Ned Stark did not underperform in the least seeing where his kids all ended up.

When Jace was toasting to Aegon and Aemond, he should've said "As men, I hope we can see eye to eye".
I appreciate that Stannis was doing the right thing, and his "that'll do pig" head nod when Jon took off Janos Slynt's head, but his time as King could have been written as King Stannis: A series of unfortunate events"canadiaggie said:

Princess Rhaenys is one of my favorite minor characters. She is amazingly shrewd. Last week, she was ticked at her husband for keeping one of the Strong-boys are heir to Driftmark (and he replied with the best line so far "history doesn't remember blood, it remembers names" ) and this week she's pulling a quick-change on betrothals.

Except it seems 20 years seems to have been undone by his last words(I am guessing those are his last heard words).The Porkchop Express said:
Princess Rhaenys was the big winner of the throne room scene. Didn't have to grovel, secured her granddaughter's legacy, and got rid of her biggest rival without lifting a finger.I find her the most likable character by a long stretch.
Q: #AskFabien What was it like shooting with the kids during the courtyard scene?!? ✨

Wow. The crown falling off and Daemon picking it up for his brother being an accident. Very well played, glad they kept it in.

I was hoping after his speech that they'd thank him for his compliment on their strength, and then compliment Aemond that he's always had an eye for strength. Maybe even go as far that the brothers would love to trade their favorite dagger for his discerning eye.Brian Earl Spilner said:

Elaborate?
So the end justifies the means?Brian Earl Spilner said:
There's obvious things he could've handled better, but in the end there was a Stark on the Iron Throne and another in the North, is my point.

It's not the number of names to remember, it's the names themselves. Would I like it if their names were Sally, Carol, and Tiffany? Probably not, but it would be easier.Ol Jock 99 said:
In one scene, we have Rhaenyra, Rhaenys, and Rhaena all talking.
