I wonder if we will be seeing "cold hands" in the next episode. I thought we might have seen him when all the crows showed as Sam and Gilly were wandering around since that matches his appearance in the book, but they went with Sam killing the other.
It doesnt look like there are any Sam/Gilly scenes in Ep9, so I'm hoping Coldhands shows up in 10. I think it'd be a great cliffhanger to Sam's story like last year's.
