All language subtitles for S02E07 Blood Eagle-eng

Ragnar:
Previously on "vikings":

I'd like to know
what will happen to me.

Seer:
I see that an eagle
hovers over you,

But I also see that you yourself
are the eagle.

A good sign from the gods.

Ragnar:
Jarl borg must pay the price
for what he did to my family.

We cannot go west
without his ships.

We need him.

Bjorn: What is your name?
Porunn: Porunn.

Bjorn:
Do you have a boyfriend?

Jarl borg:
I hope you were telling me
the truth, rollo.

Siggy:
Everything I do,
I do for rollo.

And you need my help.

You're a greater man
than I am.

Ragnar:
I realised what could be gained
by inviting you.

(doors burst open,
struggling grunts)

Seer:
The eagle is your destiny,
jarl borg.

(pained grunt)

I will draw a blood-eagle
upon your back.

No.

Horik:
Are you going to proceed
with the execution

Of jarl borg?

(hard whack)
I am.

Horik:
I understand your reasons.

At the same time,

Without jarl borg's ships
and warriors,

We cannot hope to mount
a successful raid on wessex.

(wet, squishy sounds
as rat is gutted)

Ragnar:
We will find another ally.
(hard whack)

Horik: When?
Ragnar: Soon.

I have sent out word.

Rollo:
Are you suggesting
that my brother

Should reprieve
jarl borg

Horik:
No. I am merely asking you
stay your hand

Until another ally is found.

The execution of jarl borg
made public

Would surely discourage
and deter

Any possible partners.

(sighs heavily)

Fine.
I shall wait.

But at least
we are still allies, king horik!

Horik:
I want my revenge on king ecbert
and I shall have it,

Come what may.

Aelle:
King ecbert, I've travelled
many miles to meet you.

So that together,
you and I,

Wessex and northumbria,
can save our country.

God save England!

Aelle's companions:
God save England!

Ecbert:
God save England.

Bishop edmund:
God save England!

People:
God save England!
God save England!

God save England!

Helga:
I have some news for you.

I am carrying our child.

(footsteps splash)

Floki:
Floki the carpenter.

Floki the fisherman.

Floki the father!

Poor child
to have such a father!

No, you will be
a wonderful father.

No, helga,
I will be the worst father.

And my child!

Oh, you gods,
what have I done?

Helga:
Now you're frightening me.
Please don't frighten me.

Floki:
Shh. Shh. You're...
You're right.

No, I'm f-
I'm a fool.

I always was a fool.

We shall be so happy.

You and I,
and our beautiful child.

Let's get married, helga.

There is no one else
for me now.

Let's get married,
and may the gods bless us,

As they surely will,

For we are such friends
to them.

Helga: Yes.
Floki: Yes.

And all of our friends -
ragnar and...

No, not ragnar.

Helga: But, but he-
floki: No.

I said, not ragnar.

Everything here
is for ragnar.

I've known him a long time.

I helped him rise.
I build his ships.

And now he is earl,
earl ragnar,

And our little world
waits upon him

And eats from his hand.

But he cannot have everything.

He cannot have you and me.

(kiss)

(water laps gently)

(choppy water undulates)

(sharp inhale
and heavy sigh)

What is troubling you?

What is troubling me
is that you do not trust me.

I don't trust you?

That night you captured
jarl borg,

You told me nothing
of what you meant to do.

Ragnar:
I sent someone to find you.

They could not find you.

Where were you?

I was with porunn.

Ragnar:
Ah. So it was your decision.

You chose to be with her,
rather than me.

I only ask to be kept in
your confidence as your son.

Ragnar:
I will be the judge of how far
I take you into my confidence.

But as a father,
I will give you some advice.

Think with this...

Not with your...

Bjorn:
(sniffs angrily)

(footsteps retreat,
fire crackles)

(women chant)

Aslaug:
(gasps in pain)

Siggy:
What is wrong?

Aslaug:
I have never had
such a pregnancy.

