The second season of "House of the Dragon" suffered another Waterloo.

After the fourth episode received an astonishing 9.6 points from 40,000 reviews, the fifth episode released this week also received an astonishing 7.7 points.


Moreover, Damon, the character we like to praise the most, is gradually losing his aura as a popular little boy because he starts to bite people.

Some viewers even compared this episode to the boring dead dragon meat that appeared at the beginning.

E5 Regent

After the Battle of Crow's Roost, Uncrowned King Rhaenys and Red Queen Melias died heroically, while Aegon II and his Sunfyre miraculously survived. However, when you see him being carried to the bed with his face burnt on both sides, you will find that death is a mercy to him.

As Viserys' eldest son, Aegon II eventually became like his father, which is really sad.

At the same time, "female discrimination" broke out between the Black Party and the Green Party, and it seemed that in this universe, women would not do evil, only men would.

When Queen Mother Alison tried to ask what exactly happened, her bedmate, Lord Criston, only replied to her, "I'm not sure."

When Alison tried to bypass Aemond and try to become the regent, only Grand Maester Orwell on the entire parliament table believed that the Queen Mother had taken on the responsibility of governing the country well when the former king was lying on his sickbed. Everyone else thought that the Queen Mother was a woman and it was a time of war.




Alison asks about Bendfoot Larris, the man who was once deeply obsessed with her feet, but Larris refuses outright.


What's dramatic is that after Laris refused, he threw the ball to Christon, the captain of the Royal Guard and prime minister. Of course, Christon also made it clear that Aemond was the first heir and he must be the regent.


He didn't even dare to touch Alison's eyes the whole time.

In this way, Aemond took the position of regent very smoothly.

Afterwards, Alison asked Christon again in private, but Christon's attitude remained unchanged, and he believed that "this is all for your own good."


I wonder what Alison will feel when she empathizes with Rainiera.


The first order of Aemond after becoming the regent was to close all the gates of King's Landing and not let any citizen leave without permission. Such a good idea would undoubtedly turn the whole city into a living hell.

Here, Sir Alfred once again spoke rudely to Rhaenyra, saying that the queen's female identity would not help her in formulating war strategies and executions, even though he himself had never experienced any war. This also led Rhaenyra to begin to believe that "war has always been a man's world", and the knowledge and training she received since childhood had nothing to do with war. She grew up pouring wine for her father, not holding a sword.




As for Sir Alfred, who always questioned herself, Rhaenyra decided to send him to Daemon and let him figure out Daemon's true intentions, whether he was gathering the army for Rhaenyra or for himself.

And Damon's situation is obviously even worse.

His mentality has changed from "husband of the king" to "calling himself His Majesty" to "allowing Rhaenyra to stand next to him."

He also has nightmares every day, and even dreams of having sex with his mother, just because he wants to hear his mother say that he is stronger than his brother. Putting aside the plot, Daemon's mother Alyssa Targaryen still looks a bit like Daenerys, the mother of dragons.





When it comes to mobilizing troops, Damon is getting worse and worse. In order to win back the Bracken family who are loyal to the Green Party, he rides on Korakshu to demonstrate to them. Unexpectedly, the Bracken family is quite tough and would rather be devoured by dragon flames than to side with the Blackwood family. Damon can only sit on the top of the hill and look at the sky depressedly.




Moments later, Damon hinted at a bad idea for the Blackwoods, which was to do some dirty work. After all, "there are some things the royal family cannot publicly participate in."


Soon, the Brackens' holy places of faith were destroyed, their fields were burned, women were raped, and even children were not spared. However, the Brackens were not stupid. The Blackwoods did all these things under the banner of the Black Party. The Riverlands is an ancient banner. We have been in this land for hundreds of years. Whether there are dragons or not, we will not bow down to tyrants. Therefore, Daemon's move not only failed to successfully recruit troops, but also ruined the reputation of the Black Party in the Riverlands.

What's even worse is whether Damon will take action against the Blackwood family in order to appease the Bracken family.

In short, only Rainier's behavior in this episode was remarkable. First, she listened to Messalia and took the mass line, trying to start a bottom-up revolution.

The second is to send Bella to persuade her grandfather Sea Snake to serve as the Queen's prime minister, which is also the only exciting point in this episode.

The sea serpent still complained about his wife's sacrifice, but Bella was very clear-headed. Rhaenys was not just your wife, she was a princess of the Targaryen family and the uncrowned king. She voluntarily flew to Raven's Roost to fight for her loved ones.

Moreover, Rhaenyra's death was worthy, bathed in dragon flames and crowned with honor. It was the same choice as her mother's, and it was also the ending of life she hoped for.

This made the sea snake look at the girl in front of him with admiration. He tried to pass Tide Head Island to Bella, but Bella resolutely refused.

Because it is blood and fire, Chaotou Island must pass it on to salt and sea.



The third idea seemed crazy and terrifying, which was to recruit dragon knights.

There are quite a few illegitimate children in the Targaryen family. They will become the so-called "dragon seeds" and tame those ownerless dragons. Of course, this process is cruel. Many people who do not have Targaryen blood also participated. In the end, four dragon knights were born. No one knows their true bloodline. Of course, these are all later stories.



The anxious JJ also took the initiative to fly to make a deal with the Frey family because they own the bridge of the Twins. But all the audience have to worry about him, because the Frey family is the family that betrayed the Stark family and planned the Red Wedding in "Game of Thrones".

And in the upcoming sixth episode, judging from the trailer, the recruitment of dragon knights will officially begin, and a riot will break out in King's Landing. Alison will also face Aemond directly. Haven't those childhood traumas been avenged yet?

Since it is a call for dragon knights, there should naturally be many dragons appearing. I have a feeling that the next episode will break out of the trough and climb to a small climax again.
