Let’s face it: it’ll be tough to top Game of Thrones Season 5 Episode 8.
Those wacky White Walkers and their undead minions delivered one of the most unforgettable action sequences the show has ever pulled off, and with just two episodes remaining, it’s hard to imagine anything in the next two episodes will blow our hair back quite the same way.
Of course, it wouldn’t be the first time showrunners D.B. Weiss and David Benioff shocked us out of our seats just when we were beginning to think they were out of tricks for the season.
With the show beating the books to the punch on big, climactic moments like the first meeting between Tyrion and Daenerys, truly no one knows what will happen next for the first time since GoT premiered.
In a season that’s already packed so many surprises (too many, according to some book-readers), it would be foolish to try and guess what will happen next.
That said, we believe we can safely say that if you think this season will have a happy ending for the newest Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch…then you know nothing, Jon Snow.
Jon in the Snow
Jon looking pensive in the snow. We get the feeling his future at Castle Black won’t be too bright.
Davos and Shireen
Davos and Shireen share a moment. Screw Stannis; we want Shireen to get the Iron Throne!
Arya Stark…Or Whatever Her Name is Now
Arya Stark continues her weird storyline in her Braavos. We’re pretty sure she’s gonna be able to change her face soon, which is pretty badass.
Melisandre: Hot in the Snow
Winter is finally coming to Westeros. But of course, Melisandre remains hot.
Daenerys and Hizdahr Zo Loraq
The Khaleesi and her husband-to-be. She should reconsider just so she doesn’t have to remember how to spell dude’s name.
Sam, Jon, Snow
Sam and Jon Snow enjoy some of the North’s lovely weather. Looks like Ned Stark was a better weatherman than we thought.
