Dialogue

• Egido: I cannot believe you would ust do this.
• Ezio: There is a condition.
• Egido: I knew it.
• Ezio: Keep an eye on the politics of the city. I want you to report back to Maria at the Rosa in Fiore about targets who are helping the Borgia.
• Egido: And what? You'll make them disappear? The pezzo di merda (piece of shit) may hate me, but he's still family. Va bene (okay), we go.
• Ezio: I will follow you to the Banker.

Ezio meets Egido Troche at the first meeting spot, where he eavesdrops.

• Guard: Egido. It seems you are ready to die like a gentleman.
• Egido: I have the money.
• Guard: Oh. That's different, then. The Banker will be pleased. You came alone?
• Egido: Do you see anyone else here?
• Guard: Follow me, furbacchione (wise-ass).

They began to travel to the second meeting place. Ezio follows them, unnoticed.

• Egido: Have you heard anything about my brother, Francesco?
• Guard: Cesare is dealing with him.
• Egido: I hope he is alright. So, what are you going to do with my money?
• Guard: The Banker likes to treat his friends well.
• Egido: (sarcstically) How generous he is.
• Guard: What did you say?
• Egido: Nothing.

Ezio follows Egido and the guards carrying the money chest to the Pantheon. Egido and the guards go inside.

• Guard: Egido brought the money.
• Luigi: Well, well. The Banker has a special meeting planned. I will be delivering your payment. Give it here.

Egido reluctantly hands the money chest over.

• Luigi: Hold him until I get back!
• Ezio: (to himself) I better not lose sight of the money.

Eio proceeds to search for a way inside. The conversation between Egido and the guards continues.

• Egido: Why not release me? I have paid.
• Guard: He is counting the money. Until it is counted you cannot leave.

Ezio acesses the inside of the Pantheon via the opening in the roof.

• Luigi: Now to kill that Senator.

Ezio quickly climbs down and kills Luigi as he counts the money. He then changes into the guard's armor.

• Guard: Everything going well in there?

• Guard 2: We have to go Luigi, or we'll be late!
