thrones, you know, like

2:11:35

it really is, which is kind of a funny thing. And he's like, oh, you treat

2:11:37

it like a

2:11:40

game and whatever our differences, our hearts

2:11:42

remain as one. It's the good of the family that we both desire, and

2:11:44

this is

2:11:47

Allison finally up herself standing up to her father.

2:11:49

Remember her conversation with Rainy's earlier?

2:11:52

She's like, you

2:11:54

still just obey men. You're father, your husband, your, you know, your son.

2:11:56

Yep. And and so

2:11:58

finally,

2:11:58

Alison is

2:11:59

standing up for

2:12:02

herself. And the seed that that

2:12:04

Rainy's planted about her one wanting

2:12:06

to sit the throne, hasn't sprouted, but the

2:12:10

seed of of to divide

2:12:12

auto and Allison by is

2:12:15

starting to sprout and Allison

2:12:17

to stepping up for

2:12:20

herself and confronting her father head

2:12:22

on in this situation, which is really awesome. She's like, you

2:12:24

know, this is like you

2:12:26

know she she tells him that our hearts were

2:12:28

never won and that she sees that now and

2:12:30

she's just been a piece on the on the

2:12:32

board that autos would move around and he's

2:12:34

like, well, if that's true, then That

2:12:38

means I made you queen. Right? So he's basically admitting it. That's that's saying like it's true. Yeah. Would you have

2:12:43

desired the the cran the crown

2:12:45

otherwise and she's like, how would I even know? The only things I've ever wanted are the things that you

2:12:48

have imprinted on

2:12:51

me to want And and

2:12:53

now the debt comes due. The debt that you're happy enough to

2:12:55

pay, slaughtering Rainira

2:13:00

and Damon And he's he's like, it's

2:13:02

a sacrifice for the stability of the realm. No no king has lived that hasn't had to

2:13:04

forfeit the lives of a few

2:13:06

to protect the many. That's some

2:13:09

Macavallion ends justifying the means type stuff. And and

2:13:11

he's like, oh, I understand

2:13:15

your squeamishness. And this

2:13:17

is a great line here. Reluctance to

2:13:20

murder is not a weakness. And she's like, takes control.

2:13:22

She's like, I have Aegon now, and we're gonna proceed

2:13:24

at icy

2:13:27

fit. Sticking it to him. Sticking it

2:13:29

to him. We're gonna send Renira and

2:13:31

Damon terms that they

2:13:33

can accept without shame.

2:13:36

True terms. and Otto is like,

2:13:38

dude, this is not good. They're they're this is gonna mean war. If shield survives her banners, we'll

2:13:43

mass behind her. and they'll they'll, you

2:13:45

know, be ready to fight basically. And Alison's just not having it.

2:13:47

She goes through a

2:13:50

list of things are gonna

2:13:52

happen from here on out. She's

2:13:54

like Kristen Cole will be Lord commander. Aegon will be anointed tomorrow. gun

2:13:57

will be anointed tomorrow the

2:13:59

whole of Kings Landing has to witness as we see they're all

2:14:01

funnels toward the Dragon pit coming up.

2:14:03

We're gonna

2:14:04

gonna bring in bring in the

2:14:06

conquerors soared and crowned

2:14:08

to send a a signal of

2:14:10

strength. Yeah. Just

2:14:11

yet to project the

2:14:13

conquerors name,

2:14:14

the cocker's crown, the cocker's

2:14:16

sword -- Yeah. There you go. -- to I

2:14:18

mean, they have to exude strength right now.

2:14:21

I mean, Reneer is gonna fight either

2:14:23

way, but to get the people and to

2:14:23

get as many houses as they can, to to

2:14:26

follow Aegon, you

2:14:27

know, the newly voided

2:14:30

and crowned

2:14:32

king Now they have to project

2:14:34

strength. So that's what they're doing in every single way. Definitely. And

2:14:36

it's

2:14:39

like it's like a you are beaten moment.

2:14:42

It is useless

2:14:46

to resist. where Otto is just like he gives up

2:14:48

and he's just like, you look so

2:14:50

much like your mother in certain lights,

2:14:53

and Alison is disgusted by this. She seems

2:14:55

to be just generally creeped out by any

2:14:57

male sexuality at this point,

2:14:59

you know, after

2:15:01

having gone through everything and dealing with LAYRIS as we'll

2:15:03

talk about a bit later. And this is kind

2:15:06

of a there's sort of a creepy

2:15:08

sexual undertone to

2:15:10

Otto's remark here. Like, saying something,

2:15:12

comparing you to your mother. It's like

2:15:14

he loved your mother. He was attracted to your mother, probably. And so that's

2:15:19

kinda weird. But made me think also was his wife it

2:15:21

sort of implied to me that his wife

2:15:23

was probably the only other woman

2:15:25

on the planet who could win

2:15:28

an argument against him and boss him around and put

2:15:30

him in his place. He's like, you know, somebody that exactly that

2:15:32

that would put him in his place, that

2:15:34

would tell him, you know, give him the

2:15:36

business you know,

2:15:38

about whatever the situation was. And that he he couldn't really he

2:15:40

couldn't just dismiss them. His hand,

2:15:42

he has a lot

2:15:43

of power. to,

2:15:47

you know, if if somebody's in his way,

2:15:48

you know, he'll just crush them. But, you

2:15:51

know, his daughter, you know, he cares about her,

2:15:53

you know, at least a little bit Right.

2:15:55

Mainly he mainly though he cares about

2:15:57

power and he's installed his daughter as queen. He's

2:15:59

about to install his grandson

2:16:01

as, you know, to usurp the throne,

2:16:03

So nobody can nobody really stands in

2:16:06

Otto's way. You know, that's why he

2:16:08

didn't like

2:16:10

Damon. because Damon is a rogue and won't do the end

2:16:13

of the wise sage, you know,

2:16:15

conventional wisdom that Otto

2:16:17

would have, you know, the advice that he

2:16:19

would have put forth to me. So

2:16:21

now

2:16:23

that

2:16:23

Allison has won this, you know,

2:16:26

victory, you know, in who who's gonna have Aegon and who's gonna control

2:16:28

how Renira and Damon are dealt

2:16:30

with. Allison has won this and

2:16:32

has one there's and

2:16:34

she's given

2:16:35

him the business and given these

2:16:37

are gonna be the terms. This is what

2:16:39

we're gonna do. And she closes the door and, you know, he says, you wish, But,

2:16:44

yeah, I think because she

2:16:46

is putting him in his place, he's like, oh, man. She's just her mom.

2:16:48

I

2:16:53

think he was pretty impressed too by it, you know. And

2:16:55

he got beat, you

2:16:57

know, era you know, his set of

2:17:00

goons got beat by Allison and her set

2:17:02

of goons. but still pulled up. The main thing is they found the prince and

2:17:04

he's in custody and

2:17:07

he's gonna be

2:17:08

anointed in

2:17:09

Crown the next

2:17:12

day. So all the details about what's

2:17:14

gonna happen outside of that or kind of

2:17:16

what they're fighting over. Yeah. But, you know, he he

2:17:18

got beat, but he's still impressed that his daughter

2:17:21

sort of like his scene with Allison after

2:17:23

she came at Rainier with the dagger. She

2:17:25

thought

2:17:25

she was gonna be in trouble. But I

2:17:28

was like, bad

2:17:28

respect. I see you have the determination.

2:17:30

Yeah. I see you have the determination to

2:17:33

win, you know, this game of Thrones. So

2:17:35

Yep. He's he's he's definitely impressed. Yeah. And so reluctantly accepts that she's

2:17:38

in control of

2:17:41

the situation and

2:17:43

he's pitch made. Oh,

2:17:46

man. So then it

2:17:48

cuts to a scene with Laris.

2:17:50

And Alison is arriving back at her

2:17:52

chamber and

2:17:55

Lara is lurking in the background waiting

2:17:57

for her. And it doesn't seem like she

2:17:59

even notices him at first. She goes to pour herself some wine -- Yeah. -- the background. your

2:18:05

grace and it's lourdes lurking. And

2:18:07

she's like, the hour is

2:18:09

late, lourdes, like, please just leave

2:18:12

me alone. But he tells her, I think I've

2:18:14

I've found something out that you should know.

2:18:17

Have you asked yourself? I wonder how

2:18:20

is it that your father, the hand,

2:18:22

found egg on first. And I totally

2:18:24

missed this on the first watch, but

2:18:26

at this point, he sits back creeping

2:18:29

in his chair. and glaring error, intimidatingly.

2:18:31

Yeah. He gets oddly comfortable.

2:18:34

Yeah. So, obviously, this is

2:18:36

an ongoing saying -- Yeah. -- they have. She looks at her like,

2:18:38

you know what you gotta do if you want answers. You

2:18:42

know how to get them. Take them shoes off.

2:18:44

We're doing the thing. Yeah. And she looks down

2:18:46

at floor and discussed at this moment. Like, oh, god. You want me

2:18:48

to take off when she was

2:18:50

a gang. And yet, it seems

2:18:53

like it's happened before, and it

2:18:55

seems like she's being forced to

2:18:57

do it. So it's like

2:18:59

awkwardly uncomfortable as as she's being

2:19:01

manipulated and has to surrender her

2:19:04

will to Lares to

2:19:06

learn the facts here. Man, it's

2:19:08

so creepy. It's so creepy. He gives her a

2:19:10

little pieces, you know, all to the conversation.

2:19:14

and -- Yep. -- are we're we're we're

2:19:16

we're spies. There's at work in the Red

2:19:18

Keep and, you know, our business, you know, travels along this web. and

2:19:22

then he he kinda tells the tale

2:19:24

on auto. He says your father knows that this web

2:19:26

is out there and exists, but he's left it in place

2:19:31

more than once proved advantageous

2:19:33

to those willing to feed the weaver feed the weaver.

2:19:35

The spider. Yeah.

