The Borgias, Season One

Cesare Borgia:
You loved my father?

Vanozza Cattaneo:
... Fool that I am, my son, perhaps I love him still.

Cesare Borgia:
Can it be... cured?

Vanozza Cattaneo:
No. It can be endured, embraced- and suffered. (pause) You are suffering, my son?

Cesare Borgia:
... I have met a woman, Mother(sits across from Vanozza, who smiles slightly)... who is married.

Vanozza Cattaneo:
And she makes you suffer? (Cesare sighs) Well, perhaps she suffers, too.

Cesare Borgia:
She does. (pause) But, if I can rid her of her impediment-

Vanozza Cattaneo:
She will be yours?

Cesare Borgia:
(shakes his head) To endure life, like you did, Mother?

Vanozza Cattaneo:
You could leave the Church (Cesare scoffs, she smiles humorously) And displease your father... if you dare.

Cesare Borgia:
(pause, leans forward) I fear nothing, Mother.
