Ezio Auditore is informed by Bartolomeo that Cesare had begun to rally his supporters at the main gate into Rome. Gathering all the other Assassins, Ezio faces Cesare and his men at the gate. Upon being defeated, Cesare was arrested by Fabio Orsini. Later, however, Ezio fears that Cesare may escape, after he states that "chains will not hold him" while being dragged away by the Papal Guards, and uses the Apple to learn his fate.
Dialogue
United
Bartolomeo:My men tell me Cesare rallies his best soldiers in front of the main gate into Roma.
Ezio:Gather the Assassins. We'll face him together.
Ezio and Bartolomeo talking.
Ezio and the Assassins reach the city gate as Cesare waits with his men.
Cesare:All of Italia shall be united, and you will rule beside me.
He sees Ezio and the Assassins standing together.
Cesare:Come to watch my triumph? Soon Micheletto and his army will arrive. But you shall be dead before then.
Ezio: Insieme per la vittoria! (We stand together!)
Assassins: Vittoria agli Assassini! (Victory to the Assassins!)
The Assassins attack Cesare's guards, Cesare stands outside the closed gates watching and insulting Ezio.
Cesare:My men will never fail me. They know what awaits them if they do. Kill him. Soon you will pass from this Earth and my dominions will be returned to me. Rip the Assassin's throat out. I want the Assassin name to die today. Your uncle fought back. Look what happened to him.
Troops
Cesare Borgia's arrest.
Ezio and the Assassins succeed in killing all of Cesare's men. However, they see a troop of soldiers approaching.
Ezio:Throw down your arms, Cesare Borgia.
Cesare:Micheletto's troops mass behind me. We will take back my city once and for all.
Ezio:This is not your city anymore.
The troops which Cesare considered to be Micheletto's turn out to be Fabio Orsini's
Fabio Orsini:By order of Pope Julius II, I arrest you, Cesare Borgia, for the crimes of murder, betrayal and incest.
Cesare:No! No! No! No! This is not how it ends! Chains will not hold me! I will not die by the hand of man!
Ezio:I built this Brotherhood to last, with or without me.
Leonardo:What do you intend to do?
Ezio:Plant a seed. Here. A gift.
Leonardo:If this is goodbye, then keep your money. I do not want it.
Ezio:We will see each other again, you have my word. Buona fortuna, (good luck) my oldest friend. And take the money. On your meager salary you will need it.
Leonardo:My patron has been arrested after all.
Outcome
Cesare Borgia is arrested and taken away, and Rome is completely liberated from the control of the Borgia.
Trivia
Ezio can use only the Apple and no other weapons. He can however, use his recruits.
The timer will automatically stop once all guards in the vicinity have been defeated. La Volpe, Machiavelli, Bartolomeo and Claudia will then proceed to the gate. The cutscene wil not be triggered unless Ezio goes to the indicated spot.
It is possible for Bartolomeo to appear dead or unconscious if he has been fighting for too long.
