2
00:00:02,854 --> 00:00:05,174
Thorvard: The Saxons treacherously
attacked King Horik's camp.

3
00:00:05,197 --> 00:00:07,761
The king and his son, Erlendur,
escaped with their lives.

4
00:00:07,774 --> 00:00:09,013
Ragnar: What about Athelstan?

<i>Bishop Edmund:

6

Cut him down!

7
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,789
I know things about Ragnar
Lothbrok you do not know.

8
00:00:15,810 --> 00:00:18,257
How do I know you and I
can trust each other?

9

<i>It is always a strength to know
the weaknesses of your friends.</i>

Lagertha: Bjorn is
very happy here.

11
00:00:23,841 --> 00:00:26,376
Then you both should stay.

12
00:00:26,391 --> 00:00:29,160
<i>Lagertha: I must go back to
my husband. I have a duty.</i>

13
00:00:29,181 --> 00:00:32,826
But I leave my son
in your good hands.

14
00:00:32,839 --> 00:00:36,196
- Lagertha: Don't!
- Sigvard: I am your husband!

15
00:00:36,215 --> 00:00:39,916
<i>Ragnar: I want to destroy Jarl Borg
and to kill him with my bare hands.</i>

16
00:00:40,495 --> 00:00:44,276
To make him suffer, as he's
made my family suffer.

Seer: Tell me what
it is you want.

28
00:01:40,951 --> 00:01:43,753
Are you unhappy?

29
00:01:43,774 --> 00:01:47,112
Do you think the gods
have cheated you?

30
00:01:54,070 --> 00:01:57,650
Siggy: I want my
old position back.

31
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,354
I am bitter and
I am angry.

32
00:02:00,370 --> 00:02:03,325
Everything I had,
everything I possessed,

33
00:02:03,338 --> 00:02:08,246
everything that I was has
been stripped away from me.

34
00:02:12,122 --> 00:02:14,870
And my anger is
like a stone...

35
00:02:18,922 --> 00:02:22,235
A stone that I carry
inside me that...

36
00:02:23,350 --> 00:02:26,219
weighs me down. I...

37
00:02:27,281 --> 00:02:28,861
I cannot lift it.

<i>Seer: In some ways, you
are still fortunate.</i>

39
00:02:32,543 --> 00:02:35,943
Ragnar could have had you killed
at the same time as your husband.

40
00:02:35,975 --> 00:02:40,653
Siggy: I am supposed to be eternally
grateful to my husband's killer?

41
00:02:41,438 --> 00:02:45,001
I ask you once more, why
you have come here.

42
00:02:46,085 --> 00:02:49,023
I want to know,

43
00:02:51,129 --> 00:02:55,108
will the gods ever
smile on me again?

44
00:02:55,941 --> 00:03:00,108
<i>Seer: The gods will always
smile on brave women,</i>

45
00:03:00,127 --> 00:03:02,587
like the Valkyries,

46
00:03:02,606 --> 00:03:08,533
those furies who men
fear and desire.

<i>Man: Erik!</i>

53
00:04:00,065 --> 00:04:03,236
You'll have to forgive the
poverty of the feast.

54
00:04:03,255 --> 00:04:05,674
It has been a hard winter.

55
00:04:07,032 --> 00:04:10,883
We had to burn our own grain stores
to rid ourselves of Jarl Borg.

56
00:04:10,903 --> 00:04:12,960
Horik: So I heard.

57
00:04:14,976 --> 00:04:16,856
Ragnar: Tell us, Erlendur,

58
00:04:16,875 --> 00:04:19,966
what happened in
England, after we left?

59
00:04:21,829 --> 00:04:25,282
King Horik: Ecbert never meant
to honor his promises to you.

60
00:04:25,300 --> 00:04:27,733
We were betrayed,
taken by surprise;

61
00:04:27,758 --> 00:04:30,065
It was a great slaughter.

62
00:04:30,084 --> 00:04:32,611
Erlendur and I barely
escaped with our lives.

63
00:04:32,631 --> 00:04:35,298
What about Athelstan?

64
00:04:35,323 --> 00:04:37,064
Where is he now?

65
00:04:37,078 --> 00:04:40,547
If he is fortunate,
he died in battle.

66
00:04:40,568 --> 00:04:43,536
In any case, let's
not speak of him.

67
00:04:43,544 --> 00:04:46,367
He was a worthless
individual.

68
00:04:48,148 --> 00:04:50,260
<i>Bjorn: Poor Athelstan.</i>

69
00:04:50,904 --> 00:04:53,797
My sister and I grew to love
him when we were children.

70
00:04:53,815 --> 00:04:57,135
<i>Floki: He fooled
you, young Bjorn.</i>

71
00:04:57,152 --> 00:05:00,365
He never denounced
his Christian God!

