1
00:00:07,049 --> 00:00:11,554
( Theme music plays )

2
00:00:23,107 --> 00:00:25,610
( Distant cheering )

3
00:00:36,579 --> 00:00:39,624
( Crowd chanting faintly )
Kill kill kill!

4
00:00:45,338 --> 00:00:47,340
( Rumbling )

5
00:00:48,966 --> 00:00:50,968
( Sand pattering )

6
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,642
( Timbers thudding )

7
00:01:05,942 --> 00:01:07,985
( Cheering intensifies )

8
00:01:09,487 --> 00:01:11,030
( Metal blows ringing )

9
00:01:12,031 --> 00:01:14,033
( Combatants grunting )

10
00:01:22,041 --> 00:01:24,418
( Chuckles )

11
00:01:33,970 --> 00:01:36,264
( Roars )

12
00:01:44,647 --> 00:01:46,232
Come on!

13
00:01:51,570 --> 00:01:53,239
Yeah!

14
00:01:56,742 --> 00:01:58,202
( Laughs )

15
00:02:02,206 --> 00:02:04,292
( Blood pattering )

16
00:02:27,106 --> 00:02:29,608
( Shouting, clamoring )

17
00:02:31,319 --> 00:02:33,112
Oh, what do you know about it?

18
00:02:33,279 --> 00:02:34,279
Be gone!

19
00:02:34,405 --> 00:02:37,116
Hold your fucking tongues!

20
00:02:38,367 --> 00:02:40,619
Let the Roman have his say!

21
00:02:42,663 --> 00:02:44,498
Thrace and the republic

22
00:02:44,665 --> 00:02:46,625
have known their differences.

23
00:02:46,792 --> 00:02:49,086
We've not always been
as brothers.

24
00:02:49,253 --> 00:02:52,757
But let us put aside
such matters,

25
00:02:52,923 --> 00:02:55,343
uniting in just cause.

26
00:02:55,509 --> 00:02:57,470
You pushed your way
into our land

27
00:02:57,636 --> 00:03:00,681
and now you stand
asking for our help,

28
00:03:00,848 --> 00:03:03,976
- your hand extended?
- Men: Yeah!

29
00:03:04,143 --> 00:03:06,270
I extend no hand.

30
00:03:06,437 --> 00:03:08,647
I'm here merely to inform.

31
00:03:08,814 --> 00:03:11,317
Mithridates and his Greeks

32
00:03:11,484 --> 00:03:14,111
attack from the east
encroaching from the black sea.

33
00:03:14,278 --> 00:03:16,447
Far removed from our villages!

34
00:03:16,614 --> 00:03:18,115
True.

35
00:03:18,282 --> 00:03:19,950
But the getae

36
00:03:20,117 --> 00:03:22,286
take advantage
of the distraction.

37
00:03:22,453 --> 00:03:25,122
Their barbarian hordes
amass to the north,

38
00:03:25,289 --> 00:03:29,460
barely half a week's march
to your villages.

39
00:03:29,627 --> 00:03:32,004
- How many?
- Thousands.

40
00:03:32,171 --> 00:03:35,466
( Men clamoring )

41
00:03:35,633 --> 00:03:37,802
Align yourselves with Rome,

42
00:03:37,968 --> 00:03:39,845
pledge your service
to the auxiliary

43
00:03:40,012 --> 00:03:41,764
and join us in our campaign!

44
00:03:41,931 --> 00:03:43,808
- To what end?
- ( Clamoring continues )

45
00:03:43,974 --> 00:03:46,143
To what end?!

46
00:03:49,146 --> 00:03:53,025
- Victory.
- And how is it to be measured?

47
00:03:53,192 --> 00:03:56,028
The getae have raided
our villages in the past,

48
00:03:56,195 --> 00:03:57,988
- raped our women...
- Men: Yeah!

49
00:03:58,155 --> 00:03:59,573
- Killed our children.
- Men: Yeah!

50
00:03:59,740 --> 00:04:01,992
Each time we have
pushed them back

51
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:03,702
only to see them return.

52
00:04:03,869 --> 00:04:05,496
Elder: He speaks out of turn,

53
00:04:05,663 --> 00:04:07,873
yet the truth falls
from his mouth.

54
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,418
If we are to align with Rome,

55
00:04:10,584 --> 00:04:13,504
the purpose must be clear...

56
00:04:15,965 --> 00:04:19,593
The getae dead, all of them.

57
00:04:24,473 --> 00:04:26,350
Dead.

58
00:04:26,517 --> 00:04:28,561
- All of them.
- ( Men cheering, clamoring )

59
00:04:44,493 --> 00:04:47,371
The council has decided.

60
00:04:49,123 --> 00:04:51,167
We go to war.

61
00:04:52,793 --> 00:04:55,045
I've asked the gods
to bless your sword.

62
00:04:59,467 --> 00:05:01,343
Once the getae are wiped
from our lands

63
00:05:01,510 --> 00:05:03,350
there'll be no reason
to ever pick it up again.

64
00:05:03,471 --> 00:05:05,347
( Scoffs )

65
00:05:05,514 --> 00:05:07,850
What would my husband
do without it in his hands?

66
00:05:09,602 --> 00:05:12,396
Grow crops, raise goats...

67
00:05:14,273 --> 00:05:16,192
Make children.

68
00:05:23,699 --> 00:05:25,493
You would fight no more?

69
00:05:25,659 --> 00:05:27,244
Forever...

70
00:05:27,411 --> 00:05:29,455
To be by your side.

71
00:05:37,796 --> 00:05:39,590
How soon do you march?

72
00:05:39,757 --> 00:05:41,759
First light.

73
00:05:46,514 --> 00:05:48,390
Then come to bed.

74
00:05:48,557 --> 00:05:51,101
If one night
is all we have left,

75
00:05:51,268 --> 00:05:53,437
I shall make the most of it.

