Harald makes a risky move and falls into the hands of the Pechenegs. Olaf sets off to find Jombsborg and stumbles onto an unlikely source of help.

Oof, poor Harald getting those spikes through his chest. That looked painful.

[3jt]

I couldn't watch.

[magdalene]

Shouldn't that have killed him? I mean I am glad he is alive and all....

That's probably the most gruesome thing I've ever seen, and this is a show where I've seen people get the blood eagle treatment. 

That said, this was a pretty gripping episode (no pun intended). I think they've done a pretty good job establishing the boat crew characters, although I'm a little vague on the slave girls still. Was really impressed with the trick Kurya played on his brother with the poison. Sorry to lose that character though. Kind of far-fetched the boat survived the falls as well as it did, but I'll let it go.

Of course Olaf finds Jorundr. Doesn't he have all the luck? 

[Haleth]

Yeah, I had to look away a lot too. And I was sorry to lose Kurya. Exciting episode!
