When you hear that Starz original series "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" will air probably one of their more sexually explicit episodes this coming Friday, March 19, its time to prick up your ears, grab your cafe con Leche and gather up: You will not be disappointed in Episode 109 titled, 'Whore.'

Roman women of patrician birthright certainly had more freedom that the working classes and the slave subset, but make no mistake, they were not free to go willy nilly cavorting in any old orgy scene, as their husbands might.  Proper Roman women had to employ lots of subterfuge to get their freak on.

Enter Lucretia, who knows all about that urge. Thanks to the insufferable house guest who seems to never leave, Ilithyia, a gaggle of Rome's elite females have descended on Batiatus' ludus, in the giddy hopes of getting closer to the wares. A deal is struck, and in doing so Lucretia will hope to gain an Ace up her sleeve (if she had sleeves).

Once again, our Spartacus is caught in a web of feminine wiles and intrigue, and must play the part of supplicant as Batiatus breaks the news that Spartacus is to service the richest woman in Rome.

Michael Hurst directs this sizzler for the series.

Friday, 3/19 at 10pm et/pt on Starz.
