["If I Had A Heart" Playing]

00:00:02,629 --> 00:00:08,719
<i>More, give me more
Give me more</i>

3
00:00:12,973 --> 00:00:16,935
<i>If I had a heart
I could love you</i>

4
00:00:18,562 --> 00:00:22,232
<i>If I had a voice
I would sing</i>

5
00:00:24,193 --> 00:00:28,280
<i>After the night
When I wake up</i>

6
00:00:29,239 --> 00:00:33,035
<i>I'll see
What tomorrow brings</i>

00:00:35,537 --> 00:00:37,247
[vocalizing]

00:00:41,084 --> 00:00:44,463
<i>If I had a voice
I would sing</i>

9
00:00:52,012 --> 00:00:53,931
- [horn blaring]
- [man 1] A ship in the harbor!

10
00:00:55,140 --> 00:00:56,683
[man 2] Janus!

11
00:00:56,767 --> 00:00:58,393
[chattering]

12
00:00:59,144 --> 00:01:00,520
[horn blaring]

13
00:01:02,314 --> 00:01:04,441
[man 3] Hurry! To the water!

14
00:01:05,901 --> 00:01:06,901
[man 4] Here!

15
00:01:14,534 --> 00:01:15,619
[horn continues blaring]

16
00:01:19,998 --> 00:01:20,998
[woman] It's one ship!

17
00:01:22,167 --> 00:01:23,167
What is it?

18
00:01:25,003 --> 00:01:26,964
Uh, it's a Rus ship.

19
00:01:28,465 --> 00:01:29,841
There's only a single ship.

20
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,807
Then escort it into the harbor.

21
00:01:47,734 --> 00:01:50,195
[Hvitserk] So, we're home.

22
00:01:52,531 --> 00:01:53,949
What are you thinking about, huh?

23
00:01:55,993 --> 00:01:58,578
That this might be a mistake,
after all.

24
00:02:02,708 --> 00:02:04,584
[man 1] Scum! Liar!

25
00:02:05,335 --> 00:02:06,962
[indistinct shouting]

26
00:02:09,464 --> 00:02:11,550
[man 2] You're a fool and a false god!

27
00:02:12,592 --> 00:02:14,469
[woman] You're a traitor and a coward!

28
00:02:15,053 --> 00:02:16,053
[man 3] Spineless!

29
00:02:17,514 --> 00:02:18,640
Scum!

30
00:02:27,316 --> 00:02:28,316
[man 4] Traitor!

31
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:29,985
[man 5] Go back, you swine!

32
00:02:32,821 --> 00:02:33,779
You pigs!

33
00:02:33,780 --> 00:02:34,948
Traitor!

34
00:02:37,784 --> 00:02:38,784
[man 6] Liar!

35
00:02:41,538 --> 00:02:42,622
[crowd quiets]

36
00:02:55,761 --> 00:02:56,928
Follow me.

37
00:02:57,971 --> 00:02:59,556
I'll take you to King Harald.

38
00:03:03,894 --> 00:03:04,936
King Harald?

39
00:03:34,424 --> 00:03:36,802
[breathing heavily]

40
00:03:40,806 --> 00:03:41,932
All hail to you,

41
00:03:42,474 --> 00:03:43,934
King Harald Finehair.

42
00:03:46,436 --> 00:03:47,687
All hail.

43
00:03:50,524 --> 00:03:52,734
My wife, Queen Ingrid.

44
00:03:56,488 --> 00:03:57,781
Queen Ingrid.

45
00:03:59,116 --> 00:04:03,620
I hope that you will give safe passage
to the Rus sailors that brought us here.

46
00:04:04,496 --> 00:04:05,789
Of course.

47
00:04:06,873 --> 00:04:10,460
We didn't expect to find you here
enthroned, King Harald.

48
00:04:10,877 --> 00:04:13,964
And, for my part, I... [exhales]

49
00:04:14,047 --> 00:04:17,634
...never thought that
my first visitors would be you two.

50
00:04:20,220 --> 00:04:22,639
The gods work in mysterious ways.

51
00:04:23,682 --> 00:04:26,435
They do, indeed, Ivar, the Boneless.

52
00:04:30,230 --> 00:04:31,690
What brought you back?

53
00:04:31,982 --> 00:04:33,150
This is our home.

54
00:04:33,233 --> 00:04:34,568
You were fighting with the Rus.

55
00:04:34,651 --> 00:04:37,362
- To reclaim our home.
- From your own brother.

56
00:04:37,696 --> 00:04:39,030
Brothers fall out.

57
00:04:40,907 --> 00:04:43,452
They may even end up
fighting on different sides.

58
00:04:43,869 --> 00:04:46,037
You know that too well,

59
00:04:46,955 --> 00:04:47,956
King Harald.

60
00:04:54,087 --> 00:04:55,964
Many of the townsfolk hate you.

61
00:04:56,965 --> 00:04:59,593
As long as you remain here,
you will be in danger.

62
00:05:00,677 --> 00:05:03,722
We are the legitimate sons
of Ragnar Lothbrok.

63
00:05:03,889 --> 00:05:06,141
You can't tell me
that the people of Kattegat

64
00:05:06,224 --> 00:05:08,685
don't still revere
and worship our father.

