COMMODUS: Where have you been?
:24:43
COMMODUS: I sent for you.
:24:46
Please, brother.
:24:53
What's troubling you?
:24:57
Does Gracchus have a new lover?
:25:01
LUCILLA: I don't know.
:25:04
I thought you'd seen him.
:25:07
COMMODUS: He infects everyone
like a putrid fever.
:25:11
For the health of Rome,
the Senate must be bled.
:25:15
And he will bleed, too.
:25:18
Very soon.
:25:20
But not tonight.
:25:36
COMMODUS: Do you remember
what our father said once?
:25:41
"It's a dream...
:25:44
"a frightful dream...
:25:48
"life is."
:25:52
Do you think that's true?
:25:55
I don't know.
