The Pope dispatches Cesare to the castle of Catherina Sforza to demand her allegiance, and Cesare deals with the cunning Sforzas decisively; Alexander disguises himself and travels to Florence to hear the fiery preacher Savonarola, not realizing that Della Rovere is trying to recruit the rebellious holy man to his cause.

The momentum keeps going strong. While I appreciated the action in the previous episode, this time it was the scheming that really stood out to me — both by the Pope and against him. The dialogues in Forli were also a highlight for me. Another five stars from me for this one.
