Cleopatra demonstrates before the class how to avoid booby traps, only to be tripped up after she assumes the exercise was complete. Brian explains results of his research to Akila and Cleopatra. The Egyptian gods may have created the tablets that sent Cleopatra to her far future, where she is prophecized to defeat Octavian. Finding the tablets will give her a way home, but if Octavian finds them first he could send her home on his own.
