Welcome to another exciting installment of EW's Game of Thrones podcast. I am senior writer Darren Franich.

And I am editor at large, James Hibbard.

We have so much to talk about this week about the episode.

The title was Oathbreaker.

Now, James, each week on Game of Thrones,

sometimes we lose people, sometimes we lose lots of people.

This week, though,

I think it's fair to say, surely the most tragic passing in the show's history. How do we feel about the loss of Shaggy Dog? You know, we've gotten to know Shaggy Dog so well over so many episodes.

We've seen so much action and adventure with Shaggy Dog, saving the day so many times, and now Shaggy Dog is, you know, sadly no more.

We saw the head of Shaggy Dog in the midst of a reintroduction of characters who some people may have even just forgotten because it's been, I believe, close to three years since we've seen them.

But just when you thought that Ramsey Bolton's position could not be any more horrifying,

somebody kind of put it out online that we've seen him kill babies.

And this week there was the head of a cute puppyish dire wolf in his throne room.

So just a generally not likable guy. But now he's in a major

position to do horrible things to another character because Rikon and Oshah have rejoined the show.

You know, we can only hope that Ramsey has learned a thing or two about torturing prisoners

after its experience with Sanzah and Theon, but he probably hasn't, right?

First of all, I mean, great to see Rickon again. He, like Brand, has clearly aged about 10 years in the past six months, but you had to just feel so freaked out for him and for OSHA, too. I mean, I've been sure you to know what you think, James. OSHA was really one of the characters who in the book I had never really paid much attention to.

And in her time on the show in kind of late season one through season three,

she became such a kind of vibrant part of the story up north.
