Alright. Welcome back to Game of Microphones

1:04

for part two of our average of House of the Dragon

1:06

season one episode nine, The

1:09

Council. We had just left

1:11

off with Alan Kaswell as he

1:13

was grabbed from his horse during his

1:15

attempt to flee the Red Keep.

1:18

Where were we exactly? They

1:21

were pulling Casselow off the horse

1:24

as he was trying to I was saying as the gate opened

1:26

up, I was like, oh, what if there's a dragon on the other side.

1:28

Right. They wanna say, yeah. They pull

1:30

off his horse and he say, good off me. Do you

1:32

know who I am? And

1:35

then we don't see Lara Strong

1:37

in the scene, but this script

1:39

credits him with saying, he was fleeing

1:42

from the gate. if I So maybe

1:44

that's the next thing. Yeah. Yeah. Okay.

1:46

We hear that before possibly.

1:48

I'm not sure. Before we just visual.

1:51

Yeah. Maybe. Anyway Yeah. I think

1:53

so.

1:54

And, Larry, you know,

1:56

thinks he knows, you know, that what Casper

1:58

was up to, a warning for the princess. I'd

2:00

wager, and then Otto

2:03

tries to get him to confess. What

2:06

say you?

2:07

I love that phrase. What say you What

2:09

say you Ereborn says that

2:11

when he's summoning the

2:13

the demon army.

2:15

The demon army or the ghost army after

2:17

you have a name.

2:18

and return of the king. Yes.

2:21

Some of you to fulfill your oath. I

2:23

some of you to fulfill your oath.

2:26

Fight for

2:27

me. and

2:29

I will hold your rose fulfill.

2:36

What's saying?

2:39

ah

2:41

What's saying you so bad?

2:44

And here we get Larry's title, Lordaeron

2:46

feather. So does that mean that he's

2:49

is that AKA royal torturer?

2:52

Yeah. I think so. Yeah. Oh, man.

2:56

That's why he's got access to the black cells

2:58

and stuff. because remember we're we're thinking he had to

3:00

have some position official

3:02

position that gave him that type of

3:04

back -- Yeah. -- ground -- Access to

3:06

the black sales.

3:07

Access to the black sales. And

3:10

also, it's

3:12

an official position at king's landing that

3:14

keeps him there and not Right.

3:16

Yeah. Exactly. His, you know, his

3:18

seat.

3:20

True. True. True. True.

3:22

Lord the Lord confessed her presumes.

3:24

So

3:25

Caswell says that? Yeah. I think so.

3:27

Lord. He's like, I have no love

3:29

for the princess. Oh,

3:31

then where were you going with such urgency?

3:34

I was just going to get some ice cream. We've

3:36

got to return some video Yeah.

3:38

Would have been, like would have been, like, oh, you had pressing

3:40

business down at the doctor? I mean, come up with

3:42

some excuse, but he just he doesn't even The

3:45

whole time you're getting dragged there, he didn't think of

3:47

something? Right?

3:48

He I was like,

3:49

I wasn't urgent. I just hopped on my

3:52

horse and was ready to go for a stroll.

3:54

Okay. I mean, they're gonna

3:56

they're gonna string you up anyway, but I'll

3:58

try to come up

4:00

with some kind of excuse, you know, to

4:02

maybe they'll buy off on it. But anyway,

4:04

let the king's justice take him.

4:07

Oh, god. So by the king's justice,

4:09

do you think they meant Larry's or do you

4:11

think they meant, like, the death penalty?

4:14

Yeah. I'm just

4:16

looking to mean like

4:18

I mean, yeah, it's the death penalty.

4:20

Like, when they say, let the king's justice.

4:22

I think they use that phrase when they head

4:24

and head. Right. You can receive

4:26

the king's justice. Yeah.

4:28

if that's, like, automatically death or if

4:31

that's just, like, let the justice

4:33

system take care of him.

4:35

You know what I mean? I don't know. Yeah. I mean, that wasn't

4:37

really quick sure either. Cool

4:40

line. Yeah. We see him see him

4:42

hanging the next morning as Rainyce

4:44

makes her escape. Yeah. But

4:47

probably didn't get a

4:51

trial by the jury of his peers.

4:53

Yeah. Probably not. Is

4:55

that a change from the books? I've listen

4:57

to the impression that it's too far. I'm not sure.

4:59

I haven't gone back and looked. I haven't since

5:01

yesterday, I haven't heard anybody

5:03

talk about if if that is the

5:05

same fate he meets in

5:07

the book or not. I mean, I'm sure he dies

5:10

because, you know, who doesn't

5:11

exactly. Everybody

5:14

does. But I don't remember if

5:16

he's hanged at the Red Keep or something

5:18

else. I'd heard somewhere that he went

5:20

and joined Reneera, so maybe a slight

5:22

change from the books. Interesting.

5:24

Yeah. Well, I made an example out

5:26

of him. Yeah. And where as they may take the other

5:28

people captive to try to sway their houses.

5:30

They killed this one. So maybe the other houses can

5:32

be swayed and convinced to

5:34

join the Greens, but the fact

5:36

that this caswell is killed

5:38

may push the caswell house

5:40

toward the blacks?

5:42

Definitely.

5:44

So he yeah. That's pretty messed up,

5:47

but he's dragged away kicking and screaming.

5:50

They drag him out. And he's like, look, told me,

5:52

this is not right. Yeah. And then

5:54

he's dragged off to the to the hangman's

5:56

noose presumably. Yeah. And yeah.

5:59

Auto

5:59

Auto tells Larry's

6:01

that that he did well. Only

6:03

my duty. Only

6:05

my duty. And

6:08

now here, Alan is still great streaming

6:10

and yelling, who do you think you are? And

6:13

then when we we learn that

6:15

auto knows that Laris

6:18

and Allison

6:19

had been

6:20

talking a lot lately. He's been many hours with

6:23

the queen of late, and then

6:25

Larry says he's like perfectly ready for

6:27

this. Like, he hasn't

6:29

covered his tracks so much that nobody

6:31

should know that he and Alison

6:33

are meeting and talking, but you

6:35

know, he's he just kinda turns it around and says,

6:37

you know, I can make this work for you

6:39

too. Double agent. So

6:42

he's -- Exactly. -- my question is, is it gonna

6:44

be a double agent for

6:46

for auto, sneaking

6:48

information for Alice from Allison, or is

6:50

he gonna be a triple agent, tricking

6:52

auto into piece of the equation. He's

6:54

a double agent. Yeah. And then

6:56

really doubling again. Yeah.

6:58

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

7:01

both Allison and Otto. Yeah. So Anato

7:03

thinks he's kinda got him pinned here. It's like, what have

7:05

you been doing? Spending all this time with the queen?

7:08

And he's just ready to just turn it

7:10

around and, like, oh, I'm doing it for you.

7:12

you know, we can learn, you know, this, this, and this

7:14

about what the Queen's doing. Yeah. All the information

7:16

is at your disposal. Exactly.

7:18

He's he'll tell Otto what he thinks

7:21

auto needs to know. And

7:23

he'll tell Alison what he thinks Alison

7:25

needs to know. And he'll

7:27

withhold information. I think this is me, my

7:29

what I think, Larryis is really up to. Yeah.

7:31

Very bullish of him. Yeah. He

7:33

withhold information when it'll

7:36

benefit him for them not to know something.

7:38

Yeah. That sounds about right. He's not loyal to anybody but

7:40

himself, I don't think. Yeah. That makes

7:42

sense. Although, he does seem

7:44

to have a thing for Alison's feet,

7:46

And if you can't get more feet seats,

7:48

maybe you would be upset. You

7:50

might be loyal to them, stanking

7:53

feet more than ever else. I mean,

7:55

Adam has me too. Oh,

7:59

god. Maybe his tastes

8:01

are less discriminating. clearly.

8:08

Oh, man. I think here we we

8:10

go to the the Silent Sisters wrapping

8:12

the Sarah's body. Yeah. I loved how they

8:14

had those, like, banners sticking up on

8:16

two poles from their backs. Yeah.

8:18

They were like that. In the original show, as

8:20

an interesting nice cop stamp design.

8:22

Yeah. I think George will start with

8:25

that into Eldon Ring also.

8:27

I seem to remember potentially

8:29

catching up with a video game having that similar

8:31

type of thing. But I may be wrong about that. Maybe I'm

8:33

just remembering Game of Thrones. But,

8:36

yeah, Allison is looking positively bereft

8:40

as the side of the series are wrapping up

8:42

the series. And it really

8:44

she's really upset. Yeah. And this is what lends me

8:46

to think that she really did love Viceris

8:48

on some level. And I think that

8:51

her choosing to

8:53

back Agon is out of loyalty

8:56

to Viceris largely because she knows

8:58

Aegon is a fuck stick, you know? And

9:00

she'd underslink she slapped the shit

9:02

out of him last episode. and

9:04

knew that he was a monster for being a

9:06

pedophile rapist and

9:08

violating Diana. And

9:11

so It's hard for me to imagine that she would

9:13

willingly back him. Sure.

9:16

She's he's her son, but I think it's that

9:18

loyalty to Viceris that

9:20

she really does wanna fulfill his dying

9:23

wish, you

9:23

know.

9:25

And she looks so sad here. Really

9:27

great acting by Allison. but Yeah.

9:29

Olivia Cook has has been really good

9:31

throughout. She was very very good this

9:33

episode and, you know, all kinda different scenes,

9:35

this upcoming scene with her and

9:37

rainy season. She was really good. this

9:40

sad sad scene when she

9:42

wakes up in the bed and she's upset when she

9:44

first learns that the series is died and then here

9:46

when they're prepare in his body. She

9:48

seems really upset. Yeah.

9:50

Yeah. Powerful. She's yeah.

9:52

She's a very, very good actress.

9:54

Definitely. Yeah.

9:56

So rainy's door unlocks

9:59

and in comes

9:59

the queen. And

10:01

Reinees doesn't even wait for

10:03

any kind of explanation. He sort

10:05

of goes on the attack. Due

10:07

to the considerable courtesy, I'm assuming,

10:09

there was a good reason for the outrage of

10:11

my treatment here this morning. I see

10:13

serious regrets for ceremony.

10:16

And they kinda there's this

10:18

pause and they kinda look at each other

10:20

and Randy's basically figures

10:22

out. There's only one reason. The keep would

10:24

be she saw people getting herded

10:26

and locked down earlier. she's

10:28

logged down. It's like, oh, the king

10:30

has died, and they're

10:32

controlling everything. Yeah. Everybody's

10:34

movements to split control. controlling

10:36

the flow of information. And

10:39

so, Rainy's just says, the king,

10:41

the king, you are usurping the

10:43

throne. Actually, he knows the king has died,

10:45

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

10:47

so you could figure out that they are

10:49

if there was just a normal if

10:51

the series died and they would Ravens

10:53

would fly to every corner of the realm to a blue

10:56

dragonstone. Every narrow and

10:58

normally. Exactly. Raynarrow

11:00

would come to king's landing. the

11:03

crown, you know, so on and so forth. Yep. But all

11:05

this suspicious activity is like,

11:07

he has died and y'all are up to

11:09

no good. Y'all are up to no

11:11

good. That's, like, the first time

11:13

I've ever said y'all out loud, I think.

11:15

Nice. You

11:18

know, Allison, you know, tries to

11:20

explain to her, oh, my husband's dying

11:22

wish. And Rami's wants to

11:24

know part of those things. He's like,

11:26

poached shit.

11:29

Exactly. No sense, man. And

11:31

then but Allison is kinda pragmatic.

11:33

It's like, whether you believe it or not, you know, it

11:35

doesn't matter because this

11:37

is happening. Yeah. Aegon will be.

11:39

Aegon will be king. Man,

11:43

that's like like Rami said.

11:45

or

11:45

no? To

11:46

see oh, she

11:47

says it right here in a second.

11:49

Allison says, I need your

11:52

support, you know, support.

11:54

Hey, Don. And Raines is like, well, I gotta give

11:56

it to you. You got balls. I

11:58

like balls.

12:00

Yeah. And Raines, it's interesting she went from

12:02

being overlooked as queen

12:04

to being, like, pushed to the background

12:06

by Corolus who is obsessed with ambition

12:08

and ignoring Reneus'

12:10

will and desires to keep lean

12:12

ore out of it and to forget the ambition

12:15

of the throne. And now all of a

12:17

sudden, she's being, like, courted

12:19

by both sides. Ray Nira is asking

12:21

for her support. Vicerois

12:23

is asking for her opinion at court

12:25

the prior day. Allison is coming to

12:27

her asking for her support.

12:30

That was another thing too. We didn't mention

12:32

the last podcast, but Raymond

12:34

was the only one who told her, like, I don't

12:36

need your support. you know? And

12:38

so when it came to the court scene

12:41

with where she had to choose a side, she was

12:43

like, oh, Raymond, you said you didn't need

12:45

me. So, you know, fuck you,

12:47

but watches the the blacks. Nice.

12:50

Yeah. That's true. And and, I mean, so Corolla

12:52

is still hurt. because okay.

12:55

Yeah. We can just kinda I guess, go into

12:57

that.

12:57

Allison tries to

12:59

downplay, you know, what what is

13:02

what is the what have the valerians gained?

13:04

Yeah. By siding with Reneera

13:06

being allied with Reneera this this

13:08

whole time. Death, death, death, and

13:10

and, you know, injury. Laina,

13:12

you know, dad, all the woman, Santos.

13:15

Turn right near

13:17

a turn her son, you know, into a cock.

13:20

Yeah. Do you know where that word comes

13:22

from cuckled? No.

13:24

It's it comes from the cuckoo bird, which

13:26

is known to trick other species of

13:28

birds into caring for their offspring by

13:30

laying eggs in the nests of other birds.

13:33

And then they go, because they don't have to

13:35

do any of the work. and the unsuspecting,

13:37

you know, finch or

13:39

whatever where Robin.

13:41

Yeah. Crazy.

13:43

Crazy. you know, she says Reneera's

13:45

errors, you know, talking about the valerian boys,

13:47

the strong boys, you know. None of

13:50

her errors aren't yours. And

13:54

Allison sort of speaks ill of

13:56

of Corless, you know, as your husband who

13:58

grasped so aimlessly at the throne.

13:59

And we know this because of the stations

14:02

between Rhaenys and

14:04

Corless. Rhaenys tries to get her to drop it.

14:06

Just leave it alone. I've given it up only

14:08

aren't thrown. Let's live our life on

14:10

drift mark and be content.

14:12

Yeah. We have a cast Orla Orla

14:15

still wants to kinda continue to press the

14:17

issue. So Alice sent you know,

14:19

has the right of this, you

14:21

know, their their chorless and brainy's kinda

14:23

relationship with him. Yeah. And

14:25

he and even he has abandoned you

14:28

gong six long years to fight a desperate battle

14:30

returning previously. It's not mortally

14:32

wounded. So cordless,

14:35

And it's just just one day has passed since

14:37

last episode. So So this is a moment always.

14:41

Right.

14:41

And

14:42

they said, this is what you

14:44

at the beginning of last episode, that he

14:46

will get back to driftmark in three days.

14:48

Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. That's a surprise. So

14:50

he's still let's say his fate is

14:52

still unknown. I was thinking, oh, he should be better by now.

14:54

And I was like, oh, no. We're just we're in the

14:56

next day. The service just died the night

14:58

before. Six year time jumped

15:00

to, like, two days or three episodes.

15:03

Yeah. So, you know,

15:05

his fate, you know, is still unknown.

15:07

I mean, it was as far as, you know, what's gonna

15:09

happen of his wound -- Mhmm. --

15:11

leaving the lady of Driftmark to chart

15:13

her course along. I love that. How did

15:15

she use like oceanic terminology for

15:17

the Lady of Driftmark since they're a seafaring

15:20

House. And so she -- Yeah. -- says the Lady of

15:22

Driftmark Court. Short her Coruscone. Yeah.

15:24

Great. great logistics there. Yeah.

15:26

Very, you know, good writing. You know, the scene

15:28

is really well done. She says their

15:30

house the words of house for Larry on

15:32

are not Nicole. Yeah. This is it.

15:34

I like that word. Yeah. She

15:36

kinda kinda walks off and goes over

15:38

to the window, I think, here. Yep.

15:41

And then Alison calls her dear cousin.