So much pain.

I am afraid.

Siggy:
Afraid of what?

Aslaug:
When ragnar came
to the farmhouse,

He wanted to have sex.

I told him
if he forced himself on me

In the first three days
of his return,

I would bear him a monster.

I do not know what made me say
the things I said to ragnar.

I spoke them,
but the gods chose them.

(wind howls)

(approaching footsteps)

Siggy:
(whispering)
as agreed.

(coins clink)

(blows out candle,
door rattles open)

What do you want?

Have you come here
to gloat?

(rats squeak)

Are you looking forward
to my execution?

Have you ever seen anyone
being blood-eagled before?

I'm told it is the worst,
most painful death of all...

But astonishing.

Truly astonishing,
to those who watch.

(water churns and splashes)

(shackles clank)

(gulping greedily)

(panting)

I will take no pleasure
in your death.

Jarl borg:
Once, you would not have
said that.

Jarl borg:
They've changed
because ragnar lothbrok

Has humiliated you.

It's only the start
of his real ambitions.

Jarl borg:
Meaning ragnar lothbrok
wants to be king.

Isn't that obvious to you,
king horik?

Why would he stop
at assassinating me?

He's ragnar lothbrok.

His fame eclipses
even yours.

Let us say
I believe you.

What would you
have me do?

I would arrange
for my escape.

And then I would kill
ragnar lothbrok

And make his brother earl.

That's what I would do
if I were you.

(retreating footsteps)

(rat squeaks)

I've brought you something.

(shackles clank)

(snake hisses)

Ragnar:
I've had dreams
of the priest athelstan.

He comes to me,
but I do not know where he is -

In valhalla or in hel?

Seer:
He is in neither place.

Ragnar:
Then he is alive?

(blowing dust)

♪

Seer:
He is physically alive
but his spirit is tormented.

He does not know himself.
I see that.

Ragnar:
You must tell me where he is.

(wind gusts,
parchment rustles)

Seer:
He is with a man you know.

(raven croaks)

A foreigner.
A king.

(rollo exhales heavily,
trying to catch his breath)

Rollo:
What are you going to do
about jarl borg?

Ragnar:
You know exactly
what I'm going to do.

Rollo:
Then why haven't you done it?
What're you waiting for?

Ragnar:
I told the king
that I would wait.

I don't understand,
brother.

Why do you keep making
concessions to horik?

Because he is the king.

(chatter and laughter)

Bjorn:
Why won't you talk to me?

Porunn:
There is not much to say.

Bjorn:
We have everything
to say to each other.

You can tell me
about your whole life.

And I can tell you
about mine.

Porunn:
There is not much to say
about my life.

I've always been a servant.

Bjorn:
Wait.

Aslaug:
I thought you might be thirsty.

Torvi:
Thank you, princess aslaug.

You are kind.

Aslaug:
I feel sorry for you.

Torvi:
It is all the same
with we women.

We just give birth
to the slaughtered.

Bjorn:
Rollo said that
she is just a slave

And I can have her any time.

Floki:
Your uncle is heavy-handed
when he speaks to others

About the heart.

But, the truth is,

He feels the pangs
as deeply as you.

But warriors don't show
their heart,

Until the axe reveals it!

Bjorn:
You are so wise, floki.

Floki:
(chuckles)

I'm not wise at all.
I'm just a joker.

(kiss)

Siggy: Helga.
Helga: Siggy.

Siggy:
You are with child.

Helga:
Yes.

Siggy:
Floki must be happy.

He's not happy?
Why is he not happy?

Helga
it's complicated.
Floki is complicated.

Will you marry?

Yes. Yes, we will.

Siggy:
With earl ragnar's blessing?

Helga:
My love does not think
that he needs

Earl ragnar's blessing.

Only that of the gods.

(hall buzzes with chatter
and laughter)

Siggy:
I have some interesting news.

Floki is angry with ragnar.

