:16:02
which has a very unusual method
of attracting its prey.
:16:06
It will lie at the bottom of the ocean
as if wounded.
:16:10
Then its enemies will approach...
:16:13
and yet it will lie quite still.
:16:16
And then its enemies
will take little bites of it...
:16:20
and yet it remains still.
:16:26
So...
:16:29
we will lie still...
:16:31
and let our enemies come to us and nibble.
:16:35
Have every senator followed.
:16:54
Cicero, my old friend. I thought perhaps
I'd seen you for the last time.
:16:58
CICERO: I thought you were dead.
MAXIMUS: Close.
:17:01
- How long have the men been in Ostia?
- All winter.
:17:04
- And how do they look?
- Fat and bored.
:17:08
MAXIMUS: Who's in command?
CICERO: Some fool from Rome.
:17:12
How soon do you think
they could be ready to fight?
:17:14
For you, tomorrow.
:17:17
I need you to do something for me.
:17:24
ACTOR: Come, see, witness.
:17:25
If you haven't been in the arena,
you can see the show here.
:17:28
Giant Maximus
is defeating our emperor, Commodus.
:17:32
What are we to do?
He's just defying everyone...
:17:34
by doing this to him, they do...
:17:37
My goodness!
:17:39
[Crowd laughing]
:17:40
ACTOR: He got him, he's defeated.
MAN: Give way!
:17:44
[Tense instrumental music]
:17:50
My lady? I served your father at Vindobona.
:17:52
SOLDIER: Back.
CICERO: My lady.
:17:54
I served your father at Vindobona.
:17:56
SOLDIER: Back!
:17:57
And I served General Maximus.
I serve him still.
