How art thou Bros? It is the conclusion of our recap of episode 2 of HoTD. We have a strange scene with Aemond at a brothel and it seems he's finding motherly comfort away from his actual mom (probably because Alicent is incapable of doing so). Hugh the blacksmith makes another appearance alluding to the state of the kingdom as well as a future bigger role on the show. Alyn and Addam of Hull have a similar appearance potentially setting up more involvement in some way shape or form in the future. Rhaenyra meets with Mysaria the 'White Worm' to try and uncover her part in the slaying of Jahearys. She admits to giving Daemon names, but also lets Rhaenyra know that she no longer cares about the game, status or pretty much anything. Rhaenyra denies her freedom (for now) as she continues to navigate post Jah death. Juxtaposed to this we see rash action from Aegon as he hangs every rat catcher that works at the keep in order to root out the one that wronged him. Instead of being pragmatic (i.e. Rhaenyra) he acts out of emotion. When Otto questions him he replaces him as hand of the king with dumb dumb Criston Cole... Rhaenyra lets Mysaria leave but on her way out she spots Arryk heading into kill Rhaenyra. An EPIC (and confusing) twin fight ensues as the twins battle with swords. The state of everything continues to deteriorate as the new regimes struggle with their newfound roles and learn the hard way that their actions have dire consequences.
