Also re: Arthur realizing in these moments that his father is awful. I COMPLETELY agree but I also thought that right there, seeing his father so winded and just not what he once was, he realizes that Uther is OLD. I think that's the moment when he realizes that him being King isn't just this faraway "oh haha someday I'll be king" thing. His father is old and someday soon he's going to die, and Arthur will be king. For me at least, that moment during the fight is where all that reality and responsibility really sunk in.
ETA: AND BY 2X10 IN THE PREVIOUS COMMENT I MEANT 3X10. SORRY BB. IT IS PAST MY BEDTIME.
