The war has now truly begun, 27 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: and I think most troubling to all sides. It began 28 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: all on its own, without anybody doing anything. Yeah. 29 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 2: That's the impact of this kind of beef that they 30 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 2: never really realized is it's giving people free reign to 31 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 2: just do what they want feuds and do what they 32 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 2: want in the name of the Queen Dragonstone. Eric and 33 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: Eric Rip they're buried together. They came into the world 34 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 2: together and now they share the same grave. My friend 35 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 2: Gavin Mattz, the comedian Gavin Matts was like, Eric and 36 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 2: Eric are like. It's like when people say talk to 37 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 2: your family, like about Trump or about politics or whatever, 38 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: and what ends up happened? We both end up dead, Okay, 39 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 2: And can we just get a bit of clarification see 40 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 2: it as you are our official master and also official 41 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 2: house dragon pod. Who died first, who died lost, and 42 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 2: who killed themselves, because that's been a huge topic of 43 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: conversation and the disquote out online. 44 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: Sure, so again this is Eric and Eric Eric a 45 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 1: for Allison died first. Eric slayed Eric. Now you could 46 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: kind of tell them apart during the fight sort of, 47 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: even though it was like very confusing because Eric wounded 48 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 1: Eric in the thigh, in the leg. So that's how 49 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: you can kind of tell who quote unquote won at 50 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 1: the end. And as for why Eric decided to kill 51 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: himself afterwards, One, this was a terribly traumatic and awful 52 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: thing that he had to do. Two, the negative connotation 53 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: of kin slaying is quite strong, of course in Westros 54 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: and other places in this world, and it doesn't get 55 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: more kin slang than killing your twin. And I think 56 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: after that, Eric just couldn't live with the way that 57 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: he would be looked at in this world, despite the 58 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: fact that I'm sure Renier would have ordered him incredibly handsomely, 59 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: but he would have been looked at as a kinsler 60 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: and probably called behind his back a kinslaer, and that, 61 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: coupled with the awful reality of what he just did, 62 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: made it so he couldn't live with himself. 63 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I also saw another thing I saw that I 64 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 2: liked was people saying like he was also probably aware 65 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 2: of the fact that Venera would never like truly know 66 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 2: which twin he was. I mean, you know, so there 67 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 2: was there would always be people kind of coming in 68 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 2: and saying like, well, maybe he's just pretending till he 69 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: can get close to you. And I think there's like 70 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 2: so many levels to it. 71 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: I mean, but you could have this is this is 72 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: one of those things where you I really again, we're 73 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:50,119 Speaker 1: team black, right yeah, and that said, but like, why 74 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 1: not change the color of the cloaks, how about different uniforms, 75 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: how about having a password system, understanding how about like. 76 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 2: A helmet that had some goals on it in a 77 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 2: specific play. 78 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 1: Understanding that this twin issue is out there. So I 79 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 1: think that one thing. Listen, I understand that theory. It's 80 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: quite interesting, but I think like that could have been 81 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: cleared up. You just like be like, hey, so what 82 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,799 Speaker 1: did we do? What do we watch on the TV? 83 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: And the common the night the first night we all 84 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: came to dragons, you know, like I think that there's yeah, yeah, yeah, 85 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: like figure out which one is which. 86 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: Imagine if they were that sensible. 87 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: Anyway, So we're Eric and Eric are being buried, and 88 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: Jace wants to hit back. He wants action. Rene counsels 89 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: Raniera to move quickly to make peace before this gets complete. 90 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: It's already almost out of control and if we can't, 91 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: this might be the last opportunity we have to find 92 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: an off ramp for this. So Raniera, Renie says, you 93 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: need to. You need to figure out a way out 94 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: before the dragons start killing each other and all the 95 00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 1: young folks, the you know, the Skins, the young how 96 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 1: the skin's the next generation kids here like start running 97 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: things and this thing takes on a logic of its own. 98 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: You need to reach out to Allison, she says. Rania says, 99 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: you know what, my former bestie Allison sent me a 100 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: raven after Luke's death. But I have not read it. 101 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: I can't bring myself to read it. 102 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 2: Feel like you should have read it. Also, can I 103 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 2: just say Renie out here again proving that she should 104 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 2: have been Queen all along, the most sensible person in Westross. 105 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: And again, I hate to I can't imagine what Vernia 106 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: is going through to lose the sun in that way. 107 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: At the same time as a head of state, when 108 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: you receive a letter from another head of state and 109 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: you're actively in a w you're. 110 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 2: Currently in war.

