Machiavelli: Looking for Ezio. What of Cesare and Rodrigo?
Ezio: Cesare rode off before I could get close to him and Rodrigo was somewhere else entirely.
Machiavelli: That is odd. Rodrigo is usually at the Castello.
La Volpe: Very odd indeed.
Machiavelli: What a waste. No offence.
Caterina: None taken.
Ezio: With Cesare gone to Urbino, we must build our forces.
Machiavelli: I thought we intended to strike now?
Caterina: Impossible. Cesare commands a massive army in Romagna. You would never reach him.
Ezio: I say we work here. In Roma. Erode the Borgia’s influence while restoring our own. And in fact, I want to begin right now. Volpe, bring Claudia and Bartolomeo d'Alviano here. Machiavelli, meet me outside.
Ezio turns to walk out of the Guild and passes the doctor.
Ezio: Take care of her.
