House of the Dragon ReWatch - S1E2 - The Rogue Prince
Six months later, Daemon has illegally occupied Castle Dragonstone. Prince-Admiral Craghas Drahar, known as the Crabfeeder, menaces the Stepstones archipelago at the Essos Triarchy's behest. The Small Council dismisses Rhaenyra's suggestion to show force and instead relegate her to appointing a new Kingsguard knight. Ignoring others' advice, she chooses Ser Criston, the only knight with actual battle experience. Ser Otto sends his teen-aged daughter, Lady Alicent, to console the grieving king; she advises Viserys to discuss his kingly duty to remarry with Rhaenyra. Lord Corlys and his wife, Princess Rhaenys, propose that Viserys unite their Valyrian houses by marrying their twelve-year-old daughter, Laena. Meanwhile, the Small Council learns that Daemon, proclaiming himself the true heir, stole a dragon egg and intends to marry his mistress, Mysaria, as a secondary spouse. Otto and a small detachment sail to Dragonstone to retrieve the egg. Rhaenyra follows on her dragon, Syrax, and forces Daemon to renounce his false claims and return the egg. Viserys announces his intention to wed Alicent, angering Corlys, who proposes an alliance to Daemon.

House of the Dragon ReWatch - S1E1 - Heirs of the Dragon
With both his sons dead, old King Jaehaerys I Targaryen convenes a Great Council to choose an heir. The Westerosi lords select Jaehaerys' eldest grandson, Prince Viserys, over Princess Rhaenys, the eldest grandchild. Nine years into his reign, King Viserys organizes a tournament to celebrate Queen Aemma Arryn's pregnancy, confident she is carrying his long-awaited male heir. The Small Council disregards Master of Ships Lord Corlys Velaryon's warning that the Triarchy, an alliance of Essos' Free Cities, threatens to cripple Westerosi shipping lanes. Hand of the King, Ser Otto Hightower, criticizes Viserys's brother and heir, Prince Daemon, for his brutality as the City Watch commander. At the tournament, the young, handsome Ser Criston Cole, a common-born knight, outcompetes Daemon. Meanwhile, Viserys sacrifices Aemma in childbirth, performing a C-section. Their newborn son, Baelon, dies shortly after. Viserys refuses the council's pleas to appoint a new heir until Otto reveals that Daemon mockingly styled Baelon as, "The Heir for a Day." Outraged, Viserys banishes Daemon from King's Landing and appoints his only living child, Princess Rhaenyra, heir to the Iron Throne, revealing to her Aegon the Conqueror's dream that inspired him to unify Westeros.

Customer Reviews
Better when you talk about the books
I love the show and all the conversations you guys have, but PLEASE stop talking about the prospective Snow show…it’s damaged goods and I’m actually surprised you guys even entertain the idea of such garbage fan fiction being made to further damage asoiaf lore. Just let GoT die and talk about the books, and shows that are actually going to exist
Addictive
Been listening off and on for a while! Really love the research and effort you guys put into this
I absolutely love this, you guys are great!
I actually found you guys through swish, and Flick, when Mr. E. Kirk was subbing for Tiffany while she was doing her maternity leave. And I loved you on swish also. I just started listening and I’m already obsessed, however, I have not read the books I’ve only seen the shows and I’ve watched them three times from the beginning until the end. And I’m literally cracking up at how wrong all of you are about how the show turns out, lol. Every time when you all speculate on who’s going live or die…I’m like, wrong! Nope! 😂 But anyway, I am super stoked to finally get to go through the books with you guys, and keep up the great work!
