so why couldn't Ned tell Catelyn?
I'm guessing he promised to tell no one. Honorable to a fault.
Also, when Ned and Caitlyn got married, it was an arranged thing. He might not have trusted her for a while.

so wait,Jon is the son of Ned and Liana?
Dying from a septic wound after being drugged by cersi?
Nope.
Hopefully HBO does a Witcher TV show or a prequel to GoT.
Dude shut up.
Unless you're just guessing
Wait Jon is Ned and Lyannas kid.....I thought Jon had Targaryen blood according to that scene
Wow I just realized that there is a Cersei prophesy from the show, and then there is an extra part of Cersei's prophesy that was only found in the books. Not specifically talking about either one, but some really poorly written articles on the front page of google news are talking about the whole prophesy from the books and the show together without pointing out that they are doing so or even mentioning the books at all. So it's easy to be unintentionally spoiled like I was... eh not a huge spoiler to me. I don't want to talk about the books, and I haven't read them, but I did want to warn people to be careful if they are trying to avoid book spoilers like I am.
Jon IS Aerys and Lyanna's kid.
You're right. Lyanna's child was with Daenerys's older brother. It was just funny to me that my family (and apparently others here) interpreted that scene as Ned and Lyanna being intimate together and that being their baby.Wait Jon is Ned and Lyannas kid.....I thought Jon had Targaryen blood according to that scene

Jon is the child of Rhaegar and Lyanna. Their relationship might have been rape but was more likely a consensual forbidden affair.
Who's next?? Smart money feels like Melisandre...
Are you sure Jon isn't an incest baby? Maybe Rhaegar kidnapped Lyanna to protect her from her rapist brother. That might explain why Ned was so violent and killed all the kingsguard to get to her. Even resorting to backstabbing someone. It could be he isn't as honorable as we thought!
I thought the father was Rhaegar
nope.
for anyone wondering who Jon's father was, here is a good video that was posted in this thread earlier, with show only scenes from past seasons

I thought the father was Rhaegar
Lol that wasn't a serious post.Possible, but there was some foreshadowing with Maester Aemon at castle black about the Targaryens and then Jon showing up right as he finishes his monologue about it.

I feel like the show has only revealed that John is Lyanna's child. The father is most likely Rhaegar I guess based on everything in the show so far but IMO the show hasn't specifically revealed that yet.
Witcher TV show........no thank you. It would be like.a Stannis spin off series with how dull Geralt is.
Little finger said to Sansa " a bastard born in the south " .... something along the lines about being born in the south.
He already knew .
The more I think about the small dialog the better interactions become. Also, foretelling of what is about to happen. SO GOOOOOOD@!@!
I keep seeing people predicting Arya killing Mel... why? I don't think she is on her list, right? (They are due to meet again though, as per Mel herself)
The war was down in Dorne. That doesn't reveal much, since that's where Ned supposedly had his affair while at war.
Yeah the idea of Ned doing that is ridiculous to put it lightly.
Well we know it isn't Robert with what Lyanna told Ned.
"If Robert finds out he'll kill him, you know he will, you have to protect him."
ok,that explain the "R+L" thing.
but why ned said that was his son?

That is all, 2017 can't come soon enough.I don't really get why Ned simply said that Jon was his nephew, it would have made everything much simpler for everyone.
The father is Rhaegar.
I thought this was pretty well explained in the show... I guess there is room for confusion, apparently.
Yeah, just like his "father' :\ People who don't play the game have been brutally rekt in this show, including Jon getting stabbed by half the people whose lives he saved weeks earlier. Had he played the game, he would have offed their leader and never died. He will also likely need Sansa to save his ass next season. Jon has done dumb shit and gotten away with it through others helping him on many occasions.Jon is the only one not truly playing the game. Maybe that's why he'll win. Seems the story they've been telling all along.
Why didn't Jon take the surname of Sand (or whatever is down South)?
