Jace and Baela have been engaged since childhood, and have faced more than their fair share of trauma since then. When asked how Baela and Jace's relationship would fare, given that Rhaenyra and Daemon have some series issues, Collett had this to say:

“I don't think we know the full length of what's going on between them, because Daemon definitely won't talk to Baela about it, and Rhaenyra definitely won't talk to Jace about it.”

One of the biggest unanswered questions afterwards House of the Dragon Season 1 was about whether Alicent would ever learn the truth about what Viserys was trying to tell her. The audience knows that Viserys did not name his son Aegon his heir, but instead told Alicent the Song of Ice and Fire about Aegon the Conqueror because he was mistaking his wife for his daughter. In the previous episode, Alicient and Rhaenyra finally talk and have a chance to clear the air, but Alicient recognizes that it's too late. Both sides have taken too many lives for things to be forgiven, and the song of Fire and Blood is sure to get even hotter and bloodier as the season progresses.
