Spoilers through Season 6 of 'Game of Thrones' follow.Sunday night's episode of Game of Thrones was packed full of huge reveals, sneaky political maneuvers, and the return of characters we haven't seen in a long, long time.
From the frozen North to the streets of Braavos, "Blood Of My Blood" represents a turning point for the season, and for the show itself, as we press forward into new territory.
Let's start where we left off last week, with the death of Hodor as he held the door against a tide of evil. Look there, into the night, into the swirling snow. Two shadows, sloughing through the forest. One is running, pulling the other on a stretcher behind her.
The girl, Meera, drags Bran as he flashes through vision after vision. He sees the Mad King as he orders his men to "burn them all" with wildfire. He sees himself fall from the tower, pushed by Jaime Lannister. He sees his father as a young man. He sees the Night King (Night's King in the books.) And all the while he doesn't wake, until Meera collapses from weariness. Then Bran opens his eyes. "They've found us," he says.
And sure enough, the dead come running toward them. Then a rider shows up, a masked man clad all in black. I thought we might finally see Cold Hands, a character from the books we haven't seen yet, this week, as a convenient savior for Meera and Bran. Cold Hands rides in with a flaming mace and some other handy skeleton-killing weapons, and scoops up the two just in the nick of time. They ride off.

Later, we discover the big news, the fan theory finally confirmed: Cold Hands is Benjen Stark, Ned's brother and Bran's uncle. But when he shows us his face, it's transformed. He's half-turned, we discover, after a White Walker's blade pierced him. The Children of the Forest saved him and pierced his heart with Dragon Glass, which---I guess, if applied correctly---can actually stop someone from changing, though it's also used to create White Walkers. I'm not sure of the magic, to be honest. I'm just stoked to see Benjen return.
Benjen is a servant of the Three-Eyed Raven now, and tells Bran that he is the Three-Eyed Raven now. 'But I have so much to learn,' Bran says. 'I'm not ready.'
The Night King is coming, one way or another, to the realms of men his uncle replies. 'And when he gets there,' Benjen says, 'you'll be waiting for him.' (I paraphrase. Suffice to say, Bran as the Three-Eyed Raven plays a crucial role in confronting the Night King.)
All of this is pretty huge as far as the story goes. We continue to move into territory that hasn't been touched on by the books, and if Martin goes the same route as the show, we just got hit hard with yet another spoiler. It could very well be that this isn't the same version of Cold Hands as Martin's. We shall see.
In any case, that's all the North we get. Let's fly on our merry way, through the swirling snow and over this high wall of ice. Notice Castle Black as we fly, the little dark shapes of Crows milling about its courtyard. Somewhere not too far off Jon and Sansa are riding to rally the North, though we won't see them this week. We won't see Brienne either, as she makes her way to Riverrun, though we'll need to speak more about that soon.
Rather, let's fly across the Narrow Sea to...
Braavos
Here, a girl is on a mission. A girl has no name, but she seems amused now rather than perturbed by the play she watches. She laughs at Joffrey's death, as though seeing it here---even in its bastardized form---is somehow cathartic. She also notices the young actress, Bianca, jealous of the older woman who plays Cersei, mouthing her lines.
So the girl sneaks inside before the curtains fall, and poisons the older actress's drink. But on her way out, the girl is noticed by her target, and drawn into a conversation. The woman's name is Lady Crane, the diva of Izembaro's Braavosi acting troupe, and someone who, we learn, has made many in her company jealous.
When Lady Crane tells the girl she thinks the writing is terrible, the girl says 'Why don't you change it?' She tells the actress that Cersei would not have merely wept at the death of her child. She would have gotten angry. Then the girl leaves, and we see Lady Crane go to take a deadly drink, but the girl swoops in and knocks it from her hand. 'Be careful of that one,' she says, pointing to Bianca. 'She wants you dead.'
Another girl is watching all of this. Jaqen H'ghar's helper. She goes to tell him what's happened, and reminds him that if the girl failed, he promised her she'd be the one to go and kill her.
Meanwhile, the girl gives up on her career as a Faceless Man, and goes back to where she buried her sword, Needle.
Arya pulls it from the rocks, like Arthur drawing Excalibur from the stone. And just like that she returns to us.
