Quote
Alexander:
What's all this about my father?
Olympias:
To the sword, the cross, the rack - men who have been his friends for years. Now everyone is his enemy - he accuses everyone of conspiring against him... even me. You'll hear the story, Alexander - you'll hear it from him. But you mustn't believe him, you mustn't... you don't! Do you, Alexander?
Alexander:
Why should he accuse you?
Olympias:
He wants to get rid of me... he's been wanting to for years. He wants to marry again.
Alexander:
Who?
Olympias:
Attalus's niece. You be careful of Attalus - you be careful of all of them. She's no fool - she won't let him throw her away like he's done with all the others. She's young...
Alexander:
Oh, Mother...!
Olympias:
Whatever he asks of you, do. Whatever he says, agree with. For when you're regent...
[she smiles]
Olympias:
*when you're regent*... then, *we'll* rule the land.
Alexander:
*We*?
[Olympias's face falls]
