After a sub-par episode last week, HBO‘s House of the Dragon gets back on track with Season 3, Episode 6. And despite his disadvantages (aka, only one dragon) we’re starting to get a sense of how Ormund Hightower (James Norton) is a serious threat. Plus some major character deaths right off the bat. And it was funny? I laughed out loud at least twice watching this episode? Wild!
Spoilers past this point, but before we get into the recap, let’s discuss that big character death… Following directly on his promise to die in battle last episode, Criston Cole (Fabien Frankel) dies in the opening scene of this week’s episode, vastly out-maneuvered by the Winter Wolves and Oscar Tully (Archie Barnes). And he’s even robbed of a glorious warrior’s death as he gets shot with several arrows, similar to how Jace (Harry Collett) was unceremoniously skewered back in the season premiere.
Look, I have gone on record many times as wanting Cole to die (nothing against Frankel, who seems very funny in real life) as he’s more than served his purpose on the show. But watching this death, and seeing him get shot down by a bunch of C-listers was still pretty sad. He’s also still pining for Alicent (Olivia Cooke), and given her own dire circumstances (she’s stuck inside the walls of the Red Keep) she’s not even aware he’s dead at any point in this episode. One-sided romance never felt like such a bummer, man.
Speaking of which, part of what helped get this episode on the rails is that it focused so squarely on the predicaments Alicent and Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) find themselves in. The duo are the heart of the show, and House of the Dragon has time and again dug into how their circumstances and mistakes trump their own friendship. If the two of them worked together, they’d be unstoppable. As is, they are very, very stoppable.
Plus, there’s so much more going on this hour, including Hugh Hammer (Kieran Bew) getting shut down by his wife, Kat (Ellora Torchia), a ton of smoochies, a shocking reveal of a very important clutch of dragon eggs, and Corlys (Steve Toussaint) being left at the end attacked, and possibly killed.
Without further delay, let’s get into the recap for the episode. As usual, HBO hasn’t provided the episode title in advance. So let’s assume this one is called “I Would, But I Need The Eggs,” and see how close we come. And as a note, we’ll break this up (mostly) by location, versus in strict chronological order.
The Riverlands
Another episode, another quiet opening as we watch Cole’s exhausted army (or what’s left of them) walk through the sunlit woods. Cole is told they found one of Tully’s camps, but as they go to investigate they realize “something strange has happened there.” That strange thing is that everyone seems to be dead. They’re not, though, which Cole realizes about a second too late: they’re faking, and when the Rivermen stand up, they begin to slaughter Cole’s men.
He fights back valiantly, taking down multiple Rivermen all on his own, swinging his flail to gross effect. And for a moment it even seems like they’ve been victorious. But no, this was just the first of two tricks. Basically, this fight was meant to deplete Cole’s numbers further – he’s at two handfuls of men now, tops – and wear them out. When Cole shouts “we light the way!” in victory, out come the Winter Wolves and Tully’s whole, massive army, surrounding them.
Cole, this time, instantly knows what’s up, and that they’re about to die. Tully calls out Cole, labeling him a “traitor.” Cole tries to bargain for his men’s lives, but Tully won’t hear it. “I told them I’d build a sept out of traitor’s bones,” Tully says about his promise to his own dead. “I don’t have near enough bones yet.”
Cole swears they’ll take a bunch of them down first, and Roderick Dustin (Tommy Flanagan) welcomes it: “What better way to die than blade in hand?” To jump forward a second, Cole does die with his blade in his hand, but not how Dustin means. In any case, he pulls out the handkerchief Alicent gave him long ago before he headed off to battle, which he keeps in his sleeve. He rubs her embroidering, and wraps it around the handle of his sword, ready to fight.
“Let us begin here, then,” Cole says, suggesting that he take on Roderick and Oscar, a way of him dying a heroic death. Roderick sighs, disappointed, and Cole gets impaled with one arrow, then another. A third hits him right in the cheek, just below the eye, and he keels over, dead. Roderick signals his army, and they proceed to wipe out the rest of Cole’s men, an ignominious end for the self-proclaimed greatest knight in the realm.
King’s Landing
While Cole dies, Alicent and Helaena (Phia Saban) are inside the walls of the Red Keep in the dark. Last episode I wondered about what the big deal was with Helaena dropping her lantern, since Alicent also had a lantern (if you’ll recall, they tried to escape only to find the exit blocked by stone). In any case, they’re in the dark, both physically and metaphorically, so I guess Alicent’s lantern went out, too. Huge if true!
While the castle guards finds Team Green, Rhaenyra is once again sitting at a contentious Small Council meeting, though small favors for the Small Council it’s now almost at full strength. Daemon (Matt Smith) is livid about nearly the entire City Watch getting murdered, and he wants to burn out Lord Ormund as revenge. Mysaria (Sonoya Mizuno) brings up the regular argument against this: Rhaenyra cannot simply burn her subjects to death, as Ormund is currently holding all of Tumbleton hostage. Daemon doesn’t care, and says he’ll fly right up to the Footly stronghold, with Torrhen Manderly (Dan Fogler) sarcastically noting that dragons of course can discern between who is bad, and who is good – to which Daemon throws something at him, the first surprising laugh of the episode.
In between all this in-fighting, there’s one totally reasonable voice who actually seems to command Rhaenyra’s attention: Alyn of Hull (Abubakar Salim), who is sitting in as Hand for his father, Corlys. He preaches caution and patience, to wait for her army to get to Tumbleton. But Daemon is impatient, likely because he feels personally affronted by his Gold Cloaks getting killed under his watch. While Rhaenyra wants to be more like her father than the burninating of Aegon the Conqueror (as Daemon urges), her patience is wearing thin. “I will send knives,” she explains, which Daemon thinks means him… But nope. Rhaenyra wants him to track down the killers in the city, with Alyn offering Velaryon men to aid him. He turns them down, and by the end of the episode we’ll see how this little display of pettiness from Daemon leads to disaster.
Just then the delegation from House Baratheon arrives, and we get to see Rhaenyra in full Queen mode. Lord Borros (Roger Evans) is off in the Red Mountains fighting the Vulture King, which sounds very cool (picturing a bird man of some sort, but probably not), but we don’t get to see that. And Rhaenyra takes this as the insult it is, with the man Borros sent stammering and trying to explain why he’s there instead of his lord, with Rhaenyra threatening hanging. And she hatches a plan as a sign of their fealty, which we find out about later: she takes their belts (and probably other clothes) to dress assassins as the Baratheon delegation to go and kill Ormund and Daeron.
With that plot hatching out of the way, Rhaenyra goes to deal with another problem: Alicent. And of note, she talks to her friend privately. While Rhaenyra immediately begins digging into Alicent, she stops the Queen’s rant by revealing that Helaena is pregnant. Alicent is pretty straight up with Rhaenyra, who takes the news petulantly; but Alicent is logical about it and lays out all the things Rhaenyra could do with a child.
Alicent is right about all of this, but also, she tried to run away and Rhaenyra can’t be showing her preferential treatment. She confines them to their quarters and doubles their guards, with Alicent begging to be sent away, or anything that won’t lead her fragile daughter to lose her mind further. And now it’s Rhaenyra who logically lays out how the Hightowers are laying siege to her rule. “You are a Hightower,” Rhaenyra says. “To my court you are the enemy.”
“And to you?” asks Alicent, getting at the crux of the entire series.
Leaving Alicent’s chambers, Rhaenyra consults with Mysaria, asking if she knew anything about the pregnancy… And Mysaria lies, instead sending one of the guards to kill the chambermaid who provides the only link between her and Alicent.
Outside the city, Alyn goes to talk to Corlys, who is working hard hanging people from trees. Hey, it’s a tough job, but someone has got to do it. He wants Corlys to get more men from Driftmark to shore up the City Watch, and Corlys – like Ulf over in Tumbleton (more on that in a bit) – seems exhausted by the mere thought of Rhaenyra. He digs into her for denying Alyn legitimacy, but he shoots back a pretty pointed retort: “How many years did it take you to do the same?”
Before Alyn leaves, Corlys gives him one piece of info from the Triarchy pirates he’s hunting down: Tyland Lannister (Jefferson Hall) survived the Battle of the Gullet and is headed for Rook’s Rest. We, the viewers, know he’s already there, but this is a pretty key piece of info because also there are Aegon (Tom Glynn-Carney) and Larys (Matthew Needham).
