was lost in transit.

- Unfortunate. They're irreplaceable.

- Quite.

Thank you. Most interesting.

Thank you for calling.

We shall meet again.

- It's a small world. Good night.

- Good night.

Karnak, your servants have failed you.

The task is not yet accomplished.

This will be remedied.

Before the sun strokes the horizon...

...the last desecrator will be dead.

This I promise.

I've served you faithfully, great god,

to the best of my humble ability.

But if it should be that I'm unable

to commune with you again...

...then so be it. We go now.

Our fate and our destiny,

we place in your merciful hands.

Come, Kharis.

This time you shall not fail.

If he'd killed you,

it'd have served you right.

My father and uncle were killed.

I had to do something.

- I found out what you wanted.

- You sure it's him?

Apart from his conversation,

he had the seal to Ananka's tomb.

- What more do you want?

- I'll tell you.

Perhaps he is controlling the mummy.

What you don't understand is,

he's now forced to act and act soon.

I didn't want to force any action

till I was ready.

- Then it might have been too late.

- Can't we get help?

Sergeant's rounding up villagers. All

I have is P.C. Blake and another man.

- Where are they?

- Blake's out back.

- The other man's up the road.

- It's loaded.

As you're a decoy, it's safer

if Mrs. Banning came with me.

- I don't think so.

- We'll have plenty of warning.

It's best, dear.

If anything happens,

fire your gun as a signal.

You stay here. I'll go around

to the front to check up.

All right.

Inspector Mulrooney!

Stop!

Isobel, your hair!

Stop!

Kill her, Kharis. Kill her!

Kill her!

What happened?

He's taken Isobel!

- Where will he take her?

- The house!

Wait, look!

He's taking her to the swamp!

No! Don't risk it!

Don't shoot. You'll hit Mrs. Banning.

- Now what?

- Have the men line up.

Come on, into position!

Isobel! Isobel! This is John!

Tell him to put you down.

Tell him quickly!

Kharis?

Kharis, put me down.

Let's go around.

Tell them to be ready.

Stand by, men! Be ready!

Put me down. Kharis, put me down!

Start walking towards me slowly.

When I shout,

get down as low as you can.

Now, Isobel! Fire!

Come on, Isobel.

You're safe now.
