The fifth episode of the ongoing sixth season of the medieval fantasy TV show unraveled the mystery of Hodor’s impaired conversational skills. The character just had one dialogue in the entire show and that was to say “Hodor”.

The climax of episode explained the giant’s past and also why he is only able to say his name, which is actually a command - “Hold the door”.

Putting sad emoticons on her official account on Twitter, Alia shared “#HoldTheDoor #Hodor #GameofThrones”.

Varun was also disappointed with the death of Hodor. He shared: “#HoldTheDoor #Hodor”, whereas actor-comedian Vir Das tweeted: “Game of thrones....kinda losing the plot”.

Tanmay Bhat, member of stand-up comedy group All India Bakchod (AIB), decoded the death sequence for twitterati.
