"Previously on "Vikings":" "Why do you not go home?" "By staying you've given me time to raise a large army." "Your lands are lost, invaded by Jarl Borg." "Your family has fled only the gods know where." "I must find my family." "If I can be of help to king Horik" "Then I'm happy to stay." "Then so be it." "Your friends will be leaving at first light." "Their forces have divided," "Four of their ships have sailed away." "Aghhh!" "Ugh!" "Here is your destiny, apostate!" "Wait!" "Cut him down." "I'm happy that Ragnar Lothbrok has returned." "I will kill him!" "We have no chance at defeating Jarl Borg." "Then we find more men." "There are no more to find." "I have tried." "It has been a long time." "Hello, Ragnar." "♪ More, give me more ♪" "♪ give me more ♪" "♪ if I had a heart I could love you ♪" "♪ if I had a voice I would sing ♪" "♪ after the night when I wake up ♪" "♪ I'll see what tomorrow brings ♪" "♪ I..." "I..." "I... ♪" "♪ if I had a voice I would sing ♪" "Lagertha, you're the last person I expected to see here." "You and your warriors are as welcome to us" "As spring after the hardest and most bitter winter." "Rollo, my son and I are only too glad" "To come to Ragnar's aid." "Freya and all the gods, Bjorn," "You're a big bastard now." "Thank you, Uncle." "Still can't grow a beard, though." "Everything is new now." "Good to see you, Bjorn." " Yes..." " Yes." "You stayed true to your path." "Siggy!" "You see him, Helga?" "He's all grown up!" "I missed you so much." "You look stronger than your father." "Come, what have they been feeding you?" "!" "You look like you've been eating a cow a day." "You are the one to talk." "I am grateful to see you." "Thank you, princess Aslaug." "Princess." "Ubbe and Hvitserk." "I am pleased to see you." "I always knew that, some day," "I would meet some more of Ragnar's sons." "How did you know?" "And you have a baby?" "May I?" "His name is Sigurd snake-in-the-eye." "After your father?" "And after his own father." "Enough with the pleasantries, let's make a plan." "So?" "Even with your additional forces, Lagertha," "We cannot attack Kattegat and hope to succeed." "Jarl Borg is well dug in." "What do you propose?" "We want to drive Jarl Borg out of Kattegat." "He has no idea we have been reinforced." "And what would make him leave Kattegat" "Where he can winter in safety?" "The one thing that would threaten" "His whole existence there." "And what would that be?" "Food." "A few of us will go into the town" "And destroy the winter grain stores." "I will do it!" "I will go." "No." "My son and I shall go." "We'll only need a few men." "Don't think we will be long now." "Seems to me the case is quite clear." "Encompass everything else we've discussed..." "Yes, yes." "Thank you." "I cannot see your face." "I am ex-wife of Christ:" "A nun." "I cannot show my face to any man." "Well, I am not "any man."" "I am King Ecbert" "And you will show me your face" "Or I will be unable to judge" "Whether or not you're telling me the truth." "Who did this to you?" "My husband." "He claimed I had been unfaithful." "And were you..." "Unfaithful?" "no." "Hmm..." "What do pagans say of such cases?" "If she was a free woman," "They would believe her word," "And make judgment on her behalf." "But surely her husband has every right over her?" "Surely she belongs to him, to do with as he sees fit." "Not according to the pagans." "Then pagan laws are superior to ours?" "Not in every case, sire." "Woman, I find it unlawful and disagreeable" "That your husband should make false claims against you." "He has provided no evidence of your cupidity." "Therefore, I dismiss his demand to have you branded in public." "Thank you." "Oh, thank you, lord." "Oh, well, don't thank me." "Thank this pagan." "Olrik, Erik, sneak through the water to the docks." "Once there, create a... distraction," "Something that will lead the guards away." "My son and I shall do the rest." "Not long till sunrise." "It's been long in coming." "Don't fear death." "If it comes, embrace it" "As if you're lying down next to a beautiful woman." "May the fates be kind, Olrik." "Ever since you were eight years old," "All I heard was, "father, father," "I want to come with you, I'm ready." "Father, I want to fight."" "Well, here we are." "You're right." "On the South side." "Look what we have to eat." "Now!" "Hey!" "Over there!" "Take your weapons!" "Go!" "This way!" "Move!" "Where are