Attending his lessons.
190
00:13:54,829 --> 00:13:56,594
And those are where?
191
00:13:56,594 --> 00:13:58,096
What do you
need of him?
192
00:13:58,096 --> 00:14:00,265
Taking him
to the small council.
193
00:14:00,265 --> 00:14:01,299
He'll be king one day.
194
00:14:01,299 --> 00:14:03,237
He must begin
his instruction.
195
00:14:03,637 --> 00:14:05,840
What if he does not
want to be king?
196
00:14:07,007 --> 00:14:08,334
(whispers)
Where is he?
197
00:14:08,334 --> 00:14:09,471
The library.
198
00:14:09,837 --> 00:14:12,314
You must not
interrupt his custom.
199
00:14:19,053 --> 00:14:20,722
I'm afraid.
200
00:14:23,190 --> 00:14:24,391
Don't be.
201
00:14:25,091 --> 00:14:27,860
They'd be fools
to come with Vhagar
protecting the city.
202
00:14:27,860 --> 00:14:29,898
Not the dragons.
203
00:14:30,765 --> 00:14:32,000

My letters to Rhaenyra.
Has there been any answer?

for her dead son?
245
00:17:39,679 --> 00:17:41,219
None, Your Grace.
246
00:17:41,219 --> 00:17:43,487
Between that
and their blockade
of the Gullet,
247
00:17:43,487 --> 00:17:45,524
we must presume
that the princess
has refused
248
00:17:45,524 --> 00:17:47,058
the offered terms,
249
00:17:47,058 --> 00:17:49,694

- Tyland: Stop! Enough!
252
00:17:54,701 --> 00:17:57,102
...in hopes that new terms
might, might be negotiated.
253
00:17:57,102 --> 00:18:00,004
Release it at once!
Would someone please?
254
00:18:00,004 --> 00:18:02,944
Is the heir to the throne
bothering you, Tyland?
255
00:18:04,444 --> 00:18:08,080
No. No, no, not,
not in the least,
Your Grace.
256
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,548
Because I think
he wants a ride.
257
00:18:10,548 --> 00:18:11,783
- Alicent: Your Grace.
- Tyland: Uh, a ride?
258
00:18:11,783 --> 00:18:13,351
A pony ride.
259
00:18:13,351 --> 00:18:14,952
Wouldn't that be fun,
Jaehaerys?
260
00:18:14,952 --> 00:18:17,422
Should the Master of Coin
be your royal steed?
261
00:18:17,422 --> 00:18:19,228

Aegon:
Very well.

No time
for amusements,
Tyland.

