Plots(1)
Ragnar and King Horik clash over how to dispense justice to Jarl Borg. In Wessex, King Aelle arrives and Ecbert has an eye on a new alliance. (History Channel)
Reviews (2)
The old alliance is obviously not getting rusty and they know that in England as well as in Scandinavia. Old friendships are renewed and future intrigues are initiated. In the end, it all culminates in an artful-looking execution.

The episode felt like it was split into two distinct parts. The first part was filled with political maneuvering, intrigue, and a slightly paranoid atmosphere where you couldn't tell who to trust — definitely my kind of thing. The second part focused on Jarl Borg’s fate. While I could have handled a few more intense scenes, it still didn’t disappoint. Since Lagertha has been my favorite character from the start, I had to give this episode a full five stars.
