Signora Veronica Franco...
:31:26
...I hereby summon you to appear before
the tribunal of the Holy Inquisition.
:31:33
You have no jurisdiction here, Senator.
I speak for the Church.
:31:52
The Inquisition?
:31:54
In Venice?
:31:55
We have 56,000 dead.
:31:58
The living want answers. They may be
wrong answers, but they want them.
:32:02
Be glad the bastards
aren't burning us out.
:32:04
You can stop it!
:32:07
If the doge came out in defense
of a notorious courtesan...
:32:11
Now she's notorious?
Before she was a national asset.
:32:15
It would topple the government.
:32:17
These are grim times, Senator.
:32:23
You're an elected official.
:32:24
You cannot refuse your office.
:32:27
Then you compel me
to condone these proceedings.
:32:30
Am I mistaken, or is Venice
still a free republic?
