![]() Mark Antony refuses Octavian's offer of unconditional surrender and challenges Octavian to single combat. It is made clear that Titus Pullo is aware that Caesarion is his son and that Vorenus also knows this. Octavian sends an emissary to Mark Antony, with a secret message to Lucius Vorenus, offering him amnesty if he will betray Antony and open the palace gates in an attempt to avoid a direct assault on the palace which might lead to a popular uprising. The palace becomes a place of never-ending orgies as Mark Antony and Cleopatra drug and drink themselves into a stupor. After losing the Battle of Actium, a vanquished Mark Antony barricades himself with Cleopatra in their palace in Alexandria.
