The labours of the Vikings bear fruit as, within sight of Paris, they re-launch their fleet but this time with some formidable new structures that Floki has engineered. Aethelwulf and Alfred arrive in Rome and honours are conferred by Pope Leo. Relations are not so cordial in Wessex. (History Canada)
Reviews (2)
One tangled love triangle has finally been resolved, but otherwise we're going virtually nowhere. Unless you count the royal escapades in Paris, or pulling boats in the woods, which actually happens in the sum of the last few episodes. There is a surprisingly subliminally chilling scene involving the death of a small child, but otherwise it sadly goes to hell, as does Ragnar himself.

Well, the creators finally did it — they pushed me to give my lowest rating yet. The episode was a total letdown. It was mostly just dragging boats around, with a raiding scene thrown in for some variety, but it didn't add any real value. There were way too many moments of pointless filler. Overall, pretty boring.
