0:00:06 > 0:00:09Odysseus is strangling the life out of us to provoke a reaction.
0:00:09 > 0:00:13I've no option but to impose rationing on the whole city.
0:00:13 > 0:00:15If we can dig from both sides,
0:00:15 > 0:00:18in two months we'll have a supply line from the sea.
0:00:18 > 0:00:20- What is it?- Fortified wine.
0:00:20 > 0:00:23It worked when I was trying to conceive.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50Cilicia. Does that name mean anything to you?

0:02:23 > 0:02:27- They're preparing a full supply. - They're preparing a full supply!

0:02:44 > 0:02:47The people of my daughter's city are starving, Chryses.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49There's no such thing as too much.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22We're still at war.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25But we're fighting. The supply line will bring hope,
0:06:25 > 0:06:28prove to our people that whatever the Greeks do,
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Troy won't be defeated.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40You're the one who's made that happen.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45It just feels good to do something for once.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52The bread, yes, here.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54I thought we deserved it.
0:06:54 > 0:06:58It's been a while since we had cause to celebrate.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Feels wrong to have this much.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Well, soon we'll have more.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06THEY GIGGLE

0:07:17 > 0:07:18You don't have fever, Madam.
0:07:20 > 0:07:21No
0:07:23 > 0:07:24THEY LAUGH
0:07:24 > 0:07:27Hector, Alexander...
0:07:27 > 0:07:29- Where've you been?- I'll explain.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33..you risked your lives to give this city a lifeline.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Today, we eat and drink in your honour.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- ALL:- Hear, hear.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Sir...
0:07:42 > 0:07:44I came through the tunnels... from Cilicia.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46What happened?
0:07:46 > 0:07:48The Greeks...
0:07:48 > 0:07:50..a surprise attack.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52They set the fields alight,
0:07:52 > 0:07:54destroyed the supplies.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56The whole city was burning.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Did my father make it out?
0:08:10 > 0:08:15- THEY CHANT:- Myrmidons! Ah-ooh! Myrmidons! Ah-ooh!
0:08:31 > 0:08:33CHANTING CONTINUES
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Look at this!
0:08:46 > 0:08:48First time I've seen you take a spoil.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- Let me see her.- She's not on parade.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Well done, Achilles.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04We're fortunate to have you on our side.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49You're not her.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52She's the priest's daughter.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56- She's mine.- But, Sir...
0:09:56 > 0:09:58I said she's mine.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18The Greeks never came near the tunnel entrance.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20It's possible they didn't even know about the ration supply
0:10:20 > 0:10:23It doesn't matter. We can't allow an open route into the city.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25We need to shut the tunnels down.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Father, they're our only way out
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Do you want what happened to Cilicia to happen to us?
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Fill them in...
0:10:33 > 0:10:34..now!
0:10:39 > 0:10:42If Cilicia was attacked because they helped us,
0:10:42 > 0:10:44then we're the reason those people are dead.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Eetion chose to lend us aid.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50It was a decision he made willingly, with knowledge of the dangers.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53- No.- Don't let this crush your spirit, son.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55DOOR CREAKS CLOSED
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Is this a punishment?
0:11:08 > 0:11:11Don't.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Without Cilicia, we will starve.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Cities are lost in war.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Questioning every defeat will send you mad.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24The gods are with us.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08My father knows.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11We're the ones to blame.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15This isn't your fault.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18I helped dig the tunnels.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20I brokered the alliance.
0:12:23 > 0:12:24Who else does it fall on?
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Paris.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37He said it was Achilles.
0:12:42 > 0:12:43What?
0:12:45 > 0:12:47The messenger,
0:12:47 > 0:12:50he said that Achilles led the attack, and murdered Eetion.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52I swear on the gods,
0:12:52 > 0:12:56if I ever meet him in battle, I'll tear him apart.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25That wound will fester.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27You should use the ointment.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36I'm sorry you lost your home.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40War is war.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43Cities fall.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46But I didn't bring you here because I wanted a slave.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50I brought you here because I thought you deserved to live.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Still refusing to use this?
