Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:09,217 --> 00:00:14,179
( theme music playing )
2
00:00:48,798 --> 00:00:51,216
lt is a heavy thing,
3
00:00:51,384 --> 00:00:54,970
to see a father
so strong in life unable to rise.
4
00:00:55,138 --> 00:00:57,556
The weight of it keenly felt.
5
00:00:57,724 --> 00:01:00,517
Titus was much loved by this city.
6
00:01:00,685 --> 00:01:02,895
Hold comfort in the knowledge.
7
00:01:11,112 --> 00:01:14,198
The magistrate himself pays respects?
8
00:01:14,365 --> 00:01:16,325
lt's a great honor.
9
00:01:16,493 --> 00:01:18,744
For my father.
10
00:01:18,912 --> 00:01:21,705
Years l wished
for blistering tongue to cool,
11
00:01:21,873 --> 00:01:24,958
only to long for it
to scorch ear once more.
12
00:01:26,211 --> 00:01:29,129
Lucretia: l know you did not
wish him gone in such a manner.
13
00:01:29,297 --> 00:01:32,591
Nor did l,
despite our many differences.
14
00:01:32,759 --> 00:01:36,220
And yet the gods have willed it.
15
00:01:36,387 --> 00:01:38,972
The gods had no fucking hand in this.
16
00:01:39,140 --> 00:01:42,643
Tullius alone inflicts injury.
17
00:01:43,853 --> 00:01:46,814
And how shall it be answered?
18
00:01:46,981 --> 00:01:50,275
Apologies. Unwelcome guest
makes appearance.
19
00:01:54,697 --> 00:01:56,365
Vettius.
20
00:01:57,909 --> 00:02:00,160
Temper emotion and greet him
with measured voice.
21
00:02:00,328 --> 00:02:02,454
lt would serve no purpose
to have confrontation
22
00:02:02,622 --> 00:02:04,581
here in front of the magistrate.
23
00:02:04,749 --> 00:02:07,209
Good Batiatus.
24
00:02:07,377 --> 00:02:10,212
My sympathies
for the passing of your father.
25
00:02:10,380 --> 00:02:14,091
A titan, standing far above
all who follow.
26
00:02:14,259 --> 00:02:15,300
You come absent Tullius?
27
00:02:15,468 --> 00:02:17,886
l thought nothing could keep the man
from observance of such a tragedy.
28
00:02:18,054 --> 00:02:21,306
Well, he confers with dignitaries
from Antioch.
29
00:02:21,474 --> 00:02:24,017
- Antioch?
- He's engaged in business there,
30
00:02:24,185 --> 00:02:26,436
to the further glory of the Republic.
31
00:02:26,604 --> 00:02:28,981
He sends his regrets
that he could not be present,
32
00:02:29,149 --> 00:02:31,650
and a reminder
33
00:02:31,818 --> 00:02:34,987
that a bargain was struck
with your father before he passed
34
00:02:35,155 --> 00:02:37,823
concerning the sale of Gannicus.
35
00:02:37,991 --> 00:02:41,493
You dare broach subject
on such a fucking day?
36
00:02:41,661 --> 00:02:45,622
We have respectfully waited
for eight of them to pass.
37
00:02:46,666 --> 00:02:49,626
Your period of mourning
comes to conclusion.
38
00:02:49,794 --> 00:02:52,004
Tomorrow the sun greets a ninth day
39
00:02:52,172 --> 00:02:54,631
and with it we expect
delivery of Gannicus.
40
00:02:54,799 --> 00:02:58,051
Turn desire to piss and shit
41
00:02:58,219 --> 00:03:00,554
and see yourself well satisfied.
42
00:03:00,722 --> 00:03:03,557
Then Tullius will be forced to withdraw
offer to include your men
43
00:03:03,725 --> 00:03:06,268
in the opening games
of the new arena.
44
00:03:06,436 --> 00:03:08,687
And all that follow.
45
00:03:20,742 --> 00:03:23,619
Titus condemns
our brothers to the mines.
46
00:03:23,786 --> 00:03:25,871
Now we fucking honor him?
47
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:28,707
He was the dominus of this house
48
00:03:28,875 --> 00:03:30,834
and deserves no less.
49
00:03:31,002 --> 00:03:33,629
Spoken as a true champion.
50
00:04:00,823 --> 00:04:02,741
Gannicus: Apologies.
51
00:04:02,909 --> 00:04:04,868
Batiatus summons the men.
52
00:04:16,005 --> 00:04:18,590
You will see her ashes
beneath the ground?
53
00:04:19,717 --> 00:04:22,386
As is her people's custom.
54
00:04:23,554 --> 00:04:25,555
Gannicus:
l did not know of them.
55
00:04:25,723 --> 00:04:29,101
There are many things
that l did not pause to ask of her.
56
00:04:29,269 --> 00:04:32,396
Now l'm but filled with questions.
57
00:04:32,563 --> 00:04:35,482
Speak of her in quiet moments
58
00:04:35,650 --> 00:04:37,776
and see them answered.
59
00:04:39,988 --> 00:04:42,447
Oenomaus...
60
00:04:45,493 --> 00:04:47,995
she was the rarest of women,
61
00:04:48,162 --> 00:04:53,625
a flower of beauty and compassion
in a world full of shit.
62
00:04:53,793 --> 00:04:59,089
l would assume her place, so that her
laugh may once again fill solemn air.
63
00:04:59,257 --> 00:05:01,800
She would not wish it.
64
00:05:04,345 --> 00:05:06,847
She loved you.
65
00:05:08,641 --> 00:05:10,851
As a brother.
66
00:05:11,019 --> 00:05:14,229
As l loved her.
67
00:05:19,110 --> 00:05:23,238
Quintus: We stand upon sacred ground,
watered with tears of blood.
68
00:05:23,406 --> 00:05:27,451
Words l have often heard in my youth--
by my father,
69
00:05:27,618 --> 00:05:30,537
by his father before him.
70
00:05:30,705 --> 00:05:33,957
Yet only now
do l truly understand them.
71
00:05:35,376 --> 00:05:38,211
We've all felt
the bitter sting of loss.
72
00:05:39,255 --> 00:05:41,131
Yet here we stand.
73
00:05:42,842 --> 00:05:47,512
We have known the agony of heart
ripped yet beating from sundered chest.
74
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,808
And yet here we stand.
75
00:05:51,976 --> 00:05:55,479
The House of Batiatus
is no stranger to misfortune,
76
00:05:55,646 --> 00:05:57,981
to the cruel whims of the gods
77
00:05:58,149 --> 00:06:00,734
and base men who would position
themselves as such.
78
00:06:00,902 --> 00:06:04,029
And yet here we stand!
79
00:06:06,824 --> 00:06:10,243
This house is built
atop unshakable foundations
80
00:06:10,411 --> 00:06:13,330
of honor and respect.
81
00:06:13,498 --> 00:06:17,334
And in no man were
these qualities more evident
82
00:06:17,502 --> 00:06:21,046
than Titus Lentulus Batiatus.
83
00:06:21,214 --> 00:06:24,132
l will laud my father's memory
84
00:06:24,300 --> 00:06:26,134
by seeing the House of Batiatus
85
00:06:26,302 --> 00:06:29,721
elevated beyond the imaginings
of my ancestors.
86
00:06:29,889 --> 00:06:32,641
l will need all of you to see it done--
87
00:06:32,809 --> 00:06:36,228
men of hard purpose and desire.
88
00:06:36,396 --> 00:06:39,606
Let previous decisions fall aside.
89
00:06:39,774 --> 00:06:43,944
None of you will be sent to the mines,
regardless of standing!
90
00:06:44,112 --> 00:06:47,322
( chuckles )
91
00:06:50,660 --> 00:06:52,786
The sun has set on an era.
92
00:06:52,954 --> 00:06:57,332
Let us celebrate the name
Titus Lentulus Batiatus
93
00:06:57,500 --> 00:07:02,963
with drink and the clash of swords
to carry my father to the afterlife!
94
00:07:08,136 --> 00:07:10,387
Take position!