(This is yet another of my predictions for Season Six to come true. You can read the full ten here. I'm not doing badly as far as predictions go, but I've had both hits and misses so far.)

Soon we'll get a show down between the two girls, and Arya will stick that mean little punk with the pointy end. That's my guess anyways.
Let's hop on a ship and sail back across the Narrow sea. We'll make our first stop...
Horn Hill
The elegant castle of House Tarly, Sam's birthplace, is quite striking, and almost Romanesque. Here, Sam plans to leave Gilly and their 'son' Sam. He warns her not to mention she's a Wildling, because his father Randyll 'doesn't like Wildlings much.'
Turns out, Lord Randyll doesn't like much of anything, least of all his firstborn son, Sam. The old Lord is rude, condescending, and mean-spirited. He glares openly at his son, who he hasn't seen in years, and then mocks his rotundness. When Gilly stands up for him, she tells the astonished family that Sam is a hero. He's killed a Thenn (the creepy cannibal Wildlings) and a White Walker.
To that, Gilly receives bemused chuckles and disbelief. There's no such thing as White Walkers, of course. But she insists, and in her recounting of Sam's heroics, lets slip a key detail about her identity. When Randyll discovers she's a Wildling, he gets even worse and more vicious, to the point that his wife, Lady Melessa, and Sam's sister Talla, leave the room with Gilly in a huff.
Painfully awkward silence follows, as Sam, Lord Randyll, and Sam's younger brother Dickon are the only ones to remain at the table.
The most important detail to come out of the dinner, however, was Lord Randyll's possession of their family sword: Heartsbane. This is one of the few Valyrian steel blades in Westeros. Jon has Longclaw. Brienne has Oathkeeper, a Valyrian steel blade made from Eddard Stark's greatsword, Ice.
What we know of Valyrian steel is that it's one thing that can slay a White Walker. That makes Sam stealing Heartsbane all the more wonderful. I didn't expect him to make such a bold, and quite honestly dangerous, move. No doubt, if Lord Randyll catches him, Sam will not be long for the world. On the other hand, this puts Valyrian steel into the hands of one of the only people to ever kill a White Walker (along with, as far as we know, Jon and Meera.)
Horn Hill is near Highgarden. We'll fly over the Tyrell's castle, now emptied of soldiers, as we make our way to...
King's Landing
Jaime is so disappointed in his son. (Credit: HBO)
Here yet another of my predictions has come true, while another has proved false. In my predictions post, I speculated that 'there will be blood' between the Sparrows and the Lannisters. But just the other week, I also noted that the High Sparrow was playing Lannister and Tyrell alike for fools by telling Tommen that Queen Margaery would be forced to make the walk of atonement.
Well, no blood was spilled, but the High Sparrow certainly played the nobility for fools. He managed to get Margaery to convince young Tommen to support the Faith, and to essentially form a united front between crown and church. Tommen, pliable as he is, obliged. So when Jaime and the Tyrell men-at-arms, along with Lord Tyrell and the Queen of Thorns, all show up on the steps of the High Sept, ready for battle, the High Sparrow simply has the young king and his king's guard stroll out. Tommen takes Margaery's hand and announces the brave new world they'll create together, boy king and High Sparrow united.
Jaime looks annoyed. Mace Tyrell looks confused. The Queen of Thorns realizes at once how badly they were all just beaten.

In my latest Game of Thrones video, I talk about the High Sparrow and why I like him as a villain so much. If you've got a moment to watch, please let me know what you think down in the comments. Who is your favorite villain (or semi-villain) in the show?
Destination Riverrun
Back in the Red Keep, Tommen strips Jaime of his rank as Lord Commander of the King's Guard. This reminds me of Joffrey's decision to strip Ser Barristan Selmy of his position as Lord Commander, not long before Joffrey swallowed some poison. I don't think Tommen is going to last very long, with Jaime gone, Cersei preparing to stand trial, and his uncle Kevan Lannister very nearly incapable of actual human speech. (Kevan is no Tywin, that's for sure.)
