King’s Landing might have an unexpected visitor in House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 3
A surprise visitor might take King’s Landing by storm.
Fans are busy theorizing and suspecting what might happen in House of the Dragon season 2 episode 3. The previous episode featured incredible twists and turns, leaving both factions at a certain loss. Otto Hightower is not the Hand of the King any longer whereas Daemon left Dragonstone too.
Till now, Rhaenyra has been extremely wary of moving out of her home base which is Dragonstone. She is keeping her people close and surveilling King’s Landing to keep track of the Greens’ movement. However, things seem to change in the upcoming episode of House of the Dragon season 2.

Some snippets from the latest promo suggest Rhaenyra ventures into the wild, wild Westeros. And not just any territory, she goes into the belly of the beast as Rhaenyra infiltrates King’s Landing dressed as a Septa. Moreover, this seems to be where she meets Alicent Hightower and the two reunite after a prolonged separation.

A tweet shows Alicent grabbing someone’s hands and fans are convinced that they’re Emma D’Arcy’s hands.
The hand closely resembles Emma D’arcy’s hands and the sleeve of the hand holding Rhaenyra’s knife matches with the new Septa costumes. Alicent’s dress and rings match her appearance in the poster.

The reason behind Rhaenyra’s visit to King’s Landing remains a mystery.
Fans call her Septa Rhaenyra
This possible theory has left social media ablaze. Fans are excited to see Rhaenyra in this new avatar. Moreover, they want to know why she sets foot in King’s Landing after so long. Given she sneaks into the city dressed as a Septa, fans are even calling her Septa Rhaenyra now.

House of the Dragon season 2 episode 3 premieres on HBO Max on July 1, 2024.
A hint at Rhaenyra meeting Alicent in episode 3
House of the Dragon season 2 review by The Hollywood Reporter further adds fuel to the speculation fire. The review states, “A verbal clash between enemies is positioned as the mic-drop closer of episode three, and despite the fact that not a single drop of blood is shed, it really is as tense and thrilling as any sword fight could’ve been.”
Fans are convinced that the publication is talking about Rhaenyra and Alicent here. All the subtle hints suggest Rhaenyra’s secret visit to King’s Landing will end with her coming face to face with her once best friend Alicent.
*spoiler warning*
Rhaenyra and Alicent will get into a heated argument in the next episode. Alicent has convinced herself that Viserys wanted Aegon as his heir, so Rhaenyra shares tsoiaf with her. Alicent doesn’t believe her at first, but it plants the seed of doubt in her. pic.twitter.com/RPixwlEf1S

Greens’ claim to power has been built on the belief that Viserys changed his mind about the ascension to the Iron Throne on his deathbed. Some fans have been speculating that this scene shows Rhaenyra explains the truth behind Aegon’s dream to Alicent. We’ll have to see how Alicent reacts to it.
Moreover, the Greens will not give up power so easily. House of the Dragon season 2 episode 3 is going to be an epic chapter in the thrilling narrative.
