in here while Charlie takes his place.

And you, Professor,

are my hole card...

in case some of your followers

get in the game.

Let's find Semu and see if he'll

exchange our lives for the medallion.

No, it's too late.

Why?

When I saw the mummy, I got scared

so I coughed it up. He's got it.

Oh, no! What are we gonna do?

How are we gonna get out of this?

Ask Klaris. He got us into

this. And he's gonna get us out.

I know how to get in good

with Semu.

I'll bury him in.

You take his place.

It's moving.

It isn't now.

Come on, let's get him.

We'll take Klaris out and bury him

so those crooks can't steal him.

Then I'll come back

and take his place.

Have you decided to disclose

the secret of Ara's treasure?

Whether you talk or not, you're

still our passport back to Cairo.

I'll take the detector.

You bring the explosives.

There. Throw him in there, and

cover him up so he can't be seen.

Hey, boy!

Are we in luck! There's enough bandages

here to make me look like Klaris.

Get a load of this.

Let's get out of here.

I don't think I hit him

hard enough.

It's the Professor!

Help me lift him up.

Set him down.

What do I do now?

Untie him!

As soon as we have a chance to

get in good with him, you spoil it.

Take my hand, and we'll still

try to save the treasure.

Come on, Charlie.

We've located it.

He's not here. What do you

suppose happened to him?

I don't know,

but we're not waiting.

Look, we've better find

a place to hide. Come on.

Hey, Abbott,

what are you...

Come on, Costello.

The coast is clear. Hurry up!

No, don't try to

scare me, Lou.

Maybe there is something

to this curse of Klaris.

Charlie disappears and...

You've stalled long enough.

Either light the fuse,

or I will.

Have you got a match?

Get that torch.

Costello!

Costello!

Charlie!

Stand where you are!

Three of them.

Which one of you is Charlie?

Step forward, raise your hand.

We must hurry. Even now we may be

too late to save the treasure of Ara.

Klaris! You will destroy us

and the temple.

Back up!

Hey, where have you been?

Hey!

I was thinking about leaving.

Get rid of it!

Here you are.

No! No!

What is it?

Dynamite.

Dynamite!

The secret of Princess Ara

has been revealed...

and Klaris is destroyed.

All that remains now

for my people is the legend.

Why not let the whole world

know of the legend?

I have a way of keeping the

memory of Klaris alive forever.

How can you do that?

Wait a minute. This is the

opening night of the Kafe Klaris.

And everybody's dressed but

you. I'll be dressed in a minute.

Wise guy, eh?

Do you know how to play one

of these? Why, certainly.

Show me.
