+ Show Spoiler +I'm almost certain that Lucretia was in on the entire plan. Illythia deceiving her only ally in the house doesn't make a lot of sense.

About Illythia and Lucretia... + Show Spoiler +What you both need to remember is that she did it because she knew she'd regain Glabbor as an ally, and he is certainly far more powerful than Lucretia. But I don't know whether Illythia did backstab Lucretia or not... just saying its entirely possible.
I get the feeling that Lucretia knows all about it though and that they planned it from the start. She or Illythia could of murdered Glabbor but no, she almost forced that dagger into her hand.

Well that was simply awesome!

Awesome time awaits next episode, spoilers based on historical events below:
+ Show Spoiler +Spartacus, trapped on the mountain, is going to be besieged by Glaber. Spartacus, trapped, makes ropes from vines and rappels down to the bottom of the mountain and slaughters Glaber's entire army. Historically speaking, nobody knows whether Glaber dies or not, but either way, expect epic epic times :D

Amazing episode, definitely my favorite of the season, definitely could have been the season finale.... Oh and just wondering, is there at least another season???
+ Show Spoiler +Only thing that slightly ruined the episode was how Varinius dies  Illythia and Glabber are just saying how they will get vengeance on him and then all of a sudden he randomly dies, albeit in epic fashion

+ Show Spoiler + I wouldn't call it random. Glaber's force starts bombarding the temple *knowing* that Verinius is inside. I thought it was pretty deliberate.
My real question was how the fuck they got catapults there so quickly. They'd have to be disassembled, carried through the woods in pieces, re-assembled on the spot, etc etc. You can't just drag catapults through a freakin' forest.

Sometimes logic has to be defied for awesomeness I guess. =P Personally I wonder why the guy fighting with a stick kept fighting with that god damn stick even after 50 romans, all carrying swords, have died around him.

Uh, how do you guys think Illythia knew about Seppia's plot to kill him? Lucretia, aka the girl who gave Seppia the idea, told her about it so she could stop it.
Trust me.. at the end of the finale... Lucretia and Illythia will have the last laughs. Lucretia is trying to rid herself of Ashur, and Illythia is trying to rid herself of Glaber.

This. I think that Glaber and Asher are both in trouble. Asher is a near certainty, Glaber is a tossup.... I just wouldnt trust anything Illythia says but maybe she does want an alliance
Edit: But it may also be possible that Lucretia had no idea Illythia was going to prevent Seppia from killing Glabber
Also I still wish Glabber would have looked Verinius in the eyes and killed him

Pretty sure Glaber is going to die considering next season they got Crassus coming down. I do wish they let Ashur live though, he's the best bad guy on the show in my opinion.

I gotta say, it was oddly very satisfying to see Glaber and Illythia make up.

It's a TV show man. Calm yourself.

Its pretty weird I have a guilty pleasure of rooting for Ashur.

His character is designed to draw some sympathy from the viewers.
He's really in a lot of ways the same guy Spartacus is. He's just a slave, trying to make his way through the world. It just so happens that he does it through cunning and deceit while Spartacus does it through violence as well as leadership
It's all a matter of perspective. One of the things i like about this show is that for each of the characters in it, you can come up with a reason for liking or not liking them. It makes them feel human.

Pretty sure Illythia used Lucretia to set up the assassination then stopped it to resecure glabber. Lucretia definitely wanted glabber, and through him ashur, out of the way.

I definitely agree with this, Lucretia has nothing to gain through saving Glabber and alot to gain through killing him

Nah, I still think Lucretia and Illythia hatched this plan together. To me it was even pretty obvious that this was going to happen. Remember they never said they want Glabber dead when they were talking to each other. They always said things like "if saying please doesn't work, I want blood". Never mentioned his name. That's how it always is with those series
