It's Easter and Alexander makes plans for a celebration to end his pious fast even as Della Rovere's assassin ascends to the position of the Pope's taster; Lucrezia's lover asks for her hand in marriage but her father dismisses him and his request; Juan's wild behavior threatens the life of Lucrezia's child, forcing Cesare to make a chilling decision about his brother.

The plot may have dipped a bit compared to the previous episode, but it was still far from uninteresting. I couldn't help but chuckle at the crucible scene — it felt like a much-needed wake-up call for those priests who still haven't figured out how to do some soul-searching.
