Medieval Scalders

During a siege, a castle's scalder gives his son a reassuring introduction to the family trade. He explains the craft, encourages the boy to find his own calling and offers safety advice that a nearby rock thrower ignores. Even a disastrous family memory becomes a lesson in professional development. The pair wait for the attackers to gather before emptying their cauldron, but an enemy archer soon demonstrates that the other side has its own father-and-son apprenticeship.

Macaulay Culkin's younger brother Kieran appears as the archer's son. Sources: https://www.snlarchives.net/Episodes/?1991112317 and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturday_Night_Live_season_17
