Explanation: Caesar, in his youth, was kidnapped and held for ransom by pirates. Amongst other curiousities of the story is that when Caesar, then a relatively unknown young man, heard he was being ransomed for 20 talents (620kg/1366bs) of silver, he demanded they INCREASE the ransom to 50 talents! A man has to know what he’s worth!

They should have killed him and dumped his body over the side.
He came back, crucified them, and then took the talents with him.
To be totally fair, pretty sure he explicitly told them he’d do it, too. Could’ve sailed off and enjoyed their loot.
