1
00:00:20,771 --> 00:00:21,814
Ursus!
2
00:00:22,523 --> 00:00:23,441
Ursus!
3
00:00:55,431 --> 00:00:56,474
What!
4
00:00:56,891 --> 00:00:58,058
What have you done?
5
00:00:58,142 --> 00:00:59,518
You little fuckers!
6
00:01:06,859 --> 00:01:07,902
Open up!
7
00:01:09,528 --> 00:01:11,363
Please, come on! Help!
8
00:01:11,447 --> 00:01:13,491
Don't do this today!
9
00:01:13,824 --> 00:01:16,327
Hey! Hey!
10
00:01:16,952 --> 00:01:18,370
Hey!
11
00:01:27,755 --> 00:01:28,839
Ursus!
12
00:01:31,425 --> 00:01:32,510
Ursus!
13
00:02:08,712 --> 00:02:10,214
I'll open up.
14
00:02:12,049 --> 00:02:13,801
We need more slates.
15
00:02:17,179 --> 00:02:19,682
And another clerk
to handle the swing bets.
16
00:02:22,601 --> 00:02:24,436
- Did you hear me?
- Yes.
17
00:02:55,426 --> 00:02:57,052
This was left at the door.
18
00:02:57,386 --> 00:02:59,889
- Read it to me.
- It might be personal, I...
19
00:02:59,972 --> 00:03:00,890
Just...
20
00:03:02,308 --> 00:03:03,183
Do it.
21
00:03:06,395 --> 00:03:07,771
Don't be ashamed.
22
00:03:08,355 --> 00:03:11,650
My people had no written language
for a thousand years.
23
00:03:12,109 --> 00:03:13,110
Our past is silent.
24
00:03:13,652 --> 00:03:14,862
I'm not ashamed.
25
00:03:16,864 --> 00:03:17,948
Just read it.
26
00:03:27,207 --> 00:03:28,334
Out loud!
27
00:03:30,252 --> 00:03:31,253
To me.
28
00:03:33,589 --> 00:03:34,673
"All of your winnings,
29
00:03:35,132 --> 00:03:36,926
at the end of each race day,
30
00:03:37,009 --> 00:03:40,220
put in the corner room, second floor,
in your insula at Cispian Hill."
31
00:03:40,304 --> 00:03:43,140
"It's the price of my silence..."
32
00:03:49,772 --> 00:03:51,023
No one learns of this.
33
00:05:42,259 --> 00:05:43,302
The one
34
00:05:43,385 --> 00:05:44,928
who bet the little gold horse.
35
00:05:45,220 --> 00:05:47,306
Big, with the burn scars on his face...
36
00:05:48,307 --> 00:05:49,141
Find him.
37
00:05:49,224 --> 00:05:52,269
- We've been keeping our eyes...
- I said find him, now!
38
00:05:52,644 --> 00:05:54,897
Look in every betting tavern,
39
00:05:54,980 --> 00:05:58,317
every brothel, every gutter,
every shithole.
40
00:05:58,776 --> 00:05:59,818
Find him!
41
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:01,737
You wait for me out there.
42
00:06:05,616 --> 00:06:06,617
Eat.
43
00:06:08,952 --> 00:06:09,787
Hey!
44
00:06:10,329 --> 00:06:12,289
You're the best out of this lot.
45
00:06:12,664 --> 00:06:14,208
I've got something for you to do.
46
00:06:14,583 --> 00:06:17,961
There's an apartment on Cispian Hill,
second floor, corner room.
47
00:06:18,212 --> 00:06:19,046
I know it.
48
00:06:19,546 --> 00:06:22,549
Go there, take a look around,
see what you can see.
49
00:06:22,633 --> 00:06:24,343
Who's watching. Be...
50
00:06:24,426 --> 00:06:25,427
invisible.
51
00:06:26,345 --> 00:06:28,055
Hey. Eat first.
52
00:06:32,226 --> 00:06:33,644
The Subura first,
53
00:06:33,852 --> 00:06:35,896
I've some ideas where he might be hiding.
54
00:06:42,152 --> 00:06:44,530
Sister, I got this for you.
55
00:06:45,072 --> 00:06:46,240
Thank you.
56
00:06:50,994 --> 00:06:51,829
Tenax.
57
00:06:52,371 --> 00:06:53,205
I found him.
58
00:06:53,539 --> 00:06:54,873
The big scarred man.
59
00:06:55,082 --> 00:06:56,083
This way!
60
00:07:02,297 --> 00:07:03,465
Hey!
61
00:07:03,882 --> 00:07:05,050
Shhh.
62
00:07:16,061 --> 00:07:17,271
Welcome...
63
00:07:43,297 --> 00:07:44,256
Please, please!
64
00:07:44,923 --> 00:07:46,466
Don't kill me. Don't kill me!
65
00:07:47,050 --> 00:07:48,010
Keep looking.
66
00:08:51,448 --> 00:08:52,574
Come on!
67
00:08:57,371 --> 00:08:58,956
Xenon!
68
00:09:02,501 --> 00:09:03,710
Not Scorpus!
69
00:09:16,682 --> 00:09:17,766
Come on!
70
00:09:17,849 --> 00:09:18,892
Come on!
71
00:09:27,943 --> 00:09:28,819
Yes!