What’s next for our steadfast Hand stand-in? He heads to the dragonpit, where Baela (Bethany Antonia) is finally getting some rest. They have a conversation about being tired, and he tells her about seeing Corlys… He wants her to talk to him since there’s a distance between them, which is a nice reminder of where the two of them are on each other’s family tree: Baela is Corlys’s granddaughter, while Alyn is his son; albeit from two different mothers, so only half-uncle and half-niece. Surely that won’t be weird in a few minute’s time, right? Right.
Bonding about their absent fathers, Baela laments how she can’t help her own father (that would be Daemon) let alone his. After a moment, the exhausted Baela stands up, and slowly walks towards Alyn. “You’re very dutiful,” she says, adding that it must be “wearisome, tending to everyone else all the time.” And with that, the romantic sparks we sensed a few episodes back come to a head as the two furiously make out. Er… Yuck! Please can someone not kiss a blood relation on this show? [Great news, I get my wish later in the episode, and it’s still weird.]
Upstairs, a silent Helaena is busy cross-stitching, while Alicent begs her to eat. Her issue? Alicent lied about them escaping with Jaehaera, which after some prodding Alicent admits: she was going to just get the two of them to safety, not Helaena’s daughter. Alicent tries to explain it away, but it doesn’t matter, because Helaena sees her: she only wants to save herself. Yet as Alicent explains it, perhaps if she can save her daughter, she will save herself. Emotionally.
…Which is when we get a wild reveal that fans have speculated about for a long time: Helaena is likely the one weaving the tapestries in the opening credits. While it could just be a fun coincidence, what she’s been stitching is Aemond, in a cocoon of blood, in Harrenhal, being tended to by Alys. And it’s exactly in the style of those tapestries in the opening credits which tell the past, present, and future of the Targaryen dynasty. The point here is that it gives Alicent the ammunition to get a better deal from Rhaenyra (sort of); but for the meta-story of the show, this is a Big Deal.
Before Alicent can reveal this to Rhaenyra, we get another “uhoh, Queen’s losing it” scene set in the Throne room. While a baby cries and the people ask for tallow for their candles, she barely can sit in her pointy sword chair. More importantly, one of the girls was taken from the sept, and Rhaenyra shocks the crowd by saying she’ll light a candle for her – instead of taking any real action. While Rhaenyra is open about who is to blame here (that would be Ormund), it’s clear she’s not acting like a Queen, she’s offering thoughts and prayers, and blaming other people for things she should be dealing with.
And as the people yell at her, scared for protection, she cuts herself on the throne. While this might seem like a little thing… It’s actually a big, frickin’ deal, because whether true or not it’s generally believed that the throne cuts those who become mentally unstable. To drive that point home, I could be wrong about this, but I believe she gazes at the massive statue of Aegon the Conqueror in the throne room… Is she considering that she shouldn’t be wasting time with the people? Or is she worried that they’ll sense the bubbling Targaryen madness inside her? Rather than reveal it or deal with the ramifications herself, she storms out of the throne room, as the people yell after her.
Rook’s Rest
Hey, what about Rook’s Rest? After killing Garrick (Douglas Russell) last episode, Tyland has joined Aegon and Larys’s ongoing comedy of errors, with Tyland digging an extremely shallow grave for the former Rook’s Rest leader, much to his general annoyance. The main thrust of the scene, though, isn’t even the body that will definitely be found by dogs; it’s Tyland and Larys presenting two different visions for Aegon’s future.
On Larys’s end, he’s “found passage to Braavos on a merchant cog out of Maidenpool,” basically taking him off the board until they can muster strength to take back King’s Landing. Tyland wants to bring Aegon back to Casterly Rock and establish a court before they take back Westeros. But what’s really sticking with Aegon is what Larys told him last episode, that he’s a terrible king, and a terrible man.
Aegon asks Tyland if he thinks he’s a terrible man, to which he stammers and prevaricates hilariously while Aegon watches, eventually hitting on, essentially, people are neither bad nor good. And that makes up Aegon’s mind… He goes with the person who has been brutally honest with him, who is Larys: they’re going to Essos.
The Vale
Meanwhile, over in Mountain Town, Rhaena (Phoebe Campbell), who is definitely not named Nettles, sees her sister flying past her cave on Moondancer. Curiously, we don’t get to see what she does next: fly after her, which alerts her presence, alongside her dragon Sheepstealer, to Jeyne Arryn (Amanda Collin).
