Killer and motives
The killer was revealed to be Flavia Pulchra's assistant Liminius.

Upon admitting to the murder, Liminius said that he did it for Junia Tertia. Liminius has been in love with Junia for a long time, but she rejected his confession 6 times. Later, he found out that Junia in fact loved Scorpius and he was planning to elope with her. Filled with rage and jelaousy because Junia fell in love with a slave instead of him, Liminius stole her laurel wreath and slashed Scorpius's throat. Team handed him to Caesar, who decided to punish him by forcing him to take Scorpius's place as a slave and chariot racer.
