[grunting]

3
00:00:04,606 --> 00:00:05,653
No!

4
00:00:05,797 --> 00:00:07,164
I had a dream.
I saw women dying.

5
00:00:07,165 --> 00:00:09,241
It might have been
Lagertha's village.

6
00:00:09,242 --> 00:00:11,318
It is time to elect a
king for all Norway!

7
00:00:11,435 --> 00:00:13,498
You, Bjorn Ironside.

8
00:00:13,523 --> 00:00:14,554
Where's Hvitserk?

9
00:00:14,579 --> 00:00:16,031
You have just betrayed
me for the second time.

10
00:00:16,055 --> 00:00:18,325
I have nothing left to say to you

11
00:00:18,326 --> 00:00:19,815
[screaming]

12
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,383
[Ivar] Your fate is
to be killed by me.

13
00:00:22,407 --> 00:00:24,381
The bandits who attacked us
will come back

14
00:00:24,406 --> 00:00:28,179
We must all prepare to fight
and defend what is ours.

15
00:00:28,204 --> 00:00:29,941
You will be the king! That
should be enough for you!

16
00:00:29,942 --> 00:00:31,590
But don't ever betray me!

17
00:00:31,591 --> 00:00:33,898
If you help me, I can give
you everything you want.

18
00:00:33,923 --> 00:00:36,097
I would just like to
overthrow Prince Oleg.

19
00:00:36,098 --> 00:00:38,189
We agree to your plan.

20
00:00:38,190 --> 00:00:40,166
Send word out to all the kings
and Jarls to gather here.

21
00:00:40,190 --> 00:00:43,074
To elect Bjorn Ironside
King of all Norway

22
00:00:43,099 --> 00:00:44,789
["If I Had A Heart" playing]

23
00:01:42,260 --> 00:01:48,136
[indistinct chatter]

24
00:01:54,584 --> 00:01:56,662
Jarl Thorkell!

25
00:01:56,687 --> 00:01:58,337
- [Thorkell] King Olaf.
- Greetings!

26
00:01:58,362 --> 00:02:00,414
- Welcome.
- I was surprised

27
00:02:00,439 --> 00:02:02,006
to receive your summons.

28
00:02:02,031 --> 00:02:02,998
Is it really true

29
00:02:03,054 --> 00:02:06,588
that you want us all to vote
for a king of all Norway?

30
00:02:07,165 --> 00:02:08,378
If it wasn't true

31
00:02:08,403 --> 00:02:12,327
I wouldn't have wasted your
time by summoning you here.

32
00:02:12,597 --> 00:02:16,064
You are asking us all to renounce

33
00:02:16,089 --> 00:02:18,490
that which is most dear
and precious to us.

34
00:02:20,299 --> 00:02:21,663
Our power.

35
00:02:21,688 --> 00:02:23,760
Oh, Thorkell,

36
00:02:23,982 --> 00:02:28,697
your power resides
in your prestige.

37
00:02:28,722 --> 00:02:31,347
In the willingness of
your warriors to fight

38
00:02:31,348 --> 00:02:33,312
and die for you.

39
00:02:33,337 --> 00:02:34,462
That will not change.

40
00:02:34,889 --> 00:02:38,599
All I am asking, that there
should be an overlord,

41
00:02:38,875 --> 00:02:42,331
To whom we could all owe our allegiance

42
00:02:42,356 --> 00:02:46,401
A king of all Norway
who will defend us

43
00:02:46,449 --> 00:02:48,995
from all external forces.

44
00:02:49,372 --> 00:02:51,457
That is my dream.

45
00:02:51,497 --> 00:02:55,437
Surely that's not too
much to ask, is it?

46
00:03:01,098 --> 00:03:04,348
[horses approach]

47
00:03:05,087 --> 00:03:06,947
[child making bird call]

48
00:03:17,861 --> 00:03:21,885
[indistinct chatter]

49
00:03:21,886 --> 00:03:23,455
[Lagertha] Thank the gods!

50
00:03:23,565 --> 00:03:25,412
You're here.

51
00:03:25,413 --> 00:03:27,261
[exhales]

52
00:03:31,024 --> 00:03:32,513
But why?

53
00:03:33,397 --> 00:03:34,767
I had a dream, Lagertha.

54
00:03:36,014 --> 00:03:37,865
And in my dream, your
village was attacked.

55
00:03:38,999 --> 00:03:40,597
So, I wanted to be with you.

56
00:03:40,648 --> 00:03:42,378
You and Torvi's children.

57
00:03:43,078 --> 00:03:45,934
I was afraid that
something had happened.

58
00:03:47,334 --> 00:03:49,306
Hali is dead.

59
00:03:49,658 --> 00:03:50,909
[exhales]

60
00:03:51,319 --> 00:03:52,587
It was my fault.

61
00:03:52,788 --> 00:03:54,076
I did not protect him.

62
00:03:54,259 --> 00:03:55,507
I failed.

63
00:03:56,985 --> 00:03:59,542
He's buried not far
from a village

64
00:03:59,698 --> 00:04:01,910
which he tried to protect.

65
00:04:01,911 --> 00:04:04,568
With all the others who
also died in the raid.

66
00:04:04,569 --> 00:04:05,710
So it's true?

67
00:04:05,735 --> 00:04:08,165
Your dream? Yes. We were
attacked by bandits.

68
00:04:09,159 --> 00:04:11,408
The same bandits that Bjorn
branded and released.

69
00:04:11,409 --> 00:04:13,107
Then, perhaps Bjorn
made a mistake?

70
00:04:13,132 --> 00:04:14,204
He should never
have released them.