65
00:05:09,060 --> 00:05:11,813
[Ivar] And if they're willing
to accept you as their king,

66
00:05:12,314 --> 00:05:16,359
surely they'll be willing to accept us
as your supporters.

67
00:05:16,860 --> 00:05:18,862
If you truly are my supporters.

68
00:05:24,409 --> 00:05:26,077
[breathes deeply]

69
00:05:27,329 --> 00:05:30,373
Your arrival may strengthen
my position here.

70
00:05:31,541 --> 00:05:34,628
Make it more legitimate, as you say.

71
00:05:39,257 --> 00:05:43,261
I think we should have a feast
to celebrate this new

72
00:05:43,803 --> 00:05:45,597
and unexpected accord.

73
00:05:46,056 --> 00:05:49,976
The sons of Ragnar have returned home
to support the new regime.

74
00:05:50,268 --> 00:05:52,938
All is well with the world. [chuckles]

75
00:05:54,481 --> 00:05:55,690
Wouldn't you agree?

76
00:06:08,578 --> 00:06:10,580
[woman coughing]

77
00:06:14,334 --> 00:06:15,335
[sighs]

78
00:06:36,064 --> 00:06:37,315
What are you doing?

79
00:06:38,817 --> 00:06:40,527
It's not for me, it's for my wife.

80
00:06:41,611 --> 00:06:43,321
She's sick. She needs some water.

81
00:06:45,490 --> 00:06:46,700
I'm sorry.

82
00:06:46,783 --> 00:06:49,578
We have to share the water equally.
We can't make exceptions.

83
00:06:50,370 --> 00:06:51,496
What if she dies?

84
00:06:53,707 --> 00:06:56,334
I'm sorry. There's no other way.

85
00:07:15,145 --> 00:07:16,605
[indistinct chatter]

86
00:07:34,998 --> 00:07:36,416
[chattering stops]

87
00:07:54,059 --> 00:07:55,977
[man] There's no shame
to come back here.

88
00:08:00,649 --> 00:08:01,858
[sniffs sharply]

89
00:08:06,696 --> 00:08:07,696
Tonight,

90
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:10,950
we have much to celebrate.

91
00:08:13,703 --> 00:08:17,165
Two of Ragnar's sons have returned home.

92
00:08:18,124 --> 00:08:20,251
They were free men,
they could have chosen

93
00:08:20,335 --> 00:08:22,170
to go anywhere in our world

94
00:08:22,253 --> 00:08:24,964
where their fame
would have guaranteed them

95
00:08:25,048 --> 00:08:27,217
a warm welcome.

96
00:08:27,300 --> 00:08:28,300
Instead,

97
00:08:28,968 --> 00:08:30,553
they returned to Kattegat,

98
00:08:31,179 --> 00:08:32,305
to their beginnings.

99
00:08:36,059 --> 00:08:37,644
I can see that...

100
00:08:39,229 --> 00:08:42,065
many of you are not
in favor of their return.

101
00:08:42,148 --> 00:08:43,733
[people jeering]

102
00:08:51,741 --> 00:08:54,661
You have... bitter memories.

103
00:08:55,495 --> 00:08:56,871
You feel betrayed.

104
00:08:56,955 --> 00:08:58,456
[people murmuring]

105
00:08:59,457 --> 00:09:00,750
But let me remind you

106
00:09:01,167 --> 00:09:04,129
that the gods always forgive each other.

107
00:09:04,921 --> 00:09:09,592
Well, not always. They couldn't forgive
Loki's murder of Balder, Odin's son.

108
00:09:09,676 --> 00:09:12,095
But the exception proves the rule!

109
00:09:12,387 --> 00:09:16,725
For the most parts, gods, being human,
understand human nature.

110
00:09:16,808 --> 00:09:20,186
They understand jealousy.
They understand ambition.

111
00:09:20,270 --> 00:09:23,106
They understand how people
who love each other

112
00:09:23,898 --> 00:09:27,652
can end up challenging, and sometimes
murdering those they love!

113
00:09:27,736 --> 00:09:31,239
I did it myself.
I killed my own brother!

114
00:09:32,657 --> 00:09:34,826
And I regret it every day!

115
00:09:35,660 --> 00:09:36,661
Every day.

116
00:09:41,583 --> 00:09:44,711
Ivar regrets... the way he ruled here.

117
00:09:45,545 --> 00:09:46,713
He was young.

118
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,176
The responsibility was too great

119
00:09:51,676 --> 00:09:54,387
and he forgot the lessons of his father.

120
00:09:57,098 --> 00:09:58,224
And his brother, Hvitserk,

121
00:09:59,350 --> 00:10:01,352
he never meant to kill Lagertha.

122
00:10:01,561 --> 00:10:04,522
How could he ever mean
to kill such a goddess?

123
00:10:04,606 --> 00:10:05,899
[people shouting]

124
00:10:06,983 --> 00:10:10,779
They have both
confessed their sorrows...

125
00:10:12,489 --> 00:10:13,698
and their mistakes.

126
00:10:16,618 --> 00:10:17,911
And they have come here...

127
00:10:19,496 --> 00:10:22,373
to be judged by their own people.

