LUCILLA: I have been living
in a prison of fear every day...
:26:16
because my son is heir to the throne.

He must die.

GAIUS: Quintus and the Praetorians
would simply seize control for themselves.
:26:33
No. Cut off the head
and the snake cannot strike.
:26:36
GRACCHUS: Lucilla, Gaius is right.
:26:39
Until we can neutralise the Praetorians,
we can achieve nothing.
:26:44
So we do nothing?
:26:46
GRACCHUS: No, child. We keep our counsel.
:26:49
We prepare.
:26:51
As long as the people support him,
we are voices without steel.
:26:57
We are air.
:27:01
GRACCHUS: But with every day that passes,
he makes enemies.
:27:04
One day,
he'll have more enemies than friends.
:27:07
And on that day, we will act.
:27:10
Then we will strike.
:27:13
But until then...
:27:16
we are docile.
:27:18
We are obedient.
:27:21
And we are treacherous.

MAN: Come on!

MAN: All right, that's enough.
