1
00:00:17,429 --> 00:00:20,737
[Octavia]
In return for my son's life,

2
00:00:20,737 --> 00:00:26,482
I want you to take
the life of one of Livia's.

3
00:00:26,482 --> 00:00:28,832
Tiberius and I have sworn
to restore the Republic.

4
00:00:28,832 --> 00:00:31,574
If he ever sees you
as a threat or problem,

5
00:00:31,574 --> 00:00:32,705
you'll be dead.

6
00:00:32,705 --> 00:00:34,968
I want you to take Germany.

7
00:00:34,968 --> 00:00:36,666
[Drusus] <i>This is
a fucking enormous honor!</i>

8
00:00:36,666 --> 00:00:38,276
It's a ten-year suicide note
is what it is.

9
00:00:38,276 --> 00:00:40,539
And I'd be asking yourself
why it's got your name on it.

10
00:00:40,539 --> 00:00:42,106
[Gaius] <i>I need
to decipher his letters.</i>

11
00:00:42,106 --> 00:00:43,803
I never forget my friends.

12
00:00:43,803 --> 00:00:46,719
[Drusus] <i>Tiberius,
I know you won't agree with me,</i>

13
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:49,679
<i>but now is the time to act.</i>

14
00:00:49,679 --> 00:00:53,074
<i>Don't tell Mother or Piso.</i>

15
00:00:53,074 --> 00:00:55,163
We have to get him
recalled from Germany.

16
00:00:55,163 --> 00:00:57,904
There's a darkness there.
It's consuming him.

17
00:00:57,904 --> 00:01:01,082
Without your marriage to me,
Iullus, you're nothing.

18
00:01:01,082 --> 00:01:02,518
[Iullus] <i>Oh, I know
you're fucking Gallus.</i>

19
00:01:02,518 --> 00:01:04,955
If he gets you pregnant,
you're on your own.

20
00:01:04,955 --> 00:01:07,653
It wasn't Vilbia
Julia was sleeping with.

21
00:01:07,653 --> 00:01:08,872
[man] <i>Julia?</i>

22
00:01:08,872 --> 00:01:10,047
[Scribonia] Uh, no.

23
00:01:10,047 --> 00:01:11,222
I'm not doing this
without a drink.

24
00:01:11,222 --> 00:01:13,659
You don't do anything
without a drink.

25
00:01:13,659 --> 00:01:14,660
We can't stay here.
We'll drown.

26
00:01:14,660 --> 00:01:16,532
We'll never escape.

27
00:01:16,532 --> 00:01:18,403
[thunderclap]

28
00:01:33,723 --> 00:01:36,378
[soldier shouting] <i>Left!</i>

29
00:01:48,781 --> 00:01:50,566
Livilla!

30
00:01:50,566 --> 00:01:52,307
So, Vistilius let it slip

31
00:01:52,307 --> 00:01:54,570
that you've refused
the recall to Rome.

32
00:01:54,570 --> 00:01:56,572
Not refused, exactly.

33
00:01:56,572 --> 00:01:57,442
More, sort of, postponed.

34
00:01:57,442 --> 00:02:00,010
[groans]

35
00:02:02,839 --> 00:02:04,275
I just need some more time here

36
00:02:04,275 --> 00:02:07,191
to agree the treaty
with the Cherusci.

37
00:02:07,191 --> 00:02:08,584
Drusus.

38
00:02:08,584 --> 00:02:10,760
You can't be serious.

39
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,762
I explained it all nicely.

40
00:02:12,762 --> 00:02:14,503
To Caesar Augustus?
Are you mad?

41
00:02:16,853 --> 00:02:17,375
Let me show you something.

42
00:02:19,769 --> 00:02:21,640
I'm on the verge here.

43
00:02:21,640 --> 00:02:23,599
The verge of something
fucking incredible,

44
00:02:23,599 --> 00:02:25,992
that nobody has ever done.

45
00:02:25,992 --> 00:02:28,169
A whole new Roman province.

46
00:02:28,169 --> 00:02:31,998
From the Rhine
to the fucking Elbe.

