To continue with their plan, Danny poses as an arms dealer while Lexi looks to Father Chuck to help decipher encoding information. A vital clue leads Danny and Lexi to a castle where the Germans may have hidden Cleopatra‘s sarcophagus. Meanwhile, Hardwick is rescued by Fabi and reveals the details of the hunters of Cleopatra.

Lexi discovers that an Egyptian official may have files related to Farouk and informs Danny about it (lying about her source). Farouk on other hand tries to retrieve the items he stole from the pyramids. The duo rushes to the mountain of Spain in search of a lost train car that may have carried Cleopatra’s sarcophagus before it went missing. But they end up stuck in Casablanca with law enforcement and enemies on their trail.

FBI agrees to let the duo search for Cleopatra only if Danny makes his father reveal the location of paintings that were stolen 20 years ago, with him being one of the accused. In Nazi hunter’s research leads them to Montréal which indicates that the Nazis who were behind Cleopatra may still be alive and hiding somewhere. Gwen becomes fed up with Danny and Lexi and arrests Father Chuck for aiding them.