2:19:37

the spider yeah

2:19:40

I think

2:19:40

at this point, and she asked him

2:19:42

a question, you know, you know, give

2:19:44

me some more. Yeah. She says, and

2:19:46

this weaver watches me asking him, like, and

2:19:49

he asked me some more information. And he just

2:19:51

yeah. He just sits there for a minute, and she's

2:19:53

like, oh. He looks down at her friend again.

2:19:55

Like, you next step. Is this where

2:19:57

she takes the shoe off or the stocking? I can't remember. This is

2:19:59

where she takes the stockings off. Oh,

2:20:03

so, you know, it's really getting serious.

2:20:05

Yeah. He's like, one more. He goes, you know, that looks

2:20:07

down at her feet like, oh, I can't remember if you strip

2:20:12

to the next level. Oh, man.

2:20:14

More for Larry, it tells Larry, yeah. Exactly. Larry said tells him that

2:20:20

Your lady in waiting, Talia is one

2:20:22

of the spiders. Busted. Yeah. There

2:20:24

it. Yeah. Talia is busted. What's

2:20:27

her name? Yeah. they already put her

2:20:29

in in jail, but -- True. True. -- she

2:20:31

says there there are even more like her,

2:20:33

and even Lara's doesn't know how many. So

2:20:35

that was an interesting detail anybody could be

2:20:37

a silon. Oh, nope. That's battle circle.

2:20:40

Anybody could

2:20:42

be a

2:20:43

a spider. And

2:20:45

then Does

2:20:45

she do something else before he talks about? There's one way to destroy

2:20:47

his advantage.

2:20:49

Can't remember because she's at the end where she

2:20:51

finally kinda turns it. Yeah. That's because her

2:20:53

feet up on the couch and turns away -- Yep. -- total total disgust. Yeah. He continues

2:20:56

here telling her that,

2:20:58

you know, the the

2:21:01

only way to destroy

2:21:04

his advantage is to take out this the

2:21:06

the head of the the weaver, basically.

2:21:08

And he uses a metaphor like

2:21:11

AAA beehive metaphor saying when the

2:21:13

queen dies, the bees fly without purpose. And

2:21:15

he pegs he's pegging your pardon for the turn of

2:21:17

praise, your grace, because he's talking to the queen. Yeah. I

2:21:19

was like, you can't remember queen

2:21:22

dying in front of the queen. Seemed

2:21:24

in your metaphor. That's fine. So funny. And so he's she's

2:21:26

like, the and this falls within your wheelhouse like

2:21:30

you this is something you can handle and

2:21:32

he's like, if you wish it could be done

2:21:35

and I think signifying that she wants it to be done, she'd like goes to the next level of the

2:21:39

foot finish -- Yeah. -- thing

2:21:41

and, like, turns the fire zone. Yeah. because of the four the four view of the feet. Yeah.

2:21:44

And he he,

2:21:48

like, reaches into underneath his cloak

2:21:50

and starts pulling on his on his

2:21:52

little on his thing, and it

2:21:54

cuts back to, you know, so creepy

2:21:57

just staring at the feet, and it cuts back to Alison as she turns

2:21:59

her head away, and she's just, like, like,

2:22:02

disgusted by the whole situation. Well, you know,

2:22:05

like, Cersei, she's doing what she's gotta do to

2:22:07

get the answers that she needs and whatnot or

2:22:09

like Sansa. I mean -- Right. -- but, you

2:22:11

know, the he's I think he just

2:22:13

mean, obviously, you know, he's got this weird foot thing, but he

2:22:15

does it for Pie.

2:22:18

He has subjugated the queen of the

2:22:20

seven kingdoms. to his perverse, you know, will

2:22:22

to play his little game. Yeah. It's

2:22:25

gotta be a combination of those two.

2:22:27

Yeah.

2:22:27

And like I said, he don't

2:22:29

really care whether she knows all the information or not or if Adam knows

2:22:31

all the information or not.

2:22:34

He's just playing things to

2:22:36

his advantage. Yep. And, obviously, this is

2:22:38

his little you

2:22:39

know, kiki thing he likes. And the the thing that he

2:22:40

hadn't

2:22:43

gotten some head made and, you

2:22:45

know, to be weird with him.

2:22:47

This is the queen. Yeah. He's like the queen on the the domination at

2:22:49

the same time. Yeah.

2:22:52

And her position. And

2:22:54

now he has positioned himself.

2:22:57

with his whole hair and whole plot

2:22:59

to kinda have her under his thumb. Yeah.

2:23:01

It's it's interesting that dynamic change like auto has taken down

2:23:04

a peg. but

2:23:06

Larry goes up a peg and

2:23:08

seems to be elevating himself above the the queen. And

2:23:11

so interestingly, we have, like, the white worm elevating herself above

2:23:16

auto, and then we have Larry

2:23:18

elevating himself above the queen. So

2:23:20

those could be like two factions

2:23:22

that are gonna be sort of

2:23:24

battling it out. to talk about. Each

2:23:26

one, Otto and the Queen in-depth of

2:23:30

their spy master, the White Worm

2:23:32

and LARRIS. That'll be really interesting going forward to

2:23:34

see how that plays out. So then

2:23:37

the morning arrives and we see

2:23:39

each of the main players on

2:23:42

the Greens as the sun is still hovering just beneath the horizon. We're starting to

2:23:46

get a little bit of light, but

2:23:48

egg on is just chilling out eating

2:23:50

some chicken or something. Auto is standing, looking out of the window, nervously. Eamon

2:23:55

is sitting in a chair

2:23:58

contemplating everything and Alison is standing by a brochure looking all nervous.

2:24:00

a braves you're looking on nervous

2:24:03

And Reenees sits in the

2:24:05

dark as well. but all of a sudden there's a

2:24:07

commotion in the background. And it's Eric Eric.

2:24:11

Out of the line of my

2:24:13

work. Yeah. he's taking advantage of the moment. There must have

2:24:15

been just a brief time

2:24:18

period where he can get to

2:24:20

the princess. and free her.

2:24:22

And it's interesting because he

2:24:24

goes through the main door

2:24:26

to get her here here.

2:24:29

Right? out of my way is to push somebody out of the

2:24:31

way, but then he exits with

2:24:34

her through the secret tunnels. So why didn't

2:24:36

he just take the secret tunnels to enter

2:24:38

her room? Yeah. I don't know. You mean, maybe there's not any to wherever they're holding

2:24:40

trainees. Well, there might not

2:24:43

Oh, yeah. True. He've he've

2:24:45

he somehow gets her into

2:24:47

the secret tunnels Right? Maybe

2:24:49

there's no entrance into that particular

2:24:51

room. But it seems like Rainy's

2:24:53

was unaware of these tunnels.

2:24:56

Right? because he's leading the way. He must have

2:24:58

gone through the secret tunnels with Aegon in

2:25:00

knights of De Bottchery. Aegon leading the way

2:25:02

of bringing his protector with him as they

2:25:04

exit. into king's landing. But Reenees

2:25:06

seems unfamiliar with the passages as

2:25:08

they get down into the chamber where Valerion's

2:25:10

skull is, and she pauses like, holy

2:25:14

It's Polaryon, you know, and she like,

2:25:16

I love that stuff. She stops dead in

2:25:18

her tracks, and there's just like a brief moment

2:25:21

of reverence where she's looking at

2:25:24

Valerion and absorbing that this is

2:25:26

where his skull has been

2:25:27

this whole time.

2:25:38

Man, imagine how big his

2:25:40

pelvis must be. Where is that? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

2:25:42

Where's the rest of his skeleton? And this is the way they shot this scene was

2:25:47

is really, again, we see

2:25:50

the scope and the scale of a tiny human versus just the

2:25:52

head.

2:25:53

of the

2:25:55

Larry on the black trailer. VGuard is

2:25:58

huge, but, you know, I want to see the Larry on live in an action one. I'll also hopefully

2:25:59

we'll get the

2:26:04

the conquest. Yeah. If we do, I send

2:26:06

you guys that meme of of

2:26:09

some of the fan art that

2:26:11

took Henry Cavill and put him

2:26:13

in Damon's armor. with Black Fire and -- Yeah. --

2:26:15

the the the cat's pod dagger Aegon's

2:26:19

dagger and Aegon's crown and You look

2:26:21

awesome. It was egg on the contrary. It'd be it'd be great to

2:26:23

get a pretty epic

2:26:27

pretty epic casting for

2:26:28

sure. Mhmm. Be simple. So

2:26:30

Randy's mom was Jocelyn Baratheon. So she

2:26:33

I can't remember it. Randy's

2:26:35

may have grown up. at

2:26:37

storms in. Although, if

2:26:39

her was

2:26:40

Baratheon, then then her father

2:26:42

was -- Oh. -- was was

2:26:44

Jeherus one of Well well, it's Sahara she

2:26:46

was she and Vocera's are Jahara's grandkids.

2:26:51

Oh, wow. Whoever her dad

2:26:53

was. So

2:26:53

if the mom was thinking but in Franky's mom was Baratheon and Father

2:26:55

was Targaryen, she

2:26:58

probably did grow up at Kings Landing. I

2:27:00

was thinking if she grew up in in

2:27:02

storms in, then She probably almost never had the chance to use

2:27:04

or

2:27:04

see

2:27:07

any of the secret passageways or

2:27:09

to see the the bottom of

2:27:11

the red key where they keep malaria. It's interesting though, because Reneera had not seen them either until

2:27:17

Daymond showed her. And so Reneith didn't see

2:27:19

them Reneer, I didn't see them, but both Damon and

2:27:21

Aegon had were

2:27:25

familiar with the

2:27:27

passages quite apparently. Oh, and as Eric shows

2:27:30

up to save her, he

2:27:32

says an important line.

2:27:34

I cannot let this treachery stand. And,

2:27:36

yeah, they must enter the

2:27:38

secret passages elsewhere because before

2:27:40

they get in the secret

2:27:42

passages, they pass Caswell, who's

2:27:44

hanging in the nap room

2:27:46

or something. And he's been executed

2:27:48

at the met the king's

2:27:51

justice, so that sucks. and they exit. And,

2:27:53

yeah, Rainyce is like, where are we

2:27:55

as they get down to the

2:27:57

battlements? And he's like just south

2:27:59

of king's way. So this seems

2:28:02

to exit,

2:28:03

like,

2:28:05

into king's

2:28:08

landing, apparently, Yeah. He said they're

2:28:10

just south of the kings

2:28:12

way. Yeah. Interesting. Very interesting.

