House of the Dragon - Season 1 Episode 8 Breakdown

House of the Dragon episode 8, The Lord of the Tides did not disappoint. In this episode surrounding a smaller, but still important succession, we had two deaths AND we see Otto Hightower laugh, all in one episode. Get you a show who can do both. Paddy Consodine will forever be a thrones universe GOAT after this season and his portrayal of Viserys. Unfortunately, his efforts to unite the family at the Last Supper were all undone by a little too much milk of the poppy. WAR IS AFOOT. On to the penultimate!