72
00:09:33,657 --> 00:09:34,783
Xenon!
73
00:09:35,575 --> 00:09:36,660
Yes!
74
00:09:48,338 --> 00:09:49,548
Yes!
75
00:09:49,881 --> 00:09:51,717
- God!
- Yes!
76
00:10:01,351 --> 00:10:03,270
It seems Xenon is earning his salary.
77
00:10:03,353 --> 00:10:05,147
He most certainly is.
78
00:10:06,940 --> 00:10:08,317
Thank you! Thank you all.
79
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,652
A victory both noble and deserved.
80
00:10:11,570 --> 00:10:13,530
Thank you. Thank you.
81
00:10:20,912 --> 00:10:22,080
Congratulations.
82
00:10:22,706 --> 00:10:23,874
Shut your mouth.
83
00:10:23,957 --> 00:10:25,876
Oh come on! Third place!
84
00:10:26,126 --> 00:10:29,463
That's much better than one
would expect with those old nags.
85
00:10:30,672 --> 00:10:32,424
Can't really say I miss them.
86
00:10:37,971 --> 00:10:39,806
Didn't go so well for you today.
87
00:10:42,809 --> 00:10:43,935
Piss off.
88
00:10:44,394 --> 00:10:45,729
Why are you angry with me?
89
00:10:46,229 --> 00:10:48,357
I'm not angry that you signed
for the White.
90
00:10:49,649 --> 00:10:50,609
I'm hurt...
91
00:10:51,276 --> 00:10:52,527
Hurt you didn't trust me.
92
00:10:56,073 --> 00:10:58,241
Something has happened. You need to come!
93
00:11:38,323 --> 00:11:39,574
Nica...
94
00:11:42,035 --> 00:11:45,330
Come... Come... Nica...
95
00:11:46,498 --> 00:11:47,749
I'm sorry.
96
00:11:53,630 --> 00:11:54,881
Scorpus...
97
00:11:55,590 --> 00:11:56,842
comes in third.
98
00:12:03,515 --> 00:12:05,475
Scorpus, fucking third!
99
00:12:11,356 --> 00:12:12,983
Fucking third!
100
00:12:15,902 --> 00:12:17,028
Fucking...
101
00:12:52,355 --> 00:12:55,108
Sleep safe. One eye open.
102
00:13:01,072 --> 00:13:02,532
I never knew my mother.
103
00:13:03,533 --> 00:13:04,409
Felix...
104
00:13:04,951 --> 00:13:07,078
he remembered her before she got sick.
105
00:13:07,829 --> 00:13:09,206
He said she was really pretty.
106
00:13:10,248 --> 00:13:11,416
Like you...
107
00:13:13,793 --> 00:13:15,003
Your mother...
108
00:13:17,380 --> 00:13:19,633
she's up there in the clouds.
109
00:13:20,509 --> 00:13:21,843
Watching you.
110
00:13:25,889 --> 00:13:27,265
I sent him there.
111
00:13:28,808 --> 00:13:30,101
I should've known.
112
00:13:48,119 --> 00:13:49,329
Are you sure about this?
113
00:13:52,874 --> 00:13:54,167
He killed a child.
114
00:13:57,963 --> 00:13:58,838
Hurry up.
115
00:14:01,007 --> 00:14:02,092
Come.
116
00:14:02,676 --> 00:14:03,552
Hey.
117
00:14:14,646 --> 00:14:15,855
That's all of it.
118
00:14:17,482 --> 00:14:18,358
Listen to me.
119
00:14:20,485 --> 00:14:23,488
Two of you watch this place, at all times.
120
00:14:24,239 --> 00:14:25,740
Hide better than Felix did.
121
00:14:26,324 --> 00:14:27,826
You saw what happened to him.
122
00:14:29,369 --> 00:14:31,454
If the big scarred man comes,
123
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,292
one of you follows him
and the other one comes to find me.
124
00:14:36,751 --> 00:14:37,711
Be...
125
00:14:38,461 --> 00:14:39,296
very...
126
00:14:40,171 --> 00:14:41,172
careful.
127
00:15:00,525 --> 00:15:02,235
A praying Tenax?
128
00:15:02,902 --> 00:15:04,195
I'm a gambling man.
129
00:15:04,779 --> 00:15:06,281
I'll try anything once.
130
00:15:08,575 --> 00:15:09,534
Why are you up?
131
00:15:10,619 --> 00:15:11,870
I couldn't sleep.
132
00:15:37,979 --> 00:15:40,398
Felix was me, twenty years ago.
133
00:15:42,233 --> 00:15:44,611
I lived in the underbelly,
near the stables.
134
00:15:46,404 --> 00:15:47,238
A stray?
135
00:15:49,658 --> 00:15:52,202
I always liked horses.
So, when I got to Rome,
136
00:15:52,285 --> 00:15:53,745
it felt like the place to go.
137
00:15:55,538 --> 00:15:56,790
Near the stables.
138
00:15:58,416 --> 00:16:00,460
We slept in a big pile,
139
00:16:00,543 --> 00:16:04,464
thirty, or forty of us,
for warmth and for safety...
140
00:16:07,384 --> 00:16:09,010
as if there was such a thing.
141
00:16:11,137 --> 00:16:13,473
But you crawled your way out of it.
