There was a lot said between Rhaenys and Alicent in the last episode of HouseOfTheDragon. We break down their talk about being a woman in Westeros.
Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Episodes 1-9 of House of the Dragon.For those whose loyalty have remained on the side of the Greens, House of the Dragon’s penultimate episode of the season seems to have made it a bit difficult to stay there.

Looking rather surprised, Rhaenys replies: “I little thought to hear those words from you.” Within a few minutes, we see Alicent hit Rhaenys with a hook, line, and sinker, but it all falls short when she utters the words: “We do not rule, but we may guide the men that do.
As Rhaenys observes, Alicent holds no power apart from what is willingly given to her by the men who actually wield it. Even if Alicent never misconstrued Viserys’ final words, episode 9 reveals the coup would have happened regardless. Leaving Alicent, again, another pawn in the games with only the faintest illusion of agency. In reality, Alicent’s mistake was just a happy accident for Otto’s existing plans.