You're like everybody, you're a tough guy. Wow. Great, wow, great, 182 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: But don't no need for that. Just stay home. 183 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 3: We're going to take a quick break and we'll be 184 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 3: right back, and we're. 185 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: Back on Dragonstone. Rania hires Massaria as her master. 186 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 2: Yes. 187 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: Meanwhile, Sea Smoke is continue to be irritated. Is like 188 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: wheeling over the sea and screaming and yelping, and Massaria 189 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: is like, did they always act like this? Just like no, 190 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: this is just kind of like a recent thing. And 191 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 1: so clearly Sea smoke is is feeling frustrated and feeling strange. 192 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: Now we should note that Sea Smoke is a dragon, 193 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: you know, the dragon. The bond between dragon and rider 194 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: is magical and only ends with death. But of course 195 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: Lenor is not dead. He just has left the scene. 196 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: So perhaps yeah, perhaps that's some of the frustration. 197 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 2: Then oh, that's a great call, like he can sense 198 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 2: Layah or sense that that bond is still that Also, 199 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 2: I'm really happy. I was definitely one of my big 200 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 2: wishes for this season after the last episode was that 201 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 2: Vernera would hire Massaria, So I'm very happy that that 202 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 2: ended up, and that kind of confirms what we thought, 203 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 2: which was Massaria obviously got word back to the castle 204 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 2: about the Eric Eric switcheros. 205 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: With like actual battle seeming more and more likely and 206 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: in fact having taken place, Queen decides, well, maybe not 207 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: the move that my small council wanted, but I think 208 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: a necessary move anyway. She decides to send the youngest 209 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,599 Speaker 1: and the most vulnerable, young Jeoffrey, even younger egg On 210 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: and little Visas to Jane Aaron in the Veil in 211 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: exchange for the Veil's support. Jeoffrey will stay there, Eggan 212 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: and a Visas will get on a boat and go 213 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: to Pentoss, and Raniera says Reina, why don't you accompany them? 214 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: Reina is pissed and frustrated anyway, because Bele gets to 215 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 1: ride a dragon and Rena doesn't really have one, and 216 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 1: now she's getting put in babysitter duty, but she begrudgingly agrees, 217 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: and the Queen says, and just to show you what 218 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 1: a sensitive mission is, this is, and she overtly says, 219 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: like this is in case it goes bad here like 220 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: you're the future, you will be shepherd in the future 221 00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 1: for it. She also gives her a case of of 222 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: dragon eggs, four dragon eggs. And here's where we wonder, openly, Rosie, 223 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 1: are these the eggs that get to Denaris? That's what 224 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 1: it feels like, right a century and a half plus later. 225 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 2: I feel like this show does a really, really great 226 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 2: job of playing it small, playing it within the world, 227 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 2: playing it within the timeline. And it's very rare that 228 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 2: we get any big kind of easter egg moments or 229 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 2: big moments where you could write an article that's like 230 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 2: this just changed a huge part of Game of Thrones law, 231 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 2: as we so often write articles like that, But this moment, 232 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 2: a chest of eggs. How can we not think that? 233 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: How is that not what we wonder? Especially going to 234 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 2: the Arrans and going to the veil, which is such 235 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 2: a big part of Game of Thrones law, very interesting. 236 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: And Denaris picks them up and pent Us when she's 237 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: gifted them as part of her wedding dowry. Now there 238 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: were only three eggs when she got to him. They're 239 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 1: had a black, a red, and like a green and 240 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 1: those colors are there four eggs in the carrier, but 241 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: with the blue added to that. So I guess the 242 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 1: blue gets lost somewhere along the way. But if these 243 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: are indeed those eggs very very interesting. Yes, Damon flies 244 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: to heron Hall and the pouring rain all alone on Karaxies. 245 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: And maybe we should have listened to Damon earlier, because 246 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: he manages to take heron Hall, which is very lightly 247 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: held from the castle Lands. For Simon Strong, who is 248 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: fed up with Laris Strongs double dealings and is quite 249 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: eager to give it up. Hates Laris and in fact 250 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: rightly blames Laris for the deaths of Lionel and Harwin, 251 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: who died by fire in a castle that is like 252 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: so water logged that it is a danger to everyone, 253 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: Like there's just water constantly dripping from everywhere from the 254 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: high ceilings. This must be the most the castle in 255 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: all of westrous Damon asks Simon to summon the Lord 256 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 1: Paramount of the Riverlands, Lord Grover Tully, to Heron Hall 257 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: so that he can make a deal to claim the 258 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: forty thousand soldiers that are to this point undeclared. They're 259 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: free agents in the Riverlands and he can win them 260 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: to rhneer side with the Tullies and the Riverlands. Damon 261 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: then plans to march to King's Landing to quote take 262 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: the throne. And it's also very notable that in these 263 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: conversations he keeps insisting that he is not just the 264 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: king consort but the king he makes I'm saying, Simon, 265 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: call him your grace, and it's this is very interesting. 266 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's the plan, head, Like, what are the odds 267 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 2: that if Damon took hypothetically, let's say this plan goes well, 268 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 2: he doesn't ruin it with his chaotic behavior, he takes 269 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 2: the throne at King's Landing, what are the chances that 270 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 2: he doesn't then declare against Ranera and isn't like, hey, 271 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 2: I'm the rightful king anyway, Like I'm not worried about you. 272 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: I personally think at this point that Damon is just 273 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: showing off with the your grace stuff. He wants the 274 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: respect that is afforded to him as king, but that 275 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: in his heart much like the kind of gossip and 276 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: rumors that were flying around during Visas's reign, where everybody's like, oh, 277 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: what if Damon usurps the throne from Visara's I don't, 278 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: and he and we all understood that Actually he never 279 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: wanted to do that. He just wanted to be close 280 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: to his brother. I think similarly here Raniera is his 281 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 1: beloved brother's choice of successor. He failed Raniera spectacularly with 282 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: this scity. 