Game of Thrones

There HAS to be a reason Melisandre went back to Castle Black./url]

First thing I thought as well. Especially since I assume she knows Davos is there, and he's probably the last person she would want to be around right now. And where's Ghost when you need him?

I am looking forward to seeing Tyrion and Varys lording over Meereen.

So apparently these photos were shared before the episode aired. What the heck is the story behind this?

Notice the eyes? Could be a fake, but then again, these did come out before the episode aired. Last minute decision to change a major reveal?

Those eyes look the same when Bran would leave his body. hmmmm.

If Jon is really dead then why go to the trouble of hinting towards him being Targaryen? Honestly who is after the throne now? Anyway if Snow is dead then I'm out, this season just hasnt done it for me.
 
This is just conjecture, but if Thoros of Myr, the red priest, could bring Beric Dondarrion back to life, Mellisandre should certainly be able to do the same for Jon. When Jon is assassinated in the book she's there, not having left with Stannis. In the show, she makes a surprise return (which may or may not have doomed Stannis' army.)

Should it happen that Mellisandre revives him, Jon would be freed from his oath the Night's Watch, given that it ends with his death. That would make him a free agent.

It's not confirmed he's dead in the books, but it wouldn't surprise most folks.

I'm curious to see how this plays out. I could see him genuinely being dead and gone, but I could also see them just kinda buying time/hedging bets to see what happens with Winds of Winter before making the call. I think what might happen is that he's basically MIA for Season 6, like how Bran was for Season 5.

Of the list of known POV characters for Winds of Winter, Jon has not been confirmed as a POV character, and he's always been one in the books where he appeared. The one exception being, I think, Sam's perspective chapters in A Feast for Crows early on.

At least within the context of the books, I think it's hard to believe that Jon's truly out of the story. He could die and be resurrected somehow, but I don't think we've heard the last of him. In the show, though...who knows.

I agree that having Melisandre at Castle Black calls into question his death, as does Ghost's presence, but we just won't know, I think, and the showrunners have very clearly gone off book for a bunch of stuff this year.


On a semi-related note from last week....WTF was up with the Sons of the Harpy? It seemed to me that the showrunners kinda lost the plot with them. In the books, it's strongly suggested that they're former masters interested in undermining Dany's rule to get back into power, or possibly one of the religious factions. In the show, they just...slaughter everyone? WTF? It just didn't make a ton of sense to have them killing EVERYONE in the arena, both masters and commoners alike, all while trying to kill Dany.

Stanis isn't dead..I didn't see a body nor a head. Plus Brienne talks too much. If your gonna kill a man, do it. Don't talk his ear off cause it's likely gonna get you killed instead. Season 6 will show the rest of that scene. Maybe she will be working with him or Ramsy men got her & stanis as prisoners. A stannis solider cut her before she could strike.
 
I watched seasons 3 and 4 this weekend, and I have a question about episode 410.

Why did Arya just leave The Hound to suffer? She was willing enough to give him water...
I know she wanted him dead, but hadn't they kind of bonded by the end? He was protecting her, after all.
Did she really still despise him after all that? And after he made it clear to Brienne that he loved her?
It couldn't have been because of what he said about Sansa - she knows he's just trying to anger her.
Why didn't she put him out of his misery?

its love / hate relationship with those two. She left him there to die or survive really. She some what protected him as he did for her with the water. She is kinda if he dies..cool. If he lives... cool. They are both free from each other with out regrets / you owe me one for saving your butt.
 
So, it was her way of saying "I don't want you dead anymore."
Still kinda cold, leaving him there to suffer until he dies.
Especially since he's going to die as a direct result of protecting her.
At least he can die knowing he tried to do some good in his life, I guess.
I just don't understand Arya's indifference. She would be dead - or worse - if not for The Hound.
 
Does he die? She might have gave him a chance at a new life. One where he doesn't have to be the hound dog...but the master. Where he comes back to beat the snot out of a few people.

His scars kinda prevent him from ever being anything other than The Hound - he's recognized almost everywhere he goes.
I do hope he survived. He really grew on me in season 4.
 
Also, all the press saying he's dead could be a smokescreen to preserve the reveal if he's alive or comes back somehow. BSG did the same thing with Starbuck: lied to the media and had Katee do the same. Wishful thinking, I know.

This is my hope as well. I mean, if the rumors about Jon are correct, Martin has set up a lot of work only to have it arbitrarily taken away. Something is going on here and while it may be the end of Kit Harrington in the show, it doesn't necessarily mean the end of Jon Snow.
 
I also may be reading too much into it, but I thought it telling that Mellisandre shows up at Castle Black bundled up against the cold when she's previously shown it doesn't/shouldn't affect her.
