This is the River Seine.

Now I don't know where it starts,

but it arrives here and it widens.

It widens around this island.

And on this island,

is Paris.

It has these walls all around.

They are high and thick.

And towers everywhere.

How do they get into this city?

There was a bridge.

At least one. Like this.

What defenses did they have?

I was just a monk.

I did not notice such things at the time.

Well, what do you say now?

Now?

I would say this city

is impregnable.

There will be something wrong with it. I know!

Why do you say so?

Look at me.

That has nothing to do with the baby.

It won't be long now.

Go away, Bjorn! No.

I don't want this child.

I don't want this child! I don't want this child!

I do.

It will be weak, deformed.

Maybe you will love it just the same.

It is coming.

Pray to Freya.

One more.

It is a girl.

Don't show me. Get rid of it.

Give her to me.

I am a father.

You have a perfect daughter.

The most beautiful child I've ever seen.

You're lying. She can't be.

It's impossible.

No, she's not lying.

She needs a name, your beautiful daughter.

I have a name, if Porunn agrees.

I would like to call her Siggy.

Siggy, who saved the sons of Ragnar.

It is all right, sweet Siggy.

May the gods watch and protect you, my sweet daughter.

Can I hold her?

Thank you.

Thank you for coming back.

Sweet Siggy,

what a family you've been born into.

You could've had sex with him in front of the children for all I care.

Just as long as you were watching over them.

Sleep well, my darling.

Ragnar.

Ragnar!

This man is a farmer, and he has some news for you.

Lord. His name is Stender.

His farm is in Wessex.

I know, Floki. Let the man speak.

King Ecbert's son, Aethelwulf, came one day

with his nobles and soldiers,

and killed, burned and destroyed all of our settlement.

All of it, Ragnar.

Go on.

The slaughter was great.

All our men, their wives and their children.

Only a few of us survived.

Somehow we reached the coast.

We stole a boat.

And then we sailed through ice and fog.

I just wanted to die,

as my wife, my daughter and my little boy had all died,

but the gods refused.

Our misfortune was never ending.

Storm blew us off course.

At last we reached a small frozen bay in Götland.

The ship foundered on the ice.

I saw my eldest son die before my eyes.

And here I am, my lord, a broken man,

who only wants to die and rejoin his family.

Yes, I know.

Do you see now, Ragnar?

This adventure was doomed from the start.

We ignored the warnings of the gods.

And so they refused to protect our farmers.

And who can blame them, Ragnar?

Believe me, Floki.

Aethelwulf

and his father

will feel the wrath of the gods

and my revenge.

And Athelstan?

What about Athelstan?

Athelstan persuaded us to deal with Ecbert and the Christians.

He persuaded us of their good faith.

But now you must see the truth, Ragnar. It was all a trap.

Athelstan is not to blame, Floki.

If anyone is to blame, it is me. Do you understand?

Me.

Look at what the gods are trying to tell us!

Me.

Have you told anyone else about this?

No one, my lord. No one.

You are a courageous man, Stender.

Thank you, my lord.

No, thank you.

You are beloved by the gods.

Why...

Yes.

Now you can be with your family.

My lord.

Here is your new son, my lord Aethelwulf.

A boy?

Congratulations.

My lord. My lord.

I want my baby.

You must come with us to the place appointed.

But I am not dressed. What place appointed?

What are you talking about?

You have no choice. It is by the King's order.

No! Take your hands off me!

You're hurting me! No!

My baby! My baby! My baby!

My children need me!

No!

Whore!

Aethelwulf!

What is this? What are you doing to me?

Sire! Sire, please, have mercy.

Have mercy!

Please, Sire. Please, I beg mercy.

I beg!

My Lady Judith, you have been found guilty

of adultery against your lawful husband.

You refuse to admit the offense,

but we find sufficient evidence to exercise the punishment

advocated by the Holy Book,

that your ears and nose be cut off

to make real and visible your crime

against law and against nature.

Our Lord Jesus never advocated such barbarism.

Please, please.

Husband! Father!

Why cannot you show the mercy our Lord showed to those weak in the flesh?

Please!

No mercy!

Judith, daughter of Aelle,

wife of Aethelwulf,

you are charged and found guilty

of the heinous crime of adultery

with person or persons unknown.

You must pray to God

for forgiveness.

Stay!

Judith, will you not give us

the name of the father

of your child?

No!

Athelstan.

Hold! Hold! Athelstan!

What do you mean, it was Athelstan?

What can you possibly mean by that?

Athelstan...

Athelstan is the father of my child.

No!

Athelstan is a holy man.

I cannot blame my daughter-in-law

for being attracted to such a man of God.

Father, can you not imagine my own humiliation?

I can.

But may I suggest that there are deeper things involved here?

In my own mind, there is no doubt

of Athelstan's deep spirituality,

and his close connection to God.

So you think that God had a hand in this conception?

I do. I do, my son.

So how can we punish a woman

who, like the blessed Virgin, has been chosen by God

to give birth to a very special child?

My baby! My baby!

Please! God!

There will be a Christening after all.

And the boy's name will be Alfred.

Oh, Lord.

Lord.

Praise the Lord!

I've asked for a sign.

You have given me a sign.

You've... You've answered my prayers.

I was blind, but now I see.

I was dead, but...

I'm reborn.

Father,

hear my prayer.

And let my cry come unto thee.

For the gift of sight,

Lord, thank you.

For the gift of faith.

Thank you.

For by you all things were created

that are in heaven and that are in earth.

Visible and invisible.

Whether they be thrones,

powers or dominions,

all things were created by you.

And for you.

Ragnar!

What are you smiling about?

The Lord has come to me.

The Lord?

Your god?

Yes.

What did he look like?

I felt his presence.

