Summary House of the Dragon season 2, episode 3 makes a big change to the book with Alicent Hightower and Rhaenyra Targaryen's story, but it's an important one. Alicent and Rhaenyra reunited for the first time since House of the Dragon season 1, episode 8. When they had last seen one another, the former had declared the latter would make a fine queen; now they are opposing sides of a civil war that will become known as the Dance of the Dragons.
Alicent & Rhaenyra's King's Landing Meeting Doesn't Happen In Fire & Blood - But HOTD Needed It House Of The Dragon Had To Get Alicent & Rhaenyra Back Together Close In Fire & Blood, both Rhaenyra and Alicent are more passive participants at this point in the Dance of the Dragons, and Rhaenyra does not leave Dragonstone until she and Daemon make their move for King's Landing .
This was also vital for Rhaenyra's arc moving forward, and rewards her passivity so far. House of the Dragon season 1's ending may have set up her vengeance for Lucerys Velaryon's death, but season 2 changed that. When she spoke the words "I want Aemond Targaryen," giving in to her rage, an innocent child had his head cut off. She understands the pain of losing a child, and can't take that lightly. She had to know, beyond any doubt, that there was no turning back.
