- This again?
What's going on?

- The Eye has changed you,
Theodosia.

Changed? But how?

Who are you?

- You face a world
of power and peril.

A world of magic.

You must be strong.

You must protect.

Protect? But protect what?

Wait, don't go!
I have so many questions.

Theo.

Theo, wake up.

Theo.

And mum and dad call me
a snoozehead?

You're going to miss breakfast.

- I was dreaming.
Wait, no, not dreaming.

It was a vision.
It was a vision.

- I had a vision.
- Of delicious breakfast?

- Believe it or not, Henry,
there are actually

more important things
in this world than breakfast.

Like what?

Like protecting the museum.

- Which is your problem
because....

- Because there's bad magic
everywhere.

Or do you want to be
shabtified like Safiya?

- Yeah. Maybe not.
Okay, I'll help.

So half this stuff's magic?

Yep.

Magic...

And dangerous.

We don't want any of
the visitors touching anything

and getting cursed.

Which is why we need to put
all the magic stuff away

or protect it.

- So less "battling the forces
of darkness"

and more "tidying up"?

Just go with it.

I don't like the look of you.

Yep, you're going
in a safe place.

Henry.

Less chewing, more working,
baby brother.

Hey. Don't call me baby.

Perfect.

No one will touch you
in here.

And this amulet should stop
any magic from escaping.

Good boy.

Ow, no, what are you doing?

No, I'm sorry,
that's--that's my muffin.

- Theo, wait up.
- Mmm. Tasty.

But we need less snacking
and more making things safe.

Come on, Henry.

That's our floor covered.

Mission accomplished.

What is that?

- Don't you know an Egyptian
false or "ka" door

when you see one?

Magnificent, isn't it?

Dangerous, more like.

It's drenched in magic.
We need to make it safe.

- Anyway, what're you both
hanging around here for?

Shouldn't you be in lessons?

I'd have thought
you'd have wanted

to see your father,
at least.

He's waiting for you.

A quite remarkable recovery.

- Wait, Dad's up?
- Well, why didn't you say so?

Let's go.

- Achilles wanted to humiliate
Hector at that point,

so that's why he chose to do
what he did because--

- Dad.
- Ah.

Squeezy does it, Theo.

Good.

Morning.

Look, I'm really sorry
about the whole

"turning you into a shabti"
thing.

I...

- Is this seat taken?
- Ah, it's all yours.

Watch this.

- Whoa!

That's proper magic.

- Thanks, Artie,
but it's just a trick.

I'm off to learn
some real magic.

Hey. What about my apple?

Wait.

Is this okay to eat?

It's not, like,
made of wood or something?

It's your apple, Artie.

I just borrowed it
for the trick.

- Well, how do I know
it's the same apple?

- You could have switched it.

You mean like that?

You're good.

I know someone who's better.

She can do things
I could never do.

- Someone seems
a little jealous.

- I should be, after all the
practice I've put in, but...

with this girl, it's different.

She seems good.

She's put a spell on you.

Bye, Artie.

Enjoy your apple.

Mmm.

Hm.

- My knowledge
of Ancient Greek,

it's always been
my Achilles' elbow.

So I thought we'd start there.

What do you say, troops?
A little light translation?

Yeah, great idea, Dad,

but, you know,
since I'm already fluent,

do you think
I could kind of finish

that really important job
I was just doing?

- Mm, I'm sure Henry could use
your help, he's really rusty.

It's all Greek to me.

- Draper's here,
Mr. Throckmorton,

see about the display backing
for the roman coins.

- I asked him
to come this afternoon.

Right.

Theo, you've always done well
in Greek.

Okay if I leave you in charge?

Her? In charge?

Okay, does your dad know
she curses innocent people?

- Listen, I would love to stay
and chat but, you know,

I've got a cursed door
to deal with.

- Unbelievable.
How dare she interrupt

when I was just
in the middle of ignoring her?

- You can ignore me
if you like.

Hey. Wait up.

- Hey.
- Oh.

School over already?

Ah, I wish.

What're you doing here anyway?

- I came to see you.
- Yeah?

- Yeah.

The other day was intense,
wasn't it?

- Just a little bit.

You know, if you ever need
a magic trainee

or apprentice or whatever...

Thanks, but I mean,

I've barely got the hang
of it myself.

- See?
And that's exactly why

you shouldn't be doing it
on your own.

There she is.

Still normal size, I see.

- No thanks
to our magical maven.

At least she hasn't turned you
into a pottery princess.

I did try and warn you.

So it's my fault?

- Maybe we should
step back a bit.

- If you'd had just
worn the amulet.

- Look, accessories are what
separate us from the animals.

- Wait, move!
Stop leaning on that!

Help me.

What do you want me to do?

They were both wearing
the amulets like you said.

Henry?

Can you hear me?

- What?
- How?

- The door.
We came through that door.

Hey! Let us through!

- Will? Henry?
Can you hear me?

What have you done?

But I thought these things
were supposed to protect us?