71
00:04:14,228 --> 00:04:16,471
Don't talk of mistakes!
We all make mistakes,

72
00:04:16,496 --> 00:04:20,549
Sometimes for bad reasons
and sometimes for good ones

73
00:04:20,997 --> 00:04:22,567
In any case,

74
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,532
it is not important anymore.

75
00:04:24,557 --> 00:04:26,648
What's important is
that I am certain,

76
00:04:26,673 --> 00:04:28,766
since they did not manage
to steal our grain,

77
00:04:29,034 --> 00:04:31,207
that they will
attack again soon.

78
00:04:32,026 --> 00:04:33,917
It is a good thing
that we are here.

79
00:04:34,466 --> 00:04:36,638
We have to make plans.

80
00:04:37,283 --> 00:04:38,953
Even with your shield-maidens,

81
00:04:38,978 --> 00:04:41,132
I'm not sure we can resist
White Hair and his bandits,

82
00:04:41,157 --> 00:04:43,757
not a second time.

83
00:04:45,452 --> 00:04:49,105
Those are not words I ever
expected to hear from Lagertha,

84
00:04:49,130 --> 00:04:51,770
the famous shield-maiden.

85
00:04:53,681 --> 00:04:56,370
Perhaps that Lagertha
is already dead.

86
00:04:58,794 --> 00:05:00,484
I buried her myself.

87
00:05:01,629 --> 00:05:02,996
Then I had to dig her up again.

88
00:05:04,486 --> 00:05:06,457
But she is not the same.

89
00:05:07,384 --> 00:05:09,073
She can never be the same.

90
00:05:17,191 --> 00:05:19,858

94
00:05:36,823 --> 00:05:39,264
Yes, yes! Come on!

95
00:05:39,656 --> 00:05:41,344
- Push!
- [grunting]

96
00:05:41,345 --> 00:05:44,646
- Push and push and push! Here!
- [grunts]

97
00:05:44,647 --> 00:05:47,221
Come on! Help me out! Come on!

98
00:05:48,871 --> 00:05:51,968
Come on, guys! Come on!
Go on! Help me!

99
00:05:51,969 --> 00:05:55,228
Come on! Come on! Help me!

100
00:05:55,229 --> 00:05:58,167
Yes! Well done! You! You push!
You! You push!

101
00:05:58,168 --> 00:06:00,260
Push! Come on!

102
00:06:02,951 --> 00:06:04,278
Push! Come on, help push!

103
00:06:04,340 --> 00:06:06,302
Hvitserk! What is this?

104
00:06:06,383 --> 00:06:10,393
This is one of the iron gates that
Ivar made to protect the town.

105
00:06:11,406 --> 00:06:13,190
But what do you want it for?

106
00:06:14,274 --> 00:06:16,044
I need it for my own protection!

107
00:06:17,041 --> 00:06:19,876
It's the only way to
keep out the ghosts!

108
00:06:21,467 --> 00:06:22,955
Go on! Push it! Come on!

109
00:06:24,484 --> 00:06:30,272
Come on! Yes! Go on!

110
00:06:32,194 --> 00:06:33,585

Heh!

00:06:40,060 --> 00:06:41,106
[woman] Inge has them.

114
00:06:41,312 --> 00:06:44,212
[woman 2] Come, Inge. Come.
Bring some more!

115
00:06:44,886 --> 00:06:46,809
[man] Who did this?

116
00:06:48,668 --> 00:06:49,668
Hi!

117
00:06:52,410 --> 00:06:53,738

120
00:07:00,285 --> 00:07:03,067
[woman 4] Yeah. Keep going.
Yeah. One more.

00:07:04,638 --> 00:07:05,957
[Lagertha grunts]

122
00:07:06,449 --> 00:07:09,933
[woman 5] Good, huh? It's finished.
Next one.

[girl 2 making bird call]

125
00:07:19,788 --> 00:07:21,467
They won't expect this.

126
00:07:23,186 --> 00:07:24,230
No.

127
00:07:24,325 --> 00:07:26,739
But who knows if it's enough?

128
00:07:32,161 --> 00:07:34,210
Have you heard
anything from Bjorn?

129
00:07:37,623 --> 00:07:39,623
I know he will return

130
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:43,240
Yes.

131
00:07:44,479 --> 00:07:46,837
[man] Yes, push against it.
That's it. Good.

132
00:07:47,742 --> 00:07:49,065
Look!

133
00:07:57,104 --> 00:08:00,366
[woman 2] Fasten it more! Not
with that... Not with that rope,

134
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:01,897
with the good rope.

135
00:08:02,044 --> 00:08:03,184
Yes, that's right.

136
00:08:03,664 --> 00:08:04,664
[man 2] Hard work.

137
00:08:05,034 --> 00:08:06,273
[woman 3] Oh, I'm tired.

[chuckles]

141
00:08:22,496 --> 00:08:23,882
[woman] Smells good.

142
00:08:24,315 --> 00:08:28,568
[woman 2] I was so thirsty.
[woman 1] Yes.

143
00:08:28,635 --> 00:08:29,635
[woman 3] Too much.

144
00:08:29,686 --> 00:08:31,244
[woman 1] It will be.
Worth the wait.

145
00:08:32,911 --> 00:08:35,309
[woman 4] Who does
she think she is?

146
00:08:36,427 --> 00:08:38,918
[woman 3] Of course.
It's a long way.

147
00:08:40,540 --> 00:08:42,468
What is it that you see?

148
00:08:43,494 --> 00:08:44,974
[Runa] I see myself, Lagertha.

149
00:08:45,951 --> 00:08:48,349
That's how I was, all
those years ago.

150
00:08:48,532 --> 00:08:50,649
That's how we all were.

151
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,197
[Runa] It's like seeing ghosts.

152
00:08:54,792 --> 00:08:56,550
[Eira] For some reason,
I want to weep.

153
00:08:57,737 --> 00:09:00,413
But for as much joy
to see myself again.