76
00:06:28,514 --> 00:06:30,516
Be strong.

77
00:06:40,150 --> 00:06:42,528
I woke expecting
my wife beside me.

78
00:06:43,696 --> 00:06:45,364
She Rose early to pray...

79
00:06:48,075 --> 00:06:49,743
That her husband
would stay with her.

80
00:06:51,370 --> 00:06:53,205
I thought we were in agreement.

81
00:06:53,372 --> 00:06:54,873
- We were.
- Were?

82
00:06:57,376 --> 00:06:59,128
The gods came to me last night

83
00:06:59,295 --> 00:07:01,213
in my sleep.

84
00:07:01,380 --> 00:07:02,965
What did they show you?

85
00:07:03,132 --> 00:07:05,134
My husband on his knees

86
00:07:05,301 --> 00:07:08,387
bowing before
a great red serpent,

87
00:07:08,554 --> 00:07:11,974
the life draining
from his veins.

88
00:07:13,517 --> 00:07:15,185
What meaning
did you take from it?

89
00:07:15,352 --> 00:07:17,229
A warning.

90
00:07:17,396 --> 00:07:19,231
If you go to war,

91
00:07:19,398 --> 00:07:22,067
you are destined for great
and unfortunate things.

92
00:07:26,905 --> 00:07:29,074
The getae worship
the mountain wolf.

93
00:07:30,284 --> 00:07:32,953
They place no faith in snakes.

94
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,080
It was just a dream.

95
00:07:36,415 --> 00:07:39,001
- And if it isn't?
- I gave my word, Sura.

96
00:07:39,168 --> 00:07:41,879
Blood and honor.

97
00:07:42,046 --> 00:07:44,548
It speaks to the man.

98
00:07:46,300 --> 00:07:50,054
Nothing will keep me
from returning to your arms...

99
00:07:50,220 --> 00:07:52,514
Not the getae,

100
00:07:52,681 --> 00:07:54,433
not the romans,

101
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,435
not the gods themselves.

102
00:07:56,602 --> 00:07:59,813
( Sighs )

103
00:07:59,980 --> 00:08:02,149
The nights grow so cold.

104
00:08:02,316 --> 00:08:04,443
What am I to do
without you in our bed?

105
00:08:07,863 --> 00:08:09,615
Lift your dress.

106
00:08:26,465 --> 00:08:29,051
Keep me close to your thighs.

107
00:08:29,218 --> 00:08:31,470
Thethought will warm us both.

108
00:08:50,364 --> 00:08:52,324
Kill them all.

109
00:08:54,118 --> 00:08:55,494
Foryou.

110
00:09:35,784 --> 00:09:37,911
( Yells battle cry )

111
00:09:42,374 --> 00:09:44,418
- ( Men grunting )
- ( Metallic ringing )

112
00:09:54,553 --> 00:09:56,680
Hold the line!

113
00:10:01,560 --> 00:10:04,104
I'll fuck your women!

114
00:10:04,271 --> 00:10:06,690
I'll fuck them all!

115
00:10:11,111 --> 00:10:13,530
Where the fuck are the romans?

116
00:10:19,328 --> 00:10:21,705
Show the cunts no mercy!

117
00:11:07,626 --> 00:11:10,212
Romans, forward!

118
00:11:10,379 --> 00:11:12,756
( Horns sounding )

119
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,136
Warrior: Where you going?

120
00:11:18,303 --> 00:11:20,389
Where are you small cocks
running off to?

121
00:11:20,556 --> 00:11:22,307
A little late!

122
00:11:22,474 --> 00:11:24,768
They'd just get in the way.

123
00:11:46,373 --> 00:11:48,375
( Quiet chatter )

124
00:11:53,672 --> 00:11:56,258
( Grumbles )

125
00:12:03,056 --> 00:12:04,892
My own shit would taste better.

126
00:12:05,058 --> 00:12:07,102
I cook what
they give us, drenis.

127
00:12:07,269 --> 00:12:10,772
Guts and bones while Glaber
and his romans feast on meat!

128
00:12:10,939 --> 00:12:12,816
We're the last to eat,

129
00:12:12,983 --> 00:12:14,943
the last to share in the spoils,

130
00:12:15,110 --> 00:12:18,614
but always the first to be sent
against those barbarian cunts!

131
00:12:20,490 --> 00:12:23,535
Maybe Legatus fucking Glaber
rolls out of his nice warm tent

132
00:12:23,702 --> 00:12:26,204
and finds these Thracian dogs
have returned to the wild...

133
00:12:26,371 --> 00:12:28,498
- Men: Yeah!
- ( Throat cleared )

134
00:12:28,665 --> 00:12:31,668
- ( Slurps )
- Something to add, little man?

135
00:12:31,835 --> 00:12:34,254
A word.

136
00:12:34,421 --> 00:12:36,048
Which word might that be?

137
00:12:36,214 --> 00:12:38,425
The one I gave the romans

138
00:12:38,592 --> 00:12:40,260
and my body and blood with it.

139
00:12:40,427 --> 00:12:42,679
We all did...
To push the getae back.

140
00:12:42,846 --> 00:12:44,431
We can defend our own lands!

141
00:12:44,598 --> 00:12:46,350
We gave our word.

142
00:12:46,516 --> 00:12:48,560
In my village

143
00:12:48,727 --> 00:12:50,354
such a thing
still bears meaning.

144
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,314
Your village?

145
00:12:52,481 --> 00:12:53,941
Is that why you're here?

146
00:12:54,107 --> 00:12:56,193
To defend your village?

147
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,339
Maybe you're trying to impress that
sweet taste you're always going on about

148
00:12:59,363 --> 00:13:01,406
- with stories of war.
- ( All chuckle)

149
00:13:06,870 --> 00:13:08,538
Ahh.

