Joffrey’s death
As Game of Thrones fans well know, weddings can be a dicey affair, especially when guys named Joffrey are in the mix. But there’s no conspiracy in House of the Dragon’s version of this scenario; instead, it’s Ser Criston taking out his rage on Ser Joffrey (Solly McLeod), who’s just tried to bro down with him over the fact that he and Criston are the secret lovers of newlyweds Princess Rhaenyra and Ser Laenor Velaryon (John Macmillan). The camera lingers on Joffrey’s caved-in face, because this is Westeros and we are all ghouls.
