Rhaenyra Tells Alicent A Son For A Son | House of the Dragon | Max 

Whats wrong with you guys? Why you made it so boring? Yes, im talking about season 2. Start working on season 3 and release it as soon as possible instead of sharing clips of previous seasons.

You think you can make $ by giving us a full season on talking and talking.Didn’t you learn from GOT??

This is cartoonish level writing quality, fire Sara Hess and recast sharako lohar

Bring a twist in season 3. Make a duel between vermithor and vhagar, which would give goosebumps to the audience. Then let that beast be killed by deamon riding craxes in some other fight

Was this scene really worthy of ruining Alicent and Aemond's characters and their relationship?

Only Aegon cried for the boy.

​@@nonono9681and Healena

They even made it seem like Aegon was more upset about what Otto said to him about Viserys than he was about his own child.

Sucks to be him.

I hate Aegon but dude was forced to take the throne, was dragged to that coronation kicking and screaming and now his mom who actually planned this coup wants to sell him out? His own freaking mother? That's messed up

Anything to make us forget Blood & Cheese, after having already ruined what was supposed to be one of the greatest and most tragic scenes.

That was a GRANDson, big difference! *sarcasm off

@@Eragon2679 😂😂😂 That's what the least bloodthirsty Rhaenyra stan would say

Alicent kinda forgot...

@@lenna_9 RHAENYRA kinda forgot*

That’s why I love Otto as a character. He is consistent

@@GiveonKingexactly. he is ambitious and he has known what he wanted from the beginning. alicent is just a fool

​@GiveonKing Is he, though? He went off on Aegon for hanging rat catchers outside the city walls after his son and heir was beheaded in his sleep to send a message because it makes them "look bad", but a few weeks ago he hung nobles outside the castle walls because they refused to defect to the Greens to send a message. Not very consistant there.

@@fatimasaadeh6518 no one in kings landing cares about nobles to be honest 😂. The citizens care only about them because they don’t have that assurity

At least he’s paying the price now that he’s behind bars

😂😂😂😂

I feel like rhaenyra and alicent could have been more of Otto wasn’t in the way

I can’t wait to see the look on her face when she finds out. Almost popcorn-worthy.

They turned her into a monster who sold her sons (including the youngest who is innocent), brother, lover, father and think this is her liberation and redemption😭

If rhaenyra don’t kill Alicent after she finds out there is no Aegon to behead I don’t know what to say

Daily reminder the Bracken twink Aeron Bracken cared more about Jaehaerys than Alicent

& nobody on the show seemed to care about Luke's death either after Jaehaerys died...

@@leiana_ytrhaenyra and Jace did but others didn’t. Slightly more people cared for rhaenys’s end but rhaena didn’t seem to care

@@GiveonKing Rhaena continued to not care about her family as she went to go have some adventures in the vale by abandoning her two brothers that were placed in her care

The ratcatchers were mentioned more than baby Jaehaerys

Hey at least I was heavily distracted during the wait so it doesn’t really hurt

@@sorrybutiamkyryloI pray that you make it god bless

The worst possible season. The editing is the reason they kept cutting the scenes too quickly!

Wdym this season is soooo good, especially this scene, Alicent asks rhaenyra to run away like how rhaenyra asked for them to fly away when they were younger

toxic complaints 🙄

@@donrog5035 they Jaime Lannistered Alicent. “I never cared for my sons, innocent or not.”

@@khfan4life365 At least Jaime you can at least pretend he's fronting when he says that. With Alicent there is no ambiguity.

@@adarnia You call it toxic complaints, we call it media literacy

LOL Alicent doesn't think Aegon's a good king and she wants to prevent the deaths of thousands. Her agreeing to Aegon's execution makes a lot of sense if she really prioritises the needs of the many over the needs of the few. Ever since she learned that Viserys had not meant for Aegon to sit the throne it's been increasingly clear that she's been asking herself if all this violence is worth it to keep that incompetent idiot on the throne and it clearly isn't.

I feel like Alicent inviting her to join her in her lifetime of vacation is insane xD

Not only that but she gives up Aemond, Cole, Gwayne and Daeron in the same swing. Does this fool really thinks she calls the shots and that those sworn to the Greens won't fight on in Aemond and Daeron's name?

​@@AvalarsHas it crossed Alicent's mind that those sons that came from her.. if there is any meaning to it.. she carried those boys for nine months.. went through the labour.. and I don't care if they are monsters but watching your sons die one by one.. how is she gonna live with that?

