The Doctor, Vicki, Barbara and Ian are enjoying a quiet holiday and have been in Rome for a month now but Vicki is getting bored and when the Doctor offers to take her on a trip to Rome, she happily accepts. Whilst Vicki and the Doctor are away, Barbara and Ian are captured by slave traders and are taken to be sold as slaves. On his way to Rome, the Doctor is mistaken for Maximus Pettulian, who has been murdered, and someone wants him dead.