15:43

I was like,

15:44

that she

15:45

was vocerus cousin. He

15:48

don't. Like, it kinda annoys me

15:50

sometimes when people try to, like, assume

15:53

the relationship of,

15:56

you know, a significant

15:58

other, you know, it's like I

16:00

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

16:02

and Rainy's are not close It

16:04

would be like She's a cousin in

16:06

law type of thing. So good cousin

16:08

would've would've applied. I guess so.

16:10

But she's just like, oh cousin

16:12

trying to, you know, play on a

16:14

familiar relationship. I'm like,

16:16

yeah. Rainy's and

16:18

Vocera's were cousins. Like, you are a

16:20

high tower. from Old Town.

16:22

Get out of here. Allison

16:26

tells her, you know, you know more than anybody, more

16:28

than anybody alive, what I'm about

16:30

to say, And Allison kinda drops

16:32

a bomb. And I when she said

16:34

this to my day, I did not think

16:36

Allison would admit this. I

16:38

love my husband, but I will speak the truth as

16:40

we both know it. You should

16:43

have been queen. Rainy's is like,

16:45

what? Yeah. We Rainy's

16:47

and us were all like, Oh, man.

16:49

A little thought to

16:51

hear such words from you.

16:54

Allison says the iron throne was yours by

16:56

blood. and by temperament. Yeah.

16:59

So you had the right and the character

17:01

for it. I mean, the series had a pretty good

17:03

temperament as far as I'm trying to

17:05

keep the peace, but he didn't

17:07

have the decisiveness, I guess, to

17:09

to deal with things in

17:11

the here and now that needed to be dealt with. And to, like,

17:14

handle all of the variances, like, he would keep it

17:16

keep it around peaceful, but but as long as he knew

17:18

there was peace who would go to his model

17:20

set, whereas somebody else may have been

17:22

more hands on deck when it comes to,

17:24

like, making sure everything's better than

17:26

just peaceful. You know what I mean? That that --

17:28

Right. -- going through conditions and that there

17:30

aren't ramping in the in king's letting

17:32

Yeah. Kids fighting each other.

17:35

Exactly. Trying to improve it, not just keep the

17:37

status quo. Yeah. Exactly. So

17:39

as cool as she said, you know, obviously, we we

17:42

know that the arthrolin was hurt by

17:44

blood, but by temperament, you know, so she was

17:46

saying she was further complementing

17:48

Rainy's about, you know, just how good

17:50

she would have been, you know, in that position of

17:52

power. Yep. It's

17:54

funny her vision of of Acerus would

17:56

have lived his

17:56

days as a country lord. I I was always

17:59

thinking fat country

17:59

lord. Anytime they say country lord, like,

18:02

I assume they're fat. Lord

18:04

two fat to sit hours. Yeah.

18:07

That country lord content to

18:09

hunt and study his histories, but

18:11

here we are. Yeah.

18:14

Allison, kind

18:15

of folds, you

18:16

know, sorta to the patriarchal system.

18:19

She says, we do not rule,

18:21

but we may guide to the

18:23

men that do. which

18:26

later, Rainy's in a few minutes here, Rainy's

18:28

kinda turns around and

18:30

tries to, I think, manipulate and

18:32

put a little in session kind of

18:34

idea into the back of Allison's ad.

18:36

Yeah. For

18:37

analysts who says they they

18:40

need to to

18:40

guide them in gently away from

18:42

violence, ensure destruction,

18:45

and

18:45

the instead of

18:46

going back towards peace. push them.

18:48

Yeah. Push on towards peace. It's funny because

18:50

she's talking about she's implying that, like, women are

18:52

the more the fairer sex. You know, the more

18:55

peaceful and responsible. But

18:58

then Who kills most people this

19:00

episode? Rainy's -- Yeah. -- a

19:02

woman. -- slaughter is like half of king's

19:04

landing. Yeah. It's literally across a lot

19:06

of people packed in the metro. I

19:08

get Yep. Yeah. It blows up through the floor. So it may not

19:10

be quite as simple as men bad,

19:12

women good, you know. They each have got

19:15

characteristics and It's a kind of symbiosis

19:17

that can be achieved when a man when

19:19

women work together that I think is

19:21

unattainable and either either

19:23

in isolation as seen with Johannes,

19:25

the conciliator and his wife,

19:27

the good queen, Alessandra.

19:30

Right.

19:32

Nothing, Allison. Is this is is this where

19:34

they had kinda tussled with their hands?

19:36

Allison was begging her holding her hands and ringing

19:38

her up. Yep. She breaks away. Finally,

19:40

breaks free in this kind dramatic

19:42

moment and he walks back to the center

19:44

of the room to to repulse by

19:47

by Allison and and what she's trying to

19:49

do to to persuade rainies

19:51

over to the greens. And she asked,

19:53

is it in the name of peace that you've imprisoned

19:56

me? And then the key question,

19:58

what have a dragon. Yeah. I love how long

19:59

she was right toward dragon. Like, my

20:02

mind would go right to my dog or, like, right

20:04

to my bird, you know, like -- Yeah. --

20:06

same way. I I just I

20:08

mean, there's no other place to really keep them

20:10

aside to Dragon pit, but to Dragon

20:12

Mont potentially -- We're a sign. --

20:14

that's on. Oh, yeah. That's on Dragonstone.

20:17

the line. I mean, you could land her out

20:20

in Kings Landing. Remember

20:22

in in season eight where there's this random,

20:24

like, open kinda area that

20:26

the golden company line up? Oh,

20:29

yeah. When John and

20:31

Tyrion are about to But now, it

20:33

receives the city.

20:34

True. True. because, like, this open

20:37

area that we've never really seen where the

20:39

Navy looked at, everybody, in

20:41

the big shots. And where

20:43

where they kill where basically,

20:45

they have Masante. Hershey has Masante

20:47

up on the battlements. And we're

20:49

like, oh, where is this where

20:51

is this open? It's like almost sandy

20:54

open area. I think

20:56

a full in open

20:59

field. Exactly. But, anyway,

21:01

I was like, I stay in trying to think of

21:03

a place a dragon rider could put

21:05

their dragon. It's not the dragon dragon. Well,

21:07

she lives at things like the mark. Right? So

21:09

where would she normally keep it? It must stay with

21:11

her at driftmark. Right? At driftmark, you

21:13

know, somewhere. hanging out, like over there

21:15

where Vanguard was, you know, in the sand

21:17

dunes. Yeah. Just chill. I

21:19

wouldn't want I wouldn't want I wouldn't want

21:21

to leave my dragon locked up in the

21:23

dragon pit. hell no. At at

21:25

the whims of whoever

21:27

controls the dragon pit. Right.

21:29

Basically, how's high tower? Right.

21:31

Especially if you're not on their team. Yeah.

21:33

Like, you came here to

21:35

hear Raymond and his petition for

21:37

the succession of Jiffmark.

21:40

and turns out the series came in and kind

21:42

of saved the day because the Hot Towers had it

21:44

all planned out. But

21:46

Anyway, I'll

21:47

have to say, I wouldn't leave my dragon in the dragon.

21:49

Anyway, I couldn't easily get to it. I just

21:51

tell I just

21:52

tell her to sit up top of the red keep

21:55

and just

21:55

state. No. She's a

21:58

delirian, I believe her word for state.

22:00

They put. Yeah. But

22:02

she's immediately, it's like, what am I dragging?

22:04

Yeah. So Allison is

22:06

kinda doing the tactical, you know, dragon math

22:09

of, you know, war. Yeah. You

22:11

know, if we're overmatched,

22:13

Raynira will be tempted to strike

22:16

us and war will ensue. But

22:18

without your dragon, Raynira may

22:20

be, you know, persuaded persuaded

22:23

to negotiate So and,

22:24

basically, using

22:26

mailies as, you know, a hostage.

22:28

So the light we were

22:30

trying to figure out the lords and ladies

22:32

of comes up -- Right. -- or they would

22:34

do with them. Besides keeping their

22:36

dragon as a hostage. So as

22:38

one less dragon

22:39

that that could

22:40

they're in the greens possession, and

22:43

they are gonna hold onto it so that

22:45

it doesn't go over to right near the side of

22:47

the chest port. like we're talking

22:49

about, they lost the blacks, lost the

22:52

radar to the greens. Yeah. brutal. So they're

22:54

trying to prevent that, which, you know, which is

22:56

a good tactic on the

22:58

greens part just to control the

23:00

dragons, especially a big dragon

23:02

with a very experienced rider. Very

23:04

experienced decades. Mailise

23:07

and Rainy's.

23:10

So they're

23:12

trying to, you know, use that

23:14

to to get re near it to the negotiation

23:17

table. Yep. And see promises

23:19

are drift mark, but it's like it's

23:21

never a good negotiation test

23:24

It's never a good negotiation tactic

23:26

to promise something that somebody

23:28

already has. If you want, just Martin, you can

23:30

have it. It's like,

23:31

Rami's has been sitting

23:33

in the driftwood thrones the last six

23:35

years that cordless has been gone. It's like, what

23:37

are you talking about? I mean, she's saying once the

23:39

Greens are in power, and wars over

23:42

to leave her alone, and she can have Driftmark.

23:44

But the science, she already has Driftmark.

23:46

And they have they really

23:48

I mean, he smokes somewhere. He's without a

23:51

writer. And Vela has

23:53

I can't remember dragon. Yeah.

23:55

I can't remember the name of hers either.

23:57

and have to look it up. So, anyway,

24:00

arena.

24:00

One of them arena, I think arena doesn't have

24:02

one available does. Anyway, it's

24:05

pretty pretty interesting that the dragons

24:07

they're already figuring out if it

24:09

comes to war who has what dragons

24:11

and what's gonna happen. and

24:13

she and then she can pass it down to

24:15

her granddaughters. Rainy's, overall, seems

24:18

impressed with how astute Allicent

24:20

is regarding the overall dynamics of

24:23

of this whole thing, the dragons, the, you

24:25

know, the leverage in various

24:27

things. And she's like, you are wiser than I

24:29

believed you to be. Kinda like gives it the

24:31

up and down look, you know, and, Alison And

24:34

they see Tawser. Yes. He calls her by her last

24:36

name. So you've been married to veserus

24:38

Targaryen this whole time, so people may think of you

24:40

as Allison Targaryen, but Oh,

24:42

you are Allison Google Tower.

24:44

Good point. You've got you've been wearing these green

24:47

dresses every day all day since the

24:49

wedding freeze. You are

24:51

Alison High Tower. like, you come in and pretending to be

24:53

my family leveraging me, like,

24:55

you're better than I thought you would be.

24:57

You're still a high tower. Exactly.

24:59

And Allison tries to say, you know, oh,

25:01

sure. True Queen counts the cost

25:03

to her people, which is true.

25:05

shows how her she's got the right

25:08

mindset for a leader.

25:10

Yeah. You

25:11

know, she's thinking about, you know, before breaks out,

25:14

you know, what's it what's it?

25:16

This is gonna cause, you know, when the high lords

25:18

and ladies, you know, play their Game of Thrones, it's

25:20

the small folk who die. So

25:23

though but

25:24

Rainy's, you know, tells her he's like, yeah. But she's

25:27

still toil

25:29

in this

25:29

patriarchical system. You're

25:31

you're still serving Auto

25:33

and Aecon.

25:35

And here, I mean,

25:35

even with Kristen Cole. I mean, Kristen Cole

25:37

serves a to the ones --

25:40

Yeah. -- through this whole through this whole

25:42

system. Great net line,

25:44

the next line. Yeah. Absolutely.

25:46

Since Irany's tells her, you don't desire to be free.

25:48

You just want to make a window in the wall

25:50

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

25:52

No. That's not maybe one of my favorite

25:54

lines of the of this episode. And

25:57

then next line, like, this

25:59

totally changed the

25:59

direction of this. She kinda gets Rames

26:02

gets really close to Allison.

26:04

and this literally whispers in her ear.

26:06

Have

26:06

you never imagined yourself

26:10

on

26:10

the iron?

26:24

You never imagined yourselves on

26:27

the iron throne. problem.

26:29

I mean, I also was

26:31

like Yeah. I also

26:33

was like, look

26:36

up like Some of her look is speechlessness.

26:38

She's like, no, but

26:40

maybe

26:40

I should, but that's bad. But

26:42

it seems like there's, like, like,

26:44

ten different thoughts -- Right. -- like race across her mind

26:46

and across her face in a span of, you know,

26:48

half a second. Yep. Yeah.

26:51

Snow Maybe I'm

26:53

gonna I'm gonna leave you I thought

26:55

Alison sort of projected here. I'm gonna leave you

26:58

alone to your thoughts.

27:00

That's like, Allison was gonna be a little with her thoughts

27:02

too. Seriously. And

27:04

then this

27:06

turned out to be a really ominous

27:09

Startutation. Ring the bell when you have

27:11

an answer. Yeah. Definitely.

27:13

And so that was interesting. Have you ever

27:15

considered yourself on the errand thrown? potentially.

27:17

So we'd know that there's she's, like,

27:19

planting the seeds of

27:22

of mutiny. Like

27:24

like Corollus said to Raymond, in

27:26

the step to step stones. She's

27:28

planting little seeds that could fracture the

27:30

greens, you know, with Eimand who's

27:33

jealous of Aegon and there could be

27:35

conflict there. And now she's saying

27:37

to Alison,

27:39

like, even you, you could set the throne. Wouldn't you

27:41

want that? Like, how have you not been considering

27:43

that you have to be? Right? Think about it.

27:45

You could sit the iron throne. And that's

27:47

like another way that the greens could be divided

27:50

and begin in fighting

27:52

if for some reason she was like, you

27:54

know what? You're right. I am gonna take the throne to my

27:56

soft sets. That's a possibility moving

27:58

forward. Although it doesn't

28:00

happen at the end of this episode when things are

28:02

kind of settled to

28:04

one degree or another. Yeah.

28:06

But, I mean, she like she said, she has

28:08

the the temperament and thought process of, you

28:10

know, counting the cost to for people, you know, more than, you

28:12

know, most rulers do. He's obviously

28:14

way better fitted than Aegon would be.

28:16

Eamon is still, you know, pretty

28:18

young. and inexperienced in the

28:20

ways of the world. What does

28:22

Danny say? Young and inexperienced in the

28:24

ways of war? Yeah. I think so. Or

28:26

of the world, I I can't remember. She says

28:28

it constantly in the books. And and

28:30

so funny dude, Roy Daughtrice. At first, he

28:32

does, like, a kind of a normal verse voice

28:35

for the narrator for the audio book. for

28:37

Daenerys in book one and two. But then, like,

28:39

there was a gap between recording book two and

28:41

three or something. It's it comes back. It feels

28:43

like a little Irish voice

28:45

for Daenerys. I may only be a

28:47

young girl without

28:49

knowing the ways of war. Oh,

28:51

yeah, fuck. RIP, man.

28:53

RIP, Lloyd, your trees. It's so

28:55

awesome. Higher Mentor, Helene. Resolute.

28:58

Who's gonna be? Who's he gonna be?

29:00

He's be Grand master Picell, I think. Yeah. He was in the Right.

29:03

He was in the master Picell.

29:06

Yep. Yeah. And

29:08

then

29:08

you see, you got in a show for with

29:10

Grand Maestr, and what'd you

29:12

say? Pyromancer,

29:13

Helene.

29:15

There's a name for those guys.

29:17

Wisdom?

29:17

Oh, yeah. Wisdom mainly

29:19

like that's their their

29:22

title. the poor answers are called wisdoms. Yeah. That's

29:24

wizards for for Gandalf and Saruman and

29:26

Mother Rings. That ass. Don't have

29:28

dragon fire. Wildfire is the next best

29:31

thing. Right? Exactly. I

29:33

wonder if that ever comes into

29:35

play in the dance. I don't

29:37

remember it, but

29:38

who knows? speaking of women slaughtering

29:41

citizens. Yes, sir. See, blowing up the

31:31

you simply a further peel

31:34

in this stinking onion with

31:36

another great line there. And

31:38

dude, her first line to

31:40

him just blows him

31:42

away. my condolences on the

31:44

passing of your king. And he's like,

oh my god. Like What? Yeah.

31:48

He has tried so hard

to lock down everybody and everything in the red

31:53

keep to keep this from getting out. Yeah. She

31:55

just hits him with the facts. Like, I

31:57

know your secret, sorry

31:59

that king is dead,

31:59

and he's like, then you don't

32:01

have much of a look, much of a giveaway?