72
00:05:00,381 --> 00:05:02,975
He was our enemy.

73
00:05:03,657 --> 00:05:07,132
And we should rejoice
at his death.

74
00:05:07,969 --> 00:05:10,043
So...

75
00:05:11,327 --> 00:05:13,427
What do you intend
on doing now?

76
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,483
King Horik: What do
you think, Ragnar?

77
00:05:16,498 --> 00:05:20,202
I intend on gaining
revenge on King Ecbert.

78
00:05:20,220 --> 00:05:23,162
We should plan a raid
as soon as possible.

79
00:05:23,183 --> 00:05:25,918
<i>Rollo: I would be very
happy to take part in it.</i>

80
00:05:25,940 --> 00:05:29,000
King Ecbert should
certainly be punished.

81
00:05:30,078 --> 00:05:32,311
I agree.

82
00:05:32,324 --> 00:05:34,866
We should return
to Wessex.

83
00:05:35,616 --> 00:05:38,223
But first, Jarl Borg
must pay the price

84
00:05:38,243 --> 00:05:41,029
for what he did
to my family

85
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,040
and to our people.

86
00:05:44,256 --> 00:05:46,729
(Water pours)
Porunn: (Gasps)

87
00:05:47,767 --> 00:05:49,347
Forgive me, master.

88
00:05:49,373 --> 00:05:52,023
No, it doesn't matter.

89
00:05:52,659 --> 00:05:54,279
<i>King Horik: I
understand, completely,</i>

90
00:05:54,307 --> 00:05:55,874
<i>and if I were you, I
would feel the same way.</i>

91
00:05:55,883 --> 00:06:00,966
<i>But we must remember our
agreement and what it was for.</i>

92
00:06:00,982 --> 00:06:05,697
We would sail west to
raid and to colonize.

93
00:06:05,713 --> 00:06:11,105
That was your dream, Ragnar,
and I have come to share it.

94
00:06:11,125 --> 00:06:17,426
But now we have neither the men nor
the ships to realize our dreams.

95
00:06:18,619 --> 00:06:22,728
- What are you saying?
- I think we should go back to Jarl Borg.

96
00:06:22,754 --> 00:06:24,421
He is licking his wounds.

97
00:06:24,439 --> 00:06:29,660
He is no longer as strong as he was.
And, yet, we need him.

98
00:06:29,686 --> 00:06:32,926
We cannot go west
without his ships.

99
00:06:32,947 --> 00:06:38,131
And so, once again, we should
ask him to join our alliance.

100
00:06:42,980 --> 00:06:45,967
Aslaug: (Whispers quietly)
Don't listen to him.

101
00:06:46,873 --> 00:06:49,369
Rollo: But who should
go to Jarl Borg?

102
00:06:49,390 --> 00:06:52,459
King Horik: I think it
should be you Rollo.

103
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,886
After all, you know him
better than anyone.

104
00:06:58,437 --> 00:07:00,469
What do you think?

105
00:07:04,545 --> 00:07:06,526
(Wind howls)

106
00:07:08,222 --> 00:07:09,895
Farewell, my love.

107
00:07:09,921 --> 00:07:13,139
I will pray to Thor that
he grant you safe passage.

108
00:07:13,159 --> 00:07:15,253
<i>Warrior 1: Throw that!</i>

109
00:07:16,791 --> 00:07:19,205
King Horik: May you
have success, Rollo,

110
00:07:19,230 --> 00:07:20,661
for the sake of all of us.

111
00:07:20,681 --> 00:07:24,050
- <i>Warrior 1: Man your stations.</i>
- <i>Warrior 2: Stores aboard.</i>

112
00:07:32,340 --> 00:07:34,559
Warrior 1: All the men aboard!

113
00:07:34,579 --> 00:07:36,550
Torstein: Rollo.

114
00:07:37,189 --> 00:07:38,743
<i>Warrior 2: Try the sail then.</i>

115
00:07:38,762 --> 00:07:41,727
I, too, wish you well.

116
00:07:41,740 --> 00:07:44,067
Those words mean a
lot coming from you.

117
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,522
They were hard to say.
Now they are said.

118
00:07:54,361 --> 00:07:55,761
Cast away!

119
00:07:55,781 --> 00:07:58,352
<i>Warrior 1: Ready the oars!</i>

120
00:07:58,433 --> 00:08:03,570
(Oars stroke the
water, water churns)

121
00:08:14,541 --> 00:08:17,959
(Wind howls fiercely)

122
00:08:18,438 --> 00:08:20,373
(Wine pouring)

123
00:08:20,421 --> 00:08:22,422
(Fire crackles)

124
00:08:25,185 --> 00:08:28,754
Horik: It has an
unusual taste, wine.

125
00:08:28,775 --> 00:08:32,568
But then, you're an
unusual woman, Siggy.

