Summary
In an attempt to prevent a statue being delivered to Cleopatra, the Doctor, Amy Pond and Rory Williams arrive onboard a sailing ship in the Mediterranean Sea, 39 BC. The Roman crew are intent on delivering their cargo – a golden figure in the shape of a man from Marcus Antonius and are about to throw the stowaways overboard when the staue (a Gold Assassin from the court of Xones), is re-awakened. Having crashed on Earth the Assassin, haven woken and repaired itself mistakenly believes Cleopatra to be the Empress of Altari who it has been programmed to kill. As the Roman crew are swatted away by the powerful assassin Amy and Rory find a casket of mercury (used by Cleopatra for her make-up) and manage to get close enough to the Assassin to empty its contents. The mercury dissolves the gold and with its circuitry exposed the Assassin is slowly dissolved. Worried about not having a gift to deliver to Cleopatra the Doctor offers to make a trip to the planet of Voga and pick something up for them – along with some more mercury.