32:04

And he's like -- Yeah. -- he's like He's

32:06

like, how And

32:08

this is this

32:11

simple sentence is enough for to let

32:13

him know that she's for real and signals

32:15

for the cash. And one of

32:17

the things I Yeah. Go ahead.

32:19

It's it's it's her. It's her. Come on.

32:21

Yeah. Absolutely. So

32:23

one of the boys one of the twins brings over the cash

32:25

and he gets down to business. Where is Prince

32:27

egg on? And

32:31

people were speculating about her accent before.

32:33

Wondering if it's French or what

32:35

it is, but I think it's like their own

32:37

creation for like some

32:40

you know, far off far off planatose

32:43

accent because I can't think of anything

32:45

either, but I think I really liked it in this

32:47

scene as opposed to her

32:49

conversation with with Damon

32:51

in episode two or whatever it

32:53

does was when the -- Mhmm. -- accident seemed kind

32:55

of awkward. I thought in this scene, it was very

32:57

effective and mysterious, and

33:00

Peter seemed powerful and and exotic and

33:02

she, you know, he would she

33:04

tells him that the prince was in flea bottom where no

33:07

one is to be trusted and she thought it would be

33:09

best to secret him away,

33:11

somewhere safe in case that I'm looking for

33:13

him. And he he's like,

33:15

where? He's safely

33:17

tucked away. then she gets down to

33:19

business on her end. I want an

33:21

end to the savage use of

33:23

children and sleep on them. They're forced to

33:25

fight and worse. your gold cloaks

33:27

take the bribes given to them to look

33:29

away, an insanity either

33:31

tolerated or ignored by

33:33

the crown. And he's

33:35

like, I'll look into it. You have my

33:37

word. And she further presses

33:39

him when your plot's ripen and you

33:41

install your grandson in the throne, remember

33:43

it was me who put him there. I could

33:45

have killed him as easily as a

33:47

wasp on fruit. And then the my

33:49

favorite line of the whole episode right

33:52

here. Yep. there is no power, but what

33:54

the people allow you to take.

33:56

And I was like, yes. Just

33:58

like that, Masari becomes the best

34:01

character on this whole show. Back

34:03

against the powers that be

34:05

advent advocating for the small

34:07

folks of voice for justice and

34:10

decency in king's landing in a reminder that governments only

34:12

have the power that we, the

34:14

people, allow you to have. And

34:16

I was like, yeah. That's like

34:20

a fist popped at this. Yeah.

34:24

Massario. Yeah. Massario. Massario

34:26

twenty twenty

34:28

four. So Awesome. I was like, yes, dude.

34:30

Well, just you just killed it.

34:32

And and Otto's like,

34:35

I will remember Like, you've goddamn you're goddamn right you well

34:37

because you know she's powerful. She knows

34:40

things. She has the ability to snatch

34:42

people up

34:44

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

34:46

her because if you don't, she

34:48

could probably have you killed. You know, like,

34:50

you're only breathing because she is

34:53

letting you. It seems like an

34:56

Aegon, the crown prince, is only

34:58

breathing because she allowed it. Yeah. But she

35:00

has people in the in

35:02

the keep. you know, like, her Everybody's

35:04

at danger if if massaria is

35:06

angered. So you've got to keep her

35:08

in a good mood. I

35:11

was sort of wondering when Otto says, I will remember if he missed

35:13

that. No. because we're in a bad way. Yeah.

35:15

Yeah. That's true. He's like He could be like,

35:17

I remember I'll remember

35:20

a slight Okay. This lady is dangerous. She needs to be deadweight. I'm have

35:22

to take action or remember it, and we

35:24

can continue to work together. Yep. Yep.

35:28

See, very good very good read on that. Interesting

35:30

question. So instantaneously,

35:32

Missaria

35:34

is now one of the most

35:37

powerful people in the seven

35:39

kingdoms with leverage over the hand

35:41

and the crown, which

35:43

is pretty hardcore. and they're in their and

35:45

her debt for recovering the

35:48

prince. So we'll have to see

35:50

how that

35:52

plays out. Oh, do we talk about Johannes

35:54

Crown and where they're wrapping

35:56

up the Sarah's body and

35:58

Alison

36:00

is crying? I don't think we talked about that.

36:02

No. After after, you know, they

36:03

finished wrapping up the Sarah's

36:06

body, he Allison

36:08

brings the crown that

36:10

viserus wore, you know, his entire reign, the

36:12

golden crown that has the different sigils

36:16

Paramount -- All around it. -- Prepaid

36:18

S? That was the

36:19

the original age of Harris

36:21

got that crown. I don't

36:23

remember how he he came to to

36:26

possess it if it was a gift or or what the

36:28

history of it.

36:30

But, honestly, auto

36:31

and Alison choose to crown with the

36:33

conqueror's crown.

36:34

So to

36:35

Harrison's announcement, exactly,

36:38

like, to show to, you know, Zoom power. You

36:40

know, Black Fire,

36:41

they got sword, is

36:43

black and ruby.

36:45

Crown.

36:46

But here, Allison

36:48

places Viceris and Jahiris Crown,

36:51

the Golden Crown. on

36:52

the Cerus body, and and that's the last we see of it. So I'm

36:54

interested to see what becomes of

36:57

Tahiras the Cerus crown.

37:00

Yeah.

37:01

very interesting.

37:04

I got a feeling you'll see it again,

37:06

though. So

37:06

after after Alice I'm sorry.

37:09

After auto

37:09

and massarios little sit

37:11

down chat. I think we find

37:13

ourselves in us the great

37:15

sept, I think, is the name because the septum

37:17

Baylure is not a thing yet. Yeah.

37:19

And it's just called the grape set. It's

37:21

freaking gigantic. Like, it makes Zoom ears

37:23

basilica look tiny.

37:26

Yeah. And the the Eric twins are just kinda looking around. So, obviously,

37:28

they've been sitting here without specific

37:32

instructions. So sorry. I probably said something, you

37:34

know, just

37:36

kinda bag. It's like, go look in the set.

37:38

You might find him in the

37:40

center of the set. Right. That's

37:42

something that's kind of cryptic and

37:46

puzzling

37:47

like that. And so they're ear kinda on the hunt and

37:49

they hear

37:49

a cough. It's

37:52

like, like,

37:55

oh, listen. And the seft is completely empty. Where are

37:57

all the people? Yeah. They're being

37:59

rounded up.

37:59

Well, I guess this is the previous day. Oh, so they're

38:02

trying to be

38:04

rounded up. this next morning where they all get rounded up and

38:06

forced to like, you will go to

38:08

the deficit, and you will witness,

38:10

like, well, what if

38:12

I gotta That's even gonna be doctor's I got a doctor's

38:14

appointment. No. Gonna get that void or

38:16

checked. So they

38:18

they realized that that

38:22

it must be under this plinth or

38:24

some kind of alter kind of a central

38:26

alter type thing. And so I thought it

38:28

was funny that both of them reached inside

38:30

to pull them out. Instead of, like, the

38:33

little trapdoor is pretty small. And instead of one

38:35

of them just grabbing them,

38:38

they both kinda stick the top half of their body in there. Pull them out.

38:40

You basically, they pull them out kicking in

38:42

to win. They do everything

38:44

together. Yeah.

38:47

Watch out ladies.

38:49

Hey. So they pull them out

38:51

and he's like, where's

38:53

the white worm? which I thought was his odd is an odd

38:55

first statement. So I guess maybe he worked I

38:58

mean, he seems to know that he was

38:59

taken into her custody

39:02

for protect and you she

39:04

was right. Her people were like, the

39:06

white worm sent me to get you. We're

39:08

gonna keep you safe and hide you in

39:10

the sept because it's the perfect place for Aegon to hide because

39:12

it's the last place on Earth you would ever

39:14

go. Yeah. So it's

39:16

like definitely a great place with

39:18

Eric, said she sold

39:20

you for a price, and he's he's had a

39:22

funny response. Why did you pay it? He needs

39:24

to be left alone. Well,

39:27

not only that, but by saying why did you pay it? He's

39:29

like, why would you why would you guys want

39:31

me to be king? Like, what the hell?

39:33

You know I'm fucked in

39:35

the head. You know, like, he's total lunatic.

39:38

And so he's like, why? Why would

39:40

you do that? Why he

39:42

paid it?

39:44

Larry

39:44

is lying. And then his his mommy issues surfaced. I want

39:47

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

39:49

grandfather the hand will meet you

39:51

outside the city walls. a

39:54

very interesting line here. What was on this point? Yeah. What

39:56

was this point? He told

39:58

Eric bring him to only

39:59

to me. and you mustn't tell

40:02

no one, not even the queen. Mhmm.

40:04

So what was the plan

40:06

outside the city walls? That's sort of mysterious.

40:08

Outside the city walls, like you're saying, it was not

40:10

outside the red to keep. It's outside the city was you

40:12

gonna have a ship with some gold and be like,

40:14

get the hell out of here, or we'll kill you? So because

40:16

we won a Crown Aymond, you know,

40:18

or what what was the plan?

40:20

I don't know. It's pretty pretty interesting. In

40:22

in the small

40:23

council, when they reveal that there's this

40:25

long

40:25

lay plot, do they specifically name? They do

40:28

not Any

40:30

of the Do any of the conspirators name Aegon? They

40:32

just say, oh, now we can proceed with the

40:34

king's blessing.

40:36

So that could the full

40:38

assurance. Yeah. Yeah. It could mean

40:40

that Alison's line is

40:42

now the like, they got the blessing for

40:44

Alison's line. It doesn't necessarily mean that

40:46

they want egon to be crowned. It could mean like, oh, you know,

40:48

if something happens toegon. But then

40:50

again, Otto, what maybe wants to

40:52

meet him outside the city walls to sneak him

40:54

in somehow

40:56

so that he can get him into the the stealthily and

40:58

so that he can say

41:00

we need to attack Reneera

41:03

because they're gonna try to fight, which

41:05

is what Alison is trying to prevent. She'd when

41:08

they're she gives them counsel, your

41:10

grandfather will tell you

41:12

to strike but you must ignore this council, you know, when they're in

41:14

the wheelhouse, the litter, the

41:16

the horse left, the

41:18

horse left. So,

41:20

you know, Reagan kinda takes off running here. Yeah. And

41:22

and one of the twins grab

41:25

him, and they he said He's

41:27

gonna be full with another man. I

41:30

think so. you flee what other men die seeking. Yeah.

41:32

Real quick one. He's

41:34

just showing

41:34

over and over again.

41:35

He doesn't want this. He knows he's not

41:37

suited for it. other men would

41:40

kill for it. Yeah.

41:41

So many people want the throne. I

41:43

mean, the whole original series is, you know, you

41:45

know, vying for power and to

41:47

get the throne. then they

41:49

kinda wrestle him, you know, out in the

41:51

front of it. He was zipped.

41:54

And they're met

41:55

on the steps by the

41:58

other duo. Yeah. The cop

41:59

up adventure pair.

42:02

Crispin

42:02

hunt pops up out of

42:04

nowhere. I

42:08

truly regret this. So

42:10

Kristen Cole, I I didn't really comment

42:12

on his out on his disguise.

42:15

his

42:15

little hat that's, like, sorta

42:17

like a, I don't know,

42:19

to get the throne. Then

42:21

they kinda wrestle

42:22

him, you know, out the front of

42:24

the steps. And they're

42:27

met on the steps by

42:29

the other duo. Yeah.

42:32

other buddy cop team

42:34

up adventure

42:35

pair. Crispin hunt pops

42:37

up out of nowhere. I

42:41

truly regret this. So Kristen Cole,

42:43

I I didn't really comment on his

42:45

out on his disguise.

42:48

his

42:48

little hat that's like, sorta like, I

42:50

don't know, Henry the eights, you

42:52

know, that kinda little hat that

42:54

kinda has a little poof on

42:56

it on it. It looked it looked pretty

42:58

silly. You sent me the the meme though

43:00

where it said these people cost playing

43:02

their heroes and it was like,

43:04

Kristen Cole was wearing a similar hat to Reneera when they

43:07

when Reneera and Damon had gone on their

43:09

nighttime excursion and

43:12

Aemond here was wearing a similar cloak to Aemond. So

43:14

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

43:16

with each one is kind of modeling

43:20

them. Yeah.

43:22

definitely cause playing their heroes. Oh, they're obsessed with.

43:24

Yeah. Can't get over

43:26

him.

43:26

I was listening to

43:28

another podcast, and they were thinking the

43:32

opposite. that Eric with

43:33

an a, they're

43:35

wrong, is

43:35

I agree. Yeah.

43:37

So anyway so

43:39

this is Eric. This is Eric with

43:41

an e. I'm pretty sure that is, you know Eric is the one that

43:44

goes black and never

43:46

goes back.

43:47

Actually, yeah. So

43:50

Arik is the one sword fighting. Crossing

43:52

swords with with coal. Yep. because

43:54

he's still a little guy gone at this point.

43:57

Right. Eric's still just stays up on the the

43:59

top step

43:59

of the set. It's like Yeah.

44:02

I'm good. So that's why yeah. Yeah.

44:04

Band is his brother. That's hardcore. That's

44:07

crazy. In the middle of a

44:09

sword fight between him and Kristen Kohl's. Yeah. It was,

44:11

like, a renowned warrior. Two on one, they probably could

44:13

have taken him, but he was,

44:15

like, Honestly, ma'am. Absolutely. So then

44:18

this leaves Eamon free

44:20

to pursue Hagal because, you

44:22

know, the two kings guard kinda take care of each

44:24

other. yeah And,

44:26

you know, I guess, Eamon realizes

44:28

that the other kings guard isn't

44:30

gonna participate. So he's

44:32

like, okay. You know, Cole can

44:34

handle

44:35

Alright. So I'm

44:36

gonna go chase down Aegon. Yeah.

44:38

So Aegon and Aegon both go

44:40

scampering down the stairs from opposite

44:44

sides. And and catches up to him and tackles

44:46

him. And he's like,

44:48

ah, pinned got him pinned down on the

44:50

ground. Yeah.

44:52

and Eamon, you know, has a moment of honesty with his brother. was hoping you're I

44:55

was hoping you disappear. Yep. because he wants

44:57

that crown. Bear bear.

45:00

And

45:00

Aegon is just like giddy in this, like and I guess he realizes he's

45:02

caught and there's he's not gonna

45:05

escape, you know,

45:06

his state

45:07

of becoming king So

45:09

he's just kinda like Gidi and, you know,

45:12

playful almost with with Eamon. His

45:14

little brother, you know, quote

45:16

unquote, little. is

45:18

is our father is our father's

45:20

father truly dead. He might just be

45:22

excited that the Sarah's is dead

45:25

because the Sarah's never respected

45:27

him. it seems like, remember when they're at the

45:29

court hearing, where they're deciding who was gonna be

45:31

aired to draft Mark, it was, like, as

45:33

soon as his mother got, like, outdone

45:36

by ranira, he was laughing

45:38

about it. He seems to laugh. I think it's

45:40

funny whenever somebody gets the better of his

45:42

parents, basically. Yeah. Yeah.

45:44

And

45:44

so he's yeah. And it was probably just his

45:47

mommy and

45:47

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

45:49

if somebody, you know, hits him with a zinger

45:51

or whatever, he kinda strikes him as funny.

45:54

Yeah. Eamon tells

45:56

him, yep. father's

45:57

truly dead and they're gonna make

45:59

you

45:59

king. It's in Aegon, Spitson

46:02

is one good eye. It's like how dirty a move is

46:04

it to spit in the I

46:05

have a one eyed man. Dude, spinning.

46:07

Yeah. That's super dirty. And it like, if you

46:09

spit in like, spinning in somebody's

46:11

face is like declaration of war. Like, if if you spread

46:13

my face, I'm gonna rip your throat out.

46:16

Yeah. That's the

46:18

worst. Yeah.

46:20

So

46:21

Aegon, does he run off again? Does he choke him some more in here?

46:23

I can't remember. Aegon says no. He lift

46:25

him to his feet.

46:28

And it

46:28

it cuts back to to

46:31

Eric and to Kristen.