128
00:10:22,791 --> 00:10:24,209
They are who they are,

129
00:10:24,709 --> 00:10:27,420
but they are also sons of Ragnar.

130
00:10:29,380 --> 00:10:31,049
And we should be overjoyed

131
00:10:31,382 --> 00:10:33,885
that they have decided to come here

132
00:10:34,344 --> 00:10:36,721
and share their future with us.

133
00:10:36,805 --> 00:10:39,641
[people mumble indistinctly]

134
00:10:52,278 --> 00:10:53,571
So, tell us, Ivar,

135
00:10:54,697 --> 00:10:59,202
is it true you're a god,
like you told us?

136
00:11:14,467 --> 00:11:15,510
[grunts]

137
00:11:42,662 --> 00:11:43,662
[people gasping]

138
00:11:57,302 --> 00:11:59,345
- [laughs]
- [all laughing]

139
00:12:27,165 --> 00:12:28,165
[Ivar grunts]

140
00:12:38,885 --> 00:12:40,261
[traditional music playing]

141
00:12:52,982 --> 00:12:53,982
[Ivar] You did well.

142
00:12:54,901 --> 00:12:55,985
Well, thank you.

143
00:12:56,861 --> 00:12:58,237
I tried to speak the truth.

144
00:12:59,113 --> 00:13:01,074
No one's really interested in the truth.

145
00:13:01,574 --> 00:13:02,659
On the contrary.

146
00:13:02,909 --> 00:13:04,619
No. Hvitserk is right.

147
00:13:05,912 --> 00:13:07,705
This has nothing to do with the truth.

148
00:13:08,289 --> 00:13:10,917
You're all used to having
power and influence,

149
00:13:11,542 --> 00:13:13,503
but there can only be one king here.

150
00:13:14,754 --> 00:13:15,880
And in times of peace,

151
00:13:16,089 --> 00:13:18,591
and if the Rus do not
intend to attack us again,

152
00:13:19,342 --> 00:13:20,468
what will you all do?

153
00:13:23,429 --> 00:13:25,223
You are men who are easily bored.

154
00:13:26,474 --> 00:13:28,643
Who crave excitements and challenges.

155
00:13:29,644 --> 00:13:31,229
What is left for you to do...

156
00:13:32,188 --> 00:13:35,066
except to fall out and quarrel?

157
00:13:50,707 --> 00:13:51,958
[laughing]

158
00:13:58,589 --> 00:13:59,590
A good night?

159
00:14:01,884 --> 00:14:03,011
A great night.

160
00:14:04,095 --> 00:14:05,805
- Hail Ivar!
- Yes!

161
00:14:06,514 --> 00:14:07,515
Hail Ivar!

162
00:14:07,849 --> 00:14:09,517
- Hail Hvitserk!
- Hail Hvitserk!

163
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,769
- Hail Ragnar!
- Hail Ragnar!

164
00:14:11,853 --> 00:14:13,093
- Hail Ragnar!
- [both laughing]

165
00:14:29,245 --> 00:14:30,245
[metal clanking]

166
00:14:34,834 --> 00:14:36,210
What is it now, huh?

167
00:14:39,172 --> 00:14:40,172
I don't know.

168
00:14:40,798 --> 00:14:43,259
[scoffs] I don't know what to do.

169
00:14:48,222 --> 00:14:49,222
[exhales]

170
00:14:50,892 --> 00:14:52,060
What do you mean?

171
00:14:52,602 --> 00:14:55,438
I don't think my destiny, or yours,

172
00:14:56,606 --> 00:14:57,606
lies here.

173
00:14:59,067 --> 00:15:00,234
But then, on the other hand,

174
00:15:00,526 --> 00:15:02,695
I have no idea where I'm supposed to go.

175
00:15:05,656 --> 00:15:06,656
It feels...

176
00:15:07,825 --> 00:15:09,827
as if I'm in an open boat.

177
00:15:12,663 --> 00:15:13,831
Lost at sea,

178
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:15,666
with no land in sight.

179
00:15:16,793 --> 00:15:17,793
No purpose,

180
00:15:18,753 --> 00:15:20,922
no meaning to my voyage.

181
00:15:23,299 --> 00:15:24,759
Don't you ever feel the same?

182
00:15:28,846 --> 00:15:30,556
I've been lost for so long.

183
00:15:32,308 --> 00:15:34,018
I wouldn't recognize the alternative.

184
00:15:38,731 --> 00:15:39,731
[scoffs]

185
00:15:43,402 --> 00:15:44,612
[fire crackling]

186
00:15:57,125 --> 00:15:58,251
Tell me, Othere,

187
00:15:59,585 --> 00:16:00,865
what are your earliest memories?

188
00:16:02,672 --> 00:16:05,133
I don't remember anything
about my early life.

189
00:16:07,176 --> 00:16:08,177
That's impossible.

190
00:16:10,721 --> 00:16:11,764
Very well, then.

191
00:16:14,433 --> 00:16:17,019
I hated everything about my childhood.

192
00:16:18,229 --> 00:16:19,438
I could not wait to grow up.

193
00:16:20,148 --> 00:16:21,148
To be older.

