Hello, my name is Jason Concepcion. Hell, 0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:27.000 I'm Rosey Night and welcome back to Extra Vision, the 0:00:27.000 --> 0:00:29.360 podcast where we dive deep into your favorite shows, movies, comics, 0:00:29.400 --> 0:00:31.440 and pop culture. Company from my Heart, where We're We're you. 0:00:31.520 --> 0:00:34.520 Three episodes week plus thos. 0:00:35.360 --> 0:00:40.960 We are talking about House of the Dragon season three, 0:00:41.240 --> 0:00:43.400 episode six and one episode. If you thought a lot 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:46.320 happened last episode, get ready because there are some threads 0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:48.519 being tied up. Some things are happening, and I have 0:00:48.560 --> 0:00:51.240 a lot of questions for Jason because I am starting 0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:56.080 to understand I think where Ryan Condall is going by 0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:59.360 leaning so heavily into the unknown time with Alison with 0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:01.960 like Alice An, there's a lot of fun stuff to 0:01:02.000 --> 0:01:04.559 be digging into, guys. So let's start and it starts 0:01:04.600 --> 0:01:06.600 off well for the Kristen Cole hayas. 0:01:08.800 --> 0:01:11.120 How su the Dragon season three episode six. We open 0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:17.120 in the river lands and Cole's bedraggled men look miserable, 0:01:17.880 --> 0:01:20.959 just kind of like stumbling and bumbling through the woods. 0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:25.000 They come to a clearing where they cite a camp 0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:28.600 of the Rivermen, they think, but something strange has gone 0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:30.760 on here. They walk down there and there's already been 0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:35.559 a fight here. There's dead bodies all around, dead animals, 0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:38.440 all of them rivermen. So it's like, who fought these people? 0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:44.119 Who killed them? But the answer is to trap Some 0:01:44.160 --> 0:01:48.960 of the dead men spring up and a fight starts. 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:53.440 It ends pretty quickly. Cole's guys put it down. But 0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:58.000 Cole realizes right after this that he and his really 0:01:58.160 --> 0:02:00.400 just like a handfully He's got very few guys at 0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:04.920 this point. His handful of men maybe a hundred, two hundred, like. 0:02:05.200 --> 0:02:07.960 Very few not and in the middle of the five 0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:11.040 hundred that we see is like badly any like the 0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:13.760 ones who are ready to fight is like ten. It's 0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:17.720 even bad, yeah, because they're all dehydrated. They've got they've 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:21.120 got and they've just been They've got leeches on their nuts. 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:25.480 It's very tough and it's bad. But suddenly Cole looks 0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:28.639 around and they are completely surrounded. It's the rivermen, it's 0:02:28.639 --> 0:02:34.240 the widgew wolves. It's over. Cole still seeking to like 0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:42.640 impress his own personal narrative for his own life, the 0:02:42.680 --> 0:02:46.760 way he wants to die on the events makes it 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.600 I think a pretty courageous offer. He's like, listen, I'll fight. 0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:53.360 I'll fight you one on one or one on two 0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:55.720 or however many. You know, what do you want to do? 0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:59.240 You me versus Roddy and Oscar, Like we could do 0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:03.360 it that way in exchange, Yeah, whatever's fair and in 0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:09.200 exchange for that, uh, let my men go. And that's 0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:10.000 not gonna happen. 0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:13.359 I'm sorry. Crazy thing for him to ask after they've 0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:16.160 been going around just killing people with no honor, Like 0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:21.240 christ mind, like you been a like living ghoul to 0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:24.359 this honest and you did a great job. But he's 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:27.240 in a great job hostness. I do, I will say, 0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:30.119 obviously deep Christian khole hater, but I do think Fabian 0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:32.040 and I do think the writers have done a really 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:35.200 interesting job of kind of showing someone who has just 0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:37.680 been downtrodden their whole life trying to find some kind 