Season 2
In the wake of Caesar's murder, a cauldron of contrary emotions bubbles across Rome. Narrowly escaping the swords of Quintus Pompey and his henchmen outside the Senate, Mark Antony decides to flee to the north but Octavian argues for him to stay, after learning he is heir to Caesar's name and fortune. Boldly entering Servilia's lair, Mark Antony proposes an amnesty arrangement in which Caesar will be given a statesman's funeral, and Brutus and his Senate "liberators" will be acquitted of murder. Brutus' acquiescence backfires following the funeral, which turns the tide of public opinion in Mark Antony's favor. Meanwhile, a distraught Vorenus has his own funeral to arrange, but it will be done without the presence of his daughters or Niobe's illegitimate son Lucius, on whom he has issued a curse.
