Hank and Mel review the penultimate episode of House of the Dragon season 2 titled: The Red Sowing. Rhaenyra tracks down Addam and Seasmoke and after a standoff he swears fealty to the Queen. Larys has Grand Maester Orwyle accelerate Aegon’s recovery in order to get him back on the throne as quick as possible. Rhaenyra sends word to King’s Landing, via Alyn and Elinda, that she is looking for Targaryen dragonseeds. After the death of Grover Tully, Oscar Tully returns to Daemon with an offer to help as long as Willem Blackwood is brought to justice. Jacaerys is upset about the illegitimate children of Valyrian blood being offered dragons because he thinks it could threaten his succession. This is in stark contrast to the source material. Corlys is open with Addam about his lineage (although he doesn’t come out and say it). The dragon keepers revolt when they find out about Rhaenyra’s plan. Vermithor kills most of the dragonseeds until he gets to Hugh Hammer. Ulf is claimed by Silverwing then flies over King’s Landing. Aemond gets on Vhagar and is in hot pursuit until he sees Rhaenyra with Syrax, Vermithor, and Silverwing. This episode had some great special effects mixed with some puzzling dialogue.