126
00:08:34,861 --> 00:08:38,459
I hope you do not mind I
brought my son with me?

127
00:08:38,472 --> 00:08:43,076
I want him to start to
understand the game.

128
00:08:43,096 --> 00:08:44,463
The game?

129
00:08:44,476 --> 00:08:46,675
The game you and I play.

130
00:08:47,475 --> 00:08:50,722
The game Ragnar
tries to play.

131
00:08:52,272 --> 00:08:54,885
Are you sure it is a game?

132
00:08:57,077 --> 00:09:00,148
Why do you invite
me to your bed?

133
00:09:01,435 --> 00:09:04,862
Why do you tell me
things about Ragnar?

134
00:09:09,088 --> 00:09:11,509
Everything I do,

135
00:09:11,534 --> 00:09:14,014
I do for Rollo.

136
00:09:16,083 --> 00:09:18,495
And not for yourself?

137
00:09:18,521 --> 00:09:21,275
If Rollo rises, I rise also.

138
00:09:22,657 --> 00:09:24,791
And you need my help!

139
00:09:24,812 --> 00:09:26,413
(Chuckles)

140
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:27,552
(Chuckles)

141
00:09:27,577 --> 00:09:29,810
My son is ignorant
of the game

142
00:09:29,829 --> 00:09:34,298
and strangely ignorant
of other things as well.

143
00:09:34,318 --> 00:09:39,660
He's only been with a few women, and
they were nothing... Slaves, girls.

144
00:09:42,168 --> 00:09:45,821
I want him to enjoy
the attentions

145
00:09:45,839 --> 00:09:49,786
of an experienced,
free woman.

146
00:09:49,813 --> 00:09:52,045

Siggy: Erlendur, come.

<i>Sigvard: (Drunkenly) She sees a

157
00:11:22,589 --> 00:11:25,175
<i>thatched with
gold, at Gimle.</i>

00:11:25,201 --> 00:11:29,225
<i>There shall the gods

159
00:11:29,243 --> 00:11:32,123

(Loud belch, ale pours)

161
00:11:34,799 --> 00:11:37,638
Why don't we have
poets here anymore?

162
00:11:38,658 --> 00:11:41,026
Poets to entertain us!

163
00:11:41,047 --> 00:11:43,047
Sing to us!

164
00:11:43,066 --> 00:11:45,137
Make us laugh.

165
00:11:45,812 --> 00:11:51,152
I remember when this great hall
was always full of laughter.

166
00:11:51,859 --> 00:11:55,258
Laughter and
good fellowship.

167
00:11:56,536 --> 00:11:58,421
<i>Woman: You can see
it in her eyes.</i>

168
00:11:58,444 --> 00:12:01,079
My wife has returned to me.

Men: (Chuckling)

171
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,385
She went without
my permission.

172
00:12:09,982 --> 00:12:15,426
But, as you can all see, she has
come back and I love her for it.

173
00:12:15,442 --> 00:12:21,426
After all, what man
wouldn't be pleased

174
00:12:21,439 --> 00:12:24,333
at the return
of such a wife?

175
00:12:27,241 --> 00:12:28,694

176

Crowd: Skol!

177
00:12:32,934 --> 00:12:35,982
Lagertha: Skol, husband.

178
00:12:44,724 --> 00:12:47,724
Unfortunately,

179
00:12:47,749 --> 00:12:50,771
you left my
stepson behind.

180
00:12:52,228 --> 00:12:53,879
Man: It's time to leave.

181
00:12:53,907 --> 00:12:56,393
(Women quietly withdraw)

182
00:12:57,258 --> 00:13:00,041
Woman: Gerta, take my hand.
Come. Come.

183
00:13:01,613 --> 00:13:04,627
He wanted to stay
with his father.

184
00:13:05,298 --> 00:13:08,678
He's old enough to decide.
Is it not enough that I came back?

185
00:13:08,695 --> 00:13:10,675
No,

186
00:13:10,700 --> 00:13:14,973
it's not enough, my dear wife, it's...
It's not enough!

187
00:13:14,994 --> 00:13:17,967
Of course it's not enough.
It's an insult to me!

188
00:13:17,986 --> 00:13:20,701
What else could
I have done?

189
00:13:20,714 --> 00:13:22,601
His father is
Ragnar Lothbrok.

190
00:13:22,628 --> 00:13:24,937
(Sudden thud, cup clatters)

191
00:13:27,808 --> 00:13:30,135
Who is this...

192
00:13:30,147 --> 00:13:32,334
Ragnar Lothbrok?!

193
00:13:32,353 --> 00:13:35,357
Nothing but a windbag,
an opportunist.

194
00:13:35,383 --> 00:13:38,116
A man so bloated
with self-importance

195
00:13:38,129 --> 00:13:40,649
he pretends to be
descended from Odin!