0:14:22 > 0:14:25I know that you don't trust us yet.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27But the man behind me chose you for his own.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31That makes you safer than any man or woman in this camp.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44See? All it takes is just a little...
0:14:44 > 0:14:45HE GASPS
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Cut me free...
0:14:50 > 0:14:52..or I kill him.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03I spared you once.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06I don't like repeating myself.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Your choice.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21HE GASPS
0:15:33 > 0:15:34Don't fear me.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42I have enough men for that.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Andromache.
0:16:09 > 0:16:10- Continue.- My Lady...
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Stop! What are you doing?
0:16:12 > 0:16:14I need to see my father's body.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19Do you ever think you'd make it there alive?
0:16:19 > 0:16:21I'm a woman in mourning.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23They'd let me through.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27Then let me go with you.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30But you need to give me time to plan safe passage.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32It has to be now.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38You're sweating.
0:16:38 > 0:16:39- I'm fine.- Are you sick?
0:16:39 > 0:16:40No.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43I'm...
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Go.
0:16:50 > 0:16:51Now.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01Why didn't you tell me?
0:17:01 > 0:17:04You would have never let me go.
0:17:07 > 0:17:08My love,
0:17:08 > 0:17:12we will tell our child that their grandfather was good,
0:17:12 > 0:17:16and strong, and he would've loved them deeply,
0:17:16 > 0:17:18but now it's up to us to live.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21For his grandchild.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30So nothing I offer you will please you.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39I had no choice, you know.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43The gods gave me no choice.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49We should toast.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51This was her favourite.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55I forbade her to drink more than a goblet, but she always disobeyed.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01She knew.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06She knew I had to do it.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14And she forgave her father for doing what had to be done.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23To forgiveness?
0:18:31 > 0:18:33You do not deserve forgiveness.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38And I thank the gods that you are no father of mine.
0:18:42 > 0:18:43SHE SCREAMS
0:18:43 > 0:18:45HE GRUNTS
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Where are your gods now?
0:18:47 > 0:18:50- SHE SCREAMS - No!
0:18:50 > 0:18:52No!
0:18:52 > 0:18:54SHE SCREAMS
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Please!
0:18:56 > 0:18:59SHE SOBS AND SCREAMS
0:19:00 > 0:19:03Please! No!
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Apollo sees everything.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32He will punish you.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42HE GASPS
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Aphrodite...
0:20:54 > 0:20:56..tell me what to do.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Can I ask you something?
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Of course.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34What would you do
0:21:34 > 0:21:38if you were told that someone close to you was dangerous,
0:21:38 > 0:21:40the cause of terrible things?
0:21:40 > 0:21:42And this person...
0:21:43 > 0:21:45..do they seem violent?
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Evil?
0:21:47 > 0:21:49No.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51In fact, you'd only really seen them trying to do right.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00I'd say I was being led to distrust someone who didn't deserve it.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10This war will test us, Hector.
0:22:11 > 0:22:16The years will drag, our rations will shrink, and our men will die.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21The city needs us to stand strong.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25If we lose faith in each other...
0:22:26 > 0:22:29..Troy will fall.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50WOMAN SCREAM
0:22:50 > 0:22:51Nice to be king, isn't it?
0:22:51 > 0:22:53SCREAMING CONTINUES
0:22:53 > 0:22:55The Myrmidons fight the fight,
0:22:55 > 0:22:57but who gets to fuck the winnings?
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Hey.
0:23:09 > 0:23:10Men!
0:23:13 > 0:23:15What's going on?
0:23:15 > 0:23:17HE VOMITS
0:23:32 > 0:23:34- It's the only way I can think of. - We only have warhorses left.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37- We can't afford to lose them. - Then I'll give up my own.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40It's a small price for a man's soul.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44If it was you, I would do anything I could.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46What's going on?
