As penance for their crime, they must battle IN the Colosseum! A fight with gladiators, and lions, and various monsters of Greek mythology which are just two or three different animals smashed together! If they can survive the cattle man and the chicken lizard and whatever the heck a manticore is, they will be set free and given a ticket to New Zealand, where all shows set in Greece are filmed.

The colosseum is Roman though, not greek

Eh, it's not all that different. Hercules, Heracles, let's call the whole thing off!

manticore were in fact persian, and known to the romans all the same. (and ArugalaZ, it was a monster with a human head, body of a lion, and a tail either like a venomous porcupine or that of a scorpion.)