0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:39.760 of agency at the end of their life, some kind 0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:42.960 of moral righteousness, and even though he obviously cannot really 0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:46.440 achieve it, I did find this to be quite a 0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:53.160 powerful moment until he pulled that allisents fucking she doesn't 0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:56.520 even think, I was yelling at the TV. I was like, 0:03:56.600 --> 0:03:59.600 she's never even thinking about your name. She liked it, No, 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:03.200 I'm it blasts for him, like I didn't dislike it 0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:06.680 as a choice, but I didn't like it for him. 0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:09.680 So he realizes, like, this is probably gonna be the end. 0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:13.720 And as you mentioned, he pulls out of his sleeve 0:04:14.400 --> 0:04:18.159 Alison's titty napkin that she gave him, and it's with 0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:23.840 the embroidered A on it and beautiful lace napkin her 0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:28.200 favor as they would say in the world, and he's 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:33.239 about to say something brave when a bunch of arrows 0:04:33.320 --> 0:04:38.039 hit him, including through the face and chest with the 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:43.960 eyes with the coup de gras being unleashed by Black 0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:49.680 Alleys characters of the river Lands who we don't really 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:53.480 get to to know through the course of the show. 0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:59.120 But yes, that is it's certainly right because they do a. 0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:02.520 Really long shot on her face and I was immediately 0:05:02.600 --> 0:05:05.280 like yeah, I was immediately like, okay, this is really important. 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:08.800 It's obviously how And I actually really like this moment 0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:11.240 because I think it's fitting for Coal, like he doesn't 0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:14.320 get to determine how he dies at the hands of 0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:16.760 people that he's wronged, but he also didn't have to 0:05:16.800 --> 0:05:20.240 die under the wrath of like Ormond, so in his 0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:21.880 own way, he kind of gets to die the way 0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:23.720 he wanted. It's it's really interesting. 0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:27.279 I will say that Black Alley, so Black Alley is 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:35.080 Alison Blackwood, member of House Blackwood. She is related to 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:39.040 some notable people in this world. Some of that spoilers 0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:42.880 will say that for later she is, you know, at 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:45.840 this age, I think she's like should be in the 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:47.599 books anyway, she's like sixteen years. 0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:49.960 I was gonna say she was giving catnus. I think 0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:51.599 she's meant to be like late teens. 0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:55.520 And then definitely, like with the face paint struck me. 0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:59.680 I don't know. For the Skyrim heads out there reminded 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:02.800 me of Ala the Huntress, who is a Nord werewolf 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:08.840 and member of the of which guild is that the 0:06:09.760 --> 0:06:16.240 Companions which are like these kind of mercenary mercenary group 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:20.720 that go on like various side quests throughout Skyrim. But 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:24.880 the face paint really reminded me of that. And so 0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:29.520 she delivers the Kudu grat and clearly he didn't want 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:31.279 to go down this way, and then the wolves and 0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:34.800 the Riverman Russian and presumably slaughter everybody. 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:37.040 I also want to quickly say about like going back 0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:40.080 to the napkin momentarily. One thing I loved that they did. 0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:42.800 And this might have just been for me or the 0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:44.360 way I read it because I got bad eyesight. I'm 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:48.320 wearing glasses, guys. But like, when he pulls the napkin out, 0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:50.880 at first, it looks like it's an R because of 0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:54.120 the way that the Allison is written. The A at 0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:56.760 the bottom has this huge round moment, so when he 0:06:56.800 --> 0:06:58.719 first brought it out, I was like, wait, what And 0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:00.600 then it reveals itself to be the A. So they 0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:03.440 just have so much fun with kind of his history, 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:06.320 and I'm just so fucking good. I love this episode. 