0:23:49 > 0:23:52Andromache believes that no-one has performed
0:23:52 > 0:23:55her father's funeral rites.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57Your brother wants to hold the ceremony here,
0:23:57 > 0:24:00to permit Eetion safe passage into Elysium.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03- But Eetion's body... - ..is inaccessible.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06We'd have to offer a holy vessel in his place.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08- A vessel?- A horse.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10HORSE TROTS
0:24:32 > 0:24:33Are you sure about this?
0:24:35 > 0:24:37You make sacrifices for the people you love.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Even if it makes you hate yourself.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Got here last night.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Don't move. Just stand there.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04Watching us.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06We should gut them.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09It's a good idea.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11You might replace Agamemnon as Apollo's favourite.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30That's my father.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Here to fight for your return?
0:25:39 > 0:25:41He doesn't need to.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05This sickness takes hold fast.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07This is Apollo's wrath.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09Indeed.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12Your leader violated his priest's daughter.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17A single king has the power to damn a nation.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Patroclus...
0:26:32 > 0:26:34..you need to rest.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37More came in this morning.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40A few more weeks, and the sick'll outnumber the healthy.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46We came here to fight Menelaus' cause.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49And now we die because his brother won't give up his plaything.
0:26:52 > 0:26:57Is this honour? Is this what it means to be a warrior?
0:26:57 > 0:27:00We came here because a Trojan disgraced a Greek king.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05We're loyal to Agamemnon.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09You shouldn't let this sickness make us forget that.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11HE COUGHS
0:27:11 > 0:27:13You all right?

0:29:01 > 0:29:03Is it enough?
0:29:03 > 0:29:04It is.
0:29:14 > 0:29:16You did a good thing.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28I can't unsee it, Madam.
0:29:57 > 0:29:59SHE GASPS
0:30:02 > 0:30:04Sorry.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19My town was hit with a plague like this.
0:30:20 > 0:30:23My mother taught me a remedy to slow the sickness.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27He was kind to me.
0:30:39 > 0:30:42What happened with the plague?
0:30:42 > 0:30:44People died.
0:30:44 > 0:30:46My parents included.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52It passed in the end, but this is different.
0:30:53 > 0:30:57Agamemnon has slighted Apollo. The sickness won't lift
0:30:57 > 0:30:59until Chriseis is returned.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01HE SPLUTTERS
0:31:02 > 0:31:05He's bleeding from the inside.
0:31:18 > 0:31:21- What the hell are you...?- Men are dying out there. My man is dying.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26All because you won't give back your new toy.
0:31:30 > 0:31:32- Get out...- Give her back!
0:31:34 > 0:31:35Or I will.
0:31:37 > 0:31:40I can't be the only one thinking they acted on inside knowledge.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43- That's a dangerous accusation. - Forgive me, Madam,
0:31:43 > 0:31:45but it's also a valid theory.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47The tunnels were a confidential operation.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49Cilicia was our greatest ally.
0:31:49 > 0:31:52There are 100 reasons the Greeks would've wanted it gone -
0:31:52 > 0:31:54none of which involve treachery.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56Can we really just dismiss this as coincidence?
0:31:56 > 0:32:00If there's even a chance someone here gave Cilicia up...
0:32:00 > 0:32:03We owe it to the dead to find out.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10We can work quietly.
0:32:10 > 0:32:13Interview everyone who knew about the tunnels.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16At least eliminate the possibility of a traitor inside Troy.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24But our people are loyal.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26Why treat them like suspects when the city is in recovery?
0:32:26 > 0:32:28I don't believe that Cilicia was a chance attack.
0:32:28 > 0:32:31The Greeks must've known what it meant to us.
0:32:31 > 0:32:34Even if they did, it doesn't mean they learned that from a Trojan.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37Paris, all of this will only cause Andromache more pain.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39And if there is a traitor?
0:32:40 > 0:32:43How do you think she'll feel seeing them get what they deserve?
0:33:12 > 0:33:14Let the gods bear witness...
