2:00:00
I need a few moments
ofthe commander's time.
2:00:03
Will you eхcuse us?
2:00:09
I hearyou've taken a house
in the fourth ward.
2:00:14
Not a very splendid house either.
2:00:17
And you feasted 1 1 ,000 plebeians
in the fiield of Mars.
2:00:19
It scarcely could've
been called a feast.
2:00:23
For 200 years, your family
and mine have been members...
2:00:25
ofthe Equestrian Order
and the Patrician Party.
2:00:28
Servants and rulers of Rome.
2:00:31
Why have you left us
for Gracchus and the mob?
2:00:33
I've left no one,
least ofall Rome.
2:00:36
But this much I've learned
from Gracchus: Rome is the mob.
2:00:40
No!
2:00:42
Rome is an eternal thought
in the mind of God.
2:00:46
I had no idea
you'd grown religious.
2:00:48
That doesn't matter.
2:00:50
Ifthere were no gods at all,
I'd revere them.
2:00:53
Ifthere were no Rome,
I'd dream of her...
2:00:56
as I want you to do.
2:00:59
I want you to come back
to your own kind.
2:01:02
I beg you to.
2:01:05
Is it me you want
or is it the garrison?
2:01:08
Both. Tell me frankly.
2:01:11
Ifyou were I, would you
take the fiield against Spartacus?
2:01:14
- Ofcourse.
- Why?
2:01:16
We have no other choice
ifwe're to save Rome.
2:01:19
Caesar!
2:01:21
Which Rome?
2:01:22
Theirs...
2:01:24
or ours?
2:01:29
You know Gracchus
is my friend.
2:01:33
I won't betray him.
2:01:36
Caesar.
2:01:42
Which is worse: to betray a friend
or to betray Rome herself?
2:01:44
My dear Crassus,
I face no such choice.
2:01:46
You will,
sooner than you think.
2:01:51
Good afternoon, Crassus.
I've been looking foryou all day.
2:01:54
Your new master.
2:01:58
The senate's been in session all day
over this business ofSpartacus.
