Emperor Tiberius: Tell me, what was your impression of Pilate?

Marcellus Gallio: It's not my place to...

Emperor Tiberius: I'm asking you. Did you find him capable?

Marcellus Gallio: Yes sire, he's considered a good administrator.

Emperor Tiberius: Stern, as befits a Roman governor?

Marcellus Gallio: I'm sure of that, sire.

Emperor Tiberius: Just?

Marcellus Gallio: I - I can't say.

Emperor Tiberius: Why not? Surely you can give me some sort of an answer? Tell me, tribune - what happened out there?

Emperor Tiberius: For your sake I interfered, when my wife wanted to give you to Caligula. For your sake I brought your tribune back from Palestine. For your sake, I now free you from him.

Diana: Sire, I have no wish to be free.

Emperor Tiberius: Have you gone mad too?

Diana: He had everything then. He could have had me too. I wanted him, but I wasn't sure that I loved him. Now I am sure.

Emperor Tiberius: I see it my duty to forbid you to see him again. As a child you were wise, but now you reason like a woman - foolishly.