2:28:14

So then at this point, He's like

2:28:16

the black orders this way. We gotta go.

2:28:18

And at this point, it cuts to the

2:28:20

White Worms Villa, which we saw at the end of

2:28:22

last episode when Talia went to inform her

2:28:25

of the goings on. And this

2:28:27

time, it's it's up in flames. It's

2:28:29

engulfed. And flames are just pouring out the

2:28:31

windows. Too bad. a

2:28:34

beautiful looking place, clearly one of the

2:28:36

nicest places in king's landing. And I was wondering at this

2:28:38

point, will she think it's auto? Who should she just revealed

2:28:43

herself too. Did she did she think he's

2:28:45

trying to take her out because she was trying to leverage him?

2:28:47

Will she retaliate? So could be this

2:28:51

could end up dividing Auto and

2:28:53

the White Worm in theory, which could cancel out my idea of

2:28:55

White Worm and Auto versus Alison and Larry. But,

2:29:00

you know, who knows it'll be I'm curious

2:29:03

to see what happens as a

2:29:05

result of this. How will the white

2:29:07

worm react? She could she has

2:29:09

people inside that keep she could

2:29:11

be dropping poison in cups. You know? Like, dangerous She's terrifying. Yeah.

2:29:17

Definitely. I think Randy screw up on Dragon

2:29:19

storm. Oh, wow. Alright. So,

2:29:21

yeah, that that that could explain

2:29:23

that. and they get down to

2:29:26

the streets, and Rainy's tells Eric,

2:29:28

I won't leave Malaise, and I

2:29:30

love this, the loyalty between, you

2:29:32

know, a dragon rider and their dragon. The one

2:29:35

of the first things on her

2:29:38

mind is always malaise And I mean,

2:29:40

I guess it could just be for the the

2:29:42

nuclear factor. So they're she's saying that she wants to get to the dragon pit and he's like, no way. They'll look

2:29:48

respect to there. Plus, you won't get past the

2:29:50

gates. It's ridiculous. Look, come on, we gotta get

2:29:52

to the riverfront and find a ship. So he's

2:29:54

got, like, a really half baked plan. He doesn't

2:29:56

have a ship. It's just like we gotta get out

2:29:58

of here. This is our best bet.

2:30:02

And before they can really figure

2:30:05

out what's going on. All of a sudden, everybody's being

2:30:07

funneled in one direction and gold cloaks

2:30:10

are just pushing all the the small

2:30:12

folk through the alleys and they're like holy crap,

2:30:14

they're just caught in like a sea of people.

2:30:18

Mhmm. And they're being funneled to the

2:30:20

dragon pit, like sheep to the slaughter.

2:30:22

And we even and they get down to the streets, and tells Eric,

2:30:25

I won't leave

2:30:28

Maylies, and I

2:30:30

love this, the loyalty. between, you

2:30:33

know, a dragon rider and their

2:30:35

dragon. The one of the first

2:30:37

things on her mind is always

2:30:39

malaise And, I mean, I guess it could just be for the nuclear So there she's

2:30:41

saying that she wants to

2:30:44

get to the dragon pit

2:30:46

and he's like, no way. They'll

2:30:48

back to you there. Plus, you won't get past

2:30:50

the gates. It's ridiculous. Look, come on, we gotta

2:30:52

get to the riverfront and find a ship. So he's got,

2:30:54

like, a really half baked plan. He doesn't have

2:30:57

shipped. It's just like we gotta

2:30:59

get out of here. This is

2:31:01

our best bet. And before they

2:31:04

can really figure out what's going

2:31:06

on. All of a sudden, everybody's being

2:31:08

funneled in one direction and gold cloaks are

2:31:10

just pushing all the the small folk through the alleys.

2:31:14

and they're like holy crap. They're just caught

2:31:16

in like a sea of people. Mhmm. And they're being funneled

2:31:18

to the dragon pit, like sheep to the slaughter. And we even see if you sheep

2:31:24

pushed around to it just to

2:31:26

really hammer that home. Pretty

2:31:28

pretty poetic. Yeah. Yeah. And

2:31:31

before they know it, they're

2:31:33

separated just by the sheer mass of

2:31:35

people. And Rainyce is further ahead from Eric,

2:31:37

and he's shouting for people to get

2:31:39

out of the way. And the bells

2:31:41

are tolling and there he's unable to catch up with

2:31:44

her. And

2:31:46

then it cuts to Alison and

2:31:48

Egon who are writing in a

2:31:50

letter or as the gold quote, it a in who

2:31:54

they're shouting at

2:31:56

them. Make way

2:31:58

for the

2:31:59

royal wheelhouse. and

2:32:01

they're talking. And we had

2:32:04

this similar shot in

2:32:05

the episode with

2:32:08

the hunt. back in the day so

2:32:10

long ago at this point, where Vocera

2:32:12

is sitting on the left, where Aegon is sitting

2:32:14

now and Reneera and Allison were both sitting on

2:32:18

right. So it's like, oh, man, you

2:32:20

can see, like, how things have changed

2:32:22

since that time. Same camera angle and everything.

2:32:25

and they're discussing about what's going

2:32:27

on and how Aegon sees right through

2:32:29

this. Alison tells him, no, it was his

2:32:31

last dying wish that that

2:32:34

you should be the king. And he's

2:32:36

like, bullshit. My father never wanted this. He had

2:32:38

twenty years to name me air. He never did. He upheld Reneer's claim.

2:32:43

he could have changed his mind, but

2:32:45

he didn't because he didn't like me, which is true. Probably -- Mhmm.

2:32:47

-- because he's a little shitbag. He

2:32:51

knows the truth. There is zero

2:32:53

chance of this being true. That in his final breath, he whispered that egg gun should take the

2:32:56

throne. Nope. And

2:33:01

so she pulls out the dagger and

2:33:03

opens up a box and he's like,

2:33:05

do not toy with me mother. And

2:33:07

-- Yes. -- it's like only at

2:33:09

this point Is he does he take her seriously? Yeah. He's got on

2:33:11

his his best black

2:33:15

outfit with his

2:33:16

kinda gold dragon on it. tight. And he's

2:33:18

got his Kate. He's got his gloves. I don't know if he hasn't won't

2:33:21

hear, but at the coronation, he has on his

2:33:24

gloves. And, you know, he's in the horse

2:33:26

love, you know, be spirited

2:33:28

to the dragon pit, and

2:33:30

he still doesn't take a

2:33:33

serious like is

2:33:33

have whether you take it seriously or not, dude, is happening. Yeah.

2:33:35

He doesn't

2:33:38

comfort I mean, it's almost like he

2:33:40

doesn't comfort him that it's really happening

2:33:42

until she shows him that dagger. I had a different read on this. I I thought, like, he knows it's

2:33:48

happening. But when he sees the dagger, he,

2:33:50

for a for a moment, begins to take seriously her claim that it

2:33:54

was Aegon's wish, and the dagger

2:33:56

to him in my eyes represented, like, a

2:33:58

gesture of love from his father, something

2:34:01

that he hasn't felt in forever

2:34:03

because they've been at odds and

2:34:05

divest Harris knows he's a a shit bag like I said

2:34:07

like I said. So he

2:34:10

sees the dagger and he's like, oh

2:34:12

my my father really did. want me to do this

2:34:14

and appreciates me and loves me. And so that's what I thought at this

2:34:18

moment. And then she's telling him, you know, he

2:34:20

picks up the dagger like it's a first you

2:34:22

know, time his father's ever loved him and he's looking at it. And this is

2:34:26

what Alison's like, listen, your your your grandfather

2:34:28

the hand is gonna try to get you

2:34:30

to kill Reneera To put them to the sword, you have to reject it. We we must not rule with cruelty

2:34:36

and callousness. We we, you and me, you

2:34:38

know. And for all her faults, Reneera, as your sister, your your father's

2:34:44

daughter, you know, half sister.

2:34:46

And it's like it's all just going right past Aegon because he's thinking about the love from his

2:34:50

father and the dagger and the moment he looks up

2:34:52

to her and he's like, do you love me? You

2:34:54

know, like, I love this. She's like you imbecile, but she

2:34:58

smiles. That's just this is it.

2:35:00

Yeah. No. You imbecile. I'm

2:35:03

talking about Like, how we have to rule the seven kingdoms, prevent the war, send terms to Renaeira.

2:35:05

We're not gonna kill her because

2:35:07

Otto's gonna tell you to do

2:35:09

this and this and this and

2:35:11

this and she's like, going over this. And

2:35:13

it's like, this is why because she's

2:35:15

your sister. Vaseres loved her very much. We're not

2:35:17

gonna kill her. Okay? Yeah. Do you

2:35:19

love me? It's like,

2:35:21

You have this

2:35:22

old set up. Of course, I love you.

2:35:24

I'm putting you on the iron throne. We've done all this early in

2:35:26

the conversation. Do you know what has been done to give you this

2:35:30

say. Yeah. Like, everything that doesn't I

2:35:33

love that. I love that. Her reaction is, like, so so It

2:35:35

was like a heartwarming at the moment. Like, you know, And

2:35:40

she kinda smiles when she says that, we

2:35:42

know that she, you know, she's been very harsh with Aegon, you know, with all his depravity that she's had to cover up and

2:35:44

everything. but

2:35:48

it doesn't mean she doesn't love him. Exactly.