194
00:16:22,108 --> 00:16:24,527
To choose who I wanted to be.

195
00:16:27,196 --> 00:16:28,239
But you were Viking.

196
00:16:30,491 --> 00:16:31,491
That's what you told us.

197
00:16:32,410 --> 00:16:34,162
I told you so that you would be happy.

198
00:16:35,246 --> 00:16:37,415
You could know me. Place me.

199
00:16:38,791 --> 00:16:40,042
I don't need to be comforted.

200
00:16:40,877 --> 00:16:42,044
Are you sure?

201
00:16:43,838 --> 00:16:46,507
I am growing tired of your games...

202
00:16:47,758 --> 00:16:49,969
and your refusal to be honest.

203
00:16:52,138 --> 00:16:54,557
I look around and I see the truth.

204
00:16:56,309 --> 00:16:57,309
Where we are,

205
00:16:58,269 --> 00:16:59,395
what has become of us.

206
00:17:01,898 --> 00:17:04,483
Don't tell me that you're beginning
to lose your faith, Ubbe.

207
00:17:05,693 --> 00:17:06,693
Not you.

208
00:17:07,403 --> 00:17:08,738
Surely not you.

209
00:17:27,048 --> 00:17:29,759
[sniffling]

210
00:17:39,518 --> 00:17:40,686
What happened?

211
00:17:41,437 --> 00:17:42,437
He died in the night.

212
00:17:44,190 --> 00:17:46,776
His mother told me
he'd been drinking sea water.

213
00:17:50,154 --> 00:17:51,781
[crying]

214
00:18:00,039 --> 00:18:01,039
May I give him this?

215
00:18:01,791 --> 00:18:03,292
[sobs]

216
00:18:05,461 --> 00:18:06,963
[sniffles]

217
00:18:12,593 --> 00:18:14,303
[chanting in Latin]

218
00:18:16,264 --> 00:18:17,640
[continues crying]

219
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:23,771
There is so little food.

220
00:18:24,689 --> 00:18:25,690
So little water.

221
00:18:27,775 --> 00:18:29,402
That poor boy is just the first of many.

222
00:18:31,445 --> 00:18:32,445
I know.

223
00:18:59,181 --> 00:19:01,434
[Ivar] I have been away, O Ancient One.

224
00:19:03,019 --> 00:19:05,146
[Seer] Oh, I have watched you.

225
00:19:06,272 --> 00:19:09,400
Though blind, do you imagine
that I don't see?

226
00:19:15,489 --> 00:19:17,491
I'm not sure I should have returned.

227
00:19:18,868 --> 00:19:21,912
Harald is suspicious
that I have come to overthrow him.

228
00:19:23,372 --> 00:19:24,372
Perhaps I should,

229
00:19:25,499 --> 00:19:28,127
since I despise
the thought of serving him.

230
00:19:28,210 --> 00:19:29,337
[Seer chuckles]

231
00:19:31,130 --> 00:19:32,130
Poor Ivar.

232
00:19:33,382 --> 00:19:35,301
Connecting nothing with nothing.

233
00:19:37,887 --> 00:19:39,305
Think of your father.

234
00:19:40,348 --> 00:19:41,390
Sat here,

235
00:19:42,350 --> 00:19:44,060
dreaming his dreams,

236
00:19:45,686 --> 00:19:48,356
of places beyond all this.

237
00:19:49,857 --> 00:19:51,233
Don't you remember?

238
00:19:55,071 --> 00:19:56,447
Then here is not my fate.

239
00:19:56,989 --> 00:19:58,532
[Seer] I cannot advise you.

240
00:19:59,658 --> 00:20:03,537
But I saw in your pocket
a possible answer to your question.

241
00:20:07,500 --> 00:20:08,959
Ivar, the Boneless.

242
00:20:48,207 --> 00:20:49,417
[Hvitserk] <i>My dear brother.</i>

243
00:20:50,042 --> 00:20:52,628
<i>I have to congratulate you
on the manner of your death.</i>

244
00:20:52,837 --> 00:20:55,589
<i>It was very much
in keeping with your legend.</i>

245
00:20:56,298 --> 00:21:00,052
<i>How the High One must have celebrated
your arrival in his Great Hall.</i>

246
00:21:00,386 --> 00:21:03,264
<i>How the gods must have raised
their brimming horns</i>

247
00:21:03,681 --> 00:21:06,142
<i>to salute Bjorn Ironside,</i>

248
00:21:06,225 --> 00:21:07,435
<i>son of Ragnar.</i>

249
00:21:08,477 --> 00:21:09,645
<i>When I join you,</i>

250
00:21:10,271 --> 00:21:11,897
<i>there will be no celebrations.</i>

251
00:21:14,233 --> 00:21:16,569
Perhaps you would have
a kind word to me,

252
00:21:18,529 --> 00:21:20,239
but that would only make it worse.

253
00:21:21,782 --> 00:21:23,284
For we both know I'm not worthy.

254
00:21:24,994 --> 00:21:26,954
I haven't earned my place in Valhalla,

255
00:21:27,872 --> 00:21:30,166
and its doors
will only open to me because, I too,

256
00:21:30,791 --> 00:21:32,251
am a son of Ragnar Lothbrok.