95
00:07:12,849 --> 00:07:15,767
Will you fight your man to conclusion
or drop your defense
96
00:07:15,935 --> 00:07:19,146
and allow for hollow victory,
as you did with me before Titus?
97
00:07:19,313 --> 00:07:23,400
You are champion now.
Do not broach fucking subject again.
98
00:07:24,694 --> 00:07:26,945
Quintus:
Spill blood upon the sands, but live
99
00:07:27,113 --> 00:07:31,783
to one day die with glory
and honor in the arena!
100
00:07:54,182 --> 00:07:55,307
Begin.
101
00:08:37,892 --> 00:08:40,060
This is all that remains--
102
00:08:40,228 --> 00:08:43,688
when the smoke clears
and the embers die...
103
00:08:46,025 --> 00:08:48,818
the sum total of a man's life.
104
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:59,079
This was my father's last act
before his death:
105
00:08:59,247 --> 00:09:01,665
a bill of sale transferring
your ownership.
106
00:09:02,959 --> 00:09:05,210
The cause that moved you
to seek audience on the day
107
00:09:05,378 --> 00:09:07,963
- l watched my father burn?
- Apologies, Dominus.
108
00:09:08,130 --> 00:09:10,048
l could wait no longer.
109
00:09:12,510 --> 00:09:16,221
We again find ourselves
in unpleasant position.
110
00:09:17,932 --> 00:09:21,851
To honor my father's wishes sees you
fall to control of a man most hated,
111
00:09:22,019 --> 00:09:25,272
to defy them sees this house
forever excluded from the new arena.
112
00:09:25,439 --> 00:09:28,149
A cock in the ass,
from either direction.
113
00:09:29,735 --> 00:09:33,196
Speak, and give reason to see
this join my father's ashes.
114
00:09:33,364 --> 00:09:35,407
l have no words towards such an end.
115
00:09:35,575 --> 00:09:37,742
l come to see agreement honored.
116
00:09:40,371 --> 00:09:42,289
You wish to leave this house?
117
00:09:42,456 --> 00:09:44,666
l wish to see blood.
118
00:09:44,834 --> 00:09:46,793
See me delivered to Tullius's care
119
00:09:46,961 --> 00:09:49,421
and l will see his life
for your father's.
120
00:09:50,548 --> 00:09:52,382
Noble offer.
121
00:09:52,550 --> 00:09:55,885
Yet l fear your life would be
forfeit in such attempt.
122
00:09:56,053 --> 00:09:58,722
A small price to pay.
123
00:09:59,724 --> 00:10:03,518
My father never aimed
a favored word towards you,
124
00:10:03,686 --> 00:10:06,605
yet you entreat to be the instrument
of his vengeance?
125
00:10:08,190 --> 00:10:10,233
Or is it another you seek it for?
126
00:10:14,113 --> 00:10:17,282
You would sacrifice your life
in the memory of hers?
127
00:10:17,450 --> 00:10:20,201
l would sacrifice a thousand,
if l'd but had them.
128
00:10:21,954 --> 00:10:23,830
lf you had such
stirrings for Melitta,
129
00:10:23,998 --> 00:10:27,208
why did you not fight harder
in the contest before my father?
130
00:10:27,376 --> 00:10:29,961
You could have taken Crixus
and remained here,
131
00:10:30,129 --> 00:10:31,671
close to your heart's desires.
132
00:10:31,839 --> 00:10:33,965
The match was lost
before sword was ever raised.
133
00:10:34,133 --> 00:10:36,134
The same could be said
of your plans against Tullius.
134
00:10:36,302 --> 00:10:38,470
He is forever surrounded
not only by his own men,
135
00:10:38,638 --> 00:10:42,015
but by good citizens who would quickly
come to the aid of such a ''noble'' Roman.
136
00:10:42,183 --> 00:10:45,101
- Then they too shall fall.
- You do not fucking think!
137
00:10:45,269 --> 00:10:49,648
This grants ownership
to Tullius' lapdog Vettius.
138
00:10:49,815 --> 00:10:52,317
You'll be sent to the boy's ludus
in fucking Nola.
139
00:10:52,485 --> 00:10:55,320
A year could pass before you find
yourself close enough to Tullius.
140
00:10:55,488 --> 00:10:58,114
l would suffer a lifetime
but to have the chance to strike.
141
00:10:58,282 --> 00:11:00,784
This house would be
the one that suffers!
142
00:11:00,951 --> 00:11:03,828
A year of the greatest gladiator
in the Republic
143
00:11:03,996 --> 00:11:07,082
fighting for those shits!?
A year of you needing to win
144
00:11:07,249 --> 00:11:09,751
each fight against my fucking men
145
00:11:09,919 --> 00:11:14,214
in the hopes of gaining
an audience with Tullius.
146
00:11:14,382 --> 00:11:17,926
Will he not wish to see the man
he has fought so hard to gain
147
00:11:18,094 --> 00:11:21,054
- when so delivered?
- ln chains, absent weapons.
148
00:11:21,222 --> 00:11:23,264
Then l will use my hands!
149
00:11:23,432 --> 00:11:25,767
Your desires are well noted.
150
00:11:27,353 --> 00:11:30,271
l will weigh argument and come
to an answer in the balance.
151
00:11:32,358 --> 00:11:34,442
Dominus.
152
00:11:40,783 --> 00:11:42,617
Fetch more wine.
153
00:11:44,328 --> 00:11:46,371
Vettius's appearance was ill-timed.
154
00:11:46,539 --> 00:11:49,207
He is a dog,
untrained where not to shit.
155
00:11:49,375 --> 00:11:52,419
The hand that grips his leash
is of greater concern.
156
00:11:52,586 --> 00:11:54,921
Has Quintus voiced thought
towards Tullius?
157
00:11:55,089 --> 00:11:56,715
He has not.
158
00:11:57,967 --> 00:12:02,262
Yet what would any of us do to see
the death of one so loved avenged?
159
00:12:02,430 --> 00:12:05,014
The very heart of my concern.
160
00:12:05,182 --> 00:12:08,143
To take action against Tullius is
to invite mortal consequence.
161
00:12:08,310 --> 00:12:11,104
He has made repeated attacks against
this house. You'd have us do nothing?
162
00:12:11,272 --> 00:12:12,897
l would have you live.
163
00:12:13,065 --> 00:12:16,776
lf the situation with Tullius turns
to further disadvantage,
164
00:12:16,944 --> 00:12:20,113
know that you may always
seek refuge beneath my roof.
165
00:12:23,534 --> 00:12:26,828
- As friend.
- Where is the fucking wine?
166
00:12:26,996 --> 00:12:30,081
- Lucretia: Naevia brings more.
- ( sighs )
167
00:12:30,249 --> 00:12:31,583
l should take my leave.
168
00:12:31,751 --> 00:12:33,918
No stay.
l would have your counsel.
169
00:12:34,086 --> 00:12:36,796
Gannicus presses to honor
terms towards his sale.
170
00:12:36,964 --> 00:12:39,466
- Then the matter is resolved.
- Fuck resolution.
171
00:12:39,633 --> 00:12:41,801
The man only desires
close proximity to Tullius
172
00:12:41,969 --> 00:12:43,595
and the villain's throat
beneath his hands.
173
00:12:43,763 --> 00:12:47,223
He would kill Tullius for us?
Do you believe it possible?
174
00:12:47,391 --> 00:12:49,017
You speak of madness!
175
00:12:49,185 --> 00:12:51,811
Tullius is far too cautious
to ever lower guard,
176
00:12:51,979 --> 00:12:55,273
especially in the presence of a man
loyal to the House of Batiatus.
177
00:12:55,441 --> 00:12:57,859
And what would brave Solonius
do in my fucking position?!
178
00:12:58,027 --> 00:13:00,236
Turn blind eye towards
the murder of his father?
179
00:13:00,404 --> 00:13:03,072
He would be certain
to strike appropriate target.
180
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,909
What if Tullius had no hand in this?
181
00:13:06,076 --> 00:13:08,077
His gift of wine was tainted with death.
182
00:13:08,245 --> 00:13:12,332
But was it by Tullius's hand?
