A hunchbacked Spartan outcast, Ephialtes, begs to join. Leonidas refuses – he can't lift his shield high enough. "Ungalukku maanam illai. Aanaal, engalukku maranam maanam." (You have no honor. For us, death is honor.) Enraged, Ephialtes shows Xerxes a secret mountain path.

His queen, Gorgo, gives him her necklace: "Ithai mattum kondu va. Athai vida, un koodave va." (Bring this back. Or better, come back with it.)