2:35:51

It's still her son. She still loves

2:35:53

him. But just in the moment, she's trying

2:35:55

to get him to focus on You're

2:35:57

about to be crowned, and that's what you're

2:35:59

focusing on. It's like, clearly, I

2:36:01

love you. Damon tells Vocera's in the

2:36:03

throne room when they're fighting. your word

2:36:05

is truth and law. Oh, you become

2:36:08

king. When Aegon becomes king,

2:36:10

his word is truth and

2:36:12

law. So she's trying to impress upon him. This is

2:36:14

what we need to do. Not kill right

2:36:18

now. Okay? Do you love me? She's

2:36:20

just like, That's what you're hung

2:36:22

up on. Like, it doesn't

2:36:24

even matter. You're about to

2:36:26

be kidding me. So funny. And

2:36:29

this oh, this is when

2:36:31

the the the watch captain is

2:36:33

like, Wait. Wait. From the royal

2:36:35

wheelhouse, it's like, And I'm realizing, oh,

2:36:37

so this is how you gather crowds for royal

2:36:39

announcements in Westeros. Yeah.

2:36:42

This way, you filthy peasants. Exactly.

2:36:44

You drive them with Horson and we

2:36:46

up and block off every potential avenue

2:36:49

of escape -- Literally. -- forced them

2:36:51

to a location. Literally. You're seeing

2:36:53

Hoorhees get call behind one of the royal roadblocks, and then there's some

2:36:55

horseless, you know, speeds

2:36:59

passed to citywipes. Let's her go.

2:37:01

Yep. So perfect transition. Oh, this reminds me of it's

2:37:03

like when it's

2:37:05

like Sansa and Bayless are heading north

2:37:07

on the Kings Road and Brienne and

2:37:10

R ria are kinda hiding or the hound and aria are, like, lurking nearby.

2:37:14

And they kind of, like, cross

2:37:16

paths and they see the carriage go by, I think. But, like,

2:37:19

they're just so close to to connecting, but

2:37:22

they don't. because Aria's lost at this

2:37:24

point, like, long lost. Right? Mhmm. Mhmm.

2:37:27

Mhmm. Yeah. Pretty

2:37:27

crazy. And then as soon as the royal carriage goes past, they

2:37:29

reopen the street

2:37:31

and then continue to

2:37:33

literally herd all the

2:37:36

small folk up the hill towards

2:37:38

the dragon pit. And this is when

2:37:40

Rainy Rainy's realizes that they're going

2:37:42

to the dragon pit and a look of

2:37:44

like, a smile crosses her face, and she's

2:37:46

like, yes, this is exactly where I wanna

2:37:49

go. And I have cover with among all these bazillions of

2:37:51

people, I'll be able to infiltrate and

2:37:54

and hopefully exfiltrate. Yeah.

2:37:56

Yeah. And so then it cuts

2:37:58

to outside of the dragon pit

2:38:03

and we've get a cool overhead shot of

2:38:05

the entryway and -- Yeah. -- the people funneling up and through

2:38:07

the different paths. And at this point, the small folk have given up resisting, and they're like, I guess,

2:38:13

we're headed to the dragon pit, and they're all

2:38:15

just kind of lumbering along

2:38:18

and we enter and auto is

2:38:20

telling them the situation that it's a sad

2:38:22

day. The king is dead. Vocera is

2:38:24

the peaceful. We get that that name

2:38:27

to new moniker for Vocera's again. but

2:38:29

it's also joyous joyous day

2:38:31

for as his spirit left

2:38:33

us. He whispered his final

2:38:36

wish that his first born son,

2:38:38

egg on should should succeed And

2:38:40

the crowd is kinda like, oh, like,

2:38:42

they're not really quite sure how to

2:38:44

react at this point. they stay applaud

2:38:47

and he calls the guards

2:38:49

and a procession of guards

2:38:51

arrive for a dramatic entry

2:38:53

for Aegon, forming a a

2:38:55

double two lines and crossing their me think of

2:38:57

Alison Wonderland when the

2:39:00

queen is arriving and

2:39:03

all of the the playing

2:39:05

cards have their staffs of like

2:39:07

clubs and stuff and they cross

2:39:09

them and I think or maybe I'm just hallucinating this in

2:39:12

my memory.

2:39:22

but it's so cool. Eggon comes

2:39:24

walking through and the trumpets player

2:39:26

and they sort of echo throughout the

2:39:28

pit. in in a really

2:39:30

cool, like because it's a big

2:39:32

cavernous room. Like, you know, it's huge,

2:39:35

but it has great acoustics. definitely. And

2:39:37

Otto is looking nervous at this point,

2:39:39

like, oh, no. This is really gonna is

2:39:41

it gonna happen when an egg gun comes walking through

2:39:43

on the sides. swoop

2:39:46

down behind him as he passag

2:39:49

passes each set of sword. So sorta I

2:39:51

think it's sorta, you know, kinda symbolizing we're all on

2:39:56

this journey. Like, we're past the point

2:39:58

of no return and there's no

2:39:59

going back. But that's a good

2:40:02

really good way to look at that.

2:40:04

So hang on. There's no going back.

2:40:06

For Alison and Otto, there's no going

2:40:08

back to Ramiro and Damon. There's no

2:40:10

putting the genie back in the bottle.

2:40:13

If cross the Rubicon. They have crossed the Rubicon.

2:40:15

They have anointed and

2:40:18

crowned Aegon. And you served

2:40:21

the Iron on the toothpaste. It's not going back in the tube, but

2:40:23

this this is it. This is it. Really

2:40:27

cold metaphor. It's so crazy. Yeah.

2:40:29

So you know, for Aegon, I mean, he's the king now. And even though he kinda

2:40:31

comes to embrace it

2:40:35

there before reigns, you know, ruins his moment

2:40:37

in the sun, but But

2:40:38

for everybody in the story, like, this is the point of no return. I

2:40:43

mean, there's been a lot of

2:40:45

lines in the sand, you

2:40:47

know, Allyson coming at Rainyard with the dagger at Driftmark. There's been a lot

2:40:50

of things that

2:40:52

continue to escalate

2:40:53

it, but actively usurping the

2:40:54

throne that was promised to Reenera

2:41:00

is poor.

2:41:01

So

2:41:02

yeah that kinda Yeah. That's the line. And it's, you know,

2:41:04

it's

2:41:07

a it's a cool it's

2:41:09

a cool, you know, visual thing for

2:41:11

them to do. And it's like, don't blow

2:41:12

your sword too

2:41:15

fast, manuel gives king

2:41:18

egg on a haircut. Yeah. But,

2:41:20

you know, it's pretty pretty crazy. And

2:41:22

there are there

2:41:23

are movements like, you know,

2:41:24

in drill and, you know, we in

2:41:26

the Marine Corps, we didn't reduce, like,

2:41:29

the drill instructors, like, they one guy had

2:41:31

a sword and a whole formation, and he marches around

2:41:33

with a sword. But anyway, like, when the silent droople tune, they have rifles with bay

2:41:35

nets on them. but

2:41:38

their movements for us, like, all have

2:41:40

to be perfectly in sync. And The

2:41:42

Jesse Fuller designed the drill. Nice. The marine drill stuff. He took them from being, like,

2:41:47

a mess and made him drill

2:41:49

champions. Excellent. So the the movements here, you know, with the swords

2:41:51

as far as

2:41:51

each pair, as

2:41:56

they lowered it, you know, their timings all

2:41:58

seemed pretty pretty much right

2:41:59

on. Then, like, when they march in

2:42:02

and then they turn in board and then

2:42:04

draw their swords raise him and then they they raise

2:42:06

the All reason again is one. I think

2:42:09

once he comes through the tunnel and then

2:42:11

they, like, go to sheath and they all

2:42:13

sheath them. And it's it's not perfect, but

2:42:16

it's pretty good. And I assume most of

2:42:18

those that was they had real

2:42:20

actors to that I mean, the end of the line,

2:42:22

they may have kinda filled in with CGI in the

2:42:26

background. But The crowd looked amazing talking

2:42:28

about, like, CGI to create bigger crowds. Remember there

2:42:30

was that ring of ring of power, rings of power

2:42:32

clip where they had, like, a tiny crowd of,

2:42:35

like, a hundred people and it was just --

2:42:37

Yeah. They spent a billion dollars on this show, and it's just like clusters

2:42:39

of the same people all over the place.

2:42:42

This 1II paused it. I looked

2:42:44

around. I couldn't find any duplicates. This crowd looked like

2:42:46

shit. It was awesome. A lot of them though, it looked like it's

2:42:51

like, is there no, like, middle class because

2:42:53

they all look like beggars almost. it seemed like. It's like

2:42:55

a This is a ratty brown kinda disheveled

2:42:58

looking

2:42:58

Yeah. It's the ones at the

2:43:00

front that are kinda getting glanced at. Yeah. No

2:43:02

middle class in Kingsland. I mean, there's just there's the lards, and then there's the small

2:43:06

folk who are all. Like, there's no I guess,

2:43:09

there's a middle class in the small folk. It's all

2:43:11

poverty. So it's right at this moment

2:43:11

where auto begins to speak about

2:43:14

how it's a privilege

2:43:16

and good fortune to

2:43:18

be here to witness this

2:43:20

day. you start hearing

2:43:22

the queen's green dress theme. And I was

2:43:24

like, oh, man, this is so cool. And Otto is talking about how

2:43:26

it's a new day for the realm, for the city,

2:43:31

a new king to lead

2:43:33

us and Raynius is watching

2:43:35

from the with fascination as forehead they begin the ceremony. Yeah.

2:43:41

This seeing Randy's in the

2:43:43

crowd. Like

2:43:44

Aria. Aria,

2:43:46

as she's watching

2:43:48

Ned, at

2:43:48

the seft of Baelor right before he

2:43:50

gets beheaded. At this point,

2:43:52

Aria's hair had been cut.