Jeyne is busy throwing someone through the Moon Door, which we get from a slowly descending scream sound effect, followed by Jeyne opining, “Never ceases to be fascinating.” But this darkly comic moment aside, the point is she’s brought in Rhaena, who she immediately slaps. A lot of what happens next is recap: everyone thinks Sheepstealer’s rider is dead (because of a little trickery from Daemon), and if Rhaenyra finds out that rider is alive and in the Vale, Jeyne is probably dead as well.
And in fact, there’s an odd amount of movement in this storyline altogether other than reminding us these characters exist… Things are left with Rhaena once again being told to be in hiding, and Jeyne once again giving her one last chance. So, status quo all around.
Harrenhal
After killing a bunch of bounty hunters looking to kill Aemond (Ewan Mitchell), the one-eyed Targaryen is getting patched up by a thankful Alys Rivers (Gayle Rankin). And it’s all oddly romantic, particularly coming from Alys’s direction, as Aemond is planning on leaving to find his dragon Vhagar. While Aemond thinks something bad happened to Vhagar, Alys has another idea: stay in Harrenhal until the Spring. And perhaps Vhagar left to protect Aemond, she flew away so that nobody would know where he was.
Later, as Aemond prepares to leave, he’s spotted by a stableboy – who Alys immediately stabs to death… Which is a bummer, but Aemond was about to kill him anyway. Standing over the body, Alys explains she did it to prove she’ll keep his secret, with Aemond wondering what game she’s playing. “It’s yours to learn, if your spirit is willing,” Alys says.
And sure that sounds like more weird talk from Alys, but she reveals what she’s been hiding, and it is nuts. Going to a vine-encrusted room, she pulls out an old chest, and reveals it’s full of… Five dragon eggs, to Aemond’s stunned surprise. Also my stunned surprise, and probably yours as well! As the scene continues, Alys hands the cold dragon egg to Aemond, and it becomes warm in his hand, responding to his Targaryen blood. She explains that she’s tired of being a side character, and wants to have a family of her own. And they have a non-related-to-each-other-as-far-as-we-know kiss, which is nice for a change! Short version, they’re going to have babies and then give those babies dragons.
…But before we move on, we have got to talk about those dragon eggs. As far as I’m aware, these particular eggs have never popped up before, though – mild book spoilers – one of Alys and Aemond’s kids do get a dragon, which is likely where that came from. My first thought was that these are Daenerys’s (Emilia Clarke) eggs from Game of Thrones, but those are said to be more ancient eggs from the Shadowlands.
Except! I’m just gonna throw out there: I do think three of these eggs end up with Daenerys, and the story we’re told about them in GoT isn’t accurate. That’s because having a clutch of dragon eggs hanging around Harrenhal for hundreds of years is like Chekhov’s Gun, it has to go off some time. And House of the Dragon keeps looping back to the story of GoT, setting up events in different ways. It also has shown no allergy to tweaking the narrative from George R.R. Martin’s Fire and Blood. So I might be wrong here, but chances are Alys and Aemond keep at least one of these eggs, but somehow, some way three of them end up in the possession of Illyrio Mopatis (Roger Allam) in Pentos centuries later, for him to gift to Dany on the occasion of her wedding.
Will the show go this route? Maybe. But I doubt we’ll find out for at least another season. Okay, back to the recap, I’ll just add that Alys explains the eggs came from the dragon Dreamfyre, when Rhaena Targaryen (another one) came to Harrenhal after the death of her daughter. That’s it! Now you know.
Tumbleton
Outside the city, Hugh lands his dragon, getting ready for a changing of the guard with Ulf (Tom Bennett). If you’ll recall, they’re sitting outside Tumbleton as an implicit threat, taking shifts. And Ulf, who is bored out of his skull, is instead thinking about Market day in King’s Landing. What is Market day? That’s a day when you go to the market, I guess! Mainly, it’s a way of driving home that Ulf kind of hates being a dragon rider, while Hugh thinks that this is just a momentary stopgap until he gets back to his normal life (he’s in for a nasty surprise on that front later in the episode).
