Eager to return to Rome after eight years of war, Caesar ends his campaign with a resounding triumph in Gaul. Back in Rome, Caesar's old friend Pompey is counselled by the Senate, who worry about Caesar's growing popularity. Meanwhile, two soldiers are enlisted to find the army's stolen gold standard.

After being anointed People's Tribune by Caesar, Mark Antony returns to Rome with Octavian's liberators, Vorenus and Pullo. After being praised and welcomed by a grateful Atia, Vorenus heads home to his family, for the first time in eight years, while Pullo heads for the brothels.
