After finally having weird cave sex last week, Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and Ygritte climbed the next wall of their relationship on the May 5 episode of Game Of Thrones. Only their new ‘wall’ wasn’t metaphorical. It was very much the literal Wall of Westeros, and they nearly died trying to climb over.

There was a lot of action on the other side of the Wall this week — beginning with Ygritte threatening to wear Jon’s peeper around her neck if he ever betrays her — and it really helped me to understand Jon and Ygritte as a couple. Her thinly-veiled threat, his valiant rescue, that big kiss atop the Wall… I’m starting to really root for these two.

Lady & The Scamp

Meanwhile, far north of all that nonsense, Arya’s (Maisie Williams) archery lessons were interrupted by a new face — well, new to her at least. Melisandre (Carice van Houten) and her entourage had tracked down the Brotherhood to retrieve Gendry, as she needs a sacrifice with Stannis’ blood. Melly muttered something about him having a greater purpose than the rest of the Brotherhood, but honestly, she mutters a lot of things.

Before taking off, Melisandre looked into Arya’s future and saw that she’d one day get revenge on a whole mess of people. She also dropped an ominous “We will meet again,” which gave me goosebumps. Am I the only one already excited for their reunion?

Engaged & Confused

After spending her afternoon attempting to squeeze even an ounce of heterosexuality out of Loras, Sansa (Sophie Turner) was eventually given the buzz-kill news that she’s now engaged to Tyrion (Peter Dinklage).

But hey, at least it’s better than still being engaged to Joffrey (Jack Gleeson). Not only did we learn that Joffrey is the one who ordered Tyrion killed at Blackwater, but as we saw at the end of the episode, he’s also getting a little too in touch with his dark side. In fact, I’m pretty sure that was Ros we saw punctured through the chest by a crossbow — in Joffrey’s room!

Pray for Margaery, you guys.

Torture, Table Manners & No Targaryens

1. Theon got his pinky finger mangled by his captor, who once again gave him the run-around and made up a bunch of lies. This guy’s the freakin’ Cheshire Cat of torturers. What’s his deal?

2. Not only did Brienne (Gwendoline Christie) wear a frilly pink dress this week, but she also helped Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) cut his food at dinner. Their relationship is becoming very mother-son and I don’t like it.

3. I can’t believe there was no Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) this week. This is beyond.

3. ‘Game Of Thrones’ Recap: Jaime Suffers A Devastating Loss

We got our first official look at Game of Thrones‘ upcoming third season last week when the trailer premiered on Jimmy Kimmel! Live, but because HBO loves us — and knows how impatient we are — the network has released an extended trailer, featuring another half-minute of never-before-seen footage. We’re just 27 days away from the show’s March 31 premiere, and at this point, I’ll take anything I can get.

Cersei & Tyrion’s Sibling Rivalry

If you enjoy watching Cersei (Lena Headey) and Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) exchanging jabs, you definitely won’t go wanting in season three. The extended trailer features yet another confrontation between the two, with Cersei informing Tyrion, “You’re not as clever as you think you are.”

Proving her wrong, “The Imp” responds, “Still makes me more clever than you.”

Burn!

More Dragons

The original trailer gave us our first look at Daenerys’ (Emilia Clarke) flying dragons, but this extended trailer — as its very nature suggests — gives us an extended look at her winged kiddos.

Jon Snow’s Doubt

We may have faith in Jon Snow (Kit Harington), but the bastard son of Ned Stark doesn’t appear to share our confidence in himself.

“I want to fight for the side that fights for the living,” he says in the extended trailer. “Did I come to the right place?”

So Much Sex

Game of Thrones never shies away from an opportunity for nudity, so it should come as no surprise that the extended trailer features a few quick shots of the lovers of Westeros — including Jon and Ygritte (Rose Leslie).

“Death is coming for everyone and everything” isn’t something you normally hear on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, except on Feb. 22 when Jimmy Kimmel — an unlikely vessel, but I’ll take it — premiered the first official trailer for Games of Thrones‘ upcoming third season. It’s a full, solid minute of pure gold, topped off with a sweet flying dragon. (Those things are growing like crazy.)

‘Game Of Thrones’ Season 3 Trailer Observations

0:01 “It’s been a long time, my old friends.” (Yeah, thanks for reminding us.)

0:05 I know enough about the wall to know that no one should ever climb it. Who does this guy think he is?

0:12 “Death is coming for everyone and everything.” Was that Melisandre (Carice van Houten)? Whoever it was, that would make such a dark greeting card.

0:16 Is that Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright) shooting an arrow? I’d like to see him do it standing up!

0:22 Seeing Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) with her huge army gave me my first chills of the trailer — besides when it started.

0:25 ”Show them how it feels to lose what they love.” I don’t know who Catelyn (Michelle Fairley) is talking about, but if it’s a Lannister, I’m all for it. You can’t have too many dead Lannisters.

0:28 “I’m going to light the biggest fire the north has ever seen!” I’m glad he’s on Game of Thrones now, but seeing Cirián Hinds just makes me miss Political Animals.

0:34 ”Everyone is mine to torment.” So, in case you were wondering, Joffrey (Jack Gleeson) is still a mega-turd.

0:44 Who’s that hooking up? Looks hot!

0:45 Flying dragons! Medium-sized flying dragons! This gave me my second/third round of chills.

0:49 Just when you think Daenerys can’t look any more badass… insert flames?
