Most "Game of Thrones" fans know that episode titles and the brief descriptions included can often give major hints about the show's contents. 

On Monday, following the premiere of "The Red Woman," HBO released official descriptions for the next two episodes. 

Episode two — "Home" — premieres Sunday May 1.

Bran trains with the Three-Eyed Raven. In King’s Landing, Jaime advises Tommen. Tyrion demands good news, but has to make his own. At Castle Black, the Night’s Watch stands behind Thorne. Ramsay Bolton proposes a plan, and Balon Greyjoy entertains other proposals.

Episode three — "Oathbreaker" — airs on Sunday May 8.

Daenerys meets her future. Bran meets the past. Tommen confronts the High Sparrow. Arya trains to be No One. Varys finds an answer. Ramsay gets a gift.

So, what does this mean? Based on the video preview for "Home," we know we'll see Bran (and probably some visions). Jaime appears to be having a tense conversation with the High Sparrow, and it seems as though he is going to push Tommen towards confrontation. 

Tyrion's demand for good news might be his desire to know who is leading the Sons of the Harpy. Again, the preview video shows us Tyrion in the dragon pen. Will he release the dragons?

Ramsay's proposal is likely for the attack on Castle Black. Do they know about the wildings yet though? It could be hard to march from Winterfell to Castle Black and not attract the attention of the wildlings.

Daenerys meeting the future in episode three is surely her arrival to Vaes Dothrak, the Dothraki city where she is traditionally supposed to live out her days as a khal's widow. 

Jon Snow, Davos and Melisandre are not mentioned in either of the episodes. This could mean we don't see a resolution to Jon's fate in these episodes, but our money is on his resurrection happening in either "Home" or "Oathbreaker." 

Why? The line about Bran "meeting the past" in episode three makes us think we'll see the iconic "Tower of Joy" flashback — a scene that fans believe will reveal Jon Snow's true parentage. All bets are on this being a huge episode.
