A rider approaches Spartacus’s camp. It’s Naevia, who has been forced to carry Crixus’s severed head. “I am but pale shade,” she says. She tells the tale of his last stand, and how Tiberius stabbed him from behind as he was fighting with Caesar. She was left alive by Crassus to strike fear into Spartacus and his men with the tale of Crixus’s death.
But Spartacus is looking ahead. He wants to figure out a way to avoid being caught between two armies–one led by Pompey and the other by Crassus.
Tiberius reveals to Caesar that he’s killed off a woman who might have betrayed his rape of Kore. Meanwhile, a representative who says he’s with Pompey’s army arrives and asks Crassus to come to neutral ground for a meeting. Caesar slyly suggests sending Tiberius to meet Pompey. Tiberius, eager to act as his father’s representative, agrees to go. “Caesar at last breaks words that I am moved to embrace,” Tiberius says. But we know that Caesar is up to something. “I wish for him all that he deserves,” Caesar tells Crassus.
Naevia asks Kore why she didn’t kill Crassus when she had her chance before her escape. If she had acted then, Crixus would still be alive now. Naevia says she’s always looking to “balance scale against those who have most deeply wounded heart.”
Tiberius arrives for his meeting with Pompey. But it’s a trick–Spartacus is there waiting. It’s a neat variation on the trick Crassus played on Spartacus in an earlier episode. Spartacus was hoping to snare Crassus, but instead he takes his son prisoner. He seizes Tiberius’s blade, asking if it was the weapon that stole Crixus’s life. He tells Gannicus that he’s not planning on sparing the Roman prisoners’ lives. “I would see them give honor to the dead, in advance of joining their ranks,” Spartacus declares.
Caesar enjoys a trademark Starz sex scene as he revels in his successful maneuvering of Tiberius to his doom. He knew all along that the representatives weren’t from Pompey.
Spartacus gives Tiberius’s blade to Naevia. He plans to stage a gladiatorial contest between his warriors and the prisoners to pay tribute to “The Undefeated Gaul, who shall forever stand so in my eyes.”
Back in the Roman camp, Agron is being held prisoner. Crassus and Caesar mock him, and then have him crucified, with Caesar himself driving in the nails. Caesar promises him he will “never again grasp sword.”
Pompey’s real representatives come to see Crassus. Now he knows the previous messengers were part of a ruse. He’s furious at Caesar and orders him to go to Spartacus’s camp to offer a trade of prisoners for Tiberius. Caesar is being asked to risk his life; his little trick has turned against him.
Tiberius knows that Caesar has fooled him. He orders his men not to fight and give the spectators entertainment. Kore comes to visit him. Tiberius tells her that his father is still in love with her, and she’s says she’s grateful for the news, which she hadn’t dared hope for. But she doesn’t plan to free him. Kore tells him she’ll return at nightfall “when it is your time to die–a thing I long to lay eyes upon.”
The games begin. It’s a reversal from the contests we saw at the beginning of the series. Now the gladiators are in control and the Romans are the human sacrifices–and the entertainment. “This time we shall return favor,” Spartacus declares to the crowd. He wants to honor the dead with Roman blood.