196
00:13:40,676 --> 00:13:43,403
<i>(Men laugh)</i>

197
00:13:43,798 --> 00:13:46,045
He doesn't need to
pretend anything.

198
00:13:46,065 --> 00:13:48,968
(Drunken stumble, objects clatter)

199
00:13:53,186 --> 00:13:57,903
Now I know for sure why
you went to defend him.

200
00:13:57,923 --> 00:14:03,097
Not to repulse a foreign
invader, as you lied to me,

201
00:14:03,116 --> 00:14:06,379
but because you're still
in love with him.

202
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:13,165
You're still in love
with Ragnar Lothbrok,

203
00:14:14,239 --> 00:14:17,642
aren't you, wife?

204
00:14:21,121 --> 00:14:23,817
(Drunken stumble,
objects clatter)

205
00:14:24,624 --> 00:14:27,477

alone tonight.

206
00:14:27,490 --> 00:14:30,517

arrangements.

207
00:14:32,126 --> 00:14:34,794

(Repeated blows,

218
00:15:24,215 --> 00:15:27,442
Master, can I help you?

219
00:15:27,461 --> 00:15:30,703
I was going to ask you
the same question.

220
00:15:30,735 --> 00:15:32,935
Those buckets
look very heavy.

221
00:15:32,957 --> 00:15:35,097
I'm used to it.

222
00:15:39,197 --> 00:15:41,724
Bjorn: What is your name?

223
00:15:41,753 --> 00:15:43,938
Porunn: Porunn.

224
00:15:45,843 --> 00:15:47,970
Sit a moment.

225
00:15:47,991 --> 00:15:51,704
- I have to finish my work.
- It is all right.

226
00:15:52,744 --> 00:15:54,877

230
00:16:09,273 --> 00:16:11,693
Where do you sleep?

231
00:16:11,713 --> 00:16:16,829
In that barn with the other
servants and animals.

232
00:16:17,568 --> 00:16:19,675
Do you...

233
00:16:19,700 --> 00:16:22,505
have a boyfriend?

234
00:16:24,976 --> 00:16:27,181
Of course!

241
00:17:00,991 --> 00:17:04,203
Why do you let Horik
decide everything?

242
00:17:07,451 --> 00:17:10,517
Can you really
forgive Jarl Borg?

243
00:17:12,774 --> 00:17:15,902
Do you know how much I
suffered because of him?

244
00:17:15,922 --> 00:17:18,609
How much your
sons suffered?

245
00:17:20,429 --> 00:17:22,705
Yes,

246
00:17:22,730 --> 00:17:24,457
I know.

247
00:17:24,477 --> 00:17:27,564
But you do nothing
about it!

248
00:17:27,592 --> 00:17:33,026
By insulting and humiliating me,
he insulted and humiliated you!

249
00:17:34,044 --> 00:17:36,784
My father never would have
allowed such a thing.

250
00:17:36,807 --> 00:17:39,291
He would have
been revenged.

251
00:17:41,582 --> 00:17:45,276
Your father cannot
do too much now,

252
00:17:45,295 --> 00:17:47,527
being dead.

Jarl Borg: Sit down.

257
00:18:12,383 --> 00:18:15,385
(Approaching footsteps)

258
00:18:26,757 --> 00:18:28,940
What is that?

259
00:18:32,603 --> 00:18:35,368
Jarl Borg: The skull
of my first wife.

260
00:18:36,267 --> 00:18:40,028
She continues
to advise me.

261
00:18:43,327 --> 00:18:46,190
Is that fair to her?

262
00:18:47,264 --> 00:18:49,404
So...

263
00:18:50,042 --> 00:18:53,789
Your brother wants me to
come and fight for him?

264
00:18:53,804 --> 00:18:59,873
He wants to rebuild the original alliance
between himself, King Horik, and you.

265
00:19:01,185 --> 00:19:03,501
He believes...

266
00:19:03,526 --> 00:19:07,046
that, in our
small countries,

267
00:19:07,073 --> 00:19:10,046
cooperation is the
only way forward.

268
00:19:11,269 --> 00:19:14,961
So he does not want
revenge upon me?

269
00:19:14,980 --> 00:19:18,579
After all, I
invaded his lands.

270
00:19:18,585 --> 00:19:22,121
Men like you and I will
always look for revenge.

271
00:19:23,981 --> 00:19:25,808
Ragnar looks beyond.

272
00:19:25,828 --> 00:19:30,601
Then he is a most
extraordinary man indeed.

273
00:19:30,621 --> 00:19:33,392
As forgiving as
a Christian!

274
00:19:34,451 --> 00:19:37,325
He is also a
practical man.

275
00:19:38,441 --> 00:19:42,184
He and King Horik have
lost a lot of men.

276
00:19:42,204 --> 00:19:45,545

help them raid.

a divine gift.

