The Borgias Re-Watching Party #68: Season 2, Episode 1 - "The Beautiful Deception" | Thurs, September 24th(4:00PM USA Eastern; 11:00PM Europe Eastern)

The Borgias
Season 2, Episode 3: "The Beautiful Deception"


The Borgias Re-Watching Party #68: Season 2, Episode 3: The Beautiful Deception ~ Thursday, September 24th(4:00 PM US; 11:00 PM Europe Eastern)







The effects of the murder of Lucrezia's lover Paolo, father of her child, are played out. Cardinal Della Rovere begins to scheme to depose the Pope, attempting to enlist several houses of religious along the way. King Charles, still sick with the "Neapolitan fever", returns from Naples and attempts to sack Rome, at while scheming with the Sforza family, intending to breach her walls by the use of his cannons. Pope Alexander VI attempts to have cannons cast to repel the assault, only to learn that all of the foundries in Rome could cast only one or two in the several days required for King Charles's host to reach Rome. Cardinal Cesare Borgia, attempts "The Beautiful Deception": enlisting city artisans, he has plaster mock-ups of cannons cast, which are then used to successfully bluff the King of France into riding past the Eternal City.

You're welcome, Arinna.


Rodrigo has agreed to give Paolo a Christian burial. He knows he was murdered, but he still refuses to admit it was Juan, even though both he and Cesare know it was him.

Oh, so now Juan is being all penitent? Yeah, way to beat around the bush, Juan. Just say you killed Paolo.


Now Rodrigo is laying down the law to Juan. He's been banished to Spain. Check out the look on Juan's face.

It's only proper that Cesare performed the burial ceremony for Paolo.

"You must cry for me, for I have no more tears." Or perhaps it's because her crying sounds so fake, Lila?

Yes, thanks Alex!

And just like that, she feeds her baby? Ugh the writing makes her manipulative using her own baby to get her father to give her lover a proper burial. Lame beyond belief!

Micheletto is in Naples watching Prince Alfonso being stuffed. OMG, that taxidermist is sewing his face up.

Is Caterina sure about the Spanish appetite for war? The Spanish empire is what actually defeated King Charles in the actual history.
