People Are Loving The Fact That Daemon Targaryen Is A Hot, Chaotic Mess

Now that the dust has settled on House of the Dragon Episode 4, “King of the Narrow Sea,” let’s take a moment to talk about everyone’s favorite uncle, Daemon Targaryen.

HBO

After all the royal court niceties, Daemon then took his beloved niece Rhaenyra out for some debaucherous fun in Flea Bottom. They ended up at a pleasure house, and, well, we all know what happened there. (Yikes.)

HBO

Things got hot and heavy between them, but for whatever personal turmoil–inspired reason, Daemon left Rhaenyra before things went “too far.”

HBO

Later, Otto Hightower, being the self-interested Hand of the King that he is, outted Daemon and Rhaenyra to Viserys in a way that can only be described as painfully awkward.

HBO

Upset, Viserys then confronted both Rhaenyra and Daemon about what happened.

HBO

(BTW, although Viserys refers to Rhenyra as a “girl” in this scene, it is worth noting that Rhaenyra is an adult by this point in the show, around 19 or 20 years old…in case you were wondering.)

And not only did very hungover Daemon embrace what happened, but he straight-up DOUBLED DOWN on his affections for Rhaenyra.

HBO

Viserys did not take well to Daemon’s proposal — assuming Daemon really just wants the throne — and ordered his little brother back to the Vale.

HBO

Suffice to say, all of Daemon’s TRULY CHAOTIC actions throughout this episode had fans screaming and making A+++ jokes about all the drama:
