House of the Dragon episode 5 is almost here, and you can bet that House Targaryen will be arguing about who should sit on the Iron Throne next.
We’re almost halfway through House of the Dragon’s first season, with 10 episodes planned, and there’s still a lot to be decided in the Seven Kingdoms (not to mention the fact that House of the Dragon season 2 has already been confirmed).
In addition, there will be a significant time jump that will propel the story forward into the adult years of Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen (Emma D’Arcy, Milly Alcock) and Lady Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke, Emily Carey).

Predictions
There will be a time jump very soon, which will most likely change a few things. But Rhaenyra’s marriage to Laenor is bound to set a few things in motion. Will the upcoming episodes be completely chaotic? That’s what I’d say. Here are a few predictions for what might happen:
The next episode will feature a time jump, which means that several characters, including Rhaenyra and Alicent, will be recast.
Alicent and Criston will form an unbreakable alliance. Will they eventually turn against Rhaenyra?
Rhaenyra and Laenor’s marriage will continue to be a farce, and they will sleep with different people.
Viserys will still be alive, but he will become weaker throughout the episode. Is his character’s demise imminent?
Daemon will gradually form more alliances and become a threat to the throne.