they?" "!" "Can you see them!" "split up." "Stop!" "Ungh!" "guards:" "Now!" "Yah!" "Ungh!" "Aghhhhhhhhh!" "This way!" "Bring the dogs!" "I can't see anyone!" "Get more men!" "there!" "Ragnar." "It's me." "Olrik, come quick!" "Help." "Come on!" "How bad is it?" "I'm fine, don't worry about me." "Over here!" "Something is over here!" "Do you see them?" "!" "Take it." "Where'd they go?" "Watch out!" "Ungh!" "Over there!" "There!" "There!" "Quickly!" "Wait!" "Come, come." "The grain!" "What are you thinking of doing?" "I'm thinking of hunting down the men who despoiled and destroyed our winter supplies." "This is a disgusting place." "I don't want to be left alone here." "I am with child!" "Let's go." "Ho!" "Yah!" "Go on!" "Come on." "Yah!" "Agghhh!" "Keep the shield-wall!" "Ungh!" "Aggghhhh!" " Yahhhh!" " Ungh!" "Yah!" "Agh!" "Arrgghhh!" "Yah!" "Ungh!" "Yah!" "Agghhh!" "Agh!" "Brace!" "Brace!" "Be ready!" "Stay on your feet!" "Go!" "Agghhh!" "Oof!" "Get up!" "Get up!" "Aghhh!" "Oof!" "Ungh!" "Aghhhhh!" "Oof!" "Torstein!" "Agghhhh!" " Aggghhhhhhhh!" " Ungh!" "I'm with you, brother!" " Yah!" " Agghhh!" "Ungh!" "Yah!" "Ungh!" "Ragnar!" "Oof!" "Ungh!" " Retreat!" " Follow Jarl Borg!" " Retreat!" "Go!" " Quickly!" "Make for the horses!" "They're running!" "Hold on!" " Go!" " Come on!" "You fought well today, bjorn." "Thank you, Uncle." "You have a lot to learn." "Let's go." "Ragnar Lothbrok!" "He's back!" " Look!" " Ragnar!" "He's home!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Ragnar!" "Ragnar!" " Floki!" " Elisef!" "We are so glad to see you all." "We've been to hell and back." "Now it's time to celebrate." "Uncle!" " How are you?" " I'm alright." "Lagertha!" "She's back!" "We've missed you!" "Lagertha!" "We've missed you so much!" "How was it?" "Yes, quite well!" "We could do some more..." "Some more trade." " Here, will you try some?" " They're all the same." "My lord Aethelwulf." "I heard the pagans captured you when they raided Lindisfarne." "Is that where you're from, Northumbria?" "Yes." "My father is making plans to visit" "The king of Northumbria." "Perhaps we will take you with us." "What for?" "Father Cuthbert is dead," "The monks are gone, the monastery is burned." "What is left for me there?" "Perhaps you've lost interest in your heavenly father?" "Is it true you're a pagan now?" "We are christians here." "My father served at the court of the emperor charlemagne," "The most devout of men." "If I were you," "I would not forget to attend high mass..." "That is, if you value your soul." "Bread!" "No stone in this bread!" "Best bread you can buy!" "Bread!" " Fine, we'll take one." " Introduce them!" "Mary, mother of Jesus." "I just wanted to thank you." "That's..." "I'm glad." "No woman should be treated like that," "Especially not a christian." "Another one on the way for her and her boys." "On this day, we offer a sacrifice to Odin," "The mighty one," "Release him from his bonds." "I know he will want to die well." "man 2:" "Kneel." "In the presence of the gods, and in their honor," "I offer this sacrifice." "Stop!" "Father?" "In the presence of the gods, and in their honor," "I offer this sacrifice." "I love two women." "Both of them have given me children." "And you suppose you must choose between them?" "No." "I don't want to choose." "I would like to have both of them." "I see." "You know, of course, the story of the marriage" "Between Njord and Skadi?" "Skadi was a giantess." "Her father was killed." "She strode to Askard to get justice" "And the gods asked her if she wanted gold" "For the death of her father." ""I'll settle for a husband," she said," ""and a bellyful of laughter."" "This is going to be a long story." "If you are hundreds of years old," "Then it's a very quick story." "Hmm." "The gods conferred and agreed" "That skadi could choose a husband from among them," "But they made one condition:" "That she chose him by his feet." "His feet?" "Yes." "And skadi lost no time in choosing" "The most shapely pair of feet," "Believing they would naturally belong to Balder," "The most handsome of the gods." "But they didn't?" "No." "They belonged to the God Njord," "The lord of seafarers and sea harvests." "His skin was old and weathered." "What are you talking about?" "I don't want to make a choice between them," "But if I did," "Are you saying that I should decide" "Based on the appearance of their feet?" "Neither their feet nor their