150
00:13:08,705 --> 00:13:10,749
Struck the Mark near, did I?

151
00:13:12,250 --> 00:13:15,545
"Words and honor"
my great fat ass.

152
00:13:15,712 --> 00:13:18,507
It all comes back round
to a pair of tits

153
00:13:18,674 --> 00:13:21,218
and a tight little hole.

154
00:13:25,472 --> 00:13:27,099
Men: Whoa!

155
00:13:31,561 --> 00:13:33,355
( Laughs )

156
00:13:49,037 --> 00:13:50,789
Man: The iegatus is here!

157
00:13:54,584 --> 00:13:58,422
The iegatus needs volunteers
to scout beyond the forward line.

158
00:13:59,798 --> 00:14:02,759
You, tactical report by sunrise.

159
00:14:02,926 --> 00:14:04,761
Or go without rations.

160
00:14:07,389 --> 00:14:09,224
"Please" would've done.

161
00:14:09,391 --> 00:14:11,601
We'll finish
this discussion later.

162
00:14:19,568 --> 00:14:21,361
(Grunts)

163
00:14:24,072 --> 00:14:26,283
And if we're dead?

164
00:14:26,450 --> 00:14:28,910
Then my boot will find your ass
in the afterlife.

165
00:14:29,077 --> 00:14:31,830
( Chuckles )

166
00:14:50,974 --> 00:14:52,350
( Squeals happily )

167
00:14:52,517 --> 00:14:54,436
( Growls )

168
00:15:01,651 --> 00:15:03,528
- Iliythia.
- What if I'd been an assassin?

169
00:15:03,695 --> 00:15:06,615
I'd be a widow.

170
00:15:06,782 --> 00:15:09,493
What's a respectful period of mourning
before I could remarry?

171
00:15:09,659 --> 00:15:12,579
You overstep.

172
00:15:12,746 --> 00:15:14,706
Women are forbidden
within the encampment.

173
00:15:14,873 --> 00:15:17,125
- I was discreet.
- Ha. You?

174
00:15:17,292 --> 00:15:19,544
Your man helped to whisk me
through the sentries

175
00:15:19,711 --> 00:15:22,714
after I threatened to run
naked through the camp

176
00:15:22,881 --> 00:15:26,093
screaming he laid his hands
on the wife of the iegatus.

177
00:15:33,141 --> 00:15:34,851
Does your father
know you're in thrace?

178
00:15:35,018 --> 00:15:36,686
Please.

179
00:15:36,853 --> 00:15:39,689
He's too busy colluding
with the other corpses in the senate.

180
00:15:39,856 --> 00:15:41,483
He thinks I'm still lounging

181
00:15:41,650 --> 00:15:43,735
at the villa in Capua.

182
00:15:43,902 --> 00:15:47,030
Far too arid. It hasn't rained there
since last forever.

183
00:15:48,532 --> 00:15:50,700
You should've written.

184
00:15:50,867 --> 00:15:52,619
You would've told me
not to come.

185
00:15:52,786 --> 00:15:54,996
I'm in the middle of a war.

186
00:15:55,163 --> 00:15:57,207
I bought you a gift...

187
00:16:00,919 --> 00:16:02,212
Something to remind you of Rome.

188
00:16:02,379 --> 00:16:04,256
Sesti wine.

189
00:16:04,422 --> 00:16:06,216
Let me fill up your cup

190
00:16:06,383 --> 00:16:09,594
while you tell me
about your little war.

191
00:16:10,804 --> 00:16:12,305
It's too brief a tale.

192
00:16:12,472 --> 00:16:15,767
Mithridates and his army
of Greek whores

193
00:16:15,934 --> 00:16:18,270
press the legion in the east
by the black sea.

194
00:16:18,436 --> 00:16:22,691
Here I sit protecting
the northern border

195
00:16:22,858 --> 00:16:24,317
of the land of piss and shit

196
00:16:24,484 --> 00:16:26,570
from simple barbarian raiders.

197
00:16:27,863 --> 00:16:29,656
Mithridates.

198
00:16:29,823 --> 00:16:31,283
A victory against him

199
00:16:31,449 --> 00:16:33,410
would have your name
on every Roman's tongue.

200
00:16:33,577 --> 00:16:36,454
Cotta leads the assault.

201
00:16:36,621 --> 00:16:38,248
He steals your laurels.

202
00:16:38,415 --> 00:16:40,667
He's the consul.
Theft is his privilege.

203
00:16:41,835 --> 00:16:44,588
Father will be disappointed,

204
00:16:44,754 --> 00:16:47,591
for he secured this position
for you to shine.

205
00:16:47,757 --> 00:16:50,302
And here you sit eclipsed.

206
00:16:50,468 --> 00:16:52,679
I am doing what I can.

207
00:16:54,973 --> 00:16:57,934
( Giggles ) Of course you are.

208
00:16:58,101 --> 00:17:00,937
I just wish you were back home.

209
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,357
Father's planning a full day

210
00:17:04,524 --> 00:17:06,818
of spectacles and gladiators.

211
00:17:06,985 --> 00:17:08,528
It's the talk of Capua.

212
00:17:08,695 --> 00:17:11,406
I hadn't realized
elections were nearing.

213
00:17:11,573 --> 00:17:13,909
Never too early to campaign.

214
00:17:15,619 --> 00:17:17,287
If things were heading better,

215
00:17:17,454 --> 00:17:19,664
you could be by his side.

216
00:17:23,126 --> 00:17:25,295
So serious.

217
00:17:25,462 --> 00:17:27,130
Bad for the humours.

218
00:17:34,554 --> 00:17:36,514
Come.

219
00:17:36,681 --> 00:17:39,726
You haven't tasted
your gift yet.

