Alley Oop's insubordination sets him at odds with Cleopatra, who threatens to have him face a court martial. He points out he is the highest ranking officer, so there's no court he could be tried by. When she threatens him with hanging, he asks her will she put the rope around his neck? Her courtiers advise she follow a historical example, paraphrasing 2 Samuel 11:15. She sends Alley Oop off with a light column to the frontier of hostile territory far south of Alexandria.