“What’s the point in having a dragon if there’s no one around to see it?” Ulf says, annoyed that he’s no longer allowed to brag to the lads. And while Ulf seems to be mostly a buffoon, we’ll also see by episode’s end that he’s a buffoon with a dragon who might be getting a little fed up with the whole Targaryen deal.
Ulf leaves Hugh to his two day watch, and heads off to his dragon, whistling and yelling “come on girl,” like she’s a horse.
Inside the town proper, Gwayne (Freddie Fox) comes hat in hand in front of Ormund after deserting Criston Cole, and Ormund is a real a-hole about it (but when isn’t he an a-hole). Still, the level of danger isn’t very high for Gwayne, as we’ve already established that he puts up with his fellow Hightower, but mostly rolls his eyes at him.
Gwayne’s philosophy? “Fighting on is madness,” and he doesn’t mean just Criston, he means Ormund, too. He doesn’t understand why Ormund is holding out, as he’s so overmatched. Ormund, though, doesn’t agree; he thinks they have the advantage. And more importantly, Ormund has rampant misogyny that tells him he’ll win against a lady Queen, no matter what.
Ormund and Gwayne go back and forth like brothers for a bit, with Ormund also poking him about his homosexual tendencies, and sends Daeron (Benjamin Evan Ainsworth) with him, warning him to watch his butt. As they exit, Gwayne digs into Daeron, and we get confirmation of something we suspected: Daeron likes Gwayne, and Gwayne left him with Ormund, an opportunistic predator who has now styled Daeron as the king, ascendant. Daeron speaks honestly about how he hates what Ormund is having him do, with Gwayne telling him simply: well, then don’t do it.
Gwayne isn’t even planning on staying in Tumbleton, he’s going to Oldtown after he takes a bath and a nap. But before he goes, Daeron has one question: “When you were in King’s Landing, did you see my mother?”
Flea Bottom
Over in Flea Bottom, Daemon considers the bloody message on the City Watch walls that reads, “A Feast For Traitors. And as he does, he’s approached by other members of the City Watch quitting to be with their families. He does not take it well, and digs into them. But they quit anyway, leaving the people of the city without protection; and Daemon without his own private army.
So what does Daemon do? Naturally, he puts on one of his crack disguises and investigates things himself. It’s actually pretty funny to see the guy who is clearly Daemon, locks of Targaryen hair flopping out of his City Watch helmet, as he sets himself up as bait for Ormund’s spies. It works, too, with the main spy we saw in a previous episode tracking Daemon to an alley.
Daemon subdues him, of course, jabbing a knife towards his ear as he demands answers. The man is unafraid, though, and revealed that his motivation is devotion to “Daeron the Daring.” And also hating Rhaenyra, to which Daemon stabs him in the ear, leaving him to die in the alleyway. But there’s one more kicker: he bumps into Ulf, who has expressly ignored Rhaenyra’s orders and is enjoying some air. He talks back to Daemon, who smacks him to the ground, to the shock of everyone watching. If there’s one thing that will turn the people against Rhaenyra, it’s this – not killing the nameless many in the alley. And frankly, it might also turn Ulf.
Tumbelton, Part 2
While Ulf is getting smacked around Flea Bottom, Hugh is about to get smacked in Tumbleton, emotionally. Also ignoring his duty, he steals a cart from a merchant, beating him up and taking his clothing so he can sneak into Tumbleton. While it seems like he might be the “knives” that Rhaenyra sent, that’s actually the “Baratheon” envoy right in front of him.
We’ll get back to Hugh in a second, but first Ormund is going on another one of his grueling misogynist rants during dinner to Gwayne and Daeron, breaking down how Corlys has “sound breeding,” but Otto Hightower (Rhys Ifans) he doesn’t seem to like, at all. That’s when the envoy enters. They’re covered in mud and probably feces, and if you’ll recall Rhaenyra is aware that Ormund had a sensitivity to strong scents, via info from Alicent. So she’s using that to her advantage, and while Ormund is fooled, Gwayne is not: he identifies them as assassins, and they manage to slay the interlopers, realizing they’re not really from House Baratheon. Their goal, by the way, seems clearly to kill Daeron specifically, with Ormund probably as a second.
Ormund is furious, and starts cursing out Rhaenyra, which is when we get our second big laugh of the episode as, unable to deal with the smells, throws up right in his goblet. It’s very gross, but another darkly funny moment in the episode that underscores how Ormund is a blowhard, first and foremost, pathetic in his own self-aggrandizement.
