to rule jointly over Egypt.
Rome was appointed their guardian
and the executor of his will.
I have come in the name of Rome to ask
why Cleopatra has been deposed...
...to resolve the differences
between her and King Ptolemy...
...and to see that they peacefully
resume their joint rule of Egypt.
That will be difficult.
Cleopatra has forfeited her right.
Don't you see he'll send for her?
He'll bring her back!
upon the ruler of the two lands...
...burns too brightly perhaps.
If Lord Ptolemy wishes to retire...
I wish nothing of the kind!
I won't be put out of the way
until I've watched you give him that!
A thousand pardons,
I had almost forgotten.
Lord Ptolemy wishes to enhance his
welcome by a gift of some importance.
Most generous.
The ring. Give him Pompey's ring.
And now the token of
His Majesty's affection for Rome...
...and regard for Caesar.
Pompey the Great.
Dead men, they say, do not bite.
Does it please you, Caesar?
They said it would
please you very much.
The sun does shed its grace
too brightly.
It has become too hot here for kings.
My Lord Ptolemy will retire.
For His Majesty,
It was not by your hand, of course.
If, as you say, you've been told
of me, you know better, Caesar.
My men shall be
properly housed and fed.
- May I speak?
I'll require rooms in the palace.
honored to escort you.
Anyone but you.
Find the rest of Pompey.
Tear out a thousand tongues,
but find him.
Have him purified...
...the coin in the mouth
and the rest, honorably.
Of course.
For now, this is what we must hold.
Moon gate and three others.
Here, here and here.
How are we placed?
The 10th slingers on the moon gate.
The rest in reserve.
The 12th holding all other positions.
Very thin.
For now, deep enough.
- And the wells?
- The water's brackish, but drinkable.
So far. IKeep an eye on them.
Watch the corn and wheat.
With our supplies secure,
we can hold indefinitely.
For a week, perhaps,
but for the time being, time enough.
What do you want?
Is the man to be trusted?
Seems someone's brought me a gift...
...from Queen Cleopatra.
Apparently, a rug peddler.
Flavius doubts it.
He seems to know the palace very well.
He appeared through a secret passage
which none of the men knew.
Pothinus might send an assassin
in Cleopatra's name.
Have the man brought in.
Are you the one
who brings a gift from Cleopatra?
Put it down and go.
It is the command of my queen
I deliver her gift personally.
I am Caesar. Lay it here before me.
Forgive me, Admiral Agrippa,
