The Dolphins of Laurentium: Part Two is the eighth episode of the first season of Roman Mysteries. In this episode, Flavia, Jonathan, Nubia and Lupus are on a mission to find the lost dolphins that have been stolen by pirates. They had almost succeeded in their endeavor but sadly, one of the dolphins was still trapped in the pirates' den.
The episode continues from the previous episode, where the kids had discovered that the dolphins were being kept in a secret underground chamber in Laurentium. They had successfully rescued two of the dolphins but the third one was still missing. The group realized that the pirates had taken the dolphin with them when they fled Laurentium.
Determined to find the last dolphin, Flavia comes up with a plan to convince the pirates to hand over the dolphin, promising them a valuable treasure in return. However, when they meet the pirates, it becomes clear that they are not willing to give up the dolphin so easily. The crew and Captain Lucius were convinced that the dolphin was worth a fortune, especially since it was an albino dolphin.
As the kids try to negotiate with the pirates, they come across some surprising revelations. One of the pirates, a woman named Prisca, seems to recognize Nubia. She reveals that Nubia's mother, who had been presumed dead, was actually alive and had been sold into slavery. Prisca asks Nubia to help her find her mother, and Nubia is torn between helping her friend and staying focused on the mission.
Meanwhile, Flavia and Jonathan discover that the pirates had been hired by a wealthy man to steal the dolphins. They realize that the man was likely the infamous animal collector, Pliny, who had a reputation for stealing exotic animals. They confront Pliny and demand he return the dolphin, but he refuses. In one of the most intense scenes of the episode, the group is forced to flee from Pliny's soldiers to avoid being captured.
Back at the pirate's den, things take a turn for the worse when Prisca betrays the group and takes Lupus hostage. As the kids try to rescue Lupus, they come up with a dangerous plan to free the last dolphin and bring an end to the piracy in Laurentium.
Overall, The Dolphins of Laurentium: Part Two is an exciting episode filled with action, adventure, and unexpected twists. It showcases the intelligence, courage, and resourcefulness of the young protagonists, who work together to solve the mystery and save the animals. It's a great episode that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats until the very end.
