refused to believe that Dionysus is a god, that he tricks him into coming to Mount Cithaeron to see the worshipping women who had supposedly gone crazy. Ultimately, Dinoysus had other motives for the trip as he manipulated Agave, Pentheus’ mother, to kill Pentheus without even realizing it. When Pentheus agreed to accompany Dionysus on the trip he didn’t realized Dionysus’ alternative intention. Due to his unawareness, it caused him to become undermined and slaughtered.

Dionysiac values are vindicated by the illumination of the consequence of a mortal acting so impiously towards this god: a gruesome, violent death. Dionysus is more powerful than Pentheus, something the mortal does not reconcile, and he pays the price for this irreverence towards Dionysus. The people of Thebes do not understand than Dionysus is a god and does not abide by Earthly concepts of justice and fairness. The violent conclusion also serves as a means for Dionysus to exact revenge on the non-believers of Thebes in that if Pentheus hadn’t been excessive in his hatred for the Bacchae, and had joined Tiresias and Cadmus in their worship of Dionysus, he would have evaded a terrible amount of suffering.

Even Pentheus is a sort of clandestine Dionysiac. He was riveted by the stories he has overheard of the bacchanalias that the Maenads by all accounts partake taking place in the mountains.

Although Dionysus seemed to be the more rational one, he was the one who turned very aggressive, when Pentheus’ refused to follow his actions .
