I do not know him!
I have spent
- the rest of my life
Trying to rise above
that moment,
for what profit a man
that he gain the whole world,
yet lose his soul?
Something is troubling you.
Susanna.
on your behalf.
I have seen the looks
- that pass between
- the two of you.
I'm concerned for her safety.
And nothing else?
She is enamored
And you are not? Hmm?
It is hard to walk together
- on different paths.
- When you travel
I would like you to look
at these words.
They were inspired by him.
You may find them useful.
Thank you.
God be with you, Captain.
Husband?
My husband,
The Jew.
You mean Peter?
And the Senate.
I am no closer
to an accordance
that these Christians
started these fires.
You know, there are those
- release them.
- Who would have you
Traitors.
Who are they?
No one specifically,
but I hear talk
- in the streets,
- in the marketplace,
Even here in the palace.
They say he is a wise
and honest man
who never speaks against Rome.
That he talks only about...
Jesus.
Another rabbi crucified
years ago.
They say he is a holy man
who would not harm anyone.
But I suggest otherwise.
I suggest you further increase
the pressure on him
and on all of the Christians.
And how do you suggest
I do that?
Kill them.
Kill them all.
Perhaps that will gain
his confession.
If not, you eliminate
the root of the problem,
eliminate it
in a very public way.
As they say, "History
is written by the victors."
Go on.
Your games are about to begin.
What better way
to open the festival
than to put all traces
"Though I speak with
and of angels,
the tongues of men
"have not love, I am nothing."
"And though I understand
and all knowledge,
all mysteries
"and though I have all faith
"so that I may
remove mountains,
"but have not love,
I am nothing."
How do you know these words?
They are the words of Paul.
Paul.
"Love believes all things,
"hopes all things,
endures all things.
- -"Love never fails."
- -"Love never fails."
They are so beautiful.
But how do you know them?
Given to me by Peter
- Honor.
- In good spirits.
You've grown fond of him.
I'm sorry, Your Honor?
You think I don't know
about your conversations?
I have ears everywhere,
even in Mamertine.
It's natural.
When you spend so much time
with someone, you grow close.
I understand.
And he's a very compelling
storyteller.
Oh, come on.
Peter, the rabbi, your friend.
I know you talk to him.
Come.
Kneel.
Perhaps we could find a way
that I might consider
clemency for your friend.
Honor, your wife...
Yes, she's at the market
with her staff.
Eyes up, girl.
That's better.
So do you want clemency
for your friend?
- I'd like to consider
- your wishes.
But, of course,
it would require
that you spend far more time
in my service,
so to speak.
Does the idea of that to you
sound appealing?
Such an innocent thing.
Susanna!
Go to the kitchen
and help the others.
Yes, mistress.
- I want to thank you
- for your words.
Oh, they were not my words.
- They were the words
- of a friend.
- -Paul.
- -Mmm-hmm.
How do you know? Huh?
How do you really know
that this Jesus
was who he said he was?
I know that Jesus Christ
is the son of God
and my redeemer
because I saw him
after he died.
They crucified him,
and he rose again.
And I sat with him.
I talked with him.
I even ate with him.
Uh...
But I do not understand.
I am blessed
because I saw
the Christ risen.
But how much more blessed
are they who did not see
and yet believe?
Ah! Susanna.
Come, come.
A question.
Do you think me a fool?
I'm sorry, Honor?
In the realm of politics
and power,
and rulers and subjects,
deception and deceit,
I find it fascinating,
- how they all work together.
- Don't you?
Although history has taught us
that when a ruler
does not deal swiftly
with his subjects
about deception,
quite often,
he can find himself
on the wrong end
- of the delicate balance
- of his power,
And that's not good,
is it?
So I ask you again.
Do you think me a fool?
No, Honor.
Yet you treat me as one.
No, Honor.
Am I given to understand
that you are much more
than just good friends
with this Peter?
In fact,
you have become
one of these followers.
You have become
a Christian.
Yet when we last spoke,
- to me.
Is that any way to respect
your Emperor?
Answer me!
Mistress.
Please.
I've done nothing wrong.
Please.
Look at me.
Are you a Christian?
What is it that you want
from me?
The truth.
- What are you doing?
- What is this?
She's admitted to being
a Christian.
Susanna?
Nero has ordered the execution
of all the Christians,
including Peter, tomorrow.
No.
No, I will not hear it.
Release her immediately.
The orders come
straight from Nero.
It'll be my head
if I let her go.
- I will not allow...
- Martinian.
It is not his fault.
if I was a Christian,
and I could not deny my faith.
There is nothing to be done.
No, we will see.
Martinian?
Lock her up.
- Martinian.
- Out of my way, Captain.
Forgive the intrusion, Honor.
Yes, Captain, perhaps you've
brought me a confession.
Honor, I have come to ask
Susanna.
About your servant girl,
Ah, yes, no doubt
she's in Mamertine.
Pretty little flower.
Perhaps
there's been some mistake, no?
I don't believe so.
Honor, she is a harmless
servant girl.
- How is it that
- she is in prison?
She's a Christian.
That makes her a criminal.
- Captain?
- Than a dutiful question,
I only wish
that you would consider...
Of course,
- I offered her a way
A way, shall we say,
shouldn't be discussed
amongst polite company
or open court.
She refused.
It is only now
- what she meant
- that I understand
When she said
her heart belonged to another.
I appeal to your compassion.
No, you cannot, Captain.
The law is the law.
Who am I to change
my own edicts?
You're a passionate man.
I like that.
May I counsel you
that you shouldn't throw away
your entire career
over some pretty little
Christian servant girl
who was pleasing to the eye.
Ma'am,
she is your faithful servant.
- Surely, you would
- not let her die
For such a pointless offense.
You mistake
my wife's loyalty, Captain.
In fact, it was my wife
- servant's treachery.
- Who told me of this
My love, do you wish this girl
to be back in your service?
No, husband.
Ah, well,
it's decided then.
Now, Captain,
I have some orders for you.
Tomorrow, you will
personally be in charge
of the execution of Peter
and all the Christians
in prison.
Won't this be a wonderful way
- to start off the greatest
- banquet ever?
You are dismissed.
No, Honor,
those orders.
