00:00Welcome back everyone.
00:07It is Amelia.
00:08I hope you are fine.
00:09I think it's particularly important and telling that Damon at this point sees a younger Rhaenyra
00:15at the moment when his marriage has hit a new low where he's feeling angry and hurt
00:20and his wife says he is pathetic.
00:22It's his idealized form of the woman he loves that comes to him.
00:26This isn't the Rhaenyra who would call him pathetic.
00:29It's the version of the character over whom he had some element of control.
00:33Like he did the night he took her to a brothel.
00:35It's the Rhaenyra who is headstrong and rebellious in the way he liked, the way that made him
00:40feel good about himself, and the way that he used to get back a bit at vice eyes because
00:45so much of Damon's story is rooted in his relationship with his brother.
00:49It's the Rhaenyra he wants back.
00:51And then comes the cruel twist as she says she's always cleaning up after him.
00:56Even she is condemning his actions.
00:58It shows just how misguided Damon has been and, perhaps, is the closest we will get to
01:03confirmation he did order Jehri's death, given she's suing his head back on.
01:08Damon is not someone who will consciously open up too much or process emotional pain
01:13or regret well, but this forces him to do that.
01:16In an interview with Screen Rant's Thetiana Hullender, when asked if this Rhaenyra appeared
01:21because she had looked up to Damon, director Geeta Vasanth Patel agreed.
01:25She explained the decision to bring Alcock back in House of the Dragon.
01:29Alcock's return very much suggests there is an open door in terms of characters returning.
01:34Certainly, it would not be a surprise to see her again, at least for as long as Damon and
01:40Ali's reverse are at Harrenhal together.
01:42Whether others will be back is another matter.
01:45Casting announcements and trailers suggested Cian Brooks' Emma Arryn will return in House
01:50of the Dragon season 2, but that's to be confirmed.
01:53Vysai's Paddy Considine would make a lot of sense though might be harder to have kept
01:58secret.
01:59Lena, Nanna Blondel could be another option.
02:02Damon's visions open up multiple possibilities, and so long as they're rooted in his character
02:07arc like Alcock's, I look forward to seeing what happens next as House of the Dragon season
02:132 continues.