46:34

And he's like Kristen's

46:36

like, where's your brother? You know? And

46:38

he's long gone. And the two

46:40

of them both also run down the stairs

46:43

from opposite sides and start flashing again. And it cuts

46:45

to a really cool shot of

46:48

a, like, some some

46:50

bystanders who who all of a sudden

46:52

are like, oh my god. on. As

46:54

these guys are clashing with swords right

46:56

next to him, it pans over to the sword

46:58

fight. We see that Eric has

47:00

abandoned Eric.

47:01

Eric. Then

47:04

the

47:04

brothers kinda clash some more

47:06

egg I'm saying. Let me go. I don't wanna

47:08

rule. I have no taste. I'm not suited.

47:10

And Eamon is like, you're right, man. I can't argue

47:12

with that. You are you are definitely not

47:16

suited. And there's

47:18

an interesting moment here. Aegon says, let me go. I'll find a ship, and

47:20

I'll never be seen again. And and

47:23

there's this pause before coal

47:26

you

47:26

know, comes up behind Aegon. And if it

47:28

was

47:29

just left to Eamon in this moment

47:31

-- Yeah. --

47:31

I think I think

47:34

he would Quickly escort

47:36

Aegon down to the harbor, put

47:38

him

47:38

on a ship and wash him

47:41

sail away. Agreed. But Cole's

47:43

here, and Aegon knows it too. He's like -- Yeah. -- cold

47:45

cold in my face. Like, you just let me

47:47

go. Oh. And then let

47:49

me go. Kristen slinks up and oh,

47:51

man, when when he disarmed Eric, right, and made him

47:54

drop his sword, he picks up the

47:56

sword and he has, like, the smugest look

47:58

on his

47:59

face. Yeah. I just

48:03

wanna ring Kristen's

48:06

neck -- Yeah. -- super small. He's the

48:08

worst.

48:10

It comes

48:11

about behind Aegon and the

48:13

Queen awaits. Oof. And

48:15

then it cuts

48:17

to Allison Meeting

48:20

with Auto, and Auto is

48:22

like, well played.

48:24

And she says, no, this is a game,

48:26

which is like, a game of Thrones,

48:28

you know, like it really is,

48:30

which is kind of a funny thing.

48:32

And he's like, oh, you treat it like a game and

48:35

whatever our differences, our hearts

48:37

remain as one. It's the good of

48:39

the family that we both desire,

48:41

and this is Allison finally standing up for herself

48:43

and standing up to her father. Remember her conversation

48:45

with Rainy's earlier? She's like, you

48:47

still just obey men, your father,

48:49

your husband, you

48:52

know, your son. Yeah. And and so,

48:54

finally, Alison is standing up for herself.

48:56

And the seed that that

48:58

Rainy's planted about her one wanting

49:01

to sit thrown hasn't sprouted,

49:04

but the seed of of

49:06

that she's planted to

49:08

try to divide auto and Allison by is

49:10

starting to sprout and Allison to stepping

49:12

up for herself and confronting her

49:14

father head on

49:16

in this situation, which is really awesome.

49:18

She's like, you know,

49:20

she she tells him that our

49:22

hearts were never one and that she sees that

49:26

now and she's just been a piece on the on the board that

49:28

autos would move around and he's like, well, if that's

49:30

true, then that means I'm made you

49:32

queen. Right? So he's basically

49:34

admitting it.

49:36

That's that's saying, like, it's true. Yeah. Would you have desired the

49:38

the crown otherwise? And she's like,

49:40

how would I even know? The only things

49:43

I've ever wanted are things that

49:45

you have imprinted on me to want. And now the

49:48

debt comes due, the debt that you're

49:50

happy enough

49:52

to pay slaughtering Reneera and Damon. And

49:54

he's he's like it's a sacrifice for the

49:56

stability of the realm. No

49:58

no king has lived

49:59

that hasn't had to forfeit the lives

50:02

of a few to protect the many. That's

50:04

some Machiavellian and justifying

50:06

the means type stuff. And she's like,

50:08

oh, I understand your squeamishness. And this is

50:11

a great line here. Reluctance to murder

50:13

is not a weakness. And

50:16

she's like, takes control.

50:18

She's like, I have egg on now, and we're

50:20

gonna proceed as I see

50:22

fit. Sticking it to him. Sticking

50:24

it to him. We're gonna send Renira

50:26

and Damon terms that they can accept without true

50:28

terms. And Otto is like,

50:30

dude, this is not good. They're they're this

50:32

is gonna mean war. If she'll survives

50:35

her banners will mass behind

50:38

her, and they'll they'll, you know, be

50:40

ready to fight

50:42

basically. And Allison's just not

50:44

having it. She goes through a list of things

50:46

that are gonna happen from here on out.

50:48

She's like Kristen Cole will be

50:50

Lord Commander. Aegon will be

50:52

anointed tomorrow. The whole

50:54

of Kings Landing has to witness as we see

50:56

they're all funnels toward Dragon pit

50:58

coming up.

50:58

We're gonna bring in the

51:00

conquerors soared and crowned to send a a signal

51:03

of strength. Yeah. Just yet

51:05

to

51:05

project the conquerors

51:08

name,

51:08

the cocker's crown, the cocker's sword. Yeah. There you go. To

51:11

I mean, they have to exude strength right

51:13

now. I mean, Reneer is gonna

51:15

fight either way,

51:18

but to

51:18

get the people and to get as many houses as they can

51:20

to to follow Aegon, you

51:22

know, the newly anointed and

51:26

crowned king Now they have to

51:28

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

51:31

And it's

51:34

like it's like AUA

51:37

beaten moment. Where

51:40

auto is just like, he gives up and he's just

51:44

like, you look so much like your mother in certain

51:46

lights, and Alison is disgusted by

51:48

this. She seems to be just

51:50

generally creeped out by any

51:52

male sexuality. at

51:54

this point, you know, after having gone through

51:56

everything and dealing with LAYRIS as we'll

51:58

talk about a bit later. And this

52:01

is kind of a there's sort of a creepy

52:03

sexual undertone to Otto's remark here,

52:06

like saying something, comparing you to your

52:08

mother. It's like he loved your mother.

52:10

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

52:12

kinda weird. But it made me think

52:14

also, was his wife it

52:17

sort of implied to me that his wife was

52:19

probably the only other woman on the planet who could

52:21

win an argument against him and boss him

52:23

around and put him in his place.

52:25

He's like, you know, somebody that exactly that that would

52:27

put him in his place, would tell him, you know, give him

52:29

the business, you know, about whatever

52:31

the situation was.

52:34

and that he he couldn't really he couldn't

52:36

just dismiss them. His hand, he has

52:38

a lot of power to you know,

52:41

if if somebody's in

52:43

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

52:45

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

52:47

know, at least a little bit. Right.

52:50

Mainly mainly though he cares about power

52:52

and he's installed his daughter as queen. He's about to install grandson

52:54

as, you know, to usurp the

52:58

throne. So nobody can

53:00

nobody really stands in Otto's way. You

53:02

know, that's why he didn't like Damon

53:04

because Damon is a rogue and

53:06

won't do the the y his

53:09

sage, you know, conventional wisdom that Otto would have, you

53:11

know, the

53:11

advice that he would have put

53:13

forth, David. So

53:16

no now that

53:18

Allison has won this, you know, victory,

53:20

you know, in who who's gonna have

53:22

Aegon and who's gonna control how

53:24

Renira and Damon are dealt with. Alison has won this,

53:28

and she's given him the business and given these

53:30

are gonna be the terms. This is what we're

53:32

gonna do. and

53:34

she closes the door and, you know,

53:36

he says, as you wish. But yeah.

53:38

I think because she is putting him

53:40

in his place, he's like,

53:42

man.

53:42

She's just like her mom. I

53:45

think he was

53:47

pretty impressed too. by

53:49

it, you know. And he got beat, you

53:52

know, error you know, his set of goons

53:54

got beat by Allison and her set of

53:56

goons, but

53:58

still Well, the main thing is they found the prince

53:59

and he's in custody and he's

54:02

gonna be anointed

54:03

in Crown the

54:06

next day. So all the details about what's gonna

54:08

happen outside of that are kind of what

54:10

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

54:12

got me, but he's still impressed that

54:14

his daughter sort of like his

54:16

scene with Allison after she came at

54:18

Rainier with the dagger. She thought

54:20

she was gonna be in trouble. But

54:22

Otto's like, bad respect. I see you have the

54:24

determination. Yeah. I see you have the determination to

54:26

win, you know, this game of Thrones. So --

54:28

Yep. -- he's he's he's

54:30

definitely impressed. Yeah.

54:32

And so he reluctantly accepts that she's in control of

54:34

the situation and he's bitch made.

54:40

Oh, man. So then it cuts to

54:42

a scene with Laris.

54:45

And Alison is arriving

54:47

back at her chamber and

54:49

Lara is lurking in the background waiting for her. And

54:51

it doesn't seem like she even notices him at

54:54

first. She goes to pour herself

54:56

some wine. Yeah. And from the background,

54:58

your grace, and it's lyricist

55:00

lurking. And

55:02

she's like, hours Lord,

55:04

Larry, it's like, please just leave me alone.

55:06

But he tells her, I think

55:08

I've I've found something out that you

55:12

should know. Have you asked yourself? I wonder how is it

55:14

that your father, the hand,

55:16

found egon first. And I

55:18

totally missed this on the

55:20

first watch. But at this point,

55:22

he sits back creepily in his

55:24

chair and glares at her

55:26

intimidately. Yeah. He gets

55:28

oddly comfortable. Why? Yeah. So, obviously, this is

55:30

an ongoing thing that they have. She looks at

55:32

her like, you know what you gotta do if you want

55:35

answers. You know how to get them. Take

55:37

them shoes off. we're doing the thing. Yeah. And she

55:39

looks down at the floor and discussed

55:41

at this moment, like, oh, god.

55:43

You want me to take off when

55:45

she was again? And yet, it

55:48

seems like it's happened before, and it seems

55:50

like she's being forced to do it.

55:52

So it's, like, awkwardly

55:54

uncomfortable as as she's being

55:56

manipulated and has to

55:58

surrender her will to

55:59

layer us to learn the

56:02

facts here. man, it's so creepy. It's so

56:04

creepy. He gives her little

56:06

pieces, you know, all to the conversation.

56:08

Yep. We're both we're both

56:10

spies. There's a war the Red

56:12

Keep. And, you know, our business, you know,

56:14

travels along this web.

56:16

And

56:16

then he he kinda tells the tale

56:20

on auto. He says your father knows that this web

56:22

is out there and exists, but he's left

56:24

it in place more

56:26

than once. proved

56:28

advantageous to those willing to feed the

56:30

weaver feed the weaver the

56:32

spider. yeah Yeah.

56:34

I think

56:35

at this point, and she asked him a question, you know, you know,

56:37

give me some more. Yeah. She says, and

56:39

this weaver watches me

56:42

asking me, like and he asked me some more information. And he just yeah.

56:44

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

56:46

He looks down at her feet again. Like,

56:49

you next step. this

56:52

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

56:54

where she takes the stockings off. Oh,

56:56

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

56:59

Yeah. He's like, one more. And he goes,

57:01

you know, and it looks down at her feet,

57:03

like, oh, I can't remember if you

57:06

strip to the next level.

57:08

Oh, man. More

57:10

for Lara's tells Larry yeah. Exactly.

57:12

Lara's set that tells him that

57:14

your lady in waiting, Talia is

57:16

one of the spiders. Busted. Yeah. There

57:19

it. Yeah. Talya's busted. But she's

57:21

already in jail. They already put her in

57:23

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

57:25

there are even more like

57:27

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

57:29

was an interesting detail to learn.

57:31

Yeah. Anybody could be a silon. Oh, nope. That's

57:33

battle circle. Anybody could be a

57:36

a spider. And

57:37

then

57:40

does she

57:40

do something else before he talks about? There's

57:42

one way to destroy his advantage. Jennifer

57:44

thinks she's at the end where she finally kinda turns Yeah.

57:46

That's Does her feet up on my couch and

57:49

turns away -- Yep. --

57:51

total Toll discussed. Yeah. He continues here telling her

57:53

that, you know, the the only

57:56

way to destroy

57:58

his advantage is to take out this

58:00

the the head of the the weaver, basically. And he

58:02

uses a metaphor like AAA

58:04

beehive metaphor saying when the queen

58:06

dies, the

58:08

bees fly without purpose. And he pegs he's pegging your pardon

58:10

for the turn of praise, your grace, because he's

58:12

talking to the queen. Yeah. I was like, you can't

58:14

talk about the queen dying in front of the

58:18

queen. seeing it in your metaphor. That's fine. So funny. And

58:20

so he's she's like, the and

58:22

this falls within your wheelhouse. Like, you this

58:25

is something you can handle and he's like, if you wish it could be

58:28

done and I think signifying that

58:30

she wants it to be done, she'd like goes to the

58:32

next level of

58:34

the foot finish -- Yeah. -- thing and, like, turns the fire

58:36

or something. Yeah. because

58:38

of the four the four view of

58:41

the feed Yeah. And he he, like, reaches

58:43

into underneath his cloak and

58:45

starts pulling on his on his little on

58:48

his thing. and it cuts back

58:50

to, you know, so creepy just staring

58:52

at the feet. And it cuts back to Alison as

58:54

she turns her head away and she's just,

58:56

like, like, disgusted by the

58:58

whole situation. Well, you know, like, Cersei, she's doing what she's gotta do

59:00

to get the answers that she needs and

59:02

whatnot or like Sansa. I mean -- Right. --

59:04

but, you know, the he's I think

59:06

he just I

59:08

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

59:10

does it for Pie. He has subjugated the

59:12

queen of the seven kingdoms to

59:16

his perverse you know, will to play his little game. Yeah. It's

59:18

gotta be a combination of those two.

59:20

Yeah. And, like I said, he

59:22

don't

59:22

really care

59:24

whether she knows all the information or not

59:26

or if Adam knows all the information or not, he's just playing things to

59:28

his advantage. Yep. And, obviously, this

59:31

is his little you

59:33

know, kiki thing he likes.

59:36

And the the thing he hadn't

59:38

gotten some headmaiden, you

59:40

know, to be weird

59:42

with him. This

59:42

is the queen. Yeah. He's like the queen on

59:44

the feet and the domination at

59:46

the same time. Yeah. And her

59:48

position, and

59:48

now he has positioned himself

59:52

with his whole hair and whole plot to kinda

59:54

have

59:54

her under his thumb. Yeah. It's it's

59:56

interesting that dynamic change like auto has

59:59

taken down a peg. but Laris

1:00:01

goes up a peg and seems to be elevating

1:00:03

himself above the the queen.

1:00:05

And so interestingly, we have, like, the white

1:00:07

worm elevating her

1:00:10

self above auto, and then we have Larryis elevating himself

1:00:12

above the queen. So those could

1:00:14

be like two factions that are gonna

1:00:16

be sort of battling it out. to

1:00:20

talk about. Each one, Otto

1:00:22

and the Queen in-depth of their spy

1:00:24

master, the White Worm and LARRIS.

1:00:27

That'll be really interesting going forward to see how that

1:00:29

plays out. So then the morning

1:00:32

arrives and we see

1:00:34

each of the main players on

1:00:36

the Greens as the

1:00:38

sun is still hovering just beneath the

1:00:40

horizon. We're starting to get a little bit of

1:00:42

light, but egg on is just

1:00:44

chilling out eating some chicken

1:00:46

something. Auto is standing, looking out of the

1:00:48

window, nervously. Eamon is sitting in

1:00:50

a chair

1:00:52

contemplating everything and Alison

1:00:54

is standing by a brochure looking all

1:00:56

nervous. And Reenees

1:00:58

sits in the dark as well

1:01:00

but all of a sudden, there's a commotion

1:01:02

in the background. And it's Eric. Eric, out of the

1:01:04

way Out of my words. Yeah. he's

1:01:08

taking advantage of the moment. There must have been just a

1:01:10

brief time period where he can get

1:01:13

to the princess. and

1:01:16

free her. And it's interesting

1:01:18

because he

1:01:19

goes through the main door to get

1:01:21

her here here. Right?

1:01:23

out of my way, he has

1:01:24

to push somebody out of the way. But then

1:01:26

he exits with her through the

1:01:28

secret tunnels. So why didn't he just take

1:01:30

the secret tunnels to enter her room?

