Emilia Clarke says the final season of 'Game of Thrones' will "shock people", as she teased the ending to the popular show.

When Ryan Seacrest interviewed the Solo: A Star Wars Story actress on the Oscars red carpet she was asked how she thought people would react to the final Game of Thrones episode would be. Clarke had just one word: "Shock."

"Not enthusiastic, not pleased, but shocked?" Seacrest responded.

"It's going to be huge, that much everyone needs to know," she said. "It took us a long time to film this one for a very good reason. But I think there's going to be some things...I know there's going to be some things in this last season that will shock people."

Clarke then revealed she didn't remove anything from the set after filming finished because she's "a goody two-shoes," and she was being watched "all the time."

"I tried to throw some things under the wig, hide them in my bag, nothing," she said. "Apparently the throne itself you can't...I was there pushing it trying to get it in the car. It didn't fit, so what are you gonna do?"

One thing she'll always have to remember her stint of the fantasy drama is a tattoo to remind her of her role as the Mother of Dragons. Clarke showed off the body art depicting three dragons flying on her right wrist last in September.

Game of Thrones returns Sunday, April 14 on Sky Atlantic for the six feature-length episodes that make up its final season.
