The reaction the suitors have after Antinous's death is in option: They try to convince Odysseus that since Antinous had been killed, the others should be allowed to go free.

They argue she was the traitor and Eurymachus ask Odysseus to let them all free that they will pay all they owe him regarding the food and wine they got from his place.
