A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Episode 3 Ending Explained: What Is Egg's Real Name and Why Does It Matter?

  • On Feb. 1, Episode 3 ended with Egg revealing he is Aegon V, threatening Dunk during a puppet show confrontation. `He feels utterly betrayed.`
  • Faced with Comic-Con leaks, the creative team reframed the secret as a character attribute; Ira Parker planned Egg's lineage as a major reveal but accepted it might be spoiled publicly, while Ryan Condal argued it should come out earlier.
  • During the puppet show, Aerion attacks Tanselle and breaks her hand, Dunk knocks him down, then Aerion's men seize Dunk before being stopped, highlighting the immediate threat.
  • The twist propels the season into a new phase, affecting Dunk's fate and catapulting viewers into the back half of Season 1 with higher stakes in noble politics, actors say.
  • The episode nods to a prophecy that foreshadows the Summerhall tragedy where Aegon V's plan to hatch seven dragon eggs using wildfire caused a deadly fire.
