Lord Corlys’ Genius Plan: Marry Off His 12-Year-Old Daughter
So, Queen Aemma sadly passed away, and King Viserys needed a new queen. Enter Lord Corlys Velaryon, who thought, "Hey, let’s marry my 12-year-old daughter to the king!" Sure, it sounded great on paper (money and army power!), but dude, 12?! Viserys was not having it and picked someone way older instead. Still, the whole idea had viewers raising eyebrows like, seriously?
Daemon vs. Criston: The Jousting Match That Looked Like a Horror Movie
We all know the show's no stranger to violence, but this jousting match? Yikes. Daemon and Criston battle it out in a mess of broken bones, crushed skulls, and just relentless chaos. Some people had to look away and even felt queasy. But the actor playing Criston? He thought it was pretty awesome to get to beat up Matt Smith’s character. Talk about weirdly fun!
Prince Jaehaerys’ Brutal Goodbye
Here’s one that left us heartbroken and a bit creeped out. Little Prince Jaehaerys, just six years old, meets a brutal end when assassins sneak into his bedroom. The assault was meant for someone else, but hey, wrong kid! This was a serious ‘ouch’ moment in the Targaryen family drama and definitely not for the faint-hearted.
Queen Aemma’s Wildly Graphic Labor Scene
Childbirth on TV can be intense, but this scene was on another level. Queen Aemma’s labor was so intense and heartbreaking that King Viserys had to make a gut-wrenching call - save the baby or the queen. Spoiler: it didn’t end well, and the whole thing was pretty heavy and graphic, leaving viewers shook.
Daemon’s Cringe-Worthy Intimate Scenes (Yep, Those Too)
Ah, Daemon Targaryen. Not just a rogue prince but also the star of some of the show's most awkward and disturbing scenes. Season 1 had him struggling to impress his mistress - and people definitely noticed! Then in Season 2, there’s that nightmare-ish dream scene involving his mother that left everyone squirming. Definitely not your average romance moments.
House of the Dragon is currently streaming on HBO Max if you dare to watch!