47
00:02:31,998 --> 00:02:34,610
Does Livia know about this?

48
00:02:34,610 --> 00:02:36,742
I have not bled my army to death

49
00:02:36,742 --> 00:02:38,570
in these fucking forests
for the last four years

50
00:02:38,570 --> 00:02:41,007
so some jealous old man
can steal my honor

51
00:02:41,007 --> 00:02:45,534
and hand over my victory
to some undeserving fuck!

52
00:02:45,534 --> 00:02:46,404
Just saying.

53
00:02:48,798 --> 00:02:51,627
My beautiful love,

54
00:02:51,627 --> 00:02:52,976
this is treason.

55
00:02:57,676 --> 00:02:59,417
[horse nickers]

56
00:03:02,768 --> 00:03:06,990
[baby crying in distance]

57
00:03:06,990 --> 00:03:08,034
[Livia] What the fuck?

58
00:03:08,034 --> 00:03:10,907
[baby continues crying]

59
00:03:14,693 --> 00:03:18,828
- Julia? Tiberius?
- [children laughing]

60
00:03:18,828 --> 00:03:20,786
- Children!
- [water splashing]

61
00:03:20,786 --> 00:03:22,179
Lucius, Julilla,
what are you doing up?

62
00:03:22,179 --> 00:03:23,441
Get to bed!

63
00:03:25,617 --> 00:03:27,967
[baby crying]

64
00:03:27,967 --> 00:03:30,318
Tiberillus.

65
00:03:30,318 --> 00:03:34,017
Hey!

66
00:03:34,017 --> 00:03:35,018
Livia, what are you doing here?

67
00:03:35,018 --> 00:03:37,281
This is your baby.

68
00:03:37,281 --> 00:03:39,240
If you say so.
They all look the same to me.

69
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,024
This house is a toilet.
Your children are wild.

70
00:03:41,024 --> 00:03:42,895
You can talk, Mother.

71
00:03:42,895 --> 00:03:44,593
You really set an example
for everyone there.

72
00:03:44,593 --> 00:03:46,856
[sighs]

73
00:03:48,901 --> 00:03:51,295
Mother, we weren't
expecting you back just yet.

74
00:03:51,295 --> 00:03:53,645
What is Vipsania doing here?

75
00:03:55,299 --> 00:03:57,780
You shame your family.

76
00:03:57,780 --> 00:03:58,694
- I try.
- [Gaius] Livia.

77
00:03:58,694 --> 00:04:00,957
Shit.

78
00:04:00,957 --> 00:04:06,528
Livia, they told me
you were here.

79
00:04:06,528 --> 00:04:07,703
Do you think Tiberillus
is starting to look

80
00:04:07,703 --> 00:04:09,270
a bit more like me?

81
00:04:09,270 --> 00:04:12,055
I can see
a bit of Julia in there,

82
00:04:12,055 --> 00:04:14,100
not much Tiberius.

83
00:04:14,100 --> 00:04:18,366
Do you think Tiberius
would mind if I adopted him?

84
00:04:18,366 --> 00:04:20,281
But you already
have Gaius and Lucius.

85
00:04:20,281 --> 00:04:22,935
But he's our only
proper grandson,

86
00:04:22,935 --> 00:04:25,198
the only one
with your blood and mine.

87
00:04:25,198 --> 00:04:27,288
[woman] <i>Dominus.</i>

88
00:04:27,288 --> 00:04:29,115
Is that why you dragged me
back from the country?

89
00:04:29,115 --> 00:04:31,161
No.

90
00:04:33,381 --> 00:04:36,862
We need to talk.

91
00:04:36,862 --> 00:04:39,517
[theme music playing]

92
00:05:35,878 --> 00:05:37,140
You're back again?

93
00:05:37,140 --> 00:05:39,795
You're going to Germany. Now.

94
00:05:39,795 --> 00:05:40,970
What?

95
00:05:40,970 --> 00:05:42,058
You have to bring
Drusus back.

96
00:05:44,365 --> 00:05:45,757
He refused the recall?

