15600:16:49,542 --> 00:16:51,032The

156
00:16:49,542 --> 00:16:51,032
There was no need for that

157
00:16:51,344 --> 00:16:53,733
Even a mere boy can see
what a treacherous, scheming...

158
00:16:54,147 --> 00:16:55,307
You were the one that had betrayed...

159
00:16:55,548 --> 00:16:56,640
Silence!

160
00:16:57,250 --> 00:16:58,740
Both of you!

161
00:17:07,994 --> 00:17:10,554
You have two very high spirited sisters

162
00:17:11,798 --> 00:17:13,663
Caesar, if you will allow me...

163
00:17:14,334 --> 00:17:15,460
Young Ptolemy,

164
00:17:15,802 --> 00:17:18,862
so long as your late father continued to
pay his debts to Rome

165
00:17:19,205 --> 00:17:23,869
Rome always respected
Egypt's sovereignty

166
00:17:24,244 --> 00:17:28,010
You will continue to rule as king,
with your sister...

167
00:17:28,915 --> 00:17:31,577
...Cleopatra as queen

168
00:17:31,918 --> 00:17:33,078
This is outrageous!

169
00:17:34,120 --> 00:17:41,276
Furthermore, I have decided that
you and Cleopatra will marry

170
00:17:43,129 --> 00:17:44,323
Never!

171
00:17:44,731 --> 00:17:46,289
I will not marry a child!

172
00:17:46,666 --> 00:17:47,894
You're an Egyptian princess

173
00:17:48,234 --> 00:17:49,326
According to ancient Egyptian tradition,

174
00:17:49,736 --> 00:17:52,899
royal incest between brother and sister
is quite acceptable

175
00:17:53,239 --> 00:17:56,697
however distasteful inbreeding
may seem to others

176
00:17:57,043 --> 00:18:01,173
In this case it will serve its purpose
and preserve the unity of Egypt

177
00:18:01,581 --> 00:18:03,378
Don't pretend you care about Egypt

178
00:18:03,716 --> 00:18:07,277
I care very much about Egypt,
Egypt is a source of great wealth

179
00:18:07,787 --> 00:18:11,575
I will not have you to bankrupt
the country in a civil war

180
00:18:11,991 --> 00:18:13,356
What about me?

181
00:18:15,095 --> 00:18:16,653
You can have Cyprus

182
00:18:16,996 --> 00:18:18,952
I'll restore it to the House of Ptolemy

183
00:18:19,299 --> 00:18:21,995
Cyprus? It's not enough!

184
00:18:22,635 --> 00:18:24,865
Caesar, may I ask if...

185
00:18:25,205 --> 00:18:29,562
Pothinus... your services to the king
will be rewarded, that will be all

186
00:18:31,311 --> 00:18:34,109
Queen Cleopatra, you may stay

187
00:18:39,018 --> 00:18:40,815
How could you do that?

188
00:18:43,123 --> 00:18:45,887
I just made you the Queen of Egypt

189
00:18:46,459 --> 00:18:48,484
Am I supposed to thank you?

190
00:18:50,130 --> 00:18:51,529
Understand

191
00:18:51,931 --> 00:18:56,027
I didn't do this out of courtesy,
and certainly not out of infatuation

192
00:18:56,369 --> 00:19:00,328
I expect you to bring order to
this country, and pay your debts to Rome

193
00:19:00,773 --> 00:19:04,163
I am simply ensuring the future of
my investment

194
00:19:04,611 --> 00:19:07,535
The sooner I am out of this viper's nest,
the better

195
00:19:07,914 --> 00:19:09,745
Viper's nest?

196
00:19:10,817 --> 00:19:12,341
You made it so!

197
00:19:12,619 --> 00:19:13,574
I made it so?

198
00:19:13,887 --> 00:19:18,381
Yes, you with your Roman greed
and arrogance!

199
00:19:18,691 --> 00:19:22,286
Blackmailing my father year after year,
forcing him to buy peace with Rome!

200
00:19:24,030 --> 00:19:28,660
If I would have been ruler,
you would have had war instead!

201
00:19:31,704 --> 00:19:34,559
And you would have lost everything!