2:43:54

Right? Yoren grabs her from the crowd

2:43:56

and then cuts her hair right

2:43:58

after Okay. As he's walking by, he notices urine and he says, the

2:43:59

statue and urine goes and

2:44:02

sees Aria up there and

2:44:04

collects her and he's the

2:44:06

one that slices off her hair. So

2:44:08

so but when she's standing

2:44:10

on on the statue, I mean,

2:44:12

she's not as incognito as Rainy's is

2:44:14

here, but we get, you know, a

2:44:17

girl

2:44:17

or a lady in the crowd,

2:44:19

you know,

2:44:20

who is lurking and kinda see trying to

2:44:22

see what's going on and what's happening. He he handed

2:44:26

RAO was powerless to do anything about

2:44:28

it. So it's not the same as

2:44:30

Game of Thrones. And like George Lucas said, it's not history or whatever. It's

2:44:35

not the same, but it's transcribed.

2:44:37

Yeah. But

2:44:37

here, Rainy's is not powerless to change things in

2:44:39

what's going on. mean,

2:44:43

she is in the moment as she was getting pushed

2:44:45

into the Dragon pit and down the streets of Kings

2:44:47

landing. But now she's in the Dragon pit. This is where she

2:44:50

wants to be. She kinda waits and witnesses

2:44:52

and kinda looks around for a little bit and

2:44:54

sees that God and Chris is is doing the thing.

2:44:57

It's it's it's like rubbing stuff on on

2:44:59

Eggon's forehead. This may the warrior give him courage,

2:45:01

may the Smithland's strength, you know, and it's at this point

2:45:04

that Rainy's makes

2:45:06

for the dragons. Yeah. She's like,

2:45:08

I've seen enough of this. Let me go

2:45:10

let me go get my my red girl. hilarious

2:45:14

too that there's, like, no locked

2:45:16

doors between this area and the dragon. It it

2:45:18

might it's fine because the dragons wouldn't fit

2:45:23

through these small passages anyway to

2:45:25

get their human sized passages. But -- Right. -- and obviously, like,

2:45:27

nobody's gonna be stupid enough try

2:45:31

to go down there, and if they are

2:45:33

the extreme. So Yeah. Maybe they're thinking

2:45:35

is who why does a dragon need to be guarded? Yeah.

2:45:38

Like, it's it's another dragon

2:45:40

rider approaching him or

2:45:42

some other dragon

2:45:43

keeper or other Targery

2:45:45

and Valerion, you know, with the blood

2:45:47

of old Valerio. Yeah. They're

2:45:49

probably gonna get it cooked or eaten or both. So Get

2:45:51

turned into toasted tarlies. Exactly.

2:45:55

Toasted tarly's man. What

2:45:57

did you say? So so

2:45:59

yeah. So so

2:46:02

the septon Eustace, which I've hadn't

2:46:04

forgotten his name, he's featured in the boat, a fair amount,

2:46:06

I think. You know, he he anoints and basically blesses the king

2:46:11

And then Kristen is then so

2:46:14

this is is a book accurate. Kristen takes as Crown

2:46:19

and

2:46:19

kind of proclaims the crown

2:46:21

of the conqueror passed down through generations.

2:46:23

Yeah. Let the seven bear witness

2:46:25

aegon to Hungarian. Is

2:46:27

the true heir to the iron throne? For

2:46:29

sure. They have to like they have to state this out loud and public because they're usurping

2:46:32

the throne.

2:46:33

Yeah.

2:46:35

Exactly. And, honestly, all of the

2:46:37

small folk have been conditioned for the last twenty

2:46:40

years to

2:46:41

the you that

2:46:42

Raynira is the crown

2:46:44

princess. Oh, the small folk. Isn't it?

2:46:46

Oh, there if you make a song about that.

2:46:52

So and

2:46:53

I think through this, we we

2:46:55

kinda get

2:46:56

Eamon and Helena and

2:46:58

Alison all kinda their

2:47:00

kind of reactions as

2:47:03

as as coal is making this proclamation

2:47:04

the making this proclamation

2:47:06

the coal

2:47:08

puts the ground on his

2:47:10

head, and that's it. We -- Yep. -- we're, like you said, we're across the

2:47:11

Rubicon. And this second

2:47:16

that the crown goes on a gun, I feel like

2:47:18

he looks like a totally different person. Like,

2:47:21

all of a sudden, he looks pretty

2:47:23

badass. Yeah. you know, we've been kind of complaining

2:47:25

about how he looks and he looks younger than

2:47:28

Eamon and he looks like

2:47:30

Dwight shrewd. But, like, I think they cast

2:47:32

him for What

2:47:33

does he look like with with the Craig on his

2:47:35

crown? Yeah. He's because he

2:47:37

looks awesome at this point. Yeah. With the

2:47:39

white, you know, blonde platinum wig. And the

2:47:41

crown is like, okay. What does he look like

2:47:43

there? Exactly. And that's what

2:47:45

they that's what they cast for, and

2:47:47

then they don't really however he looks

2:47:50

without the crown on. It is

2:47:51

what it is. Yep. Who cares? You know, we're just trying to get to the coronation. And

2:47:56

he kinda, like, looks at each one of

2:47:58

his family members and they all kinda nod to him. What's her face?

2:47:59

Helena nods and,

2:48:01

like, turns

2:48:04

away. And Eamon,

2:48:06

like, gives a deep thoughtful

2:48:08

nod like I Eamon

2:48:10

bear. I mean, he almost doesn't

2:48:12

move up at all. I mean,

2:48:14

he's he's like almost unsuper stuffed

2:48:15

I don't wanna bow to

2:48:18

you. But, you know, I

2:48:20

at least have

2:48:21

to kinda move

2:48:22

my head a tiny bit.

2:48:25

it's a pretty nice bow. Oh, yeah. And

2:48:27

then I think when he's still he at at

2:48:30

at this point, he had stood back up. But when he he was

2:48:32

kneeling,

2:48:34

right

2:48:34

as they crowned

2:48:36

Aegon, the camera was

2:48:38

kind of from Aegon's right and Eamon's left.

2:48:41

and

2:48:43

was kinda looking pat like,

2:48:45

through the gap in between Cole and Aegon, and we were seeing Eamon specifically in

2:48:48

one shot.

2:48:48

we were seeing aim and yeah

2:48:50

physically and once shot watching

2:48:52

the

2:48:52

crown. Watching the crown, and

2:48:54

it was like it was just

2:48:57

a cool shot and what it

2:48:59

conveying to us that it's Eamon is

2:49:01

the one who really wants this. You

2:49:03

know, the one who's getting the crown. Yep. I like that too. And stands up and Kristin

2:49:08

proclaims, all hail, his grace, egg on,

2:49:10

second of his name, king of the angels

2:49:13

and the royals and the first men, lord

2:49:15

of the seven kings and the Perkin Empire

2:49:17

of the realm. And at first, nobody collapsed and it's just quiet. And

2:49:19

I'm like, oh god, what's happening? And

2:49:23

I thought I thought we were gonna

2:49:25

get a Jim Bush moment here. Please clap.

2:49:27

somebody. Please clap. Yeah. The

2:49:30

Or like in Shrek, I think

2:49:32

there's a guy with a cue

2:49:34

card appalls. Yeah. They have them at, like, Saturday night live and stuff like that too. A pause. A

2:49:39

pause. A pause. A pause is their red

2:49:41

blinking light. and the belt tolls and Kristen yells again, egg

2:49:43

on the king

2:49:46

and then the crowd starts to

2:49:48

erupt with applause. And it's at

2:49:50

this moment, where Aegon suddenly feels a rush of this approval

2:49:54

that he never got from his

2:49:56

parents coming from the crowd of

2:49:58

thousands of people around. I mean, it takes him a moment to absorb it and realize what's happening

2:50:04

before he realizes they love me. They love

2:50:06

me and he starts pumping his his sword filled fist up into

2:50:10

the air, drawing even more dramatic

2:50:12

applause. and it's like he's like a singer at a rock

2:50:14

show. He's like, oh, the right side of the crowd.

2:50:17

To the back, to the left, and he

2:50:19

pumps his fist towards different sections in the

2:50:21

crowd is like doing the wave, you know, not literally, but they're

2:50:23

they're all cheering

2:50:25

in response. He's pointing at us. He's pointing

2:50:27

at us. You know? And auto looks

2:50:30

around like it's working. They're accepting

2:50:32

him and and the last minute

2:50:34

change of plans for the air.

2:50:36

Yes. It's all coming together. And it's

2:50:38

like he egg uncraved that love and affection from his mom

2:50:41

and dad and never got it to

2:50:43

this level because he's a psycho, but

2:50:45

now he gets it amply. from the crowd and this type of positive reinforcement for

2:50:47

a psychopath could have

2:50:50

catastrophic consequences. You

2:50:52

know, you don't

2:50:54

want somebody like this to to

2:50:56

be reinforced positively to positively to think

2:50:59

that they can just do whatever they

2:51:01

want, and it's good and people

2:51:03

love it. because, man, It could it

2:51:05

could really start doing some

2:51:07

crazy stuff. We we were

2:51:09

robbed

2:51:10

a tiny bit from the

2:51:12

books. basically

2:51:13

and right after they crown

2:51:15

him, it's like the crowd is silent

2:51:18

for even longer. Mhmm. A lone voice

2:51:20

says Long lived Queen

2:51:22

Reneera or something like

2:51:24

that. Oh, shit. And then finally,

2:51:26

I think something happens and then

2:51:30

the crowd finally starts to come

2:51:32

around to Aegon. Damn. It's crazy. So

2:51:35

yeah. And then Aegon, as the crowd screams,

2:51:38

egg on stands with his

2:51:40

arms outstretched. Just basking in the glow of the glory

2:51:43

and love and affection and Alison smiles.

2:52:03

And it

2:52:08

says

2:52:10

egon is standing there

2:52:12

basking in the in trunks of

2:52:15

rock flying everywhere. of is a gaping hole. and

2:52:20

people are flying all over the

2:52:22

place as Maylies the Red Queen

2:52:26

with with rainy systride jumps

2:52:29

up through the ground and starts spinning around

2:52:31

and growling and his tail

2:52:33

is sweeping through the area and

2:52:35

through the smoke. We can see

2:52:37

people flying in every direction and falling down into the chasm

2:52:39

where they'll inevitably

2:52:42

be devoured by other dragons. Definitely.

