Eregion gets burnt to the ground in the most brutal way imaginable in the Season 2 finale of Rings of Power, as the city is being destroyed, Elrond begs the Orcs to spare its records. He calls them “The wisdom of all who ever dwelt in this place.” As if the Orcs even cared about that. Sauron would have spared those records but Orcs? They cannot be reasoned with, and it’s a good ask because if the custodians of the Elven knowledge are dying, and even Celebrimbor who could explain those records is dying, then asking that the papers be spared might as well be the best ask left. There’s nothing more difficult than recreating knowledge. For the walls they can be rebuilt within the shortest possible time. And then we get to the Lord of The Rings and Eregion doesn’t appear. So what happened to it? #ringsofpower #lordoftherings #lordoftheringstheringsofpower Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

When it comes to Maeve, she doesn’t need to tell everybody that she is planning a move against someone, including Conrad. Her quiet tactics and decision-making are so private that you won’t see it coming. And if we talk about smartness, Maeve is one of the most intelligent and manipulative characters in MobLand. She has been able to divert blame to people who didn't contribute to her bad decisions, and because Conrad has been accepting and forgiving her regardless of what she does, she is slowly losing respect for her husband. In my Conrad’s diagnosis video, I said Maeve could start moving behind his back someday. After this episode, I don’t think it is someday anymore. She is already doing it.

Oh my God. Episode 3 of MobLand season 2 is so fucking good, and pretty weird actually like with Jan and Maeve. I mean when Maeve laid her legs on Eddie on that bed? Gods be good, my dirty mind was playing tricks with me, but Maeve is Maeve. And hold on, did Frankie actually call for war? Or maybe something is really wrong with him, and Seraphina? I think we have a lot to talk about in this episode. I gotta confess by the time the episode ends, I was completely dumbfounded, my soul just went… puff. And ding, ding, where do we begin? So let’s start from the end right and bring it back to how we started. #mobland #moblandseason2episode3 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Episode 7 of Lanterns gives us a tiny glimpse into Hal Jordan’s family history and this kind of explains something that on the surface is unclear about Hal Jordan’s weakness. And now I finally understand why Hal Jordan does what he does. And don’t get it twisted, it doesn’t justify his actions but now everything is starting to make sense, which is why from now, nothing about him should surprise you.Interestingly, after watching young Hal, you now agree with me that this is actually where these things began. Hal didn’t become such a person because he was a Green Lantern rather perhaps all these behaviors we were seeing started long before the ring ever came into his life.

Conrad just got the kind of news a man like him can never afford to hear, and he answered it the only way he knows: he silenced the doctor and told him to destroy the evidence. During Conrad’s diagnosis, the doctor explains the kind of condition Conrad has in scientific terms, which makes him confused and overthinking. So Conrad asks the doctor, "What do you mean?" The doctor now breaks down the condition for him. The condition is in his brain, and it causes emotions to rise out of control when he faces a small problem. He will be irritated and have the desire to cause destruction. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The moment Tattersall had with Frankie In Mobland episode 2 at that nail salon was very frightening to me. While I was watching those words come out of Tattersall, my heart kept beating like a machine which is about to fail. Make sure to rewatch that part again, and you will understand what I mean. In his talk, he narrated a story about a man called François Ravaillac who eliminated King Henry the Fourth of France and was given the most brutal death experience ever publicly. What he calls the four hourses story. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

One thing I will be so shocked about which would make me scream out loud is to see a CEO fighting over seats with his own employees in his own office. Interesting right? Come along with me to Lanterns episode 7 which left me asking this question. Why is Sinestro on a dead planet? What exactly is he doing there? Honestly Sinestro is a man who seems to know everything. He is the master of the game, he knows and understands the Lanterns, the Guardians, he even understands Hal Jordan and somehow he is always like three steps ahead of everybody else. But shockingly he is seen on a dead planet not just bossing himself around but he is in need of a boat. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The bang that ended MobLand season 2 episode 2 is making our head spin, especially me, and then we’re asking if that bang claimed Bella’s life. But then that single word that Frankie says sends the message to Conrad at the restaurant while Bella is cornered elsewhere. As for Kevin, he has lost contact with his wife, and just as the Harrigans are clueless about what is going on, we are too. So the question is, has Bella been killed?

