interesting episode

Jenny D

She would be The Dowager Queen if Viserys dies and Rhanerya would be Queen

intan putri

that "geez" on 9:03 tho...

‎

has it been in the show already tho? or incoming?

Chad-gon Targaryen

No the showrunners just didn’t want to show him and a teenager having sex. That would make Daemon look like a pedo, which the showrunners can’t have.

Taylor Stuckey

He's gay for his niece lol.

Belle M

yep thats why he's loving his niece yup def gay smh

wilcox2146

lol wow. 1 scene was a brothel with drinking involved. Definitely could have other factors. Not to mention that's his niece - hope you don't have any... if that's the only option you have to explain what could be happening lmao.

peachpunishment

I cannot wait for the next episode

Colin Boehling

never seen the show... but isnt he obviously gay? lmao dude cant get hard for anyone... obv its a gay prob

zaria

the things you learn as a history nerd! luckily it comes in handy watching shows like this lmao

Lux Omnia Vincit

I watched GoT and HotD but I learned this just now... :D

zaria

To answer Carter's question about what would happen to Alicent, or what her title would be, if Viserys were to pass without her son being named heir. Right now she's queen consort, which just means wife to a ruling king. Once he died, if Rhaenyra were to stay his heir, Alicent would become a queen dowager (which basically just means a former king's widow). If her son were to have been named heir before Viserys died, and he died while the child was still underage or otherwise too young to be a king in his own right, she'd become a queen regent, which just means she'd rule in her son's name until he was old enough to become king and rule (or she could name someone else, like her father, to rule as regent in her place). Finally if her son was named heir and Viserys died when the boy was already of age, she'd become queen mother which is luckily self-explanatory 😂

Kayla Grabow

I joined pateron just for this need the next ep asap

Arctic_stark

I can't wait till you guys watch Game of Thrones. All this intrigue is dialed up to a 100. HotD characters are pretty tame compared to what we get in GoT.

Lana Pico

I never thought I would join a patreon but here I am haha... you guys are all so cute how much you're getting into this show! I have to admit I found my inner nerd with this show as well! Can't wait to see the season play out for you all!

Mei Nano

I will do full marathon today!

Mei Nano

Thank you! I will keep an eye on them because i am going to start today😁

Princess Zuma

Right! I can't wait 😩

Zakki

@Huxley Point isn't that Otto was pretty much right, the key factor here is also the intention behind his actions. Rhaenyra's virtue being put into question is, indeed, a political nightmare, and any wise advisor would warn the king about what happened. Otto had always been an efficient Hand of the King, even if always a bit self-serving at times (then again, most nobles at court in Westeros are at least a little bit), but at this point of the story, there's a clear conflict of interest. Otto isn't doing all these things out of the goodness of his heart and loyalty to the king/kingdom, he is totally waiting/looking for opportunities to advance Aegon's claim and will 100% undermine Rhaenyra along the way to do so. Rhaenyra knows it, Alicent knows it, the king knows it too. Since he was still intent on having Rhaenyra as heir, Viserys did the right thing for once by sending Otto away lol

Julian Quintero

I know. It hurts my soul when they are talking about the prophecy, knowing where it leads to towards the end of GOT because they sound so intrigued and invested in it.

Kwisatz

Them talking about the "Prince that was Promised" this episode just broke my heart

Uros Vesic

These are getting better and better. After all these talks about the prophecy, and clever dialog this show presents, plus good and realistic characters, ending of GoT gets worse and worse in my eyes. We could've had the best show of all time, but they ruined that for us.

Mitch

Ahaha I’ll give you guys more credit than that lol

Squidward's Grumpier Cousin

I hope they really did watch episode 5 right after this one, I need more HotD reactions so bad!

Wiame

Enjoy it , but careful tho if I remember correctly there is a few spoilers of HOTD in GOT

Branflakes

This show is way too lit. And only gets better

Dryden Tyler

Give us episode 5 also chincha for real

Ana

Good luck you sweet summer child. You're gonna love it

Brig Andrus

Fr tho the show is just so good

Brig Andrus

But I thought we only like fighting 😁

Mitch

The fact that yall are having 20 min discussions shows how good this series is, and I know yall are going to enjoy GoT even more.

