SPOILER ALERT: This story contains major spoilers from the Season 2 premiere of HBO’s “House of the Dragon.” After closing Season 1 with the swift and shocking death of a child — Rhaenyra Targaryen’s (Emma D’Arcy) son Lucerys Velaryon — “House of the Dragon” opened its second with a series of grief-driven choices and insidious plans that led to the most gruesome murder of another child: Jaehaerys Targaryen, the grandson of Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke).
The toddler Jaehaerys, the son of King Aegon II (Tom Glynn-Carney) and Queen Helaena (Phia Saban), is killed in his bed by two men nicknamed “Blood and Cheese,” one a hulking former member of the City Watch and the other the royal rat catcher.
The pair sneak into the palace under commission from Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) to find and kill Aemond Targareyn (Ewan Mitchell) in order to get the revenge Rhaenyra wants for Aemond’s role in Luke’s death.
Jaehaerys is killed instead when Blood and Cheese cannot find Aemond, and happen upon Queen Helaena and her two sleeping twins — a boy and a girl — and demand to know which one is the male, because they believe that will satisfy the “son for a son” portion of the death Daemon requested.