I can’t help but to find it interesting how everyone and things in Lanterns have meaning. So far, both humans and objects displayed in the show have a significant impact or meaning. Even Kerry’s gun has a meaning. Well. Speaking of objects, let’s look at what Hal Jordan locked away in a storage unit. Hal has a Vault and it has specific security requirements. This Vault doesn’t appear to be ordinary at all. It holds something that perhaps is the answer to many questions we have been asking ourselves. Episode 6 of Lanterns leaves us with a mystery of a murder and a Vault that needs a dead man’s live voice to open. I think that right now this vault holds the final clue explaining why Hal Jordan was so brutally killed by someone in 2026. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

With everything going in Mobland Season 2, with the Harrigan family falling and Harry's own family falling apart, I think Harry is quietly planning his way out, and everything hinges on his daughter, besides the Harrigans never really values him so why should he stay? It doesn't also mean he will defect to Kat, but let's see why I'm saying that here in this video Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Maeve and Gina didn't see eye to eye when Harry brought his family to stay with the Harrigans for Richie’s war to be dealt with. Maeve once stared in Gina’s face while making some horrible comments about her body. Gina has shifted reality from school to street business with Eddie, which is surprising to me. Actually, I never suspected her of indulging in street activities, especially the way she took her education seriously. Wih where the story is headed, Gina will become a formidable ally adversary in Mobland season 2 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hey, Silo fans. Maybe you have forgotten but have you sat down, I mean really sat down and wondered where the hell Paul Billings' Syndrome passed. In fact it was disheartening that such a disciplined Sheriff who wanted to play by the books had to live with something like that. We watched his hands shake which, well, undermined his duties as a Sheriff. There was a scene where he was being ordered to grab Juliette by the hands and make sure she didn't escape. Due to the syndrome, he couldn't grip Juliette's hands firmly, which made her escape. When he was confronted about how Juliette got away while he was holding her firmly, look at the answer he gave. But then here we are and we're no longer seeing his hands shaking and everybody seems to just have forgotten about him and this syndrome. So my question is was he cured? And how?

So in MobLand Season 2 Episode 1, we saw Tattersall walk up to Kat McAllister and sell her a particular dream that could make Kat able to run the whole of London. In the meeting with Kat, he tells Kat that he has this wonderful dream for her, and if she agrees to the dream, it could make her run the whole of London by herself. He said to her that she needs the kind of person who can be able to work with her for her beautiful dream to come true. And that the person happens not to be him, though; he has someone he trusts, meant for this bigger operation for Kat. Well, that person happens to be Frankie. A new guy who has been introduced by Tattersall, and we saw him just at the end of episode 1. But who is Frankie, and why does Tattersall trust him to be the kind of guy who can be able to help Kat to run the whole London together? Learn more about your ad choices.

Imagine you have a beautiful relationship with your partner, and someone decides when you could have children; how would you feel? That is something that can even make the relationship not worth it, because one of the couple’s main goals is to have children, so that those children can carry on what they left behind. But here in the show, even giving birth becomes an issue. The silo decides who gives birth and who doesn’t, which is a type of control beyond limits. Because imagine someone taking the one thing God gave them; how would they react? It is every couple’s dream to procreate, so that their children will continue their legacy, and besides, what is the meaning of marriage if you can’t have children? Learn more about your ad choices.

Out of fifty silos in all, there are only seven silos left, and my head keeps spinning. What happened to the other silos? Did they initiate safeguards just like silo 17? I just can’t find answers to that. Not even in the books. We saw a pop-up on the screen when Troy was in the IT room. The pop-up on the big screen showed 50 silos, with only seven silos lit up. That means forty-three silos are all gone, just like that. And those operations that wiped the people out were carried out by men like Troy and Victor. I do not want to say this, but it is a necessity. If Troy remembers who he really is, I don’t think he will be able to forgive himself, because forty-three silos were wiped away. That is some regret he cannot bear. So the count everybody is running with is seven out of fifty, and the ones lit up are silo 1, 14, 18, 19, 31, 42, and 44. Those are the only silos left, and I am pretty sure that there is a silo other than silo 18 who is also on the verge of revealing some hidden secret about the silos. But that is my own observation, not a fact the show has confirmed Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The relationship between Troy and Helen was a particular relationship every person wants to have. Helen was very smart, beautiful, self-articulate, and most importantly, very bold. She does not think or care about the opinions of others after she makes a decision, and that is the kind of girl you should have by your side. So why did Victor keep the answer from Troy after all those years of multiple questions from Troy? Only to reveal it at the moment he took himself off shift permanently.

