"Beyond the Wall" is the sixth episode of the seventh season of HBO's fantasy television series Game of Thrones, and the 66th overall. It was written by series co-creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, and directed by Alan Taylor. At 70 minutes, it was the series' longest episode until the airing of the season's finale.

Beyond the Wall, Jon Snow (Kit Harington) leads a raiding party to capture a wight to bring south as evidence of the White Walkers. After successfully capturing one, the group is besieged by the White Walker army. Gendry (Joe Dempsie) is commanded to return to Eastwatch and send a raven to Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) to request her help. Before the group can be killed by the wights, Daenerys arrives and begins lighting the wights on fire with her three dragons. In an attempt to stop her, the Night King, the leader of the White Walkers, throws his ice spear at one of Daenerys's dragons, Viserion, and kills it. Daenerys flies off, along with the northern raiding party, but is unable to save Jon. Benjen Stark (Joseph Mawle) arrives and fights off the wights in order for Jon to escape, and Jon and Daenerys are reunited. The Night King raises Viserion from the dead, making the dragon a part of his army. At Winterfell, Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) confronts Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) following her discovery of the letter she sent as a child begging for fealty to King Joffrey Baratheon, and Sansa discovers Arya's bag of faces she took from Braavos.