He came in the form of light.

Did he speak?

No, he did not speak and yet I heard his voice.

And I am born again.

What do you mean, born again? Like... Like a baby?

I've rediscovered my faith.

I'm a new man.

Born again through the love of Jesus Christ.

Then you're a Christian again?

With all my heart.

With all my soul, with all my being.

I can no longer acknowledge your gods.

I suppose it is better that I leave Kattegat now.

What do you mean? You cannot leave! You cannot leave me!

I love you.

And you're the only one I can trust, so you must stay.

Well, I'm happy that you have found your god.

While you are here no one will ever hurt you.

I will protect you.

It does not matter where I go.

What matters to me is where you're going.

Hmm.

Floki!

Why are you not working on the boats?

My heart is not in it.

Why not?

Ragnar has no time for me.

And I need to speak to him about the boats

and other things.

Important things.

But every time, he's talking to the priest.

Do you know what this is?

This is Athelstan's sacred arm ring.

The one Ragnar gave him.

I saw him throwing it into the fjord.

Why would he do that?

Because he hates our gods.

Have you told Ragnar?

What's the point?

He doesn't listen.

I feel worried for my father.

I don't understand why he is so interested

in the Christians and Christian things.

I remember when he told me our family was descended from Odin.

He made me feel so proud.

What are you going to do, Floki?

I am going to leave Kattegat.

I will go home to my own culture.

To Helga and my child.

Don't worry, Bjorn.

I will finish the boats.

And in the meantime,

tell our brothers about this.

Who are they?

That's Kalf.

Those were my ships once.

Now they bring Kalf to Kattegat.

Kalf!

King Ragnar.

Hello, Kalf.

Greetings.

I join you in the expectation of the greatest raid

in the history of our people.

Who is this chunk of meat?

This is Earl Siegfried.

Lord Ragnar. I put my ships and my warriors at your disposal.

I'm sure that you remember King Horik's son,

and the widow of Jarl Borg.

They also have expressed a desire to take part in our raid.

Erlendur.

Torvi.

I have to say that I am a little

caught off guard, seeing you here.

I figured there was a reason you spared my life.

Maybe it's for this.

I have to ask,

how is the settlement in Wessex?

Good.

You cannot ignore him.

I'm not going to ignore him.

We are going to fight together,

even though he took away all that was mine.

All that was ours.

Perhaps it was fated?

And perhaps it is fated that I shall win it back some day.

Lagertha.

I see you are making yourself comfortable here as well.

I have come to join with King Ragnar and you in the attack on Paris.

Mmm.

Whatever else divides us,

that simple fact unites us all.

We will fight and perhaps, who knows, we will die together.

And if we don't?

Then we will take care of the future.

My future or yours?

Forgive me, but it seems to me

that our destinies are already locked together.

And perhaps always have been.

Wouldn't you agree, Lagertha?

Don't hide away.

Why not?

Because there is nothing more beautiful than a mother.

You're drunk.

I want you.

I know, but I'm sorry.

It's been a long time.

You need to be with a woman.

Let's find you someone.

Isn't that Torvi, the widow of Jarl Borg?

Erlendur doesn't pay her any attention.

You'd like her.

Don't do this.

You don't understand.

I'm doing this because I want you to be happy.

My father says happiness doesn't matter.

But you are not your father, Bjorn Ironside.

Or have you not realized that yet?

Good night, husband.

Watch it.

Rollo.

I have nothing to say to you, priest.

Except this...

Where is your arm ring?

Where is it?

I have someone very special I want you to meet.

Meet Sinric.

The wanderer I told you about.

It was he who guided me to England.

You speak the language of the Franks.

Not only that.

He also knows how to find the mouth of the Seine.

Are you thirsty? Yes.

Thank you.

I remember your husband.

No one could forget your husband.

He was my father's enemy,

but he was a great man.

And now he is in Valhalla.

Yes, I know.

I know he is with the gods.

And your new husband?

What of him?

He will come to Paris?

And so shall I.

I refuse to be left behind.

You have courage.

I'm Viking.

Sailing south by south-east,

we come upon the mouth of the Seine.

The gateway to Paris.

Several rivers empty themselves into the sea,

and the reefs and mudflats are dangerous.

But here is the entrance.

The entrance to paradise.

Floki.

Floki, what are you doing?

I have had a sign.

A sign for what?

A sign that blood must be spilled.

A sacrifice be made.

I have waited a long time for such a sign.

And now my purpose is clear.

What purpose?

It is not for you to know.

Some men lust for women, Helga.

Others lust for gold.

But I only lust to please the gods.

You must tell me what you are going to do.

I will only say that I am going away for a while.

But no one must see me leave

and you must never tell anyone of my going.

Do you swear?

Do you swear!

I didn't mean to hurt you.

No. I know.

But I think you mean to hurt someone.

Bjorn.

I'm sorry I have disturbed you.

Don't be sorry.

I love my wife, Torvi.

Floki.

Priest.

Lord, receive my soul.

The things I do for you.

For such a little man, Athelstan, you are terribly heavy.

This is as close to your God as I can get you.

I never knew what a martyr was.

I still don't.

You were a brave man, Athelstan.

I always respected you for that.

You taught me so much.

You saw yourself as weak and conflicted,

but to me you were fearless because you dared to question.

Why did you have to die?

We had so much more to talk about.

I always believed that death is a fate far better than life,

for you will be reunited with lost loved ones.

We will never meet again, my friend,

for I have a feeling that your God

might object to me visiting you in heaven.

What am I to do now, mmm?

I hate you for leaving me.

I ache from your loss.

There is nothing that can console me now.

I am changed.

So are you.

Forgive me, my friend,

not for what I have done,

but for what I am about to do.