Horik:
Floki? Floki loves ragnar.

Siggy:
Hmm.

♪

Ragnar lothbrok
is no longer alone

In attacking our shores.

Aelle:
Mm. Yet for me...

He is still the greatest
disturbance to our world.

Ecbert:
I agree, and very likely
to return here.

Aelle:
Mm.

Ecbert:
We must be prepared for him.

If you and I and our kingdoms
are allied together,

We will be stronger.

If his army lands
in northumbria,

I will come at once
to your aid,

And trust that you will do
the same for me.

(pensive inhale and exhale)

(fire crackles)

(chair scrapes,
thuds on the floor)

Leave it.

All of you, leave.

(retreating footsteps)

Mhh.

Mercia is a neighbor of mine,
as it is of yours,

So you know very well
what is happening there.

Since the death of king offa,

The kingdom has fallen
into turmoil,

With several members
of his family

Competing for the throne.

Offa's son and heir has been
murdered by his own sister,

And it seems there is no end

To the violence
and the chaos there.

It suits neither of us
to have such an unstable

And tumultuous neighbor.

But... If you and I
joined together,

Not only against the northmen,
but also against mercia,

We should surely overcome it.

Ecbert:
We could then divide mercia up
between us,

As we saw fit.

What do you say?

I say,
after we have conquered mercia,

What is to stop you from turning
on your smaller ally?

(sighs, considering)

At the moment, king aelle,
very little.

That is why I am proposing
the formal marriage

Of my oldest son and heir,
aethelwulf,

To your beautiful daughter,
judith.

Now then,
what do you say?

Aelle:
Now I say...

Let us drink
to our alliance...

And may the devil never
cast it asunder, hm?

Bishop edmund:
Do you, aethelwulf,
son of ecbert,

Before all these witnesses here
gathered,

Take this woman, judith,
daughter of aelle,

As your lawful wife,
to have and to hold,

From this moment
until death parts you?

Aethelwulf:
I do.

You must hold this sword
in trust for your son,

And now you must present
this new sword to the groom.

The father's power of protection
over the woman,

To her new husband.

Bishop edmund:
Do you, judith,
before all these witnesses,

Take this man, aethelwulf,
to have and to hold,

And forsaking all others,
to serve and obey,

From this time henceforth,
until you die?

Judith:
I do.

Priestess:
Now the rings.

Floki,
do you swear to the gods

That you want to marry
this woman?

Floki:
I swear, with the gods
as my witnesses.

Priestess:
Helga, do you swear
to the gods

That you want to marry
this man?

Helga:
I do swear.

Bishop edmund:
Let these rings be

That you are united
in holy matrimony,

In the eyes of these people,
and in the eyes of god.

Then you are married.

Envoy: Rollo lothbrok?
Rollo: Yes.

Envoy:
I have come to talk
to your brother...

Upon important business.

Rollo:
And what business
would that be?

Envoy:
Believe me, your brother would
want to hear me.

(throwing grunt,

Ragnar:
Ooh!

(laughs drunkenly)

You son of a whore.
One more.

Torstein:
Wait. My turn.

(spits then grunts)

Ragnar:
All right.

Ragnar: Torstein?
Torstein: Here! I'm here.

Ragnar:
Is your shield up?
It is so dark in here!

(loud thwack)
ha!

Ragnar and torstein:
(laugh drunkenly)

Rollo:
This is my brother.

Ragnar and torstein:
(laugh)

Ragnar:
And you are?

You sent word that you needed
a new ally to attack wessex.

The word reached us

And we are happy to say that
we can provide such an ally.

Envoy:
An earl with enough ships
and men

To make your raid
a great success.

His name is earl ingstad.

Ragnar:
Earl ingstad?

Earl ingstad.

(arrow strikes shield,
torstein pants)

Never heard of him.

Torstein:
(laughs drunkenly)

Why is he not with you?

He did not want to waste
the journey.

He wanted to be certain
that you were still in need

Of an ally.