0:33:14 > 0:33:18we hereby return the daughter of Apollo to her rightful temple...
0:33:21 > 0:33:23..and relinquish all hold upon her.
0:33:42 > 0:33:44- Chriseis.- Father!
0:34:01 > 0:34:03DISTANT: Men, ready!
0:34:27 > 0:34:29Must be agonising,
0:34:29 > 0:34:32seeing those from home, and not being able to go back with them.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37Only Cilicia was never really your home, was it?
0:34:39 > 0:34:41The mark of a Trojan exile.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45You're Litos,
0:34:45 > 0:34:47Priam's high priest.
0:34:47 > 0:34:50Once.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53Why would a king banish his gateway to the gods?
0:34:56 > 0:34:59You saw something?
0:34:59 > 0:35:02Knew something he didn't want getting out?
0:35:02 > 0:35:07The gods gave you power to guide the future of men,
0:35:07 > 0:35:09yet you huddle in silence.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11I serve the gods in my own way.
0:35:11 > 0:35:15You do Priam's bidding.
0:35:15 > 0:35:17I tried
0:35:17 > 0:35:19to prevent this war.
0:35:19 > 0:35:22- He wouldn't listen.- Look around.
0:35:25 > 0:35:30The earth is soaked with Greek and Trojan blood.
0:35:32 > 0:35:36If the gods granted you knowledge to tip the scales,
0:35:36 > 0:35:38they intended you to use it.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48What do you know?
0:36:03 > 0:36:06I thought we were done with all these questions.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08Yes, well...
0:36:08 > 0:36:11- I suppose they're on edge after Cilicia.- Still.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14The idea of a spy inside the city, it's unthinkable.
0:36:16 > 0:36:18Aren't you one of the royal servants?
0:36:18 > 0:36:21I saw you at the funeral.
0:36:21 > 0:36:23Excuse me.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Madam, shall I prepare your bath?
0:36:44 > 0:36:47I think I'd prefer to be alone tonight.
0:36:52 > 0:36:56Actually, there's one more thing you could do for me.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16KNOCK AT DOOR
0:37:34 > 0:37:37What are you doing?
0:37:37 > 0:37:39Just breaking into tomorrow's wine ration.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45Haven't seen you do this for a while.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52We've questioned everyone involved in the tunnels.
0:37:52 > 0:37:56No-one knows anything that might point to treachery.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59That's a good thing, isn't it?
0:37:59 > 0:38:01I just wanted some kind of justice.
0:38:03 > 0:38:05You wanted someone to blame.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09Someone else.
0:38:12 > 0:38:16Anyone who dies in this war, it's because I started it.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18Alexander,
0:38:18 > 0:38:20we fight with you,
0:38:20 > 0:38:22not because of you.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26We're family.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29We stand together.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34It's how we're going to win.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39They've been asking questions.
0:38:40 > 0:38:42The soldiers from the palace.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47Have you told them anything?
0:38:48 > 0:38:50Not yet.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55I was Achilles' target.
0:38:56 > 0:38:58When he walked out of my chamber,
0:38:58 > 0:39:01I never thought there'd be consequences for anyone else.
0:39:05 > 0:39:09I know how much I'm asking of you.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34We don't have to be on opposing sides.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43I hope you'll remain in our employ.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47You're a loyal servant.
0:40:03 > 0:40:05You're getting stronger.
0:40:05 > 0:40:07- And you're holding back. - HE GRUNTS
0:40:07 > 0:40:09You almost died, Patroclus.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13I'm hardly going to beat you bloody.
0:40:13 > 0:40:15Because you could?
0:40:15 > 0:40:17Argh!
0:40:22 > 0:40:24I told you.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26Argh!
0:41:04 > 0:41:07- You seem better.- I am.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10Achilles told me you looked after me when I was sick.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12Thank you.
0:41:13 > 0:41:15I'm glad you didn't die.
0:42:38 > 0:42:40Where've you been?
0:42:49 > 0:42:51You've been drinking.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57I needed to.