0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:10.600 Yes, very fun. So this is the This battle, by 0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:13.600 the way, is the is like the infamous Butcher's ball 0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:15.920 from the books called the Pacher's Ball because it's just 0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:18.840 like a complete route and christ and Cole dies and 0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:21.960 his men really get just steamrolled the. 0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:25.880 Red Oscar Tully Young Tully because he is Han in 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:28.320 the last episode who said to the head of the 0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:30.520 winter Wolves. He was like, I will enjoy Christen Cole 0:07:30.600 --> 0:07:33.240 no more. Let's fucking do it his way, Like he 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:36.640 was the one who came up with this plan. Was 0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:39.760 like this, let's trap them instead of just sending the wolvester. 0:07:40.200 --> 0:07:43.000 He's a tough He's a tough little kid, and I 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:46.680 love him and Dustin. Oh I wish there was I 0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:51.360 wish there was some other stuff about Roderick and Oscar Tully, 0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:57.120 like an odd couple story arc. Anyway, we go to 0:07:57.120 --> 0:08:00.360 the Red Keep. The guards find Alison and Helena stuck 0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:04.920 in the stuck in the walls, like like you know 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:06.400 where they had become lost. 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:09.280 Like get stuck in that forever, which was my fea. 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:11.120 I thought they might just die in that. So this 0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:11.679 is okay. 0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:15.200 We go to the Small Council. Damon, of course, is uh, 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:18.280 you know, brings news about the slaughter of the city Watchmen, 0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:23.120 his beloved city watchmen. Raniera meanwhile, wants to know, like 0:08:23.280 --> 0:08:27.840 when is Oscar and Roderick? When will their army reach Tumbleton? 0:08:27.920 --> 0:08:30.040 What's going on with that? Turns out they've been delayed 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:31.880 by coal. They obviously don't know that coal is dead. 0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:36.680 Now Damon is like, again, why don't we just burn 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:39.520 the whole thing, burn the whole thing from the sky. 0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:44.960 Fuck it? Who cares? Missaria is arguing, don't give Ormond 0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:47.600 what he wants the bad pr is what he wants. 0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:50.920 He wants to be able to say, see what happens 0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:54.760 when you support Raniera, you get burned anyway. Sabbath the 0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:57.640 Fray and Lord torn Manderley, on the other side of 0:08:57.679 --> 0:09:02.560 the table, both come down on the side of the 0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:04.679 argument that says burning the town would. 0:09:04.520 --> 0:09:07.600 Be a little that's so funny. I love their addition 0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:10.760 to the Small Council, Like it's peak early Game of 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:13.280 Thrones where you get these like sassy in characters who 0:09:13.320 --> 0:09:15.600 are both like, oh yeah, I'm sure they'll love that. 0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:18.320 The drag Tory Mantley has this great line where he goes, 0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:21.920 oh yeah, the fire that just magically knows who is 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:25.000 bad and who is good when it hits, Like I 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:26.640 was like, that's a fucking great line. 0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:30.920 Meanwhile, paraphrasing, Meanwhile, Damon says something like I don't want 0:09:30.960 --> 0:09:36.640 to hear from anybody who their battle experience is like 0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:38.720 battling with a chicken leg. 0:09:40.760 --> 0:09:44.319 His head, Like there's no fucking decorum in this house, 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:46.800 in this meat the Small Council, and I