who was the 3rd group?
no third group maybe otto just shows up to talk to white worm briefly?

i think its larys cleansing the city of the spies, so one of whiteworms stronghold not otto keeping his word. That one guy in black walking away looked very similar to larys henchmen burning down the castle with the other strongs.

Just caught up on this, not sure how I would rate it as it definitely had some strong elements in its favour but I struggled to give it my full attention, phone checking was fairly constant in this show but unlike more mediocre shows this did result in actual use of rewind.

Strong 7 to low 8 out of 10 I guess.

One thing, is how did the Triarchy keep pissing off people with dragons?

Am definitely invested for S2.

8.5 of 10. Knew that kid was going to die. Predictable just based on his TV time that ep. Also was dumb for his mom to send him and his brother out, knowing their in danger. Especially her first born.

Too bad they made it like it wasn't Aemond's doing. Pandering to fangirls I guess. He's a bad hombre.

glad they were able to work another disgusting birth scene and baby death in there. would have really been missed.

So that was the thing I remember from that extra scenes thing or whatever.

Some kid gets f'ed up by a bigger dragon.

Now who knows!

Really don't quite understand why Aemond was so freaked out by the fact Lucerys was dead.

Like...what was his plan chasing him with the giant dragon, just to scare the kid a bit then let him go home? Seems kind of nonsensical. You're not going to somehow mount his dragon and take his eye.

And +1 to the "did we really need the miscarriage scene to be quite that graphic"

TBH I was kind of disappointed by the ending - it's too big a cliffhanger/expectation when by all accounts the next season is years away - I'm all for the Rhaenyra gonna burn it all down plot, and I'd be super excited for the next episode, but there isn't one now. There needed to be more payoff to this season than just the one kid getting chowed down.

He obviously intended on some heavy handed bullying intimidation but actual killing was over the line.

The problem is when you're riding that giant dragon, I'm not exactly sure what bullying you can do. You're kind of either just there to scare him a bit (which he had already done) or kill him.

I did read one explanation - you can hear Lucerys telling his dragon "no, obey me" right before he shoots fire at the big dragon, meaning Lucerys didn't really mean for this to happen. Or maybe he decided to sacrifice himself to make him mom join the war? I still have no idea.

The big dragon then says ok, you're lunchmeat, meaning maybe both riders lost control of their dragons, which may be why Aemond was so shook - realizing he wasn't really in control.

However, there's absolutely never at any point this season that the dragons do anything but obey their riders, so this comes completely out of nowhere and doesn't make sense.

Yeah with subtitles it was obvious they lost control of the dragons. Though arrax or whatever deciding to 'poke the bear' was a bit ridiculous. Then again who knows if dragons care about self preservation.

Solid enough ep, daemon was right about everything.

It makes total sense, he wanted to bully the other rider and scare him, the other rider fights back by breathing fire at which point the bigger dragon says **** it and eats the other dragon. The rider of the bigger dragon did not want to go this far but his dragon lost it when attacked.

I dont get why you are making this so hard.

He killed him on purpose and they changed it to an accident in the show to appease certain people

Aemond hunted him down on Vhagar with the intention of killing him.
