:42:02
l have none myself, none at all,
though my wife is a priestess of lsis.

:42:07
l'm sure the Christians look on my faith
as debauched superstition.

:42:11
- Don'tyou?
- The priestess of lsis knows what her faith is.

:42:14
- We believe that love rules the world.
- So do we.

:42:18
Then why are you such hypocrites? Why do
you pretend to be so pure, above temptation?

:42:23
You misunderstand, my dear.
When a Christian speaks of love, he means...

:42:26
l'm asking Demetrius.
:42:29
Jesus said ''Love ye one another as brothers.''
:42:34
Tell me,...
:42:35
..how do you manage
to love a woman as a brother?

:42:40
You don't.
:42:42
lt's a pity you can't tell me something about
the robe. lt might even mean your freedom.

:42:48
l can tell you nothing, sir.
:42:51
Albus.
:42:54
- Return this man to the gladiator school.
- Why, Claudius?

:42:57
You might have further questions for him.
:42:59
We could find useful employment for him
here among our bodyguards,...

:43:03
..at least until he's fit for the arena again.
:43:06
As you say, my dear.
:43:07
Besides, when he knows us better,
he might be willing to tell us more.

:43:10
Albus, feed him,
then return to me for instructions.

:43:14
Yes, my lady. Come.
:43:24
Have you exhausted
all other sources of your amusement?

:43:27
- But don'tyou find him interesting?
- He's a remarkable young man.

:43:30
He has something that Rome has lacked
since the early days of the republic.

:43:34
Something to believe in: faith.
:43:37
Our early conquests weakened it and
my family, we Caesars, killed and buried it.

:43:43
Strange, if the memory of a dead Jew
should bring it to life again.

:43:47
Messalina.
:43:49
Don't hurt him.
:43:51
Don't destroy what he has.
:43:53
- Are you going to interfere?
- No, my dear.

:43:57
l never interfere.