257
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,048
What have I really done in life, huh?

258
00:21:39,216 --> 00:21:40,217
I was a drunk,

259
00:21:42,052 --> 00:21:43,053
a profligate.

260
00:21:45,473 --> 00:21:46,557
I abandoned Ubbe,

261
00:21:47,892 --> 00:21:49,059
the brother I loved the most.

262
00:21:51,687 --> 00:21:52,688
I killed Lagertha.

263
00:21:55,441 --> 00:21:59,069
The only two women I've ever loved
both met miserable ends.

264
00:22:03,032 --> 00:22:04,032
I never married,

265
00:22:05,951 --> 00:22:07,328
never had any children.

266
00:22:09,580 --> 00:22:12,458
[sniffles] I follow Ivar around
like his shadow,

267
00:22:14,251 --> 00:22:15,586
and I don't even know why.

268
00:22:20,966 --> 00:22:22,885
The gods must despise me.

269
00:22:23,844 --> 00:22:26,555
But you must know
all about this by now, Bjorn.

270
00:22:26,931 --> 00:22:28,557
You must hear their conversations,

271
00:22:29,683 --> 00:22:30,851
their laughter.

272
00:22:33,521 --> 00:22:36,774
Which is why a kind word from you
would only lacerate my soul.

273
00:22:39,109 --> 00:22:42,655
[Idun] Hvitserk, do not think
so unkindly of the gods.

274
00:22:50,996 --> 00:22:51,996
[Hvitserk] Who are you?

275
00:22:53,749 --> 00:22:54,749
Are you a ghost?

276
00:22:54,833 --> 00:22:55,833
[Idun] No.

277
00:22:56,752 --> 00:22:57,920
My name is Idun.

278
00:22:59,380 --> 00:23:00,714
And I know all about you.

279
00:23:02,132 --> 00:23:03,592
I will spend tonight with you,

280
00:23:05,219 --> 00:23:06,470
if you desire it.

281
00:23:08,597 --> 00:23:10,391
[indistinct chatter]

282
00:23:14,311 --> 00:23:15,604
[Ivar] You have it made here.

283
00:23:19,275 --> 00:23:20,985
[Harald] Yes. That's what I thought.

284
00:23:24,029 --> 00:23:25,531
Are you saying it's not true?

285
00:23:29,368 --> 00:23:32,204
I don't know why I should tell you,
but I suppose,

286
00:23:34,665 --> 00:23:38,544
- if you are a god, you know, anyway.
- [chuckles]

287
00:23:45,467 --> 00:23:47,803
I'm not sure I was meant to rule.

288
00:23:51,181 --> 00:23:54,476
I always imagined ruling was my destiny.

289
00:23:54,685 --> 00:23:58,105
I wanted to be king of
all Norway. [chuckles]

290
00:23:59,940 --> 00:24:04,695
I even challenged
Bjorn Ironside for that title,

291
00:24:06,864 --> 00:24:08,616
and I cheated it to make it mine.

292
00:24:09,867 --> 00:24:11,243
But, now,

293
00:24:12,870 --> 00:24:14,580
I'm not sure I ever really...

294
00:24:15,664 --> 00:24:16,790
wanted it after all.

295
00:24:22,671 --> 00:24:26,467
Being king brings... so little pleasure,

296
00:24:27,051 --> 00:24:29,553
so little satisfaction.

297
00:24:31,305 --> 00:24:32,306
Don't you agree,

298
00:24:34,391 --> 00:24:35,934
King Ivar?

299
00:25:17,059 --> 00:25:18,143
I came back here,

300
00:25:20,562 --> 00:25:23,023
I thought I could reinvent myself.

301
00:25:23,857 --> 00:25:25,609
Be the person that I once was.

302
00:25:27,236 --> 00:25:28,404
Be the person...

303
00:25:29,321 --> 00:25:31,115
who wanted to rule,

304
00:25:33,283 --> 00:25:38,288
who wanted to...
do anything to claim a throne.

305
00:25:42,418 --> 00:25:44,128
But sitting on that throne...

306
00:25:46,964 --> 00:25:48,090
means nothing.

307
00:25:54,346 --> 00:25:56,265
There is an illusion of power...

308
00:25:57,182 --> 00:26:00,394
that induces inside you
a kind of madness.

309
00:26:03,897 --> 00:26:05,065
Isn't that true?

310
00:26:08,861 --> 00:26:10,821
Isn't it true, Ivar?

311
00:26:13,449 --> 00:26:15,200
- Admit it!
- Yes.

312
00:26:17,286 --> 00:26:18,286
Yes.

313
00:26:19,997 --> 00:26:21,331
It's true.

314
00:26:25,586 --> 00:26:27,337
[imperceptible]

315
00:26:51,904 --> 00:26:55,532
I'm not sure I like
what I have returned to.

316
00:26:57,117 --> 00:26:59,286
I don't really want to rule Kattegat.

317
00:26:59,369 --> 00:27:01,914
I think ruling Kattegat will be boring.
[chuckles]

318
00:27:04,666 --> 00:27:07,503
And, in the meantime,
I'm married to a witch,

319
00:27:07,795 --> 00:27:10,714
who I know does not love me at all.

