Game of Thrones, Episode 1: Winter is Coming
Hodor’s Role in the Episode
Hodor makes his debut in this episode, but his role is extremely minor and lacks any meaningful contribution to the plot or character development. He appears briefly among the assembled members of Winterfell during King Robert’s arrival, but does not speak and has no direct interaction with the other characters.

- Hodor is seen standing alongside the Starks, Rodrik, Jory, and Luwin, waiting for King Robert and his entourage to arrive.
- He does not engage in any dialogue or action.
- His presence serves only as an introduction for viewers, giving a visual glimpse of the character before he becomes more prominent later in the series.