220
00:17:57,577 --> 00:17:59,579
( Both moaning )

221
00:18:19,266 --> 00:18:21,268
(Gasping )

222
00:18:37,242 --> 00:18:39,744
- They're breaking camp.
- Frightened little gashes,

223
00:18:39,911 --> 00:18:42,497
running away with their cocks
between their cheeks.

224
00:18:44,249 --> 00:18:46,918
Retreat would take them
beyond the mountains to the north.

225
00:18:47,085 --> 00:18:50,213
- Their torches bear west.
- West?

226
00:18:50,380 --> 00:18:52,900
They're swinging around to attack
the villages below the pass...

227
00:18:54,884 --> 00:18:56,052
Our villages.

228
00:18:57,220 --> 00:18:59,431
Slippery little cunts.

229
00:19:01,099 --> 00:19:02,934
If they break for
the mountain pass here

230
00:19:03,101 --> 00:19:06,062
it will take them four days at most
to reach the villages below.

231
00:19:06,229 --> 00:19:08,606
Food, supplies, women...

232
00:19:08,773 --> 00:19:10,233
All unprotected.

233
00:19:12,777 --> 00:19:14,946
It's a simple thing to be turned

234
00:19:15,113 --> 00:19:17,240
in the mountains at night.

235
00:19:18,366 --> 00:19:19,576
Perhaps I should send a Roman

236
00:19:19,743 --> 00:19:21,411
to properly assess
the situation.

237
00:19:21,578 --> 00:19:23,997
Send the gods themselves.
They'll report the same.

238
00:19:26,624 --> 00:19:28,335
Dismissed.

239
00:19:28,501 --> 00:19:30,378
If we march by midday,
we can easily...

240
00:19:30,545 --> 00:19:32,756
Dismissed!

241
00:19:49,647 --> 00:19:51,816
The barbarians head west.

242
00:19:51,983 --> 00:19:53,360
So it appears.

243
00:19:53,526 --> 00:19:55,779
Further yet from mithridates
and the Greeks

244
00:19:55,945 --> 00:19:58,156
and the glory you deserve.

245
00:20:01,826 --> 00:20:03,870
Return to Capua.

246
00:20:05,872 --> 00:20:07,791
And my father?

247
00:20:07,957 --> 00:20:11,669
How will he measure the man
he so blessed with his daughter?

248
00:20:16,174 --> 00:20:18,009
A colossus

249
00:20:18,176 --> 00:20:21,388
towering above
the enemies of Rome.

250
00:20:27,185 --> 00:20:29,896
Pompous arrogant
Roman boy-lover.

251
00:20:30,063 --> 00:20:32,148
All but called us liars!

252
00:20:32,315 --> 00:20:34,442
- How are you certain?
- You heard what he said.

253
00:20:34,609 --> 00:20:36,277
"Turned in the mountains
at night"...

254
00:20:36,444 --> 00:20:38,672
- Like he's speaking to children.
- No no, about the boys.

255
00:20:38,696 --> 00:20:41,449
- How do you know he favors them?
- Now who's having a laugh?

256
00:20:41,616 --> 00:20:43,952
There's this tickle
in the back of my throat.

257
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,579
- The cock glaberjust forced down it.
- Fuck Legatus.

258
00:20:46,746 --> 00:20:48,346
If he wants to send
his own men, let him.

259
00:20:48,498 --> 00:20:50,059
Won't change the direction
the getae move.

260
00:20:50,083 --> 00:20:52,544
Glaber is the most
dangerous kind of fool...

261
00:20:53,795 --> 00:20:55,839
- One with a title.
- True,

262
00:20:56,005 --> 00:20:59,217
but perhaps he has better sense
when it comes to wine.

263
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,804
- You stole his wine?
- I only borrowed it.

264
00:21:02,971 --> 00:21:06,391
Plan to piss it all back shortly.
( Laughs )

265
00:21:25,243 --> 00:21:27,245
( Horns sounding )

266
00:21:31,249 --> 00:21:33,710
- Up.
- ( Groans ) Fuck your mother.

267
00:21:33,877 --> 00:21:37,839
- The romans sound the call.
- Fuck the romans and their fucking horns.

268
00:21:38,006 --> 00:21:39,883
Join us, you drunken goat.

269
00:21:40,049 --> 00:21:42,343
The iegatus
has gained his senses.

270
00:21:42,510 --> 00:21:45,847
Is there any wine left?

271
00:21:46,014 --> 00:21:47,974
Your belly holds the sum.

272
00:21:48,141 --> 00:21:49,934
I may return
the balance presently.

273
00:21:50,101 --> 00:21:52,353
How far to the mouth
of the pass?

274
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,689
Three days by foot

275
00:21:54,856 --> 00:21:56,691
if we march with meaning.

276
00:21:56,858 --> 00:21:59,652
Drink would spur my intent.

277
00:22:01,279 --> 00:22:03,114
My village is only
a ways further west.

278
00:22:03,281 --> 00:22:06,326
- My wine is yours after we...
- Man: West?

279
00:22:06,493 --> 00:22:08,703
We march east
to challenge mithridates.

280
00:22:09,871 --> 00:22:11,331
Byzo.

281
00:22:11,498 --> 00:22:13,476
Did the iegatus send his own men
to scout the front?

282
00:22:13,500 --> 00:22:15,001
How the fuck should I know?

283
00:22:15,168 --> 00:22:18,087
They blow their fucking horns,
a Roman dog barks

284
00:22:18,254 --> 00:22:19,923
and the gods shit on me.

285
00:22:20,089 --> 00:22:22,425
Welcome to
the fucking auxiliary.

286
00:22:35,855 --> 00:22:37,857
A word, Legatus.

287
00:22:38,024 --> 00:22:39,901
Move to formation!

288
00:22:40,068 --> 00:22:41,945
We advance east!

