The TARDIS lands in Roman Britain in the 2nd century AD, to be greeted by a guard. Amy comments on how the Romans, given that they were her favourite history topic at school, are unlike what she had been expecting languagewise. The guard takes them to "Cleopatra" - who actually turns out to be River Song in disguise. River shows the Doctor the painting, which given that he had retrieved a fragment of the TARDIS from a [[Time Field]] in the Silurian city in 2020, concerns the Doctor. River's previous warning that the [[Pandorica]] would open also concerns him, and the Doctor decides to look for it.

The trio arrive at [[Stonehenge]] to look for the Pandorica. The Doctor uses his [[sonic screwdriver]] to search, and River uses a device from the 52nd century. The Pandorica is tracked to the underground, and they find the opening by night - also, by which time, nobody had noticed the Cyber-head on the ground, which begins to reactivate. | |||

The Doctor finds the Pandorica, much more than just a legend, a large cube-shaped device with mechanics on the sides. There are many levels of security to this machine, and they are being de-activated one by one from the inside out. [[File:Pandorica.png|thumb|right|The Pandorica]]The Doctor speculates on what it could have been designed to contain, and Amy says how similar it is to Pandora's box, her favourite childhood book. River detects a signal coming from the area - six pillars lining the entrance are transmitting outwards, and she detects at least ten thousand ships in orbit - she cannot detect any more since signals overlap and confuse her scanner - potentially there could by a million objects above the sky, among which are a [[Dalek saucer]], a Cyber ship, a Sontaran ship, a Slitheen vessel and a Judoon ship, all presumably after whatever the Pandorica contains. | The Doctor finds the Pandorica, much more than just a legend, a large cube-shaped device with mechanics on the sides.

The Doctor decides to call on the Romans to help, and River goes back to use her influence as "Cleopatra" to talk them into helping. However, the legion commander has arrived with news that Cleopatra is in Egypt - and dead. River attempts to talk the commander into helping, eventually resorting to using her disintergrator pistol to demonstrate her power. However, before the commander can react, a volunteer arrives. | The Doctor decides to call on the Romans to help, and River goes back to use her influence as "Cleopatra" to talk them into helping.