Athelstan: Thank you, sire.

286
00:20:57,882 --> 00:21:01,032
I thought I might have
forgotten, but...

287
00:21:01,912 --> 00:21:04,179
I love these materials.

288
00:21:04,194 --> 00:21:08,913
Brushes, the paints,
the colors.

289
00:21:09,953 --> 00:21:12,913
I had not appreciated how
much I missed my work.

290
00:21:12,932 --> 00:21:16,068
The pagans have
nothing like it?

291
00:21:16,081 --> 00:21:17,788
Athelstan: No.

292
00:21:17,813 --> 00:21:19,920
They have no art.

293
00:21:20,853 --> 00:21:25,128
They can neither read nor write,
except for their carved runes.

294
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,105
King Ecbert: Mm.

295
00:21:27,845 --> 00:21:29,758
And their gods?

296
00:21:29,777 --> 00:21:34,481
Uh... Odin and
Thor and Freyr.

297
00:21:35,178 --> 00:21:38,749
How strange you must
have found them?

298
00:21:41,452 --> 00:21:44,099
Their gods are very old.

299
00:21:44,121 --> 00:21:48,141
And sometimes I could not help noticing
some similarities with our own God,

300
00:21:48,166 --> 00:21:50,533
and his son.

301
00:21:53,991 --> 00:21:56,297
Come with me.

00:22:09,452 --> 00:22:12,539
Athelstan: I find them
indescribably beautiful.

305
00:22:12,563 --> 00:22:16,030
King Ecbert: But they
are clearly pagan!

306
00:22:16,641 --> 00:22:19,409
(Laughs)

307
00:22:19,616 --> 00:22:23,900
You are only a monk,
Athelstan, and yet, somehow,

308
00:22:23,918 --> 00:22:28,218
I begin to trust you.
I feel you...

309
00:22:28,248 --> 00:22:31,956
you are a kindred spirit.

310
00:22:34,958 --> 00:22:36,972
Who?

311
00:22:37,570 --> 00:22:40,248
Who painted these images?

312
00:22:40,261 --> 00:22:43,557
What race of man was
ever so glorious

313
00:22:43,577 --> 00:22:46,445
that they filled our
world with such,

314
00:22:46,458 --> 00:22:50,399
as you say,
indescribable beauty?

315
00:22:51,935 --> 00:22:54,470
I have been told, sire,

316
00:22:54,478 --> 00:22:57,905
that you served at the court
of the emperor Charlemagne,

317
00:22:57,928 --> 00:23:00,575
which I have also visited.

318
00:23:00,588 --> 00:23:04,993
I cannot imagine, therefore, that
you do not know what I know.

319
00:23:05,776 --> 00:23:08,509
That these images were
painted by the Romans.

320
00:23:08,536 --> 00:23:10,836
They conquered these
lands a long time ago.

321
00:23:10,856 --> 00:23:13,516
They conquered
the whole world.

322
00:23:14,271 --> 00:23:16,684
But they were pagans.

323
00:23:16,709 --> 00:23:19,570
They worshipped
false gods.

324
00:23:21,839 --> 00:23:26,610
Never speak of our conversation
to any other man here.

325
00:23:26,630 --> 00:23:29,523
Nobody else would
understand it;

326
00:23:29,543 --> 00:23:31,928
They would fear it!

327
00:23:31,941 --> 00:23:37,422
They accept an interpretation that a
race of giants once lived here...

328
00:23:37,461 --> 00:23:38,761
(Chuckles)

329
00:23:38,780 --> 00:23:41,093
And that we have nothing
to do with them.

330
00:23:41,117 --> 00:23:43,452
(Both chuckle)

331
00:23:43,474 --> 00:23:46,636
The fact is, Athelstan,

332
00:23:47,364 --> 00:23:52,061
we have lost more knowledge
than we ever had!

333
00:23:53,302 --> 00:23:57,276
These romans knew things
that we will never know.

334
00:23:57,296 --> 00:24:02,470
Their pagan gods allowed
them to rule the world.

335
00:24:04,235 --> 00:24:07,965
And what is the lesson that
we can learn from that?

00:26:41,433 --> 00:26:44,186
Tales of the Caesar's.

355
00:26:44,216 --> 00:26:47,017
The fall and ruin
of Roman Britain.

356
00:26:47,046 --> 00:26:51,093
Tales of emperors
and empires...

357
00:26:51,117 --> 00:26:54,527
It's the stuff of
dreams, Athelstan.

358
00:26:55,254 --> 00:26:59,744
It's the very
fabric of dreams.

359
00:27:02,175 --> 00:27:05,759
You can read
them, of course.

360
00:27:08,575 --> 00:27:11,109
(Dust scatters)

361
00:27:16,755 --> 00:27:19,822
Athelstan: Yes. Yes,
I can read them.

