* After Maximus saves his life in the arena, Hagen starts to treat him with comradery. He even takes a bite of Maximus' food for him to see if it has been poisoned. The amusing fakeout that Hagen gives Maximus and Juba signifies the start of the trio's friendship after that.

** Not as heartwarming if you know your real history, in which the death of Commodus lead to a year in which next five Emperors died within the year, ending the Golden Age of Rome and actually making it even more of a dictatorship. But then, that happened because the real Commodus was a good ruler with loyal Praetorian Guards, so who knows what might happen in this alternate timeline?..