289
00:22:42,111 --> 00:22:45,323
Sure you mean west
as the getae advance.

290
00:22:45,490 --> 00:22:48,910
Mithridates and the Greeks
are of pressing concern.

291
00:22:50,328 --> 00:22:52,413
You have allied
yourself with Rome.

292
00:22:52,580 --> 00:22:55,625
I am its body and voice.

293
00:22:55,792 --> 00:22:59,546
We march east to the black sea.

294
00:22:59,712 --> 00:23:01,631
Fall into formation.

295
00:23:05,802 --> 00:23:07,053
Fall into formation!

296
00:23:14,602 --> 00:23:17,730
You would defy an order
from your iegatus?

297
00:23:17,897 --> 00:23:20,567
I gave my word to defend
against the getae,

298
00:23:20,733 --> 00:23:23,736
not to march east
to attack mithridates.

299
00:23:23,903 --> 00:23:27,115
You will march
where you are commanded!

300
00:23:35,999 --> 00:23:37,542
Kill them!

301
00:23:39,210 --> 00:23:41,254
Wait wait!

302
00:23:45,717 --> 00:23:46,926
( Yells )

303
00:24:01,733 --> 00:24:04,569
- Ha!
- Throw, damn you!

304
00:24:20,877 --> 00:24:23,880
What have you done,
you stupid shit?

305
00:24:24,047 --> 00:24:26,466
He did what he had to.

306
00:24:26,633 --> 00:24:29,677
Break and go your way,
west if your lives are there.

307
00:24:29,844 --> 00:24:32,096
If not, I could give a fuck.

308
00:24:32,263 --> 00:24:33,263
( Growls )

309
00:24:34,432 --> 00:24:35,725
What of the iegatus?

310
00:24:38,936 --> 00:24:40,605
Leave him in the mud.

311
00:24:43,149 --> 00:24:45,193
(Grunts)

312
00:25:12,261 --> 00:25:14,263
( Heavy footsteps )

313
00:25:27,610 --> 00:25:29,070
( Cries out )

314
00:25:30,738 --> 00:25:32,782
( Screaming, yelling )

315
00:25:50,425 --> 00:25:52,427
(Grunts)

316
00:26:03,730 --> 00:26:05,523
( Yells )

317
00:26:43,770 --> 00:26:45,271
( Loud squelch )

318
00:27:02,580 --> 00:27:05,374
( Distant cries )

319
00:27:05,541 --> 00:27:07,543
The village.

320
00:27:07,710 --> 00:27:10,713
( Screaming, wailing )

321
00:27:17,762 --> 00:27:21,057
We have to go. Now.

322
00:27:33,986 --> 00:27:35,988
( Cricket chirping )

323
00:27:37,323 --> 00:27:39,200
( Bird calls )

324
00:27:43,621 --> 00:27:45,623
They haven't followed.

325
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,934
You were right.

326
00:28:05,101 --> 00:28:07,144
Inever should have left.

327
00:28:10,147 --> 00:28:11,858
You had given your word.

328
00:28:12,024 --> 00:28:14,652
The fault lies with the romans
in breaking theirs.

329
00:28:19,365 --> 00:28:21,033
You're hurt.

330
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,077
- It's nothing.
- Let me see.

331
00:28:23,244 --> 00:28:25,204
- Sura.
- ( Sternly ) Let me see.

332
00:28:27,164 --> 00:28:29,333
Your tone is disquieting.

333
00:28:29,500 --> 00:28:30,835
You should be used to it by now.

334
00:28:39,051 --> 00:28:41,053
I'm all right.

335
00:28:42,638 --> 00:28:44,640
Of course you are.

336
00:28:44,807 --> 00:28:46,601
Hold still.

337
00:28:48,561 --> 00:28:50,229
( Cloth tears )

338
00:29:01,073 --> 00:29:02,992
It's gone, isn't it...

339
00:29:04,285 --> 00:29:05,912
The village...

340
00:29:06,078 --> 00:29:08,331
Everyone we knew?

341
00:29:10,333 --> 00:29:12,835
We'll move south.

342
00:29:14,378 --> 00:29:16,380
I had people there once.

343
00:29:18,341 --> 00:29:20,051
The getae won't
venture that far,

344
00:29:20,217 --> 00:29:22,845
not to the risk of thinning
their numbers.

345
00:29:26,223 --> 00:29:28,643
And the romans?

346
00:29:31,729 --> 00:29:34,732
Their concern rests against
mithridates to the east.

347
00:29:38,486 --> 00:29:41,238
South it is.

348
00:29:46,744 --> 00:29:49,163
I wish I had been
a thousand men.

349
00:30:03,886 --> 00:30:05,888
You did what you could.

350
00:30:07,139 --> 00:30:10,142
You came back for me...

351
00:30:12,770 --> 00:30:15,189
Knowing it could mean your life.

352
00:30:22,446 --> 00:30:24,657
There is no life without you.

353
00:32:05,007 --> 00:32:06,258
( Horse snorts )

354
00:32:09,887 --> 00:32:12,848
( Screaming )

355
00:32:40,918 --> 00:32:42,670
My tribune dead,

356
00:32:42,837 --> 00:32:44,088
half the auxiliary deserted,

357
00:32:44,255 --> 00:32:46,549
now orders recalling
me to Rome...

358
00:32:46,715 --> 00:32:49,718
- All from your hand.
- I own my actions,

359
00:32:49,885 --> 00:32:53,097
- but my wife...
- Has been condemned to slavery,

360
00:32:53,264 --> 00:32:55,599
courtesy of her husband.

361
00:32:55,766 --> 00:32:59,145
No no no!

362
00:33:00,855 --> 00:33:03,566
The shadow of Rome is vast.

