General.
:36:02
I hope my coming here today
is evidence enough...
:36:05
that you can trust me.
:36:12
- The senate is with you?
- The senate?
:36:16
Yes. I can speak for them.
:36:19
You can buy my freedom
and smuggle me out of Rome?
:36:23
To what end?
:36:26
Get me outside the city walls.
:36:28
Have fresh horses ready
to take me to Ostia.
:36:30
My army is encamped there.
:36:33
By nightfall of the second day,
I shall return at the head of 5,000 men.
:36:36
But the legions all have
new commanders...
:36:38
Loyal to Commodus.
:36:39
Let my men see me alive and you
shall see where their loyalties lie.
:36:42
This is madness.
:36:45
No Roman army has entered the capital
in a hundred years.
:36:48
I will not trade
one dictatorship for another!
:36:50
The time for half measures
and talk is over, Senator.
:36:54
And after your glorious coup,
what then?
:36:58
You'll take your 5,000 warriors
and leave?
:37:01
I will leave.
:37:04
The soldiers will stay
for your protection...
:37:06
under the command of the senate.
:37:07
So...
:37:09
once all of Rome is yours,
you'll just give it back to the people?
:37:14
Tell me why.
:37:21
Because that was the last wish
of a dying man.
:37:27
I will kill Commodus.
:37:31
The fate of Rome
I leave to you.
:37:35
Marcus Aurelius trusted you.
:37:39
His daughter trusts you.
:37:45
I will trust you.
:37:47
But we have little time.
:37:49
Give me two days...
:37:52
and I will buy your freedom.
:37:55
And you...
:37:57
you stay alive...
