Daenerys Targaryen: Mother of Dragons, Breaker of Chains, Pranker of the Dothraki. 

Game of Thrones actress Emilia Clarke was recently caught pranking her co-stars while filming that fiery scene from Season 6, Episode 4. According to Vulture, production would have to stop filming every time the actors got too hot on set, leaving them to rest in the greenroom -- except for Clarke, who used her downtime to mess with the other actors.

In this clip, Joseph Naufahu, who plays a Dothraki Khal, dozed off leaving him vulnerable to Clarke's bittersweet antics. 

"I had my dessert sitting on the table, and she decided to smear the dessert on me," Naufahu told Vulture. "She put caramel fudge all over my fingers, all over my costume, and she was about to feed it to me, but I woke up. I woke up with a spoon in my mouth."

The actor also said Clarke would write Dothraki words on his arm and forehead. 

"Maybe she was delirious from all the propane on set," he added. 

Just be grateful she didn't stick her dragons on you.