Mitch

I mean got seasons 1-4 are the greatest tv to ever be aired

The Quadfather

Yea and I can’t wait for them to get to Game of Thrones!

Ana

No he wasn't lol. Otto is the worst hand ever.

ssj4rit

Ser Crispin more like Ser Crisp-in-Rhaenyra hehe

ssj4rit

Well he is certainly “crisp” and he went “in” this episode hehe

Autumn

I screamed when I saw that y’all had uploaded. I can’t wait for your reaction to the next episode! 😍

Diana Rodriguez ⛓️

yes lol

Anna

If y’all decide to watch GOT after this please please be careful bc they spoil HOTD in season four lol

TheSauceGuy

SORT OF SPOILER WARNING: The three wild dragons are mentioned by Daemon later in the show, which means we could potentially see them in the upcoming season. One of these dragons is known as the Cannibal and he's speculated to be larger than Balerion (partially due to him being free and eating other dragons). It would truly be something to see the scale of such a creature in the show.

TheSauceGuy

you are in for a ride, to say the least

⊰𝐝⊱⊰𝐚⊱⊰𝐧⊱⊰𝐚⊱

This show is soo good so far, I can't even.... My first watch as well, loving it

celery

i dont like much else about it tho im just saying

Poragami

With every episode we are getting closer to finishing HotD. And with every episode i'm more hyped for GoT lmao

Mei Nano

Once again, thanks for the reaction guys. If i am honest, I wasn't interested with GOT series at all. Now, watching with you guys HOTD I can confidently say that I am going to start watching GOT, (I never expect that....lol!) So thanks for that, it was a great reaction!

Wiame

Omg yess I would give anything to watch Robert vs Rhaegar but won’t complain about the conquest because I wanna see Visenya the badasss so baaad

Brittany Mitchell

I really love this series because it shows every character's goals/ambitions while also showing every choice (good or bad) that sent them on their respective paths. You gain an understanding of all of them whether you like the character or not!

Huxley Bennett

I don't think many people enjoy watching fictional incest. Thankfully that's actually such a small part of the stories

Huxley Bennett

He was still right with pretty much everything though

Huxley Bennett

All languages are created. I think his point is that they're not just lines that sound cool, there's a proper language behind it

Huxley Bennett

It's weird cause he absolutely was self-serving and focused on his own judgement rather than the King's, but he was also kinda right in basically every call we see him make

Ana

Omg thank you. A lot of people like to miss alicent's betrayal first. I want to say more but not gonna spoil. But agree 100 percent with you

BipolarKitten

Classic Studio Gek

Zakki

Right? I'm surprised that some people expected Rhaenyra to tell Alicent the whole truth in that case. Alicent is, first and foremost, Otto Hightower's daughter. Alicent literally married Rhaenyra's damn father because Otto made her worm her way into the King's chambers during the man's grief (which Alicent kept a secret for like a whole half-year), and she now has a son that Otto desperately wants to place on the Iron Throne instead of Rhaenyra. Those girls may be friends, but trusting Alicent with the truth, in this case, would've been an objectively stupid decision on Rhaenyra's part tbh

Jahari Fields

Rhaenyra, Daemon, and Viserys are my favorite characters simply cause of their unique relationship with each other

Ninaly

this series has got you guys giving the best discussions ive seen from you yet, really thoughtful and detailed. i credit it to the fact that the show gives you good enough content to get this dialed in

Wadzi

Hello fellow Aussie :-)

The Quadfather

If you see Viserys naked and say you wouldn’t, I know you’re lying. We all would lets be honest

