When the Tardis arrives outside the walls of Troy, the Doctor and his friends become unwilling participants in the ending of the Trojan War. Achilles assumes the Doctor to be Zeus, but Odysseus knows better, and gives the Doctor two days to find a way to defeat Troy. Paris, meanwhile, brings the Tardis into the city. Vicki emerges from it, takes on the name Cressida and falls in love with Paris' brother Trilus. A self-proclaimed foreteller of the future, Vicki must find a way to defeat the Greeks to save her life and Steven's. But how can she hope to counter to Doctor's plan, which involves a large wooden horse? Should she even try?
