The Borgias 1x01
Lucrezia: Do you think our father can win, Juan?
Juan: Are we allowed to dream, Mother?
Vanozza: Your father found ways to love and care for us in this house, but I’m not sure as pope he can do the same.
Juan: As pope, he can do what he wants.
Vanozza: Are you sure? Kings and popes and emperors belong to their peoples, not to their families.
Cesare: So, we allow the election to run its course, and he won’t be pope.
Vanozza: What other course is there? It’s in the hands of God.
Cesare: It’s in the hands of the College of Cardin
Now the whole family was introduced. Though Juan seems to be the favorite son or even child of Rodrigo he somehow isno’t as connected as Cesare to the rest of the family.
He is standing while the rest of the family is sitting together. It is pretty clear that he’s also not as smart as his brother.