202
00:19:36,409 --> 00:19:37,899
Learn to be a queen

203
00:19:38,211 --> 00:19:39,109
I am a queen!

204
00:19:39,445 --> 00:19:42,073
No you are not, not yet

205
00:19:42,348 --> 00:19:44,976
You must learn to think like a queen

206
00:19:45,318 --> 00:19:47,013
Strategically

207
00:19:48,221 --> 00:19:51,520
Now you start by accepting
a joint monarchy with Ptolemy,

208
00:19:51,824 --> 00:19:54,588
so we can demobilize his army

209
00:20:12,545 --> 00:20:14,035
My friends,

210
00:20:15,048 --> 00:20:18,711
let us all wear the garlands of gladness
and celebration

211
00:20:19,452 --> 00:20:23,218
Today King Ptolemy and
Queen Cleopatra have consented to

212
00:20:23,856 --> 00:20:30,819
live in harmony as man and wife,
and rule as one

213
00:20:32,799 --> 00:20:36,929
With peace and friendship now restored
amongst the royal household,

214
00:20:37,370 --> 00:20:40,225
there is no longer need for show of arms

215
00:20:42,075 --> 00:20:49,538
It gives me great pleasure to honor and
entrust our most respected friend...

216
00:20:49,983 --> 00:20:55,649
Pothinus the task of carrying this
great news most urgently to Pelusium,

217
00:20:55,989 --> 00:20:58,082
there to disband the royal army,

218
00:20:58,424 --> 00:21:02,281
and bring the soldiers home in peace

219
00:21:06,332 --> 00:21:08,892
Caesar's personal escort awaits you

220
00:21:20,580 --> 00:21:22,605
Pothinus cannot be trusted

221
00:21:22,949 --> 00:21:24,314
If you send him to Pelusium,

222
00:21:24,684 --> 00:21:27,608
he'll take control of the army
for his own purposes

223
00:21:31,658 --> 00:21:33,023
Walk with me

224
00:22:06,726 --> 00:22:10,184
Sometimes it is necessary to strike first,
Cleopatra

225
00:22:10,530 --> 00:22:12,020
It's well you did so

226
00:22:12,332 --> 00:22:13,196
You're not shocked?

227
00:22:13,433 --> 00:22:14,695
Shocked?

228
00:22:15,668 --> 00:22:18,626
Such things as this are not strange
to me

229
00:22:25,878 --> 00:22:28,506
Open negotiations
with the Egyptian generals

230
00:22:28,848 --> 00:22:30,440
Send them his head

231
00:22:40,660 --> 00:22:42,821
Your Majesty?
I wasn't expecting to see you...

232
00:22:43,162 --> 00:22:44,322
You idiot!

233
00:22:44,664 --> 00:22:46,928
Why did you let Cleopatra get past you?

234
00:22:47,266 --> 00:22:49,655
Alert your warships to set sail
for Alexandria

235
00:22:50,002 --> 00:22:51,264
We march at first light, c'mon

236
00:22:58,811 --> 00:23:05,273
Caesar! Caesar! Caesar!

237
00:23:06,619 --> 00:23:07,881
What is it?

238
00:23:14,460 --> 00:23:17,020
Forgive me, Imperator
Arsinoe is gone

239
00:23:17,330 --> 00:23:19,195
Ptolemy too
They've both vanished from the city

240
00:23:19,732 --> 00:23:21,097
They've gone to Pelusium

241
00:23:21,634 --> 00:23:24,125
To Ptolemy's army
To drive us both out of Alexandria

242
00:23:24,337 --> 00:23:25,736
Assemble my staff at once

243
00:23:36,149 --> 00:23:39,038
We must defend here, here and here

244
00:23:39,385 --> 00:23:40,249
I'll need more men

245
00:23:40,486 --> 00:23:41,544
Reinforcements are days away

246
00:23:41,888 --> 00:23:43,048
We must hold the harbour

247
00:23:43,356 --> 00:23:45,119
Otherwise the enemy will smash
our fleet

248
00:23:45,391 --> 00:23:47,450
Caesar, the Egyptians are on the march

249
00:23:47,794 --> 00:23:49,819
They will attack by land and sea

250
00:23:50,096 --> 00:23:52,826
The enemy numbers are too great
We cannot hold

251
00:23:53,099 --> 00:23:54,361
we will lose all

252
00:24:08,815 --> 00:24:10,077
Abandon the harbour

253
00:24:10,917 --> 00:24:12,407
We let them into the city!