97
00:05:45,757 --> 00:05:47,890
I don't care how you do it.

98
00:05:47,890 --> 00:05:50,414
Of course.

99
00:05:50,414 --> 00:05:52,242
Does Stepfather know?

100
00:05:52,242 --> 00:05:55,419
He found out days ago.

101
00:05:55,419 --> 00:05:58,161
It's all right for now,
I mean he's, uh,

102
00:05:58,161 --> 00:05:59,989
he's been good about it.

103
00:05:59,989 --> 00:06:02,121
Drusus is Drusus.

104
00:06:02,121 --> 00:06:03,993
It's a direct challenge
to his authority.

105
00:06:03,993 --> 00:06:06,822
Not if it stays in the family.

106
00:06:06,822 --> 00:06:08,954
If you get Drusus back,
I can fix it.

107
00:06:08,954 --> 00:06:10,608
But he has to come back.

108
00:06:12,828 --> 00:06:16,832
[horse whinnying]

109
00:06:16,832 --> 00:06:19,312
Make sure
you don't die, Father.

110
00:06:19,312 --> 00:06:20,836
I'll look after everything
whilst you're gone.

111
00:06:20,836 --> 00:06:24,274
I know you will.

112
00:06:24,274 --> 00:06:27,277
Castor, Uncle Drusus
has been naughty,

113
00:06:27,277 --> 00:06:28,844
and I need to go
and fetch him.

114
00:06:28,844 --> 00:06:30,846
You stay with your mother
until I get back.

115
00:06:30,846 --> 00:06:32,674
Come along there, Castor.

116
00:06:35,459 --> 00:06:40,246
If anything happens to Drusus
because of this...

117
00:06:40,246 --> 00:06:43,424
I will never forgive you.

118
00:06:43,424 --> 00:06:45,164
It's because of you
he stayed there,

119
00:06:45,164 --> 00:06:47,210
on the frontline,
year after year.

120
00:06:47,210 --> 00:06:49,908
I begged you to bring him home.

121
00:06:49,908 --> 00:06:51,083
So did Antonina.

122
00:06:51,083 --> 00:06:53,825
And you knew
it was destroying him,

123
00:06:53,825 --> 00:06:57,176
but you didn't care,
because you wanted him to win.

124
00:06:57,176 --> 00:06:58,090
He wanted it, too.

125
00:06:58,090 --> 00:07:01,224
He's a child.

126
00:07:01,224 --> 00:07:02,921
He needed a mother.

127
00:07:12,104 --> 00:07:14,498
Bring him home, Tycho.

128
00:07:14,498 --> 00:07:16,892
Ten days there.

129
00:07:16,892 --> 00:07:18,415
Ten days back.

130
00:07:24,029 --> 00:07:26,249
I sent Tiberius.

131
00:07:26,249 --> 00:07:29,470
He'll be back in three weeks
with Drusus.

132
00:07:29,470 --> 00:07:31,646
Speaking of Tiberius,

133
00:07:31,646 --> 00:07:33,909
Gallus came to see me
while you were away.

134
00:07:33,909 --> 00:07:37,086
He said he was sure Tiberius

135
00:07:37,086 --> 00:07:40,829
had been seeing Vipsania
behind his back.

136
00:07:40,829 --> 00:07:42,961
Naturally I told him
he must be mistaken,

137
00:07:42,961 --> 00:07:45,921
because Tiberius

138
00:07:45,921 --> 00:07:49,098
is now married
to my daughter, Julia,

139
00:07:49,098 --> 00:07:52,928
and nobody would shame
my family like that,

140
00:07:52,928 --> 00:07:56,366
least of all one of your sons.

141
00:07:56,366 --> 00:07:59,587
Then the very next day

142
00:07:59,587 --> 00:08:04,374
I get that letter from Drusus,

143
00:08:04,374 --> 00:08:06,594
refusing my direct orders.

144
00:08:06,594 --> 00:08:08,944
I don't believe
in this treaty of his.

145
00:08:08,944 --> 00:08:11,947
He should be in Rome.

146
00:08:11,947 --> 00:08:13,905
He just wants to please you.

