:41:01
Leonidas, the men are ready.
:41:05
Agathon, the law allows me to take 300 men.
:41:09
Dismiss all those with no living sons
and replace them with volunteers who have.
:41:14
I don't want any Spartan family to die out.
:41:38
- Phylon!
- Ellas!
:41:47
- Why are you here?
- Because I love you.
:41:50
There is nothing to love now.
I've been rejected by my own people.
:41:54
I have no honour, no country.
:41:56
- No name, no home. I'm an outcast.
- I, too, am an outcast.
:41:59
I've left my father's house and I shall not
return unless you come with me.
:42:05
Sparta does not want me.
:42:08
I'm ashamed of you. What if the king
has refused to take you with him?
:42:13
You are a free man and a soldier.
:42:16
Prove it to him and he will take you back.
:42:20
- How can I prove it?
- Surely not by killing yourself.
:42:24
Look.
:42:28
- My shield.
- Yes. Your shield.
:42:30
You left it behind. Did you forget the words
my aunt spoke giving it to you?
:42:36
"Victory or death. "
:42:39
Take this shield.
Follow our soldiers.
:42:43
Show them that you are a man and a Spartan.
:42:47
And I shall be there watching you.
:42:51
Look there.
