Deal or No Deal
This scene is based on Graves. His Livia is a bit more vocal about her son's refusal to protect her image, but the outline of the deal is the same. In the ancient sources, Livia does play a direct role in Plancina's acquittal, but there is no evidence for the letter, Martina in her custody or that Piso's suicide is part of the deal.