154
00:09:01,734 --> 00:09:03,952
Come. Join our feast.

155
00:09:04,183 --> 00:09:06,560
We will be
shield-maidens together.

156
00:09:06,887 --> 00:09:07,887
Yes!

160
00:09:15,388 --> 00:09:16,175
Skol!

161
00:09:16,347 --> 00:09:18,396
[all] Skol!

162
00:09:24,601 --> 00:09:26,243

163
00:09:27,213 --> 00:09:30,369
[breathing heavily]

164
00:09:41,699 --> 00:09:45,823
Go away! Leave me alone!
Go away!

165
00:09:48,613 --> 00:09:52,328
[breathing heavily]

[screams]

168
00:09:57,643 --> 00:09:59,081
[Thora] Look at me, Hvitserk.

169
00:09:59,358 --> 00:10:01,077
Go away! Go away!

170
00:10:01,110 --> 00:10:02,787
Ivar did this to me.

171
00:10:03,862 --> 00:10:05,740
Look at me!

172
00:10:06,272 --> 00:10:07,430
Don't be afraid.

173
00:10:14,605 --> 00:10:16,530
Why have you come back here?

174
00:10:16,861 --> 00:10:18,302
Why do you want to haunt me?

175
00:10:18,329 --> 00:10:20,327
I want revenge.

176
00:10:21,036 --> 00:10:25,717
The only person who can avenge
my death, Hvitserk, is you!

177
00:10:25,742 --> 00:10:27,973
Tell me! Tell me how!

178
00:10:28,248 --> 00:10:30,686
You have to kill Ivar.

179
00:10:30,687 --> 00:10:32,725
Ivar killed me.

180
00:10:32,959 --> 00:10:35,015
He killed my family.

181
00:10:36,481 --> 00:10:38,279
You will do it, won't you?

182
00:10:38,979 --> 00:10:40,304
You will avenge me?

183
00:10:40,813 --> 00:10:42,531
- Yes.
- Promise.

184
00:10:44,153 --> 00:10:46,230
Swear on your sacred arm ring.

185
00:10:51,705 --> 00:10:53,745
[whimpering]

186
00:10:53,770 --> 00:10:54,927
I swear.

187
00:10:58,501 --> 00:11:01,198
I swear. I swear.

188
00:11:01,761 --> 00:11:04,166
I... I told you, I swear!

189
00:11:17,389 --> 00:11:19,227
[Viking 2] Keep pulling!

190
00:11:19,252 --> 00:11:20,331
[Viking 3] Oars!

191
00:11:20,497 --> 00:11:22,896
[Viking 1] Prepare for the approach.
We are almost there!

192
00:11:25,070 --> 00:11:26,508
[indistinct chatter]

193
00:11:32,582 --> 00:11:35,757
[hammering]

194
00:11:35,758 --> 00:11:38,934
[men laugh]

195
00:11:51,841 --> 00:11:54,403
- [grunting]
- [crowd cheers]

196
00:11:55,163 --> 00:11:58,040
I, uh... I would like
to propose a toast

197
00:11:59,175 --> 00:12:01,363
to Bjorn Ironside.

198
00:12:01,388 --> 00:12:02,634
This is our first meeting,

199
00:12:02,659 --> 00:12:05,758
but over the years I've heard
all about your exploits

200
00:12:05,919 --> 00:12:07,913
from the wanderers and
poets in my Great Hall.

201
00:12:07,992 --> 00:12:10,390
It's a great honor to meet
you in person at last

202
00:12:10,882 --> 00:12:11,641
Skol.

203
00:12:11,884 --> 00:12:12,884
Skol.

204
00:12:13,208 --> 00:12:14,686
[all] Skol.

205
00:12:14,901 --> 00:12:16,299
You are too kind.

206
00:12:16,536 --> 00:12:19,263
But I too have heard stories
of Thorkell the Tall

207
00:12:19,288 --> 00:12:21,666
and his brothers Herring
and Earl Sigvald.

208
00:12:21,903 --> 00:12:24,620
In a country such as
ours, as small as ours,

209
00:12:24,994 --> 00:12:26,281
fame spreads easily.

210
00:12:26,306 --> 00:12:27,981
So they say, Bjorn Ironside.

211
00:12:28,023 --> 00:12:33,149
So... the plan is for all of us to
appoint you as king?

212
00:12:33,174 --> 00:12:35,896
Elect him as king, elect.

213
00:12:36,514 --> 00:12:37,496
That is our way.

214
00:12:37,521 --> 00:12:41,030
In which case, King Olaf, I insist
that it must be a real election.

215
00:12:41,054 --> 00:12:44,721
And that anyone else
Be he a king or even a simple yarn like me

216
00:12:44,746 --> 00:12:47,003
can also stand, if they wish.

217
00:12:47,885 --> 00:12:50,236
Oh, in principle, yes.

218
00:12:50,753 --> 00:12:52,134
But you know

219
00:12:52,946 --> 00:12:54,464
how we Norwegians are.

220
00:12:55,313 --> 00:12:58,060
You give them a chance
to quarrel and to fight,

221
00:12:58,373 --> 00:13:01,410
and then they will
quarrel and fight.

222
00:13:01,808 --> 00:13:04,024
Still, Jarl Thorkell
has a point.

223
00:13:04,628 --> 00:13:06,287
Yes. And I agree with him.

224
00:13:06,642 --> 00:13:09,798
Personally, I would never want to be
made king in an uncontested election.

225
00:13:11,783 --> 00:13:14,100
I have no desire to
wear a hollow crown.

226
00:13:17,783 --> 00:13:20,536
As you wish, Bjorn Ironside.

227
00:13:21,108 --> 00:13:22,574
As you wish.

