Previously on "Vikings":
This is an ambitious man.
And he resents the fact that he owes me
Loyalty and obedience as his chieftain.
You accept that you're a criminal?
Worthy only of defeat.
After him!
Worthy only of death.
Where is father? Is he dead?
I've come to warn you. My husband, he hates you.
Earl Haraldson has played a trick on rollo
Trying to find where you where.
Then he tortured him.
He tortured my brother?
It's a trap for you, Ragnar.
I want you to ask for a meeting with the Earl,
Challenge him to a personal combat...With me.

What is it?
My Lord, this man says he has a message for you
From Ragnar Lothbrok.
Let him go!
What's the message?
Ragnar Lothbrok challenges you to meet him in single combat.
Ragnar Lothbrok has a very high opinion of himself.
Well, he is a descendant of Odin.
Ragnar said that if you refuse his challenge,
Then shame would follow you the rest of your life.
There would be greater shame
In accepting a challenge from a criminal.
That would suggest that I take him seriously;
That I see him as an equal.
The challenge is declined.
When Ragnar Lothbrok appears in Kattegat,
He will be put in chains.
Stones and bones.
He searches for your death.
Does he desire to be Earl?
If he kills you, would it not be so?
Tell Ragnar Lothbrok I accept his challenge.
Take him away.

Ragnar... What?
Let's go away.
Let's leave here.
This is not the only place for us.
He is old.
What are you frightened of?
You can't fight.
You're still too weak.
Perhaps that makes us equal.
Never fight unless you know the odds are in your favor.
That is our way.
Who sets the odds?
Our fates are already decided.
You don't believe that and neither do I.
You are wrong
I do believe it.
come to bed.
You need to rest, to sleep.
Yes, I will.
There's always time to sleep.
I was thinking about our boys,
What they would look like now.
Don't... Don't think about them.
Think about tomorrow.
When I must kill a man
For whom I have the utmost respect.
Respect?
You respect Ragnar Lothbrok?
Why not?
He is what I used to be -
Restless, ambitious.
And he was right about the western lands.
But I always knew that in my heart.
Then why didn't you tell him?
Because the moment that I reached out
Was the moment that all my friends,
All my supporters would have deserted me
And joined him.
It was impossible to do it.
Our fates have brought us together.
And maybe he's opened the western lands for me.
That is my hope, after I kill him.
The seer promised you would kill him?
Yes.
Good.
I'm sure that's our first child.
Now get up and fetch me some pickled herrings.
I'm starving.
I don't like the smell of them in the bed.
Your clothes are smelly enough as it is.
Why can't you just wash like everyone else?
I thought a wife wasn't supposed to nag her husband
Until they'd had time to grow tired of each other?
If you don't get up and fetch me some herrings
I will beat you.
Perhaps that will make you show a little life
When we have sex, in any case!
Very well.
I'll go.
I can't wait till tomorrow.
Personal combat is always thrilling.
Who is this Ragnar Lothbrok?
I've heard many people talk about him.
Thyri I don't talk about him.
He's my father's enemy.
Lord,
High one, hear me.
Listen to me.
Give me your favor this day.
Grant me your blessing as you have done in the past,
And I will make a sacrifice of my enemy,
If his death pleases you.
Give me a sign...
I cannot feel your presence...
Husband...?
Our sons hair.
Believe at least in them,
And in yourself.
Don't look so worried.
♪
This is a personal combat.
The combatants can choose any weapon
And shield they desire.
Each man has two shields.
If both are broken,
There can be no further replacement.
Father, you can do it!
You can do it, Earl!
Finish him!
Agghhh!
Ungh!
Agh!
Lord Odin is here,
Waiting to see which one of us
He will take to his great hall.
So I shall...
I shall dine, after all,
At the high table with the aesir.
No!
Tonight I shall be drinking with our boys.
Kill him!
Aghhhh!
Hail, Earl Ragnar.
Hail, Earl Ragnar!
Hail, Earl Ragnar.
Hail, Earl Ragnar!
Take it!
Take it! Take it!
Take it!
Lord Ragnar,
I have come to swear to you my allegiance
And fealty to you and your family
From this day.
Leif, you are my friend.
And you, Torstein,
And you, Arne,
You are my friends.
What is your name?
Old Tostig, Lord Ragnar.
Do you swear allegiance and fealty
To me and to my family
From this day forth?
That won't be so long then!
By my sacred rings I swear.
But I also have a favor to ask, Lord.
What is this favor?
That the next time you go raiding,
You take me with you.
I do not wish to insult you, but the truth is you-
That I am too old?
Yes, I am old.
But I have been a warrior all my life.
Many years I sailed with Lord Haraldson
And fought battles against the eastlanders,
And I watched all the companions of my youth die.
And though I fought with them in the shield-wall,
Never once was I touched by a blade.
All the friends and companions of my youth are dead
And feasting and drinking with the aesir
In the halls of the gods!
While I...
I am forsaken
Bereft.
Which is why, I beg you, Lord,
Gift me the chance to die with honor in battle,
And join my friends in Valhalla.
This summer, we shall have more ships to go west,
For that is our future.
When we return to England...
Let's take him with us!
All in favor?
Aye.
There is no need for you to swear.
You have already paid a heavy price
For your loyalty to me.
Nevertheless, I will swear, brother.
I swear to be true to you,
Your wife and your family...
As long as your good fortune holds.
How will we ever be equal now, my brother?
Why have you agreed to grant Earl Haraldson
Such a big funeral.
Was he not your enemy?
He was also a great man and a warrior.
He earned his renown in this life,
And now, in death, he deserves such a funeral.
I want to show you something.

