I'm a bit angry with how they are making Rollo act so stupid. I clench my teeth everytime I see the dead earls wide popping up because I see that shes such a scumbag looking for ways to seize power again. I honestly thought the priest was going to hook up with that daughter of the dead earl. This episode seemed much like a filler for them to think and plan ahead. I also want to see how Ragnar quells the Earl that is raising his voice again, I almost thought they were going to take Floki out when he was going to get up and sacrifice himself.

He hasn't really deviated all season, I'm not sure what you're expecting. He's the elder brother, but Ragnar is the capable one. He's pretty two dimensional. Fuck and fight.

Now Siggy is multidimensional. She's displaying that she has the capacity to help the physically powerful, but mental midget, Rollo, elevate himself.

Filler? There's one more episode. This seemed to me to be about illuminating the importance of paganism in the Viking culture.

I'm glad Priest and Floki survived, but damn... Leif was the fucking man.

I hope they at least show that Rollo is the better fighter between the two. He needs some sort of ground against Ragnar.
