My favorite R+L=J scene is when Jon goes to the wall and what Ned says to him: "You are a Stark. You may not have my name, but you have my blood." beautifully writen.

[@rschroev]

My favorite is Maester Aemon talking to Sam: "A Targaryen alone in the world is a terrible thing" [Jon enters the room]

[@thyone3925]

@@rschroev and Aemon knew exactly what he was talking about. As he was a targaryen alone in the night's watch.

[@samuelhiatt9338]

The most tragic part is what Ned tells Jon. "When I return, we'll talk about your mother." He so desperately wanted to tell Jon the truth about his mother, Ned's sister. He loved Jon like he was his own to the point where it agonized him not to have him know the truth. It's sad that it took so many years for that truth to be revealed to Jon.

[@wasteallocationrobot]

@@jcompton8507 Ned lost his father and sister because of the war her relationship with Rhaegar caused. He knew that Robert Baratheon couldn't even get to Jon if he was already at The Wall. Robert would have no reason to kill him. Ned's purpose in waiting for Jon to go to the wall was just to protect him. I know it might be a joke but someone would actually think you were serious. lol

[@kenok1225]

OF COURSE Ned never cheated on his wife. Throughout the series everyone pointed out how out of character that is!!!! LOVED watching you calculate it in your head!

[@johnnyd765]

That brings back what Ned said in the 1st episode when he parted with Jon: "Next time we meet I'll tell you all about your mother!", that's because Ned didn't spend some nights or a short while as one would expect with that woman during the war, he spent his whole life, because he was talking about his own sister that he knew very well, so he can tell all about her. Makes sense if you think about it. But... they were never to meet again...

[@wooshbait36]

@@zimbo65a What?

[@avon8794]

It's funny how obvious it is in hindsight. The trick was to state it as a fact before we really got to know Ned, when we don't know his character well enough to question it, and there is no obvious reason to lie about it. We are much more likely to question information we get later, especially if it goes against something we already believe. I wish the show had done a better job explaining the R/L relationship before the reveal though, those who hadn't read the books or heard the theory all seemed to be confused, unsure of who the father is. It even took Sofie a while to figure out. So much context missing, no mention of the prophecy. This was the biggest twist in the books(most likely), and they did a pretty bad job of it

RIP Queen Margaery Tyrell. She was very manipulative but never was a cruel person to get what she wanted. She never tortured innocents, gave win win solutions to those who deserved it whilst gaining power, and she fought of evilness and ruthlessness with kindness and politeness and I really liked that about her. She definitely had a heart when it came to her family and everything she did this season was for her family and house’s safety. And I think she genuinely had a soft spot for Tommen and liked him way more than Renly or Joffrey.

[@realSimoneCherie]

Margaery was a high potential player in the game. Can you imagine the sheer panic you would feel going through your body realizing Cersei and Tommen weren’t there

[@kenok1225]

She was clever, ambitious, but not evil, as you pointed out. More than anything, I think she was ahead of her time. Looking back though, she wasn't THAT clever. Remember when she taunted Cercei right after the wedding? That was not a good idea.

Yes, Jon is the son of Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen. Lyanna swore Ned to secrecy because she knew Robert would kill the baby, because he's of the Targaryen bloodline. And Ned never broke his vows, but couldn't tell anyone. Actually there were some hints dropped in earlier episodes...

[@MariaStarkTargaryen]

It`s funny enough that you included all the hints about Jon`s parentage in all your reactions so far. You`d watch "R+L=J - Who`s Jon`s real mother?" now and see all of them. They were seeded all around the show till this season.

[@natecloe8535]

The best fan invented companion to any show ever. Its essential viewing and HBO should have included it as a bonus for those buying season 6 and pay the person who created it. Its PHENOMENAL. The absolute BEST are when Sansa and Littlefinger are in the crypt and Sansa points out that Rhaegar g-raped and ended her aunt Lyanna. And Littlefinger gives that PERFECTLY acted, little smile at her innocence and ignorance because he knows the truth. He may not know how Jon is involved but he knew of the secret marriage. My personal favorite is Measter Aemon and Sam in the library. Measter Aemon says "a Targaryen alone in the world is a terrible thing." And RIGHT THEN Jon walks in and interrupts.

