Season 6 Episode 2
Guess, whos back?
All that remains is the exuberant joy that George R.R.
Yet, lets not get ahead of ourselves.
First, to savor fandoms extraordinary victory, let us go to the playback.
The only real surprise of how this sequence played out was the reluctance expressed by Melisandre.
Here is an old woman who has seen enough of life and needs a nice sit.
The sequence itself included everyone leaving the room, and only Ghost staying to hear him stir.
Even in this episode, the Wall saw massive upheaval tonight.
They made short work of the Nights Watchbut perhaps too much so.
In their stead, it was just the ineffectual that would bend in whatever direction the wind blew.
But did he have the full support of the Nights Watch to kill Jons loyalists?
We just spentan entire episode of season 4(and it was a good episode too!)
focused on the Nights Watch repelling a similar force.
Still, it should give one pause that such muddying is spreading across the Seven Kingdoms.
Hopefully, the Wall will block its momentum completely from this point forward.
And Isaac Hempstead Wright looks much changed.
Forget the question mark around Jons mother.What happened to Hodor?!
But that too will (hopefully) be revealed in time.
For now, the scene is just about being reacquainted to Bran Starks storyline two calendar years later.
Consequently, he suffered the worst fate imaginable for a father who was never worth his salt.
The distinction thus seems quite arbitrary in the TV series narrative.
This demise was delivered by his pirating younger brother, Euron Greyjoy.
Considering she is preaching practicality and measured foreign policylike not starting wars they cant winshell undoubtedly be ignored.
Ramsay needed not to kill Walda after murdering his father.
But Ramsay is perhaps the closest television will come to the Antichrist in fiction.
Shows likeLuciferandDamienneed not bother anymore.
And its pure nightmare fuel.
Plus, I need to ask where in the Seven Hells is Kevan Lannister during all this?
Isnt he now Tommens Hand?
Mentioning his kinslaying of a cousin notwithstandingwhich in George R.R.
After all, the dragons are now unchained.
But in this case, the tranked-dino are two very alert and fire-breathing creatures of majestic destruction.
Hence why Tyrions peace-making will prove to be so crucial in the weeks to come.
But there are two other dragons that need riders in order for their destruction to be well aimed.
Overall, there was plenty of good omens for things to come onGame of Thrones.
Two of those elements are obviously on a collision course.
But first, itll be time for Ser Alliser and Olly to come out and take their medicine.
Finally… Jon Snow will probably know somethingand hell be ready to share it with the world.
