What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

So it's is simultaneously both this horrible thing Bran did to Hodor, and yet still Hodor's heroic, selfless choice.

I like the idea that Hodor knew it was coming and so he deliberately stayed with Bran to protect him all this time because it was bothering me that the actual door-holding was not his decision.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You know, I realize now that I'm only just beginning to understand the distinction between the White Walkers and the army of zombie wights.

But all of the babies turned out at Craster's Keep were turned into White Walkers. But wights are just any old dead that get raised up by the Night King.

And you can kill the wights buy chopping and fire (Trad Zombie).

But you need Dragonglass/Obsidian or Valyrian Steel to kill a White Walker. (Probably dragon fire too.)

WELL THAT ARYA STORYLINE IS HEATING UP. What a brilliantly evil final scene.

I forget, has Coldhands appeared on the show? Because isn't it fanon that Benjen is Coldhands, which...appears to be confirmed now?

ETA: Hm, it appears the answer to my question is very complicated. No, he has not appeared on the show. Yes, it is fanon that Benjen is Coldhands. But...yes, it is confirmed that Benjen is Coldhands ON THE SHOW but...apparently not in the books?? WHAT IS THE DEAL.

Yeah, I dunno about Coldhands, or how that relates to the books.

I am now more convinced than ever that Lady Stoneheart will in fact be appearing on this show. Possibly even next week. I know, I've called it once before this season, but after that preview I'm willing to give it another shot.

And HOLY CRAP THAT ENDING, THO!

If they have somehow managed to keep that a secret, I will be very impressed. Maybe they intentionally put all the focus on Jon's VERY OBVIOUS RESURRECTION to draw attention from Catelyn's secret resurrection. As someone on AVC pointed out, we're actually gaining Starks this season!

And HOLY CRAP THAT ENDING, THO!

Because books.

Is Margery's conversion genuine? I figured it was just a ploy, but now I don't know. I get Tommen caving in to her without seeing the consequences but otherwise I'm confused. I guess I thought Cersei would have more of a reaction, too.

DAENERYS STORMBORN FOR PRESIDENT.

I actually felt the hair on the back of my neck quiver when Daenerys came back and marshaled her army.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I'm pretty sure Margery just wants as many fanatics with swords standing behind her as she can get. Controlling the king's army and the sept's army seems like a pretty sweet deal, and she's always been better at the long game than Cersei.

Someday, I want to be able to say "hang on guys, just gotta go get my dragon" before a presentation. SOMEDAY.

I'm hoping Faceless Bitchy Girl can be somehow convinced not to kill Arya. So far this season we're up three Starks from last year (Rickon, Arya, Benjen), I'd hate to start losing them again.