1:01:33

Yeah. I don't know. Maybe

1:01:35

there's not any to wherever they're

1:01:37

holding trainees. Well, there might not. Oh,

1:01:39

yeah. True. He've he've he somehow

1:01:41

gets her into the secret tunnels. Right? Maybe there's no

1:01:44

entrance into that particular room. But

1:01:46

it seems like Rainy's was

1:01:48

unaware of these tunnels.

1:01:50

Right? because he's leading the way. He must have gone through the secret tunnels with

1:01:52

Aegon in knights of De Bottchery.

1:01:54

Aegon leading the way of bringing his protector

1:01:56

with him as they exit into

1:01:58

king's

1:02:00

landing. but Reenees seems unfamiliar with the passages as

1:02:02

they get down into the chamber

1:02:04

where Valerion's skull is, and she

1:02:06

pauses like,

1:02:08

holy it's biliary on, you know, and she like, I love

1:02:10

that that she stops dead in her tracks,

1:02:12

and there's just like a brief moment

1:02:16

of reverence where she's looking at Valerion and absorbing

1:02:18

that this is where his skull has

1:02:20

been this whole

1:02:22

time. Man,

1:02:32

imagine how big

1:02:33

his pelvis must be. Where is

1:02:36

that? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Where's the

1:02:38

rest of his Kelton. And this

1:02:40

is the way they shot this scene

1:02:42

was is really again, we

1:02:44

see the scope and the scale

1:02:46

of

1:02:47

a versus

1:02:48

just the head of the Larry on the black

1:02:50

trailer. VEGR is huge, but, you know,

1:02:52

I want to see the Larry on live

1:02:54

in an action one. I'll also hopefully.

1:02:57

hopefully, we'll get to con to conquest.

1:03:00

Yeah. If we do, I send you guys that

1:03:02

meme of of some of the

1:03:04

fan art that took

1:03:06

Henry Cavill and put him in Damon's

1:03:08

armor with Blackfyre and

1:03:10

-- Yeah. -- the the the cat's pod

1:03:12

dagger Egon's dagger and

1:03:14

Egon's crown, and he looked awesome.

1:03:16

It was Egon the conqueror. It'd be it'd

1:03:18

be great to get in reality. Pretty

1:03:20

epic. Pretty epic. casting for sure.

1:03:22

be simple. So Randy's mom was

1:03:24

Jocelyn Baratheon. So she

1:03:27

I can't remember

1:03:27

it. Randy's may have

1:03:30

grown up.

1:03:31

at storms in. Although, if her

1:03:33

mom

1:03:34

was Baratheon, then then her father was --

1:03:36

Oh, was -- Oh, was -- -- was -- -- was --

1:03:39

-- she heard a sound of Well well,

1:03:41

it's Sahara she was she and Vocera's are Jahara's

1:03:43

grandkids. Oh, wow. Whoever

1:03:45

her dad

1:03:48

was. So

1:03:48

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

1:03:50

and Father was Targaryen, she probably did grow

1:03:52

up in Kings Landing. I was thinking if she grew up

1:03:54

in in storms in, then

1:03:57

she probably almost never had the

1:03:59

chance to use or see any of the

1:04:02

secret passageways or to see

1:04:04

the the bottom of the red key they

1:04:06

keep malaria. It's interesting, though, because

1:04:08

Reneera had not seen them either in Oh,

1:04:10

so well. her dad was.

1:04:12

So

1:04:13

if the mom was thinking but in

1:04:15

Franky's mom was Baratheon and Father was Targaryen,

1:04:17

she probably did grow up at Kings Landing. I was thinking

1:04:19

if she grew up in in

1:04:21

storms in, then she probably almost

1:04:23

never had the

1:04:23

chance to use or see any of the

1:04:26

secret passageways or to see

1:04:28

the the

1:04:30

bottom of the red key where

1:04:32

they keep malaria. It's interesting though, because Reneera had not seen them either until Daymond

1:04:34

showed her. And so Reneith

1:04:38

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

1:04:41

Damon and Aegon had were

1:04:43

familiar with the passages quite

1:04:46

apparently. Oh, and

1:04:48

as Eric shows up to save

1:04:50

her, he says an important line. I

1:04:52

cannot let this treachery stand. And,

1:04:56

yeah, they must enter the secret passages

1:04:58

elsewhere because before they get in the secret

1:05:00

passages, they pass

1:05:02

Caswell, who's

1:05:04

hanging in the nap room or something. And he's been executed

1:05:06

to the met the king's justice,

1:05:09

so that sucks. and

1:05:12

they exit. And yeah, Reinees is like,

1:05:14

where are we as they get down to the

1:05:16

battlements? And he's like just south of

1:05:18

king's way. So

1:05:20

this seems to exit,

1:05:23

the are like, into

1:05:25

king's landing, apparently, Yeah.

1:05:27

He said they're just south of the king's way.

1:05:30

Yeah. Interesting. Very interesting.

1:05:32

So then at this point,

1:05:35

He's like the black orders this way. We gotta go. And at this

1:05:37

point, it cuts to the White Worms Villa, which

1:05:39

we saw at the end of last episode

1:05:42

when Talia went to

1:05:44

inform her of the goings on.

1:05:46

And this time, it's it's up in

1:05:48

flames. It's engulfed. And flames

1:05:50

are just pouring out the windows too bad because

1:05:52

it's a

1:05:54

beautiful looking place, clearly one of the nicest places in

1:05:56

king's landing. And

1:05:58

I was wondering at

1:05:58

this point, will she think

1:05:59

it's auto? Or

1:06:02

she just revealed herself too. Did he does she think he's trying to take

1:06:04

her out because she was trying to leverage

1:06:06

him? Will she retaliate? So this

1:06:08

could be this

1:06:10

could end up dividing auto in the White Worm in

1:06:12

theory, which could cancel out my

1:06:15

idea of White Worm in auto

1:06:17

versus Alison and Larry.

1:06:20

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

1:06:22

to see what happens as a result of this.

1:06:24

How will the White Worm react?

1:06:27

She can she has people inside that keep she

1:06:29

could be dropping poison in cups. You know?

1:06:31

I mean, like, she's dangerous as

1:06:33

hell, dude. She's

1:06:36

terrifying. Yeah. Definitely. I think Randy screw up on Dragon storm.

1:06:38

Oh, wow. Alright. So, yeah, that that

1:06:40

that could explain that. and

1:06:44

they get down to the streets, and Rainy's

1:06:47

tells Eric, I won't leave

1:06:49

Malaise, and I love this, the

1:06:51

loyalty between, you know, a dragon rider and

1:06:53

their dragon. One of the first things on

1:06:55

her mind is

1:06:58

always malaise And I mean, I guess

1:07:00

it could just be for the the

1:07:02

nuclear factor. So there she's

1:07:04

saying that she wants to get to the dragon pit and

1:07:06

he's like, no way. They'll back to you there. Plus, you

1:07:08

won't get past the gates. It's ridiculous. Look, come

1:07:10

on, we gotta get to the riverfront and find

1:07:12

a ship. So he's got a, like, a really

1:07:14

half baked plan. He doesn't have shipped. It's just

1:07:17

like we gotta get out of here. This is

1:07:19

our best bet. And before

1:07:21

they can really

1:07:24

figure out what's going on. All of a sudden, everybody's being funneled in one

1:07:26

direction and gold cloaks are just

1:07:28

pushing all the the small folk

1:07:31

through the alleys and they're

1:07:33

like holy crap, they're just caught in like a sea

1:07:35

of people. Mhmm. And they're

1:07:38

being funneled to the dragon

1:07:40

pit, like sheep to the slaughter. And we would

1:07:42

see a few sheep being pushed around to

1:07:44

it just to really

1:07:46

hammer that home. Pretty

1:07:48

pretty poetic. Yeah. Yeah. And before they

1:07:50

know it, they're separated just by

1:07:52

the sheer mass of

1:07:54

people and Rainey's is

1:07:56

further ahead from Eric, and he's

1:07:58

shouting for people to get out of the way,

1:07:59

and the bells are tolling.

1:08:02

And their he's unable to catch

1:08:04

up with their and then it cuts

1:08:06

to Alison and Egon who are

1:08:08

writing in a letter or as

1:08:10

the gold, quote, quote,

1:08:12

call it a a wheelhouse

1:08:14

in they're shouting at them. Make way for the royal wheelhouse and

1:08:21

they're talking. And we had this

1:08:24

similar shot in the episode with

1:08:26

the hunt back in the day

1:08:28

so long ago at this foot,

1:08:30

where Vocera is sitting on the left, where Eggon is sitting now and Reneera and

1:08:32

Allison were both

1:08:35

sitting on the right. So

1:08:38

it's like, oh, man, you can see,

1:08:40

like, how things have changed since that time, same camera angle and

1:08:42

everything. And they're discussing about what's going on and how

1:08:47

Aegon sees right through this. Alison tells him, no, it

1:08:49

was his last dying wish that

1:08:52

that you should be the

1:08:54

king and he's like, balls shit. My

1:08:56

father never wanted this. He had twenty years

1:08:58

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

1:09:00

He could have changed

1:09:02

his mind, but he didn't.

1:09:05

because he didn't like me, which is true, probably --

1:09:07

Mhmm. -- because he's a little shitbag. He knows the truth.

1:09:09

There's zero chance of

1:09:11

this being true. that

1:09:15

in his final breath, he whispered that

1:09:17

egg gun should take the throne.

1:09:19

Nope. And so she

1:09:21

pulls out the dagger and opens up a box

1:09:23

and he's like, do not toy with me mother.

1:09:25

And, yes, it's like only at

1:09:27

this point is he

1:09:29

does he take her seriously? Yeah. And he's got

1:09:31

on his his best black outfit with his

1:09:33

kinda gold dragon on it, tight,

1:09:36

and he's got his

1:09:38

cape, he's got his gloves, I don't

1:09:40

know if he hasn't won't hear, but

1:09:42

at the coronation, he has on his clothes. And, you know, he's in the horse's love, you know, the

1:09:48

spirited to the dragon pit, and he still doesn't

1:09:50

take it serious. Like, is hap whether you take it seriously or

1:09:52

not, dude, is

1:09:55

happening. Yeah. He doesn't comfort

1:09:57

I mean, it's almost like he doesn't comfort him that it's really happening until she

1:09:59

shows him that I

1:09:59

had a different read on this.

1:10:02

I I feel like he knows it's

1:10:04

happening But

1:10:07

when he sees the dagger, he, for a

1:10:09

for a moment, begins to take seriously

1:10:11

her claim that it

1:10:13

was Aegon's wish, and the dagger

1:10:15

to him like, a gesture of love

1:10:17

from his father, something that he

1:10:19

hasn't felt in forever

1:10:21

because they've been at

1:10:24

odds and divest Harris knows he's a

1:10:26

a shit bag like I said like I said. So he sees the dagger and he's like, oh,

1:10:29

my my father

1:10:32

really did. want me to do this and

1:10:34

appreciates me and loves me. And so that's what I thought at this moment. And then she's telling him, you

1:10:36

know, he picks up the

1:10:38

dagger like it's a first you

1:10:41

know, time his father's ever loved him and

1:10:43

looking it. your your grandfather of the hand is

1:10:46

gonna try to get you to kill

1:10:48

Reneera. to

1:10:51

put them to the sword, you have to reject it. We we must

1:10:53

not rule with cruelty and callousness.

1:10:55

We we, you and me,

1:10:57

you know, And for all

1:11:00

her faults, Reneera, as your sister, your your

1:11:02

father's daughter, you know, the half sister. And

1:11:05

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

1:11:07

and the moment up to her and he's like,

1:11:10

do you love me? You know,

1:11:12

like, I

1:11:15

love this. She's like, you imbecile,

1:11:17

but she smiles. That's what she

1:11:19

says. Yeah. No. You imbecile.

1:11:21

I'm talking about Like, how we have to rule

1:11:23

the seven kingdoms, prevent the war, send germs

1:11:25

to Rainier. We're not gonna kill her

1:11:27

because Otto's gonna tell you to do this and this

1:11:29

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

1:11:31

why because she's your sister. The the series

1:11:34

loved her very much. We're not gonna

1:11:36

kill her. Okay? Yeah.

1:11:38

Do you

1:11:38

love me? It's like,

1:11:40

You have this

1:11:41

old setup. Of course, I love you. I'm putting you on the iron throne. We've done all this.

1:11:43

We're losing the conversation. Do

1:11:46

you know what has

1:11:48

been to give you this

1:11:50

day. Yeah. Like, everything that doesn't I love that. I love that. Her reaction is, like, too soft.

1:11:56

It was like a heartwarming at a moment.

1:11:58

Like, you know, and she kinda smiles when she says that, we know

1:11:59

that she,

1:12:02

you know, she's been very hard with Aegon, you know, with all depravity

1:12:04

that she's had to cover up and everything.

1:12:06

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

1:12:08

Exactly. It's still her

1:12:10

son. She still loves him.

1:12:13

but just in the moment, she's trying to

1:12:15

get him to focus You're about be that's what focusing on.

1:12:16

It's like,

1:12:18

clearly, I love you. Damon

1:12:21

tells Vicerus in the throne room when they're fighting. Your word is

1:12:23

truth and law. Oh, yeah. When Aegon becomes

1:12:25

king, his word is truth

1:12:28

and law. So

1:12:31

she's trying to impress upon him. This is what

1:12:33

we need to do. Not kill right

1:12:35

here. Okay? No. Do

1:12:37

you love me? He's

1:12:40

just like, That's what you're hung up on. Like,

1:12:42

it doesn't even matter. You're about to be king.

1:12:48

So funny. And this oh,

1:12:50

this is when the the the watch captain is like Wakewave from the royal wheelhouse.

1:12:52

It's like and I'm realizing, oh, so

1:12:54

this is how you gather crowds for royal

1:12:58

announcements in Westeros. Yeah.

1:13:00

This way, you filthy peasants.

1:13:03

Exactly. You drive them

1:13:05

with Boston. Yep. and block

1:13:07

off every potential avenue of escape -- Literally.

1:13:09

-- forced them to a location. Literally.

1:13:11

You're seeingrainy's gets caught

1:13:13

behind one of the royal roadblocks And then

1:13:15

as some horse loves, you know, speeds passed to citywipes. Let's

1:13:18

her go. Yep. So perfect

1:13:20

transition. Oh, this reminds

1:13:22

me of it's like

1:13:24

when It's like Sansa and Bayless

1:13:26

are heading north on the Kings Road and Brienne and Aria are kinda hiding

1:13:28

or the Hound and

1:13:30

Aria are like lurking nearby.

1:13:33

And they kind of, like, cross paths and they see the carriage go by, I think. But, like, they're

1:13:35

just so to to connecting,

1:13:39

but they don't. because

1:13:42

Ari is lost at this point, like, long

1:13:44

lost. Right? Mhmm. Mhmm. Yeah.

1:13:46

Pretty

1:13:46

crazy. And then as soon

1:13:48

as the royal carriage goes, passed, they

1:13:50

reopened the street and then continued to

1:13:53

literally herd all the

1:13:55

small folk up the hill

1:13:57

towards the Dragon pit. And this

1:13:59

is

1:13:59

when Rainy's Renise realizes that they're going to

1:14:02

the dragon pit and a look, like, a smile crosses her face and she's like, yes, this

1:14:04

is exactly where

1:14:07

I wanna go. and I have cover

1:14:09

with among all these billions of people, I'll be able to infiltrate

1:14:12

and and hopefully

1:14:15

exfiltrate. Yeah. Yeah. And

1:14:17

so then it cuts to outside of the dragon pit and we get a

1:14:19

cool overhead shot of

1:14:22

the entry way and Yeah.

1:14:25

The people funneling up and through the different paths. And at this point, the small

1:14:27

folk have given up resisting and they're like, I

1:14:29

I guess we're headed to

1:14:31

the dragon pit. and

1:14:34

they're all just kind of lumbering along and

1:14:36

we enter and auto is telling them the situation that

1:14:38

it's a sad day, the king is dead, viserus

1:14:43

peaceful. We get that that name, a new moniker for

1:14:46

Vocera's again. But it's also

1:14:48

joyous joyous

1:14:51

day. for as his spirit left us. He whispered his

1:14:53

final wish that his first born

1:14:55

son, Aegon, just

1:14:58

should succeed him. and the crowd is kinda like, oh, like,

1:15:00

they're not really quite sure how to

1:15:02

react at this point, but they they

1:15:07

applaud and He calls the guards and a procession of guards

1:15:09

arrive for a dramatic entry for

1:15:11

Aegon, forming a

1:15:14

a double two lines and crossing

1:15:17

their swords made me think of

1:15:19

Alison Wonderland when the queen

1:15:21

is arriving and all

1:15:23

of the the playing cards have their staffs

1:15:25

of, like, clubs and stuff and they cross them and I think or maybe I'm

1:15:28

just hallucinating this

1:15:30

in my memory.

