Episode three of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, called “The Squire,” serves as a harsh reality check for Dunk (Peter Claffey) about what it truly means to be a knight. It’s striking that Dunk, who came from the rough streets of Flea Bottom and was raised by a flawed mentor, is learning these lessons in a similar way to Sansa, who had a privileged upbringing in Winterfell with a loving family. This episode shows Dunk actively choosing to remain naive as a way to stay hopeful in a difficult world. As the first season reaches its midpoint, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms has spent enough time with lighthearted moments and is now preparing for more serious challenges ahead.

The episode ends with a fight between Dunk and Aerion, the future king. Aerion was cruelly injuring a performer, Tanselle, because her play showed a dragon being killed – he apparently saw this as a challenge to his family’s power. When Dunk intervened, Aerion demanded Dunk’s teeth be broken. However, Egg stopped the fight by revealing he was Aerion’s brother and commanded the knights to stand down, threatening them with his father’s wrath if they didn’t.

The statement was signed by filmmaker Jafar Panahi, Mohammad Rasoulof (director of The Seed of the Sacred Fig), and Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi. They strongly condemned the Iranian government’s violent response to recent protests. The statement calls the widespread killing of protesters – those who bravely demanded an end to the current government – a systematic crime against humanity. It specifically cites the use of live ammunition, the deaths of tens of thousands, the mass arrests and persecution of protesters, attacks on the injured, and the denial of medical care as a betrayal of Iran and a threat to its security.