228
00:13:24,334 --> 00:13:25,813
[grunting]

229
00:13:26,534 --> 00:13:27,813
[crowd cheering]

230
00:13:31,293 --> 00:13:34,837
[laughter]

231
00:13:37,910 --> 00:13:42,384
[indistinct chatter]

232
00:13:46,631 --> 00:13:48,790
Bjorn Ironside.

233
00:13:51,269 --> 00:13:52,409
Jarl Hrolf.

234
00:13:56,299 --> 00:13:57,413
Welcome.

235
00:13:58,784 --> 00:14:01,179
I hope we have the
opportunity to talk.

236
00:14:01,398 --> 00:14:03,232
I hope so too, Bjorn Ironside.

237
00:14:03,938 --> 00:14:06,014
Really, I do.

238
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,281
Ah, King Hakon!

239
00:14:14,306 --> 00:14:15,704
Bjorn Ironside.

240
00:14:16,217 --> 00:14:17,393
You don't know this,

241
00:14:17,418 --> 00:14:20,222
but I fought beside you and your
father at the gates of Paris.

242
00:14:20,282 --> 00:14:21,282
Ah!

243
00:14:21,847 --> 00:14:22,886
I was a young man then,

244
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,162
and I still had a right hand.

245
00:14:25,748 --> 00:14:27,084
What happened to your hand?

246
00:14:27,277 --> 00:14:29,276
In a sea battle against him...

247
00:14:29,353 --> 00:14:31,193
Thorkell the Tall.

248
00:14:31,425 --> 00:14:32,752
I was boarding his ship.

249
00:14:33,342 --> 00:14:34,618
The deck was slippery.

250
00:14:34,792 --> 00:14:36,271
I put out my hand
to steady myself

251
00:14:37,033 --> 00:14:39,246
and somebody took the
opportunity to remove it.

252
00:14:39,971 --> 00:14:41,023
[Hakon chuckles]

253
00:14:41,048 --> 00:14:43,566
But now it seems we never
have to fight again.

254
00:14:43,801 --> 00:14:45,083
Not against each other.

255
00:14:45,268 --> 00:14:46,947
Why fight our own countrymen?

256
00:14:47,201 --> 00:14:48,511
It's what we've always done.

257
00:14:48,754 --> 00:14:50,274
That doesn't make it
right or sensible.

258
00:14:50,597 --> 00:14:52,515
The fact is, we need
to unify Norway

259
00:14:53,309 --> 00:14:55,559
to withstand possible attacks
from our larger neighbors,

260
00:14:55,591 --> 00:14:57,552
like Sweden or Denmark.

261
00:14:57,797 --> 00:15:00,495
I agree, it does make
some sort of sense.

262
00:15:00,700 --> 00:15:03,617
And to have a figurehead like
you, Bjorn Ironside, huh?

263
00:15:04,247 --> 00:15:05,247
Son of Ragnar,

264
00:15:05,328 --> 00:15:07,951
who is known and respected
throughout our Viking world.

265
00:15:08,499 --> 00:15:10,499
It makes even more sense, I have to say

266
00:15:11,591 --> 00:15:13,037
You have my vote,

267
00:15:13,495 --> 00:15:14,774
Bjorn Ironside.

268
00:15:19,825 --> 00:15:21,787
Two more ships
have just arrived.

269
00:15:22,327 --> 00:15:25,084
Who knew there were so many
kings and earls in Norway?

270
00:15:25,656 --> 00:15:28,507
It seems that they
grow on trees.

271
00:15:28,532 --> 00:15:30,709
Yes. Let me greet the newcomers.

272
00:15:30,734 --> 00:15:33,751
I can explain our purpose
as well as you do.

273
00:15:34,428 --> 00:15:35,610
Thank you, my friend.

274
00:15:41,961 --> 00:15:44,338
[horse whinnies]

275
00:15:44,575 --> 00:15:46,805
[Rus captain calling out]

276
00:15:53,750 --> 00:15:54,986
My prince.

277
00:15:55,267 --> 00:15:56,706
I'm sure you can hear me.

278
00:15:57,206 --> 00:15:59,323
But you are probably
counting all the furrows

279
00:15:59,411 --> 00:16:02,209
in the lands and the clouds in
the sky that belong to you.

280
00:16:03,653 --> 00:16:05,633
But I want to talk
of something else.

281
00:16:06,454 --> 00:16:11,005
I want to ask you if you would
like to play a trick on poor Dir.

282
00:16:13,563 --> 00:16:15,957
[Igor] What kind of
trick, my dear Boneless?

283
00:16:16,357 --> 00:16:18,978
Something that will
amuse you, I hope.

284
00:16:19,362 --> 00:16:21,011
I like to be amused.

285
00:16:21,380 --> 00:16:22,824
Is it a magic trick?

286
00:16:23,427 --> 00:16:25,172
I like magic tricks.

287
00:16:25,345 --> 00:16:26,870
Yes. It's a magic trick.

288
00:16:27,349 --> 00:16:28,533
What do you say?

289
00:16:28,718 --> 00:16:30,157
Would you like to help me do it?

290
00:16:32,951 --> 00:16:35,149
What are we going to
do, my fellow king?

291
00:16:36,141 --> 00:16:38,339
[chuckles]

292
00:16:40,491 --> 00:16:41,649
[dog barking]

293
00:16:51,192 --> 00:16:52,192
Guards!

294
00:16:58,606 --> 00:17:00,298
Don't just stand there gawping.

295
00:17:00,890 --> 00:17:02,328
Let's see what she's up to!

296
00:17:03,272 --> 00:17:04,522
[guard 1] Who is she?

297
00:17:14,294 --> 00:17:16,570
[breathing heavily]

298
00:17:17,657 --> 00:17:19,096
Help me.

