He plans to remove Lepidus from power once he has served his purpose.
Explanation:
In William Shakespeare's play "The Tragedy of Julius Caesar", the character of Lepidus has just three dialogues in the whole play. He was to be one of the three members of the Second Triumvirate, after the death of Julius Caesar.
Antony plans to use Lepidus as much as he can but he thinks that he is not worthy to be a part of the new Second Triumvirate. In Act Act IV scene i, we see the three members of the Second Triumvirate - Antony, Octavius and Lepidus deciding who should be killed for the murder of Caesar. Lepidus's brother and Antony's nephew must also die for their involvement in the murder. After that was decided, Antony sent Lepidus to go and get Caesar's will from his house. After he left, Antony remarked to Octavius that Lepidus is just meant to obey orders and not be a leader, not fit for being a part of the Triumvirate. He said that "<em>He must be taught and trained and bid go forth, A barren-spirited fellow, one that feeds On objects, arts, and imitations</em>". This shows that he plans to remove Lepidus from power once he has served his purpose.
