:23:11
Your name is Demetrius?
:23:20
l'm from Corinth, like you.
:23:24
This is my first time here.
:23:26
- Do you always eat like this?
- l don't know.

:23:29
This is my first time, too.
:23:31
And you're fighting tomorrow!
:23:35
You must be a famous warrior.
:23:36
l'm a potter.
:23:40
Only a potter? And they're sending
you into the arena tomorrow?

:23:44
You must have done something awfully bad.
:23:46
l did.
:23:48
l'm a Christian.
:23:52
Strabo,...
:23:54
..when you were fighting in the arena
what did you think about the night before?

:23:58
lt doesn't pay a gladiator to think, my lady.
:24:01
When you caressed a woman,...
:24:04
..was your mind on her or on death?
:24:08
You don't expect to die.
You never think it'll be you that gets it.

:24:12
There's only one man down there
who knows he's going to die.

:24:15
You're wrong, Strabo.
When the time comes, he'll fight...

:24:19
..because he wants to live, like any other man.
:24:22
My lady, l tried to train him this afternoon.
He wouldn't make a move to defend himself.

:24:27
And he was a warrior once.
:24:29
He was brought to Rome
as a prisoner of war, but he won't fight.

:24:32
Why, you...!
:24:40
- All right, you're out of the game. Get back.
- He's out. Come on, whose throw?

:24:44
- Mine. Let's go.
- Throwthe dice.

:24:46
Watch this one.
:24:48
(laughter)
:24:50
The stakes must be high.
:24:53
They're gambling for a longer life. The winner
gets me for his opponent tomorrow.

:24:59
Venus. l threw Venus.