2:52:44

That I mean, that dragon

2:52:46

pit was packed for this fact. And Maya's fact is huge. And Maya is a

2:52:49

big dragon. And she

2:52:51

just bust through the

2:52:53

floors and I

2:52:55

mean, just people everywhere. And like

2:52:57

you said, the fact she's moving and swinging,

2:53:00

she's probably crunching people with her feet. Her tail is

2:53:02

just like, whipping people like crazy. This is a complete

2:53:04

pandemonium. It

2:53:06

was

2:53:06

panned delirium. I thought we'd

2:53:08

be killed or even worse. Hundreds of people

2:53:10

were probably killed at that moment.

2:53:15

And

2:53:15

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I

2:53:18

was thinking, like, 567 hundred, maybe a thousand, maybe. It easily could be. man. So

2:53:20

brutal. It

2:53:24

is You noticed how big the doors

2:53:26

are? Super thick. So it's like I

2:53:29

mean, like, probably four or five feet thick,

2:53:31

but it's like, it's a dragon pit. it's

2:53:33

there to keep the dragons in until the dragon

2:53:35

riders are ready to

2:53:37

mount them and leave. So I

2:53:39

was like, I was like, if they shut the

2:53:42

doors I mean, Rami's will just blow

2:53:43

through them.

2:53:44

But Or will she I mean,

2:53:46

if she mailed if Miley's like, cooked

2:53:48

the doors for, like, a long time. It would

2:53:51

it would eventually met whatever, like,

2:53:53

late season's or yeah. They just

2:53:55

probably I mean, I don't know.

2:53:57

But Anyway,

2:53:58

somebody from the outside thinks it's a good idea to

2:53:59

shut the

2:54:03

doors with thousands of thousands

2:54:05

of people trapped inside with the wild drag I

2:54:07

mean, not wild, but a rampaging dragon. Yeah. Yeah. And

2:54:10

with the royal family trapped in there within

2:54:13

I was like, and I was like, No. Open the

2:54:15

doors, you fool, you know, be like, what the hell? You you end the soul.

2:54:17

You end the soul.

2:54:19

Yeah. Open the doors

2:54:21

for the love, man.

2:54:23

That's pretty funny. totally funny. And

2:54:25

it's just chaos in the swirling dust

2:54:28

and small focal flying of red. And so

2:54:30

there's there the scene doesn't necessarily

2:54:32

have best graphics

2:54:34

throughout this sequence. The the

2:54:36

the smoke and stuff didn't look really

2:54:39

didn't look quite excellent. The

2:54:42

the distance shots of Maley's, he

2:54:44

kinda looked c g, but it started looking really

2:54:46

good when he started when he when Maley's face

2:54:51

creeps up towards the the daedas,

2:54:53

towards the the royal family. And man, it was so sick

2:54:55

as spikes, like, all over him that pointed

2:55:00

out, and it looked like a a

2:55:02

dilophosaurus. And what do you think of

2:55:04

that scene in Jurassic Park where that's,

2:55:07

like, oh, wait. It's acid all

2:55:09

over the Numan's

2:55:14

face. Yeah.

2:55:20

Super crazy

2:55:26

help. And most of the time, I think Sirex too, we noticed kinda they're, like, laid almost straight back.

2:55:30

I think, like, they can kinda I don't

2:55:32

know. So -- Yeah. -- I mean, flaring my

2:55:34

email a little bit at least, you know, or a lot. It's really cool looking. I got an impression too. Pretty interesting.

2:55:36

And, like, a bird's feathers, how

2:55:38

they can kinda angle them. Like,

2:55:40

you'll pop pop up if she

2:55:43

wants and then -- Yeah. My

2:55:45

chickens do that. They'll, like, kinda ruffle

2:55:47

up. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like a

2:55:49

cat can maneuver its body to make to look weird and

2:55:52

more intimidating. But

2:55:54

so as as Maly's head, you

2:55:56

know, gets closer and closer to the day as Alison

2:55:58

jumps in front of it. But before that,

2:56:02

She tells Cole, get Helena. That's

2:56:04

her number one priority. Not the good news. She just crowd

2:56:07

in the moment of, like, absolute, peril, and danger get

2:56:12

Helena. Yeah. The innocent. So Cole is

2:56:14

beautiful

2:56:15

as ever. You know, instead of

2:56:17

jumping

2:56:17

in front of Aegon and trying

2:56:19

to slay the dragon as you know,

2:56:21

the fairy tale knight would do. He'll obey the queen,

2:56:23

get a helen out of

2:56:25

there, which they're still just standing off of

2:56:27

the side. Yeah. And, like, chunker's namesake

2:56:29

towers behind his mama. Yeah. Yeah. I

2:56:32

mean, Allison jumps in front of him,

2:56:34

but normally, you would think that you'd

2:56:36

like. No mother, you know, god,

2:56:38

mother, you know. I'll wait a dragon.

2:56:40

But Alison, you know, like Ringy

2:56:42

said, I have to credit you

2:56:44

for your poll she stares down a drag. Yeah.

2:56:47

And it's sort of like a a

2:56:51

beautiful moment that highlights the

2:56:54

the motherly devotion and sacrifice, you know,

2:56:56

like willing to die to

2:56:58

protect her young just on

2:57:01

instinct jumping in front of the child is not a child at

2:57:03

this point. But yeah. Yeah. Her

2:57:06

child. And there's like a super tense

2:57:08

moment where Like, they can tell the dragons about to

2:57:10

unleash on them and they're like, oh god. And

2:57:14

Alison closes her eyes and it's like

2:57:16

she's accepting death in that moment.

2:57:18

Yep. And then Maily's rah. It

2:57:20

starts screeching at a moment, but

2:57:23

no flames come out. Only

2:57:25

air. And this is when it looks like the dilophosaurus, like, it's

2:57:27

spitting the the the polyps and

2:57:31

all over the globe. Yeah. With this

2:57:33

spikes and stuff. so gangster. And and

2:57:35

I was I mean, I was like, this whole thing is new, but I'm like, there's there's no

2:57:37

way knowing some of what

2:57:39

happens in the future. I

2:57:41

was like, there's no way

2:57:43

she roasts them. but -- Right. Right.

2:57:45

-- she does. You know, just being from

2:57:47

team black. I'm like, oh, she gonna roast

2:57:50

them. roast them, you know, jack up, rest

2:57:52

a car. Rest a car. Rest

2:57:54

a car. Say it. Please say

2:57:56

it. But she doesn't. Everyone on

2:57:58

Team Green here almost joined Team Black if they could've been roasting both from of Black.

2:58:01

You know, they'd

2:58:04

be toasted collies,

2:58:07

toasted hotties. Crazy. And so the

2:58:10

dragon, like, closed its mouth. And

2:58:12

for a brief moment, Rainy's and Alison

2:58:14

make eye contact, and Rainy's is kinda like,

2:58:17

like, you know, I let you live,

2:58:19

you know, kind of moment. And before

2:58:21

the dragon turns around and the doors

2:58:23

are kinda closing, and Maeli's just like

2:58:25

leaps out through the door. We're like

2:58:28

we haven't seen a dragon jump before and

2:58:30

he he she whatever jumps through the door and

2:58:32

then takes to

2:58:34

the sky, leaving the

2:58:36

greens, still green instead of burnt

2:58:39

black. Yeah. Exactly. You know?

2:58:40

yeah exactly Yeah.

2:58:42

They probably needed a new

2:58:44

a new change of

2:58:46

what do they call and wear clothes? clothes. They need change a small

2:58:48

clothes. Yeah.

2:58:52

But it's cool. Like, have you seen videos of,

2:58:55

like, an owl or a Falcon,

2:58:57

like, fly between two people? And then,

2:59:00

like, pull all their wings all the way

2:59:02

back and just go through this tiny gap and then they re you know, they reopen their wings to land, like, on their

2:59:09

the handler's thing or whatever?

2:59:11

Owl's specifically have, like, these

2:59:13

blunt, like, flat ended kind

2:59:16

of wings that give

2:59:18

them hyper maneuverability in the air. They can fly between tree branches and,

2:59:22

like, really impressive stuff. And they only

2:59:24

sort of did that. she sort of jumped and then

2:59:26

kind of got through the door with her wings kinda pulled back. And

2:59:30

then she zoomed through, you know, that tight

2:59:33

little space of the of the closing door

2:59:35

And so,

2:59:35

you know, speaking of flight.

2:59:36

She got

2:59:38

routed around the group, Lokey, for

2:59:41

a TOB, where Lokey is

2:59:43

just doing laps around Dunkin'. I think she's a trick out I'll

2:59:47

hold her for trick out the

2:59:50

YouTube video. but she gets through the she gets mainly, she gets through the door

2:59:55

and opens her wings. She goes whoosh.

2:59:57

Whoosh. get some speed and get some altitude to get back out

2:59:59

of there. So epic, dude.

3:00:02

Rainey's armor was super cool. Oh, you

3:00:04

almost look like somewhere. Let's store it with

3:00:07

her dragon. So she could store

3:00:09

some people underneath her area. Some

3:00:11

people thought she put it on

3:00:13

under her, you know, day medical

3:00:15

school. But her and Eric

3:00:17

kinda got out of the keep

3:00:20

pretty quickly. You know, we we

3:00:22

presume. So I don't think she was sleeping in. Pretty quick. Yeah. I don't think she would have had

3:00:26

time to It takes, like, twenty minutes to put

3:00:28

on your hockey equipment. So it's got a day at least to have

3:00:30

a new normal. He's, yeah, way worse than that. Exactly.

3:00:35

So people online are criticizing Renee's for

3:00:37

killing hundreds of citizen civilians, but then not finishing the job and

3:00:40

killing the

3:00:42

greens. But as Alison said, just a

3:00:44

couple of scenes ago, reluctance to murder is

3:00:46

not a weakness. You know? Yeah. Plus there's all element of

3:00:52

kinslaying. Yeah. So kinda sucks. She

3:00:54

didn't fertilize everybody. But at the same

3:00:57

time, kinslaying is kind of a

3:00:59

big deal in Westeros. Right? Yeah.

