Criston Cole’s group is ambushed and killed very early in the episode. At first, they defeat some soldiers only to realize they are surrounded by main Tully army. Cole demands a duel, but Black Aly shoots him before he can finish. There is no line about people not singing songs about him. Cole’s death received an enormous cheer from the audience, more like the reaction to a boxing match than a television screening.

Rhaenyra is completely finished with Alicent after Alicent’s attempted escape fails. Alicent desperately pleads with Rhaenyra not to imprison her and Helaena, but Rhaenyra refuses. When Rhaenyra begins walking away, Alicent grabs her arm. The Queensguard immediately order Alicent to unhand her, and Rhaenyra gives her an icy look.

Rhaenyra hears petitions from the smallfolk in the throne room. She becomes overwhelmed by everyone arguing their cases and storms out after cutting her finger on the Iron Throne.

Aegon appears in only one scene. The body of the man he killed in the previous episode is being buried. In a comedic moment, Aegon asks Tyland whether he agrees with Larys that Aegon is a horrible person. Tyland stutters and avoids answering, disappointing Aegon. They then agree to abandon everything and flee to Essos.

Daeron reunites with Gwayne and asks whether Gwayne saw their mother in King’s Landing. He also tells Gwayne that he resents being left with Ormund, because he hates the person he becomes when he is around him. Gwayne appears exhausted and resigned. Daeron asks him not to leave again.

Ormund and Gwayne openly hate each other. Ormund repeatedly makes pointed remarks implying that Gwayne is gay.

Gwayne identifies and defeats the assassins targeting him and Daeron. Having recently returned from active service in the field, Gwayne recognizes several supposed diplomats as assassins and proceeds to beat them. He also explains that he knows they are not genuine Baratheons because the real Baratheon is more attractive.

Ormund is portrayed as physically sensitive and inexperienced with violence. He vomits when blood is first spilled. Because of his extremely weak sense of smell, he is apparently unable to distinguish the approaching assassins from ordinary diplomats.

Rhaenyra and Daemon argue about how to deal with Ormund. Rhaenyra apparently sends men posing as Baratheons to Tumbleton in an attempt to assassinate Ormund. Gwayne recognizes that they are impostors and prevents the assassination.

Rhaenyra orders Alicent to kill Aemond. Alicent firmly refuses at first, but eventually realizes that Rhaenyra is not actually giving her a choice.

Rhaena returns to the Eyrie. Lady Jeyne Arryn physically slaps her for daring to abandon her exile.

Daemon kills one of the Green spies involved in the murder of the Gold Cloaks. He also insults Ulf again.

Daemon is close to losing control after the deaths of the Gold Cloaks. He begins to understand how extensive Ormund’s scheme is and how difficult it will be to identify and remove everyone involved. He simply crashes out.

Helaena appears to be approaching a complete psychological collapse. She is shown weaving fabric depicting dead women lying in pools of blood. She repeatedly pricks or stabs her fingers with the weaving needles while working.

Alicent warns Rhaenyra that Helaena cannot endure the increased security measures. This seemingly establishes Helaena’s eventual death as partly Rhaenyra’s fault, at least from the Greens’ perspective. Alicent explicitly warns that Helaena will not be able to cope with the confinement and excessive security imposed upon her.

Baela and Alyn make out. (LMAO)

Alys Rivers has gained almost complete control over Aemond. Aemond attempts to leave Harrenhal, but a stable boy sees him. Before the boy can say anything, Alys kills him to prevent Aemond’s location from being revealed. Aemond initially tries to resist her influence, but visibly begins falling for her after she kills to protect him.

Alys persuades Aemond to remain by offering him a future and a dynasty. She describes a life in which she and Aemond have several princely children together, then reveals a chest containing ancient dragon eggs. This apparently destroys what remains of Aemond’s resistance, and the two kiss.

Corlys is ambushed in the woods. At the end of the episode, Jon Roxton attacks him and chokes him unconscious.