As Ormund is puking his guts out, Hugh finds Kat, who can’t believe her husband is there: she thought he was dead. They embrace, and she collapses, holding and hitting him. At first, it’s sweet and sad as they get each other caught up through the tears. Which is when Hugh ruins it: he talks about getting a dragon, and becoming a knight. But that’s not what Kat wants… She wanted – needed – her husband, but he seems once again only interested in his own station. And she reveals without revealing that she was likely raped on the way from King’s Landing to Tumbleton, and perhaps worse, though she’s not specific on that front.
It’s far from the reunion he wanted, and Kat rejects him, screaming when he tries to take her away. “I won’t forsake my family,” she says. “Who are you?” Earlier, Hugh asked Ulf if he would trade back everything he got for being a dragonrider, with the implication that they’re better off. Perhaps now Hugh is realizing that maybe he made the wrong decision.
As a chambermaid scrubs the floor, and Daeron trains on the sword, Ormund apologizes to Gwayne, impressed with what he did identifying the assassins. He tells him he can go home if he wants to and he won’t stop him. Gwayne defers from answering, swerving to talk about how Daeron would make a good king, “not that that matters to you.”
Ormund scoffs, but Gwayne knows him very, very well, and knows that while he will sacrifice others, he’d never put himself in danger. “So tell me, what is your plan here?” Gwayne asks. We don’t get the answer, but we do get the seeds of something beginning, and for that we have to return to…
King’s Landing, Part 2
Alicent goes to Rhaenyra, fresh off her throne cutting incident, with the former offering up information about Aemond in exchange for better treatment for Helaena. While Rhaenyra immediately jumps to the idea that Alicent has been holding out on her, instead she reveals that Helaena has the sight, and she knows that Aemond is at Harrenhal.
Rhaenyra accepts this – she knows about dreamers from the time of the Doom of Valyria – and working it out she comes up with the world’s most horrible plan… She won’t send swords to Harrenhal, because that will spook Aemond. Instead, she’s going to send Alicent, his mother, to kill him. First, Alicent had to offer up her son Aegon to save the realm, now she needs to murder her other son to save her daughter (and herself).
Alicent stammers, almost saying “I can’t kill my son” before finishing “I cannot leave Helaena,” but Rhaenyra assures her, “I will keep watch over her. Until you return.” Alicent is bitter, and it harkens back to the conversation earlier in the episode. What is Rhaenyra to Alicent? Not her friend. At least, not anymore. She’s her ruler, and she has become cruel. A crueler, if you will.
As Alicent prepares to leave, she feeds Helaena some soup and explains that Aemond is going to die either way – so why not free Helaena in the process? Which is when the daughter asks her mother why she married her to her own brother. Alicent tells her the truth, that it was Otto’s wish, “but I did not begrudge it. Better her with me, I thought, than a man you did not know in a place far away.”
With one spoonful of soup inside Helaena, Alicent promises her she’ll return, while Rhaenyra checks on her son, who she still has only visited while he sleeps. Alicent rides of into the darkness towards Harrenhal, and Maester Orwyle (Kurt Egyiawan) gives Rhaenyra one of the Tumbleton assassin’s vests. Written on it is, “Kick this dog and it will bite your hand.”
What does that mean? Well, outside King’s Landing, Corlys gives a rousing speech to his men, telling them they’re needed in the city. He’s planning on going home, but bookending the episode a group of men once again emerge from the woods… This time led by Ormund’s second-in-command Jon Roxton (Joplin Sibtain). As Jon watches Corlys be subdued, and possibly killed for the second time this season, his mind fan out to kill the rest of the Velaryon swords that were promised to keep the city safe. Clearly this is at least part of Ormund’s plan, but to what end?
That’s where we leave things this episode as we’ve got two hours left in the season… Is Corlys really dead this time, or merely a hostage? Will Rhaenyra head to Rook’s Rest to track down Tyland, only to discover Aegon, alive? Will Alicent be able to kill Aemond, or will Alys already be pregnant with his dragonriding bastard? And most importantly, will Helaena eat more than one spoonful of soup? Tune in next week, same dragon time, same dragon channel.
