Mary’s guilt was present, though diverted by her desire to secure her country. While Conde quickly absolved them of wrongdoing, Catherine dressed Mary in royal fashion, admonishing her for her culpability in Francis’ illness. There was little in the way of redemptive damage control for the young queen.
Although she showed signs of remorse and seemed determined to not further her betrayal by the episode's end, she refused to take sole
accountability for the destruction of her marriage. She even went so far as to
say that she wished they could undo the harm they’d caused each other.
t is quite frankly bewildering that she believes Francis is guilty of any of this. Whatever role he played in the events that led to her assault was unintentional. All of the hurt she has caused him has been deliberate. The injured party appears, ent and it’s a party of one.

Side Notes/Burning Questions: Francis
liv, es but for how much longer? It was disturbing that Bash so easily
extinguished the life of poor Clarissa, whose fate was horrifyingly tragic.
Even creepier was the nurse’s calm demeanor as it happened. “Reign” dug into
its supernatural treasure chest and conjured up two. Can you say episode
MVP? Will Claude ever grow up? How does Mary live with herself? Francis keeping
his word to protect Scotland further solidified that he was the better person.
Vikings | As has
been evidenced over three seasons, the Vikings have a lot of traits that make
them ferocious warriors; one of those attributes is persistence. After
failing in their first attempt to conquer Paris, they were at again and met
with more success than last time. However, they still didn’t manage to defeat
the Parisian forces.
The battle sequences were incredibly well done -- intense, brutal, and gripping. Back at base camp, Ragnar was still attempting to overcome his battle injuries and, during that struggle, became “born again.” The symbology heavily alluded to Ragnar’s closing request, which was still quite surprising.

Whether Ragnar’s conversion to Christianity is his ultimate
revenge on Floki or a genuine way to stay with his friend in the afterlife
remains to be seen. It is strange why Rags would rather spend eternity with his best friend than with his already departed daughter and the family members destined to
join thee. The aftermath of his decision will have repercussions for
seasons to come (if he sticks to it). How it is handled in the season finale
will be incredibly compelling to watch play out.
Side Notes/Burning Questions: Where has the wanderer guy collecting all of this intelligence on different cultures been this time?
Certainly, Ragnar would have been utilizing him similarly. Hopefully, he sticks
around. He’d be a very interesting character to explore further.