254
00:24:12,618 --> 00:24:13,880
But there is no way out

255
00:24:14,220 --> 00:24:15,983
If we lose, you lose your empire

256
00:24:16,222 --> 00:24:17,587
This battle does not have to be fought

257
00:24:17,857 --> 00:24:19,779
Return to Rome
Caesar, you have no choice

258
00:24:20,026 --> 00:24:22,290
No! Caesar is right!

259
00:24:22,628 --> 00:24:24,994
If we fight within the walls of the city,
we can trap them

260
00:24:25,331 --> 00:24:27,891
All streets lead to the palace square

261
00:24:28,668 --> 00:24:31,193
Destroy them there Caesar

262
00:24:31,471 --> 00:24:33,302
You read my mind, Cleopatra

263
00:24:33,673 --> 00:24:35,436
There is always choice, Rufio

264
00:24:35,842 --> 00:24:37,400
We will fight them in the streets

265
00:24:37,743 --> 00:24:39,040
and when victory is
within the palms of their hands,

266
00:24:39,445 --> 00:24:42,005
we strike with all our might

267
00:24:42,448 --> 00:24:47,511
My countrymen, you and I
have risked all before

268
00:24:47,854 --> 00:24:49,617
and won, now we raise the stakes

269
00:24:49,956 --> 00:24:52,720
The prize is Egypt

270
00:26:28,321 --> 00:26:29,481
Cornelius

271
00:26:34,026 --> 00:26:35,084
Let them in

272
00:26:52,078 --> 00:26:52,840
Let them in!

273
00:26:53,245 --> 00:26:55,133
Let them into the city!

274
00:27:04,590 --> 00:27:08,549
Charge!

275
00:28:09,689 --> 00:28:12,180
Stop those horses!

276
00:28:40,419 --> 00:28:43,081
Rufio, Rufio, those flames!

277
00:28:43,823 --> 00:28:45,779
That's my library burning!

278
00:28:46,158 --> 00:28:47,022
I have to do something!

279
00:28:47,326 --> 00:28:49,886
No, Your majesty, it's too dangerous

280
00:29:10,516 --> 00:29:12,472
The rebel horsemen
have broken through!

281
00:29:12,918 --> 00:29:14,840
We must find somewhere safe
Your Majesty!

282
00:29:17,523 --> 00:29:18,649
Your Majesty!

283
00:29:38,844 --> 00:29:41,574
Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
Are you hurt?

284
00:29:41,914 --> 00:29:43,506
Forgive me, Your Majesty
I can't let you leave the palace!

285
00:29:43,816 --> 00:29:44,874
You must help me, Rufio!

286
00:29:45,217 --> 00:29:46,582
Our greatest treasure is burning!

287
00:30:03,669 --> 00:30:04,693
Forward!

288
00:30:33,299 --> 00:30:35,961
Go back! Go back!

289
00:30:40,873 --> 00:30:44,331
Fight for your Queen!
Fight for your Queen!

290
00:31:04,029 --> 00:31:07,192
Victory!

291
00:31:13,606 --> 00:31:14,470
Where is she?

292
00:31:14,740 --> 00:31:15,798
Caesar

293
00:31:33,826 --> 00:31:34,918
There...

294
00:31:39,732 --> 00:31:41,996
I'm sorry about your library

295
00:31:43,335 --> 00:31:45,200
Half of it is gone

296
00:31:46,138 --> 00:31:48,732
Half of the world's knowledge

297
00:31:53,545 --> 00:31:54,842
You'll have a scar here

298
00:31:55,147 --> 00:31:56,409
It's nothing

299
00:31:57,883 --> 00:31:59,839
I lost seven hundred men today

300
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,579
but won my greatest victory
