Entry to Valhalla eludes Ragnar but as he lies in his sick bed in Kattegat events unfold beyond his control. Bjorn orders the arrest of Floki for Athelstan's murder and in Paris, Rollo betrays his allies to strengthen his position. Meanwhile, in Hedeby, Kalf announces joint Earldom with Lagertha, but is Lagertha actually willing to share what once was hers? (History Canada)

A sketchy time shift where things don’t fit together, but we are all used to it already. The illogical decisions made by the main characters are probably deliberate, after all, there has to be something at least a little innovative about the plot in the fourth season. For example, a final action set-piece that will be surprising. For a first episode, traditionally weaker and more circumspect.

The fourth season left the same impression on me as the beginning of the third series - hesitant. The events in Kattegat didn't seem particularly interesting to me, earlier intrigues disappeared somewhere, so the story somehow lacked excitement. I added the fourth star only because of the events in Frankreich, Rollo took care of some humor (wedding and wedding night) and subsequently also the most important events of the first episode.
