Why Aegon's House of the Dragon Homelander moment is so important
Okay, maybe crossover is a bit strong but we've definitely seen those moves somewhere before.
Thankfully for us, the flapping, clapping sound is interrupted by Alicent's arrival. Unlike us, she is not greatly perturbed by what she sees, because there are bigger issues at hand, so to speak. Aegon, by comparison, has no such desire. So how then does he get from indifference to a bloodthirsty willingness to cut his half-sister down?In an ironic twist of fate she adopts the same role in her son's life that her father Otto Hightower played in hers. She begins manipulating Aegon for her own intent and that becomes clear in this scene.
Alicent however, isn't just acting out of fear for her children's lives now. At least that isn't the only reason she is so hellbent on getting in Rhaenyra's way. If her children were the focus she would have accepted Rhaenyra's proposal to betroth her son to Alicent's daughter, putting an end to any in-house fighting with a little incest.
Alicent's old wound refuses to heal and is ripped open wider and wider by fact that she is almost certain that Rhaenyra's children are not her husband Laenor's but are instead the products of more sexual immorality, this time from a relationship with Harwin Strong .
