Challenge: figure out what horrific, embarrassing, and/or nefarious event precipitated these bouts of laughter. 

Livia (picture 1) is laughing at Claudius because she has changed Augustus’ will to benefit herself and Tiberius, she’s also just insulted Claudius and called him a ‘jackass’.
Tiberius (picture 2) is laughing because he is to be allowed back in Rome because Augustus needs him now that Lucius has drowned.
Thrasyllus (picture 3) is laughing in the same scene as Tiberius, but more because his life has just been saved (Tiberius was going to throw him off a cliff if no good news came his way).
Tiberius (picture 4) is laughing with Caligula because they are plotting Sejanus’ downfall which they were informed of through Antonia’s letter.
Augustus and co. (picture 5) are laughing at Claudius’ first wedding because his bride is embarrassingly taller than him. (Same goes for Antonia in picture 6 and Livilla in picture 7.)
Caligula (picture 8) is laughing at the mud-soaked Claudius’ using poetry to try to dissuade him to execute his brother-in-law and his friend.

Correct! 

Thank you.

  • Antonia: [to Claudius] You blockhead.
  • Herod: No. He's not a blockhead. It's we who are the blockheads. If Sejanus had come to us with a proposal like that we would have given him his marching orders. But Claudius knows better. Claudius sways and bends with each little wind that blows.
  • Agrippina: By which you mean he's weak and cowardly.
  • Herod: Perhaps. But at least he's still here.

I Claudius Episode Five

Wherein everybody misses Augustus, Germanicus goes the way of Drusus, Tiberius finds that uneasy lies the head that wears a crown, Piso gets shafted by everyone, especially his wife, Nursie Martina can’t tell wind from poison, and Caligula arrives from the Village of the Damned.