Respectfully, that reveal didn't exactly come out of nowhere.. it has long been said that Ned Stark wouldn't have forsaken his honour for anything. It was a shock to anyone who knew Ned that he had supposedly fathered a bastard child.. the fact is that Rhaegar died fighting without his men by his side, instead they were guarding Lyanna at the Tower.. that was a big giveaway that R+L=J 🙌 so at this point we know that Lyanna is Jon's mum and she made her brother promise to keep it secret, because as we also know Robert was in love with Lyanna himself & would have killed her baby if he found out the truth that he was Rhaegar's son. 😌 Loving all your reactions, can't wait to see more! ✨

It's not a good episode, IMO, just because it is action-heavy and involves a lot of spectacle. The writing still lets it down.

It didn't take Reddit to figure it out. I read A Game of Thrones for the first time in 2004, and I grew suspicious the first time they said his mom was a secret. In story telling, that's like putting flashing lights around this "mystery." I started to suspect Lyanna fairly early in the book, but was convinced when Ned was having hallucinations about her saying "Promise me, Ned," while he was imprisoned in KL. It's even more fun to look for clues on re-reads. My absolute favorite is during the Royal visit to Winter, in the scene when Arya sneaks out of her lessons to watch the boys spar in the training yard. She finds Jon sitting on a wall watching Robb fight Joffrey. Arya asks why he isn't down there, and Jon answers, "Bastards are not allowed to damage young princes." On first read, we take it word-for-word has Jon means it. But the irony...

An interesting parallel with Jon being named "King in the North." When Robb was given the title, Cat sat to Robb's left side as the council proclaimed Robb the "King in the North." Now, as the title is passed on to Jon, Sansa, who is supposedly a spittin' image of Cat, sits to Jon's left.

Benjin tells Jon he might not join the watch if he knew what giving up his family meant, there's also the line from Ned about not having my name but my blood and "we'll talk about your mother next time I see you" Jon would be in the Watch by then and out of the reach of Robert so he could know.

Come on, it was obvious from the start that Ned Stark is not the kind of man who would cheat on his wife. There is a moment, in the middle of season 5, when Sansa and Little Finger are in the crypts of Winterfell, and she talks about how Rhaegar kidnapped Lyanna and raped her, but he gives her a look that says "you know nothing, Sansa Stark". At that moment, I figured out who Jon is.

[@dplunk13]

No one keeps a secret like Ned Stark. As others have said, there's several hints that Ned's story wasn't quite right. I think it's all the way back in the second episode that Robert asks Ned about the woman he had Jon with and Ned refuses to talk about it with him. One of my favorites is Stannis and his wife talking about Jon at Castleblack. She dismisses Jon as just a bastard but Stannis is skeptical. He says of Ned cheating on his wife "Perhaps. But that wasn't Ned Stark's way." We never get a scene of Ned and Stannis together but I love that Stannis knows Ned so well and sees it in Jon.

Now is the Perfect time for you to watch " R+L=J " video , please do it

[@ShubhamSharma-ow7jn]

There were several hints in the show in previous season about Jon Heritage,in fact he is Targaryen foreshadowing.

[@mathmexican4234]

I'm sure you will here it alot in the comments. but there is a youtube video of all the scenes from the show about Jon and Lyanna called "R+L=J: Who is Jon's Mother - ALL SHOW SCENES COMPILATION " . You should do a reaction to it.

[@rxhawk75]

Love the Jon Snow reveal reaction. There are very subtle hints to it. I had it somewhat spoiled by the time it aired, as I knew someone who read the books and he told me it was a theory he was Targaryen. I dismissed it because Jon burned his hand when he fought the wight at Castle Black.

[@PhoenixReturns]

Didn't come out of nowhere, all began and started to be alluded to all the way back in season 1 episode 1 ;) Also Ned was an 'honorable' man ;)

[@redviper6805]

First rule of making an awesome season finale: slowly start off with a SPECTACULAR EXPLOSION! Tommen saw his mom's true colors. Thanks to him, the city is now appropriately named King's Landing. Music was phenomenal! Another mega hit episode by M. Sapochnik! In Tyrion and Dany scene, it was a nice follow up on “it’s hard to be a cynic after that.” Before you begin Season 7, you should rewatch that Season 1 scene with King Robert and Cersei. Revenge for the Red Wedding Part One! It was agonizing to wait three years for that! Lucky you.

[@atlasisshrugging]

".... the city is now appropriately named King's Landing." 😳 😂😂 That's a good one; f**king SAVAGE. Thanks for the laugh.