147
00:08:13,905 --> 00:08:16,212
He is in charge of an army!

148
00:08:16,212 --> 00:08:18,606
An army he could lead
against me.

149
00:08:18,606 --> 00:08:20,869
I need to know I can trust him.

150
00:08:20,869 --> 00:08:23,045
He's Drusus.

151
00:08:23,045 --> 00:08:23,872
That's all
anyone needs to know.

152
00:08:23,872 --> 00:08:26,962
[scoffs]

153
00:08:26,962 --> 00:08:29,051
Get the boys in line, Livia,

154
00:08:29,051 --> 00:08:30,748
or I will.

155
00:08:37,146 --> 00:08:39,931
Don't worry.

156
00:08:43,413 --> 00:08:48,592
Has Piso ever talked to you
about restoring the Republic?

157
00:08:48,592 --> 00:08:50,376
[scoffs]

158
00:08:50,376 --> 00:08:54,424
Piso? He's 150. What a joke.

159
00:08:56,208 --> 00:08:58,080
[scoffs]

160
00:09:00,473 --> 00:09:02,954
Fuck!

161
00:09:02,954 --> 00:09:09,570
[breathing deeply]

162
00:09:09,570 --> 00:09:12,964
Oh, fuck, fuck, fuck!

163
00:09:12,964 --> 00:09:16,141
Livia, I heard you were back.

164
00:09:16,141 --> 00:09:18,187
We need to talk.

165
00:09:18,187 --> 00:09:19,101
Not a good time.

166
00:09:19,101 --> 00:09:21,103
Ah, not for me either.

167
00:09:21,103 --> 00:09:25,194
I'm pregnant.

168
00:09:25,194 --> 00:09:28,284
What?

169
00:09:28,284 --> 00:09:31,504
Who's the father?

170
00:09:31,504 --> 00:09:33,158
Well, as you imply,
it's obviously not Iullus.

171
00:09:33,158 --> 00:09:35,683
We haven't been
in the same bedroom for years.

172
00:09:35,683 --> 00:09:38,468
Fortunately, there's
a simple solution.

173
00:09:38,468 --> 00:09:42,777
You leave Rome,

174
00:09:42,777 --> 00:09:44,430
you give birth in the country,
the child goes to a slave.

175
00:09:44,430 --> 00:09:46,302
[scoffs] Don't be absurd, Livia.

176
00:09:46,302 --> 00:09:48,434
I'm not spending
the fucking winter

177
00:09:48,434 --> 00:09:50,436
hiding in some dreary house
in the middle of nowhere.

178
00:09:50,436 --> 00:09:52,569
I'm very attached to the father,

179
00:09:52,569 --> 00:09:56,094
and I want to keep his child.

180
00:09:56,094 --> 00:09:58,488

00:20:16,279 --> 00:20:18,847
[soldier]
Tiberius Claudius Nero!

360
00:20:18,847 --> 00:20:20,152
Alert the General!

361
00:20:20,152 --> 00:20:21,893
[Vistilius] Tiberius!

362
00:20:21,893 --> 00:20:23,678
How did you get here so fast?

363
00:20:23,678 --> 00:20:27,247
[Tiberius] Where is he?

364
00:20:27,247 --> 00:20:29,988
[thunderclaps]

365
00:20:39,041 --> 00:20:41,261
The wound's gone bad.

366
00:20:41,261 --> 00:20:42,871
I've seen it a thousand times.

367
00:20:42,871 --> 00:20:47,658
There's nothing to be done.

368
00:20:47,658 --> 00:20:49,965
I'm afraid you're just in time.

369
00:20:52,707 --> 00:20:54,839
And just so you know...

370
00:20:54,839 --> 00:20:58,016
he can't see.

371
00:20:58,016 --> 00:21:02,151
[thunder crashing]

372
00:21:02,151 --> 00:21:03,718
[Drusus] Who's that?

373
00:21:03,718 --> 00:21:04,893
Antonina?

374
00:21:04,893 --> 00:21:07,852
It's me, Drusus.

375
00:21:07,852 --> 00:21:09,593
And your brother.

376
00:21:09,593 --> 00:21:11,508
Tiberius?

377
00:21:15,947 --> 00:21:18,210
[chuckles] Brilliant.

378
00:21:18,210 --> 00:21:20,256
Just in time for
the squalid and violent death

379
00:21:20,256 --> 00:21:23,041
you always
so cheerfully foretold.

380
00:21:23,041 --> 00:21:26,784
You're not going to die.

381
00:21:26,784 --> 00:21:27,872
Yes, I am.

382
00:21:27,872 --> 00:21:29,874
No, you're not.

383
00:21:29,874 --> 00:21:32,747
- [rain pattering]
- [thunder rumbles]

384
00:21:32,747 --> 00:21:34,096
Tycho.

385
00:21:34,096 --> 00:21:35,750
I'm glad you came.

386
00:21:35,750 --> 00:21:40,145
Tiberius isn't going
to be of much use.

387
00:21:40,145 --> 00:21:42,844
[thunder continues rumbling]

388
00:21:49,546 --> 00:21:54,508
I suppose Mother sent you up
to drag me home.

389
00:21:54,508 --> 00:21:58,163
She's going to be
furious about this.

390
00:21:58,163 --> 00:22:01,558
I'm glad I'll be dead.

391
00:22:04,866 --> 00:22:07,434
What happened?

392
00:22:07,434 --> 00:22:10,915
A German warband,
random ambush.

393
00:22:10,915 --> 00:22:12,482
They got a little girl
to hold them up

394
00:22:12,482 --> 00:22:14,179
and then attacked them
from the sides.

395
00:22:14,179 --> 00:22:15,964
He got a spear through the leg.

396
00:22:15,964 --> 00:22:18,706
A German guide carried him home
when night fell.

397
00:22:18,706 --> 00:22:21,012
The others were killed.

398
00:22:21,012 --> 00:22:25,582
We were coming home, Tycho.
I was all packed and ready.

399
00:22:28,193 --> 00:22:29,847
[Antonina sobs]

400
00:22:38,290 --> 00:22:42,077
[indistinct conversations]

401
00:22:42,077 --> 00:22:43,948
[gasping]

402
00:22:43,948 --> 00:22:46,124
[groaning]

403
00:22:46,124 --> 00:22:47,430
[groans loudly]

404
00:22:47,430 --> 00:22:49,084
Hey, hey.

405
00:22:54,959 --> 00:22:56,483
[groans]

406
00:22:56,483 --> 00:22:59,399
[panting]

407
00:23:12,237 --> 00:23:14,588
It's hard for you, I know.

408
00:23:17,025 --> 00:23:19,897
But it's only death.

409
00:23:19,897 --> 00:23:25,033
In the end,
we all go over the river.

410
00:23:25,033 --> 00:23:29,385
I'm looking forward
to meeting Grandfather

411
00:23:29,385 --> 00:23:30,995
and seeing Antigone again...

412
00:23:30,995 --> 00:23:35,826
and that cunt Marcellus.

413
00:23:35,826 --> 00:23:39,177
He'll still be seething
Mother poisoned him.

414
00:23:39,177 --> 00:23:40,788
Yes.

415
00:23:45,053 --> 00:23:48,056
Don't be sad.

416
00:23:48,056 --> 00:23:49,492
I did everything I wanted.

417
00:23:49,492 --> 00:23:52,930
I drank, I...

418
00:23:52,930 --> 00:23:55,063
I gambled, I fornicated,

419
00:23:55,063 --> 00:23:58,414
and I married,

420
00:23:58,414 --> 00:24:02,940
and I loved...

421
00:24:02,940 --> 00:24:04,681
and I went to war.

422
00:24:09,077 --> 00:24:11,601
I gave my wife children and...

423
00:24:11,601 --> 00:24:14,038
brought no dishonor
on my family,

424
00:24:14,038 --> 00:24:17,172
which not many people
would have bet on.

425
00:24:17,172 --> 00:24:18,434
[chuckles] No.

