Amy leans on the Pandorica, but she is grabbed by the wires coming out of the Cyber-head, which has worked its way down the steps; the arm shocks the Doctor unconscious. The head grabs Amy's arms with its wires and opens, ejecting the skull of its last occupant and tries to take Amy's head. Amy smashes the Cyber-head against the Pandorica until the wires come off her arms. As Amy watches the head flail around, it fires a dart into her neck, which she promptly removes. The head tells Amy she will be assimilated, prompting her to ask "You and whose body?" At that moment, the Cyber-body arrives; reattaching its head, it advances on an increasingly drowsy Amy.

She takes cover in a side chamber, where she hears it banging on the doors in its attempt to get in. However, when things grow silent, she wonders if the Doctor woke and stopped it. Suddenly a blade comes through the door, barely missing her head and the doors open to reveal the Cyberman stuck to the door with a Roman sword. Seeing the centurion who offered River his help on the other side, Amy asks who it is. The centurion steps into the light and removes his helmet to reveal [[Rory Williams]]. Amy finally succumbs to the dart's effects and faints.
