[narrator] Confined to his room, Caligula finds himself
forced to stay on Capri. Now, all he can do is wait
to see what Tiberius has planned for him. [Adrian Murdoch]
Caligula was a hostage on Capri, and if the emperor had had any problems,
he could've been got rid of. It's part of the old dictum of "Keep your
friends close and your enemies closer." Tiberius could keep a close eye with him, and would have no compunction
about killing him at the slightest drop of a hat