283 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 2: This is like he could be like trying to get 284 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 2: get back in a good grace there. 285 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he's trying to make it right in 286 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: his way. He's like, I'm going to go off. I look, 287 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: I got heron Hall from Nira and uh yes, I'm 288 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: calling myself king. But I'm gonna make it right. I'm 289 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 1: gonna get this me together. 290 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 2: I'm gonna make her and I'm gonna be your kid. 291 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: And I think that's what he's thinking, though it's still 292 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: quite provocative to make people call you your grace, Sirguayne 293 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 1: high Tower, Allison's very fancy brother arrives in the capitol 294 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 1: and attaches himself to Christopher Cole's army. Kristen Cole, I 295 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: call him Christopher Chris Cole's Army like that, yeah, you're 296 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: like Christopher Cole, Christy Cole. Chris is annoyed by this, 297 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: but what can he do? Also some more flirting between 298 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 1: Alison and Cole. Cold Allison is like saying, well, don't 299 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: get yourself killed, okay, whatever, and then he waits for 300 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 1: her to turn around and he's like, uh uh you Grace, 301 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 1: if I might get I have one request with the Queen, 302 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: if I might get the Queen's favor. 303 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 2: I've seen I've seen a night's tale. I know what 304 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 2: that means. 305 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 1: And Alison goes into her bosom and takes out her 306 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: some rag and he gives it, and she gives it 307 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: to Christin Cole, who is delighted to get it, and 308 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: they both pretend like they're not lusting for each other anyway. 309 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: Off Kristin Cole with Gwyn High Tower and Togo with 310 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: the beginnings of this Green Army, Rainy's reports that so 311 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: far Team Green does not seem to be mobilizing to 312 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: strike back in the wake of the death of Prince 313 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 1: Jim Harris. Meanwhile, Prince Damon nobody knows where he's at 314 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 1: the small council meeting is like what about Damon? And 315 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: he did the army thing going well, like. 316 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 2: What's how's a guy? 317 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's like and Rener's like whoa, we have 318 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: no word from him, and Raynier's really having trouble reigning 319 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: her counsel in right now because they all want to 320 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: go to war like immediately with all the dragons, like 321 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: send them all.

I feel like they haven't been utilizing the dragon. 325 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,400 Speaker 1: Here's the thing there is, Okay, Vegar is huge, right 326 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: you have to figure that, you know, not knowing Eggon's personality, 327 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: that the Greens would be loath to put Sunfire into action. 328 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: And then there's Darren the daring with Tsarion, so it's 329 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: like not and and he's quite young. So three dragons 330 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: to the multitude of dragons that the Blacks have, even 331 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:24,199 Speaker 1: though many of them are small, and only Maylei really 332 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: is battle ready. Kratzi's too, but Cratzi's is like off 333 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,239 Speaker 1: the board because nobody knows where Damon is. But it 334 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: kind of makes sense to just like send all the 335 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: dragons and spread them out and just burn a bunch 336 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 1: of like green stuff because like vegar can only be 337 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 1: in one place. 338 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: Even like don't burn it, like just send them out, Yeah, 339 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 2: and like be seen riding them around.

Later, 401 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 1: Helena speaks with Alison about all the recent tragedies. This 402 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: is really sad because Helena is like being like, well, 403 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: deaths happen. I guess I should get used to it, 404 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: and Alice it's like, no, like you don't. You're going 405 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: through a lot. And then Helena gives one of her 406 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 1: classic Helena non sequiturs that seemingly means something even though 407 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 1: nobody really picks it up. She says that, you know, 408 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: out of nowhere to Alison, like that she forgives her 409 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: for what. Alison, of course, is taking this to mean 410 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 1: that on some level, Helena believes that Alison is responsible 411 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: for the death of Prince. 412 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 2: Jah Harrison, seeing as you know she was having sex 413 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 2: with Kristen Cola. 414 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 1: And it feels that so that's a very powerful thing 415 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: for Alice. 416 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,439 Speaker 2: Okay, so I was going to ask you, so for 417 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 2: you does this more have the way of she's forgiving 418 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 2: her for something in the future kind of as a 419 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 2: Helena premonition. 420 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: It could be I think that there are any number 421 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: of things that could happen in the future that Elena 422 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: might potentially accept Allison's apology for that said, I think 423 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: it is. I think that Allison and you are right 424 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: in that Helena is essentially taking the weight off Alison's 425 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: mind by by saying like, I don't think that you 426 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: meant to have Prince jih Harris because you were, Yeah, 427 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: because you were playing with the future hand. We meet 428 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: up with King Eggon, who is putting on egg On 429 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: the conquerors Valerian armor in preparation of joining Kristen Cole's army. 430 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: His new King's Guard bros his like his good buddies 431 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: that he hired to the King's ard all yeah. 432 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 2: Is that just just like the guys he's chilling drinking with. 433 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,159 Speaker 2: H He's like, yeah, baby, we're going on a wall. 434 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,400 Speaker 2: We're going on a wall, baby, bros On Tall boys on. 435 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 1: Tall Now there are white cloaks, you know, and they're like, yeah, 436 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: a great idea. Laris walks in, he's young, hot lord, 437 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: what the fuck is this? And he you know, he 438 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 1: says to one of the King's guard, like, I would 439 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: think it would be all to all of our benefit 440 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 1: to not see the king lose his life and his 441 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: body parts torn apart and strewn across a battlefield. What 442 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: do you think, you fucking idiots? So he goes pulls 443 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 1: a king aside, and it is like, I have to 444 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 1: talk the king out of this. So he basically says, listen, 445 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: a couple of rumors flying around. Two versions of the 446 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: same rumor flying around King's landing right now. First version 447 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: of the rumor is King's flying off on sunfire to 448 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 1: accompany Christian Coal. What a brave, courageous and wise king 449 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: we have. Second rumor is the king has been tricked 450 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: to fly off on sunfire and accompany christ and Coal 451 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 1: away from the capitol so that his mother, Allison, and 452 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,400 Speaker 1: his baby brother Amond can rule in the capitol. While he. 453 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 2: Gandalous, I'm hearing it. I can't tell you where, I 454 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 2: can't source it, but I'm hearing people are saying it. 455 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: So that second rumor really resonates with egg On, who 456 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 1: then changes his mind. It's like, oh, you know what, 457 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: I'll stick around. I guess I guess I can stay. 458 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 1: I guess I can keep my hand on the wheel here. 459 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: And then he says, and you know what, Laris, I 460 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,439 Speaker 1: need a master of whispers. I think you're the man 461 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 1: for the job. And Larius. 462 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 2: Larius is like, that's exactly why I wanted to also 463 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:55,880 Speaker 2: has to say, you know what, I hate to hand 464 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 2: it to him because he is a gross evil guy. 465 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 2: But Grris knows what he's doing. He's definitely up there. 466 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 2: One of the best things about Game of Thrones we're 467 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 2: seeing the different ways the people played the Game of 468 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 2: Thrones and kind of tried to, you know, get a 469 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 2: handle on the wheel. And I think Laris is a 470 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:18,159 Speaker 2: really nice throwback to that Game of Throne style of 471 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 2: is the most powerful person in the city, someone that 472 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 2: you would never expect, and Laris the fact he could 473 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 2: just go in there and completely change the king's mind 474 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 2: when other people couldn't suggest that, yes, he is one 475 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,919 Speaker 2: of the most powerful people, even though you might not 476 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 2: expect it. 477 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,640 Speaker 1: So, rather than flying off on his dragon to battle, 478 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 1: the king decides, we're going out. We're going to the clubs. 479 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 1: I'm taking my boys, I'm taking my king table, We're 480 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: going to get table service, bottle service. They as they 481 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 1: go into an establishment, they interrupt a man who is 482 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 1: claiming to be and this is the first time we 483 00:26:55,680 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: hear this word in the show. A Dragon's a Turkey bastard. 484 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: He claims to be the uh, the bastard son of 485 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: bail and the Brave, who of course was the father 486 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 1: of Vesaras and Damon, making him half brother to the 487 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: king and Prince Damon and you know, related to every 488 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 1: person seemingly involved in this civil war. And just when 489 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 1: he is like, he's calling Rania, like, I think his niece. 490 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 1: You know, he's black, and you know, the only true 491 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: ruler of the realm is my niece, my beautiful baby niece, Ranier. 492 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 1: And just then with and everything goes silent, and this 493 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: guy's thinking, fuck, I'm about to get killed, but no, 494 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: it's actually the king is here. And the King begins 495 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: throwing money around. They start drinking, getting super drunk. They 496 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: go from there to the to a sex club, to 497 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 1: a brothel, lots of suns happening all over the place. 498 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 2: The sex is happening.

So 501 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 1: what does the king love to do is just look 502 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 1: in every room where people are coupling as AUTOHI, which 503 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: is like a sleazy thing to do. But he's the king, 504 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: I guess. And he pulls back the curtain and there 505 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: is his brother Aimond in the arms of Madam Sylvie, 506 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: and Eggon immediately, who's going super drunk, starts making fun 507 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: of amend for sleeping with this older woman. Aimed, for 508 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: his part, pretends, you know, we've seen how warmly he 509 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,959 Speaker 1: engages with Madame Sylvie, this kind of motherly way that 510 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: he but instead like he immediately goes cold and just 511 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: pretends like he doesn't care about this woman. And he 512 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: you knows, like, oh, you know, like anybody could have 513 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: her whatever, and he walks off. Raniera is kind of, 514 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 1: you know, like pacing around her chambers, and then finally 515 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: she opens up the little jeweler box where she has 516 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: Alison's letters, and it's like, I guess I should fucking 517 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 1: read these things. 518 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 2: Oh, I wonder why you are keeping it in a 519 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 2: very special place. Seems gay to me. Why is it 520 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 2: so important to you? 521 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: Which we don't have the full text of, but you 522 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: can kind of see over her shoulder, it's clear that 523 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: Allison is expressing remorse for Luke's death. We go to 524 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 1: the river lands where Bayla is patrolling at the Queen's order. 525 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 1: She's high up in the air as the Queen asked 526 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: her to be, but then down low she spots Cole 527 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: and Sir Gawayne and a small party. They're away from 528 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: the army. They've ridden off because they're going to a 529 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: nearby keep so that they could, you know, have some 530 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: drinks and enjoy themselves. She gives chase, but the Greens 531 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: get away, and then she returns to Dragonstone to say, hey, 532 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: I saw Chris and Cole. Greens are on the march. 533 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: The Black Council wants Raniera to loose the dragons on 534 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: Cole's army because now we know that they're moving, we 535 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: got to do They're in the open, like we got 536 00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: to do something.

