The Game of Thrones Cast Crashed Kit Harington's SNL Monologue to Demand Answers About Season 8

Everyone wants to know how the upcoming final season of Game of Thrones is going to pan out, especially when it comes to who's going to wind up sitting on the Iron Throne itself. With the show's premiere scheduled exactly a week away on Sunday, April 14, you can bet that Saturday Night Live is getting in on the hype. Kit Harington, who plays Jon Snow on Game of Thrones, hosted the show last night (April 6)—and as part of his opening monologue, he found himself having to field some questions about the show from the audience. As it turns out, he knew a few of his interrogators quite well: Some of his present—and former—cast members were there to demand answers, too.

Emilia Clarke, who plays Daenerys Targaryen on the show, popped up to ask Harington to give her “a sense of how it ends." Clarke's character is one of the relatively few that hasn't yet been killed off, and Harington reminded her that she did, in fact, know what was going on in the show's last season.

"Well, yeah, but I forgot," she quipped. "It’s been so damn long since the last season, plus a lot of my scenes are talking to a dragon, which is just a tennis ball on a green pole. I have no idea what’s actually happening.”

She also joked about the fact that their characters had hooked up during the show's sixth season. “Did you know they filmed that?” she asked.

John Bradley, a.k.a. Samwell Tarly, also had a question for Harington. He told Harington he'd only been able to glimpse two pages of the season eight script, and all Tarly said was, "Arghhh." Harington asked him what had come before that line in the script. “Dragon opens mouth,” Bradley replied.

Naturally, the Night King was also in the audience (played on SNL by Pete Davidson), and it seemed like he was feeling a little down about it all. He asked Harington if people actually hate him (“because it really feels like people hate me”) and if they could still be friends when the show was over. "We were never friends," Harington responded.

Rose Leslie, whose character played Snow's love interest until she was killed off (and who, in real life, is now married to Harington), also stood up to ask a question. After Harington told her that he was still sworn to secrecy about all things regarding the show's final episodes, Leslie told him that she didn't care because she "wasn't a nerd." Instead, she had a more pressing concern.

“My question is, what are we going to do for money now?” she said. “We didn’t save anything, and you kept telling me, ‘Oh I’m the King of the North, we can order UberEats every night.”