will. 0:09:46.640 --> 0:09:49.600 See to be fair, Lord Torren should just keep his 0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:53.720 mind on economic matters and whatever, like you're on the 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:59.480 small council. I get it, Alan says. He also comes 0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:02.760 down on the of let's just be judicious. Says, Listen, 0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:06.120 we wait for the army. We use overwhelming force with 0:10:06.200 --> 0:10:10.000 the army, but it's discriminating. We don't kill the women 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:13.680 and children and the civilians of Tumbleton. These are your subjects, 0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:17.720 people who again bent the knee to you, but absolutely 0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:23.840 genocidal slaughter against Ormond to the high towers. Yeah, Damon 0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:27.240 is like, listen, remember An go On the conquer the 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:30.480 original guy. He killed everybody at the field of fire, 0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:34.800 and nobody gave a shit. Nobody cared. So pull your 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.559 pull your big girl pants up and let's just burn 0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:41.439 the town. Raniera then goes, well, my dad would not 0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:45.720 have done that, which Damon does not have liked, because listen, 0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:50.000 nobody knows you already know. Nobody knows Visceras like Damon did. 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:53.840 They had a very close relationship, I think, and I 0:10:53.840 --> 0:10:57.800 think Damon really Damon loved his brother clearly, but also 0:10:57.880 --> 0:11:01.960 thought he was soft and can and envisioned his role 0:11:02.000 --> 0:11:05.360 as kind of the sword of the realm, like to 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:10.680 be the hard ass. But Damon it really doesn't want 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:14.679 to think about Tumbleton that much because there are insurgents 0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:18.040 inside the city walls. They have slaughtered his men. What 0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:20.680 are we going to do about it? Security in the 0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:25.200 city is paramount because Queen Ranier is here, the royal 0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:30.320 government is here. Raniera says, Okay, let's send to Corlis. Alan, 0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:34.440 go to your dad and ask Corlis for more men 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:37.480 so that we can reinforce the city and you know, 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:40.200 reinforce the city watch guys who have either died or 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:44.680 have quit. As she's leaving the small Council, she learns 0:11:44.679 --> 0:11:49.240 that there's a contingent of Barathian men here to meet her, 0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:53.959 but not Lord Boros himself. Lord Boroughs continue continues to 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:58.560 run away from the smoke. Is dodging the smoke. He 0:11:58.760 --> 0:12:03.840 has been requests personally by the Queen in the city, 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:06.959 but instead he's like, oh, the vulture King. I gotta 0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:09.880 deal with the vulture king instead. Sorry, the Vulture King 0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:11.199 was highwayman? 0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:13.640 Like who is he in the books? Like is this 0:12:13.720 --> 0:12:16.360 a name that fans are immediately like? Okay? Is this 0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:19.880 like telling someone, oh, I can't come because like there's 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:22.360 traffic on the one ten? Like is it just a nothing? 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:28.560 Does I mean it's not a nothing. So the Vulture 0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:34.959 King is a dread pirate Roberts esque in the sense 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:37.240 that there were there was like one vulture King, two 0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:40.840 vulture kings, three there was. Right, it's a mantle so 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:48.160 is a to be fair, very annoying outlaw who was 0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:52.080 based in the kind of red mountains of Dorn region 0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:58.000 that is borders of the storm Lands and was constantly 0:12:58.120 --> 0:13:02.240 raiding into the storm lands across the marches, and you know, 0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:05.960 is a very annoying guy that said it does not 0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:09.440 require in my opinion, Lord Borrow's personally, but clearly he 0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:13.280 doesn't as many of the great houses don't want to 