Sire, Tribune Gallio is here
as you commanded.

:06:22
But he was made ill by the voyage.
:06:24
l beg you to postpone the audience
until he is rested.

:06:28
- Does he ask for a postponement?
- No, sire, but l do. l implore you.

:06:32
lt would serve no purpose.
l will see him now.

:06:36
Bring him in.
:06:38
The lovely lady Diana married to an idiot.
:06:42
But she's too good for Caligula, isn't she?
:06:49
After 40 years with Julia,
:06:51
my approaching death
holds few terrors for me.

:06:54
Death, sire? But my last examination
proves you'll live for 20 years at least.

:06:58
- My physician is very loyal.
- Not 20, sire.

:07:02
30. l read it only last night
in the entrails of an owl.

:07:05
And my soothsayer even more loyal.
:07:08
The entrails of an owl.
:07:10
No, stay. We may have need
of you men of science.

:07:14
The entrails of an owl.
:07:24
- You are welcome, Tribune.
- Thank you, sire.

:07:27
l bring you dispatches from Pontius Pilate.
:07:30
By your leave, sire, he asked me
to put them into your hands and no others.

:07:34
Then they must hold bad news.
:07:37
- Sit down, Tribune.
- Thank you, sire.

:07:41
Tell me, what was your impression of Pilate?
:07:45
- lt's not my place to...
- l'm asking you.

:07:48
Did you find him capable?
:07:51
Yes, sire. He is considered
a good administrator.

:07:54
- Stern, as befits a Roman governor?
- l'm sure of that, sire.

:07:59
Just?
