| 40 | Well Well Well |
Don't drink the water over at King Leonidas' palace. It has a slight Persian Messenger aftertaste.
| 39 | The Art of War |
King Leonidas explains to the Ephors his ingenious plan to defeat the Persians.
Either that or he's playing Bocce Ball.
| 38 | Sparta's Jean Dixon |
No head of state in the Hellenistic world can make a major move without approval from an Oracle.
Why you'd need to get a go ahread from floating Tori Amos huffing on vapors is beyond me but, hey, I'm not from Sparta.
| 37 | Pee-wee Herman's Bike Lock is Not Jewlery |
There's a lot going on in the scene where the Persian spies bribe the Ephors with gold and "fresh Oracles delivered. . .daily." When the lights inexplicably dim the large villian's eyes glow evilly.
The insanely fit King Leonidas barely made it to the top of the Ephors' Temple alive. Somehow, this Mark Henry-esque Persian spy got up there with no problem.
| 36 | The Queen Likes It Greek |
Now, if the moonlit courtyard was to Leonidas' back, exactly how is it that Queen Gorgo's orgiastic face is so elegantly lit?
This is the only question on everyone's mind during this scene.