0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:16.440 do does not want to get personally involved until it's 0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:17.680 clear which way this is gonna go? 0:13:17.840 --> 0:13:20.520 Does unclear feel like that? Right? So? Can I just ask, 0:13:20.640 --> 0:13:24.120 as a you know, I'm an outsider watching this West 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:28.960 Rosi news essentially as the insider, how are people feeling 0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:31.080 about that right now? Because I feel like on both 0:13:31.160 --> 0:13:34.120 sides we see that the houses are struggling to work 0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:36.280 out where this is going to land, the daring of 0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:38.640 it all, the venera of it all, even though she 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:42.440 sits the throne, is this like a particularly unstable time 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:42.960 right now? 0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:47.160 Yeah? I mean it makes it makes a lot of sense. 0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:50.079 And it's something from the books as well, that the 0:13:51.040 --> 0:13:54.640 great houses, except for the Starks, who sent a kitchener 0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:57.760 sent the winter Wolves, and we'll see if they will 0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:01.239 send anyone else, and the Lanisters, who are directly involved 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:05.680 on the on the green side, pretty much everybody else's 0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:08.319 is the big houses have stayed out of it. Now, 0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:10.559 you could argue that the High Towers are a great 0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:14.319 house and all but name, which is true, and Jane 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:17.600 Aaron has given some money and stuff. But for the 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:21.840 most part, everybody, nobody wants to stick their neck out 0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:25.640 until somebody seems like they're really winning, in which case 0:14:25.720 --> 0:14:28.560 everybody will pile on to the winning side. And that's 0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:32.320 not just like historically, like how a lot of these 0:14:32.360 --> 0:14:36.400 conflicts based in the you know, these medieval conflicts unfolded, 0:14:36.840 --> 0:14:39.880 but it's how conflicts unfolded over the course of Game 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:43.120 of Thrones too. Who's like, people, wait, nobody wants to 0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:45.200 risk everything. 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:47.720 To see you before they know. Everyone wants to be 0:14:47.760 --> 0:14:48.520 the second right. 0:14:48.720 --> 0:14:50.600 So the brathyan Men are here and they're like, Lord 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:53.160 Boris can come. He's fighting the Bulsher King and Rnier's 0:14:53.240 --> 0:14:56.520 fucking piss and she's like, well, you know, I could 0:14:56.520 --> 0:14:59.120 just like execute you guys, because I think you're really annoying. 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.280 This, so just hang you because he didn't come bound. 0:15:01.840 --> 0:15:04.640 And he's and so these nights are like, well, is 0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:07.880 there anything else that we can offer the Queen in 0:15:08.000 --> 0:15:11.360 lieu of the presence of Lord Boroughs And she says, 0:15:11.400 --> 0:15:13.360 give me your belt, which we don't know what that means. 0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:15.320 Very mysterious at this point. We'll find out. 0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:17.440 I was gonna say, because in the moment I had this, 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:19.840 I was like, okay, is this either she's gonna play 0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:23.200 it as like she claimed it, or is it gonna 0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:25.240 be like she's gonna hang him with the belt? I 0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:27.080 thought that would have been pretty brutal. But we will 0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:28.760 learn where it goes, and it goes, we will are 0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:29.920 very fucking crazy. 0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:34.440 We go to Tumbleton Hue, the Hammer flies Verma Thorion 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:38.800 on a scouting mission and then lands nearby washed Rocks 0:15:38.880 --> 0:15:41.880 have a question mark have they They have a chat 0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:45.920 about well, mostly off monologue is about malt lemon market day, 0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:49.800 the market day, the sound, the bells winging, the sound, 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:53.480 smell red pie, lamprey pie. 0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:58.880 You know scones, butter scones and a nice Lotte. 