Ashley

Not me SCREAMING at Viserys “Daemon doesn’t give af about the throne, he’s trying to save the Targaryen House you weakling!!” The Targ power move was always to Wed Rhaenyra and Daemon years ago. Get a football team of PURE Targaryens and nobody would f^ck with them. Instead Viserys allied with Otto over his brother and it broke the relationship. Viserys needs to grasp Daemon’s trying to piss him off out of anger/hurt. And be respectful that Daemon’s care for Rhaenyra stopped him from deflowering her. He has caused all of this. And marrying Otto’s daughter 🫠

celery

no i just don’t enjoy watching fictional incest hope that helps

Mitch

U have bad taste sorry

Princess Zuma

Next episode is unhinged 👌🏾

sushi

also cannon, the comment on Balerion's size is false. Valyria was the only region that had dragons and could control them and the Targaryens were just one house of many others who could do so. The doom of Valyria refers to an event in which the volcanoes in Valyria erupted all at once causing a massive fire that wiped out the entire region and all its dragons and people except Aegon, his two sisters, and their dragons. All prior records on dragons and Valyria have been lost in the fire so we do not truly know the sizes of other dragons or other houses who could control them like the Targaryens, but many speculate Balerion is not the biggest one that ever existed. Dragons grow bigger when they are allowed to roam freely, something they got to do in Valyria so no doubt there was definitely some bigger ones out there. If you pay attention throughout the show you will notice the Targaryens keep their dragons in a cave-like structure which prevents them from roaming freely which is why their dragons will probably never reach Balerion size.

BipolarKitten

Can't wait for you guys watch GoT. They have 3 episode with 9.9 imdb rate.

BipolarKitten

Since ep 2 i cant stop call Cole as Ser Crispin.

celery

Don’t know how I feel about this show after this episode tbh I’ve never really liked game of thrones so

Ana

I guess I'm biased Starks are my fav house lol. But yes Roberts rebellion would definitely be the sickest. Robert at his prime is a beast I need to see

alexis ♡︎

loving the long discussions on these episodes!! i lovee the moral ambiguity in this show. almost every character of importance we’ve met has made good and bad decisions. if rhaenyra hadn’t made such bad decisions this ep, i think her character would have fallen kind of flat honestly. but it’s because of these decisions that she feels so much more genuine and grounded to the audience. my girl was just tew horny and she knew she was gettin that hot d one way or another 😔

Londra H

I wouldn’t say I’m tired of the Targaryens, I def think the conquest should be adapted but man do I want to see Robert’s Rebellion way more 😭

Christian R Lewis-Batista

Lol not every kid is the same character 😅

sushi

Daemon is so cool and he gets even more unhinged as the show continues

sushi

Targaryens are the only ones in the realm allowed to wed family. They believe they have dragon blood and need to maintain it pure in order to control dragons which makes sense considering dragons can sniff out a Targaryen with their nose so there is definitely a connection there. Aegon the conqueror wed both his sisters and their kids wed each other if I'm not mistaken (it's been a while since I read the book) but I do remember it being a whole ordeal in the kingdom as it was an insult to their religion and overall just gross so they started a rebellion in hopes to overthrow Aegon and his family, buuuuuut they had dragons... pretty sure Aegon burnt a chunk of the kingdom with Balerion until they realized he was standing on business and just accepted incestuous Targaryen marriages, but they are the only ones allowed to do that.

Philbo

i was so locked in at the end when brigg was talking then the video just stopped haha im loving all these theories and speculations, ngl you guys are making this rewatch so damn enjoyable i speak for everyone when i say WE NEED MORE lol i really do hope you guys have the time to make this a twice a week drop especially since you guys are already half way done already.

kiiturii

so it's not a real language, it's a created one

Ana

Really? Ugh I'm so tired of the Targaryens 😩😩 I want roberts rebellion so bad. That's would be so sick Or the first long night with age of heroes.

Ana

I hope if you guys watch GoT you watch the lore and history videos after each season. They are so informative. The actors of the show are narrating as their characters and so bias in the storytelling it's soo genius

Ana

Otto did everything to serve himself and not his duty. Remember he's just a second son. Pay attention to all the second sons in this season. It's so much I wanna say. But I don't want to spoil too much. I'm gonna try to hold most of my thoughts until you guys are on episode 7. Last Rhaenerya doesn't owe Alicent the truth they just got back cool. Alicent betrayed her first 🖤

mixi

i love the parallels on alicent and rhaenyra’s lives and sex scenes — rhaenyra is a free spirit while alicent is trapped in a marriage (trapped ever since she was child to a man that’s probably as old as her dad) and forced to be a teenage mother

Wiame

and yes a Languge creator made the High Valyrian just for GOT universe , it has its own rules and you can even learn it on Duolingo

Ana

Yes the kings guard is suppose to be "celibate" but so many are not. Few men in the GoT respect their vows

Enma

no worries, thanks for the uploads!

