House of the Dragon reminds us that those who shirk honor/power/glory often have the burden thrust upon them. Both Rhaenyra Targaryen's & Alicent Hightower's collective loss and abandonment run parallel. Aemond Targaryen is hot on Daemon Targaryen's (coat) t(r)ails. We're suspicious of both Daemon & Rhaenyra recent blessings.

Formerly titled Assassination Run, Eric Kripke has finally found his line after doing the Mexican Hat(e) Dance on it for most of Season 4; KUDOS, however: pulling their punches resulted in a worthy close to The Boys' 4th season! Billy Butcher has gone full T-800. More than we imagined, Ryan Butcher may be far more powerful than Homelander. We'll probably see you again to cover Gen-V as we transition into the New World Order before Season 5.

Rhaenyra Targaryen further embraces her inner Jaeharys The Conciliator while Daemon Targaryen embraces his inner Aegon The Conqueror. What do Aemond Targaryen, Aegon Targaryen, and Viserys Targaryen now have in common? Both Rhaenyra & Alicent Hightower learn different lessons at their respective small councils.

Bro. BRO! Plot-lines are accelerating on this hot Christmas special! Kimiko reunites with Frenchie, which is "the bees knees". Ryan Butcher does the right thing on live television. We've got another shapeshifter, but it's not Hughie Campbell's mom!

It's easy to forget how the Game Of Thrones universe works: the characters you don't want to die end up dead (and the ones you thought were dead end up not dead). All the while, we explore the schism in Daemon Targaryen's psyche and what might become of both #TeamGreen & #TeamBlack as a result of this episode.

In a twist of irony, this episode was so gross it turned us all a little conservative! Ashley Barrett is here to stay, putting on quite the show in Tek-Knight's Tek-Cave. Homelander's imposter syndrome and the return of breastmilk kryptonite. Speaking of Mothers Milk, has M.M. been suppressing his powers this entire time?

A noteworthy amount of movement in the storyline and mirroring going on between #TeamBlack & #TeamGreen. Is Helaena Targaryen's dreamer/seer gift/curse like Bran Stark's, only on crack? Might Rhaenyra Targaryen's meeting with Alicent Hightower avert worse tragedy and ultimately yield The Prince That Was Promised?

Joe Kessler plays the diabolical devil on Billy Butcher's shoulder. Victoria Neuman surprises everyone. Frenchie wins the best line award, this episode, despite his guilt-ridden conscience. Homelander is outpacing Billy at Father-of-the-year to Ryan, at the moment.

What does love look like in different cultures/houses? Why do we worship royalty/celebrity? Alicent Hightower escapes her reality by way of Ser Criston Cole, defying Otto Hightower's authority and denying her children love: so much so, Aemond Targaryen seeks it in the arms of a brothel madame (who looks strikingly familiar to her).