0:43:03 > 0:43:07What happened with the interviews?
0:43:09 > 0:43:12You were right.
0:43:12 > 0:43:14We're not about to unearth a traitor.
0:43:34 > 0:43:36I love you.
0:43:40 > 0:43:42What are you doing out here?
0:43:42 > 0:43:45Are the Greeks going to win?
0:43:45 > 0:43:47HE SIGHS
0:43:47 > 0:43:49They burned Cilicia.
0:43:49 > 0:43:50They could burn us too.
0:43:52 > 0:43:54I don't want Troy to lose.
0:43:56 > 0:43:58Come with me.
0:44:06 > 0:44:10- Close your eyes.- What?- Just do it.
0:44:10 > 0:44:13I want you to picture the Trojan shore.
0:44:13 > 0:44:16The way the sand melts from light to dark.
0:44:18 > 0:44:19Now imagine you're flying over it.
0:44:21 > 0:44:23Across the great plain of wild flowers
0:44:23 > 0:44:25spread out like patchwork under the sun.
0:44:27 > 0:44:29You're heading for the walls.
0:44:29 > 0:44:32Those great gates stretching towards the sky.
0:44:33 > 0:44:37Over the threshold and now you're inside.
0:44:37 > 0:44:39Across the streets.
0:44:39 > 0:44:42Soaring across the citadel towards the palace.
0:44:44 > 0:44:46- Do you see it?- I see it.
0:44:46 > 0:44:48Good.
0:44:48 > 0:44:50Open your eyes.
0:44:51 > 0:44:54However this war ends, you close your eyes,
0:44:54 > 0:44:56and Troy will always be there.
0:44:58 > 0:45:00OK.
0:45:44 > 0:45:46Achilles!
0:45:53 > 0:45:55Achilles!
0:46:27 > 0:46:29How's Patroclus?
0:46:29 > 0:46:31Doing better.
0:46:31 > 0:46:33Good news.
0:46:34 > 0:46:36Patroclus recovers.
0:46:36 > 0:46:38Achilles gets his best man back.
0:46:38 > 0:46:41All is well.
0:46:41 > 0:46:43Yet here stands Agamemnon.
0:46:43 > 0:46:47Stripped of his prize in front of his men.
0:46:47 > 0:46:49Forced to do the bidding of an inferior.
0:46:49 > 0:46:53- Brother...- Silence! I am king here.
0:46:53 > 0:46:55You are my warrior.
0:46:55 > 0:46:58I never pretended to be anything than what I am.
0:46:58 > 0:47:00Good. Then you will understand.
0:47:00 > 0:47:05Since I was forced to give up something precious at your demand...
0:47:06 > 0:47:08..you will return the favour.
0:47:10 > 0:47:12I want her.
0:47:18 > 0:47:19The Trojans never wronged me.
0:47:21 > 0:47:23I came here for you.
0:47:24 > 0:47:28I slay men by the day for you,
0:47:28 > 0:47:30and now you intend to take my woman...
0:47:32 > 0:47:35..so you can feel like a ruler again.
0:47:39 > 0:47:41Take her.
0:47:43 > 0:47:45But do that,
0:47:45 > 0:47:48and I withdraw from the fighting forever.
0:47:55 > 0:47:57Agamemnon...
0:47:59 > 0:48:01- ..we need him.- Silence!
0:48:18 > 0:48:21This war does not rely on you to win it.
0:48:23 > 0:48:25Achilles...
0:48:27 > 0:48:29You are nothing without me.
0:48:35 > 0:48:37SHE GASPS
0:48:39 > 0:48:41Agamemnon!
0:48:47 > 0:48:49You fight alone now.
0:49:06 > 0:49:08We're fucked.
0:49:09 > 0:49:12- Shut your mouth.- Oh, come on, Ajax, we're all thinking it!
0:49:12 > 0:49:16Agamemnon's tumbled off the sanity cliff, and Achilles isn't fighting.
0:49:16 > 0:49:18I'd say we're all halfway to Hades.
