His coffers depleted by his expensive rise to power, Rodrigo seeks funds through a profitable marriage for Lucrezia that will ally with him Milan, and charges a fee for safe haven in the Holy City to Jews displaced by the Spanish Inquisition; the Borgias host a charming Turkish prince; Micheletto is ordered to rid his patrons of the ongoing threat posed by Della Rovere.

This time, I enjoyed myself (similarly to both previous cases). The creators did not forget about Torquemada's influence on the migration of the population in Europe, and the planned politically advantageous wedding appropriately complemented the plot. It may not have been five stars, but four were more than enough.
