The last episode of History Channel's hit series Vikings, To the Gates, saw the defeat of King Ragnar in their attempt to capture the City of Lights. However, the King of Denmark is unrelenting and spoilers for the next episode entitled Breaking Point feature how the Vikings craft a more clever way to penetrate the heavily guarded fortress. Will they make it this time?

Teasers on Breaking Point show the Vikings swimming under the bridge that connects Paris to its mainland in order to successfully infiltrate the city. It is also highlighted in the trailer that the attack is made in the nighttimes distinct from their first shot. It is further shown that a number of Vikings manage to enter the city and King Charles is heard saying, "The Northmen are almost inside the city".

Aside from the evident subjugation of Paris, King Charles is faced with a difficult decision which may be related the fallen city or a choice in relation to her daughter Princess Gisla. In an interview to Clive Staden who plays Rollo, King Ragnak's brother, he provided important insights on the invasion by the Vikings of Paris.

"King Charles is a very different kind of ruler compared to Ecbert and Ragnar Lothbrok...the city has some weapons and things like anti-siege devices that the Vikings have never seen before, and they won't see it coming. Paris is far more prepared for the attack than the Saxons ever were."

Based from this, many speculate that despite what looks like King Ragnak's victory, several sources cite that Paris is not dominated based solely on a prophesy however it remains that the Vikings pose a considerable threat for Paris on this season. Furthermore, Staden admits Rollo transforms into a monster in the course of the events as he sees his brother rise to the pedestal while he remains who and what he is. Rollo feels only Siggy is there for him.

This week's episode is the penultimate episode before the season ends. Breaking Point airs on April 16 and the season finale airs on April 23.
