Let’s jump right in with the most pivotal and anticipated questions that may separate the true GoT fans who continue to watch each week vs. the wanna-be Throners/Twihards (or whatever our pop-culture fandom name might be) who have not invested hours upon hours cringing at the blood shed or holding their breath scene after scene.
1. Is Jon Snow dead?
Really though, he can’t be dead, right? Melisandre has to be planning some kind of dark magic spell to bring him back… maybe as a dragon perhaps? Could the creators actually do that to us? Would they really take away our only hope? And realistically, you think Melisandre would just casually be hanging at the wall if not to help Jon? I don't buy it.
2. Where is Ghost?
Jon needed you, buddy. Also, you're so bad*ss, please come back.
3. What TF happened to Arya?
Because whatever it was gave me nightmares and I need to understand. Also, the whole Stark clan really can't catch a break, can they?
4. Sansa and Theon?
I guess this isn't so much of a question of if they're alive since the season 6 spoilers answered that for us, but is Theon, like, fine now?
5. When and how is Ramsey Bolton going to die?
Because it really has got to be soon, and as violent as possible would be preferred. I swear, if Ramsey gets a peaceful death, GoT nation is going to lose it. He's seriously the WOAT (worst of all time).
6. Why didn't Tommen stop Cersei's Walk of Shame?
He's the King for goodness sake... Did he really not have the authority to stop the second most difficult to watch scenes in the show's history? Of course following closely behind the sacrifice of Shireen.
7. So, what's going on with Daenerys and the Dothraki?
I kind of got lost on that one. All I know is she and an injured Drogon are still stranded somewhere and he won't budge to fly her where she needs to go.
8. Aren't we missing two Starks?
If Rickon and/or Benjen Stark are found, please don't kill them, they literally might be our last shred of faith on this show.
9. What is Bran up to?
Because you know he's about to f*ck sh*t up. Still, he should've saved Jon while he had the chance, but it's okay, we understand you can't walk or anything.
10. Where is Littlefinger?
Because he's usually the perfect combination of sketchy, crafty, and crazy enough to pull off miracles, and right now The Seven Kingdoms are in need of some miracles.
11. Are we destined to become White Walker supporters?
For hopefully all of the answers to these burning questions, tune into HBO April 24, 2016.