Troy is actually letting Juliette walk free, though she knows that the Founders tried to kill her silo. Troy can let that go, but what he can't tolerate is allowing Juliette to contact another silo. Isn't that strange? If the founders already control what every silo knows, why does talking to each other scare them this much? Juliette knows a lot; she has also been through a lot, yet Troy still offers her a deal, whiles she is a threat. This deal means something to Troy and so why? Learn more about your ad choices.

Silo makes me think that Juliette and Helen are related. Just look at how Daniel zoom-pauses Juliette's face, meaning he is thinking about her, like someone who shares a resemblance to someone he knows, while the subject is also centred around Helen. And that gave birth to this theory. Even Juliette's defiance gives us a clue that the blood of Helen runs through her. And if she's somehow related to her, then Daniel could be preparing to murder his own family without knowing they're his family. And since we know Helen was headed for Silo 18 carrying Daniel's child, this gives the theory teeth, and that's the disturbing possibility behind the finale's comparison of Troy and Juliette. If she descends from Daniel and Helen, the woman standing against Silo 1 is part of the life Daniel was supposed to have before the project took it away. Learn more about your ad choices.

Victor wanted to run a line through the Forward Vault and poison everybody in Silo 17, and I have a problem with that aside from the obvious fact that this man wanted thousands of people dead. Where exactly was he going to run this line from? Because for him to suggest that so casually, then there is something on the other side of that door that he knows about, and that Juliette is yet to find. And if they can get something through it into her silo, what is stopping her from going through the same place to wherever they are? Well, probably a lot, but that is what I want us to look at. My own guess is that behind the Forward Vault is a passage into the parts of the silo system that the residents were never supposed to see, Somewhere Silo 1 can use to reach them, and possibly somewhere Juliette can follow to reach Silo 1. Something like a tunnel connecting Silos. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

If you ever predicted that the entity behind that frog voice is not a machine but that of a person, here is your stone because you got it precisely right. Silo season 3 finale finally shows that yes, it is a person all along proving that Bernard was right with his theory. But before I go into what the episode gave us and what this means for the show going forward, I want to put my own scorecard on the table, while we predicted that it was a person, who in the seven hells would have known that it would be “this man?” When I did my video on episode 9 breakdown, I said it that yes, it’s a person, but just like you, I went around and named the wrong person, “Stensen” the man with the papers. It's Victor all along. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I have not seen any season, episode or anybody telling us how many years they have been down in the Silos. Three seasons of television so far and we don't have anyone in that silo who has ever been able to say what year it is. There is a stretch coming up where I have to open the second book. Book folks put the sealing of the silos at around 2052. They put the events of the first book, the part of the story we are actually watching, at around 2345. If you do the subtraction, you end up with two hundred and ninety three. And the moment you round it, say it repeatedly, it becomes grounded in the fandom as three hundred years. But then one problem is that the people telling us this number do not even agree with each other. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

So we’re about to find out the actual reason why Daniel and Helen got separated on that hill, and what happened to Helen Drew. Today, my work is going to be very easy because Hugh Howey himself has already answered this question 13 years ago. While having coffee with this man, he revealed the whole secret to me. Just kidding, I’ve never met him. He wrote it down instead, which is even better, because you can go and check it yourself. And he gave me a name the show has not cast yet, I don’t know if they ever will, that name is Mick Webb. He is the answer to everything you wanna know about their separation and the reason why the whole silo project fell apart. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I have a problem with “the founders” and they know I have a problem with them. Why would they drag Daniel into the Silo if they do not want to fill him in on the entire Silo plan? And that is their single biggest mistake which I think will be their downfall. You see if you’re gonna be a villain, be a good villain, smart, intelligent and greedy. And the villains in most villain stories figure this out early except well, the founders in Silo. Even though Daniel built this thing for them, but if a man builds something for you, and he does not believe in the reason you’re building, or you’re not gonna tell him because you know he won’t believe in your reason, you do not keep him around to admire the work, let alone preserve him for the future. #siloseason3 Learn more about your ad choices.

Senator Thurman is up on the platform running her lines and worrying about applause, telling her people the clapping will go five, maybe ten seconds, telling them she will start back up the third time she raises her hand, moving a page from one pile into another and saying no, this goes here. She calls the project the pinnacle of her long career, and even jokes that the career has been too long. Seconds after the blast, while Daniel is face down in the dirt and Helen is screaming into a phone that is already dead, a voice comes over that field telling everyone to seek shelter in the nearest silo as quickly as possible. #siloseason3 #appletv Learn more about your ad choices.