426
00:24:18,434 --> 00:24:20,697
[chuckles]

427
00:24:28,705 --> 00:24:33,144
I would've liked
to see the kids grow up...

428
00:24:33,144 --> 00:24:35,407
and take Livilla to her wedding.

429
00:24:39,542 --> 00:24:41,718
Will you do that for me?

430
00:24:45,113 --> 00:24:46,375
Of course.

431
00:24:52,163 --> 00:24:53,904
And then you can finish
what we started.

432
00:24:58,953 --> 00:25:00,432
No.

433
00:25:07,178 --> 00:25:08,571
That's over.

434
00:25:11,182 --> 00:25:14,142
Without you,

435
00:25:14,142 --> 00:25:15,143
the Republic--

436
00:25:15,143 --> 00:25:16,971
No.

437
00:25:16,971 --> 00:25:18,929
It isn't.

438
00:25:18,929 --> 00:25:22,150
- Yes, it is.
- No, it isn't.

439
00:25:22,150 --> 00:25:26,067
- Yes, it is.
- Swear to me.

440
00:25:27,372 --> 00:25:29,984
Swear you'll do it.

441
00:25:29,984 --> 00:25:33,683
For me.

442
00:25:33,683 --> 00:25:35,119
Mother will
make the arrangements.

443
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:39,559
All you have to do
is turn up and smile.

444
00:25:43,432 --> 00:25:45,608
Please.

445
00:26:02,538 --> 00:26:03,408
I swear.

446
00:26:20,730 --> 00:26:21,949
[groans]

447
00:26:54,285 --> 00:26:55,547
I want you to end it.

448
00:27:01,292 --> 00:27:03,817
We both know
where a wound like this goes.

449
00:27:06,515 --> 00:27:08,735
You can't ask that of me.

450
00:27:08,735 --> 00:27:11,520
Yes, I can.

451
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,262
No, you can't.

452
00:27:14,262 --> 00:27:16,046
Yes, I can.

453
00:27:26,143 --> 00:27:29,407
Tycho will help you.

454
00:27:32,715 --> 00:27:36,240
[indistinct conversations
in distance]

455
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,460
Sorry I'm late.

456
00:27:38,460 --> 00:27:41,158
You're always late.

457
00:27:41,158 --> 00:27:48,209
You never answered my question,
about adopting Tiberillus.

458
00:27:48,209 --> 00:27:50,559
That's a great idea, thank you.

459
00:27:52,169 --> 00:27:55,477
I think about
the future a lot now.

460
00:27:55,477 --> 00:27:57,435
The grandchildren,

461
00:27:57,435 --> 00:27:59,176
the Rome they'll live in.

462
00:27:59,176 --> 00:28:01,439
- Iullus tries hard.
- Mm.

463
00:28:01,439 --> 00:28:03,267
And Domitius is a good man.

464
00:28:03,267 --> 00:28:06,227
- We can trust him.
- We can.

465
00:28:06,227 --> 00:28:07,097
But I worry about Drusus.

466
00:28:09,883 --> 00:28:13,277
Yes. Well, he has
no interest in politics.

467
00:28:13,277 --> 00:28:15,149
[Gaius] Hmm.

468
00:28:15,149 --> 00:28:18,587
And Tiberius has no ambition.

469
00:28:18,587 --> 00:28:20,154
Hard to believe
they're both yours.

470
00:28:20,154 --> 00:28:20,937
I know.

471
00:28:24,288 --> 00:28:28,379
Lately, I've been really feeling
the weight of it all.

472
00:28:28,379 --> 00:28:32,601
Maybe it's just age.

473
00:28:32,601 --> 00:28:35,604
Sometimes I just think...
fuck it.

474
00:28:35,604 --> 00:28:38,650
I should just hand it all back,

475
00:28:38,650 --> 00:28:40,696
for real this time,

476
00:28:40,696 --> 00:28:43,177
restore the Republic...

477
00:28:43,177 --> 00:28:44,961
retire.

478
00:28:47,094 --> 00:28:50,967
Open that whorehouse in Pompeii
we always dreamed of.

