The cast of "Revenge" (ABC)

"Revenge" fans get ready, because in a matter of mere days our favorite Hamptons'-based suspense drama is returning to our weekly TV line-up. In preparation, re-watching season two's finale "Truth" is a must. You can check out a recap here!

Every episode of ABC's "Revenge" packs tons of drama, like no other mainstream show I've followed. In perfect "Revenge" fashion, season two's two-part finale was insane. Here are the top ten shocking events from "Truth" that set up season three for DRAMA. Refresh yourself and get excited. 

#10. Conrad is Governor of NY. If we thought Victoria was evil, season two's finale revealed that Conrad is truly the worse of the two. He used the deadly (and premeditated) explosion on Grayson Global as a way to garner positive press attention for himself- disgusting. And on top of it all now claims "The Initiative" never even existed- that it is simply a group of masterminds using public disasters to profit. With these revelations it seems Victoria has been completely in the dark. Now that he's in a position of such political power, what will Conrad be capable of?

#9. Charlotte is pregnant. Just like her mother who became pregnant as a teenager, Charlotte now finds herself with child. And sadly, the baby's father will not be involved.

#8. Daniel may have killed Aiden. At Conrad's acceptance speech, Daniel arrives with blood on his shirt, suggesting a seriously violent altercation with Aiden had just occurred. Did Daniel finally do away with Aiden? If so, how will this effect his relationship with Emily?

#7. Takeda is dead. Up until this point, Takeda has been Emily's mentor, trainer and teacher, helping to steer her every revenge move. Who will she look to now?

#6. Emily and Daniel are re-engaged. They talked about moving to Paris, and even threatened to take Charlotte with them. That is all highly unlikely now given the Grayson Global explosion. Or it is? More importantly, is Emily developing feelings for Daniel again?

#5. Declan is dead. In addition to being Charlotte's love and the father of her unborn baby, Declan was Jack's only living family member other than baby Carl. Declan's death is untimely and will have many repercussions. 

#4. Jack is on the war path for Conrad. Now attributing two deeply personal deaths to Conrad Grayson- his wife Amanda and now his brother Declan, Jack is determined to take Conrad down. Though Emily seems to have stalled him at the acceptance speech, there's no telling what Jack will do. And what will happen when the Graysons realize Jack is still alive?

#3. Nolan is being held on suspicions of terrorism. The show's beloved and perfectly coiffed Nolan has been apprehended by the FBI for his connection to Carrion. In custody he learns that Padma was plotting against him the entire time they were together, and even identified Nolan as a terrorist. With so much evidence stacked against him, how will Nolan clear his name? And what will Emily do without him in the meantime? Nolan!

#2. Victoria's secret son has appeared! In a final scene at Grayson Manor, the doorbell rings and a male voice is identified as Victoria's long lost son Patrick. What will his return mean for Victoria?

#1. Jack knows Emily's real identity!! It took two complete seasons for the secret we've all been waiting for to be revealed. As Jack (wearing a disguise) held up a gun to assassinate Conrad, Emily stood in the line of fire, saying all of Jack's pain has been her fault, finally identifying herself as Amanda Clarke! Flashing back to childhood, Jack recalls Amanda in an emotional moment. What will Jack do now that he knows Emily is really Amanda? This is the moment we've all been waiting for. Let the next phase commence!

Other characters to keep in mind:

- Emily's mom. She's still out there, right? And 100% crazy.

- Ashley Davenport. She's becoming less and less loyal to Conrad and always a bit of a wild card.

- Emily's foster brother. He caused drama in season two. He'll likely be back.

- Padma. This chick is some serious trouble. I never trusted her! Is she going to finally fall off the radar or keep causing problems for our Nolan?

- Regina. This party-girl classmate of Charlotte revealed her secret sapphic feelings for her- saying she'd even like to raise the baby with Charlotte. Now that Declan's out of the picture, will she make a reappearance?
