Did they kill her? She was sobbing on her bed later. Did you watch the whole episode?

No. Yes.

Octavian had fled Rome to Agrippa's. A couple years likely passed before he came back to Rome. Why not switch actors then?

This week was the first time we've seen Octavian since he fled Rome after his fight with Antony.

WTF is up with swapping Octavians?

The previous actor is around 18 or 19 in real life. I don't think he can pull of the Augustus.

I cant remember the actual history but I really hope a real side plot doesnt develop w/ Octavia and Octavians General Gripe(sp?).

Ok episode.

Octavia was married during the events of the show, as was Atia. So I doubt history would stop them.

Agrippa.

Octavia should be married to Marc Antony at some point.

Octavia marries Marc Antony at a leter point in history, after the formation of the 2nd Triumvirate. I don't think there is any historical connection b/w Octavia and Agrippa. But the series' portrayal of Octavia's first marriage had little to do with history, so who knows.

I thought it was a solid episode. Good to see Vorenus and Pullo back at it. Little too much on Timon. I liked the first Octavian but think the switch was necessary.

Where do you think they take Vorenus & Pullo from here? Back up with Antony? Sign up with Octavian?

Yeah, I mean this is a TV show, not the history channel.

Actor switches are always a bit confusing, but I will say that the new Octavian does a pitch-perfect imitation of the old.
