In tonights episode of Game of Thrones, we welcome Jon Snow back to the land of living and watch Bran dip into the past, in the aptly named Oathbreaker. The episode catalogs an assortment of broken promises, cast aside vows, and old lies that will shape the characters paths in season 6. Spoiler Note This post is for those who have read the A Song of Ice and Fire series. The post and the comments section will contain spoilers from the novelsBecause no, we are not all Unsullied now. If you havent read the books yet, please check out our non book reader recap. ThanksOathbreaker starts off by bringing us right to where we want to be with a shaken Jon Snow understanding quickly that hes come back to life after being murdered by his own men. Wide eyed Davos watches him rise and you know the Onion Knight has found a new god to serve. Luckily, Davos doesnt give Jon time to dwell, pushing him back out into the world, and I have to say that if Im ever brought back from the dead by a red priestess, I want someone as blunt and practical as Davos Seaworth supporting me. No wonder Stannis kept him around for so many years. The people of Castle Black are in awe of Jon now except for Tormund, who as usual bases his world view on cocks. Though Jon is managing as well as one could expect, under the circumstances, no one can remain the same after that experience. Hes not a wight and he has his basic personality, but as another character has said,. In between upchuckings surprising no one, hes no sailor, Sam is forced to admit he isnt bringing her to the Citadel in Oldtown with him. They dont allow women to remain there, so hes dropping her off at his familys home in Horn Hill. Gilly reminds Sam of the promise he made that wherever she went, hed go too. Now, theyll be parted despite his words. It was rather low of Sam to take Gilly away from the Wall under false pretenses, actually. Though he had good intentions, making decisions about her future without considering her input and then lying to her is wrong, and he knows it. She was sheltered from the outside world a great deal, living with Craster, but as Gilly becomes more independent, you have to wonder if shell begin to resent Sam making decisions for her. Whatever happens, Im very much looking forward to seeing this duo take on the Tarlys in the near future. Im not even going to pretend to be cool about this, okay. Its the Tower of Joy. Its the TOWER OF JOY. Now, being a longtime reader of the A Song of Ice and Fire series, I made it a point to not re read the sections dealing with this scene before this season, so I wouldnt be inclined to nitpick. And I have to say, Im glad I did that. I dont care about Ser Arthur Dayne played here by Luke Roberts dual wielding swords instead of having one legendary sword. I dont care that there are two Kingsguard instead of three. And heading into this scene, I suspected they would cut out before Ned went upstairs into the Tower so thats not a disappointment for me. I know some people were hoping Game of Thrones would confirm the RLJ theory tonight but I think its too soon for that. I do think this scene even being included is one more major clue were a step closer to confirming the theory a bit further down the road. As for the scene itself, the show cleverly uses the framework of Bran and the Three Eyed Raven witnessing the events at the Tower of Joy. Through their eyes, we see young Ned Stark Robert Aramayo ride in to save his kidnapped teenage sister Lyanna who is being held in the tower. Ned and his five friends take on the two knights guarding the tower in a spectacular swordfight. Ser Arthur Dayne is a legend known throughout Westeros Bran knows who he is instantly and has heard stories all his life of how Ned defeated Dayne during this fight. But as Bran sees, thats not exactly how it played out. Watch The Woman Online (2017). Toward the end of the battle, only two men are standing Ned and Dayne, with the knight having killed many men on his own after his fellow Kingsguard was slain. Ned is clearly outclassed and Bran sees it, so how could his father have beaten him He didnt, not really. With young Ned on the verge of defeat and death, injured Howland Reed rises to stab Dayne in the back. Its only then that Ned is able to cut him down. Not an honorable kill, but its the choice Ned makes while his sister is waiting up in the tower, her cries carrying from the window. Watch Super 8 Putlocker#. Bran calls for his father and for a moment, Ned seems to hear Brans voice through the years, but then he turns away, and the Three Eyed Raven pulls Bran from the vision. And we all curse out that old man for again depriving us of the glory of these beautifully rendered flashbacks that leave us aching for more. Bran does too, more or less, when hes back in his body, but the Three Eyed Raven is adamant that Bran must limit his time in the visions and he must continue to learn. In Essos, the khalasar has arrived in Vaes Dothrak, delivering Daenerys to the Dosh Khaleen, the widows of many khals. The khaleesis welcome isnt quite as warm as she might hope since Dany didnt turn up at Vaes Dothrak back she should have, right after Khal Drogo died. Thats the standard protocol for khals widows, but she violated it. As the head Dosh Khaleen lady explain, the khals are meeting soon and theyll have to decide whether or not Daenerys will be staying with the Dosh Khaleen after all. So Danys Great Dothraki Road Trip may not be at an end after all. In Meereen, Varys is getting closer to answering the question of who is behind the Sons of the Harpy attacks. He brings in for questioning the Meereenese woman we saw last season laying with White Rat of the Unsullied as he was murdered by the Sons. The woman played by Meena Rayann has a young son, and Varys seizes on this to manipulate and frighten her into informing on the Sons of the Harpy. Varys bring the info to a meeting with Tyrion, Grey Worm and Missandei. Apparently, the masters of Astapor and Yunkai, with assistance from the slave city of Volantis, are responsible for funding the terrorists. After hashing it out, the council decides on Tyrions advice to send a message to the masters. In Kings Landing, Qyburn is binding Varys little birds closer to him with sweets, but something tells me the little birds may still have loyalty to their old master. As the children enjoy their candy, Cersei pays a visit with Jaime and Ser Gregor as she plainly calls him now in tow, asking for information, and stating she plans to use the Mountain in the trial by combat thats to come. Afterward, Cersei stops by the Small Council to find Kevan Lannister the current Hand of the King meeting with Olenna and Mace Tyrell and Grand Maester Pycelle. Pycelle puts his foot in his mouth royally when it comes to Ser Gregor, and Im guessing the old maester is going to get the Gregor SMASH headspecial before the season is out. Kevan once again proves he is great at ditching meetings in style, and refuses to talk with Cersei present. He and his company depart, leaving Cersei and Jaime to stew in the slight. Elsewhere in the city, Tommen is attempting to assert himself with the Faith and not doing the best job. He approaches the High Sparrow at the sept about his mother, but the High Sparrow stills insists Cersei needs more atonement. Tommen is way out of his league when dealing with the High Sparrow, that much is certain. The old man dances around him with gentle and subtle manipulations, understanding the king is a confused young boy in over his head. He defers taking ownership of any of his actions, claiming its not what he wants, its what the gods want, and Tommen buys it. Aryas kung fu training movie montage takes us through her return to the House of Black and White. The Waif is a harsh mentor, laying into Arya with the big stick as they fight, and the little stick for the Game of Faces. Though still blind, Arya is more adept at fighting, and is becoming No One more and more, it seems.