363
00:33:03,732 --> 00:33:05,693
And you, Thracian,

364
00:33:05,860 --> 00:33:09,738
will die under it.

365
00:33:18,122 --> 00:33:21,333
( Cacophony )

366
00:33:33,554 --> 00:33:35,806
Good of you to join us.

367
00:33:35,973 --> 00:33:37,533
Thought you were dead
there for a while.

368
00:33:37,683 --> 00:33:41,395
He smells dead. Stupid fuck.

369
00:33:41,562 --> 00:33:46,150
- Argh! Ahh!
- Drenis: Easy easy!

370
00:33:46,317 --> 00:33:48,485
You've been out for days.

371
00:33:48,652 --> 00:33:54,617
- ( Waves crashing )
- We're at sea?

372
00:33:54,783 --> 00:33:57,953
Upon the adriatic,

373
00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:59,371
bound for Capua.

374
00:33:59,538 --> 00:34:01,415
Sura.

375
00:34:02,750 --> 00:34:06,420
- Your woman?
- The romans took her.

376
00:34:09,715 --> 00:34:11,258
Best to forget her then.

377
00:34:11,425 --> 00:34:13,427
( Waves crashing )

378
00:34:42,665 --> 00:34:44,667
( Gasps )

379
00:34:48,963 --> 00:34:51,090
What if I'd been an assassin?

380
00:34:51,257 --> 00:34:54,218
( Giggles ) Father's in town.

381
00:34:54,385 --> 00:34:57,304
- He'll be back shortly.
- How shortly?

382
00:34:58,430 --> 00:35:00,307
He's not very happy with you.

383
00:35:01,892 --> 00:35:05,437
- And his daughter?
- She missed her husband...

384
00:35:07,606 --> 00:35:10,943
But fears his reappearance
has come too soon.

385
00:35:14,822 --> 00:35:17,700
The games your father presents
the people of Capua...

386
00:35:17,866 --> 00:35:19,493
They begin tomorrow.

387
00:35:19,660 --> 00:35:22,913
- The feast is tonight?
- That's to his purpose in town.

388
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,791
I would have a word with him.

389
00:35:25,958 --> 00:35:30,087
It will take more than one
to regain his favor.

390
00:35:31,714 --> 00:35:33,215
The senate chamber
is full of whispers

391
00:35:33,382 --> 00:35:37,761
over your early return.

392
00:35:40,723 --> 00:35:43,142
Cheers of the crowd
will still their tongues.

393
00:35:43,309 --> 00:35:47,813
Cheers? How will you draw them,
short of victory?

394
00:35:47,980 --> 00:35:50,983
By giving them something
few have ever seen:

395
00:35:52,401 --> 00:35:55,612
Thracian blood
spilled in the arena.

396
00:35:55,779 --> 00:35:58,949
Win the hearts of the crowd...

397
00:35:59,116 --> 00:36:03,871
And the senate
will beg to follow.

398
00:36:04,038 --> 00:36:06,290
Man: Get out of my sight!

399
00:36:06,457 --> 00:36:08,417
Inbred shitwhores.

400
00:36:08,584 --> 00:36:11,086
I should sell the lot of you
to the mines.

401
00:36:11,253 --> 00:36:13,339
- Out!
- Father's returned.

402
00:36:13,505 --> 00:36:15,507
And in a fine state.

403
00:36:15,674 --> 00:36:17,885
If he refuses
to aid my intentions...

404
00:36:18,052 --> 00:36:20,304
He refuses his daughter nothing

405
00:36:20,471 --> 00:36:22,931
when pleaded with teary eye.

406
00:36:25,142 --> 00:36:28,729
( Music playing )

407
00:36:41,533 --> 00:36:44,036
( Guests applaud, cheer)

408
00:36:48,791 --> 00:36:50,584
Good citizens of Capua,

409
00:36:50,751 --> 00:36:52,628
revered guests,

410
00:36:52,795 --> 00:36:54,671
a debt of gratitude
for partaking

411
00:36:54,838 --> 00:36:57,883
in this celebration
of the family name Albinius.

412
00:36:58,050 --> 00:37:00,761
(Cheering ) Albinius! Albinius!

413
00:37:03,013 --> 00:37:06,558
Your attendance honors
the memory of my elders,

414
00:37:06,725 --> 00:37:09,686
gone too soon from
the realm of the living...

415
00:37:09,853 --> 00:37:11,939
And the joy of a daughter,

416
00:37:12,106 --> 00:37:14,691
yet so full of life.

417
00:37:14,858 --> 00:37:19,947
I repay your kindness
with gifts of water,

418
00:37:20,114 --> 00:37:23,242
carried from Rome where the gods
have seen fit to keep the drought at bay,

419
00:37:23,409 --> 00:37:28,038
and gifts of blood
to be spilled in the arena!

420
00:37:28,205 --> 00:37:32,376
( Guests cheer)

421
00:37:32,543 --> 00:37:35,379
Quintus Lentulus batiatus!

422
00:37:35,546 --> 00:37:39,133
- Step forward.
- ( Guests cheer, applaud )

423
00:37:47,599 --> 00:37:49,226
Present your gladiators.

424
00:37:52,646 --> 00:37:56,066
In honor of senator Albinius
and the people of Capua,

425
00:37:56,233 --> 00:37:59,903
I give you Barca,
the beast of carthage!

426
00:38:00,070 --> 00:38:03,031
( Guests cheers )

427
00:38:03,198 --> 00:38:08,036
Yet his ferocity pales
against the titan of the arena...

428
00:38:08,203 --> 00:38:10,831
The god of blood and sand!

429
00:38:10,998 --> 00:38:14,918
Crixus the undefeated Gaul!

430
00:38:18,797 --> 00:38:21,550
Gratitude to batiatus!

431
00:38:30,684 --> 00:38:35,314
And now to
Marcus Decius Solonius

432
00:38:35,481 --> 00:38:37,024
and his offerings!

