The Plot: Posing as a goddess, Barbara decides to change history because the Aztecs are not nice enough people.
We Like: The fact that, all things considered, the villain is absolutely right and it's the heroes who act innapropriately. And the Doctor's first hint at romance (eat yer heart out, David T.).
We Dislike: Ixta, the incompetent Aztec warrior who acts as Tlotoxl's second-hand man. I mean, Ian defeats him by twisting his goddamn thumb, for crying out loud.