Or another moved by equal grievance?
183
00:13:12,500 --> 00:13:15,293
What if Vettius is
the true cause of this?
184
00:13:15,461 --> 00:13:17,462
The boy's hatred for you
is well known.
185
00:13:18,714 --> 00:13:19,881
You are right.
186
00:13:20,049 --> 00:13:22,926
Vengeance would stand a hollow vessel
were it not filled with retribution
187
00:13:23,093 --> 00:13:26,596
against all who have injured this house,
including young Vettius.
188
00:13:26,764 --> 00:13:29,265
- You twist my intention.
- He but straightens purpose.
189
00:13:29,433 --> 00:13:31,768
ls this not what set tragedy in motion?
190
00:13:31,936 --> 00:13:34,854
Arrogance and impatience?
You're forever reaching beyond grasp,
191
00:13:35,022 --> 00:13:37,065
and dragging those beside you
as you fall.
192
00:13:37,233 --> 00:13:39,150
And you have never had
the stomach to do what it takes
193
00:13:39,318 --> 00:13:40,944
to make a fucking
name in this world!
194
00:13:41,111 --> 00:13:44,405
Good Solonius, forever bowing
and scraping in the shit of his betters.
195
00:13:44,573 --> 00:13:47,158
ls it any wonder no woman
would have you?
196
00:13:47,326 --> 00:13:49,869
Emotion carries us beyond reason.
197
00:13:50,037 --> 00:13:52,413
Solonius has been as a brother to us.
198
00:13:54,166 --> 00:13:56,751
lt has been a trying day
in a long succession of many.
199
00:13:56,919 --> 00:13:59,587
Apologies.
200
00:13:59,755 --> 00:14:02,507
l have asked much of our friendship,
with little reward.
201
00:14:02,675 --> 00:14:05,635
Yet l must seek more
202
00:14:05,803 --> 00:14:08,888
if we are to see injuries
against our house redressed.
203
00:14:12,852 --> 00:14:14,227
What are your thoughts?
204
00:14:14,395 --> 00:14:16,813
They yet stand clouded.
205
00:14:16,981 --> 00:14:19,983
Come. Let us put our minds together
and see them cleared.
206
00:14:30,661 --> 00:14:32,745
( tapping )
207
00:14:41,839 --> 00:14:44,841
This mark carries great honor,
208
00:14:45,009 --> 00:14:48,428
and even greater responsibility.
209
00:14:49,471 --> 00:14:53,016
Melitta held many years
as my body slave...
210
00:14:54,810 --> 00:14:58,146
and shall be missed
beyond the measure of words.
211
00:15:01,859 --> 00:15:05,153
l expect equal loyalty from you now.
212
00:15:05,321 --> 00:15:09,532
You are always to stand by my side,
never to leave it.
213
00:15:09,700 --> 00:15:12,660
Or this house,
as Diona chose.
214
00:15:14,330 --> 00:15:16,789
Oh, l understand why she fled.
215
00:15:18,375 --> 00:15:22,962
lt was an unfortunate thing to be
so used by men for base entertainment.
216
00:15:23,130 --> 00:15:26,341
l understand it,
yet cannot forgive.
217
00:15:26,508 --> 00:15:29,135
Yes, Domina.
218
00:15:31,055 --> 00:15:33,264
Lucretia: What l can do
219
00:15:33,432 --> 00:15:35,934
is make promise
220
00:15:36,101 --> 00:15:39,562
that no one will ever
lay hands upon you for sport.
221
00:15:39,730 --> 00:15:43,441
Your maidenhood will be
preserved as a precious gift
222
00:15:43,609 --> 00:15:45,485
and given only to the most worthy,
223
00:15:45,653 --> 00:15:47,737
as Melitta was given to Oenomaus.
224
00:15:57,289 --> 00:16:00,291
There.
225
00:16:00,459 --> 00:16:02,627
We are forever
bound to each other.
226
00:16:02,795 --> 00:16:04,837
Bring oil and a sharpened blade.
227
00:16:05,005 --> 00:16:07,048
l would be rid
of this fucking beard.
228
00:16:07,216 --> 00:16:08,591
Solonius?
229
00:16:08,759 --> 00:16:10,843
Courage hardened
and hands set to task.
230
00:16:11,011 --> 00:16:12,720
Then you've come to decision.
231
00:16:12,888 --> 00:16:14,973
One that not even good Tullius
will see coming.
232
00:16:15,140 --> 00:16:17,058
Gather my father's ashes
and tell Oenomaus
233
00:16:17,226 --> 00:16:19,435
to prepare Gannicus
to leave these walls.
234
00:16:39,623 --> 00:16:41,666
Brother.
235
00:16:41,834 --> 00:16:44,252
You are too late.
236
00:16:44,420 --> 00:16:46,212
l have finished the wine.
237
00:16:46,380 --> 00:16:50,508
Would that l had enough
to sink to the fucking bottom.
238
00:16:55,097 --> 00:16:58,391
Dominus orders you
prepared for transport.
239
00:16:58,559 --> 00:17:00,601
l am to be sold then?
240
00:17:00,769 --> 00:17:02,854
What seizes Batiatus--
241
00:17:03,022 --> 00:17:05,440
to give you to Tullius
after what he has done?
242
00:17:05,607 --> 00:17:08,192
The man has lost fucking sense.
243
00:17:08,360 --> 00:17:10,069
Then question mine as well.
244
00:17:10,237 --> 00:17:12,613
You wish this?
245
00:17:12,781 --> 00:17:15,283
l wish to stand before Tullius
246
00:17:15,451 --> 00:17:17,618
and have his fucking life.
247
00:17:17,786 --> 00:17:20,913
You would have better chance
flinging yourself from the cliff
248
00:17:21,081 --> 00:17:22,874
and praying to land upon him.
249
00:17:23,042 --> 00:17:24,917
lt was his fucking wine.
250
00:17:25,085 --> 00:17:26,794
lf she had--
251
00:17:29,298 --> 00:17:31,758
all those who had hand
in her passing must pay,
252
00:17:31,925 --> 00:17:34,093
regardless of cost.
253
00:17:38,390 --> 00:17:41,184
lt was a gift for Titus--
254
00:17:41,351 --> 00:17:43,978
Tullius's wine.
255
00:17:44,146 --> 00:17:47,023
How did it come to pass her lips?
She was no thief.
256
00:17:47,191 --> 00:17:49,567
What answer would matter now?
257
00:17:49,735 --> 00:17:52,195
She is gone and the men
that took her soon to follow.
258
00:17:52,362 --> 00:17:55,948
l would rather you join her now than see
another so close to me fall to Tullius.
259
00:17:56,116 --> 00:17:57,742
The choice is removed from your hands.
260
00:17:57,910 --> 00:18:00,953
- l will break words with Batiatus.
- Oenomaus, this is how it must be.
261
00:18:01,121 --> 00:18:03,289
She would not have wanted this.
262
00:18:05,209 --> 00:18:07,794
When l meet her in the afterlife,
263
00:18:07,961 --> 00:18:13,049
l do not wish to explain why l allowed
a man we both loved to forfeit his life.
264
00:18:14,802 --> 00:18:17,845
l have lost my wife.
265
00:18:20,432 --> 00:18:23,226
l do not want to see
my brother follow.
266
00:18:26,522 --> 00:18:28,106
He deserves no less.
267
00:18:33,821 --> 00:18:34,821
Oenomaus--
268
00:18:34,988 --> 00:18:37,031
Quintus:
The time for words has passed.
269
00:18:38,659 --> 00:18:40,201
- Dominus.
- Prepare the wagon.
270
00:18:40,369 --> 00:18:42,703
We leave at once.
271
00:18:52,047 --> 00:18:54,006
What words were you
about to fucking speak?
272
00:18:54,174 --> 00:18:56,342
- Ones weighted with truth.
- Towards what purpose?
273
00:18:56,510 --> 00:18:57,635
He deserves to know.
274
00:18:57,803 --> 00:18:59,971
This is not about him.
275
00:19:00,139 --> 00:19:02,974
lt is about Gannicus
and his fucking conscience.
276
00:19:03,142 --> 00:19:06,978
Speak it, and see memory
of beloved wife forever tainted.
277
00:19:07,146 --> 00:19:09,480
l cannot keep buried
what l have done.
278
00:19:09,648 --> 00:19:12,150
Then see it remain in shallow grave
but a while longer.
279
00:19:12,317 --> 00:19:16,362
How am l to unearth it
once l have been sold to Tullius?
280
00:19:16,530 --> 00:19:21,325
l do not sell you to fucking Tullius.
281
00:19:21,493 --> 00:19:23,119
( shouts )
282
00:19:26,540 --> 00:19:28,791
Batiatus again spits in my face?
283
00:19:28,959 --> 00:19:30,877
News absent surprise.
284
00:19:31,044 --> 00:19:34,338
A snake by nature favors
maneuvering upon its belly.
285
00:19:34,506 --> 00:19:37,133
l would stand upright
among honorable men.
286
00:19:40,012 --> 00:19:41,637
Where does he take Gannicus?
287
00:19:41,805 --> 00:19:43,931
Batiatus sent me to secure sale
288
00:19:44,099 --> 00:19:46,058
to the Syrian trader Galeagra.
289
00:19:46,226 --> 00:19:49,812
By morning Gannicus will be on a ship
sailing towards points unknown,
290
00:19:49,980 --> 00:19:52,231
forever beyond your reach.
291
00:19:52,399 --> 00:19:56,027
You aided Batiatus in this?
292
00:19:56,195 --> 00:19:58,029
l have known the man for many years.
293
00:19:58,197 --> 00:19:59,947
l was conflicted.
294
00:20:00,115 --> 00:20:01,490
As am l...
295
00:20:03,535 --> 00:20:06,495
on whether to strip flesh
from your fucking face.
296
00:20:06,663 --> 00:20:08,372
Wait! l came to you with this.
297
00:20:08,540 --> 00:20:09,540
After the fact.
298
00:20:09,708 --> 00:20:12,877
There is still time. He meets the Syrian
at the edge of the city.
299
00:20:16,882 --> 00:20:18,382
Gather the men.
300
00:20:20,010 --> 00:20:23,095
l cannot believe even Batiatus so thick
301
00:20:23,263 --> 00:20:25,681
as to imagine concealing such an act.
302
00:20:25,849 --> 00:20:28,601
He will spin the story
of Gannicus escaping--
303
00:20:28,769 --> 00:20:32,355
to perhaps follow his slave girl Diona,
who recently went to foot.
304
00:20:32,522 --> 00:20:35,608
He thinks me the fool,
to accept the tale?
305
00:20:35,776 --> 00:20:39,028
Batiatus knows you will summon him
to meeting to discuss the matter.
306
00:20:39,196 --> 00:20:42,198
He lays plans to see much coin
in your men's hands,
307
00:20:42,366 --> 00:20:46,285
payment in aid against your life
when he stands before you.
308
00:20:46,453 --> 00:20:49,330
( chuckles )
The fucking cock on him.
309
00:20:49,498 --> 00:20:51,707
( laughter )
310
00:20:53,585 --> 00:20:56,712
Batiatus has always thought himself
above those around him--
311
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,507
even closest friend.
312
00:21:01,468 --> 00:21:04,053
l shall prove the notion false
313
00:21:04,221 --> 00:21:08,349
and see fucking son join his father.
314
00:21:25,158 --> 00:21:27,159
Where are they?
315
00:21:27,327 --> 00:21:28,828
l'll search ahead.
316
00:21:28,996 --> 00:21:32,123
Stay where you are. l will not
have you from my fucking side.
317
00:21:32,291 --> 00:21:35,543
lf you had sold me to Tullius,
no one else's life would be at risk.
318
00:21:35,711 --> 00:21:37,962
With great risk comes great reward.
319
00:21:38,130 --> 00:21:39,797
And l would have mine.
320
00:21:41,967 --> 00:21:44,635
The Syrians arrive.
321
00:21:52,102 --> 00:21:55,980
l grow weary
of these games, Batiatus,
322
00:21:56,148 --> 00:21:59,525
and would see them to bitter end.
323
00:21:59,693 --> 00:22:01,652
As would l.
324
00:22:15,751 --> 00:22:18,377
Come.
Let us embrace,
325
00:22:18,545 --> 00:22:20,629
you fucking cunt.
326
00:22:25,093 --> 00:22:27,303
Come on!
327
00:22:57,209 --> 00:22:59,293
Ashur!
328
00:23:00,962 --> 00:23:02,922
Fucking kill him, Barca!
329
00:23:09,346 --> 00:23:11,222
You!
330
00:23:11,390 --> 00:23:14,683
Fuck you, you fucking shit.
You fuck!
331
00:23:28,949 --> 00:23:30,074
Wait, hold!
332
00:23:31,076 --> 00:23:33,244
l said hold.
333
00:23:37,416 --> 00:23:41,043
Such a death would be far too quick.
334
00:23:43,713 --> 00:23:45,881
Bind him.
335
00:23:53,390 --> 00:23:55,933
And you.
336
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,730
You played your part
to fucking perfection!
337
00:24:01,898 --> 00:24:04,316
( laughing )
338
00:24:04,484 --> 00:24:07,903
lt was not difficult. When passion
for vengeance overtakes caution,
339
00:24:08,071 --> 00:24:10,656
even the keenest of minds
is easily deceived.
340
00:24:10,824 --> 00:24:12,491
Modest to the fucking last.
341
00:24:12,659 --> 00:24:15,411
See these bodies put to grass
and get yourself to the medicus.
342
00:24:15,579 --> 00:24:17,121
You're sure to your purpose?
343
00:24:17,289 --> 00:24:19,748
My path has never been clearer.
344
00:24:22,127 --> 00:24:24,170
Good Tullius.
345
00:24:26,506 --> 00:24:28,382
Let us have final words
346
00:24:28,550 --> 00:24:30,843
before you depart this life.
347
00:24:39,936 --> 00:24:42,605
Ah, the lamb finally wakes.
348
00:24:42,772 --> 00:24:45,691
- ( grunting )
- Calm yourself.
349
00:24:45,859 --> 00:24:48,194
l merely wish to break words.
350
00:24:49,946 --> 00:24:52,239
Seek to raise alarm
and find throat slit
351
00:24:52,407 --> 00:24:54,992
well in advance of aid.
We are clear?
352
00:25:00,582 --> 00:25:02,625
You are fucking dead.
353
00:25:02,792 --> 00:25:06,170
Threats absent form
without Tullius to support them.
354
00:25:06,338 --> 00:25:09,006
What have you done to him?
355
00:25:09,174 --> 00:25:11,050
Not me.
l have done nothing.
356
00:25:11,218 --> 00:25:15,095
ln all of this, l have never known
quarrel with good Tullius.
357
00:25:15,263 --> 00:25:18,933
Yet Batiatus...
he is of a contrary nature.
358
00:25:19,100 --> 00:25:22,811
And moves even as we speak
to end his conflict with your man.
359
00:25:22,979 --> 00:25:24,522
Forever.
360
00:25:24,689 --> 00:25:26,732
The opening of the arena is upon us.
361
00:25:26,900 --> 00:25:31,028
Tullius' absence will be noted,
and your part in it quick upon heel.
362
00:25:31,196 --> 00:25:35,491
You are mistaken. No one will suspect
Tullius has left this world--
363
00:25:35,659 --> 00:25:39,119
not when trusted Vettius heralds news
that he has unexpectedly
364
00:25:39,287 --> 00:25:43,165
set sail abroad to tend
to pressing matters in Antioch.
365
00:25:43,333 --> 00:25:46,252
What would move tongue
to voice such fucking lie?
366
00:25:46,419 --> 00:25:50,047
lt would more easily forms words
to see you and Batiatus
367
00:25:50,215 --> 00:25:51,882
executed for your crimes.
368
00:25:52,050 --> 00:25:54,176
Based upon what evidence?
369
00:25:54,344 --> 00:25:57,388
We were not found knife in hand,
kneeling beside body.
370
00:25:57,556 --> 00:26:01,850
A body which even now Batiatus
conceals beyond reach of human eyes.
371
00:26:02,018 --> 00:26:03,978
No, my concern
372
00:26:04,145 --> 00:26:06,480
rests with your safety.
373
00:26:08,441 --> 00:26:10,943
Attempt to raise
unwarranted suspicion,
374
00:26:11,111 --> 00:26:14,697
and Batiatus would be sure
to take offense.
375
00:26:14,864 --> 00:26:17,575
And without Tullius
to protect you...
376
00:26:20,287 --> 00:26:24,039
Ah. Youth finally matures.
377
00:26:25,709 --> 00:26:27,293
Now we have settled issue,
378
00:26:27,460 --> 00:26:30,754
let us turn to other matters
of a more personal nature.
379
00:26:35,427 --> 00:26:37,344
Lucretia:
All things change.
380
00:26:37,512 --> 00:26:41,098
What we hold close to our hearts
eventually pass from this world.
381
00:26:44,352 --> 00:26:47,271
And what we once
turned from in disgust...
382
00:26:48,982 --> 00:26:50,733
we embrace as necessity.
383
00:26:54,988 --> 00:26:56,488
Raise your eyes.
384
00:26:59,784 --> 00:27:01,744
What do you see?
385
00:27:01,911 --> 00:27:03,662
The domina of the house.
386
00:27:03,830 --> 00:27:05,706
ls that all?
387
00:27:05,874 --> 00:27:08,417
l see a woman
388
00:27:08,585 --> 00:27:10,544
unlike any l have seen before.
389
00:27:11,588 --> 00:27:13,380
Better.
390
00:27:13,548 --> 00:27:16,050
l did not think l had pleased you
391
00:27:16,217 --> 00:27:19,011
when last called to your chambers.
392
00:27:20,930 --> 00:27:23,724
l love my husband beyond all men
393
00:27:23,892 --> 00:27:27,478
and l would do anything for him
394
00:27:27,646 --> 00:27:30,356
and his legacy.
395
00:27:33,693 --> 00:27:37,154
l did not seek pleasure.
l need only your cock.
396
00:27:37,322 --> 00:27:40,991
But speak of this and see it
parted from your body.
397
00:27:48,375 --> 00:27:50,334
Yes, Domina.
398
00:27:51,836 --> 00:27:55,381
Your hair and your beard
399
00:27:55,548 --> 00:27:58,425
give the appearance
of a fucking animal.
400
00:27:58,593 --> 00:28:01,470
l would have you reformed
into the semblance of a man
401
00:28:01,638 --> 00:28:05,265
to make the lie l must tell myself
more convincing.
402
00:28:30,834 --> 00:28:32,876
( gate opens )
403
00:28:39,592 --> 00:28:42,219
( groaning )
404
00:28:44,389 --> 00:28:46,306
A game well played, Batiatus.
405
00:28:46,474 --> 00:28:49,309
Now
406
00:28:49,477 --> 00:28:51,019
let us come to terms.
407
00:28:53,148 --> 00:28:56,358
Your man Gannicus obviously
means a great deal to you,
408
00:28:56,526 --> 00:28:59,319
to press to such extremes.
409
00:28:59,487 --> 00:29:02,948
l will cease my pursuit of him.
410
00:29:03,116 --> 00:29:04,366
Offer more.
411
00:29:04,534 --> 00:29:07,578
l will see your house take prominence
in all upcoming games.
412
00:29:07,746 --> 00:29:09,955
More.
413
00:29:10,123 --> 00:29:12,374
Speak desire and see it attended.
414
00:29:12,542 --> 00:29:14,835
l desire to see you suffer
415
00:29:15,003 --> 00:29:17,463
as l have suffered
at your fucking hands.
416
00:29:17,630 --> 00:29:20,466
Your suffering
has only begun, lanista,
417
00:29:20,633 --> 00:29:23,677
when it is discovered
what you have done to me!
418
00:29:23,845 --> 00:29:26,805
You will not be discovered,
nor missed.
419
00:29:26,973 --> 00:29:29,099
Solonius moves young Vettius
420
00:29:29,267 --> 00:29:32,770
towards offering proper explanation
for your disappearance.
421
00:29:32,937 --> 00:29:34,062
Vettius?
422
00:29:34,230 --> 00:29:36,440
Oh, the city will mourn.
423
00:29:36,608 --> 00:29:39,610
Soon your name will be
spoken of less and less,
424
00:29:39,778 --> 00:29:42,529
until it is lost to history.
425
00:29:42,697 --> 00:29:47,284
Tullius: l should have had your life
at the beginning of this.
426
00:29:47,452 --> 00:29:49,369
The mistake is mine,
427
00:29:49,537 --> 00:29:51,580
having stayed hand
428
00:29:51,748 --> 00:29:53,957
in respect of your father.
429
00:29:54,125 --> 00:29:55,667
Respect?
430
00:30:03,718 --> 00:30:06,887
Pay it to the remains
of the man himself.
431
00:30:07,889 --> 00:30:10,182
Tell him! Tell him
432
00:30:10,350 --> 00:30:13,644
how high you hold him
even as your poisoned wine
433
00:30:13,812 --> 00:30:17,689
robbed him of fucking life!
Tell him. Tell him, you fucking shit!
434
00:30:19,025 --> 00:30:22,694
Why should l strike against your father?
435
00:30:22,862 --> 00:30:25,447
He was an honorable Roman--
436
00:30:26,741 --> 00:30:29,535
a man who knew his place.
437
00:30:29,702 --> 00:30:32,246
As l know yours.
438
00:30:32,413 --> 00:30:36,041
There will be an accounting, Batiatus...
439
00:30:38,127 --> 00:30:41,505
for this and everything that follows.
440
00:30:43,258 --> 00:30:45,592
The gods will see to it someday.
441
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,428
Yes, but not this one.
442
00:30:52,141 --> 00:30:53,392
( screams )
443
00:30:57,230 --> 00:30:59,481
( groaning )
444
00:31:42,191 --> 00:31:43,483
( grunts )
445
00:31:43,651 --> 00:31:46,820
This arena was your life...
446
00:31:46,988 --> 00:31:48,488
add to its foundations.
447
00:32:00,376 --> 00:32:02,586
( cheering )
448
00:32:14,390 --> 00:32:16,725
Capua!
449
00:32:22,607 --> 00:32:25,108
Quintus:
Have eyes ever beheld such a sight?
450
00:32:25,276 --> 00:32:27,527
The laurel crown of the Republic.
451
00:32:27,695 --> 00:32:30,656
lts majesty even more evident
when viewed from the pulvinus.
452
00:32:30,823 --> 00:32:33,325
Oh, a great honor
to be invited by Tullius.
453
00:32:33,493 --> 00:32:37,162
One l fear undeserved, yet he is
a difficult man to turn from, huh?
454
00:32:37,330 --> 00:32:40,540
- ( horns playing )
- A fact well known to all present.
455
00:32:40,708 --> 00:32:42,376
l am surprised by his delay.
456
00:32:42,543 --> 00:32:44,670
The opening of the arena has been
the only subject on his tongue.
457
00:32:44,837 --> 00:32:47,172
Now he stands late
to his own celebration.
458
00:32:55,056 --> 00:32:56,890
Apologies.
459
00:32:57,058 --> 00:33:01,061
Tullius regrets
he will be absent altogether.
460
00:33:01,229 --> 00:33:04,064
What could wrest him
from so high a perch?
461
00:33:04,232 --> 00:33:06,525
Pressing concerns
abroad in Antioch.
462
00:33:06,693 --> 00:33:09,778
His departure was unexpected.
463
00:33:09,946 --> 00:33:12,864
Lucretia: The arena
would not exist without Tullius.
464
00:33:13,032 --> 00:33:15,951
We would not be standing here
if it weren't for his actions.
465
00:33:16,119 --> 00:33:18,537
We should halt the celebrations
until his return.
466
00:33:18,705 --> 00:33:20,497
Agreed.
l shall address the crowd.
467
00:33:20,665 --> 00:33:23,834
No, Tullius sends hard instruction
for ceremony to carry without him.
468
00:33:25,378 --> 00:33:27,921
This arena was a gift
to his beloved city.
469
00:33:28,089 --> 00:33:32,300
He would not see misfortune
stand in the way of the giving of it.
470
00:33:32,468 --> 00:33:34,594
Magistrate:
A most gracious offer,
471
00:33:34,762 --> 00:33:36,888
well received. Come.
472
00:33:37,056 --> 00:33:40,392
Haunt Tullius' place by my side,
possessing his spirit for the occasion.
473
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,602
Again l must offer apology.
474
00:33:42,770 --> 00:33:45,689
l make preparations
to follow Tullius to Antioch.
475
00:33:45,857 --> 00:33:48,316
And what of your ventures here?
Your ludus?
476
00:33:48,484 --> 00:33:51,653
l am retiring from the lowly
call of the lanista
477
00:33:51,821 --> 00:33:56,366
in favor of station more
befitting a man of breeding.
478
00:33:56,534 --> 00:33:59,244
What will become of your men?
They fight this very day.
479
00:33:59,412 --> 00:34:02,039
l would not see
your brief labors turn to naught.
480
00:34:02,206 --> 00:34:05,459
Solonius and l can make
fair offer to divide them.
481
00:34:05,626 --> 00:34:07,878
Deeply appreciated,
yet unnecessary.
482
00:34:08,046 --> 00:34:10,964
Solonius and l have already
come to terms.
483
00:34:11,132 --> 00:34:12,591
Terms?
484
00:34:12,759 --> 00:34:16,636
l've transferred deed
to all my gladiators to Solonius,
485
00:34:16,804 --> 00:34:19,931
under whose noble banner
they will fight this day.
486
00:34:20,099 --> 00:34:22,517
Magistrate:
You are indeed blessed, Solonius.
487
00:34:22,685 --> 00:34:26,313
Well, your ludus now stands
above all others in sheer numbers.
488
00:34:26,481 --> 00:34:28,356
May the gods continue to show favor.
489
00:34:28,524 --> 00:34:31,151
- Huh.
- Vettius: l must take my leave.
490
00:34:31,319 --> 00:34:34,988
Give good Solonius all consideration
towards future games.
491
00:34:35,156 --> 00:34:38,825
Tullius and l will have it so.
492
00:34:41,037 --> 00:34:43,705
You are overly generous.
Come. l would see you away.
493
00:34:48,044 --> 00:34:50,003
The boy all but runs from us.
494
00:34:53,966 --> 00:34:57,177
Vettius has always been
little more than Tullius' pet.
495
00:34:57,345 --> 00:35:00,347
ls it any wonder he runs to heel
when leash is jerked?
496
00:35:00,515 --> 00:35:02,474
Batiatus speaks truth.
497
00:35:02,642 --> 00:35:04,810
Let us put absent friends from mind
498
00:35:04,977 --> 00:35:07,437
and turn towards
the glories of the day.
499
00:35:14,612 --> 00:35:16,071
You have done well.
500
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,198
l but dance to the yank of strings.
501
00:35:18,366 --> 00:35:20,158
Avoid them forming a noose,
502
00:35:20,326 --> 00:35:23,245
and never return to Capua
while l draw breath.
503
00:35:23,412 --> 00:35:25,831
l pray for the day it ceases.
504
00:35:28,251 --> 00:35:30,502
We were supposed to divide
Vettius' men among us.
505
00:35:30,670 --> 00:35:32,212
What the fuck are you doing?
506
00:35:32,380 --> 00:35:34,840
What it takes to make
a name in this world--
507
00:35:35,007 --> 00:35:37,884
after years of
''bowing and scraping in shit.''
508
00:35:38,052 --> 00:35:41,388
ls that what this is about? A few words
spoken in anger absent thought?
509
00:35:41,556 --> 00:35:42,931
A few words?
510
00:35:43,099 --> 00:35:45,183
You name me friend and brother,
511
00:35:45,351 --> 00:35:48,311
yet at every turn remind
that l lack this trait or that.
512
00:35:48,479 --> 00:35:51,731
You take information given in aid
and move against Tullius,
513
00:35:51,899 --> 00:35:55,026
absent regard of the difficult
position it places me.
514
00:35:55,194 --> 00:35:56,695
You talk of nothing!
515
00:35:56,863 --> 00:35:59,531
Every tongue that is not your own
is accused of the same.
516
00:35:59,699 --> 00:36:02,159
lt has taken years
517
00:36:02,326 --> 00:36:05,579
and the price of blood, but at last
l see you for what you are--
518
00:36:05,746 --> 00:36:09,457
a man who holds no one
in esteem beyond himself.
519
00:36:11,127 --> 00:36:12,919
l owe you gratitude.
520
00:36:13,087 --> 00:36:15,213
Without you to show the way,
521
00:36:15,381 --> 00:36:18,383
l would never have raised the nerve
to betray those closest to me.
522
00:36:23,556 --> 00:36:26,266
( cheering continues )
523
00:36:31,814 --> 00:36:33,565
What excuse does Solonius give?
524
00:36:33,733 --> 00:36:36,151
None that merit consideration.
525
00:36:38,446 --> 00:36:39,946
( crowd booing )
526
00:36:40,114 --> 00:36:41,907
Batiatus:
What has the crowd in such a state?
527
00:36:42,074 --> 00:36:45,327
Sextus announces executions
before the games begin.
528
00:37:05,765 --> 00:37:08,183
ls that not one of yours, Batiatus?
529
00:37:08,351 --> 00:37:12,145
The girl on the end.
What was her name?
530
00:37:17,068 --> 00:37:19,402
Diona.
531
00:37:19,570 --> 00:37:21,529
( laughs )
532
00:37:23,241 --> 00:37:26,243
Diona, yes.
533
00:37:26,410 --> 00:37:28,245
Apologies, Batiatus.
534
00:37:28,412 --> 00:37:30,538
The girl was only
rounded up this morning.
535
00:37:30,706 --> 00:37:33,458
lf you wish her removed
to be dealt with personally--
536
00:37:35,294 --> 00:37:38,672
No, let her death stand
as a warning
537
00:37:38,839 --> 00:37:41,258
to all others who would
seek to betray me.
538
00:37:52,353 --> 00:37:55,730
Caburus is your man now,
Solonius.
539
00:37:55,898 --> 00:37:58,275
Rise and see him to purpose.
540
00:37:58,442 --> 00:38:00,110
As you wish.
541
00:39:09,347 --> 00:39:10,847
( gasps )
542
00:39:30,409 --> 00:39:33,995
Pity, to lose one so...
543
00:39:34,163 --> 00:39:35,997
fetching.
544
00:39:36,165 --> 00:39:38,416
Soon you join cunt.
545
00:39:41,045 --> 00:39:43,671
Doctore!
546
00:39:45,174 --> 00:39:48,093
l can fight.
Have word with Dominus.
547
00:39:49,387 --> 00:39:50,303
( grunts )
548
00:39:50,471 --> 00:39:52,305
l already have.
549
00:39:52,473 --> 00:39:54,682
Now aid your brothers
in preparing for the day.
550
00:39:54,850 --> 00:39:57,811
You will fight again
when you are able.
551
00:39:57,978 --> 00:40:00,146
Yes, Doctore.
552
00:40:06,946 --> 00:40:10,949
You will face Tasgetius and Synetos
in the match before the primus.
553
00:40:13,244 --> 00:40:15,120
Our days have been filled.
554
00:40:15,287 --> 00:40:18,957
Show all of Capua why you are
considered such a prize.
555
00:40:19,125 --> 00:40:22,127
Fight, and honor
the House of Batiatus.
556
00:40:22,294 --> 00:40:24,504
There are many things
l would die for--
557
00:40:24,672 --> 00:40:27,882
many things
l deserve to die for--
558
00:40:28,050 --> 00:40:31,594
yet this house
is no longer among them.
559
00:40:31,762 --> 00:40:34,097
Then fight for her.
560
00:40:35,683 --> 00:40:38,726
Every life you take,
the blood you shed,
561
00:40:38,894 --> 00:40:41,521
she will see it
from the afterlife.
562
00:40:46,193 --> 00:40:48,403
Then l shall fill her eyes.
563
00:40:52,366 --> 00:40:53,950
Crixus!
564
00:40:54,118 --> 00:40:55,618
You are first.
565
00:40:55,786 --> 00:40:57,412
Ready.
566
00:41:07,965 --> 00:41:10,175
( horns playing )
567
00:41:12,261 --> 00:41:14,429
The sands have been moistened
568
00:41:14,597 --> 00:41:17,223
with our first offerings of blood.
569
00:41:17,391 --> 00:41:20,894
But more is demanded
on such a day.
570
00:41:21,061 --> 00:41:23,938
- And you shall have it!
- ( cheering )
571
00:41:26,358 --> 00:41:28,985
The Houses of Solonius and Batiatus
572
00:41:29,153 --> 00:41:32,447
will battle each other
in deadly contest.
573
00:41:32,615 --> 00:41:34,824
No mercy shown.
574
00:41:34,992 --> 00:41:37,035
No quarter given.
575
00:41:37,203 --> 00:41:41,998
The victors all to face each
in the primus!
576
00:41:42,166 --> 00:41:44,584
( roaring )
577
00:41:48,339 --> 00:41:51,966
You will school that little shit
in the ways of a true lanista.
578
00:41:52,134 --> 00:41:54,219
A lesson to be remembered.
579
00:41:54,386 --> 00:41:56,679
lt shall be a spectacle
580
00:41:56,847 --> 00:42:00,767
the likes of which the gods themselves
have never witnessed!
581
00:42:00,935 --> 00:42:02,769
Glory to Capua!
582
00:42:02,937 --> 00:42:04,854
Glory to Rome!
583
00:42:05,022 --> 00:42:07,440
( roaring )
584
00:42:12,821 --> 00:42:15,114
( screaming )
585
00:42:29,171 --> 00:42:30,171
Yes!
586
00:42:40,683 --> 00:42:41,933
Nice.
587
00:43:27,980 --> 00:43:29,480
Yes.
588
00:44:17,780 --> 00:44:19,405
Yes!
589
00:44:19,573 --> 00:44:23,326
Once more Gannicus proves himself
a god of the arena!
590
00:44:23,494 --> 00:44:27,288
Ah, were that Tullius here
to witness such a triumph!
591
00:44:28,666 --> 00:44:31,501
Yet l fear the numbers stand
against you in the primus.
592
00:44:31,669 --> 00:44:34,003
Solonius still holds
twice your men.
593
00:44:34,171 --> 00:44:36,381
Eh. Numbers are meaningless.
594
00:44:36,548 --> 00:44:39,300
A lesson good Solonius
is about to discover.
595
00:44:39,468 --> 00:44:40,551
Ha!
596
00:44:45,849 --> 00:44:49,143
( crowd chanting )
We want more, we want more!
597
00:44:52,147 --> 00:44:55,066
Magistrate:
...fast we see approaching night.
598
00:44:55,234 --> 00:44:57,694
You shall stand above all others,
599
00:44:57,861 --> 00:45:01,698
eclipsed only
by the gods themselves...
600
00:45:01,865 --> 00:45:04,784
So at last we meet upon the sand.
601
00:45:04,952 --> 00:45:07,245
Two among many.
602
00:45:07,413 --> 00:45:09,330
l give no shit about other men.
603
00:45:09,498 --> 00:45:11,833
l shall prove myself against you
in proper contest.
604
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,502
We face Solonius's men,
not each other.
605
00:45:14,670 --> 00:45:16,713
Crixus:
Only until they have fallen.
606
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,674
Then we shall stand alone,
absent thought of brotherhood.
607
00:45:19,842 --> 00:45:22,427
Attend.
608
00:45:22,594 --> 00:45:24,345
The dominus would have words.
609
00:45:29,518 --> 00:45:31,811
Everything we have dreamed of,
610
00:45:31,979 --> 00:45:34,480
suffered and died for,
611
00:45:34,648 --> 00:45:38,818
the worth of it all turns
upon this single moment.
612
00:45:38,986 --> 00:45:42,530
You face the House of Solonius
and his ill-gotten men.
613
00:45:42,698 --> 00:45:45,366
You stand outnumbered.
614
00:45:45,534 --> 00:45:50,079
But not outmatched.
Only one man will claim victory this day
615
00:45:50,247 --> 00:45:52,874
and earn the title
the Champion of Capua.
616
00:45:53,041 --> 00:45:57,837
And by the gods that man will be
from the fucking House of Batiatus!
617
00:46:23,197 --> 00:46:25,198
( stomping )
618
00:46:36,293 --> 00:46:39,295
Gladiators, form!
619
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:13,871
( horns sound )
620
00:47:30,597 --> 00:47:33,266
- ( Gannicus laughs )
- ( Crixus roars )
621
00:47:56,164 --> 00:47:59,041
Many have fought this day.
622
00:47:59,209 --> 00:48:01,252
Many have died,
623
00:48:01,420 --> 00:48:03,546
their blood staining the sands.
624
00:48:03,714 --> 00:48:08,551
Yet this arena towers
above all others in the Republic.
625
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,345
lt is a vast beast,
626
00:48:11,513 --> 00:48:13,973
- and it yet hungers!
- ( cheering )
627
00:48:16,018 --> 00:48:18,519
Two great houses face each other.
628
00:48:18,687 --> 00:48:22,732
Yet every man must ultimately
stand for himself
629
00:48:22,900 --> 00:48:25,443
and himself alone.
630
00:48:37,623 --> 00:48:40,583
- What are they doing?
- lt matters not.
631
00:48:44,796 --> 00:48:47,632
Magistrate:
Fire burns within their breasts.
632
00:48:47,799 --> 00:48:51,802
And it is fire that shall bind them
in final contest!
633
00:49:06,652 --> 00:49:08,444
Fall to the sands beyond the flames
634
00:49:08,612 --> 00:49:11,447
and find yourself removed
from the primus.
635
00:49:11,615 --> 00:49:13,783
Fall within them
636
00:49:13,951 --> 00:49:16,786
and be removed from this world.
637
00:49:16,954 --> 00:49:19,372
Take position.
638
00:49:41,144 --> 00:49:44,563
Do not die before we meet.
639
00:49:47,734 --> 00:49:51,821
Magistrate: Split heaven
with the sound of your fury!
640
00:49:53,657 --> 00:49:54,991
( growls )
641
00:49:59,121 --> 00:50:00,287
Begin!
642
00:50:38,702 --> 00:50:40,578
- First blood to Solonius!
- Yes.
643
00:50:55,677 --> 00:50:56,886
Yes.
644
00:51:41,890 --> 00:51:43,974
- Yes!
- ( roars )
645
00:52:02,953 --> 00:52:04,120
Yes!
646
00:52:04,287 --> 00:52:07,414
lt is a pity you did not land
more men in the primus, Solonius.
647
00:52:07,582 --> 00:52:10,126
l fear you may be
eliminated prematurely.
648
00:52:21,012 --> 00:52:23,097
Dagan, you crazy fuck!
649
00:52:27,060 --> 00:52:29,311
Batiatus's men
think so little of his house
650
00:52:29,479 --> 00:52:31,689
they seek to kill each other?
651
00:52:59,134 --> 00:53:01,969
Who stands cunt now?
652
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:24,074
( shrieking )
653
00:53:47,641 --> 00:53:49,892
Capua!
654
00:53:51,353 --> 00:53:53,187
- Fuck!
- ( chuckles )
655
00:54:20,006 --> 00:54:21,882
Let us press advantage, brother!
656
00:54:22,050 --> 00:54:24,260
Kill Gannicus,
657
00:54:24,427 --> 00:54:27,221
and decide who is
champion between us, huh?
658
00:54:35,355 --> 00:54:38,440
Your men again set upon each other
before common foe is defeated.
659
00:54:38,608 --> 00:54:41,318
To be expected when animals
are not properly trained.
660
00:54:43,530 --> 00:54:45,739
- Gannicus is mine.