Farewell right? And yet, not one person gets to say goodbye in Silo season 3 episode 9. Everyone happens so quickly that nobody saw it coming. It was so damn crazy that Bernard goes out to clean with no suit on and nothing over his body except his own pair of clothes and boots, and yet somehow he walks almost past the tree, a feat none of the others with suits were able to reach. Except Nichols of course. Daniel and Helen on the phone, standing on two different hilltops, and within the blink of an eye, the sky just opens up and this massive blast just covers the entire world, and at that point, they knew that the world has just ended. Some things are missing, some you will notice, and some were carefully arranged by someone and some things that someone deliberately took out. #siloseason3episode9 Learn more about your ad choices.

Silo has given you and me a three-season murder case to solve. And by the end of the whole investigation, we found out that Orla was murdered by a man who was maybe two minutes away from a cleaning suit of his own. Her own boyfriend Mike Davidson, and the reason is Orla caught him stealing out of Supply. Ed Harwood named him, going by what his own daughter Glenda told him, and Paul Billings and Hank took it and arrested Mike. And the episode that we found out about this is called Gray Goo. The episode had a mountain to carry and Orla was never going to be the center of it. But I don't think we should close the case yet based on hearsay from a man bargaining for his own neck. So we're going to follow the case again, sort the evidence properly, and then weigh this against the suspect, then we can now decide to prosecute him before a jury who, well, by this time has been locked up in detention. Funny right? But however it may be, justice must be served, the right way. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I don’t know if you have noticed, the moment the safeguard is mentioned, what we tend to think about is that it is a punishment for going against the Pact or a way to control the crowd if they fall out of line. This is exactly what the algorithm wants us to think the safeguard is...You see, people know about the Pact, they know what happens if they go against it, it’s either detention, being sent to the mines or worse being sent out to clean, that is the deterrent but nobody knew there was a safeguard to begin with, so we can’t count it as a deterrent measure. So let us find out what the safeguard is for, and why it is not a fail-safe. It is what decides whether anybody in Silo 18 was ever going to live. Learn more about your ad choices.

Before we can understand what is really going on in the Silo TV Series, we have to go back many many years ago, to the Before Times, to a time when all these started and how the Silos were created. And since the show is adapted from the books, I’m going to give you what the books tell us about how the Silos were created. The Silos are fifty holes in the ground, each one deep enough to stack a hundred and forty-four floors of human beings, and forty-nine of them carrying everything a city needs to feed itself, power itself and govern itself for generations, right down to the book of rules they call the Pact. I walked you through the inside of one of them in my previous video, so I won’t do all of that again here. We often mistake the Silos to be a bunker, but no, these are equivalent to cities, just underground. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I bet you believed it when Stensen in episode 8, titled gray goo tells us that it was Iranian nanotech that ended the world right? Because after watching this episode a lot of people went, oh now there’s the answer, the mystery has been solved. But I tell you, that’s very far from the truth. And I will be the guy who says on record that the goo is not what ended the world. What actually ended the war is right there in Silo 1, and the episode just quite revealed the shape of it. But to be clear so you do not misquote me, I’m not saying the nano weapon that was mentioned isn’t real. Far from it. To really find the right answers to the person who ended the war, then you have to ask yourself who benefitted from the end of the world? Learn more about your ad choices.

Wait, wait, wait, whoever was breathing into that radio at the end of Silo Season 3 Episode 7 was not Patrick Kennedy. I’m making things clear right here so you know exactly where I stand before we walk through any of this. Besides why will anybody think that voice was him, I’m not saying I want them dead, far from the truth, and I’ll tell you why, besides nobody in Silo 18 even confirmed they’re alive. Nothing was seen on the screen and even if something was on the screen, this is the silo and you don’t believe something you see on screen. All we get here is a voice coming through a helmet, saying some words, that I’d say Juliette and her gang are willing to hear and because of that voice, the plan they made to nuke Judicial, when the bombs have already been planted, gets pulled out. People were like, oh this is good news but they don’t know there is a rat beneath the boards. It isn't good news. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We were all looking for the scene where he joins Ulf White to burn Tumbleton as depicted in the books. But I couldn’t see any other way this should have gone. Because how do you expect this man to burn a town where his wife is residing? That was never going to happen. And now that his wife is no longer there, does he now break and do the one thing we expected of him this season? A lot of damage has already been done by Ulf, and to say Hugh is going to add up to that is something that would be brutal for the smallfolk of this town. But that’s what people are saying. As for Ulf the White, he was after a castle and lordship, but after the people who could give him that, both Rhaenyra and Ormund Hightower humiliated him in public, he decided that f**k them all, he is a dragonrider and no one dares mess with him. But we’re not talking about Ulf today, our attention is mostly centred on Hugh, so let’s talk Hugh. Because we all want to know whether he turns out to be a traitor or not.

