'House Of The Dragon': Larys Strong And That Odd Foot Scene Explained

'House Of The Dragon': Larys Strong And That Odd Foot Scene Explained
Description

Larys revealed to Alicent that morning-after tea was sent to Rhaenyra's quarters by Viserys -- the first of many secrets he'd share with the queen. Larys has served the queen since episode 5, which means he's been at her side for about 16 years in House of the Dragon canon.  He first acquainted himself with Alicent when she was alone in the Godswood contemplating Rhaenyra's rumored fling with Daemon.

Organisers say Mr Belfort will share his 'remarkable journey and entrepreneurial insights' and attendees will be able to 'discover how he successfully created a household name and embodied the entrepreneurial spirit from a young age'.

The film that shipped Margot Robbie to A-list fame is adapted from Mr Belfort's 2007 memoir of the same name and depicts his debaucherous lifestyle and wild rise to notoriety before his subsequent fall from grace that saw him jailed for nearly two years.

'If you are pulling air from outside, then you are pulling in all the pollutants and carbon monoxide from all the traffic. Studies show that recirculating your AC can cut down on the pollutants entering your vehicle by 20 per cent when stuck in traffic'.

We can't confirm until next week, but it looks an awful lot like Larys' handiwork. Later in the episode, when Erryk is escorting Rhaenys out of the Red Keep, we see a servant has been hanged, and what appears to be Mysaria's headquarters has been lit aflame.

Alicent's response to Larys -- to putting her feet on the table, taking her stockings off and then finally placing her feet in full view and turning away -- indicates this definitely isn't the first transaction like this.

They added if your car has been 'baking in the sun'  its better to roll the windows down and turn recirculate off for the first minute or so to get rid of the super hot air inside the car before turning the recirculate on.

Who is Larys Strong anyway? Larys Strong, also known as "the Clubfoot," is the son of Lyonel Strong, who briefly served as Hand of the king after King Viserys sacked Otto Hightower. You'll also remember Larys' brother, Harwin Strong. Harwin was a City Watch guard, and the real father of Jacaerys and Lucerys Targaryen, the sons Rhaenyra Targaryen claimed to have had with Laenor Velaryon.

Larys then explains that Alicent's servant is one of the spies and indicates he could take out the spymaster if the queen wishes it. To get it out of him, Alicent has to peel her stockings off and lay her bare feet on the table. Alicent seems all too aware of what this means.

It has to do with Larys Strong, who, in discomforting fashion, was revealed to have a nasty foot fetish. Not nasty like people-who-like-feet-are-weird nasty. If you saw episode 9 and are wondering what you hell you just watched, I'm here to tell you that it was, unfortunately, what you thought it was. 

Larys reveals the existence of the spies and says Alicent's father, Otto Hightower, is aware of them. But that information comes at a price. While Alicent speaks with Larys, she takes her shoes off and places her stocking-adorned feet on the table between them. He has more information, but stops himself from spilling it.

What did Larys do in episode 9? He did exactly that in episode 9, making Alicent aware of the ring of spies that "White Worm" Mysaria has inside the Red Keep. For much of House of the Dragon's first season, he's kept her abreast of happenings, opportunities and liabilities. Larys is Queen Alicent's unofficial master of whisperers.

Larys, aligning himself firmly in team Hightower, in episode 6, Online Phonics 6th Grade Teacher arranged for both his father and brother to be killed on their return to Harrenhal. The following episode, we learn Larys has since been named Lord of Harrenhal.

One scene stuck out, though, and not necessarily in a good way. It's clever, allowed Queen Alicent Hightower to shine like never before, and built anticipation for next week's big finale. House of the Dragon's ninth episode, called The Green Council, is among the show's best yet.