Aegon:
Off you go, Jaehaerys.
Good boy.
269
00:18:49,156 --> 00:18:50,792
Where were we?
(clears throat)
270
00:18:52,291 --> 00:18:56,494
Rhaenyra's blockade has
placed King's Landing
under strain.
271
00:18:56,494 --> 00:18:58,896
And those pressures
will multiply quickly.
272
00:18:58,896 --> 00:19:00,931
Well, we should've
just killed her when
we had the chance.
273
00:19:00,931 --> 00:19:04,635
Regrettably, the opportunity
for surprise has been lost,
274
00:19:04,635 --> 00:19:08,338
and with it,
the chance to end
this conflict quickly.
275
00:19:09,709 --> 00:19:11,809
We must play
the board before us.
276
00:19:11,809 --> 00:19:14,478
Tyland:
If we are to break
the Sea Snake's blockade,
277
00:19:14,478 --> 00:19:17,182
we will need to bolster
both the Lannister
and Hightower navies.
278
00:19:17,182 --> 00:19:19,917
We do have need
for a new Master of Ships.
279
00:19:19,917 --> 00:19:23,254
We could offer
the title to the young
Lord Dalton Greyjoy.
280
00:19:23,254 --> 00:19:25,457
Aemond. What is
your business here?
281
00:19:25,457 --> 00:19:26,690
The king summoned me.
282
00:19:26,690 --> 00:19:28,492
You do not have a seat
at this council.
283
00:19:28,492 --> 00:19:31,797
Aemond is
my closest blood
and our best sword.
284
00:19:31,797 --> 00:19:33,267
I welcome him.
285
00:19:33,967 --> 00:19:36,968
Path to King's Landing
is through the Riverlands.
286
00:19:36,968 --> 00:19:40,638
We must establish
a toehold there,
at Harrenhal.
287
00:19:40,638 --> 00:19:42,640
Aegon:
The Riverlords will
either declare for me,
288
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,677
or they will meet Vhagar
and Sunfyre together.
289
00:19:45,677 --> 00:19:48,012
Ah, and-and we can
burn the blockade
while we're at it.
290
00:19:48,012 --> 00:19:49,980
- Rhaenyra has dragons as well.
- Mine are bigger.
291
00:19:49,980 --> 00:19:52,450
If we lose the dragons
to war, there'll be
no calling them back.
292
00:19:52,450 --> 00:19:54,051
- We must proceed cautiously.
- No.
293
00:19:54,051 --> 00:19:58,190
Fat, old Lord Tully
will either raise my banner
or see his burn.
294
00:19:58,190 --> 00:20:00,294
We should fly
to Riverrun.
295
00:20:00,727 --> 00:20:02,360
You are the king,
Your Grace.
296
00:20:02,360 --> 00:20:03,861
You must not put
yourself at risk.
297
00:20:03,861 --> 00:20:06,631
And Vhagar is needed here
to deter Rhaenyra from attacking
298
00:20:06,631 --> 00:20:09,304
in retribution
for the death of her son.
299
00:20:10,337 --> 00:20:14,673
Errors were made
in the hours following
King Viserys's death.
300
00:20:14,673 --> 00:20:16,911
We mustn't
compound them.
301
00:20:18,512 --> 00:20:21,145
You've already demonstrated
your might, Your Grace.
302
00:20:21,145 --> 00:20:25,483
- We must now favor
patience and restraint.
- (Aegon sighs)
303
00:20:25,483 --> 00:20:27,252
I send ravens
by the hour.
304
00:20:27,252 --> 00:20:31,656
Many and more houses
will declare for you
in time.
305
00:20:31,656 --> 00:20:34,829
History and precedent
will come to your side.

that you were indisposed.

What is it
you wish to discuss?
313
00:21:01,120 --> 00:21:04,559

the whole of the castle staff.
314
00:21:05,725 --> 00:21:07,559
They produced rather
interesting details,