There's that slave girl -

What are they doing?
She is having sex with the men that live in there.
Each one of them says to her
"tell your master I did this out of love for him."
Because she will soon be reunited
With her master in death,
And she will be able to speak to him.

I cannot stay.
What's the matter with you, Priest?
I don't want to watch.

You will stay, or my father will hear of it.
Yeah! Yeah!
Hail, Ragnar Lothbrok!
Hail, Ragnar!
Ragnar!
Hail, Ragnar!
Hail, Ragnar Lothbrok!
Move!
I ask permission to light the pyre.
I have something important to tell you, husband.
I am with child again.
I know you're a boy!
The seer told me.
O by all the gods, my son,
You have made me a happy man.
Have you come to kill us?
Why would I do that?
Because Ragnar told you to.
It is often the way that the new Earl
Deals with the family of the old.
Ragnar won't kill you.
How can you be sure?
My brother doesn't hold grudges.
He's strange that way.
Well...
Even if we don't die,
They will still shun us like a bad smell.
And they'll make it so we have to leave here,
Even though they know no one else will take us in.
They won't.
Not if I vouch for you.
No one will force you to go anywhere.
They wouldn't dare.
What do you want in return?
You were once married to an Earl.
Would you not like to be married to another one?
Who?
What do you mean who?
Me!
The pigs are fattening nicely.
Just like your mother.
It's cold,
Even in here.
I can't wait for the spring,
Or the raids.
I want to go to England.
No.
What?
I said no. But why?
Because I said so.
Don't be too impatient to put yourself in danger.
But you cannot alter my fate!
You sound like your uncle,
When he doesn't know what to say.
Come on.
Ragnar, I have heard many of your stories,
But tell me...
What is Ragnarok?
I have heard mention of it several times,
But so far no one has explained
The meaning to me.
Let's show this ignorant christian
What Ragnarok is.
Get the leaves.
The twilight of the gods will happen like this
There will be three years of terrible winters...
And summers of black sunlight.
People will lose all hope
And surrender to greed,
Incest and civil war.
Midgardsormen, the world serpent,
Will come lunging from the ocean,
Dragging the tides in and floOding the world.
The wolf, giant fenrir,
Will break his invisible chains...
The skies will open
And surt the fire-giant
Will come flaming across the bridge
To destroy the gods.
Odin will ride out of the gates of Valhalla
To do battle for a last time against the wolf.
Thor will kill the serpent,
But die from its venom.
Surt will spread fire across the earth.
At last, fenrir will swallow the sun.
Nooooooooo!
So where did these northmen come ashore?
They didn't.
What do you mean, they didn't?
They came in three ships,
And those ships are now sailing up the tyne.
They have ships that can cross oceans
But also sail up rivers?
What manner of men are these?
If they are sailing up the tyne,
Then, sire, we shall soon find out.
Ah yes, my Lord wigea,
Of course you know all about them.
You accused them of having supernatural powers,
Which is why a small force of them defeated you.
I merely said they fought like demons,
Like men possessed, with no fear of death.
Unlike you, my Lord?
I fear death as much as the next man,
But I have no fear that afterwards
God will raise me up again.
Oh, well said.
Come, all of you!
I have something new to show you.
Let the serpents bite these devils.
Let them also bite those too weak
And afraid to fight to the death
For their king and master.
My Lord! No! No!
You look terrified, my Lord wigea.
Have you lost your faith?
Are you not certain anymore
That god will raise you up from the grave?
Have mercy
Personally, I hope he does not.
I hope he leaves you there to rot.
Nooooooo!
Ungh!
No! Christ!
God!
Nooooo!
Now let us prepare to defend ourselves
Against these heathens and barbarians.
