    I think the best part is Ser Simon constantly barging in on Daemon’s room.
  • The scene immediately cutting to Daemon sitting forlornly on a rock going "i didn't think they would be so eager to die" just cracks me up 😂 Daemon is so unintentionally hilarious
  • The fact that none of the small folks believe aegon actually killed melys was the topping of the sundae of his kingship.
  • @amf0078
    I swear Jace is the blacks saving grave he got an army from the north and Erie and treated with the Freys to open the crossing to allow his army from the north to intercept the greens army in the riverlands and then to top it off he gave his mother the idea about people with distant dragon lord blood that could possibly ride their largest unclaimed dragons under dragon stone.
  • When they peel the armor off Aegon, I imagined it like peeling the scales off a dragon perhaps.
  • The scene with Helaena asking "was it worth the cost?" was very reminiscent to me of that heartfelt scene in Infinity War where soulstone-world child Gamora asks Thanos "What did it cost?" 😢
  • @Mrempoleon100
    You can say Aegon is in"Aegony"? 😀 Ok im letting myself out
  • @monke815
    I cant be the only one who saw Alys disappear behind Simon
  • Aegon gonna need an Iv of milk of the poppy on stand by for the rest of his life.
  • @CreyParkFilms
    My mom from Finland always called the hour between 3 & 4 am the hour of the wolf.
  • @allenmusic9
    I thought the duck or goose conversation over the table was a call back to Laenor and Rhaenera’s “preferences” when agreeing on their engagement
  • "I did not expect them to be so eager to die" is the Eleventh Doctor coming out in Matt Smith lol
  • @murkdirt284
    Bron said it in one of the episodes…you control the food you control the city bread becomes more valuable than gold..or sow Thing like that
  • Cabbage leaf compresses are actually a common remedy for nursing mothers dealing with mastitis pain, even to this day! The more you know
  • I feel like harrenhall isnt worth the trouble and maybe everyone should just stop wanting it.
  • @dadams11
    i thought the peeling off of the armor was more like peeling off a dragons scales. Across westeros, the people are seeing the vulnerability of the targaryens, a dragon without its scales.
  • Cheese dog is a trained rat catcher. He has been surviving on eating rats.
  • The starks are going to cross at the twins? it may work this time… but something tells me it won’t in the future
  • Cole has PTSD =Post Traumatic Seeing Dragons 😂😂😂😂😂
