Grumio cooks away in the kitchen. He dreams of being freed. He drinks away his feelings everyday at the tavern. Grumio would do anything for his freedom. Before he was Caecilius' cook, he worked for an old man named Lucrio. He tried to get his freedom by sleeping with his other slave Poppaea, but that got him traded. When he isn't drunk, Grumio plans a way to get freed. After a while he notices that Metella takes liking to him. If he can sleep with her a few times he might get her to free him.
As Grumio cooks in the kitchen Metella walks in and says "Hey Grumio".
"Good Evening Beautiful" he responds.
She giggles nervously as he moves closer to her. Grumio puts his and on her shoulder and looks her in the eye. Her heart almost stops. He kisses her passionately and bites her lip. As he pulls away Metella grabs his hand and drags him to the bedroom. He climbs on top of her and they strip down and aggressively attack each others body. Metella screams "MORE,MORE,MORE!".
Suddenly, Caecilius comes in the house. Grumio leaps out the window with his clothes. Metella quickly puts on her clothes and greets her husband. He has no idea.