299
00:17:21,773 --> 00:17:23,053
[struggling]

300
00:17:58,774 --> 00:18:00,219
Go, go!

301
00:18:04,368 --> 00:18:09,483
[gasps]

302
00:18:39,220 --> 00:18:40,077
[Rus captain shouts]

303
00:18:40,230 --> 00:18:41,789
Guards! Guards!

304
00:18:42,377 --> 00:18:46,053
[guards shouting indistinctly]

305
00:18:48,235 --> 00:18:53,550
[bell ringing]

306
00:19:05,783 --> 00:19:08,237
[Ivar panting]

307
00:19:08,436 --> 00:19:11,141
- [Ivar] Psst! Take him! Take him.
- [woman] Dir!

308
00:19:15,295 --> 00:19:17,616
[Dir breathing heavily]

309
00:19:28,635 --> 00:19:31,245
[Dir] This is not the
last time, Ivar Lothbrok.

310
00:19:31,813 --> 00:19:33,306
We shall meet again soon.

311
00:19:35,132 --> 00:19:37,131
But for now, good night.

312
00:19:38,484 --> 00:19:39,653
[Ivar] Good night.

313
00:19:41,107 --> 00:19:42,107
Go.

314
00:19:42,243 --> 00:19:43,243
[horse whinnies]

315
00:19:49,113 --> 00:19:50,915
[breathing heavily]

316
00:19:53,244 --> 00:19:54,928
Did we really do that?

317
00:19:55,321 --> 00:19:57,399
[laughs]

318
00:19:58,074 --> 00:19:59,432
Huh?

319
00:20:08,871 --> 00:20:10,408
I want to show you this

320
00:20:11,935 --> 00:20:13,534
I know you cannot read them

321
00:20:13,647 --> 00:20:15,405
but let me explain
what they are.

322
00:20:16,167 --> 00:20:17,367
These are legal documents,

323
00:20:17,565 --> 00:20:19,561
giving the Rus
ancient legal title

324
00:20:19,845 --> 00:20:21,936
to our Scandinavian homelands.

325
00:20:23,607 --> 00:20:25,925
So that our invasion
has legitimate cause.

326
00:20:26,538 --> 00:20:28,760
No. They are
forgeries, of course.

327
00:20:29,931 --> 00:20:31,337
But a forged title, my friend,

328
00:20:31,362 --> 00:20:32,965
is better than no title at all.

329
00:20:33,630 --> 00:20:35,848
- [servant speaks indistinctly]
- Oh, our food!

330
00:20:55,425 --> 00:20:56,614
Who are these?

331
00:20:56,659 --> 00:20:58,456
The guards who allowed
my brother to escape.

332
00:21:00,361 --> 00:21:01,747
We tortured them, of course.

333
00:21:03,259 --> 00:21:04,373
What did they say?

334
00:21:04,500 --> 00:21:05,500
[Oleg] They said...

335
00:21:05,642 --> 00:21:09,403
they were deliberately distracted by
a naked woman and left their posts.

336
00:21:11,186 --> 00:21:12,338
They saw nothing else.

337
00:21:14,332 --> 00:21:15,650
And now they never will.

338
00:21:22,975 --> 00:21:25,930
I suppose you know nothing
about Dir's escape, do you?

339
00:21:29,158 --> 00:21:30,158
Igor?

340
00:21:30,676 --> 00:21:31,676
No.

341
00:21:37,556 --> 00:21:40,780
You understand that with Dir
free, you are in more danger

342
00:21:40,781 --> 00:21:43,137
of being kidnapped than ever,

343
00:21:44,516 --> 00:21:45,516
hmm?

344
00:21:50,521 --> 00:21:52,436
Now I have a more pleasant duty.

345
00:21:53,604 --> 00:21:55,388
I am to be married again.

346
00:21:56,983 --> 00:21:59,340
I want to introduce you
to my intended bride.

347
00:22:01,229 --> 00:22:02,747
This is Princess Katia.

348
00:22:10,741 --> 00:22:12,549
My dear Katia, may
I present to you

349
00:22:12,574 --> 00:22:15,832
my cousin and ward, Prince Igor.

350
00:22:20,540 --> 00:22:21,540
[Katia] Prince.

351
00:22:21,618 --> 00:22:22,618
[kisses hand]

352
00:22:26,044 --> 00:22:28,930
And this is the Viking
king I told you about.

353
00:22:28,931 --> 00:22:30,343
This is Ivar.

354
00:22:30,932 --> 00:22:33,178
The famous Ivar the Boneless.

355
00:22:36,723 --> 00:22:37,723
Princess.

356
00:22:39,972 --> 00:22:40,972
King Ivar.

357
00:22:42,808 --> 00:22:43,946
Let's eat.

358
00:22:47,037 --> 00:22:49,070
You look as though you
have seen a ghost.

359
00:22:52,033 --> 00:22:53,369
Believe me, I have.

360
00:22:55,671 --> 00:22:56,671
[Oleg] Leave us.

361
00:22:56,997 --> 00:22:58,395
Please, enjoy your food.

362
00:23:00,593 --> 00:23:02,072
[indistinct chatter]

363
00:23:02,097 --> 00:23:03,623
[Lagertha] Make sure it's tight.

364
00:23:09,449 --> 00:23:10,993
It has been a while, Lagertha.

365
00:23:11,179 --> 00:23:13,016
Perhaps they are not
coming back after all?

366
00:23:15,397 --> 00:23:16,549
I hope you're right.

367
00:23:18,117 --> 00:23:19,436
But you don't believe it.

368
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,158
[Lagertha] No.

369
00:23:21,570 --> 00:23:23,607
I think they will come.

