Your leave. Give this to Tribune Gallio
when he does come home.
:15:11
Well, aren't you going to read it?
:15:13
After dinner.
:15:15
Good eating to you.
:15:19
Ladies. Senator Gallio.
:15:27
Quintus is a very important man.
:15:29
He was already my enemy.
:15:40
- May we know?
- lt's from Caligula.
:15:43
''The courage of a military tribune must not
be squandered in baths and banquet halls.''
:15:48
''You are ordered
to the garrison at Jerusalem.''
:15:51
- Jerusalem.
- ''You sail tonight on the Palestine galley.''
:15:57
That's all. Not even
an expression of his tender regard.
:16:03
Cornelia, he will need his things.
:16:09
Help your mother, Lucia.
:16:20
Where's Jerusalem?
:16:22
Palestine.
:16:25
The worst pest-hole in the empire.
:16:29
A stiff-necked, riotous people
always on the verge of rebellion.
:16:33
Our legions there are the scum of the army,
the officers little better than the men.
:16:38
Disease takes them off like flies.
:16:41
Some have been assassinated,
sometimes by their own men.
:16:44
Others have spared the assassins the trouble.
:16:48
What Caligula hopes he has given you
is your death sentence.
:16:53
- ''We who are about to die''?
- Marcellus.
:16:58
Marcellus, you are
the only son l'll ever have.
