After episode 2 left us breathless by breathing new life into Jon Snow, there's no telling what other surprises await us on Season 6. 

And as we learned when HBO attempted to tell us what episodes 2 and 3 would be about, the network certainly is in no rush to tell us more.

Don't let that stop you from trying to decode the following episode 4 and 5 descriptions anyway, though: 

Season 6, Episode 4: "Book of the Stranger" (airs Sunday, May 15)

Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) strikes a deal. Jorah (Iain Glen) and Daario (Michiel Huisman) undertake a difficult task. Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) and Cersei (Lena Headey) try to improve their situation.


Season 6, Episode 5: "The Door" (airs Sunday, May 22)

Tyrion seeks a strange ally. Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright) learns a great deal. Brienne (Gwendoline Christie) goes on a mission. Arya (Maisie Williams) is given a chance to prove herself.

A few early thoughts: Still no mention of Kit Harrington's Jon Snow, despite the fact that we now know he's returned from the dead, which tells us even HBO's Department of Vaguest Teases Ever couldn't even find a way to say what he's up to. That's exciting. 

Second, while there's no telling exactly what it means to "prove" yourself, we're betting it's going to be dangerous and terrifying for poor Arya. 

Also, does this "mission" Brienne is going on make you think what we're thinking? Riverlands!

Hit us with more speculation in the comments.