479
00:28:53,404 --> 00:28:57,713
I could, you know.

480
00:28:57,713 --> 00:29:01,238
The Senate
would take it from me.

481
00:29:01,238 --> 00:29:01,978
It'd make your father happy.

482
00:29:09,333 --> 00:29:12,119
You want to give away
everything we've built?

483
00:29:14,295 --> 00:29:16,776
Fuck you.

484
00:29:16,776 --> 00:29:21,041
And fuck the Republic.

485
00:29:30,615 --> 00:29:33,793
If you ever
talk about this again,

486
00:29:33,793 --> 00:29:35,795
I'll divorce you.

487
00:29:51,636 --> 00:29:54,857
Get a message to Piso.

488
00:30:02,734 --> 00:30:05,694
[tense music playing,
vocalizing]

489
00:30:05,694 --> 00:30:08,175
Fuck.

490
00:30:08,175 --> 00:30:09,741
I'm still here.

491
00:30:17,314 --> 00:30:18,663
I'm ready.

492
00:30:20,709 --> 00:30:22,015
[Tiberius] Call Antonina.

493
00:30:26,323 --> 00:30:28,848
Sleep well, Drusus.

494
00:30:32,242 --> 00:30:34,070
[Drusus] Tycho?

495
00:30:39,597 --> 00:30:42,209
Take care of everyone.

496
00:30:46,735 --> 00:30:48,911
Tell Antigone I miss her.

497
00:31:24,555 --> 00:31:25,165
[Tycho] Tiberius.

[gasps]

499
00:31:48,884 --> 00:31:51,104
It's okay.

500
00:32:09,731 --> 00:32:10,950
Please.

501
00:32:13,691 --> 00:32:16,303
I welcome it.

502
00:32:38,412 --> 00:32:42,155
[gasps softly]

503
00:32:43,634 --> 00:32:45,027
Thank you.

504
00:32:50,946 --> 00:32:54,036
[whispers] Don't marry again.

505
00:32:54,036 --> 00:32:55,516
Never.

506
00:33:24,632 --> 00:33:26,416
[whispers] Mother.

507
00:33:52,486 --> 00:33:54,357
Will you write to Rome?

508
00:34:01,669 --> 00:34:02,713
We should tell the men.

509
00:34:43,885 --> 00:34:45,713
[child] Daddy.

510
00:34:56,724 --> 00:35:05,863

[door opens]

514
00:35:33,761 --> 00:35:36,546
[Antonia] Livia.
There you are, at last.

515
00:35:36,546 --> 00:35:37,939
How's it going?

516
00:35:37,939 --> 00:35:39,767
Julia's still pretty furious.

517
00:35:42,030 --> 00:35:45,947
Keep her locked up.

518
00:35:45,947 --> 00:35:47,601
I won't change my mind,
so don't start.

519
00:35:47,601 --> 00:35:49,777
I won't.

520
00:35:49,777 --> 00:35:52,214
Then why did you wanna see me?

521
00:35:52,214 --> 00:35:53,737
It's time to pay
your debts, my love.

522
00:35:56,566 --> 00:35:59,134
Wait here.

523
00:35:59,134 --> 00:36:00,179
I'm not a slave.

524
00:36:00,179 --> 00:36:02,006
[Livia] Who knew?

525
00:36:02,006 --> 00:36:04,792
Your message was, um, alarming.

526
00:36:04,792 --> 00:36:07,664
[whispering] Gaius knows
about Drusus, the Republic.

527
00:36:07,664 --> 00:36:10,667
He was testing me
last night. Me!

528
00:36:10,667 --> 00:36:12,669
If he knew,
he wouldn't be testing you out.

529
00:36:12,669 --> 00:36:14,584
But how can he know
and not know?

530
00:36:14,584 --> 00:36:16,020
[Piso sighs]

531
00:36:16,020 --> 00:36:18,980
Then who's the leak? Marcella?

532
00:36:18,980 --> 00:36:21,243
I don't know either.

533
00:36:21,243 --> 00:36:22,940
Well, we'd better
find out, Livia.

