Erm, episode five of Euphoria season three may contain a huge clue about Cassie and Nate’s ending. Viewers are theorising that the speech Cassie recites for her audition is foretelling their doom. I’m scared now.<\/p>\n

In the latest episode of Euphoria<\/a>, Cassie<\/a> auditions for a minor role on Lexi’s TV show LA Nights. She randomly recites a speech from Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra. That’s the play based on Cleopatra VII (the real last queen of Egypt) and her situationship with the Roman military leader Marcus Antonius. The exact extract which Cassie performs is from act five, season two. The Roman leader Caesar Augustus has thrashed Antony in a battle, and conquered Egypt. Antony has killed himself. Cleopatra makes this speech to a Roman servant.<\/p>\n

She says: “Sir, I will eat no meat. I will not drink, sir. If idle talk will once be necessary, I’ll not sleep neither. I’ll not drink, sir. If idle talk will once be necessary, I’ll not sleep neither. This mortal house I’ll ruin, do Caesar what he can. Know, sir, that I will not wait pinioned at your master’s court, not once be chastised with the sober eye of dull Octavia.<\/p>\n

“Shall they hoist me up and show me to the shouting varletry of censuring Rome? Rather a ditch in Egypt be gentle grave unto me. Rather on Nilus’s mud, lay me stark naked and let the water-flies blow me into abhorring. Rather make my country’s high pyramides my gibbet and hang my up in chains!”<\/p>\n

If you can’t be asked to read that much Shakespeare, here’s a speedy summary. Cleopatra is saying she would rather kill herself and wind up dead in a ditch by the River Nile than be taken prisoner. She would be paraded through Rome and humiliated, particularly by “dull Octavia”. By the way, Octavia is Antony’s previous wife, who Romans saw as a competitor to Antony’s favour.<\/p>\n

Some Euphoria viewers have pondered whether the writers picked this speech for Cassie because it predicts her and Nate’s<\/a> ending. If Cassie is parallel to Cleopatra, that would make Nate equivalent to Antony, and Maddy their version of Octavia. Does this mean that Nate will get beaten up in yet another fight, then die? If Cassie lost Nate plus all her money and influence, will she choose to kill herself rather than run the risk of Maddy making jokes about her?<\/p>\n

I’m scared for the finale now.<\/p>\n
