Another really compelling episode.
On one hand, I hadn't expected certain stuff that happened here to happen until at least the next episode, but on the other hand, that excites me for what's to come. I've not read the book, so please don't smite me when I say I'm going in blindly to this series (huge fan of HBO's Game of Thrones though).
I really dug the way this episode was directed, especially the brothel scene. Claire Kilner did a really good job, and all of the performances from the cast are reliably fantastic. I've said it once and I'll l say it again; Ramin Djwaldi is a musical genius.
I also really enjoyed Alicent and Rhaenyra's scene. It'll be interesting to see how their relationship is handled.
All in all, great stuff. This is some top quality television.
