Although over-the-top Atia and Octavia squabbling over who would kill whom in which order was fantastic.
And Sempronia, sitting to one side. "No thank you, I'm sure we can manage on our own." So funny!

Poor man. So earnest. Such a twerp. Tries so hard. Doesn't understand why the rules he was taught aren't actually the ones that work.

I suspect that someone just decided that political history was too hard to explain -- which I can kind of see -- I just don't understand why they've made the specific changes they've made.