Helaena was presented with the option: a cart and a gray mare or a life in the castle, and she chose the easiest option available to her: the gray mare. Helaena has been around this window that Alicent already advised to stay away from, and yet in the end, it is what saved her from this grief, except she doesn’t get to raise her chickens, and that’s the sad part of it. Now on to the tapestry which she finished first. Understand what that means. She sat and completed a piece of work, and then she went to the window. On that we see her own fall, stitched before it happened. Which means this is something she planned not something that suddenly occurs to her. Learn more about your ad choices.

House of the Dragon season 3 finale just told us something very creepy about Alys, and I do not want to add the surname because the finale just told us Rivers was never her name to begin with. Rivers is the name the realm gives a bastard, people born in the riverlands. The same way Snow belongs to the North and Sand belongs to Dorne. Which means that it is not a family name, and the moment you mention this name everybody concludes you are a bastard. Ever since this show started, we saw Rivers as the bastard name of Alys telling us that she is from the Riverlands, but with what we’ve learned now, we have a different picture of that surname, being what was actually done to her.

For the sake of the future and the threat looming in the north, and the survival of the realm, Rhaenyra is the rightful heir to the throne, therefore the prince that was promised. This proves even before a game of thrones, the threat in the north was real, even during the events of house of the dragon, and the dragons saw it. Which is why we need a King or Queen who understands the magnitude of this threat and not one that just parties and drinks, and does not care about anyone. For this reason, Viserys chose Rhaenyra even after he had a male heir. But then people are making the mistake of thinking about who has a better claim over who can actually protect the realm against their common enemy. And so I’m about to put Rhaenyra’s claim before four different courts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Oh boy, that was a hell of a slap, but still it cannot pay for what Aemond did to Aegon, people are talking, asking the right questions on some of the things that happened in the season 3 finale. Aemond hears some voice outside, and when he gets up from bed to check what it was, I won’t be surprised if he expected to see Vhagar returned, but no, to his and our dismay, it was Aegon Targaryen, who having landed Sunfyre in the yard at Harrenhal He tells him that he will help him find Vhagar, after Alys said his dragon abandoned him, after which Aemond will fly with him to Tumbleton, and “put Daeron and that shitheel Ormund in line.” From there, then together straight to King’s Landing for Rhaenyra. Which brings us to the question everybody is asking after that finale. Does Aemond actually help Aegon take the Iron Throne back? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Perhaps this is the first time you’re hearing that the last Targaryen dragon died because one boy grew tired of them and decided to put an end to this whole craziness and bad omen that the dragons bring. We know the names of many dragons, Vhagar, Sunfyre, Caraxes, Syrax, Moondancer. Even those dragons who were not claimed still got named by the smallfolk. But the last dragon died with no name at all. And this happened in King’s Landing in the year 153 AC, this dragon just died anonymously, and the maesters who recorded her death did not think to ask what she was called.

Just when we thought everybody has completely lost their minds after Silo Season 2 closes with Lukas stepping out as shadow, Bernard going haywire and Judge Sims all of a sudden demanding to know what the hell Lukas told Bernard that completely made him go insane, we open season 3 with this council and everything just seems normal like nothing ever happened? Did that not seem fishy to you? Certainly it did, and I kind of kept wondering why Judge Sims just stopped demanding answers. But that is where you and I were wrong because Sims never laid his guard down. The same questions kept ringing in his ears.

Mysaria in house of the dragon isn't doing the job she was given to. She's supposses find Aegon's whereabouts, Vhagar's and Aemond. Yet what is she doing? Do I believe in Mysaria, after Rhaenyra appointed her as Master of Whisperers? Of course, yes. With her track record, who would argue that she was the best candidate and the perfect person to fit this position? What are some of the great works that she has done over this season? Had it not been for her, Rhaenyra would have been dead by now after Prince Jaehaerys' assassination, following Ser Cole's infiltration order to Ser Arryk.

There's a particular scene in episode 2 of SILO Season 3 that begged my attention as I played it back over and over—for as many times as I did—and just couldn't keep it out of my mind. You see, Reporter Helen Drew had gone to see Charlotte, Congressman Daniel Keene's sister, in the Heidi Stensen clinic after her plane crash to try to get her "to vomit up something too," and that's when it all happened...