362
00:27:19,842 --> 00:27:21,529
King Ecbert: Good.

363
00:27:21,554 --> 00:27:24,624
That is why I've
chosen you.

364
00:27:30,590 --> 00:27:31,483
Athelstan: What do you mean?

365
00:27:31,509 --> 00:27:35,066
King Ecbert: Well, I've chosen you to
be the guardian of these books

366
00:27:35,079 --> 00:27:36,406
and their secrets.

367
00:27:36,419 --> 00:27:38,921
I want you to copy them.

368
00:27:38,934 --> 00:27:41,842
You speak Latin; Not many do.

369
00:27:41,867 --> 00:27:46,835
Your job will be to preserve
these works and these...

370
00:27:47,439 --> 00:27:50,012
fragments

371
00:27:50,035 --> 00:27:52,834
for all eternity.

372
00:27:55,981 --> 00:28:00,364
But if you ever tell
anyone about them,

373
00:28:00,392 --> 00:28:03,363
I will let them
crucify you.

374
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,361
(Seabirds cry out)

375
00:28:13,799 --> 00:28:17,168
(Water laps gently)

376
00:28:21,173 --> 00:28:24,709
(Oars stroke the water)

377
00:28:33,605 --> 00:28:36,810
Jarl Borg: I hope you were
telling me the truth, Rollo.

378
00:28:37,862 --> 00:28:40,363
Torvi: Why don't
you ask her?

379
00:28:42,094 --> 00:28:45,096
(Oars stroke the water)

380
00:28:48,353 --> 00:28:52,356
(Loud buzz of chatter fills the hall)

381
00:29:02,814 --> 00:29:05,008
<i>Man: Jarl Borg.</i>

382
00:29:07,186 --> 00:29:10,188
(Loud chatter)

383
00:29:15,719 --> 00:29:17,855
Ragnar: Please.

384
00:29:20,638 --> 00:29:23,337
Jarl Borg: Earl Ragnar Lothbrok,

385
00:29:25,855 --> 00:29:28,583
can I say, in all honesty,

386
00:29:30,771 --> 00:29:33,607
you're a greater
man than I am.

387
00:29:34,765 --> 00:29:38,174
I know I don't deserve the chance you
have given me to raid and work with you,

388
00:29:38,194 --> 00:29:41,543
but I swear on my ring,

389
00:29:41,555 --> 00:29:44,970
from henceforth, you've no
reason to doubt my loyalty,

390
00:29:45,002 --> 00:29:48,346
or my commitment to
our common cause.

391
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:52,421
If we are being honest,

392
00:29:52,441 --> 00:29:58,305
I can tell you that it was King Horik who
argued for a renewal of our alliance.

393
00:29:59,377 --> 00:30:02,504
As you can imagine,

394
00:30:02,524 --> 00:30:06,498
I was not, at first,
enthusiastic.

395
00:30:09,874 --> 00:30:12,254
But then...

396
00:30:12,281 --> 00:30:17,029
then I realized what could
be gained by inviting you.

397
00:30:18,603 --> 00:30:22,831
We have much to gain
if we work together,

398
00:30:22,844 --> 00:30:25,491
and a lot to lose
if we don't.

399
00:30:27,345 --> 00:30:29,938
Even I can see that now.

400
00:30:30,355 --> 00:30:32,356
(Chuckles softly)

401
00:30:33,872 --> 00:30:35,573
(Chuckles, pleased)

402
00:30:38,190 --> 00:30:39,977
Torstein.

403
00:30:40,892 --> 00:30:42,431
Yes, my lord.

404
00:30:42,444 --> 00:30:46,385
Ragnar: Put Jarl Borg's men in
the barn which the servants use.

405
00:30:46,411 --> 00:30:48,479
And treat them
with respect.

406
00:30:48,507 --> 00:30:50,984
Of course, my lord.

407
00:30:54,147 --> 00:30:56,114
Thank you.

408
00:31:01,799 --> 00:31:04,019
<i>King Horik: (Chuckles) Siggy.</i>

409
00:31:04,036 --> 00:31:08,341
I never once for a moment imagined
Ragnar would take my advice,

410
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:12,160
and invite Jarl Borg to
rejoin our alliance.

411
00:31:12,178 --> 00:31:15,225
As I told you,
Ragnar is different.

412
00:31:15,253 --> 00:31:20,677
Whatever you think he will do,
he will always do the opposite.

413
00:31:20,693 --> 00:31:23,373
And I wanted to thank you

414
00:31:23,380 --> 00:31:25,873
for what you did
for my son.

415
00:31:25,893 --> 00:31:27,473
You made him a man.

416
00:31:27,493 --> 00:31:30,889
Do not ask me to do it
for your other sons.

417
00:31:31,804 --> 00:31:33,344
I am not a whore.