142
00:16:18,561 --> 00:16:19,938
I scavenged...
143
00:16:20,647 --> 00:16:22,565
one bit of food at a time.
144
00:16:23,650 --> 00:16:25,193
One ugly errand,
145
00:16:25,527 --> 00:16:29,572
one beating taken, one beating given,
one knife to the ribs,
146
00:16:29,656 --> 00:16:32,701
one fixed race, one apartment bought,
147
00:16:33,284 --> 00:16:35,912
one step at a time.
148
00:16:42,627 --> 00:16:44,587
Rise or die.
149
00:16:46,715 --> 00:16:47,966
The Roman way.
150
00:16:53,763 --> 00:16:55,223
And before Rome?
151
00:16:57,726 --> 00:16:58,977
What does he know,
152
00:16:59,352 --> 00:17:01,479
this one who demands the money?
153
00:17:09,446 --> 00:17:11,990
Something to do with this, I'll wager.
154
00:17:15,243 --> 00:17:16,161
Healed well.
155
00:17:16,494 --> 00:17:18,788
If there is such a thing.
156
00:17:29,632 --> 00:17:30,717
Sleep.
157
00:17:51,571 --> 00:17:52,947
Are we racing, Xenon?
158
00:17:53,031 --> 00:17:54,407
There is no race today!
159
00:17:59,496 --> 00:18:00,914
You never have any fun?
160
00:18:01,539 --> 00:18:02,791
And end up like you?
161
00:18:05,335 --> 00:18:06,961
Doesn't seem like fun to me.
162
00:18:08,922 --> 00:18:09,881
Well...
163
00:18:10,715 --> 00:18:11,758
it is.
164
00:18:19,474 --> 00:18:21,267
That's a big trunk for a small boy.
165
00:18:21,643 --> 00:18:23,520
Running off to join the legions, are we?
166
00:18:24,062 --> 00:18:26,439
Mother says we're moving into a big house.
167
00:18:27,106 --> 00:18:28,775
I'm going to have my own room.
168
00:18:28,858 --> 00:18:31,236
Then let me help you with that,
your eminence.
169
00:18:38,618 --> 00:18:39,619
Saddle up.
170
00:18:52,215 --> 00:18:53,132
Fonsoa...
171
00:18:53,550 --> 00:18:55,510
I see my son has put you to work.
172
00:18:56,052 --> 00:18:57,846
Big man, I need your help.
173
00:18:57,929 --> 00:18:58,847
Oh yes.
174
00:19:01,224 --> 00:19:02,517
So, where to?
175
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:03,768
The Esquiline.
176
00:19:03,852 --> 00:19:06,229
It's a big house,
with a cistern and a garden.
177
00:19:07,063 --> 00:19:09,232
It's just the home
of a friend of my mother.
178
00:19:09,315 --> 00:19:11,442
Just knowing that you are
where you belong.
179
00:19:12,610 --> 00:19:14,571
And have you found where you belong?
180
00:19:15,613 --> 00:19:18,074
Isn't your beautiful Baetica
calling to you?
181
00:19:19,284 --> 00:19:20,118
It was.
182
00:19:23,580 --> 00:19:26,624
Well, I thank you for making
this place bearable for him.
183
00:19:27,584 --> 00:19:29,377
I had practice with my little brother.
184
00:19:29,627 --> 00:19:31,254
My mother died giving birth.
185
00:19:31,504 --> 00:19:33,882
And our older brother
was always off with horses.
186
00:19:34,215 --> 00:19:35,341
So it fell to me.
187
00:19:37,468 --> 00:19:39,679
There were tough times, even in paradise.
188
00:19:42,599 --> 00:19:43,725
Fonsoa.
189
00:19:45,184 --> 00:19:47,020
Did you forget about me?
190
00:19:51,900 --> 00:19:53,026
We should be going now.
191
00:19:53,109 --> 00:19:55,653
- Let me help.
- No please, you've done enough already.
192
00:19:55,737 --> 00:19:56,696
Please.
193
00:20:01,701 --> 00:20:03,578
- Jump on.
- Oh.
194
00:20:06,289 --> 00:20:07,540
- Ready?
- Yes.
195
00:20:22,972 --> 00:20:25,266
Are you going to tell me
what's on your mind?
196
00:20:26,017 --> 00:20:28,645
You are telling everybody
that I will be returning home.
197
00:20:28,895 --> 00:20:32,815
Yes, once we've earned enough
for your passage to Leptis Magna.
198
00:20:32,899 --> 00:20:34,484
Wouldn't it be better if I waited?
199
00:20:35,735 --> 00:20:38,237
- We could return as a family.
- No.
200
00:20:38,947 --> 00:20:42,533
Only the gods can say how long it will
take to free your brother and sister.
201
00:20:42,617 --> 00:20:45,536
And I need you to run
to trading post in my absence.
202
00:20:45,620 --> 00:20:46,829
Seeno can do that!
203
00:20:47,372 --> 00:20:48,665
Oh, you'd rather stay here,
204
00:20:48,748 --> 00:20:50,750
in this den of serpents?
205
00:20:50,833 --> 00:20:52,710
Rome is far too dangerous a place.
206
00:20:56,756 --> 00:20:57,590
Mm-mm.