- ( screams )
661
00:55:19,858 --> 00:55:21,608
lt appears odds have shifted.
662
00:55:44,090 --> 00:55:45,799
The odds return to balance.
663
00:56:44,818 --> 00:56:46,068
( roars )
664
00:56:48,488 --> 00:56:49,863
Yes yes.
665
00:57:50,633 --> 00:57:53,177
( crowd cheering )
666
00:57:55,513 --> 00:57:58,140
Yes!
667
00:58:11,154 --> 00:58:13,530
( roars )
668
00:58:17,368 --> 00:58:22,122
Yes! The House of Batiatus
stands fucking triumphant!
669
00:58:23,208 --> 00:58:25,167
Whoa! Apologies.
670
00:58:25,335 --> 00:58:28,545
None required.
A most impressive showing.
671
00:58:28,713 --> 00:58:30,422
l do but honor this city
672
00:58:30,590 --> 00:58:32,925
and my champion
continues to do the same.
673
00:58:33,092 --> 00:58:36,094
l have mind towards your man
for my own games.
674
00:58:36,262 --> 00:58:39,640
As do l. Listen to how
he ignites the crowd.
675
00:58:43,061 --> 00:58:46,021
Gannicus! Gannicus!
Gannicus!
676
00:58:46,189 --> 00:58:49,816
( roars )
677
00:58:49,984 --> 00:58:52,027
Gannicus!
Gannicus! Gannicus!
678
00:58:52,195 --> 00:58:56,156
Would they not forever remember
this day and the men responsible for it
679
00:58:56,324 --> 00:58:58,450
if Gannicus were granted freedom?
680
00:58:59,661 --> 00:59:01,411
Freedom?
681
00:59:01,579 --> 00:59:03,997
l would have granted the same
in deference to the crowd
682
00:59:04,165 --> 00:59:06,750
- had my man survived.
- An excellent suggestion.
683
00:59:06,918 --> 00:59:09,628
You can always train another gladiator.
684
00:59:09,796 --> 00:59:14,091
Yet to conclude the opening
ceremonies with such a blessing...
685
00:59:14,259 --> 00:59:17,469
As l said, l but honor this city.
686
00:59:27,272 --> 00:59:30,816
( laughs )
687
00:59:30,984 --> 00:59:34,236
Gannicus has proven himself
to the city of Capua.
688
00:59:35,488 --> 00:59:37,781
Let him be rewarded...
689
00:59:37,949 --> 00:59:39,783
with freedom.
690
00:59:39,951 --> 00:59:41,827
( crowd cheering )
691
00:59:47,125 --> 00:59:50,502
Gannicus! Gannicus!
Gannicus!
692
00:59:50,670 --> 00:59:53,630
Gannicus!
Gannicus! Gannicus!
693
00:59:53,798 --> 00:59:56,883
Gannicus! Gannicus!
Gannicus!
694
00:59:57,051 --> 01:00:00,304
Gannicus!
Gannicus! Gannicus!
695
01:00:00,471 --> 01:00:02,848
Gannicus! Gannicus!
Gannicus!
696
01:00:03,016 --> 01:00:06,184
Gannicus!
Gannicus! Gannicus!
697
01:00:06,352 --> 01:00:09,396
Gannicus! Gannicus!
Gannicus!
698
01:00:09,564 --> 01:00:12,399
Gannicus!
Gannicus! Gannicus!
699
01:00:12,567 --> 01:00:15,861
Gannicus! Gannicus!
( cheering )
700
01:00:18,156 --> 01:00:21,158
Lucretia: After all we have suffered,
Gannicus is still lost to us.
701
01:00:21,326 --> 01:00:23,410
l offered the man coin,
702
01:00:23,578 --> 01:00:26,955
freedom to come and go as he pleases,
if he would yet fight for our house.
703
01:00:28,875 --> 01:00:31,668
Memories haunt the man
704
01:00:31,836 --> 01:00:33,920
and drive him from our walls.
705
01:00:35,757 --> 01:00:38,675
Crixus afforded himself
well in the games.
706
01:00:38,843 --> 01:00:41,720
Let us turn our hope towards him,
707
01:00:41,888 --> 01:00:44,973
that he may bring us honor
708
01:00:45,141 --> 01:00:47,392
and good fortune.
709
01:00:51,272 --> 01:00:52,814
Yes.
710
01:00:52,982 --> 01:00:55,525
Let us place our stock in the Gaul
711
01:00:55,693 --> 01:00:58,362
and see what ends he may service.
712
01:00:58,529 --> 01:01:00,614
l'm real proud of you, brother.
713
01:01:03,493 --> 01:01:06,244
l shall join you one day,
714
01:01:06,412 --> 01:01:08,580
you mad fuck.
715
01:01:08,748 --> 01:01:10,290
Of that there is no doubt.
716
01:01:24,013 --> 01:01:26,431
We have not yet had proper contest.
717
01:01:26,599 --> 01:01:30,143
Win your own freedom
and seek me out.
718
01:01:36,734 --> 01:01:38,985
Crixus.
719
01:01:40,655 --> 01:01:43,740
l was given this when l became
champion of this house.
720
01:01:51,165 --> 01:01:53,542
Wear it with more honor than l have.
721
01:01:59,507 --> 01:02:01,550
( winces )
722
01:02:24,449 --> 01:02:26,742
You have earned the rudis--
723
01:02:26,909 --> 01:02:30,120
proof you no longer stand a slave.
724
01:02:38,921 --> 01:02:41,381
A lifetime of blood.
725
01:02:41,549 --> 01:02:43,216
And victory.
726
01:02:43,384 --> 01:02:46,803
lt lifts troubled heart to see
my brother gain his freedom.
727
01:02:46,971 --> 01:02:49,431
Melitta would have been proud.
728
01:02:54,979 --> 01:02:56,688
Oenomaus--
729
01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:06,323
she loved you
730
01:03:06,491 --> 01:03:08,867
above all others.
731
01:03:12,580 --> 01:03:14,456
The thought shall keep me warm
732
01:03:14,624 --> 01:03:16,625
till l join her in the afterlife.
733
01:03:16,793 --> 01:03:19,503
And l shall meet you both there.
734
01:04:27,238 --> 01:04:29,406
Quintus: Doctore.
735
01:04:30,575 --> 01:04:32,158
Begin the day's training.
736
01:04:42,712 --> 01:04:44,754
Oenomaus:
First position!
737
01:04:53,347 --> 01:04:56,182
l would not hear the name Gannicus
spoken within these walls.
738
01:04:56,350 --> 01:04:59,227
Or that of Tullius
or his cock-eating apprentice.
739
01:04:59,395 --> 01:05:02,647
Such things are of the past.
740
01:05:04,775 --> 01:05:07,736
Let us look towards a brighter future.
741
01:05:07,904 --> 01:05:11,031
My eyes are firmly fixed.
742
01:05:16,746 --> 01:05:19,873
We will see this house elevated...
743
01:05:20,041 --> 01:05:25,170
beyond my father, beyond Solonius,
beyond the fucking gods themselves.
744
01:05:25,338 --> 01:05:28,715
We will leave our mark
upon this city.
745
01:05:28,883 --> 01:05:31,301
And one day
746
01:05:31,469 --> 01:05:34,930
we will see proper reward
for all we have done.
747
01:05:38,225 --> 01:05:41,061
Spartacus: l have done this thing
because it is just.
748
01:05:42,271 --> 01:05:44,856
Blood demands blood.
749
01:05:45,024 --> 01:05:47,817
We have lived and lost
750
01:05:47,985 --> 01:05:51,321
at the whims of our masters
for too long.
751
01:05:51,489 --> 01:05:54,407
l would not have it so.
752
01:05:56,494 --> 01:06:00,205
Your lives are your own.
Forge your own path...
753
01:06:00,373 --> 01:06:02,791
orjoin with us
754
01:06:02,959 --> 01:06:06,711
and together we shall see
Rome tremble!
755
01:06:06,879 --> 01:06:08,922
( cheering, shouting )
756
01:06:14,387 --> 01:06:16,930
( theme music playing )