After a medication deprived Juliette Nichols in Episode 2, we open with Camille Sims and the newly “JL” converted Mayoral-security-guard stand watch as she takes her medicines. Which all the sudden—if it hadn’t already been—makes Jerry's words from the recent episode feel evidently realistic, now more than ever.

So explain this to me, why in episode 4 when Daemon finishes squeezing gold out of Lady Jeyne Arryn, climbs onto Caraxes, commands him to fly home, and Caraxes just.. refuses.The dragon ignored him, much to Daemon's surprise and to ours also. At that brief moment I was like what the hell is going on? Are we about to have another Sheepstealer situation on our hands? But then Caraxes catches a scent on the wind, changes course entirely and drops Daemon on a rocky ledge outside a cave that, well, Daemon never asked to visit. Strange right?

Corlys isn't wrong, and Rhaenyra knows he isn't wrong, which is exactly why she can't answer him. Because she can't legitimize Addam and Alyn without inviting every septon and lord in the realm to ask for the same things. And somewhere in my brain, I believe she’s got other plans for Baela and Rhaena, and the succession of High Tide, which is why she refuses here. Rhaenyra has just made a decision that, on the surface, looks small—diplomatic, even. But by the time the Dance of the Dragons is over, I promise you, it won't be that small at all. #houseofthedragon #corlysvelaryon #rhaenyratargaryen Learn more about your ad choices.

Prince Daeron Targaryen, known to history as Daeron the Daring, is the third and youngest son—after Aegon and Aemond—of King Viserys the first Targaryen and his second wife, Queen Alicent Hightower.

House of the Dragon Season 3, Episode 3 is, in many ways, a brilliant episode. This second subsequent episode from the war-torn premiere—ever the calm before the storm, however—switches its focus from war to the small matters of governing, and examines the challenges Rhaenyra must face as Queen.

After what felt like 2 seasons of the rightful heir to the throne being denied—much like Daenerys was denied for 8 in Game of Thrones—there’s satisfaction in seeing Rhaenyra finally sit the iron throne in Season 3... But this early victory comes with its own consequences in the books. George R.R Martin’s Fire and Blood paints a very grim reality in the aftermath, as pertaining to the events that follow (particularly in King’s Landing) in the year 130 AC under Queen Rhaenyra’s reign.

Watching Queen Rhaenyra—who is soon to be coronated ‘Protector of the Realm’—take Otto Hightower's head in the Great Hall of the Red Keep—at the tail end of Season 3, Episode 2 of House of the Dragon—was deeply satisfying. Not gonna lie. A lot of Black-aligned fans (myself very much included) have waited a long, long time to see this old geezer brought to heel. #houseofthedragon #houseofthedragonseason3 #ottohightower Learn more about your ad choices.

The introduction of the wild dragon Sheepstealer into the Battle of the Gullet during the Season 3 premiere of House of the Dragon completely shattered whatever little strategy the Team Black dragonlords had up until that point, and indirectly caused the death of Prince Jace Velaryon. Though Jace was always fated to die, regardless of how the show chose to depict it. He went rogue because he’s an untamed, untrained wild beast thrust into a bloody war on his first day on the job. This— triggering his deep-seated survival instincts over human commands—ended up spelling more of a catastrophe than the help Rhaena had in mind. But if you thought this was the real reason Sheepstealer went rogue in the battle of the gullet, then you’re completely wrong. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The death of Prince Aemond Targaryen—known, both to history as Kinslayer (following the tragic death of his nephew, Luke Velaryon), and to me as Aemond The One-Eye—was a sight to see in the Riverlands according to George R.R. Martin’s Fire and Blood. His demise—contrary to men (of his caliber) traditionally falling prey to some form of political assassination or ailment, like the satisfying death of Joffrey Baratheon in Game of Thrones—comes about as the result of the legendary Battle Above the Gods Eye—a duel to the death against his uncle, Prince Daemon Targaryen above the Gods Eye lake near Harrenhal.

House of the Dragon Season 3, Episode 2 might just be the next best episode after the battle-ridden premiere of this show. And it’s not just because satisfaction finally comes for Team Black—though the scene of Rhaenyra and Daemon cutting through foes on their way to the throne got a well-deserved standing ovation from me (and many fans, I presume)—but because the episode provides a sense of fulfillment that this show isn’t really known for. And sure, we understand it’ll probably be short-lived, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy it while it lasts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