534
00:36:22,940 --> 00:36:26,248
Our lives depend on it.

535
00:36:26,248 --> 00:36:29,033
[indistinct conversations

00:36:34,213 --> 00:36:36,432
[horse whinnies]

537
00:36:45,659 --> 00:36:47,748
[Tiberius]
I wanted to thank you...

538
00:36:47,748 --> 00:36:50,011
[horse whinnies]

539
00:36:50,011 --> 00:36:52,056
...for bringing my brother back.

540
00:36:55,059 --> 00:36:58,846
I know he trusted you.

541
00:36:58,846 --> 00:37:00,761
He trusted everybody.

00:51:19,097 --> 00:51:22,274
- Revenge or power?
- I will have both!

724
00:51:31,631 --> 00:51:32,719
And Vistilius?

725
00:51:35,504 --> 00:51:38,768
I want him dead.

726
00:51:38,768 --> 00:51:40,161
And I won't wait.

727
00:51:44,731 --> 00:51:46,602
You won't have to.

728
00:51:46,602 --> 00:51:48,343
Gaius will take care of that.

729
00:52:25,728 --> 00:52:28,862
[gasps, groans]

730
00:52:28,862 --> 00:52:32,213
[screams]

731
00:52:32,213 --> 00:52:37,175
[continues screaming, groaning]

732
00:53:11,861 --> 00:53:13,907
I should have brought him home
years ago.

733
00:53:23,351 --> 00:53:25,440
I should have asked you.

734
00:53:45,286 --> 00:53:47,201
You were right,

735
00:53:47,201 --> 00:53:56,428
everything you said.

736
00:53:56,428 --> 00:54:01,215
Are you gonna put Tiberius
on the throne after Augustus?

737
00:54:01,215 --> 00:54:04,218
Yes.

738
00:54:04,218 --> 00:54:07,743
Undo everything he's done,
bury his legacy?

739
00:54:07,743 --> 00:54:17,536
I will.

740
00:54:17,536 --> 00:54:21,279
Now you're gonna have to burn
the whole fucking house down

741
00:54:21,279 --> 00:54:23,237
and everyone in it.

742
00:54:27,763 --> 00:54:29,678
[whispers] Good night, Piso.

743
00:54:36,859 --> 00:54:39,775
Good night.

744
00:54:47,827 --> 00:54:49,916
[door opens]

745
00:54:49,916 --> 00:54:54,660
Oh, Tiberius, I just wanted
to see if you're all right.

746
00:54:54,660 --> 00:54:58,620
Tiberius?

747
00:54:58,620 --> 00:54:59,839
Wait.

748
00:54:59,839 --> 00:55:05,801
Oh, it's you.

749
00:55:09,892 --> 00:55:12,591
If you see Tiberius,
send my love.

750
00:55:46,451 --> 00:55:49,062
I want to be
alone with my son.

751
00:55:51,804 --> 00:55:53,283
[nanny] <i>Dominus.</i>

752
00:55:57,244 --> 00:55:59,420
You're not my son, of course.

753
00:56:04,033 --> 00:56:07,297
But you are Tiberillus,
grandson of Augustus.

754
00:56:12,868 --> 00:56:18,439
And I know you're innocent
of all of it.

755
00:56:18,439 --> 00:56:20,920
The lies...

756
00:56:23,923 --> 00:56:25,141
...the killings...

757
00:56:28,014 --> 00:56:29,798
...the vengeance.

758
00:56:33,106 --> 00:56:35,630
Everything that made Rome great.

759
00:56:53,822 --> 00:56:55,737
But life isn't fair.

760
00:57:14,539 --> 00:57:16,584
But on the bright side,

761
00:57:16,584 --> 00:57:18,673
you'll never
have to run for Consul.

762
00:57:25,071 --> 00:57:26,638
Or worry...

763
00:57:31,207 --> 00:57:37,083
...about restoring the Republic

764
00:57:37,083 --> 00:57:38,301
of Rome.

765
00:57:38,301 --> 00:57:39,389
[blows air]

766
00:57:41,479 --> 00:57:44,307
[theme music plays]