207
00:20:57,674 --> 00:20:58,883
I'm surprised
208
00:20:58,967 --> 00:21:02,136
I even have to tell you this
given our experience.
209
00:21:02,553 --> 00:21:04,597
Do I have no say in this matter?
210
00:21:05,306 --> 00:21:09,018
Mother, we have come all this way
to the centre of the world,
211
00:21:09,102 --> 00:21:11,562
I just wish to see some of it for myself.
212
00:21:11,771 --> 00:21:14,357
Your brother and sister
are fighting for their lives,
213
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,818
and you talk as if
this is some great adventure.
214
00:21:17,068 --> 00:21:19,237
I had to come here to save you from
215
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,280
ending up a whore in a stall!
216
00:21:22,073 --> 00:21:23,241
Kwame may very well die
217
00:21:23,324 --> 00:21:25,576
in the arena because of your foolishness.
218
00:21:31,708 --> 00:21:32,667
I'm sorry.
219
00:21:33,418 --> 00:21:34,419
I'm sorry.
220
00:21:34,836 --> 00:21:36,004
I'm sorry.
221
00:21:36,295 --> 00:21:38,673
It is not my intention to be cruel.
222
00:21:39,632 --> 00:21:43,761
My oldest daughter
has a responsibility to this family.
223
00:21:44,929 --> 00:21:46,973
I won't suffer selfishness.
224
00:21:48,975 --> 00:21:51,811
You are not the only one
who is suffering, mother.
225
00:21:54,188 --> 00:21:55,023
Aura!
226
00:22:06,701 --> 00:22:09,078
I could have sent slaves
for your belongings.
227
00:22:11,247 --> 00:22:12,290
It was no trouble.
228
00:22:12,582 --> 00:22:13,541
Thank you.
229
00:22:13,666 --> 00:22:15,293
My people will take it from here.
230
00:22:18,588 --> 00:22:20,590
Good luck to you. To you both.
231
00:22:20,673 --> 00:22:22,759
Thank you. To you as well.
232
00:22:45,364 --> 00:22:46,199
You're late.
233
00:22:46,282 --> 00:22:48,826
Listen, one of the grooms, the skinny one,
234
00:22:49,285 --> 00:22:52,205
said the Red Faction
is looking to hire a reserve driver.
235
00:22:52,538 --> 00:22:54,415
We work for the Gold faction, brother.
236
00:22:54,499 --> 00:22:55,583
What Gold faction?
237
00:22:55,666 --> 00:22:57,043
Tenax said he'll fix it.
238
00:23:00,338 --> 00:23:01,631
What if he doesn't?
239
00:23:03,549 --> 00:23:06,094
Alright. We'll go with your plan.
240
00:23:06,344 --> 00:23:07,804
We get hired by the Red Faction,
241
00:23:08,346 --> 00:23:11,307
have Tenax keep our horses
and kill us for the insult.
242
00:23:11,390 --> 00:23:12,350
Great idea!
243
00:23:15,895 --> 00:23:17,188
Xenon is great at this.
244
00:23:26,697 --> 00:23:28,241
Yeah, he is.
245
00:23:40,086 --> 00:23:43,089
Strange that the crowd
didn't demand he get the wooden sword.
246
00:23:43,214 --> 00:23:45,424
They did. Three times.
247
00:23:45,883 --> 00:23:49,428
Each time they granted him freedom,
he told them to shove it up their asses.
248
00:23:51,055 --> 00:23:53,432
What type of man
chooses to stay in the arena?
249
00:23:55,393 --> 00:23:57,019
One who's not worried about losing.
250
00:24:11,868 --> 00:24:12,910
Gladiators...
251
00:24:13,661 --> 00:24:14,495
Come closer.
252
00:24:17,331 --> 00:24:21,002
To celebrate the wedding
of our Emperor Titus.
253
00:24:22,336 --> 00:24:24,714
Special games have been called.
254
00:24:25,339 --> 00:24:26,549
When is the wedding?
255
00:24:26,883 --> 00:24:27,967
Am I to attend?
256
00:24:28,926 --> 00:24:31,846
It happened already,
in the dead of night, they say.
257
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,058
None the less,
it calls for games of celebration.
258
00:24:36,809 --> 00:24:39,020
Flamma will lead the spectacle.
259
00:24:40,188 --> 00:24:45,568
His opponent, chosen personally by the
Aedile Ludi, Flavius Domitianus,
260
00:24:45,735 --> 00:24:49,739
is no other than our little Lion Killer...
261
00:24:50,156 --> 00:24:51,365
Kwame.
262
00:24:54,243 --> 00:24:58,164
He will, of course, need some
help to make it last long enough
263
00:24:58,247 --> 00:25:00,166
to be called entertainment.
264
00:25:01,083 --> 00:25:02,168
Ozzi,
265
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:04,045
Prizzi,
266
00:25:04,337 --> 00:25:06,297
you will have the honor of dying
267
00:25:06,380 --> 00:25:08,799
with Kwame at Flamma's hands.
268
00:25:30,404 --> 00:25:31,697
I am sorry, brother.
269
00:25:36,994 --> 00:25:37,954
Come.
270
00:25:38,955 --> 00:25:40,164
Back to training.
271
00:25:41,624 --> 00:25:44,252
I would hate for my death
to disappoint a new Empress.
272
00:25:45,753 --> 00:25:47,546
How could you desert the Whites?
273
00:25:47,630 --> 00:25:49,382
Xenon drives for the Blues now.
274
00:25:49,674 --> 00:25:52,468
And where's your loyalty to our faction?
275
00:25:52,551 --> 00:25:55,096
My loyalty is with my man Xenon.
276
00:25:55,179 --> 00:25:57,056
Where he goes, I go.
277
00:25:57,139 --> 00:25:57,974
Well,
278
00:25:58,432 --> 00:26:02,311
you two will make a lovely couple.
279
00:26:02,728 --> 00:26:04,855
This race is a sure thing.
280
00:26:05,147 --> 00:26:08,526
The Greens run only Maremano mares,
unbeatable after rainfall.
281
00:26:09,568 --> 00:26:12,613
If Jupiter opens the skies tonight,
which he will,
282
00:26:12,697 --> 00:26:14,073
you'll triple your money.
283
00:26:14,156 --> 00:26:15,908
So why tell me all this?
284
00:26:16,284 --> 00:26:19,412
No betting tavern will take my credit.
But if you front me
285
00:26:19,495 --> 00:26:21,289
- twenty sesterces...
- Right, right...
286
00:26:21,664 --> 00:26:23,124
Cato, I'm trying to help you.
287
00:26:23,207 --> 00:26:25,960
Like you helped your wife,
gambling away her fortune.
288
00:26:26,419 --> 00:26:28,921
Anybody with eyes,
knows that race was a fix.
289
00:26:30,089 --> 00:26:32,425
Tenax fucked me to get those shares.
290
00:26:34,468 --> 00:26:36,345
I warned you about that sort of talk.
291
00:26:36,429 --> 00:26:38,973
How did he get Scorpus
to hold back? I'll never know.
292
00:26:39,473 --> 00:26:41,684
Tenax fucked me to get those shares.
293
00:26:42,143 --> 00:26:43,894
Stain another floor with your blood.
294
00:27:03,247 --> 00:27:05,916
So, I hear you lost
your faction shares to Tenax.
295
00:27:07,126 --> 00:27:08,669
Someone wants to speak to you.
296
00:27:09,962 --> 00:27:10,838
Come.
297
00:27:26,062 --> 00:27:26,937
Welcome.
298
00:27:28,189 --> 00:27:29,482
It's Rufus, yes?
299
00:27:31,734 --> 00:27:34,695
I am told you've had dealings with Tenax.
300
00:27:35,404 --> 00:27:37,531
The one they call the King of the Subura.
301
00:27:38,157 --> 00:27:39,158
Please sit.
302
00:27:44,330 --> 00:27:45,539
Forgive my appearance.
303
00:27:46,290 --> 00:27:49,126
I wasn't expecting an audience
with the Queen of the Jews.
304
00:27:50,002 --> 00:27:53,714
I'm told he rigged a race
and stole your shares of the Blue Faction.
305
00:27:54,423 --> 00:27:57,218
The shame in Salena's eyes
when she saw what I'd done.
306
00:28:00,846 --> 00:28:02,014
My beautiful son.
307
00:28:06,185 --> 00:28:09,480
It occurred to me that we may
be able to help one another.
308
00:28:11,065 --> 00:28:12,233
A question:
309
00:28:12,316 --> 00:28:15,277
have you seen this Tenax
in the company of the Emperor's brother?
310
00:28:16,070 --> 00:28:17,405
Not with my own eyes.
311
00:28:18,114 --> 00:28:20,074
But I'm told Tenax is Domitian's client.
312
00:28:21,117 --> 00:28:24,537
Rumour has it that it was Domitian
who approved Tenax's Gold Faction.
313
00:28:26,580 --> 00:28:28,249
Is this where you give me a dagger
314
00:28:29,291 --> 00:28:31,127
and ask me to slit Tenax's throat?
315
00:28:32,086 --> 00:28:34,797
I assure you there are more competent men
for that task.
316
00:28:35,131 --> 00:28:36,882
I don't want you to kill Tenax...
317
00:28:38,801 --> 00:28:40,678
I want you to ask him for work.
318
00:28:52,606 --> 00:28:53,899
It is alright.
319
00:28:54,483 --> 00:28:55,568
Tell me your name.
320
00:29:03,367 --> 00:29:04,410
Ahren!
321
00:29:05,953 --> 00:29:07,204
Where have you been?
322
00:29:09,206 --> 00:29:10,666
You're getting big.
323
00:29:16,839 --> 00:29:17,923
Kwame...
324
00:29:18,841 --> 00:29:19,842
any sleep?
325
00:29:20,634 --> 00:29:22,636
Why waste my last moments on sleep?
326
00:29:24,138 --> 00:29:27,725
My wife, Linza, and my... my son, Ahren.
327
00:29:28,392 --> 00:29:30,227
- You would honour us?
- Please.
328
00:29:30,311 --> 00:29:31,604
Please, come. Sit.
329
00:29:38,194 --> 00:29:40,988
I have two sisters also in Rome.
330
00:29:42,364 --> 00:29:43,657
I won't see them again.
331
00:29:49,747 --> 00:29:51,248
Your husband fights well.
332
00:29:52,666 --> 00:29:54,460
He will win the wooden sword.
333
00:29:54,877 --> 00:29:56,170
So I pray.
334
00:29:56,795 --> 00:29:58,172
And when I do...
335
00:29:58,756 --> 00:30:01,091
the three of us will return to Buri.
336
00:30:01,717 --> 00:30:05,054
My father left me a farm there with geese,
a couple of goats.
337
00:30:05,930 --> 00:30:08,224
Me and Linza will breed both,
338
00:30:08,307 --> 00:30:11,977
and ourselves as well,
making more babies, lots of them.
339
00:30:12,353 --> 00:30:14,063
Would you like to be a big brother?
340
00:30:14,438 --> 00:30:16,482
Yes, you'd be a good big brother.
341
00:30:18,442 --> 00:30:20,277
A good thing to ask the Gods for.
342
00:30:21,445 --> 00:30:23,113
Babies, geese and goats.
343
00:30:25,741 --> 00:30:26,659
No, I...
344
00:30:28,285 --> 00:30:31,330
I ask the Gods to protect you, my brother.
345
00:30:37,336 --> 00:30:41,090
You waste an entreaty to the Gods...
for me?
346
00:30:42,091 --> 00:30:43,175
Not waste it...
347
00:30:48,222 --> 00:30:52,977
Perhaps one day, I will visit your farm
and meet your children.
348
00:30:55,062 --> 00:30:56,689
And don't forget the goats.
349
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:07,783
The madness of it!
350
00:31:08,576 --> 00:31:10,369
Titus married his cousin...
351
00:31:12,413 --> 00:31:13,998
A provincial nothing.
352
00:31:19,712 --> 00:31:21,422
If only I knew a man
353
00:31:22,298 --> 00:31:24,300
with undiluted Patrician blood
354
00:31:25,301 --> 00:31:27,469
who might ascend the Curule Chair.
355
00:31:28,512 --> 00:31:31,473
Someone with a brilliant military record,
356
00:31:32,266 --> 00:31:33,934
comfortable with command.
357
00:31:34,727 --> 00:31:36,937
We've done this dance before, Antonia.
358
00:31:37,229 --> 00:31:41,108
Every Patrician from here to Alexandria
has done this dance and is doing it now.
359
00:31:41,483 --> 00:31:44,111
The Senate turns to you
in moments of crisis.
360
00:31:44,361 --> 00:31:46,864
Many of them would kill
to see you on the Curule Chair.
361
00:31:46,947 --> 00:31:49,533
Careful! What we say inside
our own home is one thing,
362
00:31:49,617 --> 00:31:53,245
but such a conversation, outside these
walls, is a die that cannot be uncast.
363
00:31:54,580 --> 00:31:57,374
Are you unsure
if I would make a good empress?
364
00:31:57,625 --> 00:32:01,211
That, my dear,
is the one thing of which I am sure.
365
00:32:01,295 --> 00:32:04,340
Empress, what a lovely word.
366
00:32:04,965 --> 00:32:06,925
Not as lovely as Emperor.
367
00:32:07,009 --> 00:32:07,926
Shhh...
368
00:32:08,844 --> 00:32:10,346
Civil war comes at a cost.
369
00:32:11,513 --> 00:32:14,183
Senators, even those in my camp,
remember that.
370
00:32:14,642 --> 00:32:17,311
The Senate and the mob
turned against Nero after the fires.
371
00:32:17,394 --> 00:32:18,479
Fires?
372
00:32:19,271 --> 00:32:22,024
You'd put a torch to Rome
to satisfy our ambition?
373
00:32:23,192 --> 00:32:24,902
For you and for our son.
374
00:32:25,569 --> 00:32:26,904
And for our family...
375
00:32:27,279 --> 00:32:29,907
I'd burn down the entire fucking Empire.
376
00:32:31,825 --> 00:32:34,662
What kind of Emperor would I be
if I sacrificed the city
377
00:32:35,162 --> 00:32:36,538
to obtain dominion over it.
378
00:32:38,707 --> 00:32:39,875
We don't need a fire...
379
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:43,337
we just need a spark.
380
00:32:47,591 --> 00:32:48,676
I'll have 20.
381
00:32:54,682 --> 00:32:55,974
Thank you, my dear.
382
00:33:02,898 --> 00:33:04,400
- Get out!
- May we speak?
383
00:33:04,483 --> 00:33:06,527
- I said get out.
- Please...
384
00:33:06,610 --> 00:33:09,905
If this is about the shares
and whatever you think I did to get them,
385
00:33:10,614 --> 00:33:11,782
don't waste your breath.
386
00:33:11,865 --> 00:33:13,867
- I'm here to ask for work.
- Doing what?
387
00:33:14,118 --> 00:33:16,537
Anything you need.
Nobody else will hire me.
388
00:33:17,121 --> 00:33:18,205
For a good reason.
389
00:33:18,580 --> 00:33:20,332
I'll drink less and never steal.
390
00:33:22,668 --> 00:33:23,919
At least from you.
391
00:33:24,712 --> 00:33:27,381
I've heard that from much
stronger men than you.
392
00:33:27,589 --> 00:33:28,882
I swear it on my son.
393
00:33:29,341 --> 00:33:30,551
A good oath.
394
00:33:31,343 --> 00:33:32,636
But not from a fool.
395
00:33:33,095 --> 00:33:34,888
No, Tenax, please...
396
00:33:35,931 --> 00:33:36,974
I beg you!
397
00:33:37,641 --> 00:33:38,684
Please.
398
00:33:48,527 --> 00:33:50,195
Three sesterces a day.
399
00:33:50,279 --> 00:33:52,448
And you do whatever she says.
400
00:33:53,115 --> 00:33:54,199
Thank you, Tenax, I...
401
00:33:54,283 --> 00:33:56,034
If you steal from me...
402
00:33:56,368 --> 00:33:57,995
I will cut off your hands,
403
00:33:58,203 --> 00:33:59,538
and sell them to Carpo.
404
00:34:03,917 --> 00:34:04,960
Thank you.
405
00:34:12,593 --> 00:34:13,510
Mother!
406
00:34:17,890 --> 00:34:20,642
- No, no, no...
- What is it? What is it?
407
00:34:21,894 --> 00:34:23,896
Flamma and Kwame.
408
00:34:26,523 --> 00:34:27,691
Kwame...
409
00:34:28,734 --> 00:34:30,277
Did you know about this?
410
00:34:30,903 --> 00:34:31,737
No.
411
00:34:33,030 --> 00:34:34,239
What can I do?
412
00:34:34,323 --> 00:34:35,824
There's no stopping it.
413
00:34:35,991 --> 00:34:37,159
Not now.
414
00:34:38,076 --> 00:34:40,788
It's been posted,
they'll already be at the staging area.
415
00:34:40,871 --> 00:34:42,331
Everything has a price.
416
00:34:42,414 --> 00:34:44,208
Not this, Not now.
417
00:34:44,583 --> 00:34:47,544
But you know people,
you have influence. And you can do it...
418
00:34:47,628 --> 00:34:51,840
Were I the Emperor himself,
I couldn't stop this now.
419
00:34:54,635 --> 00:34:56,094
The mob smells blood.
420
00:35:03,018 --> 00:35:04,228
Can I see him?
421
00:35:22,496 --> 00:35:24,832
We hail the Emperor Titus,
422
00:35:25,082 --> 00:35:27,209
and his new wife, the Empress Marcia.
423
00:35:29,670 --> 00:35:31,880
The Emperor is pleased to announce
424
00:35:31,964 --> 00:35:33,674
that after weeks of famine,
425
00:35:33,757 --> 00:35:35,425
he has filled the granaries.
426
00:35:35,926 --> 00:35:40,556
The citizens of Rome
will go hungry no more!
427
00:35:41,098 --> 00:35:44,101
And in honour of his new wife Marcia,
428
00:35:44,184 --> 00:35:48,063
he offers a special day of games.
429
00:35:49,398 --> 00:35:50,858
Cousin, good to see you again.
430
00:35:50,941 --> 00:35:54,319
You arrived just in time to watch
Flamma slay three men in your honour.
431
00:35:54,778 --> 00:35:57,531
Also, in your honour,
I've suspended Domitian's confinement.
432
00:35:58,156 --> 00:36:00,242
Together we can enjoy
a glorious day of games.
433
00:36:01,034 --> 00:36:02,286
My thanks.
434
00:36:02,369 --> 00:36:04,580
And I get to keep
my two watch dogs by my side.
435
00:36:04,663 --> 00:36:05,664
By the way...
436
00:36:07,791 --> 00:36:09,251
that's my wife's seat.
437
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:25,642
Boo!
438
00:36:36,737 --> 00:36:37,821
Let her through.
439
00:36:45,370 --> 00:36:46,413
Son...
440
00:36:48,582 --> 00:36:49,750
Mother.
441
00:36:53,545 --> 00:36:55,797
Aura, she's free.
442
00:36:56,632 --> 00:36:58,300
Soon, Jula will be too.
443
00:36:58,592 --> 00:36:59,593
Good.
444
00:37:00,052 --> 00:37:00,928
You...
445
00:37:01,845 --> 00:37:04,097
You are going to win this fight.
446
00:37:04,723 --> 00:37:07,184
Then we can all go home together.
447
00:37:07,309 --> 00:37:08,477
Whatever happens,
448
00:37:08,977 --> 00:37:10,604
I will make the best of things.
449
00:37:11,063 --> 00:37:13,231
No! No, no, no.
450
00:37:14,024 --> 00:37:15,734
Look at me... me!
451
00:37:18,528 --> 00:37:19,821
The day you were born,
452
00:37:20,072 --> 00:37:22,658
your father took one look at you,
and said...
453
00:37:23,325 --> 00:37:26,912
"The spirit of Apedemak,
the lion headed God
454
00:37:26,995 --> 00:37:28,872
lives in our Son."
455
00:37:31,500 --> 00:37:34,252
He was always more superstitious than me.
456
00:37:35,045 --> 00:37:37,756
Honestly, I thought
that was utter nonsense.
457
00:37:41,885 --> 00:37:43,720
But now I can see it.
458
00:37:48,225 --> 00:37:49,476
I see it.
459
00:37:51,061 --> 00:37:54,064
As clearly as that trident in your hand.
460
00:37:56,233 --> 00:38:01,405
It is a terrible thing they expect you
to do, but you must do it.
461
00:38:02,948 --> 00:38:03,949
I know, mother.
