Rhaenyra and Laenor (or, ahem, Harwin), meanwhile, had three sons: Jacaerys, Lucerys, and Joffrey (the last born literally at the beginning of this episode). Daemon has married Laenor’s sister Laena — in a match that appears to contain genuine love on both sides — and the two have twins, Baela and Rhaena. When the episode opens, Laena is pregnant with a third child, but unfortunately, neither of them survives the birth. Later, there’s a quiet but meaningful moment between Viserys and Rhaenyra when he tells her, “I do hope the labor was easy.”
The idea that Alicent is now his is underlined by Larys as he carefully and deliberately plucks and holds the flower that he compared her to in the previous episode.
