rome 1/21

[jba]

they were niobe's sister, her bastard (this is who you thought was Cleopatra's son?), and vorenus's daughters. They were not with Octavian - he passed them on the way out of the city.

edit: also it makes way more sense this way. why would Erastes kill them when he can make some money off of them by selling them into slavery? Vorenus is about to kill him anyways, so he might as well say they've been raped/killed.

It was Vorenus' family, apparently sold into slavery and sent off, rather than murdered, as believed. Not sure what to make of it, other than that Vorenus' grief therapy sessions may not get better any time soon...

This whole series is amazing. Its too bad that its not more popular because a lot of people are missing out.

I don't get how the sister-in-law goes from being let out of the cage to tell Vorenus and Pullo that the children have been taken, to being in the slave cart with them. Maybe it was supposed to be a different woman in the cage, but I watched it again and I'm pretty sure that was her.

the woman who told them the children had been taken was not niobe's sister. I think it was her friend.

I was pretty sure it was the sister too... which confused the hell out of me. Maybe she just went with them to protect them. She had nothing left in Rome once they were sold off

it was definitely NOT the sister that they found rummaging through the cupboard. how could you think it was based on vorenus and pullo's reaction to her being there??

I don't have t.v, could you, using colorful language describe the show?

A hip and dark version of Imperial Rome. The story line features on several chararcters from two lowly Roman soldiers with 7 gold horseshoes up their ass to the Julii family (Caesar's family). First class acting and lots of nudity and immoral behavior..
Season 1 starts with Caesar's triumph of Gaul through his victory in civil war to his assassination. Season 2 has just started...

I thought Vorenus's daughters et all were part of the slaves that Octavian owned and was taking with him. It looked like they were going with Octavian and his soldiers.

No, Octavian just passed by them on the way out of Rome. He looked awesome with the black eyes. This is going to be an exciting season for me since I don't know this part of the story as well as the previous portion.