462
00:38:04,032 --> 00:38:05,701
When you reach the sand,
463
00:38:06,326 --> 00:38:07,911
do not stop.
464
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,622
Do not give up
until they pull you off him.
465
00:38:11,415 --> 00:38:12,541
I won't stop.
466
00:38:13,333 --> 00:38:15,877
Then we will see each other again.
467
00:38:21,967 --> 00:38:23,385
Say it, Kwame.
468
00:38:26,972 --> 00:38:28,056
Gates!
469
00:38:31,268 --> 00:38:33,437
- I will see you again.
- Say it.
470
00:38:34,813 --> 00:38:35,731
I'll see you again.
471
00:38:36,857 --> 00:38:37,774
Say it!
472
00:38:42,029 --> 00:38:43,155
I will see you again!
473
00:38:45,115 --> 00:38:46,033
We must go!
474
00:38:46,450 --> 00:38:47,409
Go!
475
00:38:50,245 --> 00:38:51,079
You...
476
00:38:51,621 --> 00:38:54,082
are the lion that protects the family.
477
00:39:36,333 --> 00:39:38,001
We, who are about to die,
478
00:39:38,668 --> 00:39:40,087
salute you!
479
00:39:45,759 --> 00:39:46,676
Chain them.
480
00:39:48,220 --> 00:39:49,304
What is this?
481
00:39:50,764 --> 00:39:51,973
Come. Come, come.
482
00:39:52,057 --> 00:39:53,850
Flamma! Flamma!
483
00:39:56,853 --> 00:39:58,188
Stay in the middle.
484
00:39:58,396 --> 00:40:00,816
For our final bout today,
485
00:40:01,399 --> 00:40:02,776
the great Flamma
486
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:04,611
will do battle,
487
00:40:04,694 --> 00:40:07,656
with a force known only in myth.
488
00:40:08,990 --> 00:40:11,743
The wicked net men from the Siren Islands.
489
00:40:34,516 --> 00:40:35,851
Gladiators!
490
00:40:38,728 --> 00:40:39,855
Ready!
491
00:40:42,315 --> 00:40:43,358
Engage!
492
00:40:47,612 --> 00:40:49,906
Hey, hey! Easy, brother.
493
00:40:50,448 --> 00:40:51,533
Stay together.
494
00:41:59,935 --> 00:42:01,478
Steady, my little friend.
495
00:42:02,479 --> 00:42:03,521
Steady.
496
00:42:32,759 --> 00:42:34,803
The Gods show their favour.
497
00:42:35,345 --> 00:42:36,263
I knew it.
498
00:43:01,746 --> 00:43:02,956
No, no!
499
00:43:03,039 --> 00:43:04,249
I'm sorry brother!
500
00:43:13,258 --> 00:43:14,342
Water.
501
00:43:15,302 --> 00:43:16,928
The Empress is looking rather pale.
502
00:43:17,512 --> 00:43:19,723
Perhaps someone to fan my brother as well.
503
00:43:29,524 --> 00:43:30,525
No!
504
00:43:31,484 --> 00:43:34,487
The small one shows great
valour in the face of certain defeat.
505
00:43:34,571 --> 00:43:36,781
It's a pity to see such virtue
wasted on sport.
506
00:43:36,865 --> 00:43:40,660
We'll see how virtue serves him when
Flamma puts a sword through his heart.
507
00:44:12,484 --> 00:44:16,488
You are the lion that protects our family.
508
00:46:14,772 --> 00:46:17,150
The games are so beneath you,
yet now you way in.
509
00:46:17,442 --> 00:46:19,235
Perseverance deserves recognition.
510
00:46:21,237 --> 00:46:22,906
No matter how lowly the venue.
511
00:46:23,323 --> 00:46:27,660
I'm curious, what martial virtue does
cutting your comrade's leg off fall under?
512
00:46:40,256 --> 00:46:41,466
What's going on?
513
00:46:42,258 --> 00:46:45,512
Winning the favour of the mob
in his first contest is no small feat.
514
00:46:46,596 --> 00:46:47,514
It bodes well.
515
00:46:48,181 --> 00:46:49,432
Might they free him?
516
00:46:50,266 --> 00:46:51,100
No.
517
00:46:51,809 --> 00:46:54,062
They'll want to watch him fight
again and again.
518
00:46:55,146 --> 00:46:57,023
If he's lucky he'll build a following...
519
00:46:58,107 --> 00:47:01,778
better opponents, better odds.
Perhaps I was hasty to bet against him.
520
00:47:02,111 --> 00:47:04,322
You had blood money on my son?
521
00:47:04,781 --> 00:47:05,907
This is Rome...
522
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:08,576
it's all blood money.
523
00:47:31,391 --> 00:47:33,017
Closer than usual today.
524
00:47:33,768 --> 00:47:35,353
Especially for you, no?
525
00:47:36,771 --> 00:47:37,855
My Emperor.
526
00:47:38,648 --> 00:47:39,649
Empress.
527
00:47:41,234 --> 00:47:45,655
Brother, why do you not bestow
the loser with his consolation prize.
528
00:48:34,871 --> 00:48:36,205
- Take cover!
- Mother!
529
00:49:00,897 --> 00:49:03,149
You asked the Gods for a spark.
530
00:49:04,525 --> 00:49:06,277
There is your spark.
