House of the Dragon S3E3 Review: SPOILER ALERT
Rhaenyra has King’s Landing… but she might also be losing her mind.
This week on Thumb War, we break down House of the Dragon Season 3 Episode 3, aka what Rachel calls Rhaenyra’s Unraveling. The Red Keep is haunted, the music is screaming, everyone is starving, Corlys is furious, Daemon wants to burn the world down, and Rhaenyra decides the best way to win over the nobles is to serve them a beautiful feast of rats.
Rachel loved the episode’s descent into Targaryen madness. Jason thinks the show keeps cutting away from the exact moments we need to see — especially when dragons are involved.
We get into the Ormund Hightower standoff, Alicent and Rhaenyra’s weird little soul connection, whether Team Black is falling apart, and why someone needs to make a Downton Abbey-style House of the Dragon episode set entirely in the Red Keep kitchen.
Full spoiler recap is up now.