0:49:18 > 0:49:20- Fucking...!- Hey, hey, hey!
0:49:20 > 0:49:22What are you going to do now?
0:49:49 > 0:49:52- What?- The Greeks...
0:49:53 > 0:49:55..they're proposing a duel.
0:49:55 > 0:49:58Single combat to decide the war.
0:49:58 > 0:50:00- Who would you fight?- Not me. You.
0:50:01 > 0:50:03And Menelaus.
0:50:03 > 0:50:05It's a trick.
0:50:05 > 0:50:08Menelaus would never put himself at risk
0:50:08 > 0:50:09unless he was certain he could win.
0:50:09 > 0:50:12They've asked us to dictate the terms.
0:50:12 > 0:50:15- We can enforce a code of honour. - Where?
0:50:15 > 0:50:17Outside the walls.
0:50:17 > 0:50:21We'll assemble archers to protect you. I'd be your second.
0:50:21 > 0:50:23You're faster than Menelaus.
0:50:23 > 0:50:25You could win the war, Alexander.
0:50:26 > 0:50:28You really believe that?
0:50:28 > 0:50:30I believe in you.
0:50:32 > 0:50:35It's his decision, Hecuba.
0:50:39 > 0:50:40He wants to fight.
0:50:42 > 0:50:44He believes he can win.
0:50:50 > 0:50:52"Have faith," you said.
0:50:56 > 0:50:58I'm coming back.
0:50:59 > 0:51:01How can you be so sure?
0:51:03 > 0:51:05I just am.
0:51:07 > 0:51:09Like when I first saw you in Sparta.
0:51:11 > 0:51:13I knew I couldn't leave without you.
0:51:15 > 0:51:18That wasn't life or death.
0:51:18 > 0:51:19Yes.
0:51:19 > 0:51:21It was.
0:51:24 > 0:51:27I know Menelaus.
0:51:27 > 0:51:29He'll have something.
0:51:30 > 0:51:32So do I.
0:51:34 > 0:51:36Something he'll never have again.
0:52:51 > 0:52:54HORN BLARES
0:53:00 > 0:53:02THEY GRUNT
0:53:04 > 0:53:06MOUTHING: Come on.
0:53:10 > 0:53:12THEY GRUNT
0:53:12 > 0:53:14SWORDS CLASH
0:54:04 > 0:54:07You'd kill me, would you, boy?
0:54:07 > 0:54:09Become Troy's hero?
0:54:09 > 0:54:12There's someone you need to meet first.
0:54:21 > 0:54:23Who are you?
0:54:23 > 0:54:25I was Troy's high priest.
0:54:25 > 0:54:27Your father banished me.
0:54:30 > 0:54:31Why?
0:54:31 > 0:54:35Because of what I know about you.
0:54:35 > 0:54:37Kill him. Now.
0:54:38 > 0:54:40I cut the doves at your birth.
0:54:40 > 0:54:42The blood ran black.
0:54:51 > 0:54:54The gods have cursed you, Alexander.
0:54:54 > 0:54:57They place your life on the scales, and Troy on the other end.
0:55:02 > 0:55:05You didn't think you were taken by wolves, did you?
0:55:09 > 0:55:11What are you talking about?
0:55:11 > 0:55:14The prophecy.
0:55:19 > 0:55:22For Troy to live, you have to die.
0:55:40 > 0:55:42Your own family tried to kill you.
0:55:42 > 0:55:44And now you bring them nothing but death.
0:55:46 > 0:55:48Make them stop!
0:55:49 > 0:55:52A curse on his family.
0:55:52 > 0:55:55A curse on his wife.
0:55:57 > 0:55:59A curse on the city he fights for!
0:56:20 > 0:56:23THUDDING CONTINUES
0:56:23 > 0:56:25THEY CLAP IN TIME
0:56:40 > 0:56:44BEAT INCREASES TEMPO
0:57:01 > 0:57:03- OTHER WORLDLY VOICE:- Run!