I agree but Alicent is being delusional in thinking that Aegon will simply be allowed to live. As long as he is alive, there will always be a challenge. Rhaenyra knows that Aegon has to die to win the war and the Iron Throne and has to effectively force Alicent to agree with her.

@@Avalars And her father and brother, who was just defending her honor a few scenes ago. Wonderful writing and character development indeed.

@@cherryfreckle She crowned him because she thought Viserys wanted him heir + If Rhaenyra became heir, Aegon and her children will be placed to death. Watch the show instead of yapping

@@captaindesperatehousewife2441 Lmao i’m a Rhaenyra fan and full on team black but even i can see how absurd this entire scene is, biggest character assassination i have ever seen for Alicent and the most unnecessary and fanservice scene i have ever watched

@@btstrasharmyexo-lbaekiesha2776 I don't think so. I'm an Alicent fan and I'm very well aware of her the fact that all characters personalities and thinking change, especially during a time where things are escalating very quickly. Alicent fell to an option of choices she never wanted to begin with. Obviously Alicent would never sell out Aegon, but she can't promote a war and have her only innocent daughter and Daeron be part of it. If she told Rhaenyra "No", people would call her out for justifying a war. If she told Rhaenyra "Yes", people would call her out for lack of motherhood she has for her children. Alicent character was always about being obedient to the men around her to earn power and use that power for good. When that power was taken away thanks to her "son" Aemond, she realized there's no way she can influence anybody and the only option left is to simply escape or be dragged into war with her daughter and family. Alicent made the logical choice and I don't think blaming her is what the writers wanted you to do.

They are utterly desperate to make you forget about Jaehaerys.

@@Avalars *grandson Luke and Aegon are their sons

That's for Season 3

@@guerreiroazul3230 if you've read the book you would know that Fire and Blood is not fact, only other people's perspective. (Not Alicent's or Rhaenyra's btw) So you obviously haven't read the book.

It gladdens my heart that some of us have some braincells still left to us.

A) she might no longer think the Greens can win, B) she doesn't think Aegon's a good king, C) she no longer thinks he should have been crowned king in the first place and D) it's better that Aegon dies instead of thousands of innocents. That's why.

@@Regenmacher175 None of the above ;)

@@benbarberian1701 And you made no counterargument so I take it you have none.

@@Regenmacher175 Upon seeing that resistance was hopeless, the Dowager Queen Alicent emerged from Maegor’s Holdfast with her father, Ser Otto Hightower; Ser Tyland Lannister; and Lord Jasper Wylde the Ironrod (Lord Larys Strong was not with them. The master of whisperers had somehow contrived to disappear). Septon Eustace, a witness to what followed, tells us that Queen Alicent attempted to treat with her stepdaughter. “Let us together summon a great council, as the Old King did in days of old,” said the Dowager Queen, “and lay the matter of succession before the lords of the realm.” But Queen Rhaenyra rejected the proposal with scorn. “Do you mistake me for Mushroom?” she asked. “We both know how this council would rule.” Then she bade her stepmother choose: yield or burn. Bowing her head in defeat, Queen Alicent surrendered the keys to the castle and ordered her knights and men - at - arms to lay down their swords. “The city is yours, Princess,” she is reported to have said, “but you will not hold it long. The rats play when the cat is gone, but my son Aemond will return with fire and blood.” That's the real Queen Alicent, you slobbering f00l !!

they want everyone to forget about this baby

It was hard to care cause aegon was the only one who cried or mourned him. Alicent literally said “ what happened to jahererys sucks but he dead I only care about my daughter” paraphrasing ofcoarse but literally the essence of what she meant.

In "forgetting" Jahaerys, Rhaenyra washes her hands off of the act (which isnt her doing anyway). So when she requests a son for a son, it means the debt hasnt been paid to her yet. At least that's how I interpreted it the first time. In saying "a son for a son", she removes accountability for what happened to jahaerys and requests the debt be paid/justice still be served.

@@KinstaKalat so she wants alicent to pay for aemond’s act? also in the show didn’t aemond try to stop vhagar from attacking arrax and luce? this is just stupid writing that is totally biased towards the blacks and you can’t even deny it

@@dom9041543 honestly at that point aegon was the most interesting character

Yes and make Rhaenyra say how history will paint her a villain. What is wrong with these writers. You see this is why writer strikes be happening because when y’all don’t pay them well they do not try 🙄

Alot of people know the source material from the books and it feels like it's controversy for the sake of controversy allowing the series to play out as it is - it's stupid, I feel bad for the actors that have to be the face of stupid writing.

