Our heroine Holly arrives in Egypt near a pyramid where she meets up with Scoop Shuttleworth, a journalist, who is looking for the tomb of the Nile Queen. They enter the pyramid to look for this episode's hidden magical item, but when T-Bag and T-Shirt follow them into the pyramid they get lost and end up back at the start. When Holly finally finds the item, a crystal, it gets stolen by a walking mummy!
