Proximo:
Congratulations, you have very persuasive friends.
Lucilla:
My brother's had Gracchus arrested. We daren't wait any longer. We must leave tonight. Proximo will be here t midnight and take you to the gate. Your servant, Cicero will be waiting there with horses.
[Maximus nods]
Maximus:
You have done all this?
Lucilla:
Yes.
Maximus:
[sighs]
You risk too much.
Lucilla:
I have much to pay for.
[Maximus shakes his head]
Maximus:
You have nothing to pay for. You love your son, you are strong for him.
Lucilla:
I am tired of being strong.(sighs) My brother hates all the world and you most of all.
Maximus:
Because your father chose me.
Lucilla:
No because my father loved you... and because I loved you.
Maximus:
A long time ago.
[kisses her hand]
Lucilla:
[smiles]
Was I very different then?
Maximus:
(shakes his head, touches her face with his finger) You laughed more.
Lucilla:
I have felt alone all my life, except with you. I must go.
Maximus:
Yes.
[kisses Lucilla one last time]