It was already appropriately named, Aegon I literally landed with his dragon here before his conquest, hence the name.

The High Sparrow starts out as a very intelligent bad guy. He takes over the Faith of the Seven, gets Cersi to arm the Faith militant, arrests Loras and Margarye, betrays and imprisons Cersi, and gets King Spineless on his side. Some solid villain work there. But then he stupidly lets Cersi go thinking the Walk of Shame would break her (it just got her mad) and stupidly assumed that Cersi would show up for her trial at his Kangaroo court. And he ignores Margayre’s warning at the end. The high sparrow got stupid real fast.

Why do a lot of people think Jon is Robert’s son initially? She says “if Robert finds out he’ll kill him” why would Robert kill his son with the girl he was in love with but leave all the bastards he had?

S6x09 + S6x10 are the 2 finest hours of Television History. Finally..... I've held my tongue for 6 seasons in case she genuinely doesn't know R+L=J.

Let's go, my favorite episode of the show! Miguel Sapochnik is the MVP director of the entire series!

[@rol1xgames333]

R + L = J confirmed Rhaegar Targaryen + Lyanna Stark = Jon Snow!!! With means Jon is Targaryen! And Ned was so honorable that for the rest of his life he did not reveal his identity because he knew that Robert had sworn to kill any Targaryen he could get his hands on. For so many years he hid the truth from his friend, incurred the wrath of his wife when he brought a child as supposedly his bastard, anything to fulfill a promise made to his sister

[@hristoitchov]

Definitely the best episode of the entire series!

[@Rabidpygmy]

Lieana was ‘stolen’ by Raegar Targaryen. Jon is the son of the true heir of the royal house. Robert is wanted every Targaryen dead. If you remember the first fight Ned had with Robert was about Robert wanting to ‘kill a child’ because of who her parent’s were. Ned lied to his whole family, his wife, about cheating on her within weeks of them marrying to keep his nephew safe. I *think* uncle Benjen knew, and that was part of why he wanted Jon out of sight on the wall. Even the high king can’t call for the death of a man of the night’s watch. And Eamon told Jon about his family, his painful choices, how Targaryen’s never did well alone, that they need each other.

[@annaarwen4345]

From series 1 we always heard Robert intolerance towards any targaryan, he actively sought to kill Dany when she was a child. Rhaegars children were murdered and even though its put on Tywins shoulders Im pretty sure Robert authorised it. Roberts fixation on Lyanna wasnt love, it was possessiveness. He would never have let Jon live

[@frankromero5782]

I can literally see numbers and algorithms bouncing over your head trying to figure out Jon’s lineage.

[@GeekFurious]

"We've never had a hint..." lol. I made the first video showing you all the hints... way back in 2015 which was then followed up by a more popular video doing the exact same thing. Also, David & Dan convinced George RR Martin to let them make the show 10 years earlier by using the clues throughout the books about who his mother was.

[@CoryGasaway]

Like everyone else says, watch the R + L = J video. It's the perfect time and not a spoiler. We all watched it a season before this season 6. That's how early it came out.

[@danieldigangi399]

I told you, best episode ever, there's still some good episodes left anyway, don't believe what people say, one thing is true tho Ramin Djawadi, the music composer, is the best thing in the last season

Most overrated episode of the series.

[@JayTor2112]

We could use a Cersei Lannister in Davos. just realized how confusing that sounds. NOT Davos the character in the show, but a lovely town in Switzerland. Anyway, of course the next video now has to be "R+L=J". There are a lot of subtle clues going all the way back to season one, but they are really only clues in hindsight, mostly just talk of Lyanna and Rhaegar.

[@diogoserra988]

Jon is Lyanna Stark's son. She was kidnapped by Rhaegar Targaryen according to people. Put 2 and 2.

It's not totally out of nowhere, Sofie. They have shown how honorable Ned was, and hinted over the seasons that something was amiss. To quote Stannis from last season: "that wasn't Ned Stark's way".

The important implication of all this is that Jon Snow, I mean Jon Targaryen, has the best claim to the Iron Throne.

Ned knew ( Lyanna too)!that King Robert would kill him if the truth was known so he lied about the boy. He's a Targaryen.

Ned probably assumed if he did see Jon again it would be away from kings landing, meaning Robert would be dead and no longer a threat.