320
00:27:12,257 --> 00:27:16,261
And the woman that I love,
truly, is dead.

321
00:27:17,763 --> 00:27:19,515
And that may be my fault, too.

322
00:27:19,598 --> 00:27:21,767
Let's not talk about love.

323
00:27:24,728 --> 00:27:26,605
Well, at least you have
brothers to talk to.

324
00:27:26,688 --> 00:27:30,025
I have... no one. I'm always alone.

325
00:27:32,319 --> 00:27:33,319
No.

326
00:27:35,239 --> 00:27:37,032
Your brother Halfdan is here.

327
00:27:39,368 --> 00:27:40,994
He's listening to us right now.

328
00:27:42,746 --> 00:27:43,914
So is my father,

329
00:27:44,706 --> 00:27:46,375
my mother, and my brothers.

330
00:27:48,168 --> 00:27:49,336
Everyone is around us.

331
00:27:51,547 --> 00:27:52,673
Don't you believe that?

332
00:27:57,928 --> 00:27:59,179
Halfdan is gone.

333
00:28:00,013 --> 00:28:01,390
It's a long time ago now.

334
00:28:04,393 --> 00:28:05,727
I killed him, of course.

335
00:28:09,481 --> 00:28:12,067
Do you think he would come to visit me?

336
00:28:20,117 --> 00:28:21,743
I hope the gods forgive me.

337
00:28:24,454 --> 00:28:26,164
But I don't think it's possible.

338
00:28:34,298 --> 00:28:36,174
[Idun speaking in native tongue]

339
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:49,520
[Idun continues speaking]

340
00:28:51,356 --> 00:28:52,608
[thunder rumbling]

341
00:28:55,235 --> 00:28:56,445
I know who you are.

342
00:28:57,362 --> 00:29:01,325
Idun, the goddess
blessed with eternal youth.

343
00:29:01,950 --> 00:29:03,035
[chuckles softly]

344
00:29:05,078 --> 00:29:07,080
Odin must have sent you to me.

345
00:29:11,835 --> 00:29:15,380
I am not acting under orders.

346
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,343
I have watched you all your life.

347
00:29:21,011 --> 00:29:23,931
Shared your joys and your pain.

348
00:29:26,934 --> 00:29:29,227
And, so, I decided to appear to you,

349
00:29:30,103 --> 00:29:31,772
as you deserve.

350
00:29:35,192 --> 00:29:36,752
[voice trembles] Will you stay with me?

351
00:29:38,570 --> 00:29:39,821
Only till the dawn.

352
00:29:40,948 --> 00:29:43,909
But the dawn is a long, long way away.

353
00:29:49,498 --> 00:29:51,959
So, weep no more, sweet Hvitserk.

354
00:29:52,876 --> 00:29:53,876
Weep no more.

355
00:29:59,716 --> 00:30:01,176
[door closes]

356
00:30:05,263 --> 00:30:06,264
[exhales]

357
00:30:10,602 --> 00:30:11,687
[grunts]

358
00:30:15,899 --> 00:30:17,985
[Ragnar] <i>People think that
you are not a threat,</i>

359
00:30:18,735 --> 00:30:19,945
<i>but I know differently.</i>

360
00:30:24,449 --> 00:30:25,867
<i>Out of all of my sons,</i>

361
00:30:25,951 --> 00:30:28,370
<i>it was you I wanted to bring here,</i>

362
00:30:28,745 --> 00:30:29,745
<i>and it is you</i>

363
00:30:30,247 --> 00:30:34,626
that I believe is the most important
to the future of our people.

364
00:30:35,460 --> 00:30:37,004
[grunting]

365
00:30:37,087 --> 00:30:38,755
<i>You do not think like other men.</i>

366
00:30:38,839 --> 00:30:40,132
You are unpredictable.

367
00:30:40,215 --> 00:30:42,259
[breathes heavily]

368
00:30:43,385 --> 00:30:44,385
Anger is a gift!

369
00:30:45,595 --> 00:30:47,556
What is in here is a gift!

370
00:30:50,142 --> 00:30:51,852
[grunts]

371
00:31:37,272 --> 00:31:39,191
[breathing deeply]

372
00:31:53,455 --> 00:31:54,539
[grunts]

373
00:31:56,041 --> 00:31:58,376
[Ragnar] <i>Everyone will always
underestimate you.</i>

374
00:31:59,169 --> 00:32:00,587
<i>You must make them pay for it.</i>

375
00:32:01,505 --> 00:32:03,673
<i>Use your anger intelligently.</i>

376
00:32:04,216 --> 00:32:05,967
<i>And I promise you, my son,</i>

377
00:32:06,051 --> 00:32:09,554
that one day, the whole world will know

378
00:32:09,638 --> 00:32:13,308
and fear Ivar, the Boneless.

379
00:32:17,646 --> 00:32:18,772
Be ruthless.