3:01:01

I am kingslaying. So even though he's,

3:01:04

you know,

3:01:06

like like Lord B's to

3:01:08

Baum said he's an

3:01:10

imposter. I musta. He was still crowned and anointed as king

3:01:14

just in so Right. decide.

3:01:17

And Fracture side. No. That's

3:01:20

Fracture side is killing

3:01:22

your parents. Fracture side

3:01:24

is killing your sibling

3:01:27

or I can't remember. Anyway, I think

3:01:29

the show runner and

3:01:31

or the director or the

3:01:34

writer or somebody was saying that

3:01:36

basically, in that moment, Rainy's kinda looked

3:01:39

Allison in the eye. And even though

3:01:41

they're gonna be on the opposite sides

3:01:43

of this war, Rainy's basically, you

3:01:45

know, that's another mother and

3:01:47

with her kids. And ultimately,

3:01:50

this is not Rainey's war to

3:01:52

fight. Yeah. True. I

3:01:54

mean, she's gonna take sides,

3:01:56

but it wasn't for her.

3:01:58

It wasn't Rainey's war to finish.

3:02:00

Definitely. The people are bad that she

3:02:03

killed a bunch of innocent civilians,

3:02:05

but there doesn't seem like

3:02:07

there's any other exit you know, the ramps were

3:02:09

closed, so they they couldn't go up the

3:02:11

ramps. There's definitely no other exits around underneath.

3:02:13

So the only way out it's either she's gonna die or she has to escape and

3:02:15

just cost a

3:02:19

bunch of innocent lives to save her

3:02:21

own, I guess. You know? Yeah. It you know, sucks to be

3:02:23

small folk in Kings Landing. Yeah.

3:02:27

For sure. I mean, it's kind of

3:02:30

a brutal take on it. But, I mean, there's anything else that's just terrible. All those people,

3:02:32

you know, get killed. But

3:02:34

the only thing cooler that

3:02:36

would have made us think

3:02:38

cooler, I think, is if she had,

3:02:41

like, roasted the floor. And it was,

3:02:43

like, flames and dust, like, almost

3:02:45

exploding in the floor, you know,

3:02:47

symptom of Baylour style, Yeah. Like -- Oh. --

3:02:49

fire Just in that way, so you

3:02:51

know, fire up and out. And then, like, burst through

3:02:53

the lane that floor. Yeah. That would have been tight.

3:02:56

It was Pretty

3:02:58

awesome. Yeah. Definitely. So as

3:03:00

the doors close, finally, the episode ends

3:03:02

focused on Alison who sinks her head in

3:03:04

relief. considering

3:03:07

the implications of all that

3:03:09

has just happened with Aegon standing behind

3:03:11

her. And if there's any question in

3:03:14

his mind as to whether or not she

3:03:16

loves him. Now he knows the answer. She

3:03:19

stepped in front of a dragon to shield him. You know? pretty

3:03:22

hardcore. Anything else you wanna add

3:03:24

about this episode overall? Yeah. I mean,

3:03:26

it was just, well, I wanna ride. and

3:03:30

it just the the high

3:03:32

tower is trying to control and constrict the flow

3:03:34

of information, and they can't keep massaria from finding out you

3:03:40

know, they can't keep Rainy's,

3:03:42

you know, underlocking key in her dragon. And ultimately, it's

3:03:46

I mean, they so their plan

3:03:49

worked as far as holding the news as tightly as

3:03:51

they could for that one day. and

3:03:54

then finding Aegon and installing

3:03:56

him on the throne. Yeah.

3:03:59

But for sure, it's still all,

3:04:01

you know, their plan didn't work out

3:04:03

exactly the way they wanted because Maylies and Rainy's

3:04:05

are, you know, presumably gonna go to the to the black side team

3:04:08

black. to

3:04:11

the dark side. Jesus.

3:04:13

That's not how that's not

3:04:15

the way auto and

3:04:18

his Council of Traders drew

3:04:20

up their plan. Oh, we forgot to

3:04:22

talk about Otto rolling up joints. I

3:04:28

was at Seadrill. He's

3:04:30

doing that when, I think, before comes in,

3:04:34

and says, I won the battle. I

3:04:36

got Aegon. So I'm I think

3:04:39

it's right before that scene. Yeah. What the heck is it doing? He's he's rolling up a Raven scroll. want

3:04:44

to send it off. But he's putting wax on

3:04:46

the inside of it? Yes. I I remember you

3:04:49

said that, and I didn't sometimes I didn't

3:04:51

look for it. didn't look for it on on when

3:04:53

I watched it to set up. I mean, when I y'all

3:04:55

said that, I may have already rewatched

3:04:57

it. So yeah. I don't remember see, you

3:04:59

know, watching it in close detail to see

3:05:01

if but obviously, the wax, you know, goes on the outside and you put

3:05:04

the little stamp

3:05:06

on a stamp or sealant ring

3:05:09

or seal whatever you do to it. But even that

3:05:11

number of various knows how to Unseal

3:05:14

and reseal. Oh, yeah. The

3:05:17

reseal message. Mhmm. The tricks

3:05:19

of the trade. Exactly. there's

3:05:21

been some great memes with

3:05:24

the auto high tower, you

3:05:26

know. Probably pretty poor man.

3:05:28

Great episode. Definitely. Alright.

3:05:30

Stick with us. We'll

3:05:32

be right back after

3:05:35

a short break. And

3:06:10

now time for

3:06:14

Raven's calls. More

3:06:17

Tom of the Misty Moore

3:06:19

says, sorry if this has

3:06:21

been said beforehand, but this show desperately needs

3:06:24

comic relief. kill

3:06:26

us aitarian or braun character anything.

3:06:28

There's no humor at all to bring

3:06:30

levity to all the pain and death

3:06:33

think I'm enjoying this show overall, but

3:06:35

I'm not really sure anymore. I think we'll get

3:06:37

some something. You know, there's gotta be we mushroom

3:06:39

would have been that if

3:06:42

we had gotten some some shrimkins

3:06:44

-- Yeah. -- you know, definitely some some

3:06:46

some jets from mushroom to full. I mean, I personally I left at

3:06:51

that you imbecile. But -- Right.

3:06:53

-- if you think if you think about that from Aegon's perspective, it's pretty harsh.

3:06:55

But -- Yeah. -- it's not that weedy,

3:07:02

you know, teary teary and kind of character

3:07:04

to Maybe we'll maybe we'll get

3:07:06

something I don't know. I think

3:07:08

Damon's funny. We just didn't have any

3:07:11

Damon this episode, you know? Yes. Yes. Some of his, you know, cracking

3:07:16

up during Elena's funeral. are

3:07:19

you googly. You googly. I

3:07:21

mean, it's like it's

3:07:23

like inappropriate funny. Like,

3:07:25

You can't be laughing right now. True. And, like,

3:07:27

I'm laughing at

3:07:29

hilarious, you know, but it that's

3:07:32

always inappropriate too. Maybe I'm just

3:07:34

sucking the head. Thank you, Lord Tom. Always good to hear from your brother. Hope all is well in

3:07:40

the Misty Moore. Sir Matthew of

3:07:42

House Rapping, says here we are at the precipice of Civil War and the penultimate episode of

3:07:44

the first season of the

3:07:47

of House of the Dragon.

3:07:49

With King Viceras gone, Auto Waste

3:07:52

no time in putting his well laid

3:07:54

plans into motion. Poor daughtering old master

3:07:56

of coin, Lord Biesbury comes to

3:07:58

his senses just in lines drawn

3:08:04

not only amongst the Targaryens, but

3:08:06

between House Cargill as Eric realizes what a monster egg on can be and

3:08:11

splits from his brother Eric and

3:08:13

tries to smuggle princess Reneas out of king's landing, little did he realize that the

3:08:15

queen who wasn't and Malaise the Red

3:08:18

Queen had things well

3:08:21

under control. Misaria's quote

3:08:24

about power, There is

3:08:26

no power, but what we allow

3:08:28

you to take is very similar to

3:08:30

Verus' power resides where men believe it resides. It's a trick.

3:08:35

a shadow on the wall, and a

3:08:37

very small man can cast a very

3:08:39

large shadow. Both believe that it is a small folk that give the kings their power and

3:08:44

use their treasury to help the common

3:08:46

people. Good point. Good good connection there.

3:08:48

I like that. I would try to

3:08:51

make a laris joke but I'm afraid

3:08:53

I would get off on the wrong foot.

3:08:55

But to Oh,

3:08:58

nice. classic. Thank you, sir

3:09:00

Matthew. Great to hear you. Lady

3:09:02

Mary Patricia of House DeRigo says, Alison

3:09:05

standing up to her

3:09:07

dad, nice. Larry's had

3:09:09

a foot fetish, whatever

3:09:12

float shirt. Whatever floats your boat, man. Aegon is

3:09:14

throwing some serious joffrey pods. Oh, yeah.

3:09:16

I think she means at the end

3:09:18

when he's kinda getting high on power.

3:09:20

Yeah. Crazy. is a sick

3:09:22

badass. I love her. Husband thought it

3:09:25

was a slow episode, but the tension

3:09:27

just kept building and building So

3:09:29

much tension. So much tension. Good

3:09:31

to hear from you. Ladies

3:09:34

and Mary, thanks for writing and and

3:09:36

Lord Joey of How's Pool posted

3:09:38

a picture of the guy leaning

3:09:41

out from behind the tree, licking

3:09:43

his lips, like like he's eager

3:09:45

and the caption says Lara

3:09:48

strong thinking about Alison's feet

3:09:50

again. Oh, man. So brutal. Definitely.

3:09:53

And we have a

3:09:55

voicemail from Lord from

3:09:58

archmaaster stitches. Sir Duncan, Lord, Zach,

3:10:01

archmaaster stitches from the siren aisle

3:10:03

here. Yo. Well, I'm gonna say,

3:10:05

man, you gotta see this episode was

3:10:08

just not as gripping without

3:10:10

team Reneera involved. You know, not

3:10:12

having -- Yeah. -- came on

3:10:14

and Reneera in the episode. It it felt a little more one-sided.