370
00:23:25,860 --> 00:23:26,860
[sighs]

371
00:23:27,697 --> 00:23:28,895
[indistinct chatter]

372
00:23:37,133 --> 00:23:40,931
Hmm. I want to consider it.
Yes, we'll talk.

373
00:23:40,932 --> 00:23:44,730
- [Harald laughs]
- [inaudible conversation]

374
00:23:45,888 --> 00:23:49,968
Ah, King Hakon. Speaking of a warrior.
Welcome.

375
00:23:50,638 --> 00:23:51,888
Good to see you here.

376
00:23:52,060 --> 00:23:53,139
Jarl Hrolf.

377
00:23:53,648 --> 00:23:54,648
Good to see you.

378
00:24:11,542 --> 00:24:14,418
[indistinct chatter]

379
00:24:23,769 --> 00:24:25,257
[guard] The gate!

380
00:24:32,445 --> 00:24:36,156
Move along! Move along!
Move along!

381
00:24:36,157 --> 00:24:37,880
Move along. Move along.

382
00:24:37,905 --> 00:24:40,442
Hurry up. Hurry. Hurry up.
Hurry up!

383
00:24:40,467 --> 00:24:41,792
Go! Go!

384
00:24:44,548 --> 00:24:46,386
[indistinct chatter]

385
00:25:12,439 --> 00:25:15,417
[crowd exclaiming]

386
00:25:17,392 --> 00:25:18,392
Princess.

387
00:25:21,030 --> 00:25:24,894
[sighs] I've been waiting for the
opportunity to talk to you privately.

388
00:25:26,927 --> 00:25:30,489
Surely you understand why
I need to talk to you.

389
00:25:33,615 --> 00:25:35,787
Oleg is playing games with me.

390
00:25:37,136 --> 00:25:39,666
And why do you say so,
Ivar the Boneless?

391
00:25:39,691 --> 00:25:41,011
You are Freydis.

392
00:25:41,472 --> 00:25:42,750
Freydis?

393
00:25:43,154 --> 00:25:44,276
I don't understand.

394
00:25:44,541 --> 00:25:45,978
Neither do I.

395
00:25:46,161 --> 00:25:47,938
But it is true. And you and I...

396
00:25:49,338 --> 00:25:50,686
were once married.

397
00:25:52,093 --> 00:25:53,571
Were we really?

398
00:25:54,317 --> 00:25:57,195
And what happened to us?

399
00:26:16,541 --> 00:26:17,982
[sighs]

400
00:26:18,938 --> 00:26:20,057
[hammering]

401
00:26:22,285 --> 00:26:24,521
[indistinct chatter]

402
00:26:37,922 --> 00:26:40,826
[coughing]

403
00:26:41,457 --> 00:26:42,470
Give me.

404
00:26:43,410 --> 00:26:44,808
How do you pay?

405
00:26:45,360 --> 00:26:47,079
You have not paid for days.

406
00:26:47,460 --> 00:26:49,181
I do not give for free.

407
00:26:49,372 --> 00:26:50,543
Give me.

408
00:26:54,257 --> 00:26:55,257
[sighs]

409
00:26:56,879 --> 00:26:58,157
Come on.

410
00:26:58,340 --> 00:26:59,340
You must pay.

411
00:26:59,516 --> 00:27:00,606
Later.

412
00:27:01,010 --> 00:27:02,249
I'll ask my brother, Ubbe.

413
00:27:02,274 --> 00:27:03,792
You know Ubbe, right?
You trust him?

414
00:27:04,490 --> 00:27:05,926
- Yes.
- Good.

415
00:27:05,951 --> 00:27:07,562
But I don't trust you.

416
00:27:08,062 --> 00:27:09,617
So, I give you nothing.

417
00:27:11,101 --> 00:27:14,094
[whispers] Ale. And mushrooms.
Now.

418
00:27:14,789 --> 00:27:17,273
[gasping]

419
00:27:17,298 --> 00:27:18,777
I'll take that.

420
00:27:20,204 --> 00:27:21,204
No.

421
00:27:21,526 --> 00:27:22,844
Then you get nothing.

422
00:27:23,074 --> 00:27:24,586
Only to suffer.

423
00:27:31,492 --> 00:27:33,264
[Hvitserk sniffs]

424
00:27:35,807 --> 00:27:36,885
Come on.

425
00:27:49,155 --> 00:27:51,628
More. More

426
00:27:52,611 --> 00:27:53,777
[grunts]

427
00:28:10,251 --> 00:28:12,320
[tapping]

428
00:28:30,701 --> 00:28:32,797
[Seer in distorted voice]
If you came this way,

429
00:28:33,392 --> 00:28:34,952
taking any route,

430
00:28:35,291 --> 00:28:37,080
starting from anywhere,

431
00:28:37,553 --> 00:28:40,580
at any time or at any season,

432
00:28:41,338 --> 00:28:44,029
it would always be the same.

433
00:28:44,148 --> 00:28:45,644
[whispers] Is that really you?

434
00:28:46,001 --> 00:28:47,798
Could that be you, O Wise One?

435
00:28:48,036 --> 00:28:51,398
[Seer in distorted voice] We are
anyway where we are supposed to be.

436
00:28:51,423 --> 00:28:52,987
I'm not supposed to be here.

437
00:28:53,012 --> 00:28:55,250
Not now, not here.

438
00:28:57,266 --> 00:28:59,969
I had things to do.
I had things to do.

439
00:29:00,336 --> 00:29:04,499
Perhaps what you thought you
came here for is only a shell,

440
00:29:05,015 --> 00:29:08,509
a husk of meaning from
which the purpose breaks

441
00:29:08,534 --> 00:29:11,971
only when it is
fulfilled, if at all.

442
00:29:12,602 --> 00:29:14,642
Either you had no purpose

443
00:29:15,260 --> 00:29:19,624
or the purpose is beyond
the end you figured.