Damon in Harron Hall has a vision, 545 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: very very spooky yeah dream slash vision of young Rania 546 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: the princess is on the you know, she's like knelt 547 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 1: on the floor and she's cradling the dead prince Jaharis, 548 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: and she's like sewing his head back on, and all 549 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 1: the while she is saying, essentially that she's always having 550 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: to clean up Damon's messes and look what he's done. 551 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: When Damon wakes up, he finds himself in the gods 552 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 1: wood of Heron Hall, which is a beautiful ruined area 553 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 1: in front of the Heart Tree that overlooks the gods, 554 00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: the big old mysterious gods I like, And he's standing 555 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: there with a woman who they don't mention her name, 556 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: but this is for book readers. This is got to 557 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 1: be Alice Rivers. And she says to Damon, you will 558 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: die in this place, and then she walks off, which 559 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: is wow, what a thing to say. 560 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 2: Okay, sure, okay, So let me let me ask you. 561 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 2: Is he having the visions because he is in Haroen Hall? 562 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: Like? 563 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 2: Is it the cursed energy of Haroen Hall? Is this 564 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 2: like his own guilt? Do you feel like there's obviously 565 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 2: without spoilers, is this supernatural? Is this Helena esque premonitions? 566 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 2: Is this Tagaria madness? 567 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: Like? 568 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 2: What are the vibes you're getting from this this episode. 569 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: I think this is supernatural, very clearly, and I have 570 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 1: a theory and I'll save it for later. I don't 571 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: want to. I think it goes too deep for now. 572 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 1: But ok yeah, Rania, with Missaria's aid, in a huge 573 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 1: diversion from the books, an event that the books don't cover, 574 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: hatches a hail Mary plan to avert all out war. 575 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 2: Does that mean it was a really really good plan? 576 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 2: I think that's what history was able to. I think 577 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 2: this remains secret to this, to to later historians. So Raniera, 578 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 2: taking only Sir Stephan Darkland, her sworn sword, member of 579 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 2: the Queen's Guard with her all in disguise. With Raniera 580 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 2: disguised as Scepta. 581 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: Sneaks into King's Landing and then makes her way to 582 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: the Great Sept where Allison is known to often be praying, 583 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: and she approaches Alison and basically says like, we should 584 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: make peace, and Alison's like it's impossible now, and you 585 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: know that that goes nowhere, and then Reniera eventually is like, okay, 586 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 1: so what happened Like in the last hours of Visa's life, 587 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 1: you talk about me, what did he say? Did he 588 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: say anything, and Allison mentions that Visas was talking about 589 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: egg on the Conqueror and the Song of Ice and 590 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: Fire prophecy as he was dying, and this shocks Raniera 591 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: and Alison to turn is shocked by Rania's reaction, realizing that, oh, 592 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: I've struck a chord here, this is something important, like 593 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: what is this? Alison turns down Rania's peace offering, but 594 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: let's Raniera go and does not alert anyone to her presence, 595 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: so there's a door left open. Yeah, but let me 596 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: just say this. And I know we've been for the 597 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: fans of Team Black, you know, maybe you feel I've 598 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: been too critical of Arnira. We've been too great. 599 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 2: We've been a little bit. We've been a little bit 600 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 2: harsh on on Team Black in that plan. 601 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: This is an incredible move, what an incredible secret mission 602 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: to try and find an off ramp to this thing. 603 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: And it was a tremendous risk, but I think it 604 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: was worth the risk, and I think what it's very 605 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 1: sad to me and frustrating that Raniera took this risk 606 00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 1: and then threw it away by essentially saying to Alison, hey, 607 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: let's make peace. Here's my version of peace. You guys 608 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 1: quit eggon steps down and you give me the throne 609 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: and walk and you guys walk away in that side. 610 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 2: I know, couldn't she couldn't she have just come up with, 611 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 2: like we can marry our kids together, like you tell me, 612 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:23,439 Speaker 2: you know, like I I will be queen now because 613 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 2: you guys try to u s up me. But I'm 614 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 2: happy to marry our kids together so they can both 615 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 2: be the ads or something. I feel like like, why 616 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 2: would you take the life saving risk without going with 617 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 2: an actual olive. 618 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:41,239 Speaker 1: Frau fucking crazy and just it's really arrogant. And this 619 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: is where, like you know, I this is where you 620 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: start seeing. This is this is ego. You know what 621 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: I mean? This is true. I love Ren. She obviously 622 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 1: loves her kids. With the scene where her and Jason 623 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 1: embrace over the loss of Luke, it's so hard. She 624 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: loves your children. The way you know, we see the 625 00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: way she says goodbye to the little ones is they're 626 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: sent off to the veil. It's so heartrending. At the 627 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 1: same time, she's willing to let all of them die 628 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: if she can get the throne. She's willing to pay 629 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: that price, and it's in this moment that you're really 630 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 1: confronted with it face to face and to your point, 631 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 1: like I'm a little shocked, Like why can't you say, Okay, 632 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: how about this? Whoever, let's say we take Jiharah, we 633 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: married Jaharah to Jeoffrey, my little Joffrey, and then their 634 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: kids will will sit on the irons throne? What about that? 635 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 