Toadie on Trial
After Macky fails in an attempt to escape from the Roman camp, Toadie accuses Portia of being a rebel sympathizer. Meanwhile, Lucius tells his kids the story of Paul’s imprisonment in Rome and his subsequent disappearance. Then he hurries off to deliver food to Isaac and his family, who are now living in mountain caves. On the way, though, Lucius is severely injured in a landslide. Just as Portia turns the tables on Toadie by insinuating that he is the real rebel sympathizer, news comes that Lucius has died – and with his last words, he has adopted Macky, thus making him a citizen at last. Tiberius is uncertain about all this, though, and he rules that Macky should be sent to Rome so the matter can be properly adjudicated. Less uncertain about Toadie, Tiberius has him arrested on the spot, while Portia hurries off to take Lucius’s children to go live with Isaac and Devorah, where they soon hear the story of the Sabbath loaves.