1:15:32

Come touch.

1:15:34

Hurdown. 1234I

1:15:38

take that bait. I had to

1:15:40

check. but it's so

1:15:42

cool. Eggon comes walking through and the trumpets player and they sort of echo throughout

1:15:47

the pit. in in a really cool,

1:15:50

like because it's a big cavernous room. Like, you know, it's huge. That great

1:15:52

acoustics. Definitely.

1:15:55

And Otto is nervous at this point, like, oh, no.

1:15:58

This is really gonna is it

1:15:59

gonna happen? And air gun

1:16:02

comes walking through on the swords.

1:16:05

swoop down behind him as he

1:16:07

of I think it's sorta, you

1:16:10

know, kinda

1:16:10

symbolizing we're all on this

1:16:15

journey. Like, we're past the point of no

1:16:17

return and there's no going back. But

1:16:19

that's a good --

1:16:21

Really good way to look at that.

1:16:23

So hang on. There's no going back for Allison and Otto. There's

1:16:25

no going back for Re nora and

1:16:28

Damon. There's no putting

1:16:30

the genie back in the They've

1:16:32

crossed the Rubicon. They have crossed the

1:16:34

Rubicon. They have anointed and crowned a god. and

1:16:39

you served the iron drum. Oh, toothpaste is not going back in a

1:16:41

tube, but this This is it. This

1:16:43

is it. Really cold

1:16:45

metaphor. It's so crazy.

1:16:48

Yeah. So you know, for

1:16:50

Aegon, I mean, he's the king now. And even you kinda come to embrace it there before Rainy's, you know, his

1:16:53

moment in the

1:16:56

sun. But

1:16:57

But

1:16:58

for everybody in the story, like, this is the point of no return.

1:17:00

I mean, there's been a lot

1:17:02

of lines

1:17:02

in the sand, you know,

1:17:04

Allyson

1:17:06

coming at Rainier with the dagger at Driftmark.

1:17:09

There's been a lot

1:17:10

of things that continue to escalate

1:17:13

it, but actively

1:17:14

usurping the throne that was promised to Reenera is poor.

1:17:19

So that kinda

1:17:20

though

1:17:21

they're gonna Yeah.

1:17:24

That's the line. And it's, you know,

1:17:26

it's a it's a cool it's a

1:17:29

cool, you know, visual thing

1:17:32

for

1:17:32

them to do. And it's like, don't

1:17:34

blow your sword too fast. Manuel gives

1:17:37

king egg on a haircut.

1:17:39

Yeah. But, you know, it's pretty pretty crazy. And there are

1:17:41

there are movements like,

1:17:42

you know,

1:17:43

in drill and, you know, we in

1:17:46

the Marine Corps, we didn't reduce, like,

1:17:48

The drill instructors, like, they one guy had a sword

1:17:50

and a whole formation, and he marches around with a sword. But anyway, like, when the silent droople

1:17:53

tune, they have rifles with

1:17:55

bay nets on them. but

1:17:57

their movements for us, light all, have

1:17:59

to be perfectly in sync. And The designed the drill. Nice. The marine

1:18:01

drill stuff. He took them

1:18:03

from being, like, mess

1:18:06

and made them drill champions. Excellent.

1:18:09

So they

1:18:11

the movements

1:18:12

here, you know, with the swords as

1:18:14

far as each pair, as they lowered it,

1:18:16

know, their timings all seemed pretty pretty much

1:18:18

right on. Then, like, when they march in and then they turn in

1:18:20

board and then draw their swords,

1:18:23

raise them, and then they they

1:18:26

raise the algorithm again as one. I

1:18:28

think once he comes through the tunnel

1:18:30

and then they, like, go to sheets

1:18:32

and they all sheet them. And it's

1:18:34

it's not perfect, but it's pretty good. I assume

1:18:36

most of those that was they had real

1:18:38

actors for that I mean, the end of the line, they may have kinda

1:18:41

filled in with CGI

1:18:43

in the background, but The crowd

1:18:45

looked amazing talking about, like, CGI, to create bigger

1:18:47

crowds. Remember there was that

1:18:49

ring of pat ring power, rings of power clip

1:18:51

where they had, like, a tiny crowd of, like, a hundred people

1:18:54

and it was just -- Yeah. -- they spent a million

1:18:56

dollars on this show, and it's just, like,

1:18:58

clusters of the same people all over the

1:19:00

place. This 1II

1:19:02

paused it. I looked around. I couldn't find any any duplicates. This crowd looked like shit. It

1:19:08

was awesome. A lot of them though, it looked like

1:19:10

it's like is there no, like, middle class because they all look like beggars almost? It

1:19:12

seemed like it's like a

1:19:14

softness in their ratty brown kinda

1:19:17

disheveled looking Yeah. It's the ones

1:19:19

at the front that are kinda getting glanced at. Yeah. No middle class in

1:19:21

Kingsland. I mean, there's just there's the lords and then there's the small

1:19:24

folk who Like,

1:19:27

there's no I guess, there's a middle class and small folk. It's all property.

1:19:29

So it's right at this moment

1:19:32

where auto

1:19:34

begins to speak and about how it's a privilege and good fortune

1:19:37

to be here to witness this

1:19:39

day, you start hearing the

1:19:42

queen's green dress theme And I

1:19:44

was like, oh, man, this is so cool. And

1:19:46

Ado was talking about how it's a new day for the realm, for the city, a

1:19:50

new king to lead us. watching crowd with

1:19:53

fascination as Alison kisses

1:19:55

Aegon's forehead and

1:19:58

they begin the ceremony. Yeah.

1:20:00

This

1:20:01

seeing Rainy's in

1:20:03

the crowd, like Aria.

1:20:03

Aria, as she's watching

1:20:07

Ned, at the seft of Baylore before

1:20:08

he gets beheaded. At this point,

1:20:10

Aria's hair had been

1:20:11

cut. Right? Yoren grabs her

1:20:13

from the crowd and then cuts

1:20:15

her hair right after

1:20:17

Okay. As he's walking by, he notices urine and he says, the statue

1:20:19

and urine goes and sees Aria up there and collects her

1:20:21

and he's the one that slices off

1:20:24

her hair. So

1:20:27

so but when she's standing on on the statue,

1:20:29

I mean, she's not as incognito

1:20:31

as Rainy's is here,

1:20:34

but we get, you

1:20:36

know, a girl or a lady in

1:20:38

the crowd, you know, who is lurking and kinda see trying

1:20:40

to see what's going on and what's

1:20:42

happening. Mhmm. And then Aria was powerless

1:20:46

to do anything about it. So it's not

1:20:48

the same as Game of Thrones. Like

1:20:50

George Lucas said, it's not history

1:20:53

or whatever. It's not the same,

1:20:55

but it transcribes you.

1:20:57

But here, Rainy's is

1:20:58

not powerless to change things

1:21:01

in what's going on. I mean, she is in the

1:21:03

moment as she was getting pushed into the dragon pit and down the streets of Kingslandi, but now she's

1:21:06

in the dragon pit. this is

1:21:08

where she wants to be. She kinda waits and witnesses and

1:21:10

kinda looks around for a little bit and sees, hey, God

1:21:13

and Christ is acting

1:21:15

as doing the thing. It's it's

1:21:17

it's it's, like, rubbing stuff on on Eggon's forehead. This may the warrior

1:21:19

give him courage, may the Smithland's strength, you know,

1:21:21

and it's at this point

1:21:24

that Rainy's makes for

1:21:26

the dragons. Yeah. She's like, I've seen enough of this. Let me go

1:21:28

let me go get my

1:21:30

my red girl. Hilarious too that

1:21:35

there's like no locked doors between the this

1:21:37

area and the dragon. It it might

1:21:40

it's fine because the dragons

1:21:42

wouldn't fit through these small passages

1:21:44

anyway. to get there human sized passages. But --

1:21:46

Right. -- and obviously, like, nobody's gonna be stupid enough to try

1:21:48

to go down there. And if

1:21:51

they are the extreme, so So

1:21:53

Yeah. Maybe they're thinking is who why does a dragon need to be

1:21:55

guarded? Yeah. Like, if if it's not a dragon

1:21:57

rider approaching him or

1:21:59

some other Dragon

1:22:03

keeper or other Targaryen Valerion, you know,

1:22:05

with the blood of old Valerio.

1:22:07

Yeah. They're probably gonna get it

1:22:09

cooked or eaten or both. So it turned

1:22:11

into toasted tarlies. Exactly. Tasted

1:22:15

tarlies man. What

1:22:17

did you say? So so yeah.

1:22:19

So so the septon Eustace, which I hadn't

1:22:22

forgotten his name, he's featured in

1:22:25

the boat, a fair amount, I think.

1:22:27

you know, he he anoints and basically blesses the king. And

1:22:29

then Christian is then so this

1:22:31

is is the

1:22:35

book accurate. takes egg on the

1:22:37

conqueror's crown and kinda proclaims the crown of the conqueror passed down

1:22:40

through generations.

1:22:44

Mhmm. With the

1:22:44

seven Bear witness Hagong to Hungarian is the true heir

1:22:46

to the iron throne. So they have to, like, they have to

1:22:49

state this

1:22:50

out loud and public

1:22:52

because

1:22:52

they're usurping the throne. Yeah. Exactly. And,

1:22:54

obviously, all of the small folk have been conditioned for the

1:22:58

last twenty years to

1:23:00

that

1:23:01

Raynira is the crown princess. Oh,

1:23:03

the small folk. Oh, there if

1:23:06

you make a song about

1:23:08

that. So

1:23:11

and I think through

1:23:12

this, we we kinda get

1:23:14

Eamon and Helena

1:23:15

and Allison

1:23:18

all kinda their kind of reactions as

1:23:21

as as coal is

1:23:23

making this

1:23:24

proclamation

1:23:26

the coal puts

1:23:27

the ground on his head, and that's

1:23:29

it. We --

1:23:30

Yep. -- we're, like you

1:23:33

said, we're across the Rubicon. And

1:23:35

the second that the crown goes on a gun, I feel like he looks like

1:23:37

a totally different person. Like, all of a sudden, he

1:23:39

looks pretty badass. Yeah. you

1:23:43

know, we've been kinda complaining about how he looks and he looks younger

1:23:45

than Eamon and he looks like Dwight

1:23:47

shrewd. But, like, I

1:23:50

think they cast

1:23:52

him for What

1:23:52

does he look like with with the Craig

1:23:54

on his crown? Yeah. He's because he looks awesome at this point. Yeah.

1:23:55

With the white,

1:23:58

you know, blonde

1:23:59

platinum wig. And the crown is like, okay.

1:24:02

What does he look like there? Exactly. And that's what they that's what they

1:24:03

cast for, and then they don't really

1:24:06

however he looks

1:24:07

without the crown on. That

1:24:10

is what it is. Yep. Who cares? You know,

1:24:12

we're just trying to get to the coronation. And

1:24:14

he kinda, like, looks at each one

1:24:17

of his family members and they all kinda

1:24:19

nod to him. What's your face?

1:24:21

Helena nods and, like, turns

1:24:24

away. And

1:24:25

Eamon, like, gives a

1:24:27

deep thoughtful nod

1:24:27

like I Eamon bear. I mean,

1:24:30

he almost doesn't move at all. I

1:24:32

mean, it's

1:24:34

it's like almost

1:24:35

and super simple little, like, almost like,

1:24:37

I don't wanna bow to

1:24:39

you, but, you know,

1:24:40

I at least have

1:24:41

to kinda move my head a

1:24:44

tiny bit. So a pretty nice

1:24:46

bow. Oh, yeah. And then I think when he's still he at at at this

1:24:48

point, he had stood back up.

1:24:50

But when he he was kneeling,

1:24:53

right

1:24:54

as they crowned Aegon,

1:24:56

the camera was kind of

1:24:58

from Aegon's right and Eamon's left.

1:25:02

and was kinda looking pat

1:25:04

like, through the gap in

1:25:06

between Cole and Aegon, and we were

1:25:08

seeing Eamon

1:25:10

specifically in one shot. the crown.

1:25:12

Watching the crown, and it looks

1:25:14

like it's just a cool shot and

1:25:16

what it's conveying to us that it's

1:25:18

Eamon is the one who really wants this.

1:25:21

the one who's getting the

1:25:23

Yep. too. so up and Kristen

1:25:29

proclaims, all hail, his grace, egg on, second of his name, king of

1:25:31

the angels and the Royinar and the first men, lord of

1:25:33

the seven kings and the Perkin

1:25:35

of the realm. And

1:25:37

at first, nobody claps and it's just

1:25:40

quiet. And I'm like, oh god, what's happening? And we

1:25:42

were gonna get a Jim Bush moment here. Please

1:25:44

clap. somebody

1:25:47

please clap. Yeah. The Or like

1:25:50

in Shrek, I think there's a

1:25:52

guy with the cue

1:25:54

card. Paul, Yeah. They haven't met, like, Saturday night live and

1:25:56

stuff like that too. Apause. Apause.

1:25:58

Apause. The red blinking light, gun craved

1:26:00

that love and affection from his mom

1:26:02

and dad and never got it. to

1:26:05

this level because he's a psycho, but

1:26:07

now he gets it amply from the crowd and this type of positive reinforcement

1:26:12

for psychopath could have catastrophic consequences. You

1:26:14

know, you don't want somebody like this to to

1:26:17

be reinforced

1:26:20

positively to positively to think that they can

1:26:22

just do whatever they want and it's good and people love it. because man, it could

1:26:24

it could really start

1:26:27

doing some crazy stuff. We

1:26:29

we were robbed a tiny bit from

1:26:31

the books. Basically, right

1:26:34

after

1:26:34

they crowned him, It's

1:26:37

like the crowd is silent for

1:26:39

even longer. Oh, no. A lone voice says,

1:26:42

Long lived Queen Reneera or something like that.

1:26:44

Oh, shit. And

1:26:47

then finally, I think the something

1:26:50

happens, and then the the crowd

1:26:52

finally starts to come

1:26:54

around to Aegon. Damn. It's

1:26:56

crazy. So yeah. And then

1:26:58

egg on as the crowd screams, egg on stands, so this arms outstretched.

1:27:00

Just basking in

1:27:03

the glow of glory

1:27:06

and love and affection and Alison smiles.

1:27:31

And it says Aegon is standing there basking in the in

1:27:33

the love of the crowd, and they're

1:27:35

screaming, chanting. Aegon, the

1:27:38

king, long live Aegon, The

1:27:40

crowd goes well. It's at this moment that all

1:27:42

hell breaks loose in the beast beneath the boards, busts

1:27:47

up through them. Boom. Good. Remember

1:27:50

what Alison said to

1:27:52

Rainy's ring the bell

1:27:54

when you have your answer?

1:27:57

I shouldn't This is Rainey's ring in the bell. Here we go. Yeah. Ring a

1:27:59

bunch of the bells of the king's

1:28:01

landing citizens and a giant

1:28:04

cloud of dust

1:28:07

and smoke and debris and chunks of

1:28:10

rock flying everywhere, a

1:28:12

whole section of the floor

1:28:14

is devoured into a gaping hole.

1:28:17

and people are flying all

1:28:19

over the place as Maylies the

1:28:21

Red Queen with with with Rainy's

1:28:23

strides jumps up through

1:28:26

the ground and starts spinning around and

1:28:29

erailing and his tail is

1:28:31

sweeping through the area and through

1:28:33

the smoke. We could see people

1:28:35

flying in every direct and falling down

1:28:37

into the chasm where they'll inevitably be devoured by

1:28:39

other dragons? Definitely. That I mean,

1:28:41

that dragon pit was packed through

1:28:44

the deck. and

1:28:46

Maynard is huge and Maynard

1:28:48

is a big dragon and she just

1:28:50

bust through the floors and

1:28:52

I mean, just

1:28:53

people everywhere.

1:28:54

And like you said, the fact she's moving and swinging, she's probably crunching people with her feet. Her tail is just, like, whipping

1:28:56

people like crazy.

