Ben and Alicia are in her studio when she gets a package containing a mysterious hat from Egypt. Putting it on, she is immediately possessed and proclaims herself the rightful "Bride of Nephrus". She blasts a wall down onto Ben, and then walks away.When the Thing gets free he goes to Metropolitan Museum of Art for help, and conveniently enough, the hat was stolen from there and the curator (Lillian Templeworth) knows all about the nasty bad guy behind the plot- a staff member named Gamal Hassan. As Alicia conjures a flying boat to take her to Egypt, Ben and the curator also make plans to go to Egypt.Meanwhile in Egypt, N'Kantu the Living Mummy is sitting and moping when he sees Alicia go past in the company of one (Gamal Hassan) who bears a great resemblance to Nephrus, the high-priest who had made N'Kantu into a mummy centuries ago.In Egypt, things come to a head- Ben and the curator hire some camels and go after Alicia, the Living Mummy moves towards the ruins that the villain is in, and Alicia and Gamal Hassan find the stone that will resurrect Nephrus and make Nephrus/Gamal a god...
