Cú Chulainn's foster brother Ferdia has been tricked by Medb to fight him, and so the brothers roll up their sleeves and get down to battle.

Cú Chulainn is battling his way through Quen Medb's army, a warrior a day and Medb is getting fed up, when she hears of a warrior the match of Cú Chulainn; his foster brother Ferdia, and she sets out to co-opt him to fight for her.

Medb finally gets a face to face with Cú Chulainn and can't reconcile his youthful appearance with the fierce warrior that they have been battling. His appearance notwithstanding, Medb knows that they must negotiate or she will soon have no army at the rate Cú Chulainn is slaughtering her men.

Medb, Ailill and their army are closing in on the brown bull of Cooley but they'll have to go through Cú Chulainn first and the bull himself has a bit of help from a goddess too!

Chúchulainn and Ibar are hurtling back to Emain Macha with the heads of the slain MacNecht brothers, but our young hero is not satisfied that this is enough, so he get a few more wild ideas . . .

Still with the boyhood deeds of the champion Cúchulain., lopping off heads and burning down castles, and he only seven years old!