418
00:31:33,366 --> 00:31:37,354
Oh, no. Just for me!

419
00:31:38,571 --> 00:31:41,922
(Loud chatter
fills the hall)

420
00:31:51,124 --> 00:31:53,157
Can you keep a secret?

421
00:31:53,178 --> 00:31:54,125
(Giggles)

422
00:31:54,150 --> 00:31:56,045
No.

423
00:31:57,390 --> 00:31:59,391
(Howling)

424
00:32:02,161 --> 00:32:06,197
(Music and chatter fill the hall)

425
00:32:14,319 --> 00:32:17,302
What's the matter
with you, my love?

426
00:32:19,691 --> 00:32:22,658
You don't talk,
you don't smile.

427
00:32:36,589 --> 00:32:38,590
(Gasps in pain)

428
00:32:42,461 --> 00:32:43,761
(Kiss)

429
00:32:47,325 --> 00:32:50,694
My love, you must do
better than this.

430
00:32:53,552 --> 00:32:56,052
You know something?

431
00:32:57,688 --> 00:33:02,483
My wife has got the
most beautiful breasts.

432
00:33:02,496 --> 00:33:05,688
I keep telling her,

433
00:33:05,708 --> 00:33:08,368
but she doesn't
believe me.

434
00:33:08,394 --> 00:33:13,043
She has the most beautiful
breasts in the world.

435
00:33:13,065 --> 00:33:15,633
(Music stops, chatter quiets down)

436
00:33:15,968 --> 00:33:19,167
They're like
Freya's breasts.

437
00:33:19,186 --> 00:33:21,823
The breasts of a goddess.

438
00:33:22,180 --> 00:33:23,913
<i>Man: Hmm...</i>

439
00:33:23,932 --> 00:33:26,497
Sigvard: Let me show you.

440
00:33:26,912 --> 00:33:28,444
(Fabric rips, knife slices through)

441
00:33:28,464 --> 00:33:30,502
(Gasps and shrieks of horror)

442
00:33:30,549 --> 00:33:33,551
Sigvard: (Screaming in pain)

443
00:33:43,962 --> 00:33:45,482
(Unsheathing sword)

444
00:33:49,664 --> 00:33:51,764
(Horrified gasps)

445
00:33:51,796 --> 00:33:53,636
(Hard thud)

446
00:33:56,007 --> 00:33:57,808
(Blood drips)

447
00:34:00,345 --> 00:34:02,613
(Grunted breath)

448
00:34:02,714 --> 00:34:05,049
<i>(Whispers fill the hall)</i>

449
00:34:07,232 --> 00:34:11,832
Aslaug: The giant king's servants
carried a trencher into the hall

450
00:34:11,845 --> 00:34:15,268
and set it down
before the throne.

451
00:34:15,281 --> 00:34:18,816
They heaped it with
hunks of chopped meat,

452
00:34:18,843 --> 00:34:24,780
and it reminded Thor that rather too long
had gone by since they had last eaten.

453
00:34:24,802 --> 00:34:27,115
Ubbe: Thor was so hungry!

454
00:34:27,131 --> 00:34:31,930
A chair was provided for Loki
at one end of the trencher,

455
00:34:31,956 --> 00:34:34,924
and for Logi at the other.

456
00:34:34,958 --> 00:34:37,092
(Footsteps scuff)

457
00:34:40,819 --> 00:34:43,354
<i>(Eagle cries)</i>

458
00:34:46,230 --> 00:34:48,498
(Footsteps scuff)

459
00:34:50,896 --> 00:34:53,898
(Ominous music)

460
00:34:58,536 --> 00:35:01,400
<i>Aslaug: At the word
from the giant king,</i>

461
00:35:01,413 --> 00:35:04,052
<i>they both began to eat.</i>

462
00:35:05,183 --> 00:35:09,417
They gobbled and
consumed and devoured.

463
00:35:09,448 --> 00:35:11,215
Ubbe and Hvitserk: (Giggle)

464
00:35:11,663 --> 00:35:14,892
Each of them ate as
fast as they could,

465
00:35:14,905 --> 00:35:16,951
edging their
chair forward,

466
00:35:16,983 --> 00:35:21,766
and they met at the
middle of the trencher.

467
00:35:21,786 --> 00:35:28,885
Loki had eaten every scrap of meat
and left nothing but the bones.

468
00:35:30,302 --> 00:35:33,304
(Fire crackles)

469
00:35:38,749 --> 00:35:42,818
(Blade rings, Rollo
breathes angrily)

470
00:35:45,557 --> 00:35:48,066
Siggy: Where are you going?

471
00:35:52,083 --> 00:35:54,084
(Door slams shut)

472
00:35:55,227 --> 00:35:57,394
(Fire crackles)

473
00:35:59,797 --> 00:36:04,101
But Loki had not
only eaten the meat,

474
00:36:04,121 --> 00:36:08,746
he had eaten the bones,
and the trencher as well.

