(whistling music)

(trumpet music)

- [Ylva] Will you stop pacing up and down?

- [Halvar] What's my brother going to think of me?

Settled down, married man with a kid.

- What's wrong with that?

- When we were young we swore we'd loot and pillage

and fight like free spirits wherever we went,

and never settle down.

- Thank goodness you grew up.

- [Vic] Is Uncle Halford here yet?

I can't wait to finally meet him.

Dad, tell me about when you and Halford were young

and you looted and you pillaged

and you fought like free spirits wherever you went.

- Did I tell you about the last time we fought Ivar Pegleg?

Ivar came towards us with his men,

once again to take revenge.

Vicious, bloodthirsty kilts, every one of them.

We could hear Ivar's wooden leg thumping on the ground.

- How come he had a wooden leg, dad?

- You'll have to ask your Uncle Halford about that.

Ivar Pegleg never forgave him.

We were outnumbered, but Halford and I

made a skjaldborg with our men.

You know what that is?

It's when you lock your shields together in a line.

We locked our shields

and pushed Ivar and his men into the sea.

- Don't you think you should give your brother

a real viking's welcome?

- Ooh, yes! Good idea.

- Vicky, could you go and get us some firewood?

- Okay, mom.

(chuckles)

- You'll know my brother when you see him.

He looks like me,

perhaps a tad stronger, scarier, and nastier.

- And thinner?

- Yeah, thinner.

- Hey! What do you mean, thinner?

- It would have been a better viking's welcome

if all the crew came along.

- The whole village is in the fields

for the harvest season, Urobe.

I'm even surprised Ylva let us go.

She'll need help with the bread baking.

Shh! Halford has the hearing of an owl

and we want to surprise him.

(happy music)

(sticks cracking underfoot)

(gasps)

- (chuckles) You must be Vicky.

- Oh, Uncle Halford!

(laughter)

- You shouldn't be in the forest on your own, Vicky.

Isn't it dangerous?

- Not really. We don't have any trouble in Flake.

It's very peaceful here.

- I want to see what my brother's

been doing all these years.

(dramatic horns)

(coughing)

- In my fighting days,

I would've flattened people for less than that.

- Oh, sorry. Halford?

- Ylva! Finally I meet the woman

who made my brother settle down.

(giggles)

- [Vic] Uncle Halford, how did you flatten Ivar Pegleg

when he lost his leg?

- That was an accident, and I said I was sorry.

- Well Halford, have you come here

to loot and pillage and fight like a free spirit?

- Not exactly.

My fighting days are over, Ylva.

I'm a baker now.

You've come at the right time, then.

(upbeat, happy music)

(swishing)

(pounding)

(gong)

(grunt)

(swishing)

(grunt)

- No, a bit more like this.

(grunt)

- Got it! (grunt)

(giggles)

(dramatic music)

- I don't think he's coming, Chief.

- Shouldn't we return and help Ylva with the baking?

- Just five more minutes and we'll head back.

I can feel he's close now.

(low trombone notes)

(upbeat music)

- It's ready!

Now the temperature is perfect.

Come on Vicky, we can put all the dough in the oven now.

(grunts)

In we go.

Well, where's my little brother?

I'll join him in the woods while the bread cooks.

(blowing) Mmmm! (chewing)

(low horn music)

- Huh?

Footprints all heading towards Flake!

This is Halford and his men, no doubt.

- Hmm, there's a mark here

that's been made by a large piece of wood.

Does Halford walk with a stick?

- That's just like Halford.

He came from the woods while we were waiting on the path.

Ha ha, how clever.

Just like when we were kids.

- Yoohoo! Halvar! Where are you?

Are you playing hide and seek?

(chuckles)

Hi! Oh?

(dramatic music)

- [Ivar] Ha ha ha.

(metal stomping)

- I've caught up with you at last, Halford.

Now it's time to pay for what you did to me

all those years ago. Ha ha ha ha ha!

- You know that was an accident

and I said I was sorry.

- Sorry? I just bought new pair of shoes the day before.

Have you any idea how annoying that was?

(fire crackling)

- Yes, Vic. I think it's ready.

Run and fetch your Uncle Halford.

- Okay, mom.

- Mmmm.

(happy music)

- Uncle Halford!

- [Ivar] So, you were gonna hack me down

with half a loaf of bread, were you?

(chuckles)

But I have to thank you.

This place is so wonderful, so beautiful,

and with only one woman

and a handful of kids to protect it...

Sweet! The perfect place to loot and pillage.

- My brother, Halvar, will make mincemeat of you.

(chuckles)

- Oh no, my dear friend.

I'll tell you what Halvar will do.

He'll cry bitter tears when he comes back

and finds his village pillaged

and his brother out for the count. (gasp)

(evil laughter)

(dramatic music)

- Vicky, why didn't you fetch Halford?

These loaves are all burned.

- Ivar Pegleg captured Halford!

- What? Ivar Pegleg is here?

- But he's on his way to the village to pillage us.

Ugh. Hmmm. (hard knocking)

Hmm. (clunking)

Hmm.

Ah ha!

- Come on children! We must hide, quickly!

- No, wait, mom! I think I know how to stop him.

(inspiring music)

(grunts)

(chuckles)

(grunts)

- Halford! (laughter)

This is one of your little games, isn't it?

Like when we were kids.

Let me guess. It's a test. Of bravery?

No, no. Don't tell me. Let me guess.

(knife swishing) (rope falling)

- Ivar Pegleg's here!

He's heading for the village!

- [Ivar] Come out, come out wherever you are.

I won't hurt you. (chuckles)

(dramatic drums)

(tense music)

(quacking)

- [Ylva] Get out of our village, Pegleg!

(dramatic horn music)

- Come on. Do you think

a bunch of scared children can frighten me?

Ah! Ah!

Ouch!

(wooshing)

Ouch!

You want to fight? Gah!

You bunch of stinky kids!

You should be scared, little worms!

Oh, I will... Ah!

- [Halford] Stop right there Pegleg,

or I'll make clothes pegs out of you.

- Bring it on, Pegleg. I need a new toothpick.

(laughter)

- Oooh. Now I am really scared.

Don't come any closer or I will,

how did you say Halford?

Make mincemeat of your wife and children.

Understood?

- Ready?

(upbeat music)

- If I were you, I'd be careful.

Behind you!

- You won't get me with this old trick, Halford.

- As you wish. But they're coming for you.

- Ouch, that hurt!

- It's a granary loaf.

The chewiest loaf in the world.

Feeling lucky?

Yow!

- [Vic] Now!

(laughter) - Oh stop! Oh!

Ah! Ah! Oh! It's too much!

(laughter)

Oh stop! Oh oh no!

Oh stop! Ah oh!

- Let him go now.

(chuckles) - Oh thank you.

- Just like old times, eh Halvar?

(chuckles) Boo!

(goofy music)

- Brings back the days when we would

loot and pillage and fight like free spirits

wherever we went! (chuckles)

(clapping)

(mellow harp music)

- [Halford] No interruptions while I made this one.

It definitely isn't burnt.

That was a great idea of yours, Vic,

to make a skjaldborg with the loaves of bread.

You've got a good family here, Halvar.

I've given up looting, pillaging, and fighting.

Maybe it's time for me to settle down,

just like you, Halvar.

(laughter)
