This time we see our very first King Magnus, someone who essentially gets the throne of Sweden by virtue of being the last man standing... But does being the only sensible choice do him any favours amidst some more classic back and forth between Sweden and Denmark?

This episode also gives us a chance to look into the election of Swedish kings and the ceremony behind such a process. It can provide opportunity for chaos and disruption though, as we see throughout Magnus' time in Sweden...
