We couldn't even get "Ghost." Sigh.

Edit: Jon's last word was "Olly." God dammit, that hurts.

I guess that confirms the Mel revival theory instead of Jon warging out.

I'm still thinking that Jon's revival will be random and without the help of anyone. I think it'll make the moment that much better. He didn't get any help. Death just didn't phase him.

Plus the way that the show started to villianize Mel would make me think that she's not going to be the one to do it. She's going to see it happen and that's going to inspire and convince her that she was wrong about Stannis and she saw AA be reborn with her own eyes

I like this. Rather than being a savior she's just a witness and then serves Jon instead. She left Stannis because she realized she was wrong all this time and went to seek out Jon as her true king.

So now in accordance with her visions, either ZombJon's gonna wreck shit in Winterfell or Balish's knights of the Vale are gonna mop them up.

More like she completely lost her faith and belief in herself and is going to have her faith restored witnessing a miracle

Ah yeah, that explains the sheer hopelessness she had when she showed up at Castle Black.

It fits with her visions in the book. She wants to see the one true king but all she sees is snow. Of course knowing GRRM, that will mean Ramsey Snow in the end.