444
00:29:19,936 --> 00:29:22,861
[hesitantly] I have a purpose.
It's just...

445
00:29:24,430 --> 00:29:30,537
at this time, at this place, I
tend to forget. I tend to forget.

446
00:29:32,222 --> 00:29:36,121
[Seer] Do not weep,
Hvitserk, son of Ragnar.

447
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,566
There are other places
also at the world's end,

448
00:29:41,624 --> 00:29:44,191
some at the sea jaws,

449
00:29:44,445 --> 00:29:48,576
or over a dark lake,
in a desert or city.

450
00:29:49,307 --> 00:29:51,025
You're driving me mad!

451
00:29:51,111 --> 00:29:54,210
I drive you mad, if it
makes any difference...

452
00:29:54,349 --> 00:29:57,416
because you are not yet
fit for your purpose.

453
00:29:57,730 --> 00:29:59,808
Your life resembles death.

454
00:30:00,211 --> 00:30:01,618
[yelling] I am dead.

455
00:30:02,999 --> 00:30:08,121
No. Let me repeat, so
you can understand.

456
00:30:08,450 --> 00:30:15,279
Either you had no purpose or the
purpose is beyond the end you figured.

457
00:30:15,437 --> 00:30:17,576
Altered in fulfillment.

458
00:30:18,433 --> 00:30:21,949
Altered in
fulfillment, Hvitserk.

459
00:30:23,282 --> 00:30:25,963
Altered in fulfillment.

460
00:30:27,651 --> 00:30:30,368
[mumbles] Altered
in fulfillment?

461
00:30:35,753 --> 00:30:38,904
[Hvitserk gasps]

462
00:30:39,003 --> 00:30:42,548
Altered in fulfillment?

463
00:30:45,728 --> 00:30:47,846
[indistinct mumbling]

464
00:30:49,764 --> 00:30:52,042
[indistinct chatter]

465
00:31:04,027 --> 00:31:06,029
[Kjetill] An amazing
sight, King Olaf.

466
00:31:06,669 --> 00:31:08,436
[Olaf] So it should be.

467
00:31:08,461 --> 00:31:11,610
For this is an amazing occasion.

468
00:31:11,915 --> 00:31:17,077
Never before have we voted
for a king of all Norway.

469
00:31:19,202 --> 00:31:24,401
It's been a dream of many.
Now, now brought to fruition.

470
00:31:25,558 --> 00:31:28,228
I hope that things
will proceed smoothly.

471
00:31:30,614 --> 00:31:33,793
Do you know any reason
why it should not?

472
00:31:45,915 --> 00:31:48,352
[indistinct chatter]

473
00:32:10,907 --> 00:32:13,055
You are waiting for
someone to return?

474
00:32:16,418 --> 00:32:17,418
Yes.

475
00:32:17,617 --> 00:32:19,091
Your lover?

476
00:32:21,943 --> 00:32:23,131
Did he go with Bjorn?

477
00:32:25,620 --> 00:32:26,620
Yes.

478
00:32:27,891 --> 00:32:29,409
I know how you are feeling.

479
00:32:29,804 --> 00:32:30,855
You can't!

480
00:32:30,950 --> 00:32:33,845
You're the wife of Ubbe,
and I am a servant.

481
00:32:33,878 --> 00:32:35,163
Even if Bjorn survives...

482
00:32:35,188 --> 00:32:36,188
Bjorn?

483
00:32:37,958 --> 00:32:39,473
You are in love with Bjorn?

484
00:32:44,133 --> 00:32:46,445
Then, believe me, I do know.

485
00:32:47,868 --> 00:32:50,225
I stared out to sea and
waited for Bjorn many times.

486
00:32:51,583 --> 00:32:54,695
And each time he came back,
he was always further away.

487
00:32:58,190 --> 00:33:00,487
It will be different with me.

488
00:33:01,590 --> 00:33:02,590
Yes.

489
00:33:10,496 --> 00:33:13,206
[distant drumming]

490
00:33:13,231 --> 00:33:15,588
[crowd cheering]

491
00:33:45,648 --> 00:33:46,760
[Kjetill] Bjorn.

492
00:33:48,786 --> 00:33:49,998
What?

493
00:33:51,931 --> 00:33:53,169
Nothing.

494
00:33:53,405 --> 00:33:55,129
But may the gods be with you.

495
00:34:02,672 --> 00:34:04,247
[sighing]

496
00:34:07,054 --> 00:34:13,553
[drums beating]

497
00:34:54,869 --> 00:35:01,869
[rhythmic drumming]

498
00:35:09,170 --> 00:35:15,604
[indistinct drumming]

499
00:35:19,832 --> 00:35:23,157
Today is an extraordinary

500
00:35:24,421 --> 00:35:26,874
and a unique day

501
00:35:26,900 --> 00:35:31,728
in the history and
saga of our country.

502
00:35:31,977 --> 00:35:35,354
Never before have our rulers

503
00:35:35,633 --> 00:35:40,188
willingly gathered together
to elect one of their numbers

504
00:35:40,394 --> 00:35:43,263
as King of Kings.

505
00:35:43,556 --> 00:35:46,713
King of all Norway!

506
00:35:48,570 --> 00:35:52,378
Many have said that such
a thing is impossible!

507
00:35:52,740 --> 00:35:56,220
That our rulers have
never been able

508
00:35:56,245 --> 00:36:00,001
to see beyond their
own self-interest!

509
00:36:00,774 --> 00:36:03,790
Yet, now, with your own eyes,

510
00:36:04,032 --> 00:36:09,226
you will see the impossible
begin to happen!

511
00:36:10,385 --> 00:36:16,499
When all our votes are
cast into the sea,

512
00:36:16,594 --> 00:36:20,021
we will know the
identity of the man

513
00:36:20,243 --> 00:36:25,283
always fated to be the
king of all Norway!

