What a way to end "Game of Thrones" Season 5, right? Jon Snow gets stabbed multiple times by his fellow brothers in the Night's Watch and Olly delivers the fatal blow. The camera stays trained on his face as we see more blood pool up in the snow. There's no gasp of air, no whisper of "Ghost" and no other clue that Jon Snow could have survived. Despite zero evidence -- and countless denials -- everyone assumes Jon Snow is coming back.

Emilia Clarke was interviewed by MTV and of course Jon Snow's fate was discussed. She claims to be a terrible liar and has not been given any details about what to expect for next season, but she does have some favorable odds for his return. "Looking forward, they know that I can't lie very well. I can with all honesty say I have no idea what's happening," Clarke said in the interview.



The helpful people Clarke is referring to are probably Melisandre, the Red Witch who ditched Stannis and arrived at Castle Black before Jon's death, and Bran with his magical abilities. Melisandre's powers have been in question recently, especially after Stannis failed so horribly against the Boltons. The sacrifice of his daughter, Shireen, was supposed to turn the tides in his favor and he was proclaimed to be Azor Ahai -- the Lord of Light's champion -- reborn.

Even if Kit Harington cut his hair, that wouldn't prove Jon Snow is truly dead. A shorter 'do could differentiate Jon Snow from Jon Targaryen or Jon Stark or Azor Ahai or whatever name David Benioff and Dan Weiss decide on for the revived character. Schrodinger's Jon Snow -- the actor is alive and dead at the same time -- has been the source of consternation since 2011's "A Dance With Dragons."

There's just so much evidence that points to the importance of Jon Snow that it would be an incredible twist if he were truly dead. The series creators also spent a lot of time in Season 5 shaping the history regarding Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark. Next season could feature a Tower of Joy flashback that could confirm the R+L = J theory and reveal Jon Snow's parents.

It's likely we won't have to wait too long and should get answers in April when "Game of Thrones" Season 6 is likely to premiere. The show has to deal with the aftermath of Jon's death and it seems unlikely -- and too cruel -- for Benioff and Wiess to wait until the final season of "Game of Thrones" to reveal Jon's fate.
