And now they love Maximus
for his mercy.

:44:08
So I can't just kill him,
or it makes me even more unmerciful.

:44:14
The whole thing
is like some great nightmare.

:44:21
He is defying you.
:44:23
His every victory
is an act of defiance.

:44:28
The mob sees this,
and so do the senate.

:44:33
Every day he lives,
they grow bolder.

:44:38
- Kill him.
- No.

:44:42
I will not make a martyr of him.
:44:52
I have been told...
:44:55
of a certain sea snake...
:44:57
which has a very unusual method
of attracting its prey.

:45:03
It will lie at the bottom of the ocean
as if wounded.

:45:08
Then its enemies will approach...
:45:11
and yet it will lie quite still.
:45:15
Then its enemies
will take little bites of it...

:45:20
and yet it remains still.
:45:28
So...
:45:31
we will lie still...
:45:34
and let our enemies come to us
and nibble.

:45:39
Have every senator followed.
