** Marcus knowing that he needs to know his opponent tells the audience how capable a villain he is. His "final test" with his gladiator trainer is a thing of awesome, as well.



** Caesar again in "Decimation". He's been sent by Crassus to infiltrate the captured city and find out what he can about Spartacus' strategies. He ''immediately'' zeroes in on one of the less-than-content members of the rebel army, convinces him that he's on their side. And, with just a few words, incites an already restless mob into killing every single Roman help captive and driving a deep wedge between Spartacus and Crixus, who had allowed the massacre to happen. Crixus and Naevia are going to go off on their own, Spartacus' forces are divided...and Caesar ''smirks.''

Added DiffLines:

*** Ceasar actually holds his own against all three of them, notably fighting off Agron and Donar ''at the same time.'' Not one then the other and back, but both trying to kill him at once. Ceasar keeps maneuvering to keep them from flanking him, gets them in the way of each other's attacks, and generally fights exactly like you're supposed to when facing two opponents at once.

** Gannicus caving The Egyptian's skull in.

to:

** Spartacus briefly fights the Egyptian, who up until then has bested everyone including Crixus and Oenomaus. The battle is very sort and one sided with Spartacus forcing the Egyptian to retreat.
** Oenomaus cutting the Egyptian across the abdomen and then punching the wound with enough force to stagger the Egyptian. Then he says "I owe you pain!"
** Gannicus caving The Egyptian's skull in. Especially the scene before when he attempt a roundhouse kick that gets caught and then follow with the his other leg which knocks the Egyptian to the ground.


Added DiffLines:

** When Crassus and his troops investigate the breach, they are met with spears and are forced to retreat. Whilst they are escaping Crixus boasts "The mighty Crassus shows f*cking arse as he FLEES from us!", followed by triumphant jeers from the Rebels.


Added DiffLines:

** During these fights Spartacus fights two Romans and when one of them manages to cut him across the cheek he discards his swords and fights both the armed men with nothing but his bare hands.
** Gannicus trumps Spartacus by challenging three Romans and beating them without so much as a scratch.

** Spartacus sending his men to pretend to be envoys of Pompeii to lure Crassus into a trap. This isn't why this moment is awesome. It's awesome because Caesar ''sees through their disguises'' and convinces Crassus to send Tiberius instead, thereby getting his revenge for his rape in the previous episode.

* "Mors Idecepta" gives us another from Crassus, who anticipates Spartacus sneaking into his camp with a few soldiers and makes sure that they find poor Donar, dead and crucified with the episode's title ("Death is undeceivable") carved on his chest. The rebels just make it out alive, Naevia heavily injured. And then Spartacus tops that moment when he realizes that there are barricades over the wall to give the illusion of a massive army behind them. Cue CurbStompBattle of the few hundred Roman soldiers and Spartacus and his army finally free from the ridge.
** The way he even breaches the trench dividing the wall and the barricade is awesome, if morbid: [[spoiler: The frozen bodies of their comrades who died during the violent snowstorm are piled high until the survivors can walk on top of them.]]
* Kore should be mentioned here. Tiberius warned her that if she told his father about how he raped her, no-one would ever believe her and she would be punished. She manages to get freaking Caesar to sneak her out of Sinuessa so she can tell Crassus the news (keeping in mind that for all Crassus loves her, she's a slave and is actively plotting against her master's eldest son)...only for him to choose the worst words possible (which amount to "The bond between my son and I are absolute and nothing can ever break that"). Faced with the choice between risking Crassus' wrath if she tells him the truth, or keeping quiet and staying in Sinuessa to serve under Tiberius and be raped indefinitely, Kore [[TookAThirdOption takes a third option]]...[[spoiler: and joins Spartacus' rebellion, killing the sentry placed outside Crassus' tent.]]