1:28:59

It's a complete pammonia. It

1:29:03

was pandemonium. I thought

1:29:05

we'd be killed or

1:29:07

even

1:29:07

worse. Hundreds of people

1:29:10

were probably killed at that

1:29:12

moment. And

1:29:13

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I

1:29:15

was thinking, like, 567 hundred, maybe a thousand. Maybe. It easily could be. Oh,

1:29:19

man. So brutal. It

1:29:21

is You've noticed that, hey, the the doors are? Super thick. It

1:29:23

looks like I mean, like, probably four or five feet thick,

1:29:25

but it's like, it's a

1:29:28

dragon pit. it's

1:29:30

there to keep the dragons in until

1:29:32

the dragon riders are ready to

1:29:34

mount them and leave. So I

1:29:36

was like, I was like, if they shut

1:29:39

the doors I mean, Rami's will just

1:29:40

blow through them. But if

1:29:41

she I mean, if she mailed if

1:29:44

Miley's like, cooked the

1:29:46

doors for, like, a long time. It would it would eventually met whatever, like, late season's iron. Or

1:29:48

yeah. They're just probably I

1:29:51

mean, I don't know. But

1:29:54

Anyway,

1:29:55

somebody from the outside thinks

1:29:57

it's a good idea to shut the

1:29:59

doors with thousands

1:30:00

of thousands of

1:30:02

people trapped inside with the wild drag I mean, not but a

1:30:04

rampaging dragon. Yeah. Yeah. And with the

1:30:06

royal family trapped in there within

1:30:09

I was like, and

1:30:11

I was like, No. Open the doors, you fool, you know,

1:30:13

be like, wait a minute. You you end the soul. You end the

1:30:16

soul. Open the

1:30:17

doors for the love,

1:30:19

man. That's pretty funny. totally

1:30:22

funny. And it's just chaos in the swirling dust and small focal red.

1:30:24

And so there's there the

1:30:26

scene doesn't necessarily have the best graphics.

1:30:31

throughout this sequence. The the the

1:30:33

smoke and stuff didn't look

1:30:35

really didn't

1:30:37

look quite excellent. the the distance shots of

1:30:40

Maley's, he kinda looked CG,

1:30:42

but it started looking really

1:30:44

good when he started

1:30:46

when he when Maley's face creeps up

1:30:48

towards the the daedas, towards the the royal

1:30:50

family. And man, it was so sick as

1:30:53

spikes, like, all over him

1:30:55

that point out and

1:30:58

it looked like a a And do you of scene in Park that's oh, it's

1:31:01

it's acid all

1:31:04

over the Numan's

1:31:11

face. Yes.

1:31:17

Super crazy

1:31:23

help. And most of the time, I think Sirex too, we noticed kinda they're, like, laid almost

1:31:25

straight back. So I think, like, they can

1:31:27

kinda I don't know. So -- Yeah.

1:31:29

-- I mean, but flare mackling now a

1:31:31

little bit at least. you know,

1:31:33

or a lot is really cool looking. I got that impression too.

1:31:35

Pretty interesting. And, like, a bird's feathers, how they can kinda angle

1:31:38

them with an ideal

1:31:40

pop puff up if she wants, and then

1:31:42

-- Yeah. -- you know, my chickens do that. They'll, like, kind of, ruffle up. Yeah. Yeah. They're like a cat can

1:31:47

maneuver its body to

1:31:48

make them to look weird and

1:31:50

more intimidating. But So as as Maly's head,

1:31:52

you know, gets closer and

1:31:54

closer to the day is, Allison

1:31:57

jumps in front of it. But

1:31:59

before that, she tells Cole, get Helena. That's her number one

1:31:59

priority. Not the

1:32:02

good news. She

1:32:03

just crowd in

1:32:06

the moment of, like, absolute peril

1:32:08

and danger, get Helena. Yeah.

1:32:10

The innocent. So coal

1:32:12

is beautiful as ever. instead

1:32:14

of jumping in front of Aegon and

1:32:16

trying to slay the dragon as, you

1:32:18

know, fairytale knight would do, he'll pay

1:32:20

as a queen, get a hell in

1:32:22

out of there. which are still just standing off of the side. Yeah.

1:32:24

And, like, conqueror's namesake towers

1:32:27

behind his mama. Yeah. Yeah. I mean,

1:32:29

Allison jumps in front of him, but

1:32:31

normally, you would think that you

1:32:33

bike. No mother to go. Mother to go. Yeah.

1:32:35

I've lost my little dragon. But Alison, you know, like

1:32:37

Ringy said, I have to credit you

1:32:39

for your boldness. she

1:32:43

stares down a drag. Yeah. And

1:32:45

it's sort of like a a

1:32:47

beautiful moment that

1:32:50

highlights the the motherly devotion and

1:32:52

sacrifice, you know, like willing to

1:32:54

die to protect her young. Just

1:32:57

on instinct, jumping in front of

1:32:59

the child is not child at this point.

1:33:01

But Yeah. Yeah. Her child. And there's, like, a

1:33:03

super tense moment where, like, they

1:33:05

can tell the dragons

1:33:08

about to unleash on them, and they're like,

1:33:10

oh god. And Alison closes her eyes, and it's like she's accepting

1:33:12

death in that moment.

1:33:15

Yep. And then Maylie's Start screeching

1:33:17

at them, but no flames come out.

1:33:19

Only air. And this is when

1:33:21

it looks like the dilophosaurus,

1:33:24

like it's spitting the

1:33:26

the the police and all over the room and -- Yeah. -- with this gangster. so

1:33:28

gangster. And

1:33:32

I was I mean, I was like, this whole

1:33:34

thing is new, but I'm like, there's there's no way knowing some of

1:33:36

what happens in the future. I

1:33:38

was like, there's no way she wrote

1:33:41

them. But Right. Right. She does. You know, just being

1:33:43

from team black. I'm like, oh, she's gonna roast them. roast them, you know. Tracar.

1:33:45

Rest your car. Rest your car.

1:33:47

Rest your car. say

1:33:51

it. Please say it. But she doesn't. Everyone

1:33:53

on Team Green here almost joined

1:33:56

Team Black if

1:33:58

they've been roasting from green to black. You know, they'd

1:34:00

be toasted collies,

1:34:02

toasted hotties. Crazy. And

1:34:04

so -- Crazy. -- the dragon,

1:34:06

like, closed its mouth in for

1:34:08

a brief moment, Rainy's and Alison make eye

1:34:10

contact, and Rainy's is kinda like like, you know,

1:34:13

I let you live, you

1:34:15

know, kind of moment And

1:34:17

before the dragon turns around and the doors are kinda closing, and Malaise just, like, leaps out

1:34:20

through the door. Like,

1:34:22

we haven't seen a dragon

1:34:24

jump before.

1:34:26

And he he he she, whatever, jumps

1:34:28

through the door and then takes

1:34:30

to the sky, leaving the

1:34:33

greens. still green instead of burnt black.

1:34:35

Yeah. Exactly. You know? Yeah. They

1:34:37

probably needed a new a

1:34:39

new

1:34:39

change of What

1:34:43

do

1:34:43

they call underwear and wear clothes? Small clothes.

1:34:45

Small clothes. They usually change

1:34:47

a small clothes.

1:34:50

Yeah. But It's cool. Like, have you seen videos of, like, an

1:34:52

owl or a Falcon, like,

1:34:54

fly between two people? And then

1:34:56

and, like, pull all their

1:34:59

wings all the way back and just go through this

1:35:01

tiny gap and then they re, you know, they reopen their

1:35:03

wings to land, like, on their the

1:35:06

handler's

1:35:06

thing or whatever? Owl's

1:35:08

specifically have, like, these blunt,

1:35:11

like, flat ended kind of

1:35:13

wings that give them hyper maneuverability

1:35:15

in the air. They can fly between tree

1:35:17

branches and, like, really impressive

1:35:19

stuff. And they only sort

1:35:21

of did that. she sort of jumped and then kind of

1:35:23

got through the door with her wings kinda

1:35:26

pulled back. And then she

1:35:27

zoomed through, you know, that

1:35:29

tight little space of the of

1:35:31

the closing door and, you

1:35:32

know, speaking of flight.

1:35:33

She got routed around the road.

1:35:36

Lokey. Oh, okay. OBE,

1:35:38

where where he is just

1:35:40

do it last around Dunkin'. I

1:35:42

think she's a truck help. Oh, hold her for taking out the YouTube

1:35:47

video. but she gets through the she gets mainly,

1:35:49

skits through the door and opens her wings.

1:35:51

He goes whoosh. Whoosh. get

1:35:54

some speed and get some altitude to get the

1:35:57

heck out of there. So epic,

1:35:59

dude. Rainey's

1:35:59

armor was super cool. Oh, you

1:36:02

almost look like somewhere. Let's store it with her

1:36:04

dragon. So she could store some

1:36:06

people underneath her area. Some people

1:36:09

thought she put it

1:36:10

on under her, you know, day medical

1:36:12

school. But her and

1:36:14

Eric kinda got out

1:36:16

of the

1:36:16

keep pretty quickly. You know,

1:36:18

we we presume. So I don't think she was sleeping in. Pretty quick.

1:36:20

Yeah. I don't think she would have had time to

1:36:23

it takes, like, twenty minutes to

1:36:25

put on your hockey equipment. So it's got a dick at least

1:36:27

to have a new armor. He's, yeah,

1:36:29

way worse than that. Exactly. So

1:36:32

people online are criticizing

1:36:34

Renee's for killing hundreds of citizen civilians, but

1:36:36

then not finishing the job and killing

1:36:38

the greens. But as Alison said,

1:36:40

just a couple of scenes

1:36:42

ago, reluctance to murder is not a

1:36:45

weakness. You know? Yeah. Plus there's a whole

1:36:47

element of kinslaying. Yeah. So it kinda

1:36:49

sucks. She didn't fertilize

1:36:52

everybody. But at

1:36:54

the same time, kinslaying is kind

1:36:56

of a big deal in Westeros. Right?

1:36:59

Yeah. I am kinslaying. Yeah. So

1:37:01

I don't know if he's, you

1:37:03

know, like, like to Baum said he's

1:37:05

an imposter. Emboster. He was

1:37:08

still crowned and

1:37:09

anointed as king just

1:37:10

in. So Should decide

1:37:13

and the countryside. No. That's it. You can The countryside

1:37:16

is killing

1:37:20

your parents. fracture side

1:37:21

is killing your sibling or I can't

1:37:24

remember. Anyway, my anyway

1:37:28

I think

1:37:29

the show runner and or the director or the writer or

1:37:31

somebody was saying that, basically, in that moment, Rainey's kinda looked

1:37:33

Allison

1:37:33

in the eye. And

1:37:36

even though

1:37:37

the even though they're gonna

1:37:39

be on opposite sides of this war. Rainy's

1:37:41

basically, you know, that's

1:37:43

another mother and with

1:37:45

her kids And ultimately, this is not

1:37:48

Rae's war to fight. Yeah. True.

1:37:50

I

1:37:50

mean, she's gonna take sides,

1:37:52

but It wasn't

1:37:53

for her. It wasn't Rainey's war to finish.

1:37:55

Definitely. Well, good people are bad that

1:37:56

she killed

1:37:58

a bunch of innocent civilians,

1:38:00

but there

1:38:02

doesn't seem like there's any other exit. You know,

1:38:04

the ramps were closed, so they they couldn't

1:38:06

go up the ramps. There's definitely no

1:38:09

other exits around underneath. So

1:38:11

the only way out it's either she's gonna

1:38:13

die or she has to escape and just cost a bunch of

1:38:15

innocent lives to save her own,

1:38:18

I guess. You know? Yeah. You

1:38:20

know, sucks to be small folk in Kings Landing.

1:38:22

Yeah. For sure. I mean, it's

1:38:25

kind of a a brutal take on it. But,

1:38:27

I mean,

1:38:27

it's just too early. All those

1:38:30

people, you know, get killed. But

1:38:32

the only thing cooler that would've

1:38:34

made that thing cooler, I think, is if

1:38:37

she had, like, roasted the floor,

1:38:39

and it was, like, flames and dust,

1:38:41

like, almost exploding the

1:38:42

floor, you know, symptom of Baylor style,

1:38:45

Yeah. Like -- Oh. -- fire. Just in that way, so

1:38:47

you know, fire up and out. And then, like, burst through the fucking ass

1:38:49

floor. Yeah. That would've been

1:38:51

tight. It was Pretty

1:38:54

awesome. Yeah. Definitely. So as the

1:38:57

doors close, finally, the episode

1:38:59

ends focused on Alison who

1:39:01

sinks her head in relief.

1:39:03

considering the implications of all that has just happened with

1:39:05

Aegon standing behind her. And if

1:39:08

there's any

1:39:11

question in his mind as to whether or not she loves him. Now he knows the

1:39:13

answer. She stepped in front of a dragon to

1:39:15

shield him. You know? pretty

1:39:19

hardcore. Anything else you wanna add about this

1:39:21

episode overall? Yeah. I

1:39:23

mean, it was just,

1:39:25

well, I wanna ride. and it just

1:39:27

the the high tower is trying to

1:39:29

control and constrict the

1:39:31

flow of information, and

1:39:33

they can't

1:39:34

keep massaria from finding

1:39:36

out you know, they can't

1:39:38

keep Rainy's, you know, underlocking key in her dragon. And, ultimately, it's

1:39:41

ultimately it

1:39:43

I mean, they so their plan worked

1:39:45

as far as holding the

1:39:46

news as tightly as they

1:39:49

could for that one day. and then finding

1:39:51

Aegon and installing him on the

1:39:53

throne. Yep. But for sure,

1:39:55

it's still the bill all,

1:39:58

you know, their plan

1:39:59

didn't work out exactly the way they wanted

1:40:02

because Maylies and Rainy's are, you know, presumably

1:40:04

gonna go to the to the black

1:40:06

side team black. to the dark side. Jesus. That's

1:40:09

not how that's

1:40:11

not the way auto

1:40:12

not

1:40:13

the way auto and

1:40:15

his counsel of

1:40:17

traitors drew up

1:40:18

their plan.

1:40:19

Oh, we forgot

1:40:21

to talk about Otto

1:40:23

rolling up joints. I

1:40:24

was at C. George. He's

1:40:27

doing that when I think before Allison

1:40:29

comes in,

1:40:31

and I won the battle.

1:40:32

I got Aegon. So I'm I think it's right

1:40:34

before that scene. Yeah. What the heck is he doing?

1:40:39

Oh, he's he's rolling up a Raven scroll. I have to send it

1:40:41

off. But he's putting wax on the inside

1:40:43

of it? Yes. I I remember you said

1:40:45

that, and I didn't somebody's in the

1:40:47

woods for it. I didn't look

1:40:49

for it on on when I watched it to Seth. I mean, when I y'all said that, I may have already rewatched it. So yeah. I

1:40:52

don't

1:40:56

remember. see, you know, watching it in close

1:40:58

detail to see if, obviously, the wax, you know, goes on the outside and

1:41:02

you put the little stamp on a stamp or sealing it ring

1:41:04

or seal whatever you do to it.

1:41:07

But even that number of

1:41:10

various knows how to on sale and resale -- Oh, yeah.

1:41:12

-- the sealed message. Mhmm.

1:41:14

The tricks of the trade.

1:41:16

Exactly. There has been

1:41:18

some same means with auto

1:41:20

high tower, you know.

1:41:22

I'm really pretty mad. Great episode.

1:41:26

Definitely.

1:41:28

Alright. stick with us.

1:41:30

We'll be right back

1:41:33

after a short break.

1:42:00

And

1:42:04

now

1:42:05

time

1:42:07

for Raven's calls.

1:42:11

More Tom

1:42:12

of the Misty Moore

1:42:14

says, sorry if this

1:42:16

has been said, beforehand,

1:42:19

but this show desperately needs comic

1:42:21

relief. Give us a Tyrion

1:42:23

or Braun character anything.

1:42:25

There's no humor at all.

1:42:27

to bring Levity to all the pain and death. I

1:42:29

think I'm enjoying this show overall, but

1:42:31

I'm not really sure

1:42:34

anymore. I

1:42:34

think we'll get some something. You know,

1:42:36

there's gotta be mushroom would have been that

1:42:38

if we'd gotten some some shrimkins Yeah.

