Cato the Younger Part VII | The Republic Hangs on a Knife's Edge
Pompey shifts over to the optimates. All those years Cato spent trying to convince others of Caesar's wickedness is finally paying off, as a result Cato becomes difficult to track. The next and upcoming generation of Roman aristocrats start to see Caesar as the threat Cato thinks he is. To them, Caesar must be eliminated at any cost.
