HBO made a lot of fans very happy with the second episode of the sixth season, "Home."

Fans not only got their answer to the biggest question of this season, about Jon Snow's (Kit Harington) fate, but they also saw a few other big theories take root.

No doubt, several big moments will stand out for fans. But what about the ones that you may have missed?

No worries, Business Insider has your back.

Hey, Jon Snow said that once.

As part of Bran's (Isaac Hempstead-Wright) teachings, "Thrones" did a rare flashback. In it, Ned Stark is teaching his brother sword fighting when he tells him, "Keep your shield up, or I'll ring your head like a bell." In the behind-the-episode segment, the producers said they did this to help reset the stakes and to remind Bran what he's going through is for.

We've heard that line before, though. Jon Snow (Kit Harington) said the very same thing to Olly (Brenock O'Connor) last season while training him. This could be taken as an early foreshadowing of Jon's return.



Who were those Stark loyalists?

As Davos (Liam Cunningham) and the other men prepared to defend Jon Snow's body from his Night's Watch enemies, Edd (Ben Crompton) returned just in time with some backup. He was joined by the Wildlings, with whom Jon Snow had forged an alliance. They were led by Free Folk leader Tormund (Kristofer Hivju) and a very helpful Wun Weg Wun Dar Wun (Ian Whyte), the giant.



Fans actually hate Ramsay more than Joffrey.

Ramsay Bolton (Iwan Rheon) definitely made some big moves on this episode, and they aren't going to win him the most popular prize from fans. He killed his father, but eh, the guy was terrible anyway. But in order to safeguard his claim to the throne, he also killed his newly born half-brother and his mother.

There's a special place for baby killers, and it's called Twitter:
