One of the most heartbreaking moments of the show. Poor Hodor's mind perpetually locked in the moment of his own death since he was a child.

[@frankyfraaank]

one of the most heartbreaking moments in television

[@O_Towne_Bear]

Hats off to both Hodor actors.

[@reconsoldier135]

Not all heroes wear capes, some hold the door

[@zemasterze11]

When you realize the whole time he’s saying the last words he ever hears just makes you want to cry more.

[@JediPhoenix1976]

I think that this time around, it's not the character's death that gets you, it when you realize how Hodor got his name.

And becoming "Hodor" because he was saving his friend's life... and probably experiencing the immense pain of his own future death.

[@clonexx]

Yes. It’s heartbreaking not only because Bran bridged his past self to his future self which broke him and gave him his name, but also that his past self was witnessing, and likely feeling, his own death in the future. That massive trauma explains why Hodor became the simple, gentle giant he did. His brain couldn’t come to terms with what he experienced, so it sort of walled all of that off and left a small portion in tact. Enough to function, do simple tasks and just be a good protector for Bran.

[@davidwoolbright3675]

No. It’s definitely the death of Hodor!

[@Tiisiphone]

One of the saddest moments of this show. I cried the river when I understood what Hodor really meant.

[@mwhyte1979]

Probably, the most heartbreaking moment in a show that regularly broke your heart " in so many ways."

[@anubys7540]

One of the, if not THE, greatest TV reveal ever.

[@MrAshwinChauhan]

After all this time, still heartbreaking. 💔

[@jgali38]

First of all! This made me appreciate Ned Stark for taking in HODOR and making him one of the family! And most importantly probably the only person he trusted with his kids! Anybody else would have probably treated HODOR like garbage! HODOR sacrificed himself for the Stark Kids! This was one of the most gut wrenching episodes ever! 🙏🏻

[@King_Koolkaine]

It’s sadder when think that his child self calms down toward the end as his older self dies.

[@vijayanand6650]

Huge props to that young actor. He really sold that moment.

[@toschememestation1031]

The door broke, before Hodor did

[@LynnWilson-xl3vv]

🙏

[@heffatheanimal2200]

The last few years I've considered dressing up as Hodor for Halloween and running round holding doors for people

[@barryween4478]

The first Comic-Con I went to after that episode premiered, a guy did that, with skeleton arms attached to the door. We all cursed him for reminding us of this scene.

[@heffatheanimal2200]

@barryween4478 🤣🤣🤣👍

[@Hobodeluxe007]

The 3 Eyed Raven possessed him. Bran's abilities were not only warging and green sight but the Raven's ability to transcend time. By warging him in the present while in a vision of the past Hodor as a child experienced his own death. And all he could think was the command given by Bran. Hold The Door. Forever imprinted on his brain.

[@Mo_Aaron527]

This is one of the saddest scenes of the show

[@theartofflying3580]

@1:03 NOOOO-RRRRR 😂

[@patrickquilingan7893]

😅😅😅

[@Alvin-1138]

Spartan: Man, just a little awareness will pay dividends later..

[@9f81rsd00]

The man's been holding the door for decades...

[@RPCentral7]

Watched this with my sister about 2 weeks ago. We both cried. One of the coolest reveals that George RR Martin never revealed and such a sad moment

[@Dannstare]

8 fucking years and this scene still destroys me 😭😭😭

[@patrickkanas3874]

This was definitely Martin's plan for Hodor. D and D were not capable of something as heartbreaking yet powerful as this

[@jethal]

THANKS BRAN!!!

[@laughingoutloud5742]

I was inconsolable after watching this the first time. I still get misty thinking about it lol

[@TheRAH14]

Oh I still bawl every time...ISTG Bran is the villain of the whole series 😂

[@laughingoutloud5742]

What REALLY sucks is that Hodor would have become a whitewalker. Salt on my open wounds

[@KS-xk2so]

You mean a Wight. White Walkers raise the dead into Wights.

[@laughingoutloud5742]

@@KS-xk2so I stand corrected! ❤️✌️🇨🇦

[@scott441]

Everyone that died in GOT was guilty... some much more than others. Hodor was the only truly innocent. 😢

[@crystalk98]

Shireen was innocent too 😢

[@Gumnut08]

And the butchers boy ​@@crystalk98

[@hardybryan]

This is when I realized Bran was the true villain of the show.

[@adlockhungry304]

So, I guess in the show they make it less obvious. Bran was doing the Three Eyed Raven thing, visiting Winterfell in the past. When he realized they needed Hodor to, “hold the door” in the present, he warged into past Hodor’s mind, to control present Hodor to keep him at the door so the rest of them had time to escape.

[@testodude]

I think he made Hodor / Walder simple minded while was still a boy to be sure he wouldn't move away / get married / wander off from Winterfell before he needed him for this one moment. His terrible purpose. I guess the realm was at stake, so cool.

[@NickN56]

Just shows how powerful 3 eyed raven is. He can see past present and future

[@r4zoruss321]

@@testodude he didnt. he was as suprised as the people that witnessed it in reality. he was in a vision and at the same time he was warging into hodor to knock him out of his panic attack. the girl screaming got transferred into brans vision and because he was warged into hodor the young hodor also heard it. he propably connected with his future self, and his brain that expierienced its own death got damaged and the last command it received before death got imprinted on the part of brain thats responsible for speech. hodor wasnt smart but he undestood what he saw, he saw that he would die a painfull death in a storm by holding the door to save his friend. thats why he panicked everytime a storm came. the actor of hodor himself said that hodor understood whats going to happen and that he wasnt mad at bran for what happenned and wanted to fulfill what he saw to save him.

[@Knightowl1980]

Not many shows can make you care for a character who is largely irrelevant to the central plot and only utters one word for several seasons.

[@drewkrassny7498]

It's been years since the last time I watched GOT but I just realized watching this that as hodor carries Bran around all over the place while he's doing his warg shit he's literally holding the door(Bran) to the truth of the past, present, and future

[@testodude]

"he's having a seizure?" No, Bran and the 3 eyed Raven can work outside of time. One of them warged Hodor in the past as a boy, destroying his mind, to set him up for this moment for most of his life. To me, it's unclear if Bran was responsible for the warg, or if he just observed it happening in the past. 3 eyed crow did like to pull strings. If it was Bran that did the warg, it's also unclear if the warg was intentional, but I think it was. I think he made him simple to take his free will away (Old Nan said his name was Walder in the book / Wylis on the show, not Hodor) to be sure he stuck around Winterfell until he needed him for this purpose.

[@Student.here1]

Most emotional death everr💔

[@cardiac19]

Hodor!

[@79Bobola]

This broke my heart 💔

[@mdmyer]

I wonder if that's how George R.R. Martin will kill him off as well. I doubt we'll ever know at the rate he puts out his books.

[@KS-xk2so]

This is one of the spoilers GRRM gave the show runners early, its entirely his creation. That's why its good.

[@mdmyer]

@KS-xk2so I'm surprised dumb and dumber listened to him and didn't screw it up somehow.

[@KS-xk2so]

@@mdmyer If they could've somehow had Arya teleport in and hold the door instead, they'd have done it. Luckily this is essentially impossible to fuck up.

[@TheCrisxbarca]

​@@mdmyercmon now. You're giving dumb and dumber too much credit if you think they came up with this themselves

[@oktober-vh6gl]

some heroes hold swords, others hold the door...
