Spartacus’ disgrace at surrendering to Crixus in the arena leads Batiatus to punish him by demoting the Thracian to fight in the “pits of the underworld,” a hellish, vicious subterranean battle arena where the crowds are frenzied and anything goes. When Naevia seemingly rejects Crixus’ necklace gift, he initially misunderstands the reason for her refusal, and continues his secretive sexual relationship with Batiatus’ wife. Meanwhile, the drought and Batiatus’ money problems continue, and Lucretia ends up selling her new emerald necklace at a loss in the markets. Spartacus somehow survives the pits, and despite losing Batiatus’ winnings, he regains the favour of his dominus after helping to foil an assassination attempt by two slaves, and is restored again to gladiator status.
After a poor showing in the Arena, Spartacus is consigned to the Pit, a place of pain and suffering.