2: Like yeah, and also as well, like you can still 636 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 2: you can still basically be the dowager queen. It's not 637 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,760 Speaker 2: gonna make any difference to you and Eggon and Helena, 638 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 2: or I'll give them lots of land, Like there's all 639 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 2: different ways. Because the truth is, I do feel like 640 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 2: with how out of control the young hot lords are 641 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 2: right now, I feel like two strong women and with 642 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,880 Speaker 2: a thoughtful plan coming together could actually squash all of 643 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 2: this and they would just have to listen to their 644 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 2: moms because they are still that young. But Ranera goes 645 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 2: there and instead it's almost like she is back to 646 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 2: that teenager who feels like this is her entitlement and 647 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 2: she's angry that ever no one will respect the fact 648 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,839 Speaker 2: her dad chose her as ah So she's like, hey, 649 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,439 Speaker 2: U super, how about you you skip off that throat 650 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 2: it's gone too far now you need to offer something. 651 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: It was really really frustrating to see that. And for 652 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 1: Allison's part, you know, Alison is in a bind because 653 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 1: she is on a team that has been organized under 654 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 1: the principle forget all the family stuff and the personal feelings. 655 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:47,319 Speaker 1: But they're like organizing principle of Team Green is a 656 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: woman cannot rule. So yeah, Allison's influence is limited to 657 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: like soft influence, like backroom conversations. She can't come out 658 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,840 Speaker 1: and be like, do this, and she need an ally 659 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 1: to help her convince people on her side to do 660 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 1: things that she thinks would help the team because she 661 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,359 Speaker 1: can't do it overtly because Team Green, their whole thing 662 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 1: is like we don't need to listen to women, Like 663 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,840 Speaker 1: that's their whole raised on death. So it's she's in 664 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: a very very tough spot. But like, gosh, I was 665 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 1: hoping that Raniero would come with more, But I think 666 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 1: you're You're really right, Rosie, in that the fact that 667 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 1: this isn't in the book suggests to us that this 668 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 1: remains secret. This remained top secret mm hmm all the 669 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:33,879 Speaker 1: way through, all the way through to. 670 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 2: That, and that means that that was this thing between 671 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 2: between the two of them that they never shed again, 672 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 2: kind of hinting at that closeness and that relation, the 673 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 2: importance of that relationship. 674 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 1: Well, we can't wait to see what happens next. We 675 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 1: await episode four, which by all accounts is the big episode. 676 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 2: That's what everyone's everyone's warning us that that's the that's 677 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 2: the oh shit episode, So we shall see. I mean, 678 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 2: think about it, We've already we've already been through so 679 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 2: much in this opening half of the season. I can't 680 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 2: really comprehend, Like, if you're the first episode of this season, 681 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 2: you know, ended with a baby being killed and like 682 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 2: two of the most famous characters from the books being adapted. 683 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 2: So what you have to do for episode four to 684 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,240 Speaker 2: be that episode? I'm very excited to see. 685 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 1: Up next to the Honorbus, Welcome to another edition of 686 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: the Omnibus, where law, analysis and understanding come together. Today 687 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 1: we're talking about croveball picks for Hand of the King 688 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 1: in honor of Christian Cole, Lord Commander of the King's Guard, 689 00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 1: being named Hand of the King. Let's talk about out 690 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 1: some of those out of the box picks. Now, first 691 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 1: of all, we should say that Christian Cole's ascension to 692 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 1: handle the king from king's guard is precedented. This has 693 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 1: happened before. It happened during the reign of Jaharis the Conciliator, 694 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 1: when Ryan RedWine, who is a you know, one of 695 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 1: the most famed nights of his day, this, you know, 696 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 1: a real in terms of a warrior, like a uh, 697 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:33,720 Speaker 1: you know, a damon targarian level type of fighter who 698 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: was named to hand of the king, taking over for 699 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 1: the long serving Sceptin Barth. Now, Ryan RedWine sucked at 700 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: his fucking job. He was bad at it. 701 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 2: Oh Okay, I was gonna say, is this like another 702 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:51,439 Speaker 2: I was gonna say. I was gonna make a joke 703 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,399 Speaker 2: and be like, oh so, I'm guessing he didn't get 704 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 2: it by just sleeping with the queen. But he also 705 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 2: wasn't good at his job. 706 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,399 Speaker 1: Right, not a ton of He was just bad at it, 707 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 1: you know. Like I I think that the critique that 708 00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 1: comes down through the histories and the various references in 709 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 1: the books is basically that, and it's the kind of 710 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 1: same thing that we expect from Kristen Cole is that, 711 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,840 Speaker 1: you know, to a warrior, everything can be solved with 712 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 1: a sword, and that is not the role of hand 713 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:22,920 Speaker 1: of the king, and so Ryan red Wine was he 714 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 1: lasted like less than a year, and that was moved 715 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:32,399 Speaker 1: out for Bailon Tagery and the King's son, by the way, 716 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 1: the dad of Visis and Damon. Now Ryan took over 717 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 1: from I think an equally out of the box pick 718 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 1: which is sept and bar sept and barth came from 719 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 1: a very very you know, lowly social position. He was 720 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 1: the son of a blacksmith. Blacksmith apparently could not support 721 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 1: a family, so gave him to the Faith of the Seven, 722 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 1: where he apparently thrived. And he became a very learned 723 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:14,720 Speaker 1: person with regards to letters in history and organizing of 724 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: records and archives. 