HBO’s House of the Dragon tossed out another jam-packed episode, and the final reveals outweighed the rest of this week’s developments. Of course, it’s not too surprising that a Mysaria/Rhaenyra liplock nabbed much attention, but god only knows how long that tryst will last. In contrast, a lifelong bond has been forged by the more enduring love story of this episode. That would be Seasmoke’s infatuation with Addam of Hull, who he claimed as rider.

Seasmoke really was lonely! He had long gone without a rider since the “death” of Laenor Velaryon, and Rhaenyra tried to fix this unclaimed beast up with a dragonseed, Ser Steffon Darklyn, which did not go over well:

He then flagged down a different dragonseed, Addam of Hull, who just so happens to be the bastard half-brother of Laenor. From the looks of HBO’s preview for the next episode, Rhaenyra is not yet aware of this connection, but she had better embrace it. Addam of Hull didn’t even have to bother with a “dohaeris” because Seasmoke made that call. And once Addam realized what was happening — and what a fantastic performance from Clinton Liberty — that realization led to the start of a beautiful relationship. Also, Seasmoke has “a type” for sure:
