An exciting TV episode deserves an exciting analysis, and, with enormous help from returning guest Akash, The Silent Sisters certainly deliver in this two-part episode covering House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 2 "Rhaenyra the Cruel". We explore the episode through an in-depth summary that led to many unplanned discussions before looking at Alicent and Otto's relationship, the Hightower family emotions (or lack there of), and the perception of power.
