Lmao. I ducked that up. Why would the show make him look so different and then just show him for 1.5 seconds?
Interesting question. There were so many layers to that scene…

Then my read was quite wrong. I’m not being revisionist on what she asked of her father, just read that wrong.
Luke was always a sniveling little twerp, imho. And Aemon, as “Joffry”-esque as he has been portrayed, is actually a quite interesting character.
I think if the guy wants to disappear into the world he absolutely has to take away those distinctive locks.
Yeah. But he’s been a sissy twink all this time, now for 1.5 seconds in the dark of pre-dawn, he looks like Medieval Mike Tyson.
I had Aemond pegged wrong. Really thought “heres a kid no one will expect anything from and he will do great things”.
How did you see that scene? I simplified it for humor’s sake, of course, but that was kinda how I saw it. She was willing to take on the task her father asked of her, but in exchange, she needed him to stop leaving her out to dry as he basically had her whole life. She was crying to her daddy that she needed support. He heard her, so he made the appearance in court to make it crystal clear who his heir was to be (showing her unquestioned support). This show of support was from a father more so than from a king. And Daemon’s actions were equally from a brother as they were from a husband.
I am actually surprised that I took the scene for such granted. It never occurred to me that it was a confusing scene, but your pointing it out makes it obvious it could have been missed.
I think the casting made it clear he would be a power-player. The actor who plays Egmond is very non-descript. Shortish with no discerning facial features. No one would be able to pick him out of a lineup. The actor who plays Aemon is VERY distinctive. Tall, lanky, perfect evil snarl (and the prop of an eye patch doesn’t hurt). Similar to the original Daario. The original was very distinctive (in a very uncomfortable way, imho) while the recast actor was a complete cookie cutter actor who could not stand out in an open field.
I saw no issue. I saw her in the right.
Who is Egmond?
Maybe I fudged the names (who can blame me with this show, amiright?)
He shaved his head, to look like Vin Diesel.
He’s gayer than Sunday, but he’s a straight up badass too.
Oh trust me….youisright. These names.