725 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:17,279 Speaker 2: And so. 726 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: He went to King's landing, as you know, basically to 727 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 1: like organize the Red Keeps library. He came to the 728 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:33,439 Speaker 1: notice of King Jaharis, who raised him to hand, much 729 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 1: to everybody's surprise. This is after the previous hand had 730 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 1: resigned and Septain Barth lo and Behold held the office 731 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 1: for forty one years and by many accounts is the 732 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:53,319 Speaker 1: greatest hand of the king that there ever was, like 733 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 1: you know, produced the crown's debts, helped with you know, 734 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 1: one of the things that among the many things that 735 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: Jaharis did was like evolve the Kingdom's laws, bring the 736 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:08,400 Speaker 1: laws the kind of disparate local laws of the realm 737 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: in line with the Crown's laws. And Barth helped with 738 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: that administratively. It was super, super super important. 739 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:17,439 Speaker 2: Okay, Well, that was going to lead me to a question, 740 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 2: which was, like, what do you think makes a good hand, Like, historically, 741 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 2: what would you look for in a hand, because we 742 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,280 Speaker 2: have seen a lot of hands who are just self serving. Otto. 743 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 2: You know, he wasn't necessarily a bad hand, but he 744 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 2: was a hand with a severe agenda. Yeah, that was 745 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:34,880 Speaker 2: to serve himself and his plans. What do you think, like, 746 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 2: what are the top three things if you're going to 747 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 2: be coaching and you're picking a new hand, Like, what 748 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 2: are the top three things you look for? 749 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 1: I think you look for wealth, you know, I think Otto. 750 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,799 Speaker 1: I think when it's all said and done, that Otto's 751 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: track record is hand of the King will be pretty divisive. 752 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,239 Speaker 1: That said, I think he had a lot of the 753 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 1: tools to be good at it. He came from a 754 00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 1: very very wealthy and powerful family, I tell and that 755 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 1: gives a person connections and an understanding of how to 756 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,839 Speaker 1: move money around. You know, like the economy of westruss 757 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 1: is pretty simple compared to like a monor economy. But 758 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 1: it's important to understand how to keep the crown in 759 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,280 Speaker 1: the black, so to speak. You can't don't beggar the crown, 760 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: which is a thing that we've seen in Game of 761 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: Thrones and we've seen it other Euros during the history 762 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: of this realm. So do you understand money, do you 763 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 1: have do you understand people? Do you have connections to 764 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 1: a lot of other families? Do you understand politics? Now, Barth, 765 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 1: it would seem would not have these kind of things 766 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 1: just on first glance, but he was such a well 767 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 1: read individual that that carried him through. And then the 768 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 1: fact that he had I think this is like an 769 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 1: ancillary benefit, the fact that he had no family whose 770 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 1: agenda he was looking to advance. See, that's the problem 771 00:43:56,960 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: with High Tower or time Lanist or a lot of 772 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 1: these other hands of the king. A lot of the 773 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 1: problem with them is they're looking to advance the fortunes 774 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 1: of their own family, sometimes ahead of the realm's fortune. 775 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 1: That's like a very common problem with hands of the king. 776 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 1: And I think you have to be careful with that, 777 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:24,480 Speaker 1: so you know, I would probably looking at like third 778 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 1: and fourth sons or maybe the not denoable members of 779 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 1: a certain family, you know, like weirdly, I think Laris 780 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: would be really good because, yeah, he doesn't seem to 781 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 1: be like team strong, looking to do anything. He doesn't 782 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 1: have any kids. Like not having kids I think is 783 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:40,839 Speaker 1: a big one, like. 784 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're not worried about your ass. Yeah. And 785 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 2: also with Laris, I think you make a good point 786 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 2: because he is more likely to be interested in the 787 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 2: wellness of the realm, because that would serve him away 788 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,240 Speaker 2: from the wellness of his family because his family doesn't 789 00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 2: like him, it doesn't treat him well. So he has 790 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:02,399 Speaker 2: like an invested interest in the realm doing well if 791 00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 2: he is part of the. 792 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:09,759 Speaker 1: Realm exactly right now. There was another member of the 793 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,280 Speaker 1: King's Guard Lord Commander of the King's Guard who served 794 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:14,839 Speaker 1: as hand of the King at the same time. This 795 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 1: is Marston Waters. In later years, we're not gonna speak 796 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 1: about him because it might be spoilery stuff even though 797 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: it oh okay decades, but just to be just to 798 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,359 Speaker 1: let people know that this does happen again, and that 799 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 1: if you happen to be interested in, like, oh, a 800 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,080 Speaker 1: hand of the King that is also King's Guard. If 801 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 1: you see the name Martian Waters, just don't click on it. 802 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 1: Don't click on it. 803 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 2: Don't click on if you don't want to spoil law. 804 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:46,040 Speaker 1: Right, But all that is to say that Marston Waters 805 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 1: some of those weaknesses that we talked about, which is 806 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 1: an ambition, family ambitions, looking to advance the fortunes of 807 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 1: one's family, and you know over that of the realms. 