Asterix's shout brought Obelix running, closely followed by Turlough with the Doctor and Claudiminix bringing up the rear. Both were deep in conversation. As they entered the hut, they looked in amazement. In the time it had taken them to cross the village, Turlough was halfway through his boar, Asterix had just finished his and Obelix had demolished half a dozen boars. "Greedy" thought the Doctor. As they sat down, Claudiminix brought up the subject of the Gaul's strength.
"I know," said Turlough, beaming, "If I had been this strong back home, who knows what would happen" and he went outside again and starting lifting a nearby rock. The Doctor was intrigued by Turlough's statement and wondered what he meant but his attention was was diverted by Claudiminix who said "If I was as strong as you, then I could make my way back home" and he started to cry.
Asterix whispered something to Obelix and announced that they would see the druid. The Doctor took Asterix aside and advised caution stating his concerns over the Gaul, but Asterix dismissed them and led the Gaul towards the druid. The Doctor stayed behind to chastise Turlough for trying to arm wrestle the blacksmith.
A short while later, Asterix came charging back into the village shouting, "Get your magic potion!" The Doctor groaned loudly. "The fools!" he said, "they've fallen right into the trap!"
An hour later, despite the Doctor's best attempts, Claudiminix was standing by a cauldron of steaming potion with the rest of the village looking on. The druid handed Claudiminix a bowl and he drank the contents. "Vegetable Soup!" he announced, "but I don't feel any different!"
"Try lifting that rock!" the druid suggested pointing to a very large rock. Claudiminix looked at the rock in sheer disbelief, but went to pick it up and found that he could lift it, very easily. "Whoopee!" he announced and threw the rock into the air. The Doctor pointed to the rock and told Turlough to watch. "Isaac's being proven right some 1,600 years before he was!" as the rock landed on Claudiminix.
Claudiminix was rescued from under the rock as the chief arrived, followed by the bard a few seconds later. "Let the dancing commence". Turlough grabbed the Doctor. "Come on!" he said, and they took their positions one line above Asterix and Claudiminix.
"Take your places" said the bard, and started fiddling. "Step to the left and step to the right!" he commanded. The village started clapping in time to the music and even the Doctor started getting carried away. "Left row forward, right row back," continued the bard, "Mark your places; greet your partner" and each partner shook each other by the hand, the Doctor bowing for extra effect.
"Pull your partner's moustache!" was the next instruction. "Well" said the Doctor, "that's us out!" and he and Turlough stood back up again and saw Asterix pull Claudiminix's moustache clean off. "Er" Claudiminix mumbled. "A detachable moustache?"
"You're a Roman spy!" shouted Asterix. "Now do you believe me?" said the Doctor. The music suddenly stopped and Turlough made a grab for Claudiminix, but with the magic potion in him he was unstoppable and knocked Turlough to the ground along with two other Gauls and the chief. Whilst Asterix and Getafix argued about who gave him the potion, Turlough had a more worrying fact to relay. "He's kidnapped the Doctor," he said, pointing to the Doctor's hat on the ground.