433
00:38:37,191 --> 00:38:39,401
( Guests cheer)

434
00:38:43,405 --> 00:38:46,241
In honor of senator Albinius

435
00:38:46,408 --> 00:38:48,535
and the people of Capua,

436
00:38:48,702 --> 00:38:50,954
I give you six of my finest men!

437
00:38:51,121 --> 00:38:55,542
Behold ark adios,
scourge of Athens!

438
00:38:58,504 --> 00:39:00,464
Preening shit eater.

439
00:39:00,631 --> 00:39:03,133
A mockery to the profession.

440
00:39:03,300 --> 00:39:05,385
- A mockery is it?
- Oh, you disagree?

441
00:39:05,552 --> 00:39:07,137
Let it pass.

442
00:39:07,304 --> 00:39:09,598
We're guests of the senator.

443
00:39:09,765 --> 00:39:12,935
He's invited us to sit
in the pulvinus tomorrow.

444
00:39:13,101 --> 00:39:15,646
That's consolation.

445
00:39:15,812 --> 00:39:17,874
Only two of my men have been
retained to fight in tomorrow's games

446
00:39:17,898 --> 00:39:19,441
while Solonius
secures half a dozen

447
00:39:19,608 --> 00:39:22,611
of his ill-trained simians.

448
00:39:22,778 --> 00:39:26,573
( Sighs ) That man has fingers
in all the proper assholes.

449
00:39:26,740 --> 00:39:29,326
He wiggles them
and everyone shits gold.

450
00:39:29,493 --> 00:39:32,162
(Clapping )

451
00:39:32,329 --> 00:39:34,289
Gratitude to Solonius!

452
00:39:36,041 --> 00:39:40,128
Water and games
are distant praise for the city

453
00:39:40,295 --> 00:39:42,297
that has held the name
Albinius as its own.

454
00:39:42,464 --> 00:39:47,052
More is deserved!
And the gods have seen fit

455
00:39:47,219 --> 00:39:49,846
to deliver it in the form of my
daughter's husband...

456
00:39:50,013 --> 00:39:53,433
Legatus claudius Glaber...

457
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:55,185
- ( Guests cheer)
- Newly returned

458
00:39:55,352 --> 00:39:57,062
from the savage lands of thrace!

459
00:39:57,229 --> 00:40:00,566
( Guests cheer, applaud )

460
00:40:13,954 --> 00:40:17,791
More gifts for
the people of Capua!

461
00:40:17,958 --> 00:40:21,837
Six Thracian jackals!

462
00:40:22,004 --> 00:40:25,841
Deserters from the war
against the barbaric getae...

463
00:40:27,175 --> 00:40:32,347
To be executed ad gladium
in tomorrow's games!

464
00:40:32,514 --> 00:40:34,224
( Guests cheer, applaud )

465
00:40:34,391 --> 00:40:37,019
- Well?
- Hm!

466
00:40:45,777 --> 00:40:50,073
- He is well received.
- Ask favor for him again

467
00:40:50,240 --> 00:40:52,701
and your tears will
fall short of notice.

468
00:40:52,868 --> 00:40:57,664
Right. Now to more music
and drink! Hm!

469
00:40:57,831 --> 00:40:59,791
( Music plays )

470
00:41:10,594 --> 00:41:13,138
Thracians. Between those animals

471
00:41:13,305 --> 00:41:15,057
and Solonius's
inferior offerings,

472
00:41:15,223 --> 00:41:16,433
a mockery on all accounting.

473
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,143
Glaber mentions execution.

474
00:41:18,310 --> 00:41:19,412
Perhaps a word could
lend our men to the task.

475
00:41:19,436 --> 00:41:22,022
The position has been occupied.

476
00:41:22,189 --> 00:41:26,026
Good Solonius!
I was just marveling at your wares!

477
00:41:26,193 --> 00:41:28,028
Oh and I at yours.

478
00:41:28,195 --> 00:41:31,281
- Oh, you flatter.
- No, I appreciate.

479
00:41:31,448 --> 00:41:34,284
Good to lay eyes, old friend.

480
00:41:34,451 --> 00:41:36,495
I feared for a time
you would be excluded.

481
00:41:36,662 --> 00:41:40,248
Games absent batiatus?
A dawn without the sun.

482
00:41:40,415 --> 00:41:42,292
Ah, Crixus and Barca.

483
00:41:42,459 --> 00:41:44,836
Two fine entries.

484
00:41:45,003 --> 00:41:47,756
They should provide distraction
between the more important bouts.

485
00:41:50,467 --> 00:41:53,053
The senator beckons.

486
00:41:53,220 --> 00:41:56,056
If I miss you at the games
tomorrow, lucretia...

487
00:41:56,223 --> 00:41:58,576
Well it's unlikely. We've been
invited to sit in the pulvinus.

488
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,311
The pulvinus? With the senator?

489
00:42:01,478 --> 00:42:04,189
A great honor.

490
00:42:04,356 --> 00:42:06,233
I'll enjoy your company there.

491
00:42:09,903 --> 00:42:11,446
I shall witness his
heart on a day,

492
00:42:11,613 --> 00:42:13,657
parted from his chest.

493
00:42:13,824 --> 00:42:16,618
And I shall grip the knife.

494
00:42:59,244 --> 00:43:02,789
I've never beheld such sights.

495
00:43:02,956 --> 00:43:05,542
Nor will you again.

496
00:43:38,283 --> 00:43:41,745
( Crowd roars distantly )

497
00:43:43,371 --> 00:43:44,414
( Lock clatters )

498
00:44:14,903 --> 00:44:16,488
( Crowd roars )

499
00:44:34,631 --> 00:44:36,216
( Chuckles )

500
00:44:36,383 --> 00:44:39,052
( Yells )

501
00:44:50,397 --> 00:44:52,357
(Gurgling )

502
00:45:02,909 --> 00:45:05,495
- Gladiator: Ha ha!
- ( Crowd cheering )

503
00:45:34,482 --> 00:45:35,859
The crowd approves his gifts.

