That shot of Vhagar's shadow overtaking Luke and his dragon was incredible as well.
It's interesting that they framed the murders as Vhagar ignoring Aemond's orders. It's my understanding that Aemond in the books was a bloodthirsty villain. This painted him more like a douchey 18 year old ****ing with his nephew.
Regardless, he knows what he did was a huge **** up. He kicked off the war and I think he will own it when he returns to King's Landing.
What I love is that the books, overall, are third hand accounts.
Really, the show is setting the canon - as long as GRRM is involved like he is.
