:27:01
- Actually of Macedonian descent.
:27:03
No officially admitted Egyptian blood.
:27:06
"Reputed to be extremely intelligent
and sharp of wit.
:27:09
Queen Cleopatra is widely read.
Well-versed in the sciences...
:27:12
...and mathematics.
:27:14
She speaks seven languages
proficiently.
:27:16
Were she not a woman, she'd be
considered an intellectual."
:27:21
Nothing bores me so much
as an intellectual.
:27:23
Makes a better admiral of you,
Agrippa.
:27:27
Here's something
of more interest to the navy:
:27:29
"In obtaining her objectives, she has
been known to use torture, poison...
:27:34
...and even her own sexual talents,
which are said to be considerable.
:27:39
Her lovers, I am told, are listed
more easily by number than by name.
:27:43
It is said that she chooses
in the manner of a man...
:27:46
...rather than wait to be chosen
in womanly fashion."
:27:49
Well, there's more reason
than we thought...
:27:51
...for not wanting to leave
you two alone, eh, sir?
:27:54
I'm sorry, I wasn't listening.
:27:56
Are you inclined to trust Cleopatra?
:27:59
Trust? Not for a minute.
:28:01
"Trust." The word has always
made me apprehensive.
:28:06
Like wine, whenever I've tried it,
the aftereffects have not been good.
:28:10
So I've given up wine...
:28:12
...and trusting.
:28:14
Oh, it's been a long
and difficult day, gentlemen.
:28:17
The next few may be even longer
and more difficult.
:28:20
- Good night.
- Good night.
