In this act, Brutus begins to realize that Cassius is driven by personal ambition and self-interest rather than the collective good of Rome. He recognizes that Cassius's decisions may be influenced by greed and corruption, contrasting with Brutus's own idealism and commitment to honor. This growing awareness creates tension between them, as Brutus grapples with the implications of Cassius's character on their conspiracy against Caesar.
What else can I help you with?
Is the relationship between Brutus and Cassius based on convenience or actual friendship?
In the beginning of the play, Brutus is trusted by Caesar, and they have a filial sort of relationship. But Brutus plays a large role in Caesar's assassination. Caesar's dying words are, "Et tu, Brute?" (you too, Brutus?) because he can hardly believe that someone he loved and was close to would murder him. Brutus reasons, "Not that I loved Caesar less, but I loved Rome more." He thinks that killing Caesar was for the greater good, and if you've read the play, you would realize that Brutus's fatal flaw is his nobility. He overthinks everything, always searching for the noble, honorable, "right" thing to do. It was also mentioned that perhaps Brutus was truly Caesar's son, of an affair. At Brutus's funeral oration, Antony says Brutus was "Caesar's angel," although it is never blatantly explained why Caesar trusts and loves Brutus so much, then is betrayed. Although Brutus's honor to Caesar is strong in the beginning, it wavers enough for him to take part in Caesar's murder, but then he sees the effects because of it. By the end of the play, Brutus sees that Rome in the hands of Antony, Octavius, etc is worse than it would have been under Caesar's ruling, and Brutus commits suicide.

Did Cassius understand men better than Brutus?
Yes. Cassius was more cynical but also more realistic. Brutus had very high standards of morality which did not take into consideration the danger of those who were immoral. For example, Cassius presses to have Antony killed with Caesar, and Brutus says no, he doesn't want to kill more people than are needed and that he is sure that Antony will pose no problem after Caesar is dead. Cassius' estimation of Antony is correct, and if Brutus had listened to him they wouldn't have been lying around Philippi with swords in their chests. Of course, if Brutus understood people better he would have known that the Republic was never going to be re-established and there was no purpose in killing Caesar in the first place, except to replace him with another Caesar.