3:10:19

Zach is a great deal because

3:10:21

not my favorite. Definitely not battle the bastards or some of the other episode 9s we've had

3:10:23

throughout the original series. but

3:10:29

definitely not the weakest

3:10:32

episode. And better and

3:10:34

better with the differences

3:10:36

from the book to make

3:10:38

shows doing. I think what they're they're

3:10:43

doing with the

3:10:45

white warms, motivations for what's gonna happen, which

3:10:47

is a massive spoiler, so

3:10:50

not gonna go into that, but

3:10:52

it's coming And I I think

3:10:55

that Helena's demon of the

3:10:57

boards, a lot of people

3:10:59

would think, well, that's probably

3:11:02

just Renee's breaking through the the ground, which it could be

3:11:05

to to do this awesome scene we

3:11:07

saw in this episode, but I think

3:11:10

it's tempting more towards something else. Oh. That's all I can say about that, Reneesh. But

3:11:15

Reneesh, man, she could have saved,

3:11:17

like, HBO at a ton of money, you know. She coulda

3:11:19

just roasted the whole council there. And yeah.

3:11:22

The team Blackwood just

3:11:25

won him when a

3:11:28

fell swoop. Yeah. But I think and

3:11:30

you all might have already talked about this,

3:11:32

but I think it's got to do more with this

3:11:34

was finally something in her control that she could

3:11:37

choose what happens instead of the

3:11:39

being chosen for her by the

3:11:41

people and all that kind of stuff. Interesting. Man, I noticed in the opening that

3:11:44

viserus symbol filled

3:11:48

with blood. So I thought that was

3:11:50

cool. Yeah. And some changed stuff. And it went down. And you could see from

3:11:55

the high tower of Allison's little

3:11:57

sigil in the opening that there was four So

3:12:00

did hint at

3:12:03

I can't hear you. Dark hand

3:12:05

or Dan Con or something like this. Yeah. work good. That's good. That's good. That's good. the

3:12:08

baby. I

3:12:13

don't think he'd even be a baby at this point. Yeah. Probably

3:12:15

not. But yeah, man. Again,

3:12:20

not as all over the places

3:12:22

as I would hope it would have been was very concentrated.

3:12:25

I felt like the whole thing was

3:12:27

kind of like a a wears wool

3:12:29

although finding Aegon episodes, which in the middle of

3:12:31

the season might

3:12:34

have felt a little better, but

3:12:36

being a penultimate, I was a

3:12:38

little disappointed in that. god. I still hate Aegon. Fuck this guy. Yeah. with

3:12:40

filed teeth and their

3:12:42

nails sharpened and stuff

3:12:44

like that with, like,

3:12:46

how sajoules on their back

3:12:49

like, fighting in a pit. Sounds

3:12:51

crazy. But then there we

3:12:53

go. The high towers,

3:12:55

you know, just already breaking their I say, I

3:12:58

mean, they still could put into the fighting

3:13:00

bits, but I doubt it. But they

3:13:02

they burned the White Worm's mansion there. So

3:13:04

I don't think they're gonna stay true

3:13:06

their word. And I felt really bad

3:13:08

though, you know, for Allison, you

3:13:10

know, guys, The the book makes it seem like she's so involved with all

3:13:14

the archiving and everything that's going on

3:13:17

with her council, and you can see

3:13:19

that she wasn't privy to most of it. And she's actually upset that, you

3:13:22

know, they're that they're just continually just using

3:13:25

her more and more as a on. Maesters game.

3:13:27

any father's game, and the lannisters are all

3:13:31

involved and everything. So Dave

3:13:33

lannisters. But I did hear that all those

3:13:36

prescreeners that go out of

3:13:38

all these YouTube channels and stuff

3:13:40

like that, that none of those

3:13:42

went out for this final episode. So -- Oh. -- which is cool. Yeah. And

3:13:46

then just we'll get to experience it with

3:13:49

the whole world. And I think something big is gonna

3:13:51

be coming if they're not gonna you know, something that's

3:13:56

not in the books. Like this

3:13:59

whole Rainy's face off with the the king's coronation

3:14:03

and all others game

3:14:05

in the Lannisters or

3:14:07

all involved and everything. So Damn ministers. But

3:14:11

I did hear that all

3:14:14

those pre screener that go out to all these YouTube channels and stuff like that, but none

3:14:19

of those went out for this final

3:14:21

episode. So Oh. Which is cool.

3:14:23

So it's just we'll get to experience it with the whole world. And I think something big is gonna

3:14:25

be coming if they're not

3:14:27

gonna you know, something

3:14:29

that's not in the books.

3:14:31

Like, this whole rainy's face

3:14:34

off with the the king's coronation

3:14:36

and all that in the dragon

3:14:38

pit. None of that's in the book.

3:14:43

So that's really if they're gonna

3:14:45

do something like that, only even larger, then I'm good

3:14:47

because, like, the I can't remember something I have, but the ball kingsguard

3:14:52

guy. I think he dies way early on in

3:14:54

the book and he's not dead right now. So I

3:14:56

believe he's gonna do, like, embarrassed and sell me, it

3:14:58

looks like. Oh. Yeah. Go to

3:15:00

real estate. it seems

3:15:02

I don't know. Again, that's all uncharted territory, which I love. Again,

3:15:07

better and better differences between the

3:15:09

book and the show. The show is just so much

3:15:11

cooler and I'm ready for next week. Alright.

3:15:16

Great to hear from you.

3:15:18

Archmaaster stitches. Always get great feedback. Awesome feedback. And, yeah, a little bit

3:15:23

less crazy than I expected the penultimate

3:15:25

to be as well. But it was gripping in its own

3:15:27

in its own way. tension was super

3:15:31

thick. So I ended up really

3:15:33

liking it a lot. And I

3:15:35

forgot to mention just how much I love design of Maley's,

3:15:39

the Red Queen, Renee's dragon, red with

3:15:41

little white spots and stuff. It's just just a really cool looking

3:15:44

dragon overall. Really

3:15:50

awesome. Alright.

3:15:56

Allison, you know, is

3:20:47

a. So basically, What's

3:20:51

the, like, the law of

3:20:53

privacy? That's a different thing, but I was trying to think of

3:20:55

a smart thing to say. Just

3:21:00

just to go going to

3:21:02

get my Ours. No. Nothing

3:21:05

to see here. You know,

3:21:07

the little boy. there was

3:21:09

the Batman, a wreck, Eric. Eric.

3:21:11

I thought for a moment there might

3:21:13

be a dragon sitting on the

3:21:15

other side. Oh, that would be crazy. Let

3:21:17

go for me. And I think as as

3:21:19

their carrying him off, he says, do you

3:21:22

know who I am? It's always it

3:21:24

always cracks me up when people

3:21:26

drop that line. It's like It doesn't matter. You're in Yep. didn't get

3:21:32

Try my majority of his

3:21:35

peers. Yeah. Probably not. And if

3:21:37

he can't get more feet

3:21:39

seasoned, Maybe he would be upset. You

3:21:41

might be loyal to them stinking feet. He has died and y'all are up to no good. Y'all are up to

3:21:44

no good. It's,

3:21:49

like, the first time I've ever said y'all out loud,

3:21:51

I think. Nice. Allison,

3:21:54

you know, has the right of this

3:21:56

She has the the temperament and thought process of,

3:21:58

you know, counting the cost of her people,

3:22:00

you know, more than, you know, most rulers

3:22:02

do. She's obviously way better fitted than Aegon

3:22:04

would be. Get out of here. I may only

3:22:06

be a young girl without knowing the ways of war.

3:22:10

Oh, yeah. RIP man.

3:22:12

RIP Roger Therese, is

3:22:15

so awesome. some. Yeah. She has people in the in the keep, you know, like are flying

3:22:17

around. Everybody's at

3:22:20

danger if if

3:22:23

massaria is angered. Alright. I gotta

3:22:26

go look. Oh, wow.

3:22:28

Yes, sir. Sounds good

3:22:30

by that. Stop recording here.

3:22:32

stop recording. Alright then.

3:22:35

Nice. Actually, not honest.

3:22:37

What the hell? You

3:22:40

know I'm fucked in

3:22:42

the head. Eric is

3:22:44

the one that goes

3:22:46

black and never goes back. You

3:22:48

know what you gotta do

3:22:50

if you want answers. You

3:22:53

know how to get them.

3:22:55

Take them shoes off. we're doing

3:22:57

the thing. This is where she takes

3:22:59

the stockings off. Oh, so, you know,

3:23:01

it's really getting serious. Out of

3:23:04

my way, I will not let

3:23:06

this trickery stand. T

3:23:09

trickery. The greens

3:23:11

are progress. Totally. This way, you

3:23:13

filthy parents. Exactly. You drive them

3:23:16

with horses and whip. It's weird to

3:23:18

talk about poop in terms of favorites.

3:23:21

But bird poop is the best poop

3:23:23

because it doesn't stink at all. You know,

3:23:25

and it just woop. Wipe it up and

3:23:28

it's gone. favorite poop.

3:23:31

Yes. Exactly. My

3:23:33

favorite. My favorite

3:23:36

poop. Nest So

3:23:38

they're really, really making Allison, like, Cersei,

3:23:40

in terms of the music. That's what the music is telling

3:23:42

us that these characters are, like, parallel characters This

3:23:48

is Rainey's ring

3:23:51

in the bell.

3:23:53

Mainly sorta did

3:23:56

that. she sort of jumped and then kind of got

3:23:58

through the door with her wings kinda pulled back.

3:24:01

And then she zoomed through, you know, that

3:24:03

tight little space of the of the closing

3:24:05

door. And so he has to get a

3:24:08

flight. He go around and

3:24:10

grab the room. Lokey for a

3:24:12

POB where where he is just

3:24:14

doing laughs around Dunkin'. I think she's a jerk out. It all splice
