The latest episode continues showing how House of The Dragon has come fallen into chaos after the death of King Viserys (Paddy Considine). Otto Hightower, Viserys’s former close friend and Hand of The King, doesn’t waste time in expressing his grief; he has other matters at hand to worry about, such as making plans to kill Rhaenyra (Emma D’arcy), daughter of Viserys, who is not the heir to the throne. He is also busy imprisoning everyone who won’t swear fealty.
The episode further shows Ser Criston as a schemer, revealing his murderous side as he eliminates Lord Beesbury in the council. Beesbury expresses his spluttering displeasure as he is appalled at the plans to seize the throne.
Interestingly, the two key characters, Rhaenyra and Daemon, are shown suspiciously absent in episode 9. Moving forward, the episode shows Alicent Hightower trying to locate her depraved son Aegon to make him the king while attempting to save her former best friend from being butchered by her father.