0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:03.120 And when just coming out of the bars. 0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:10.040 The breast glistening with ale and sweat. I loved it, didn't. 0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:10.560 You love it? 0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:12.840 Do you love it all? And almost like I'm married? 0:16:13.280 --> 0:16:13.400 Uh? 0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:19.160 I mean she was like, I'm married. He loves his wife. 0:16:19.400 --> 0:16:21.920 So but you know, olf Is is basically saying like 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:24.720 I took it for granted, and it's clear that he's 0:16:24.880 --> 0:16:28.160 very frustrated. They both are, but a more pointedly frustrated 0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:31.000 with what service to the Queen has meant in reality, 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:33.120 which is like a lot of orders to go do 0:16:33.200 --> 0:16:37.120 stuff and not a lot of the breast glistening with 0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:41.640 ale and smell of scones in the errands exactly. And 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:44.840 so he was like, you know, would you would you 0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:46.800 give it up? Like would you stop doing this? And 0:16:46.880 --> 0:16:51.760 I'll clearly would know, would not do that? But wants 0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:55.920 more he does, and I think they both want order. 0:16:56.000 --> 0:16:57.240 Hugh clearly wants more as well. 0:16:57.680 --> 0:16:57.840 Hm. 0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:01.680 We go to the Red Keep, Reania comes to see 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:04.720 Alison again, and here's where I began to get the 0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:09.720 feeling that yes, Rania wants information from Alison and Helena 0:17:10.320 --> 0:17:14.679 and maybe a little bit of perspective from the other side, 0:17:15.040 --> 0:17:17.399 like what what might the Greens be thinking? Yeah, but 0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:20.880 you also get the feeling that, like, this is her 0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:25.160 childhood friend and she's not getting she's not getting any 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:28.760 traction or support from her small counsel or anybody. And 0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:32.159 you almost get the feeling that Raniera's like, let me 0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:32.880 just talk to my. 0:17:32.800 --> 0:17:37.200 Friends out that fucking like God advice. No, Jason, You're 0:17:37.280 --> 0:17:40.400 so right. There is this great moment here that go 0:17:40.440 --> 0:17:42.920 for the do the recap, and then I'll pinpoint in 0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:46.159 a moment where you are confirmed, I believe. 0:17:46.640 --> 0:17:48.960 So she comes to see Alison, and of course she's 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:54.040 angry about this attempted escape. And Alison, when I when 0:17:54.080 --> 0:17:55.480 I was a kid, I snuck out. I used to 0:17:55.520 --> 0:17:58.480 sneak out through my My bedroom was on the ground floor, 0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:01.440 and I would and especially during this summertime, I'd push 0:18:01.560 --> 0:18:04.680 my air conditioner out of the way and like and 0:18:04.800 --> 0:18:08.879 wiggle through the gap and go gallivanting out into the 0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:10.800 streets with my friends. And one time I was riding 0:18:10.800 --> 0:18:14.000 my bike home at like eleven or forty five and 0:18:14.440 --> 0:18:16.879 my stepdad drove by me and I was like hundred 0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:20.080 percent he saw me, and then I managed to flip 0:18:20.160 --> 0:18:22.399 it in that you know, I got home there waiting 0:18:22.400 --> 0:18:26.040 for me, and I was like, yeah, but everybody else's 0:18:26.440 --> 0:18:30.399 curfew is eleven o'clock and it's just not fair that, 0:18:30.920 --> 0:18:33.679 like I'm home at nine. It's ridiculous and everybody is 0:18:33.720 --> 0:18:36.840 out till eleven, like I'm fifteen or little. And I 0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:40.000 gotta tell you, this is what Allison does. Alison manages, 0:18:40.960 --> 0:18:43.600 manages to flip it. She's like, well, you know, hold 0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:47.600 Ona is pregnancy. I'm what would you do, Like I understand, 0:18:47.640 --> 0:18:49.280 like the position you're in, you're gonna have to kill 0:18:49.320 --> 0:18:50.879 this baby at some point, when he was like no, 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:54.600 I do that. Come on, maybe a hostage, but you 0:18:54.640 --> 0:18:57.120 know I'm not gonna kill a child, and Alison's like, bitch, 0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:57.680 yes you will. 0:18:57.760 --> 0:18:58.840 You would stop. 0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:02.280 It, Yes you would, And but Alison then goes listen, 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:04.639 it was my fault, not Helene. Is obviously like Helena 0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:07.280 doesn't have thoughts of escape, like this is my idea, 0:19:07.680 --> 0:19:11.439 So you're gonna puish anybody punish me, and Rania is like, okay, well, 0:19:11.440 --> 0:19:16.200 I'm gonna increase security around both of you. And meanwhile, 0:19:16.880 --> 0:19:19.679 you know I am fighting your cousins like outside the city, 0:19:19.760 --> 0:19:22.160 as well, like Ormond's really giving me a lot of shit, 0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:23.800 So okay, this is like a tough. 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:26.080 Position, and this is this is where she goes. She 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:28.240 kind of lists off. She's like, you know, your cousin 0:19:28.320 --> 0:19:30.720 is this, your cousin is that high towers? Blah blah blah, 0:19:30.800 --> 0:19:32.800 and and then she goes to them, you're this, and 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:35.320 then Allison says that, she goes and what am I 0:19:35.440 --> 0:19:40.080 to you? And then Ranera goes, don't try me before 0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:43.080 she tells how the room and I was like, fuck, yeah, 0:19:43.119 --> 0:19:46.400 it's Jason. You're so right. It's like the two teenage 0:19:46.440 --> 0:19:49.320 girls are back at it again, like and and and 0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:52.280 Ranera is so great and well, I mean both of them, 0:19:52.480 --> 0:19:56.959 Emma and Olivia are so great, because yeah, everything that 0:19:57.000 --> 0:20:00.720 Olivia is doing as Alison at this point is defensible 0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:03.080 to us because we care about Helena. She's like the 0:20:03.160 --> 0:20:09.080 one good person. And I love to see Allison now 0:20:09.160 --> 0:20:11.560 in a protective mode, which we haven't really seen. And 0:20:11.600 --> 0:20:13.800 also it might just be to protect herself, but it's 0:20:13.920 --> 0:20:17.359 very interesting and I love to kind of see Raniera 0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:21.280 at this vulnerable backstep, returning to her friend who honestly 0:20:21.320 --> 0:20:23.480 she probably still can't trust. Just like she couldn't trust 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:26.480 back then. But this interaction is so fantastic. It says 0:20:26.480 --> 0:20:27.479 so much about both of them. 0:20:27.560 --> 0:20:33.760 Right now, Rania meets with Massaria to kind of all 0:20:34.000 --> 0:20:38.879 this recent development, and Messoria, first of all, Massaria is like, 0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:42.880 what they try to do with Helene's pregnant? What crazy? 0:20:44.000 --> 0:20:49.440 So she took as she took Allison's advice. Hey, this 0:20:49.520 --> 0:20:52.600 is like compilation. She didn't tell Raniera us. She's now 0:20:52.640 --> 0:20:55.200 got this high tower favor that is owed to her. 0:20:56.480 --> 0:20:59.040 I think I would always right Jason, I overestimated her. 0:20:59.080 --> 0:20:59.960 She is not here too. 0:21:00.640 --> 0:21:03.480 Here's the thing though, now high tower favor. I would 0:21:03.560 --> 0:21:11.320 argue that now Alison has leverage over Missaria. Alison could 0:21:11.359 --> 0:21:13.480 say to Rania, well, guess what. Guess who knew your 0:21:13.520 --> 0:21:18.520 fucking mistress of Whispers knew that everything, knew that Helena 0:21:18.600 --> 0:21:20.840 was pregnant, knew that we were gonna escape Saws as 0:21:20.880 --> 0:21:23.160 we were trying to escape. She didn't tell you, Okay, 0:21:23.359 --> 0:21:27.760 so can you trust her anyway? 0:21:27.760 --> 0:21:30.320 Alison? I'm using that instantly, Like, come. 0:21:30.160 --> 0:21:35.280 On, So Missia pretends that she didn't know, and then 0:21:35.400 --> 0:21:39.080 she has basically has a guard take care of the 0:21:39.119 --> 0:21:41.080 maid who knew about the moon Tea in order to 0:21:41.160 --> 0:21:46.879 keep her the thread that connects to her, and that 0:21:46.920 --> 0:21:49.880 she would have known from spreading across the castle, which 0:21:49.920 --> 0:21:53.320 is pretty ruthless. And again that's just cover your ass. 0:21:53.320 --> 0:21:55.480 Shit is terrible. 0:21:55.560 --> 0:21:58.560 This is terrible. This is kind of my issue now. 0:21:58.600 --> 0:22:01.280 I think you were right, Jason, and I had overestimated 0:22:01.280 --> 0:22:06.320 her ability to think bigger than herself and covering her 0:22:06.400 --> 0:22:08.280 own tracks, and that is not what you need to 0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:10.560 be if you're the master of whispers. Like and when 0:22:10.600 --> 0:22:14.800 she then also sells out another worker to essentially cover 0:22:14.880 --> 0:22:16.640 her tracks by calling her a thief and a liar 0:22:17.040 --> 0:22:19.320 and maybe having her killed, I guess is the implication 0:22:19.560 --> 0:22:22.160 that's fucking crazy to me. Bitch like you go, You're 0:22:22.160 --> 0:22:24.840 gonna end up in a bad situation. It's not gonna 0:22:24.920 --> 0:22:27.040 end well for you. I'm sorry, but it's true. 0:22:27.280 --> 0:22:29.119 Go get me, go, get me some whispers. Where are 0:22:29.119 --> 0:22:29.920 the whispers at? 0:22:30.040 --> 0:22:33.600 I haven't had one whisper whispering. You didn't tell me 0:22:33.840 --> 0:22:36.359 you kept the one whisper. 0:22:35.880 --> 0:22:39.359 No, terrible. Let's see a quick break and we'll be 0:22:39.400 --> 0:22:56.840 back at the park. And we're back. We go to 0:22:58.920 --> 0:23:03.280 the City Watch headquarters. The watchman who survived the dinner 0:23:03.320 --> 0:23:10.240 Massaker come to Damon, and quite understandably, they quit in 0:23:10.359 --> 0:23:14.440 mass it's too dangerous. There's no money in the coffers. 0:23:14.560 --> 0:23:18.040
