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

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.

3:19:56
Season one episode nine,
3:19:59
the group council. This
3:20:02
is a little,
3:20:04
like, since I don't like the green.
3:20:06
To go up. You know, the
3:20:10
green calendar. Wow. Volume counselor.
3:20:12
Wearing little black boots slow it
3:20:14
a little leather boot little little little leather boot. If
3:20:20
Allison, you know, is
3:20:23
as Pure as a wind driven snow as you like to think. I know. If I knew to
3:20:25
say, dude, I wrote
3:20:28
all the names down.
3:20:31
That's machining. Miskini plotters. applying
3:20:33
schemers circling nuts. Billing
3:20:36
in for me today
3:20:38
is the tweet. Nice. And thunderously rolls.
3:20:40
And Give

As the Canadians would say, beauty
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

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
