A Golden Crown

Clarke appears as Daenerys Targaryen in A Golden Crown, the sixth episode of season one, with Harry Lloyd as her brother Viserys, Jason Momoa as the horselord Khal Drogo, and Iain Glen as her counseler, the Westerosi knight Ser Jorah Mormont. In Vaes Dothrak, Daenerys places one of her dragon eggs into the brazier to see if it will be affected by fire. Despite the heat, she is unaffected when she holds the stone egg, although a serving girl is burned when she touches it. She is summoned by the wise women of the Dothraki dosh khaleen and is made to eat a stallion’s heart to prove her strength as mother to the heir of the khal. Viserys attempts to steal Daenerys’s most valuable wedding gift in order to raise an army of mercenaries, but is stopped by Ser Jorah. Viserys then threatens Daenerys and her unborn child and breaks Dothraki law by drawing a blade within Vaes Dothrak. He is punished by Khal Drogo with an agonizing death.