504
00:45:36,026 --> 00:45:38,069
As do we all.

505
00:45:38,236 --> 00:45:41,531
I've withheld something
of note for the last.

506
00:45:47,078 --> 00:45:49,080
( Trumpets sound )

507
00:45:53,710 --> 00:45:55,462
(Crowd murmurs)

508
00:46:06,514 --> 00:46:08,099
( Panting )

509
00:46:11,186 --> 00:46:13,855
Ready, Thracian cunt?

510
00:46:16,107 --> 00:46:17,233
( Gates open )

511
00:46:31,706 --> 00:46:33,249
Yaaah!

512
00:46:33,416 --> 00:46:35,502
( Crowd booing )

513
00:46:38,296 --> 00:46:40,298
( Crowd roars disapproval )

514
00:46:45,136 --> 00:46:46,596
The odds seem out of favor.

515
00:46:46,763 --> 00:46:50,266
This Thracian caused Rome
a great disservice, father.

516
00:46:50,433 --> 00:46:53,103
His cowardice
led to mass desertion.

517
00:46:53,269 --> 00:46:55,939
Is his life not ample repayment?

518
00:46:56,106 --> 00:46:58,817
He must be humiliated
in example.

519
00:46:58,984 --> 00:47:03,697
Solonius was kind enough to offer
his services in this act.

520
00:47:07,742 --> 00:47:08,910
( Crowd boos )

521
00:47:09,077 --> 00:47:11,413
( Sighs )

522
00:47:11,579 --> 00:47:12,622
Give the command.

523
00:47:50,535 --> 00:47:51,995
( Cries out )

524
00:47:54,581 --> 00:47:56,332
( Yells )

525
00:47:57,667 --> 00:47:59,252
(Grunts)

526
00:48:21,024 --> 00:48:24,694
( Laughs )

527
00:48:24,861 --> 00:48:26,571
( Booing )

528
00:48:28,073 --> 00:48:31,868
- ( Softly ) A mockery.
- Be still.

529
00:48:37,540 --> 00:48:40,835
( Snake hisses )

530
00:48:41,002 --> 00:48:43,588
( Heavy breathing )

531
00:48:45,757 --> 00:48:47,877
- ( Growls )
- ( Sura's voice echoing ) Kill them all.

532
00:48:54,015 --> 00:48:55,767
Yaah!

533
00:48:59,813 --> 00:49:03,399
Yaah!

534
00:49:14,202 --> 00:49:16,412
( Cries out )

535
00:49:59,956 --> 00:50:03,251
( Crowd chanting )
Kill kill kill kill!

536
00:50:32,864 --> 00:50:35,325
( Chanting )
Live live live live live!

537
00:50:51,299 --> 00:50:54,427
Well, this presents
some difficulty.

538
00:50:54,594 --> 00:50:56,429
The sentence of death holds.

539
00:50:56,596 --> 00:50:58,723
But to defy the wishes
of the crowd,

540
00:50:58,890 --> 00:51:01,684
it's unwise, even for a senator.

541
00:51:01,851 --> 00:51:04,771
He gave me grievance!
I will not see him freed!

542
00:51:04,938 --> 00:51:06,564
A solution, perhaps...

543
00:51:06,731 --> 00:51:09,442
If you will entertain, Legatus?

544
00:51:09,609 --> 00:51:11,212
The Thracian has shown
promise in the arena,

545
00:51:11,236 --> 00:51:14,239
albeit against Solonius's
inferior stock.

546
00:51:14,405 --> 00:51:17,533
I have a batch of new recruits
arriving tomorrow.

547
00:51:17,700 --> 00:51:19,577
If I were to purchase
this man in addition

548
00:51:19,744 --> 00:51:22,705
to be trained at my iudus
in the gladiatorial arts,

549
00:51:22,872 --> 00:51:27,043
why in his condition, I doubt
he'll survive to the quarter moon.

550
00:51:31,589 --> 00:51:33,883
( Chanting continues )
Live live live live live!

551
00:51:34,050 --> 00:51:35,802
We will be merciful, hmm?

552
00:51:35,969 --> 00:51:38,846
And by such,
gain the favor you seek.

553
00:51:42,183 --> 00:51:44,602
What name does the man carry?

554
00:51:44,769 --> 00:51:46,980
I never cared to ask.

555
00:51:48,398 --> 00:51:50,900
Batiatus: The way he fights...

556
00:51:51,067 --> 00:51:53,278
Like the legend
of the Thracian king of old.

557
00:51:57,782 --> 00:51:59,867
Spartacus he was called.

558
00:52:05,498 --> 00:52:07,417
( Crowd quiets )

559
00:52:11,629 --> 00:52:13,506
People of Capua,

560
00:52:13,673 --> 00:52:17,844
this man, this Spartacus,

561
00:52:18,011 --> 00:52:21,180
has proven himself in the arena.

562
00:52:21,347 --> 00:52:24,767
For this, Legatus
claudius Glaber and I

563
00:52:24,934 --> 00:52:28,479
Grant him life.

564
00:52:28,646 --> 00:52:30,690
( Cheering )

565
00:52:35,111 --> 00:52:36,446
( Chanting ) Spartacus!

566
00:52:36,612 --> 00:52:38,656
Spartacus, Spartacus!

567
00:52:38,823 --> 00:52:41,159
Spartacus, Spartacus!

568
00:52:41,326 --> 00:52:43,453
( Chanting continues )

569
00:53:06,601 --> 00:53:08,603
( Theme music playing )
