January - April 69 AD
This episode is a biography of the seventh Emperor of Rome, Marcus Salvius Otho. Otho will usurp the throne from Galba but will be usurped himself within only 95 days. Otho's story is exciting for this brevity but also for his complete change of character throughout his life. After all, he started as Nero's best friend and ended up as the diginified Emperor who sacrificed himself to end the civil war.