So Jaime is instead ordered to go march on Riverrun, to take back the castle of House Tully from the Blackfish, Catelyn Stark's uncle. The Freys have lost it (though 'lost' is the wrong word for losing a castle, Lord Walder Frey tells his hapless sons when they give him the news.) Once again, Jaime will be in the Riverlands, while Freys and Tullys fight. What he does when he gets there remains to be seen, but I think perhaps we'll start to see Jaime change.
After all, Brienne is also riding for Riverrun and the Blackfish, to try to enlist his support against Ramsay Bolton. Sounds like the man will be plenty busy fighting off Lannisters and Freys, however. Oh, and we finally see Edmure Tully, Catelyn's brother, again for the first time since the Red Wedding.
Edmure is played by Tobias Menzies in the show, a fact I'd forgotten until tonight. As someone who is now also watching Outlander on Starz, this is somewhat problematic. Menzies' performance on that show is remarkable and extremely disturbing. I'm going to have a hard time seeing him as Edmure so soon after seeing him as Captain Jack Randall. But I digress.
Suffice to say, things are going to heat up in the Riverlands. We also hear of the Brotherhood without Banners, which makes me wonder if we'll see that Merry Band of outlaws again, and if so...will we once again see Lady Stoneheart?
With Benjen returned, and Jon resurrected, and Gregor Clegane brought back as Zombie Mountain, I say anything is possible. I'm definitely excited to see Jaime and Brienne heading toward one another once again, unwittingly, as they each ride with separate quests to Riverrun.
We, on the other hand, will fly East to...
Somewhere in the desert, where the Dothraki ride.
In that video I posted up above, I mention another theory that's been gaining momentum in my mind: That Danaerys Targaryen, Mother of Dragons, Breaker of Chains, and various other titles, is not a hero at all. This scene made me start to believe this even more.
Daario Naharis and Dany talk as they ride, and the roguish mercenary tells her that she isn't meant to sit on a throne. 'You're a conqueror,' he says. The implication is that she's very good at beating the pants off her enemies, and much less skillful when it comes to actually governing. Meereen is a good example of this.
Then she goes off, finds her dragon Drogo, and rides down to give yet another inspiring speech to her barbarian horde. Two thoughts about this. First, the show needs to stop doing rousing speeches. Earlier, Mace Tyrell's speech to his men about ending the madness in the streets of King's Landing was supposed to be seen as somewhat silly and bumbling. We were supposed to smirk at him like Jaime does, this stupid Lord playing soldier. But Dany's speech isn't any better.
She's quite literally planning to bring thousands of barbarian raiders and highly trained slave warriors across the sea to Westeros, where they will 'knock down their stone houses' and take back what's hers. Dany wants to take back what's hers, even though she's never spent a day of her grown life in the Seven Kingdoms, knows virtually nothing about them, and is so bloodthirsty and ambitious in her need to rule over yet another kingdom, that she'd be willing to bring a horde of murderous, raping, thieving, killers along with her for the ride, almost certainly leading to far more death and destruction and mayhem than has already been visited upon that land.
She's the daughter of a man who ruled over Westeros with such monstrous actions that he was deemed the Mad King. A king who burned Ned Stark's father and brother to death, and would have burned thousands more had Jaime Lannister not killed him.
So is Dany really a hero? Can she possibly be a hero when we know what we know? Why is the Iron Throne hers to begin with? The Targaryens conquered Westeros a long time ago and made it theirs, but then they were beaten, soundly, by the Baratheons and Starks. At this point, Dany is more foreigner than local. She goes everywhere with a sense of entitlement and righteousness that's as arrogant as it is dangerous. And quite frankly, I'm not sure she'd be very good at ruling the Seven Kingdoms.
Maybe Daenerys is a villain, too.
A villain with dragons and a barbarian horde.
Maybe just the sort of villain the world needs, of course, given the impending doom coming down from the North. But still, not exactly someone I'm rooting for at this point.
Verdict
Yet another fantastic episode this season, if not quite so traumatic as last week's. Benjen is back, Edmure is back, Jaime and Brienne are both headed to the Riverlands, and Sam stole a Valyrian steel blade from his prick of a father. Best of all, Arya is out of that spooky death cult and is, hopefully, going to make her way back to Westeros. We didn't get any Iron Islands, Dorne, or Jon/Sansa stuff this week, but that's okay. There was plenty here to chew on.