I have exposed all who
betrayed our trust.
316

my good Lord Hand.
354
00:24:39,707 --> 00:24:40,775
(grunts)
355
00:24:42,442 --> 00:24:44,276
(nervously) Good morrow,
my, uh, Your Grace.
356
00:24:44,276 --> 00:24:45,643
- (laughter)
- Aegon: It's alright.
357
00:24:45,643 --> 00:24:47,746
There's no reason
to be nervous.
358
00:24:47,746 --> 00:24:48,914
What's your name?
359
00:24:48,914 --> 00:24:51,149
Gr-- Uh, Jerard,
Your Grace.
360
00:24:51,149 --> 00:24:53,251
Good morrow,
Jerard.
361
00:24:53,251 --> 00:24:55,854
And how might your king
be of service?
362
00:24:55,854 --> 00:24:57,559
'Tis my flock.
363
00:24:58,559 --> 00:25:02,197
Uh, a-a-a tenth
of them taken by...
364
00:25:04,197 --> 00:25:07,132
- the Crown on...
- (crowd murmuring)
365
00:25:07,132 --> 00:25:09,367
on the cusp
of winter.
366
00:25:09,367 --> 00:25:12,374
- If I'd had the time to plan--
- We should return them.
367
00:25:15,475 --> 00:25:16,975
- Your Grace?
- Aegon: Well, you need
368
00:25:16,975 --> 00:25:18,610
your goats
for the winter,
don't you?
369
00:25:18,610 --> 00:25:21,446
- Sheep, Your-Your Grace.
- Aegon: Sheep, even better.
370
00:25:21,446 --> 00:25:23,816
I shall make your
flock of sheep whole.
371
00:25:23,816 --> 00:25:25,616
(Jerard laughs)
372
00:25:25,616 --> 00:25:28,120
We already made a promise
to all the Crownlands
373
00:25:28,120 --> 00:25:30,516
that a tithing
of livestock
374
00:25:30,516 --> 00:25:32,791
would be necessary
to sustain the dragons
375
00:25:32,791 --> 00:25:34,225
for their
increased activity
376
00:25:34,225 --> 00:25:37,266
and, pray not,
eventual fighting.
377
00:25:37,932 --> 00:25:40,031
Right... Right.
378
00:25:40,031 --> 00:25:43,066
Perhaps we could
just return his sheep.
He came all this way.
379
00:25:43,066 --> 00:25:45,736
If you return
one herder's sheep,
Your Grace,
380
00:25:45,736 --> 00:25:48,201
you will soon find
them all at the foot
of your throne
381
00:25:48,201 --> 00:25:50,543
expecting the same.
382
00:25:50,543 --> 00:25:52,077
They won't know.
383
00:25:52,077 --> 00:25:58,353
When the king speaks,
Your Grace, all hear it.
384
00:26:06,926 --> 00:26:09,928
After further thought,
I have decided that
385
00:26:09,928 --> 00:26:12,391
I cannot restore
your sheep.
386
00:26:12,391 --> 00:26:13,665
If war were
to break out,
387
00:26:13,665 --> 00:26:15,567
my dragons
will require feed.
388
00:26:15,567 --> 00:26:18,402
- Bring the next.
- (crowd murmuring)
389
00:26:18,402 --> 00:26:22,073
guildmaster:
Salts always run scarce
on the road to winter,
390
00:26:22,073 --> 00:26:23,108
Your Grace.
391
00:26:23,108 --> 00:26:25,010
We rely on ships
from Essos
392
00:26:25,010 --> 00:26:26,544
for our supply.
393
00:26:26,544 --> 00:26:29,780
But now,
with a blockade in place
and war threatening--
394
00:26:29,780 --> 00:26:31,849
Yeah, that treasonous
blockade won't last long.
395
00:26:31,849 --> 00:26:34,386
I plan to send Vhagar
to burn it to ash.
396
00:26:34,386 --> 00:26:35,687
Bring the next.
397
00:26:35,687 --> 00:26:37,759
(crowd murmuring)
398
00:26:39,727 --> 00:26:41,330
Hugh, Your Grace.
399
00:26:44,799 --> 00:26:46,298
The smiths
are all proud
400
00:26:46,298 --> 00:26:48,570
to support Your Grace
against Rhaenyra.
401
00:26:52,306 --> 00:26:53,304
But?
402
00:26:53,304 --> 00:26:54,576
But...
403
00:26:56,277 --> 00:26:59,143
iron costs have grown.
404
00:26:59,143 --> 00:27:02,650
A lone scorpion
takes weeks to build.
405
00:27:03,417 --> 00:27:05,621
To put it simply,
we are struggling.
406
00:27:06,453 --> 00:27:10,923
If we could but have
the Crown's coin before
we started work,
407
00:27:10,923 --> 00:27:12,923
it would bring
great relief.
408
00:27:12,923 --> 00:27:16,265
Not just to me,
but to all the smiths
serving your cause.
409
00:27:18,499 --> 00:27:19,701
(sighs)
410
00:27:20,834 --> 00:27:23,872
You shall be paid
and paid well.
411
00:27:24,305 --> 00:27:26,571
My army cannot win a war
without your weapons.
412
