10 Iconic Game of Thrones Episodes That Will Remind You How Good the Show Can Be

This is one of the few episodes to tug at our heartstrings without the use of dragon fire, warfare, or outright duplicity. Instead, this instalment focuses on relationships, with Sansa confronting Littlefinger about his role in her marriage to Ramsay Bolton. Her moving speech about the trauma she endures during the union speaks to the content of her character and warns her former guardian never to cross her again lest he pay the price. Daenerys's emotional moment comes in the form of goodbye as she sends Jorah Mormont away to find a cure for his greyscale. And of course, the titular event of Hodour holding the door so Bran and Meera can escape a horde of wights crushes our souls — especially once we understand Bran's warging causes Hodour's damaged mind.
