You must be yourself.

I want to be myself,
I'm just not sure how to be.

After all, doing the right thing
might just be the easy way.

552
00:42:08,845 --> 00:42:11,499
That is always the danger,

to do the right things
for the wrong reasons.

00:42:16,515 --> 00:42:18,519
You are so right to be cautious.

555
00:42:29,180 --> 00:42:30,790
When I look out into the Great Hall,

556
00:42:32,618 --> 00:42:34,881
I see my father and my mother.

Why wouldn't I?

558
00:42:41,758 --> 00:42:43,281
And suddenly, I feel old.

I'm not their son any longer.

[SNIFFING]

564
00:43:15,487 --> 00:43:18,121
I have decided to treat your arrival here

565
00:43:19,099 --> 00:43:20,753
as a sign,

566
00:43:20,797 --> 00:43:21,797
an omen.

567
00:43:25,453 --> 00:43:28,195
You see, for a long time, we Rus,

568
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,589

569

conquests, and expansion.

Yet, even before your,

572
00:43:43,341 --> 00:43:45,982
I had begun to question
this way of thinking.

573
00:43:47,693 --> 00:43:49,569
Perhaps, after all,

574
00:43:50,783 --> 00:43:53,177
it's time for us to look west

575
00:43:54,004 --> 00:43:55,741
again.

576
00:43:56,397 --> 00:44:01,315
Years ago, I hung my shield on
the city gates of Constantinople,

but now it's time to hang it
on the gates of Kattegat.

I say it is a fine plan.

00:44:32,129 --> 00:44:35,262
Now I see that my arrival
here in Kiev was no accident,

584
00:44:35,306 --> 00:44:37,787
as I supposed,
but all arranged by the gods.