1:42:42

You know, definitely some some some jets from mushroom in the fall. Personally,

1:42:44

I laughed at the

1:42:47

you imbecile, but Right.

1:42:51

If you think about that

1:42:53

from Aegon's perspective, it's pretty harsh.

1:42:55

But -- Yeah. -- it's

1:42:57

definitely not that weedy,

1:43:00

you know, territory and kind of character

1:43:02

to Maybe we'll maybe we'll get something I don't know. I think Damon's

1:43:04

funny. We just didn't have

1:43:06

any Damon this episode, you know.

1:43:10

Yes.

1:43:10

Yes. Some of his, you know, tracking up

1:43:12

during Elena's

1:43:14

funeral. Or you googly.

1:43:17

You googly. I mean,

1:43:20

it's like but it's like inappropriate funny. Like,

1:43:22

it's you can't be laughing right now.

1:43:25

True. And, like, I'm laughing at

1:43:27

Larryis, you know, but it that's always inappropriate too. Maybe I'm just

1:43:29

sick of the head. Thank you,

1:43:31

Lord, Tom. Always good

1:43:33

to hear from your brother. hopeed all as well in the

1:43:35

misty war. Sir Matthew of house rep

1:43:37

says here we are at

1:43:39

the precipice of

1:43:42

civil war and the penultimate episode of the first season of the of House

1:43:44

of the Dragon. With King Viceras gone,

1:43:46

Otto wastes no time in putting

1:43:48

his well laid

1:43:51

plans into motion. poor daughtering old master of coin, Lord

1:43:53

Biesbury comes to his senses just in time to get his head

1:43:56

smashed in

1:43:58

by Kristen Cole. drawn only amongst the Targaryens,

1:44:01

but between house cargill as

1:44:03

Eric realizes what a

1:44:05

monster egg on can

1:44:07

be and splits from his brother,

1:44:09

Eric, and tries to smuggle princess Renees out of king's landing, little

1:44:11

did he realize that

1:44:14

the queen who wasn't and

1:44:16

Malaise, the Red Queen, had things well under

1:44:19

control. Missari is quote about power. There is

1:44:21

no power, but what we

1:44:23

allow you to take is

1:44:25

very similar to Verus' power resides where men believe it resides. It's

1:44:28

a trick, a

1:44:30

shadow on the wall. and

1:44:33

a very small man can cast a very large shadow. Both believe that it is

1:44:35

a small folk that give

1:44:38

the kings their power and

1:44:41

use their trecheery to help the common people. Good point.

1:44:43

Good good connection there. I like that. I would try

1:44:46

to make a laris

1:44:48

joke but I'm afraid

1:44:50

I would get off on

1:44:52

the wrong foot. But Oh, nice. classic.

1:44:54

Thank you, sir Matthew. Great to hear you.

1:44:59

Lady Mary Patricia of House DeRigo

1:45:01

says, Alison standing up to her

1:45:03

dad, NICE, Larry's had

1:45:05

a foot fetish, whatever

1:45:08

float shirt. Whatever floats your

1:45:10

boat, man. Aegon is throwing some serious joffrey vibes. Yeah. I think

1:45:12

she means at the end when

1:45:14

he's kinda getting high on power.

1:45:17

Yeah. Rainy is a sick badass. I love her. Husband thought it

1:45:19

was a slow episode, but the tension just

1:45:22

kept building and building. So

1:45:26

much tension. So much tension. Good

1:45:28

to hear from you. Ladies and

1:45:31

Mary, thanks for writing in. and

1:45:33

Lord Joey of How'spool posted a picture of the guy leaning

1:45:35

out from behind the tree and licking

1:45:39

his lips like like he's eager

1:45:41

and the caption says Lara Strong thinking about Alison's feet

1:45:44

again. Oh,

1:45:47

man. So brutal. Definitely.

1:45:50

And

1:45:51

we have a voicemail

1:45:53

from Lord from archmaaster

1:45:56

stitches. Sir Duncan, Lord,

1:45:58

Zach, archmaaster stitches from the

1:45:59

siren aisle here. Yo. Well, I'm gonna

1:46:02

say, man, you gotta see this episode

1:46:05

was just not as gripping without

1:46:07

team, Ronira involved, you know, and I haven't came on

1:46:09

and Ronira in the

1:46:11

episode. It it

1:46:14

felt a little more one-sided.

1:46:16

Zach is great. Tell my favorite.

1:46:18

Definitely not battle the bastards or

1:46:20

some of the other episode 9s

1:46:22

we've had throughout the original series.

1:46:26

but definitely not

1:46:28

the weakest episode. And better

1:46:30

and better with the

1:46:32

differences from the book

1:46:35

to

1:46:35

nice shows

1:46:36

doing. I think what they're

1:46:38

they're doing with the white warms,

1:46:42

motivations for what's gonna happen, which

1:46:45

is a massive spoiler, so not

1:46:47

gonna go into that, but

1:46:49

it's coming And I I

1:46:52

think that Helena's demon on the

1:46:54

boards, a lot of people

1:46:56

would think, well, that's probably

1:46:58

just for any breaking through the the ground,

1:47:00

which it could be to to

1:47:02

do this awesome scene we saw

1:47:04

in this episode. But I

1:47:06

think it's tempting more towards something else.

1:47:08

Oh, that's all I can say about that, Reneath. But

1:47:11

Reneath man, she could have saved, like, HBO a

1:47:13

ton of money, you know. She could

1:47:15

have just roasted the whole council

1:47:20

there. And yeah. The team

1:47:22

Blackwood just won him when

1:47:24

a fell swoop. Yeah.

1:47:26

But I think and, yeah, I might have already talked about this,

1:47:29

but I think it's got to do more

1:47:31

with this was finally something in

1:47:33

her control that she could choose what happens instead of

1:47:35

it being chosen for her by the

1:47:37

people and all that kind of

1:47:39

stuff. Interesting. Man, I noticed

1:47:42

in the opening that viserus

1:47:44

symbol filled with blood. So I

1:47:46

thought that was cool. Yeah. So it changed the stuff. And then it went down.

1:47:49

And you could

1:47:52

see lainas, demon on

1:47:54

the boards, a lot of people would think, well, that's probably just for an East breaking through the

1:47:56

the ground, which

1:47:59

it could be to

1:48:01

to do this awesome scene we saw in this episode, but I think it's tempting more

1:48:03

towards something else. Oh, yeah. It's

1:48:08

like say about that, Reneath. But Reneath man, she could

1:48:10

have saved, like, HBO a ton of money, you know. She

1:48:12

could have just roasted

1:48:15

the whole council there. And

1:48:17

Yeah. The team Blackwood has won him when I fell

1:48:20

swoop. Yeah.

1:48:24

But I think and you all might

1:48:26

have already talked about this, but I think it's got to do more with this was finally something

1:48:31

in her that she could choose what happens

1:48:34

instead of it being chosen for her by the people and all that kind of stuff. Interesting.

1:48:36

Man, I

1:48:39

noticed in the opening that viseris' symbol filled with blood.

1:48:41

So I thought that was cool.

1:48:44

Yeah. So it changed the stuff.

1:48:46

on. And then it went down

1:48:48

and you could see from the high

1:48:50

tower of Allison's little sigil in the opening that there was four bloodlines.

1:48:54

So they did hint

1:48:57

at -- I can't hear you. -- dark hand or dankun or something

1:48:59

like this. That's really good. work good. Dankun. Dankun. can't

1:49:02

be except that that he's the

1:49:04

baby. Ronald

1:49:07

to even be a baby at this point.

1:49:09

Yeah. Probably not. But yeah,

1:49:12

man.

1:49:12

Again, not

1:49:13

as all over

1:49:16

the places as I would

1:49:18

hope it would have been who's very concentrated. I felt like the whole thing was kind of like

1:49:24

a wears Waldo finding Aegon episodes, which again

1:49:26

in the middle of the season might have felt a little better,

1:49:28

but being the penultimate, I

1:49:30

was a little disappointed in that.

1:49:34

God, I still hate Aegon.

1:49:36

Fuck this guy. You've done kids

1:49:38

with filed teeth and their nails

1:49:40

sharpened and stuff like that with,

1:49:42

like, how sigils on their like, fighting

1:49:44

in a pit. It's so crazy, but then there

1:49:46

we go. The high towers, you know, just already

1:49:51

breaking their I say, I mean, they still could

1:49:53

put into the fighting bits, but I doubt it. But they

1:49:55

they burned the White Worm's

1:49:58

mansion there. So don't think they're gonna stay true their word. And

1:50:00

I felt really bad though, you

1:50:02

know, for Allison, you know,

1:50:06

guys. The the book makes it seem like she's

1:50:08

so involved with all the archiving

1:50:10

and everything that's going on with her

1:50:12

council, and you can see that she wasn't

1:50:14

privy to most of it. And she's actually upset

1:50:16

that, you know, they're that they're just

1:50:19

continuing just using her more and more

1:50:21

as a pawn. Maesters gave her a pawn.

1:50:23

other's game and the lannisters are all

1:50:25

involved and everything. So Damn

1:50:28

lannisters. But I

1:50:31

did hear that all those prescreeners that go

1:50:33

out all these YouTube channels and stuff

1:50:35

like that, that none of those

1:50:37

went out. for this final episode. So

1:50:39

-- Oh. -- which is cool. Yeah.

1:50:41

That is cool. get the experience

1:50:43

with with the whole world. And I think

1:50:45

something big is gonna be coming if they're not gonna you know, something that's not in the books. Like, this

1:50:48

whole rainy

1:50:53

face off with the the king's coronation

1:50:55

and all that and the dragon pit.

1:50:57

None of that's in the book. So

1:51:00

that's really if

1:51:03

they're gonna do something like that, only even larger, then

1:51:05

I'm good. because, like,

1:51:07

the I can't remember

1:51:09

what time at the Bob Kingsgaard guy. I

1:51:11

think he dies way early on in the book, and

1:51:13

he's not dead right now. So, obviously, he's gonna do,

1:51:16

like, embarrassed and sell me, it looks like.

1:51:18

Oh. Yeah. Go to regularity.

1:51:20

it seems I don't know. Again,

1:51:22

that's all uncharted territory, which

1:51:25

I love. Again, better and

1:51:27

better differences between the book and

1:51:29

the show. The show is just so

1:51:31

much cooler. And I'm ready

1:51:33

for next week. Alright.

1:51:34

Great to hear from you.

1:51:37

Archmaaster stitches. Always get great feedback.

1:51:39

Awesome feedback. And, yeah, a

1:51:41

little bit less crazy than I expected the

1:51:44

penultimate to be as well. But it

1:51:46

was gripping in its own in its

1:51:48

own way. The tension was super

1:51:50

thick. So I ended up really liking a lot. And I to mention just how I love the

1:51:55

the design of

1:51:58

Maley's, the Red Queen,

1:52:00

Renee's dragon, red with little

1:52:02

white spots and stuff. It's just

1:52:04

just a really cool looking

1:52:06

dragon overall. really

1:52:07

the awesome

1:52:10

awesome.

1:52:14

your sister, your your father's

1:55:50

daughter. Do you love

1:55:52

me? you

1:55:53

you imbecile

1:55:56

imbecile.

1:56:07

That means you've seen all

1:56:08

previously episode airs,

1:56:11

all previously

1:56:12

aired.

1:56:15

Season one

1:56:17

episode nine, the

1:56:19

group council. This is

1:56:21

a little, like,

1:56:23

since I don't like the green. The green

1:56:26

calendar. Well, I

1:56:29

mean, council. We're in

1:56:31

little black boots slow

1:56:33

it, little leather blue little

1:56:36

little little little leather boots. Little leather boots. If Allison,

1:56:38

you know, is as pure as the wind driven

1:56:40

snow, she

1:56:43

liked it think. I know. because I know To

1:56:45

say you mean, I wrote all the

1:56:47

names down. Thirteen.

1:56:50

Thirteen platters. Thirteen schemers.

1:56:53

darkening cuts. Billing in for me today

1:56:55

is the tweet. Nice. And thunderously rolls.

1:57:00

Mhmm. Give me

1:57:02

a mic check. As the Canadians would say, beauty a.

1:57:08

So basically,

1:57:09

What's the, like, the law of

1:57:10

privacy? That's a

1:57:11

different thing, but I was trying

1:57:13

to think of a smart

1:57:15

thing

1:57:15

to say. Just

1:57:19

just to go going to

1:57:21

get my Ours. No. Nothing

1:57:23

to see here. You know,

1:57:25

the little boy. there was the Batman, a wreck,

1:57:28

Eric. Eric. I thought for a moment

1:57:30

there might be a dragon sitting on

1:57:32

the other

1:57:34

side. That would be

1:57:36

crazy. Let go for me. And I think as

1:57:38

as I carry him off, he says, do

1:57:40

you know who I am? It's always

1:57:42

it always cracks me up when

1:57:44

people drop that line. It's like it

1:57:46

doesn't matter. You're in trouble. Yep.

1:57:50

Probably didn't

1:57:51

get trial by the jury of

1:57:52

his peers. Yeah. Probably not. And

1:57:54

if

1:57:55

he can't get more feet

1:57:57

seats. Maybe he would

1:57:59

be able to set you might be loyal

1:58:01

to them stanking feet. He has died and y'all are up to

1:58:03

no good. Y'all are up

1:58:07

to no good. That's, like, the first time I've

1:58:10

ever said y'all out loud, I think. Nice. Balsen, you know, has the right

1:58:14

of this She has the the temperament and thought process of, you

1:58:16

know, counting the cost of her people, you know,

1:58:18

more than, you know, most rulers do. He's

1:58:20

obviously way better fitted than Aegon would

1:58:23

be. Get out of here. I

1:58:25

may only be a young girl without knowing

1:58:27

the ways of war. That's definitely RIP

1:58:29

man. RIP New York City.

1:58:31

It's so awesome. Yeah.

1:58:34

But she has people in the in the keep, you

1:58:37

know. Like, her standards are blinking

1:58:39

around. Everybody's at danger if

1:58:41

if massaria is angered.

1:58:43

Alright. I gotta Hello? Hello? Yes,

1:58:46

sir. Sounds good for that. Stop recording here.

1:58:48

the recording he

1:58:51

Stop recording. Alright.

1:58:54

Nice. Actually, not honest. What the hell? You know,

1:58:55

I'm fucked

1:58:59

in the head. Eric

1:59:04

is the one that goes

1:59:06

black and never goes back. You

1:59:11

know what you gotta do if you want answers. You know how to get them.

1:59:13

Take them shoes off. We're doing the thing. This

1:59:15

is where she

1:59:18

takes the stockings off. Oh, so, you know, it's really getting serious.

1:59:20

Out of my way, I

1:59:22

will not let this trickery stand.

1:59:27

trentery. The greens are cregress. Totally. This

1:59:30

way, you filthy peasants.

1:59:32

Exactly. You drive them

1:59:35

with horses and whip. It's weird

1:59:37

to talk about poop in terms of

1:59:39

favorites, but bird poop is the

1:59:41

best poop because it

1:59:44

doesn't stink. at all.

1:59:46

You know, and it just Yes.

1:59:52

Exactly. My favorite my favorite

1:59:54

Pope -- Oh. -- Nest. So they're really, really

1:59:59

making Allison like, cersei in terms

2:00:02

of the music. That's what the music is telling us that these characters are, like, parallel

2:00:04

characters.

2:00:07

hi

2:00:08

This is Rainey's

2:00:09

ring in the bell.

2:00:12

Mainly sorta did

2:00:15

that. she sort of jumped and then kind of got through the door with

2:00:17

her wings kinda pulled back. And then

2:00:19

she zoomed through, you know, that

2:00:21

tight little space of the of

2:00:23

the closing door. and, you know, speaking

2:00:25

of flight. She

2:00:26

got routed around the room. Lokey,

2:00:28

for our COB,

2:00:31

where Lokey is just doing

2:00:33

laps around bunking. I think she's a jerk out.

2:00:35

It all splice that earlier as well. We're

2:00:38

all out of order.

2:00:42

Do you

2:00:45

love

2:00:46

me?

2:00:49

Make

2:00:51

way Make way for the royal wheelhouse, or say,

2:00:53

make make way for the

2:00:55

royal horse law.

2:01:00

Whether

2:01:00

it's Kroger simple truth turkey or

2:01:02

mac and cheese with Murray's English