00:27:26,571 --> 00:27:28,576
You should continue
their making.
413
00:27:28,975 --> 00:27:32,781
Our victory depends
on the efforts
of the smallfolk.
414
00:27:35,182 --> 00:27:38,316
You have my most sincere
gratitude, Your Grace.
415
00:27:38,316 --> 00:27:40,355
Aegon: I'll hear
the next petition.
416
00:27:41,021 --> 00:27:43,024
(indistinct chatter)
417
00:27:47,961 --> 00:27:50,828
Larys Strong:
Your Grace, it filled my heart
to see you on the Iron Throne.
418
00:27:50,828 --> 00:27:54,032
- (Aegon groans)
- I was only a boy when Jaehaerys
last graced the seat,
419
00:27:54,032 --> 00:27:55,500
but you brought forth
memories of him,
420
00:27:55,500 --> 00:27:57,636
and you have
such a deft touch
with the smallfolk,
421
00:27:57,636 --> 00:27:59,470
just as your father did.
422
00:27:59,470 --> 00:28:00,909
Thank you, my lord.
423
00:28:01,408 --> 00:28:03,645
I wonder,
do you have a moment
for a quiet word?
424
00:28:09,716 --> 00:28:13,118
It is the Hand's wont
to keep a firm grip
on things.
425
00:28:13,118 --> 00:28:14,156
Mm.
426
00:28:15,355 --> 00:28:17,259
He controlled
your father
the same way.
427
00:28:19,025 --> 00:28:21,660
Viserys had
a certain reputation
as being pliable.
428
00:28:21,660 --> 00:28:23,098
I am aware.
429
00:28:24,765 --> 00:28:27,132
I would think,
as we find ourselves
430
00:28:27,132 --> 00:28:29,367
standing within a hair's
breadth of war,
431
00:28:29,367 --> 00:28:32,274
that you would wish
to be viewed differently.
432
00:28:35,543 --> 00:28:36,908
How?
433
00:28:36,908 --> 00:28:38,613
Otto Hightower...
434
00:28:40,047 --> 00:28:42,984
was your father's Hand,
Your Grace.
435
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:00,802
Daughter.
436
00:29:02,035 --> 00:29:04,639
I requested
an audience hours ago.
437
00:29:05,940 --> 00:29:09,778
There were
many petitions.
438
00:29:12,445 --> 00:29:14,283
Alicent:
I find myself wondering...
439
00:29:15,448 --> 00:29:17,252
do we pursue the same end?
440
00:29:19,318 --> 00:29:22,757
I must admit,
there are days where
I myself can't be sure.
441
00:29:24,491 --> 00:29:26,495
I shall tell you mine.
442
00:29:28,128 --> 00:29:29,627
It's victory.
443
00:29:29,627 --> 00:29:32,463
And how would you
define "victory"?
444
00:29:32,463 --> 00:29:34,432
Rhaenyra bending the knee
445
00:29:34,432 --> 00:29:37,071
and Aegon sitting
the Iron Throne, in peace.
446
00:29:37,838 --> 00:29:39,370
As Viserys wished.
447
00:29:39,370 --> 00:29:43,041
Well, if that's how
you describe it,
then we are aligned.
448
00:29:43,041 --> 00:29:45,143
- Then be my ally.
- I am.
449
00:29:45,143 --> 00:29:46,945
An ally would not
repeatedly cut my legs
450
00:29:46,945 --> 00:29:48,980
from beneath me
at that table of men!
451
00:29:48,980 --> 00:29:52,650
- I sit there
and I feel your anger.
- Frustration.
452
00:29:52,650 --> 00:29:55,119
These critical days
since Viserys's passing
453
00:29:55,119 --> 00:29:57,987
- haven't gone to plan.
- That's not my fault.
454
00:29:59,526 --> 00:30:02,560
My sons both see you
as the great example.
455
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:03,765
The Hand to three kings.
456
00:30:05,499 --> 00:30:07,332
Aegon is ever-eager
to prove himself
457
00:30:07,332 --> 00:30:08,803
and Aemond...
458
00:30:10,432 --> 00:30:12,040
Aemond is angry.
459
00:30:13,607 --> 00:30:16,240
Rhaenyra's son took his eye
and was never punished for it.
460
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:20,882
- What he did, however vicious--
- The caprice of youth.
461
00:30:24,952 --> 00:30:26,785
I could only hope.
462
00:30:26,785 --> 00:30:29,954
Aemond erred.
463
00:30:29,954 --> 00:30:33,458
But he is fiercely loyal.
He wishes to please.
464
00:30:33,458 --> 00:30:35,127
And Aegon
still heeds me.
465
00:30:35,127 --> 00:30:36,731
In private,
at least.
466
00:30:38,298 --> 00:30:39,697
But if you
undermine my voice,
467
00:30:39,697 --> 00:30:41,527
both those boys
will grow deaf to it.
468