Alicent was manipulated too, by Otto and Cole. Alicent only went along with the Greens plans cause she thought Aegon being king is what Viserys wanted. Until she saw her family suffering

​​@@MeleysTessarion I don't think the writers who think that a woman (who started everything and raised her sons in fear and hate btw) selling her sons, including the youngest who is innocent, brother, lover, father and all their allies to the enemy who will kill them is her redemption and liberation, deserve to be paid tbh

@@val-xz I knowww like you put Aegon through all this and now you’re calling the war “senseless”. It’s as if the writers don’t want this war to seem justified when it’s undoubtedly is. Like this lunatic indirectly caused the death of Rhaenyra’s baby daddy like why would Rhaenyra still have affections for this horrible individual. It just makes the both of them look stupid when people are literally dying for their cause. WOMEN CAN BE CRUEL FFS

For Hess and Condal, Alicent is a innocent lady that would never contribute on her son's actions, because she's just a victim of Westeros's patriarchy 😭😭

and the show is portraying alicent betrayal as a good thing

And the mother of the year award goes to... Larys!

Now I want Aegon to (spoiler about Rhaenyra's ending) and make Alicent watch.

@@fayedunaway8 THIS!! This is what hurts me the most, Aegon just wants Alicent’s love and here she goes just sacrificing him after she FORCED him on the throne😭 i’m sorry but i can’t accept this scene’s existence, also the fact that Aegon looks so much like her like HOW could she even ever willingly agree to having her first born child killed?? Absolutely absurd

Destroyed her character??? Y’all just be saying anything on here. She is the best character on the show. And she stands out every scene. Her character has been a righteous one since episode 1. No lies or deceit. SHE DOES WHATS RIGHT.

Why should she care? Jaehaerys was part of the collateral she didn’t even know about.

@@DAFR2849 Because she is asking a son for a son after indirectly causing Alicent's grandsons death. Her side, whether intentional or not already took a head and now she wants more blood. Alicent, in complete contradiction of her character somehow agrees to her son's beheading and in the same conversation asks to run away with Rhaenyra to essos. Literal fanfiction.

@@DAFR2849 Rhaenyra was visibly upset when she learned what happened. This is just....weird.

Rhaenyra didn't forget she just doesn't care and why would she 🤷‍♀ If she can kill every single member of Team Green she won't hesitate, luckily for her Alicent doesn't care enough to stop her

It's not a case of character assassination at all. You just want her to remain loyal to the Greens, even though in the show she has been given plenty of reasons not to be at this point. If Aegon's death prevents the deaths of thousands I believe the version of Alicent we've been shown does agree to Rhaenyra's demands.It's all moot anyway, since Aegon's gone. She just does not know that yet.

"You hear that, little boy? Your mama wants you dead." Aegon was Maelor all along.

@@Regenmacher175 it is a character assassination. This is simply not the Alicent we saw for the better part of Season 1. In S1, she believed that if Rhaenyra took the throne her sons and grandson(s) would be in mortal danger immediately, and this belief has been proven completely correct multiple times, first with the Driftmark incident, then with Blood and Cheese. I’m not mad that Alicent’s characterisation in the show is different than in the book, or that she abandoned TG per se, I’m mad that her character arc makes no sense

Cersei would die for her children first and is them against the entire world, i can respect that but this bi.tch Alicent is crazy

Destroying a character with one line -Jamie Lannister Destroying a character with one scene -alicent hightower

They r just dumb and incompetent and nothing else

the worst 🤮

As if Rhaenyra would even leave Jace behind for her ugh

I'm a HotD fanfic writer and these losers have boosted my confidence in writing 😂

cry more

Honestly they forgot rhaenyra and alicent have not been friends for almost 20 years.

The writers clearly haven’t read history books, because women rulers of ancient past, were some of the most vicious war mongering tyrants of all time.

Also, the writing makes the women look really stupid. For instance, the son for a son has already happened. Rhaenyra should know this. Alicent even going to her in the first place is stupid. She’s basically putting all her family to death.

Exactly. I ended up not liking dany but Arya and Cersei were so fun to watch same with Melisandre, Margery and Olenna

This.

