The Nicest Moments from Game of Thrones That Led to the Worst
List Rules Vote for the most heartwarming moments that were followed up with daggers to the heart (sometimes literally!)
If you’re caught up with Game of Thrones, read away. If not, you've been warned: The night is dark and full of spoilers.
Oh, Game of Thrones. You so love to have a tender moment turn horrible. Game of Thrones fans have come to expect that if someone is having a good time, things are probably going to turn violent pretty soon. Weddings are not happy occasions in this realm. Forget a goodbye kiss or even a friendly chat. Things can turn on a dime at any given moment.
Viewers have taken to clutching a blanket or a loved one or a pet during a scene that may seem innocuous on any other show. Why? Game of Thrones is one of the most jump-out-of-the-bushes stab tests that one must brace for. Whenever you see someone working it out, actually making love, or simply attending a wedding, hardened Game of Thrones fans will run behind the nearest piece of sturdy furniture with their wine and take a huge gulp. They know better.
We've gathered up the "aww" moments that turned awful in hopes that newbies will learn that there is no such thing as real joy in the Seven Kingdoms. Unless you are the Many-Faced God, Varys, or Littlefinger, hold on tight, you are never not going to say, "Well, that escalated quickly."
We see Sam and Gilly ride out of the gates and then later that night, it all goes horribly wrong for Jon.