380
00:32:29,324 --> 00:32:30,909
[rain pattering]

381
00:33:09,573 --> 00:33:11,241
[sobbing]

382
00:33:32,262 --> 00:33:34,264
[laughing]

383
00:33:51,656 --> 00:33:52,949
[vocalizing]

384
00:34:23,563 --> 00:34:25,774
[continues vocalizing]

385
00:34:45,210 --> 00:34:47,170
[singing in native tongue]

386
00:35:30,797 --> 00:35:32,590
[indistinct chatter]

387
00:36:07,459 --> 00:36:09,669
[woman shouting indistinctly]

388
00:36:46,706 --> 00:36:47,999
[tapping]

389
00:36:50,835 --> 00:36:51,836
[man 1] Give me my money!

390
00:36:53,088 --> 00:36:54,589
Give me my money! Give me, give me.

391
00:36:55,090 --> 00:36:56,210
[man 2] You already have it!

392
00:36:56,633 --> 00:36:58,927
You joker! Give me my money.

393
00:36:59,969 --> 00:37:01,221
You give me my money.

394
00:37:05,475 --> 00:37:06,726
You get two, unless...

395
00:37:10,563 --> 00:37:11,803
[man] What did you do that for?

396
00:37:14,567 --> 00:37:15,985
Hey, you! Cripple!

397
00:37:18,780 --> 00:37:20,990
Queen Ingrid told us that
in time of peace,

398
00:37:21,074 --> 00:37:23,701
we would have no choice but to fall out
with each other.

399
00:37:24,035 --> 00:37:25,245
It's true.

400
00:37:25,328 --> 00:37:28,206
No doubt that we'd all like to deny it,
but it will happen.

401
00:37:28,540 --> 00:37:32,043
Unless there is still something
left for us to do together.

402
00:37:33,628 --> 00:37:35,797
There is, and this is it.

403
00:37:43,763 --> 00:37:45,014
Please, Ragnar, drink.

404
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:46,640
Please drink.

405
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:48,935
He won't feed.

406
00:37:51,020 --> 00:37:52,105
He can't die!

407
00:37:52,689 --> 00:37:54,315
- Of course he can die.
- No!

408
00:37:55,066 --> 00:37:58,653
- It's impossible.
- You're not a god. You can't save him.

409
00:37:58,736 --> 00:38:00,613
[yells]

410
00:38:01,781 --> 00:38:03,032
This is my fault!

411
00:38:03,741 --> 00:38:05,618
We should never have left Kattegat!

412
00:38:08,455 --> 00:38:10,206
Why are we dying here,

413
00:38:10,665 --> 00:38:12,083
in the middle of nowhere?

414
00:38:12,625 --> 00:38:14,002
In the middle of the ocean?

415
00:38:14,669 --> 00:38:16,337
It was not your decision, Ubbe.

416
00:38:17,130 --> 00:38:20,008
The gods have brought us here.
The gods have decided our fate.

417
00:38:20,717 --> 00:38:24,929
Unfortunately, Ubbe has lost his faith.

418
00:38:25,555 --> 00:38:26,890
- He no longer believes.
- Ubbe...

419
00:38:27,390 --> 00:38:28,390
Do you, Ubbe?

420
00:38:29,976 --> 00:38:30,976
Ubbe!

421
00:38:32,020 --> 00:38:34,689
Ubbe, please, no! No!

422
00:38:35,482 --> 00:38:36,649
Ubbe!

423
00:38:37,525 --> 00:38:39,486
Ubbe, no! Stop it!

424
00:38:40,945 --> 00:38:42,030
Don't you understand?

425
00:38:42,405 --> 00:38:45,992
If you behave like this,
if you try to murder one another,

426
00:38:46,242 --> 00:38:48,870
then we're just like Kjetill
and those we left behind!

427
00:38:48,953 --> 00:38:50,205
We are no different!

428
00:38:50,914 --> 00:38:53,291
What is the point in trying
to find a new land,

429
00:38:53,708 --> 00:38:56,336
if we behave just the same
as we did in the old one?

430
00:38:57,587 --> 00:39:00,340
Ubbe, for the love of the gods!

431
00:39:14,562 --> 00:39:15,730
[thunderclap]

432
00:39:24,322 --> 00:39:25,949
- [birds chirping]
- [people chattering]

433
00:39:30,662 --> 00:39:31,663
My friends,

434
00:39:32,914 --> 00:39:34,624
I have exciting news.

435
00:39:34,999 --> 00:39:39,420
Well, what kind of a king would I be
if I didn't bring you exciting news?

436
00:39:39,504 --> 00:39:40,504
[all laughing]

437
00:39:41,839 --> 00:39:47,220
King Bjorn believed that Kattegat
could exist by trade alone.

438
00:39:48,137 --> 00:39:50,181
It is not true.

439
00:39:50,890 --> 00:39:53,810
Of course it is true
that we have always been traders.

440
00:39:53,893 --> 00:39:55,937
We have gone to the ends of the Earth

441
00:39:56,020 --> 00:39:58,690
to trade with other peoples,
other cultures.

442
00:39:58,773 --> 00:40:01,943
But these,
our Scandinavian countries, are small.

443
00:40:02,026 --> 00:40:03,736
And we don't have that much to trade.

444
00:40:04,153 --> 00:40:07,448
Instead, we have raided far and wide.

445
00:40:07,532 --> 00:40:08,572
[crowd shouting agreement]

446
00:40:08,783 --> 00:40:11,744
And our raids have been successful.

447
00:40:11,828 --> 00:40:13,037
[crowd] Yes!

448
00:40:13,705 --> 00:40:17,625
We have a presence now
in England, in Ireland,

449
00:40:17,709 --> 00:40:20,920
in Frankia, and even in Rus!

450
00:40:21,170 --> 00:40:22,714
[crowd] Yes!

451
00:40:22,797 --> 00:40:26,467
We have started to put down roots
in all these places.

452
00:40:27,260 --> 00:40:31,514
And our influence has grown
out of all proportion to our size.

453
00:40:33,516 --> 00:40:35,977
Unless we continue raiding,

454
00:40:36,728 --> 00:40:38,646
continue to win battles,

455
00:40:39,230 --> 00:40:40,815
take territory,

456
00:40:41,733 --> 00:40:45,320
we will soon lose everything
we have gained so far.

457
00:40:47,947 --> 00:40:50,908
In England, we have a foothold in York,

458
00:40:50,992 --> 00:40:52,994
in Mercia, and Northumberland.

459
00:40:53,286 --> 00:40:57,415
And we still have
a settlement in Wessex,

460
00:40:57,582 --> 00:40:59,167
that Ubbe won for us.

461
00:41:01,586 --> 00:41:02,670
But Wessex...

462
00:41:03,796 --> 00:41:05,131
remains powerful,

463
00:41:06,341 --> 00:41:08,676
remains the last
great kingdom of England.

464
00:41:09,344 --> 00:41:14,432
Its king, Alfred, receives homage
from all Saxon tribes.

465
00:41:16,559 --> 00:41:18,978
And if we leave his kingdom alone,

466
00:41:19,187 --> 00:41:22,690
then, surely,
he will destroy our settlements,

467
00:41:22,857 --> 00:41:25,777
and regain all his lost fiefdoms.

468
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,032
We cannot allow it.

469
00:41:31,115 --> 00:41:33,368
[crowd murmuring]

470
00:41:45,171 --> 00:41:47,840
They tell me that
all our great heroes are dead.

471
00:41:49,300 --> 00:41:50,510
And perhaps you believe it.

472
00:41:52,136 --> 00:41:54,514
For it seems to me,
that while our kinsmen

473
00:41:54,847 --> 00:41:56,557
struggle and fight abroad,

474
00:41:57,183 --> 00:41:59,852
all of you have settled for
comfortable lives here in Kattegat,

475
00:42:00,061 --> 00:42:03,272
living off the fat of the land,
forgetting who you really are,

476
00:42:04,273 --> 00:42:06,192
forgetting that you're Vikings,

477
00:42:07,777 --> 00:42:11,656
the sons and daughters of the gods,
longing for Valhalla.

478
00:42:17,036 --> 00:42:20,373
Is it for this
that Ragnar Lothbrok died?

479
00:42:21,874 --> 00:42:24,585
Is it for your easy living,
your temperate days,

480
00:42:24,669 --> 00:42:26,421
that he sacrificed his life?

481
00:42:29,298 --> 00:42:31,342
I was there when my father died.

482
00:42:32,552 --> 00:42:36,180
I watched him wretched in his cage
above a pit of vipers.

483
00:42:36,264 --> 00:42:38,182
And I heard his last words.

484
00:42:38,558 --> 00:42:39,726
He wanted no pity.

485
00:42:41,477 --> 00:42:43,896
He was glad to die. [chuckles]

486
00:42:43,980 --> 00:42:47,608
Laughing, knowing that, soon,
he would sup with the gods.

487
00:42:50,236 --> 00:42:54,866
But he urged his sons, and he urged you,
his people, to avenge him.

488
00:42:55,950 --> 00:42:59,412
Since his death, the Christian plague
has spread across the world,

489
00:42:59,495 --> 00:43:01,080
even infecting our Rus brothers.

490
00:43:01,456 --> 00:43:03,124
But you still claim to be Vikings.

491
00:43:03,458 --> 00:43:04,584
Then act like Vikings!

492
00:43:04,959 --> 00:43:07,503
Forget about your comfortable existence!

493
00:43:07,754 --> 00:43:10,006
Come with me and conquer King Alfred!

494
00:43:10,214 --> 00:43:13,217
Come with me and conquer England,
and all of its riches!

495
00:43:13,301 --> 00:43:14,301
[crowd shouting in agreement]

496
00:43:14,302 --> 00:43:15,678
Reclaim your birthright!

497
00:43:15,970 --> 00:43:18,681
Be like the gods and reach
for Valhalla!

498
00:43:18,931 --> 00:43:20,349
[all] Valhalla!

499
00:43:20,808 --> 00:43:22,518
[all] Valhalla!

500
00:43:22,602 --> 00:43:23,770
[yells]

501
00:43:25,271 --> 00:43:27,899
- [all] Hail Ivar!
- All hail Ivar!

502
00:43:28,608 --> 00:43:30,902
Hail Ivar! Hail Ivar!

503
00:43:31,027 --> 00:43:33,529
[all chanting] Hail Ivar! Hail Ivar!

504
00:43:42,872 --> 00:43:44,499
[chanting continues]

505
00:43:46,250 --> 00:43:47,668
[music playing]
