:43:04
Even a dead god
cannot rewrite his will.
:43:07
Antony did present
Caesarion's claims to the Senate.
:43:10
He kept that much of his promise.
:43:13
And he will keep the rest of it.
:43:15
After almost three years
since Caesar's death...
:43:18
...more than a year
since Philippi?
:43:20
Antony will come. He will need Egypt.
:43:24
Egypt is you.
:43:26
That's what I meant, of course.
Antony will need me.
:43:36
Finances! My head hurts
when you talk of money.
:43:38
Change the subject.
:43:40
All right. News from Rome.
:43:44
Octavian has forced Lepidus
out of his command and into exile.
:43:51
I wish I hadn't...
I wish I had not drunk so much today.
:43:56
So do I.
:43:58
Do I trouble you, Rufio?
:44:01
Yes, you do.
:44:05
I'll wager Caesar was never befuddled
by wine. Nothing befuddled him.
:44:10
The campaign against Parthia
won't be easy.
:44:12
- How many legions have we left?
- It's hard to tell.
:44:15
- So many desertions.
- Desertions?
:44:19
They haven't been paid in months.
:44:23
You remember when
we started into Greece?
:44:25
I lived with them, ate with them.
I was one of them.
:44:29
They seem distant to me now,
as if they were a memory.
:44:36
We must find the gold to pay them...
:44:39
...the wheat to feed them,
supplies, ships, armor.
:44:43
And where do you suggest
we look for all these?
:44:46
- I thought perhaps further to the east.
- Syria?
:44:50
- Perhaps more to the south.
- Ethiopia?
:44:53
To the north...
:44:54
- I forbid her mention!
- I didn't.
:44:56
I won't crawl to her!
Why hasn't she offered assistance?
:44:59
- She may not know.
- She knows everything.
