• Before leaving the city, Coriolanus says a quick goodbye to his wife and mom at Rome's gates.
• The women are boo-hooing, which totally bugs Coriolanus. He orders them to man up, especially his tough mama.

• His pal Cominius offers to go with him but Coriolanus shrugs him off and sets out on his own.
