Scene 3:

London, Britain.

Rick and Evelyn bring the bracelet home.

Evelyn: I think the bracelet is some sort of guide, the lost oasis of Ahm Shere.

Rick: Evy, I know what you are thinking and the answer is no. We just got home.

Evelyn: That's the beauty of it. We're already packed.

Rick: Why is this? Give me one good reason.

Evelyn: It's just an oasis, darling, beautiful, exciting, romantic oasis.

Rick: The kind with a white sandy beach and palm trees and cool, clear blue water and we get ourselves those big drinks with the umbrellas. 

Evelyn: Sounds good.

Rick: Sounds too good. What's the 13)catch?

Evelyn: Supposedly it's the resting place of Anubis' army.

Rick: Uh, you see, I knew there was a catch. There's always a catch. How did I know that? Let me guess. It was commanded by this Scorpion King guy?

Evelyn: Yes. But the only way it can work is to 14)revive every 5,000 years.

Rick: Right, and if someone doesn't kill him, then he's going to wipe out the world.

Evelyn: How did you know?

Rick: I didn't, but that's always the story.

Evelyn: The last known expedition to actually reach Ahm Shere was sent by Remises the fourth, more than three thousand years ago who sent over a thousand men.

Rick: None of them was ever seen again.

Evelyn: How did you know?

Rick: I didn't, but that's always the story.

Evelyn: Did I mention there was a pyramid of gold?

Rick: Twice.

Evelyn: 15)Alexandra the Great, sent troops in search of it.

Rick: Great for him.

Evelyn: So did Caesar.

Rick: Yeah and looked what happened to his career?

Evelyn: And 16)Napoleon.

Rick: Evy, we are smarter than him and taller.

Evelyn: Exactly that's why we're the ones who are going to find it.

Rick: Because we're taller?

Evelyn: That's why I love you.

Scene 4:

Hafez and his men sneak into Rick's house to find the bracelet.

(Jonathan just comes back from outside with his girlfriend.)

Jonathan: So then I killed the mummy and all his men stole his 17)scepter.

Woman: Oh you're so brave!

Jonathan: And rich, did I mention rich?

Woman: What do you think I'm doing here?

Jonathan: (Catching a look at the ruffians) Sorry we must be in the wrong house.

Woman: I thought you said this was your house.

Jonathan: No I didn't.

(He wants to run away, but has already been caught by the ruffians.)

Woman: Call me!

Jonathan: Ahha! You're not Schwa's Husband, are you?

Hafez: No.

Jonathan: If you work for Johnny I was going to pay him back on Tuesday.

Hafez: I don't know any Johnny. We are looking for the bracelet of Anubis.

Jonathan: Oh good, good for you good thing to have the old bracelet of Anubis.

Hafez: Where is it?

Jonathan: Ah you're looking here for the bracelet I see well... I have no idea what you are talking about.

Hafez: Mr. O'Connell you try my patience.

Jonathan: Mr. O'Connell... Wait! Hold on a minute! You got the wrong man... (One of the Ruffians puts a knife to his neck) Ah that bracelet yes of course now I remember I lost it in a card game.

Hafez: For your sake I hope not. (Finds the golden cane in Jonathan's hand) It can't be...

Meela: Hello.

Jonathan: Hello.

Meela: Where's your wife?

Jonathan: My wife...oh you mean Evy...well think she went off 18)Badendanall, Tibet or something. The girl's a free spirit. Did I mention I was single now?

(Meela takes out a viper to threaten Jonathan.)

Meela: Egyptian 19)asps are quite poisonous.

Jonathan: It's downstairs there's a 20)safe... the combination is uh.. uh 3, 20, 58, 393 something. It's in the safe downstairs. I told you. I told you!

Meela: And your point is...

Jonathan: My point is, I told you so you wouldn't kill me.

Meela: When did we make that arrangement,uh?