Forced Girlbossism has ruined GOT franchise. It started when Dany and Missandei said "Valar Dhoaeris. All men must die. But we are not men". Strong Female characters like Arya and Cersei are always welcome, but why do they need to force Girlboss and LGBTQ for no reason (Renly - Loras and Dany - Handmaiden were key to the plot atleast. RhaeMysaria was irrelevant)

Now GRRMs notablog rant about Hollywood hacks ruining adaptations by trying to one up the source material makes a whole lot of sense.

The source material is overrated anyway.

Upon seeing that resistance was hopeless, the Dowager Queen Alicent emerged from Maegor’s Holdfast with her father, Ser Otto Hightower; Ser Tyland Lannister; and Lord Jasper Wylde the Ironrod (Lord Larys Strong was not with them.

at least daytime soaps are entertainingly cheesy and melodramatic. this isn't even that. this is just sad.

Well by going to Rhaenyra she's selling out Daeron too. After Aegon and Aemond are gone, the claim passes to Daeron, and the Green armies will keep fighting in his name. So to have peace Rhaenyra will have to take his head too.

Thank you. For me, NO female character quite compares to her.

and seven kingdoms🥶

I wouldn’t be surprised if she did, she literally spreads her legs for anyone at this point, at least Daenerys had morals and integrity and that’s why everyone loved her

9 dragons*

And yet the writers said Rhaenyra wanted to go 🙄 Do they even know what they're doing with Rhaenyra at this point?

Imagine being worse than cersei

​@@attackfoxcersei was ready to die with Tommen when the Battle of BW was going on, she was all ready to poison him and herself so they wouldn't be captured and killed.

God save the book Alicent from show runners.

@@benbarberian1701book alicent does absolutely nothing but play babysitter after B&C before being locked in a cell. What does she do so differently compared to the book at this point? Rhaenyra will definitely end up putting her in chains once she takes kl and learns Aegon has fled. Will look too much like Alicent giving a Aegon a heads up that Rhaeyna is coming for his head. Also, both her sons abandoned Alicent and Helanna in Kl leaving the city defenseless against dragons.

@@fireandblood2919 oh yeah what does Alicent do so extraordinary in show, she walks right in to the lion's mouth like an absolute fool, if I was Rhaeneyra I would capture her immediately to bring those rogue sons of her to heel.

Literally, acting as if Cersei didn’t got many fans despite the fact that her character was “evil” she was still way better written that this two😭

They ruined Aemond's character for this scene, he wasn't hated by his family in the book and he only started burning settlements after losing KL, he wanted to lure Rhaenyra's dragons from the capital

They ruined Aemond's character for this scene, he wasn't hated by his family in the book and he only started burning settlements after losing KL, he wanted to lure Rhaenyra's dragons from the capital

It's kinda funny how they underrestimate the fans. I got the impression that they think us fans want it that way, one dimensional, plain and predictable. Didn't they realize that GoT was so successful because of the damn good writing of GRRM? Grey moral, complex characters. Mostly unpredictable events. Witty, unique dialogues. No or at least very few illogical mistakes. It felt so authentic, organic and like a journey you desperately wanted to be a part of. I hang on every word that were spoken in GoT and didn't want to miss one moment, no matter how calm and unspectacular it seemed at first. HotD will never reach that level and get that many people emotionally invested. I wish they would've hired a different showrunner and writers.

Probably worried viewers won't like the characters as much. Let's be real, female morally grey characters unfortunately don't get the same love as male morally grey characters. The writers are probably well aware of this so most likely tamed that to ensure viewers would like them and keep tuning in.

Always she . Dramatic and irreponsibility

Unless they wanted us to see her as bipolar psycho, but something tells me they want us to cheer for her, sacrificing her son for highschool crush

Have we not watched her come to her senses this season or am I just crazy

@@BValkComing to her senses and putting her entire family to the sword? Betraying them ALL? If she was so righteous, she would openly tell her family that she made a mistake in raising her kids and misunderstood Viserys’ dying words. She would be willing to die honorably instead of signing off the murder of her father, brother, lover and three sons who undoubtedly love her a lot. She plans to go skip around in the forest breathing fresh air and legitimately saying she would be HAPPY, KNOWING SHE MURDERED EVERYONE SHE EVER LOVED OR HAD A RELATIONSHIP WITH! That’s insane. It’s indefensible.