514
00:36:27,777 --> 00:36:33,009
Each of these runes
represents an earl or a king.

515
00:36:34,782 --> 00:36:37,499
You shall know them
by their color.

516
00:36:37,970 --> 00:36:39,281
For example,

517
00:36:39,906 --> 00:36:45,007
Earl Thorkell is represented
by a blue rune.

518
00:36:45,911 --> 00:36:49,807
King Hakon by a green.

519
00:36:50,952 --> 00:36:53,788
Bjorn Ironside by a red.

520
00:36:54,820 --> 00:36:57,596
King Harald by a yellow.

521
00:36:58,490 --> 00:37:02,392
It falls to me to
cast the first vote.

522
00:37:04,092 --> 00:37:05,665
I vote...

523
00:37:06,426 --> 00:37:09,395
for Bjorn Ironside

524
00:37:10,333 --> 00:37:11,676
as king

525
00:37:13,002 --> 00:37:16,275
of all Norway!

526
00:37:16,671 --> 00:37:22,305
- [drums beating]
- [crowd cheering]

527
00:37:57,939 --> 00:37:59,394
And I...

528
00:38:01,728 --> 00:38:08,400
will also vote for Bjorn Ironside
to be king of all Norway.

529
00:38:10,193 --> 00:38:13,030
[crowd cheering]

530
00:38:32,948 --> 00:38:33,763
Go on.

531
00:38:33,919 --> 00:38:36,016
We were traveling
along the Silk Road.

532
00:38:36,041 --> 00:38:39,182
We'd gone very often talked
to many traders from different countries

533
00:38:39,307 --> 00:38:40,667
when we came to the
kingdom of Rus.

534
00:38:40,740 --> 00:38:43,427
I have heard of it. It was
founded by Rus Vikings.

535
00:38:43,451 --> 00:38:46,034
Yes, some of them could
still speak our language

536
00:38:46,220 --> 00:38:49,176
We were invited into one of their
principal towns, called Novgorod.

537
00:38:49,261 --> 00:38:50,373
Novgorod is a rich place,

538
00:38:50,398 --> 00:38:53,643
for these Rus are very successful
warriors, hunters, and traders.

539
00:38:54,118 --> 00:38:56,016
And they were anxious
to do deals with us,

540
00:38:56,063 --> 00:38:58,414
for they said that we have
many things which they wanted.

541
00:38:58,581 --> 00:39:00,106
[Torvi] But I don't understand.

542
00:39:00,594 --> 00:39:04,231
If you were so successful, then
why did you come back so early?

543
00:39:04,530 --> 00:39:06,804
Surely your mission
is not yet concluded.

544
00:39:07,113 --> 00:39:08,113
[envoy] No.

545
00:39:08,366 --> 00:39:10,566
But we all felt that someone
should return here at once.

546
00:39:10,882 --> 00:39:12,167
To report your success?

547
00:39:12,336 --> 00:39:14,347
[envoy] No. To report
something else.

548
00:39:15,182 --> 00:39:18,542
For while we were in Novgorod, we learned
that someone else was staying with the Rus.

549
00:39:18,893 --> 00:39:20,936
Indeed, living at the palace

550
00:39:21,094 --> 00:39:24,199
in another town called Kiev
with their leader, Prince Oleg.

551
00:39:24,344 --> 00:39:25,833
Ivar?

552
00:39:25,988 --> 00:39:27,067
[envoy] Yes.

553
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,198
They told us that King
Ivar the Boneless,

554
00:39:29,467 --> 00:39:31,944
son of Ragnar Lothbrok,
was their guest.

555
00:39:34,310 --> 00:39:36,546
You have done well to
bring us this news.

556
00:39:39,122 --> 00:39:41,682
I am not surprised to hear that
my little brother is still alive.

557
00:39:43,856 --> 00:39:44,978
Go, and drink.

558
00:39:45,193 --> 00:39:46,311
[envoy] Thank you, Ubbe.

559
00:39:48,859 --> 00:39:50,658
What did you see?

560
00:39:56,100 --> 00:39:57,812
You must tell Hvitserk.

561
00:39:58,134 --> 00:40:00,067
For better or worse,
he needs to know.

562
00:40:02,875 --> 00:40:04,193
[man] Tighter!

563
00:40:05,022 --> 00:40:06,659
Hvitserk!

564
00:40:08,133 --> 00:40:09,771
Hvitserk!

565
00:40:32,070 --> 00:40:34,487
[Ivar in distorted voice]
I'm here, Brother!

566
00:40:36,905 --> 00:40:38,943
[rumbling]

567
00:40:40,983 --> 00:40:42,406
[whimpering]

568
00:40:54,486 --> 00:40:56,967
[panting]

569
00:40:57,233 --> 00:40:58,952
[Ivar in distorted
voice] Is it true?

570
00:40:59,051 --> 00:41:01,478
Did you jump ship to be near me?

571
00:41:03,517 --> 00:41:04,655
[panting]

572
00:41:05,565 --> 00:41:07,603
[Ivar in distorted voice]
Not because you loved me.

573
00:41:08,088 --> 00:41:10,242
[cracking]

574
00:41:12,212 --> 00:41:15,706
But because you neededto be
close enough to kill me?

575
00:41:16,950 --> 00:41:18,978
[Hvitserk whimpers]

576
00:41:22,058 --> 00:41:24,054
[sobbing]

577
00:41:24,079 --> 00:41:25,758
[wood cracking]

578
00:41:36,021 --> 00:41:40,274
[Ivar laughs evilly]

579
00:41:41,330 --> 00:41:42,975
[hisses]

580
00:41:43,030 --> 00:41:44,348
[music playing]
