House Of The Dragon 3.06: Criston Cole Wanted A Song

Mary and Blake discuss House Of The Dragon Season 3, Episode 6: "Faceless Men." In this episode, we chat about why Criston Cole's sudden death is the perfect end to his story, what the Iron Throne cutting Rhaenyra says about her reign, and why Alys Rivers may be offering Aemond a replacement for the identity he built around Vhagar. We also discuss the tenderness between Gwayne and Daeron, Alicent being ordered to kill her own son, Aegon accepting that he may be a terrible man, Hugh returning to Kat too late, Corlys' uncertain fate, and why the Baela and Alyn kiss did not feel fully earned. Plus, Mary gives the episode a perfect five flames, Blake examines the many meanings behind "Faceless Men," and we somehow end up talking about dragon eggs, wyverns, tetanus shots, handkerchiefs, Blue Takis, and the proper way to drive over a speed bump. Criston Cole wanted a song. History shot him in the face. Learn more and find our complete House Of The Dragon coverage at MaryAndBlake.com.