Nor Rhaenyra

the finale was disappointing, yes but to say this as if people dont change is crazy. She literally told Rhaenyra that she was wrong and she has come to this conclusion based on the series of events she has experienced. She even hesitates in agreeing that Aegon should be killed but Alicent has changed from Season 1, WAR does that to people.... No one person is a monolith and instead of looking at it realistically you chose to bash the writers instead (yes they should be bashed but not for this lmao)

@@jetmistress8301 If Alicent agrees to both Aemond and Aegon being killed, then she is not Alicent. Period This is an adaptation, it's not a new story. I don't spoil anything but book Alicent would never, ever do this

@@yasmina3999 agreed

@@s_shaleh also let’s not forget about the big age gap between them in the books, alicent was already like 17 when rhae was a child less than 10 years old, it makes sense that they didn’t had a “friendship” between them due to that

Their friendship on the show changes the dynamics of the characters but it then also makes sense that a lot of scenes in the show will be played differently because the characters are different from the get-go. that's not a bad thing. The Alicent/Rhaenyra dynamic on the show is one of the best changes the show made to those characters tbh. Also, if Alicent now no longer believes in the cause that the Greens fight for, why wouldn't she agree to this if it means avoiding a senseless war?

I mean, Aemond's behavior and actions was a major motivator for her becoming demoralized from the Green's cause.

The only lives to be negotiated are the lives of Aegon, Helaena, and Daeron. Aemond is responsible for the war escalating in the first place. He also purposely attempts to kill his own brother and he burns a town simply because he was angry. Aemond should have been killed a long time ago. There is absolutely NO redemption for him.

Congratulations, you parroted some braindead comment you saw on reddit. I'm sure you feel smart. Except you missed Alicent accepting Rhaenyra as Queen in Episode 8, her constantly arguing for peaceful solutions and avoidance of bloodshed in Episodes 9 and 10, her using the misinterpretation of Viserys' last words as a source of moral comfort, self-delusion, cope, and justification for supporting Aegon, and her Season 2 arc where - despite her best efforts to temper her sons' anger - she sees things spiraling out of control and grows progressively disillusioned with everyone and everything, culminating in her suicide ideation at the lake, and finally giving up all responsibility in the finale and giving Rhaenyra the option to win the war. I hope Ryan and Co stay as far away from the internet, otherwise brainrotted zoomers like you will influence S3 writing.

You don't know how to be invested in a character who is actively rejecting the power structures they've been nothing but a pawn in their whole life? You can't be invested in a character who isn't hungry for some sort of power? Really?

I cringe everytime they mention the prophecy

'Tis the Song of Ice and Fire

The Conqueror's dream

Alicent in S1: "Ser Criston, give me Lucerys' eye as payment for Aemond's." Alicent in the books: "The rats play when the cat is gone, but my son Aemond will return with fire and blood." Blatant character assassination by hack writers.

A "Hess" if you would. Get it? Because one of the writers is called Hess.

*grandson Luke and Aegon are their sons

@@adarnia Dosen't really matter. The kid in S02E01 was killed for Luke's murder. So that's both Rhaenyra's stupidity and the writers lazyness.

@@r3miPL and we're all glad you're not a writer. 👏👏👏

@@adarnia Aside from the fact that you're defending the most useless character in S2 who's done next to nothing to sympathize with her - I hate to break it to you but you're just one person. Personality disorder can be treated. Fingers crossed!

@r3miPL They're fictional characters. Calm down. Don't cry

Oh man, right? that was so hypocritical

@@khfan4life365 She’s talking about having to lose her son, in terms of that, to Rhaenyra, Alicent hasn’t sacrificed as much as she as,

@@btstrasharmyexo-lbaekiesha2776 the son for a son has already been paid with Jaehaerys. Rhaenyra’s just being cruel, wanting the heads of all of Alicent’s sons (and male family members) to solidify her already shaky claim. Alicent shouldn’t have went to her at all. She should have gone to Oldtown where Daeron was to spring Helaena and Jaehaera.

@@khfan4life365it’s not a shaky claim, Rhaenyra was always the rightful heir whether you want to believe it or not. That’s who Viserys chose, not Aegon

@@khfan4life365 No its not. Is Jaehaerys alicents son?

It's too late now, this cretin would never be book Alicent. Making Rhaenyra and Alicent the main characters killed this show

One of the writers called Fire and Blood "propaganda" considering it's through the eyes of a septon. While technically true, it's irrelevant. Martin himself voiced concern over how people adapting books don't follow what the authors have written and instead come up with their own nonsensical characterizations.

@@bmabs35 which goes to show that they haven't read the book because Fire and Blood is written through the accounts of a jester, a few measters and a septon, plus a few random people
