The more I hear about that guy,

the less I like him.

And then freedom,

he promised me,

if I did his evil bidding.

- So now...

...will you turn the

Wishbones back?

Do that, only they

themselves can.

Really? But how?

Only when happy they are...

...human they

will become again.

Well, I guess they'd

better get used...

...to being monsters.

Renfield!

The fate of the world...

...rests in my hand.

The innocent snowflake...

...engineered into

a deadly weapon.

Behold what this tiny flake...

...alone can achieve.

Now imagine billions

of these flakes...

...pressed together into

an icy sphere.

With that I will destroy

the Sun itself.

And the Earth will be plunged

into a deadly ice age.

Mum?

Mummy! I found footprints.

Footprints?

Well, we just have to follow them

and we're saved.

- Uffta.

- Uffta.

Mummy...

- Yes?

- These are our own footprints.

Oh...

Mhat?

- Everything will be okay.

How? Look around.

We're in a giant,

enormous sandpit!

You're making it sound

as if this is my fault.

Well, you are the one who gave the

amulet back to the evil witch.

Everything always has to be your way...

...and we just have to deal with it.

You don't actually think I'm good

at anything, do you?

No. Well you're great at making us look

hideous and completely monstrous.

You know how to ruin our lives

better than anyone.

And I'm gonna be smelly

and ugly for ever!

Why can't I have a daughter

who is nice...

...who doesn't beat up her brother

who doesn't flunk school...

...and who doesn't make me feel

like an actual monster?!

I'm so very sorry, sweetie.

Then maybe you should find another daughter.

- Fay. Come back!

I'm counting to three.

One, two...

three...

87...

88...

89...

I don't think she's coming back.

Max, I'm sorry, but that really

doesn't help at all.

Oh, great. Fay's not here

so you're yelling at me.

I'm through with this family.

I'm a lone wolf now.

Max, I'm counting to three.

One...

two...

741...

742...

Oh...

Why is it whenever I need

you most, you stand there and...

...don't say a word?!

- Uffta?

Well it's too late to start now.

- Uffta?

I can't deal with this any more!

Just go away! Move!

Uffta.

Memma.

We're better off apart.

Emma has left her family.

I might have just been given

a second chance.

I'm going to fly

back to my Emma!

Renfield,

pause Operation Ice Age.

Oh, I'm so hungry.

I need blood.

Dinner time.

And just when you think things

can't get any weirder...

You are trespassing in my desert.

...you meet a talking whirlwind.

Nobody enters my...

Welcome to Egypt...

...beautiful creature.

Here it's hot.

Finally some shade.

Cut it out.

I don't need a haircut.

No-one messes

with Weremax!

Melp.

Melp.

Whose great idea was it

to have a...,

...fashion photo shoot

in the desert?

Girls.

I say.

Come a little closer, honey

Come to me

Whoa!

Gosh,

you surely startled us.

What are you doing out

here all alone?

Are you alright, dear?

You look a little pale.

And you look delicious.

My darling needs me and

here I am.

May I?

Oh, my, what a man.

Come a little closer, honey

Come to me

am Pharaoh Imhotep.

You're Johnny Depp?

- Im-ho-tep!

Oh, okay, great and sandy one.

You are very beautiful.

Me? - I have lived

for more than 3,000 years...

...and in all that time I have

met no-one as beautiful as you.

Come, let me show you

the true power of the mummy.

You, too, can do this.

Yeah.

You simply have to wish it.

So nice.

- Uffta!

Welcome home.

Wow. Are you sure

you've got enough room?

Would you give me

the honour...?

Hold tight!

Stay with me, Emma

and make me the happiest...

...immortal plasma-dependent

fiend on Earth.

Hey, anything on four legs

stays on a lead!

Who's on four legs?

Hi.

It's okay,

I won't hurt you.

Scary people are lonely because

nobody wants to be around them.

Wow, this is amazing!

Welcome to my home.

For thousands of years...

...I have waited for a woman

like you.

One who is special.

One whose beauty shines brighter...

...than the sun.

One with whom I can...

conquer the world.

Er, conquer the world?

I'm a lazy boy

I watch the sun shine

Lighting up

the peerless peaceful sea

Moliday!

Ladies.

Uffta?

I'll take it from here, girls.

You're certainly taking your time

to decide, my love.

That's going to hurt

in the morning.

So, darling,

will you be mine?

They're better off without me.

I accept.

Then I am more happy than

any man living or dead

...has reason to be. Renfield!

Show my fiance to her chamber.

And prepare my Lazarus bath.

I think I'm starting to

sag a little.

Now that we have finally

found each other...

...we have the immense power

to rule the world like gods.

No-one will disobey

our commands.

And all will worship your divine,

immeasurable beauty.

I don't think so.

Do not contradict me.

Will if I want to. No way you can force me.

- Oh, yes, I can.

Oh, you sound exactly

like my mother.

You still have much to learn.

Education is not really

my thing. So bye.

This is mine?

Renfield is such a chatterbox.

What a mattress!

Why was I always so strict?

I'm a lazy boy

I watch the sun shine

Lighting up

the peerless peaceful sea

More.

Help!

Melp?

Meow.

Dad.

I think you might need

a little mirror time.

I, I, I can't...

...I can't

be seen like...

...this.

Beauty doesn't last.

Now that I've found you,

I will not let you go.

I'm not going to let you take

over the world.

You must come with me.

Who else will accept you...

...looking like you do?

It doesn't matter what anyone

else thinks, Fay.

It doesn't matter what

I look like.

It matters

who I am inside.

If you will not come

with me willingly...

...I will force you.

Ow!

Leave my sister alone.

Die!

Hm?

Thanks for trying to save me.

That was really brave.

You're welcome. And we really need to

talk about your choice of boyfriend.

Uffta. Mash.

Okay, he is way scarier

than I am.

Mash! Immommebb.

You know I only have cucumbers

in my bath!

Although drowned bats are

a welcome addition.

You!

Be cool.

She's on our side.

- What?

True, it is.

- I've fallen for your lies far too many times.

We can trust her. She brought

me here to you, didn't she?

Well...

that's true.

Dracula forced her to put

the spell on you.

She was his prisoner.

- Dracula did that?

Monster he is, who will stop at

nothing to get what he desires.

I guess I didn't want to see

who he really was.

Now I may never see

my family again.

It's alright.

For you, change that I could.

Who knew dad had it in him?

I guess he just

needed a holiday?

Oh, I missed you so much.

Are you okay?

Yes. Thanks to dad.

You should have seen him

fight the giant beetle.

You fought a monster?

And won.

What are we doing here?

- And what...

...is she doing here?

- Here to help, I am.

She brought us

all together.

Emma...

...you mustn't

leave this castle.

So he can speak.

- Yeah.

If you don't...

...marry my master,
