1:04:01
...I wanted you to hear...
- That my husband has married Cleopatra.

1:04:06
There's some fresh wine.
One of your many favorites.

1:04:12
The ceremony, according to vicious
gossip, was in the Egyptian religion.

1:04:16
Even if true, that can't be
taken seriously.

1:04:19
During which he was formally
declared an Egyptian god.

1:04:23
Officially divine, at last.
1:04:26
That must have pleased Caesar.
1:04:28
Calpurnia, we know Caesar, you and I.
1:04:32
This so-called marriage
has no validity under Roman law.

1:04:35
There must be political purpose.
1:04:37
Perhaps a symbolic ceremony
to ratify our bond with Egypt.

1:04:40
Perhaps merely
indulging some barbaric custom.

1:04:44
You've been loyal and kind.
1:04:46
You came as quickly
as you could.

1:04:49
Unhappily, vicious gossip
travels even faster than you...

1:04:53
...and the truth.
1:04:55
Have you heard, for instance, that
Cleopatra is carrying Caesar's child?

1:05:01
Yes, Antony.
1:05:03
We know him...
1:05:05
...you and I.
1:05:31
There shall be...
1:05:33
There shall be...
1:05:35
...Rome.
1:05:37
Mighty and alone and unloved.
1:05:39
A mistress.
1:05:41
A mistress shall raise thee again
from earth to heaven...

1:05:45
...and all the world shall know
a golden age of justice and of love.

1:05:52
A son shall be born to Isis!
1:05:55
A son shall be born to Isis!
1:05:58
Rome shall know him in cloth of gold.
