In this epic episode we see the betrayal by Emperor Alexios, the divine discovery of the Holy Lance, and the crusaders’ hallucinatory blend of desperation and faith. Along the way, we have cameos from Hitler, conspiracy TikTokers, Vanilla Ice and Willie Nelson. It’s a wild ride through medieval fanaticism, modern delusion, and everything in between.