475
00:36:08,759 --> 00:36:11,311
Ubbe: I think Loki won.

476
00:36:12,269 --> 00:36:13,736
(Gasps awake)

477
00:36:24,289 --> 00:36:26,624
<i>(Long, slow exhale)</i>

478
00:36:26,691 --> 00:36:30,794
(Distant echo of bones rattling)

479
00:36:41,588 --> 00:36:43,726
Who is it?

480
00:36:47,325 --> 00:36:50,249
Seer: Yes, I can see,

481
00:36:50,274 --> 00:36:53,257
and I see an eagle.

482
00:36:54,419 --> 00:36:59,313
<i>I see that an eagle
hovers over you.</i>

483
00:36:59,961 --> 00:37:06,841
But I also see that you
yourself are the eagle.

484
00:37:08,266 --> 00:37:10,601
<i>(Shuddering breath)</i>

485
00:37:12,704 --> 00:37:15,544
(Echo of bones rattling)

486
00:37:20,612 --> 00:37:22,613
<i>(Wings beating)</i>

487
00:37:25,396 --> 00:37:30,786
<i>Aslaug: (Whispering) "I would
say," proclaimed the giant king,</i>

488
00:37:30,806 --> 00:37:34,170
<i>"that Loki is the loser."</i>

489
00:37:35,326 --> 00:37:38,739
Hush, Ubba. Hvitserk
is nearly asleep.

490
00:37:38,752 --> 00:37:40,592
Now you go to sleep.

491
00:37:40,614 --> 00:37:42,801
Ubbe: (Whispering)
I don't want to.

492
00:37:42,827 --> 00:37:44,681
(Whispering) Why not?

493
00:37:44,712 --> 00:37:49,749
(Whispering) Because whenever you dream,
you never know what is going to happen!

494
00:37:55,990 --> 00:37:58,992
(Running footsteps)

495
00:38:06,100 --> 00:38:08,034
(Lock clunks shut)

496
00:38:08,102 --> 00:38:09,642
<i>Men: (Groggy waking murmurs)</i>

497
00:38:09,667 --> 00:38:12,293
- What's happening?
- Hey! What?

498
00:38:12,725 --> 00:38:14,816
All you folk in the barn,

499
00:38:14,829 --> 00:38:18,440
if you want to
live, stay silent.

500
00:38:18,446 --> 00:38:20,373
<i>Nothing will happen to you.</i>

501
00:38:20,434 --> 00:38:21,867
Man: Shh!

502
00:38:22,583 --> 00:38:25,618
(Fire crackles)

503
00:38:28,022 --> 00:38:30,923

<i>Men: (Alarmed shouting) No! No! Fire!</i>

505
00:38:36,851 --> 00:38:39,966
<i>Young man: (Shouting)
Let us out! Let us out!</i>

Torstein: Where have you been?

507
00:38:51,589 --> 00:38:55,091
Floki: Here and there.
Up and down.

508
00:38:55,119 --> 00:38:57,035
Rollo: Where is Bjorn?

509
00:38:57,060 --> 00:39:00,160
He is supposed
to be with you.

510
00:39:00,178 --> 00:39:02,879
Floki: I don't know, Rollo.

511
00:39:04,356 --> 00:39:06,524
Rollo: Let's go.

512
00:39:06,665 --> 00:39:09,204
(Approaching footsteps)

513
00:39:09,247 --> 00:39:11,452
Bjorn: (Sniffs)

514
00:39:12,604 --> 00:39:14,991
It is fine, come.

515
00:39:25,296 --> 00:39:27,457
You can sleep here.

516
00:39:31,329 --> 00:39:32,876
No,

517
00:39:32,901 --> 00:39:34,168
I can't.

518
00:39:34,199 --> 00:39:37,441
Of course you can.
Why not?

519
00:39:38,443 --> 00:39:40,510
This is your place.

520
00:39:40,535 --> 00:39:42,868
I cannot sleep here.

521
00:39:42,887 --> 00:39:45,215
Well, don't you want to?

522
00:39:45,242 --> 00:39:49,725
What does it matter
what I want to do?

523
00:39:50,628 --> 00:39:54,725
Well, what if I ordered
you to stay here?

524
00:39:55,893 --> 00:40:00,187
Then I would have to...

525
00:40:00,212 --> 00:40:02,532
heed your command.

526
00:40:04,836 --> 00:40:07,572
I don't want to order you.

527
00:40:08,793 --> 00:40:11,611
I want you to choose
to stay here.

528

(Clothes rustling)

529
00:40:21,183 --> 00:40:24,067
Is this what you want,

530
00:40:24,101 --> 00:40:26,360
master?

531
00:40:28,066 --> 00:40:30,401
