Episode Summary & Review

Summary

With one last chance to take Paris, Ragnar and his Viking troops take a daring chance. Ragnar asks Bjorn for a favor that could change the course of Viking history.

Our Take

The Paris siege finally pays off with some genuinely clever trickery, and the funeral procession is the kind of bold move this show does well. Ragnar’s quiet scenes with the priest carry real weight, even if the pacing drags in spots. A solid finale that lands the season’s big swings without feeling rushed. Worth your time if you’ve come this far.
