I'd give it a shot say it involved time travel, a Cleopatra who is actually an alien and Superman using super ventriloquism to save the day.

'The marquis. Well, you know, to be honest, he seems a little bit dodgy to me.'
'Mm,' she agreed. 'He's a little bit dodgy in the same way that rats are a little bit covered in fur."
