"Game of Thrones" Season 6 episode 2 ended on an exciting note, as fans finally got Jon Snow back and since we can't really expect the makers to kill him off again anytime soon, it certainly looks like there's hope for the Starks after all. Now that Jon is up and about, will he march off to reclaim Winterfell? Well, that remains to be seen.
The official synopsis for the upcoming episode 3, titled "Oathbreaker," reads, "Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) meets her future. Bran meets the past. Tommen confronts the High Sparrow (Jonathan Pryce). Arya (Maisie Williams) trains to be No One. Varys (Conleth Hill) finds an answer. Ramsay gets a gift."
The synopsis has no mention of Jon Snow but during a recent interview, actor Kit Harington revealed that this will be his biggest season yet as he was on the sets more than any other actor.
Reddit theorists believe there's a clue in the episode's title: "Oathbreaker." As a member of the Night's Watch, Jon Snow had to take an oath that he'd give his life to the brotherhood. Now that he technically died before being resurrected by Melisandre, surely his oath has been broken and he is free to leave Castle Black and take back the North from Ramsay Bolton — which seems to be the direction Season 6 is heading to.
Meanwhile, we also might have some idea about what Ramsay's "gift" could be. During her latest interview with BBC Radio 1, Maisie Williams, who plays Arya, was asked whether we'll see Rickon again this year. She hesitantly answered, "Yes? Maybe? Yes, we will indeed."
After realising that she might have given away too much, she joked, "Oh no, I'm literally going to get off the air and someone's going to email me."
However, Williams' accidental revelation lends credibility to the theory that Rickon is the "gift" that will be presented to Ramsay Bolton, according to IGN.
