The door. Run, you fool.
:13:04
- Good evening, Marcipor.
- Good evening, sir.

:13:07
lt's you.
:13:08
No household duties.
He'll be my personal attendant.

:13:16
You could have run away. Why didn't you?
:13:19
l owe you a debt, sir. l pay my debts.
:13:23
- Not a slave's reason. More like a Roman's.
- A Greek's.

:13:25
Yes, l know. ln the great days of Greece,
we Romans were no more than barbarians.

:13:31
Have Marcipor show you where l keep
my clothes. l'll change before dinner.

:13:38
Good evening, Mother. Lucia.
:13:41
Sorry, Mother, l was outbid for those twins.
:13:43
- We know, Marcellus.
- Diana was here.

:13:46
Diana? You should have
kept her till l got home.

:13:48
Marcellus. She told us that
you and Caligula had a quarrel...

:13:52
- Don't worry about that.
- Caligula's very angry.

:13:56
- She takes him too seriously.
- She has to.

:13:58
- She's going to marry him.
- Did she tell you that?

:14:01
Mother, look. l think
he's in love with her himself.

:14:05
Love's like wine. A sip hurts nobody, but
to empty the bottle is to invite a headache.

:14:10
Well, you won't even get a taste.
She thinks you're very funny.

:14:13
- She does?
- She thought you wanted the twins.

:14:17
- Lucia.
- That's what she said, Mother.

:14:21
Marcellus. Are you deliberately trying
to cut the ground from under my feet,

:14:26
orjust too much of a fool
to understand what you've done?

:14:29
You mean my difference
of opinion with Caligula?

:14:31
l lead the senators who oppose him, and my
son makes fun of him at private banquets,

:14:36
and now humiliates him in public.
:14:38
l'm fighting for the republic
against the tyranny of the emperors.

:14:41
- l know that.
- You know nothing.

:14:44
Nothing but dice and women.
:14:46
And now, by your behaviour
to Caligula, by these petty slights,

:14:49
you cripple me, make my fight
look like a personal quarrel.

:14:54
- Yes?
- Sir, Tribune Quintus is at the door.

:14:57
- For me?
- For your son.

:14:59
- l'm not at home.
- Yes, sir.
