In this episode, we delve into the political turmoil of the 1970s, focusing on the slow vote counting in Portugal that threatens the dominance of the socialist party. As the early returns from the first democratic election in fifty years trickle in, a shift in political power seems imminent, with rural voters turning away from the ruling socialists. Meanwhile, in the United States, the Democratic and Republican parties are embroiled in their own battles for delegates, with Hubert Humphrey and President Ford making significant gains. The episode also touches on the personal and political tensions between Henry Jackson and Vice President Rockefeller, highlighting the intricate web of alliances and rivalries that define the political landscape.

We also explore the dramatic adaptation of Shakespeare's "Antony and Cleopatra," bringing to life the tumultuous love affair between Mark Antony and Cleopatra amidst the backdrop of Roman and Egyptian political intrigue. As Antony grapples with his loyalty to Rome and his passion for Cleopatra, the episode captures the essence of Shakespeare's tragedy, illustrating the timeless nature of love, power, and betrayal. The narrative is interwoven with contemporary issues, drawing parallels between historical events and modern-day political dynamics, offering listeners a rich tapestry of drama and insight.
