Caesar travels to Egypt, where Cornelia implores him to spare her husband. Despite Caesar's initial willingness to grant her plea, the Egyptians, led by boy king Ptolemy, present him with Pompeo's head. Cornelia and Pompeo's son Sextus vow vengeance, joined by Ptolemy's sister Cleopatra, who seeks to depose her brother and rule Egypt alone
