12 Times Game of Thrones Sneakily Foreshadowed the Future

Like Jaime Lannister, it's almost hard to remember a time when we despised Theon Greyjoy because we've been feeling sorry for the guy for so long. Back in season two, Theon betrays the Starks during the War of the Five Kings and seizes control of Winterfell along with some of his men from the Iron Islands. Not cool.

Unfortunately, Theon's "best-laid" plans don't pan out too well, and the castle is soon surrounded by the much larger Bolton army. He's urged to surrender by Maester Luwin, but Theon is desperate to maintain an image of strength in front of his people. He tells Maester Luwin that surrendering would make him look like a "fool and a eunuch" to the Ironborn forever.

In the following season, after the Boltons take control of Winterfell and kill Theon's men, Ramsay Bolton takes Theon prisoner and literally turns him into a eunuch.