Wiame

Btw just read that another spin off is in the work about Aegon's Conquest ! can't be more excited

Ana

So Daemon set that whole brothel thing up. He took her hat off so people would talk. He thought that would make viserys marry them. By playing on protecting her honor

Carrie

Jealousy is for sure there but Milly Alcock (Rhaenyra) said they purposely played up the romantic aspect of their relationship cause they felt the script called for it. Doubt GRRM intended this, but still interesting

Ana

I would have liked it if they gone that route but I don't think they are. I think it's just jealousy

Diana Rodriguez ⛓️

AYO MEGUMI SHIRT

Melizé

Such a great reaction ❤ I loved hearing all of your theories, can't wait for you too watch the rest 🙌🏼

Veronia

RIGHHTTT?!!😂😂

Melizé

Hahaha same!

GBuckets

in the game of thrones universe, little kids are used as spies and sources of information. There are hundreds of them in kings landing working for someone, that little kid was one of the spies working for Otto Hightower. Otto has a network of spies

Carrie

My favorite theory is that part of why Alicent is so offended by the allegations about Rhaenyra and Daemon is because she has feelings for Rhaenyra. There is SO much about them that’s giving best friend crush & I love that they played it that way. Unrequited queer longing for your former best friend is the only thing that could make this messy situation even messier

Stannis the Mannis

🧢 she was even laughing at Bracken’s jokes about her having a dragon

Diana Rodriguez ⛓️

Dawg

Diana Rodriguez ⛓️

Dani 💤

She was talking about the Blackwood boy 😭

Briaunna wyant

Just for clarification, Yes, the Targaryens do wed brother and sister. Rhaenyra’s own parents were cousins, and Aegon the Conqueror wed both his sisters. It was their tradition to keep their “blood lines pure” This helps them control the dragons. If Targaryen blood starts to dwindle they lose that ability. It is seen as “strange” by the other houses in the seven kingdoms and is only allowed for Targaryens. The rest of the houses at most will marry a cousin which is seen as “normal” for that time period

Jessy

i love that most of the anime nerds are also got fans

Stannis the Mannis

Studio Geck

Thank you for that!

Mysterious Figure

Oh man... I was so sure I wasnt gonna rewatch this with you guys because I was SO sure that this isnt rewatch material for me AGAIN... and you guys now are making me come here and tell you you are gonna have to start doing at least TWO episodes per upload of GOT because this is just not enough! The GOT universe is worse than drugs

Veronia

I wanna know what Carter said about daemon to brig😂

Shoelace Ace

I've been fiending for more house of the dragon all week

Dk

Sippin on that henny and plan b cocktail

Keith Reynolds

Also high velaryon is a real language as well as the dothraki in GOT they had a specialist come in and create them and all the actors had to learn them I watched a video on the subject not long ago, pretty sure you can also learn them on duolingo lol

Enma

And if Viserys were to name his son Aegon to be his heir and dies, Alicent would then be called the Queen regent because her son is the king but isn't old enough to rule, and she becomes the ruler until Aegon is of age.

Keith Reynolds

Facts Canon, everyone gotta lock in

Enma

To answer Carter's question on what happens to Alicent if Viserys were to die, Rhaenyra takes the throne since she is the heir and Alicent becomes what is known as a dowager queen. A dowager queen continues to enjoy the title, style, and precedence of a queen, but is no longer referred to as THE queen. She wouldn't have the same powers as the queen, but she still holds a decent bit of influence.

IchiGoat

this episode is especially important to the plot because it sets the events that are about to take place in the future. it’s the calm before the storm which next eps

IchiGoat

daemon took rhaenrya to the brothel to get back at the king but he stopped because he didn’t like that she was starting to take control of the situation so he couldn’t get it up and do the nasty with her. so no they didn’t have sex.
