    • Trivia
      Lyman Beesbury says "I am six and seventy years old". This makes him a rare example of a character being younger on the show than in the source material. In the books Lord Beesbury was 80 when he died.
    • Goofs
      Aemond says he is next in line to inherit the Iron Throne after his older brother, Aegon. Aemond would rank behind Aegon's children, or at least his two sons.
    • Quotes

      Queen Alicent Hightower: If it's Driftmark you want, you shall have it for you and your granddaughters to pass on as you see fit.

      Princess Rhaenys Targaryen: You are wiser than I believed you to be, Alicent Hightower.

      Queen Alicent Hightower: A true queen counts the cost to her people.

      Princess Rhaenys Targaryen: And yet you toil still in service to men. Your father, your husband, your son. You desire not to be free, but to make a window in the wall of your prison. Have you never imagined yourself on the Iron Throne?

    As we close off season one
    House of the dragon has made the smart choice to use our finale two episodes to explore both sides of this brewing civil war and what an episode this one is. Firstly, the performances here from everyone were just phenomenal Cooke, Beast and Mitchell being particular stand outs. Seeing the greens form their battle path to ensure aegons reign was thrilling and brutal to watch unfold.

    Giving the greens a whole episode really allowed us to further understand them as characters and what drives them. Otto is once again a leading force in this war and he makes for a great antagonist. I love how Alicent is still in the grey zone she knows what needs to be done but doesn't have the strength to do it. The father and daughter dynamic really works to this episodes strength.

    There was one scene in this episode that was just wired and if you watched it you know but ummm yeah.

    Very very good episode.