When can I meet him?

Envoy
you can meet him
at any time.

Ragnar: Yes!
Envoy: He is ready to attend.

Ragnar:
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!

Torstein:
(laughs drunkenly)

(doors shut)

(wind howls fiercely)

Rollo:
We have found a new ally.

Earl ingstad...
Whoever he is.

Siggy:
When will he arrive?

Rollo:
A few days.

Siggy:
And then jarl borg
will be executed.

Rollo:
That cannot come too quickly
for my liking.

(clothes rustle)

(door creaks open)

(rats squeak)

(door bangs shut)

Siggy and rollo:
(passionate gasps and moans)

Siggy:
You're hurting me!

You're hurting me!

Rollo:
Why do you do it?

Why do you sleep
with king horik?

(sharp inhale,
exhales slowly)

Siggy:
I do it for you.

(choked gasp)

Please!

(exhales sharply,
gasping for breath)

Rollo:
What can king horik do for me
that my brother cannot do?

Siggy:
Right now they are allies -
long may they remain so -

But in the event that
they should fall out,

You should be able
to choose between them.

Horik is a king.

Never forget that.

Never doubt
how much power he has.

What have you decided?

Horik:
I have decided to take
your advice.

I will set you free.

There are those here
who will help me;

People who only pretend
to be loyal to ragnar.

(shackles clank)

And then?

And then we will kill
ragnar lothbrok.

(fire crackles,
water drips)

Bjorn:
I want to ask you something.

What is a blood-eagle?

Ragnar:
The offender gets down
on his knees...

And his back is opened
with knives.

And then, with axes,

His ribs are chopped away
from his spine,

And then his lungs

Are pulled out of these huge,
bleeding wounds

And laid upon his shoulders,

So they look like
the folded wings

Of a great eagle.

And must he stay like that,
suffering,

Until he dies.

(bathwater churns)

If he suffers in silence,
he may enter valhalla.

But if he screams,

He can never enter its portals.

(quick, loud knocking,
door creaks open)

Torstein:
Earl ingstad is here.

(bathwater sloshes)

Ragnar:
Where is he?

Torstein:
He would not enter
the great hall.

He chose instead
to remain in the woods.

(door closes)

(horses gallop,
whinnying)

(horse whinnies,
hooves thud softly)

(horse snorts,
hooves thud softly)

Ragnar:
Earl ingstad?

(sighs)

Earl ingstad!

You bear a strong resemblance
to my ex-wife.

Lagertha:
If I had given you
my true name,

You might have turned me away.

How is bjorn?

Ragnar:
He is happy.

He is looking forward
to going to England.

Lagertha:
As am I.

Ragnar:
So you are truly an earl?

Lagertha:
Yes. We are equal.

I'm sure this is difficult
for you.

Ragnar:
It is not difficult at all.

How many ships?

Lagertha:
Four ships.

Over a hundred warriors.

So will you accept me
as an ally?

Ragnar:
(clears throat)

That depends.

Lagertha:
On what?

Ragnar:
I have been betrayed
by earls before.

So if you are really
earl ingstad,

Then it's a no.

But if you are still
the lagertha I remember,

Then it is a yes.

(horse snorts)

Ragnar: Earl ingstad.
Lagertha: (laughs)

Shield-maiden: Aghhhh!

Shield-maiden 2:
You say you try.
You try and you try...

Aslaug:
That was not expected.

Ragnar:
No. It wasn't.

Aslaug:
What do you think of it?

Ragnar:
I think the gods
are playing a joke on me.

Aslaug:
(laughs) it is not a joke.

Ragnar:
I know.

What do you think?

Aslaug:
I like her.

Ragnar: My former wife?
Aslaug: Hmm...

Aslaug:
I would rather be her.

Ragnar: Ah!
Aslaug: She is formidable.

Lagertha:
Be stonger!

The gods are having a good time
with me today.

Aslaug and ragnar:

Attack!