808 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 1: This is something that that Marston kind of had a 809 00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 1: lot of plotting going on with Hands of the King. 810 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 1: So that's it. So those are to this point in history, 811 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:12,480 Speaker 1: those are really the out of the box picks for 812 00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:14,719 Speaker 1: hand in the King. You have sept In Barth, you 813 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 1: who came from almost nothing, from a very very lowly background, 814 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: to rise to become the greatest hand of the King 815 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 1: the realm had ever seen. You had a successor, Ryan RedWine, 816 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 1: who was Lord Commander of the King's Guard at that 817 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 1: time and sucked though to be fair to him, huge 818 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,959 Speaker 1: shoes that he had to fill. And now you have, yeah, 819 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 1: I mean you have Lord Commander of the King's Guard 820 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:42,440 Speaker 1: and hand of the King Kristen Cole the second person 821 00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 1: in the history of the realm to ascend from Lord 822 00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:48,720 Speaker 1: Commander to hand and to do both of those things 823 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 1: at the same time. All right, Rosie, let's go to 824 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 1: our score card. Who is winning we right now? So 825 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:57,399 Speaker 1: we had Team Green put a point on the board. 826 00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 1: They're winning the scores currently two zero Team Green, Team Black, 827 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: with both of our votes going to Team Green. Last episode, 828 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:05,719 Speaker 1: who gets a point? This episode? Who do you see 829 00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 1: oh as winning? 830 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 2: Okay, so, with the events of the episode, it does 831 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:18,239 Speaker 2: feel like Team Black should get a point because of 832 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 2: Raniera's plan. But as we broke it down, do we 833 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 2: feel like she delivered the fact that she looked the 834 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 2: fact Raniera was able to craft this plan and never 835 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,920 Speaker 2: get into the history books, and she extended this olive branch, 836 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:34,320 Speaker 2: took that risk. This is that kind of direct action 837 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,719 Speaker 2: we've been wanting from Raniera, but she didn't make the 838 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,880 Speaker 2: most of it. And also, you know what we're seeing 839 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,280 Speaker 2: in this episode, We are seeing Team Green is planning 840 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:47,239 Speaker 2: for the future. Yeah, Team Green's thinking about what if 841 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 2: we get wiped out? Team Green is you know, there's 842 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 2: there's things that are happening here with I'm thinking also, 843 00:47:56,760 --> 00:48:00,919 Speaker 2: I'm thinking about release. Yeah, I'm thinking, Oh, I don't know, Jason, 844 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 2: who are you going for? Because I'm I'm just I'm 845 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 2: thinking that this is a hard one this episode because 846 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 2: there's no clear Raniera should be the clear winner, but 847 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,520 Speaker 2: she kind of fumbled the ball at the last minute. 848 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,840 Speaker 1: So I'm still I think it might be a draw 849 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,239 Speaker 1: for this reason. Of a Team Green, I think has 850 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 1: made some important moves. They're fielding an army. Now the 851 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:25,319 Speaker 1: army is marching towards off towards the river lands. But 852 00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:28,920 Speaker 1: Bayla saw the army knows that they're moving, so now 853 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:33,800 Speaker 1: the Blacks know that that's happening. We have Team Black 854 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:39,279 Speaker 1: agitating for action with Raniera not being able to deliver that. 855 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 1: But Reniera did make some moves that I that I 856 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,800 Speaker 1: think are really important, which is safeguard in the future. 857 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:45,920 Speaker 1: We mean the cast of the veil. I think that 858 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:47,320 Speaker 1: was important that needed to happen. 859 00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:49,760 Speaker 2: Ending the dragons eggs. I think that was a smart 860 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:50,399 Speaker 2: I think that. 861 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,160 Speaker 1: Was you know, that's the stuff that needs to happen. 862 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:58,319 Speaker 1: But to your point, and the sept Summit was a 863 00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 1: real missed opportunity if you cared about peace, and so 864 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:06,719 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say that this is a draw. I think 865 00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 1: it's a draw. 866 00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 2: I think, yeah, I don't think anybody picked to put 867 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:13,879 Speaker 2: to put one over the other. 868 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:17,319 Speaker 1: And not to mention that, you know, when you look 869 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: at the battle that occurred at the Burning Mill between 870 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,600 Speaker 1: the black Woods and the Brackens, the black Woods Team Black, 871 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 1: the Brackens Team Green, that in itself looked like just 872 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:29,360 Speaker 1: like a mask, like a massive and very costly massacre 873 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,880 Speaker 1: with no strategic you know, victory won by either side. 874 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:37,359 Speaker 1: So I think it's a draw all around. I'm I'm 875 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,759 Speaker 1: heartened by some of the moves that I see from 876 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:43,719 Speaker 1: Team Black, but also like extremely frustrated by the missed 877 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 1: opportunity to accept meeting. And you know, this can all 878 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 1: go left in a big way for Team Green if 879 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:54,799 Speaker 1: somebody doesn't keep an eye on egg On do like 880 00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:58,400 Speaker 1: this guy wants to get out the guy. 881 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:03,280 Speaker 2: He's drinking, He's gonna get on a dragon while he's drunk. 882 00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 2: Like Also, I would say the reason that I agree 883 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,960 Speaker 2: with your draw is because, in the same way, we 884 00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,279 Speaker 2: also have Damon on Team Black, who is kind of 885 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,760 Speaker 2: that chaotic element, like it does seem like he's making 886 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:19,160 Speaker 2: good plans taking Haron Hall. That seems like a win. 887 00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:22,640 Speaker 2: But can we trust him? This is the man heads 888 00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 2: chopped off? Can we trust his decision making? Is this 889 00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:29,120 Speaker 2: gonna come back to bite RINERA and Team Black? So 890 00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:30,759 Speaker 2: I think you're right. I think it's I think it's 891 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 2: one to Green and one to Black. I think or 892 00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:36,319 Speaker 2: half a point each. Yeah, So it's Team Green three, 893 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 2: Team Black one.