faces." "You should examine their hearts, their livers," "And every other organ." "In any case, it makes no difference." "You are only fooling yourself, Ragnar Lothbrok," "If you think the choice is yours to make." "Accipite et bibite ex eo omes" "Hic est enim calix sanguinis mei..." "Qui pro vobis et effundetur." "Corpus christi." "Corpus christi." "Sanguinis christi." "Sanguinis christi." "Sanguinis christi." "Sanguinis christi." "Et pro multis in remissionem peccatorum..." "Me sterium fide." "Corpus christi." "Corpus christi." "Corpus christi." "Corpus christi." "Corpus christi." "Corpus christi." "Corpus christi." "Sanguinis christi." "Corpus christi." "Sanguinis christi." " Quickly!" "Quickly!" " Come along!" " Oh!" " I got you!" "Agh!" "You have to be stronger than that!" "Hvitserk, when you grow bigger, I'll teach you to hunt." "Ubbe!" "Whoa!" "It is good to see them playing together." "Agh!" "You have to pull!" " For you." " Mmm..." "They are all my children." "What are you boys doing?" "There!" "You have it!" "I am going to bear you another son." "I know." "What are you doing, huh?" "But I am fearful of the prophecy." "Caught you there!" "What are you going to do about Lagertha?" "What do you mean what am I going to do?" "Stronger than this!" "It is her decision." "I've never had a choice whether she comes or goes." "I will not tell her to go away," "If she does not want to." "Then, if you like, I shall go away!" "Oh, stop!" "No doubt you prefer her because she is a Shield-Maiden." "A warrior." "In that way, she is more like you." "What are you going to do?" "I don't want either of you to leave." "I want you both to stay." "I want to believe you love me." "Then believe me!" "Hmm?" "Thank you." "I came to talk to..." "We all know why you're here." "I was wondering-you were wondering what I was going to do." "Yes." "Regarding my son." "I don't know what to do." "Then he should stay." "You both should stay." "Your wife would not be happy." "I imagine not." "I think Ragnar is still in love with Lagertha." "Are you?" "In a way, yes." "And yet, it seems to be another rollo" "Who still loves her." "I am like a snake which has shed its skin." "The pattern is just the same, but the snake is new." "And this new rollo does not love Lagertha," "Or suffer from desires for her." "Does that answer your question?" "Please, lord, hear my prayer." "I am weak." "Make me strong." "Come into me again, lord." "Ravish me." "Open my eyes, lord, to the truth." "To your presence." "Why don't you show yourself to me?" "Let me be filled again, lord, by the holy spirit." "you devil!" "You devil!" "I think he's ***." "Just assume that we shall find him guilty" "And confiscate his land." "Yes!" "Yes!" "But, on this occasion," "I believe he should keep his land..." "And the accusers should give him..." "Three sheep?" "All in favor, say baaaaah." "Baaaaaaah." "Ragnar!" "Quiet!" "Thorvard." "My lord Ragnar." "I hope you bring better news than the last." "My lord, after you left," "The Saxons treacherously attacked" "King Horik's camp at Wessex." "There was a terrible slaughter." "A great many warriors perished." "The king and his son only just escaped with their lives." "What about athelstan?" "What happened to athelstan?" "My lord, I don't know of whom you speak." "Why has it taken so long for me to hear this news?" "My lord, bad news travels a great deal slower" "Than good news." "Make way, make way." "It's Lagertha." "Make way, make way." "It's Lagertha." "we shall speak later." "Thank you." "What is wrong?" "I have something important to say." "Should it be said in private?" "No." "I want to say it before everyone." "I have come to a decision." "More than anything in the world," "To stay here with his father." "And who can blame him?" "If you had a father like Ragnar Lothbrok," "Would you not want to stay?" "I happily give my permission to my beloved and only son" "To remain here with his father and his half brothers." "As for me..." "I must go back to my husband." "I have a duty;" "I am a responsible person." "But I leave my son in your good hands." "Look after him, Ragnar." "He's all I have left." "Lagertha." "Thank you." "There are no possible words to describe" "What you have done for us." "I will always be in your debt." "The debt is already paid." "The future is open." "Trust in the gods." "Live for each moment." "Don't take any more shit!" "Who do you think I am?" "!"
