Game of Thrones used some familiar tactics in the most recent episode of season six, but fans are still loving both those moments, as well as a few others that were a bit unexpected from the May 15 episode.

The fourth episode of the season, titled "Book of the Stranger," saw several sibling reunions, one somewhat gratuitous death, a fiery return, and one genuine moment of unexpected levity, in an episode which was packed with storylines from all over Westeros and the lands beyond it. Here are some of the best Twitter reactions to those moments:

A Stark Reunion:

After years apart when they left Winterfell for lives in King's Landing and as a part of the Night's Watch, Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) and Jon Snow (Kit Harington) were reunited.

Theon Returns To The Iron Islands

After being tortured by Ramsay (Iwan Rheon), an escaped Theon goes home to his sister Yara (Gemma Whelan). And unfortunately, she can't give him back what Ramsay took from him, nor does she seem like she wanted to even if she could.

Margaery Realizes What She Has To Do

After being allowed to see her fellow prisoner, brother Loras (Finn Jones), Margaery (Natalie Dormer) realizes what she must do to defeat the High Sparrow.


RIP Ramsay's Latest Victim

Without Sansa and Theon, Ramsay needs someone to inflict torture on, and was given the perfect gift of a captured Rickon (Art Parkinson) and Osha (Natalia Tena). On the bright side for Osha, torture wasn't something Ramsay saw fit for her. Unfortunately for Osha, death was.

Of Course Dany Doesn't Need To Be Rescued

"Oh hi Daario ( Michiel Huisman) and Jorah (Iain Glen), you came all the way to Vaes Dothrak to try and rescue me? Well, I, Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) already have a familiar plan in place that's going to get me out of here anyway. "
