Speculation on Jon & Tyrion's parenthood - non book readers

    The flashback fight between young Ned Stark & the 2 members of the kings guard.

    The kings son had kidnapped Ned's sister and imprisoned her in that tower.. (we heard her scream & Ned asking where she is)....

    The long held assumption being that that Prince Rahegar fathered a child with Lyanna Stark after kidnapping her & this is Jon.
    Lyanna died & it is supposed that Ned brought this boy to Winterfell on the pretense that it was his own bastard child.

    Hence the R+L=J theory

    TBH, I think this also holds weight because if Jon is half Targaryen, he's the nephew of Denerys & could well be an ally.
    (Handy way to avoid the certain war between the North/Starks & Danny when she eventually gets to Westeros)

    Yeah I know the theory but not sure that scene definitely proves it.

    The scenes very existence is getting us there....
    I think the actor playing young Ned is cast for at least 1 more episode.

    If we see him cradling a baby boy I think we can stick a fork in Jon's lineage.

    I think it's unlikely simply because it seems very likely that Jon is a Targaryen and it would be a bit lame to pull the "secret Targaryen" trick twice.

    The absence of a newborn baby with ned and Reed at that point is a bit of a giveaway I think.

    That scene struck me as a cliff hangar, and as someone here said that young Ned is cast for one more episode, I expect the missing piece of the puzzle will be presented.

    What I'm curious about though, is how will this be made known to Jon.

    Well bran is on route south of the wall, I expect he'll meet up with big bro/ cousin at some point early next season and reveal all. How to convince the rest of the realm is another issue....

    Is Reed still alive?

    Ah right, didn't realise they were going south again.