00:30:41,527 --> 00:30:44,573
(light music playing)
469
00:30:49,977 --> 00:30:52,376
I hadn't seen it
that way.
470
00:30:52,376 --> 00:30:54,445
We only need to mind Aegon
471
00:30:54,445 --> 00:30:56,684
until the novelty
of rule is spent.
472
00:30:57,584 --> 00:31:00,719
Once he tires of it,
you and I can steer
our cause to victory.
473
00:31:00,719 --> 00:31:03,391
A fine strategy, daughter.
474
00:31:04,057 --> 00:31:09,698
But you must accept
that the path to victory
now is one of violence.
475
00:31:10,698 --> 00:31:12,334
I know it.
476
00:31:16,070 --> 00:31:18,273
But that does not mean
it must be wanton.
477
00:31:20,608 --> 00:31:21,610
No.
478
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,683
(tense music playing)
479
00:31:35,189 --> 00:31:37,192
(indistinct shouting)
480
00:31:38,425 --> 00:31:40,695
solider (shouts):
Prepare to be boarded!
481
00:31:43,297 --> 00:31:46,497
By the order
of Lord Corlys Velaryon!
482
00:31:46,497 --> 00:31:49,167
Erryk Cargyll:
Search the hold for stowaways!
483
00:31:49,167 --> 00:31:51,206
♪
484
00:31:57,078 --> 00:31:59,080
(indistinct shouting)
485
00:32:07,555 --> 00:32:09,187
(goats bleating)
486
00:32:09,187 --> 00:32:11,226
(music fades out)
487
00:32:16,730 --> 00:32:17,732
You.
488
00:32:20,267 --> 00:32:23,472
When last we met,
there were two of you.
489
00:32:25,740 --> 00:32:27,239
"The White Worm."
490
00:32:27,239 --> 00:32:29,807
Mysaria:
Did you think I would
wither in your absence?
491
00:32:29,807 --> 00:32:31,875
I did not think you
would flower a traitor.
492
00:32:31,875 --> 00:32:35,213
You speak
of highborn games.
I am common-born.
493
00:32:35,213 --> 00:32:37,715
How long have you
been selling secrets
to Otto Hightower?
494
00:32:37,715 --> 00:32:39,754
As long as he had gold
to pay for them.
495
00:32:42,122 --> 00:32:46,328
Who sent you fleeing
from King's Landing
in such disrepair, hm?
496
00:32:47,856 --> 00:32:49,895
You put Aegon
on the throne.
497
00:32:49,895 --> 00:32:51,996
That was
the Hightowers'
conspiracy.
498
00:32:51,996 --> 00:32:54,565
I merely profited
from knowing Aegon's
movements.
499
00:32:54,565 --> 00:32:56,133
But you delivered him.
500
00:32:56,133 --> 00:32:59,070
He would've returned
home eventually
for gold and for respite,
501
00:32:59,070 --> 00:33:00,238
as he always does.
502
00:33:00,238 --> 00:33:03,341
I simply... simply sped
the business along.
503
00:33:03,341 --> 00:33:05,409
"Business" that
ended with the theft
of the queen's throne
504
00:33:05,409 --> 00:33:06,644
and the murder
of her son.
505
00:33:06,644 --> 00:33:08,614
You only blame me
because your true enemies
506
00:33:08,614 --> 00:33:10,285
are out of reach.
507
00:33:11,814 --> 00:33:13,251
My arrangement
with the Hand
508
00:33:13,251 --> 00:33:14,819
was purely
transactional.
509
00:33:14,819 --> 00:33:16,791
I held no loyalty to him.
510
00:33:17,457 --> 00:33:19,393
Certainly do not now.
511
00:33:19,992 --> 00:33:24,762
Otto Hightower was to me
as I am to your noble ilk,
fodder to be cast off.
512
00:33:24,762 --> 00:33:26,431
What else do you
know of him?
His plans?
513
00:33:26,431 --> 00:33:28,069
Little and less.
514
00:33:31,305 --> 00:33:34,509
I possess nothing
of value to you, Daemon.
515
00:33:45,218 --> 00:33:48,218
(gasps, breathes heavily)
516
00:33:52,660 --> 00:33:54,263
(door slams)
517
00:33:57,531 --> 00:33:59,030
Have her moved
to the cells.
518
00:33:59,030 --> 00:34:01,703
She is to be treated
as a traitor to the crown.
519
00:34:04,438 --> 00:34:06,471
Erryk:
Forgive me, my prince...
520
00:34:06,471 --> 00:34:08,072
but the lady
speaks the truth.
521
00:34:08,072 --> 00:34:11,346
- She was no agent
of the Hightowers.
- What is it to you?
522
00:34:11,911 --> 00:34:14,678
- A matter of honor.
- Was it honor that made
you stand by and watch
523
00:34:14,678 --> 00:34:17,382
as the Hightowers
usurped the throne?
524
00:34:17,382 --> 00:34:19,918
You and your
traitorous twin.
525
00:34:19,918 --> 00:34:21,956
