A gent muscles in on another's territory
A young chap waits (impatiently) behind some rocks in order to reclaim his clothes and his girl, both momentarily discarded prior to a bathe in the sea.

Anthony flies into a rage and has the servant whipped. One wonders what fate is to befall the smart chap taking advantage of the chance to chat to his Cleopatra
