Anthony arrives on the scene, cuts Caesar out with Cleo and runs away with her down the Nile in his two-oared galley. Caesar sics his pet alligator on the fleeing couple, the boat breaks in half, and Mark manages to capture the reptile. As the two rivals gamble for Cleopatra's hand, she runs off with Ramesis in his Ford chariot, but the machine breaks down and Cleo, like many other girls since, has to walk home.