- Well, there's nothing in the
spellbook at all about this.

The magic must've been
too powerful.

That's just great.

You don't get how awful
being cursed is.

Think of the worst thing
you can imagine, okay,

and then double it.

- Like being stuck here
with the two of you?

This isn't a curse, anyway.
It's different.

It's much more powerful
than that.

Dad's coming.
Act natural.

- Hello, hello.
Breaktime already, is it?

Help me pick a display backing
for the roman coins.

Um, I like this one.

I think it would make
the silver denarii stand out.

- Mm-hmm.
- What do you think, Safiya?

You have to tell him.

- Shh.
- Tell me what?

Is everything okay?
Where's Henry got to?

Oh, you know Henry, he...

- Got sucked through
that magical door

where he's probably been shrunk
or turned into a snake

or much, much worse.

- We were just chatting
about Egyptian mythology.

- That's all, actually.
- I see.

Well, I think that might be
enough excitement for one day.

So if you could
get back to class,

continue with your work,
please.

Ah, ah, ah, ah.

You need to rein it in, Theo.

We won't impress Rami
by filling his niece's head

with your magic nonsense.

- Train has already
left the station.

What was that?

- I said
back to the translation.

Good. Good girl.

Theo! Safiya!

- It's no good.
They can't hear us.

Where are we?

- There must be another
trap door in the museum.

But this isn't the museum.

It's not cold
or mildewy enough.

We've been magicked here.

- Seriously?
Oh, man.

Something like this would make
a vanishing trick a breeze.

- What should we do?
- I don't know.

Head towards the light?

- Mummy! Mummy!
- Dude.

- She can't hear you.
- No, an actual mummy.

Whoa!

Really gross,
but also very cool.

- Just like an Egyptian tomb.
- How'd it get here?

- Uh-oh.

- We're in Egypt?
Actual Egypt?

- No way.
- Completely way.

- I always dreamed
of seeing Egypt.

That's a good look.

Real magic is the best.

These walls are amazing.

- Careful, you're starting
to sound like my sister.

- I can see why
she's so into it now.

Look at the detail.

- Great, I'm stuck
with another history spod.

Think about it.

The people who made this
could do real magic.

- Yeah, but they didn't
have electric light.

Science is the new magic.

Wait, are we in a desert?

An actual desert!

- It's epic.

- I can't believe
I'm really here.

- Welcome to
the Valley of the Kings.

This is near Mum and Dad's dig.
I know just where to go.

You do?

Shouldn't we stay close
to the magic door thing

in case it opens?

- Do you want to see Egypt
or not?

- Yeah, but I don't wanna
be trapped here forever.

It's not gonna take long.

And trust me,
you're gonna love it.

Come on!

Step away from the books.

Just nothing.

Nothing, and nothing.

- Stop that. We need
to actually do something.

- Look, knowledge is
a powerful weapon.

I'm arming myself.

- Fine.
In that case, how can I help?

- By going back to class
and covering for me.

I've got this.

Egyptian royalty, remember?

My great-great-great-
great-great-great...

oh, you get the idea--

my very great granddad

is supposed to have designed
the Pyramid of Khufu.

Egypt is kind of my thing.

- Uh-huh.

So you're an expert on Ancient
Egyptian Ka doors, are you?

- Well...

Egyptian Ka doors, not so much.

- What even are they?
- Look.

Tell you what,
how about you leave me

to see what I can find
in these books?

I can read, you know.

- Ta-da.

- I thought we were going
to see the Pyramids?

- Oh, they're miles away
at Giza.

But besides,
got one of the wonders

of the world right here.

Falafel.

- You're telling me
we walked all the way here

in the hot sun for this?

- Well, I just thought--

- Oh, man.
They smell incredible.

You any good at haggling?

- Mate, I'm amazing.

- It says here that Ka doors
were how spirits

travelled from the worlds
of the living to the dead.

That much we knew already.

- Yeah, I mean,
duh, obviously...

- It seems like
a sort of portal or gateway.

Did you say portal?

- It's probably nothing.
- No, go on.

- My mum would tell me bedtime
stories about a magic portal.

- See, now,
we're getting somewhere.

- She loves talking
about the Pharaohs.

"Our long-lost cousins,"
she calls them.

She said they had
a magic portal

that could whisk them off
to faraway lands.

- Sounds pretty cool.
- Yeah.

The only downside was
if you stayed too long,

you'd be trapped on the
wrong side of wherever forever.

Forever?

- But it's just
an old fairy tale, right?

- Okay, Dad'll be finished
with the fabrics soon.

Can you cover for me?

What are you gonna do?

- Try and open
that magic portal.

Good luck.

Mmm.

Amazing job
on the haggling, Will.

I'm loving the extra falafel.

Not really my color.

- What do you get for the girl
that has everything?

Want my advice?

Play it cool with Safiya.

Be a bit more...

Mysterious.

If you could see yourself.

- If you can find the ball,
we pay double,

if not, we get a freebie.

Okay.

Ready?

That's why they call me
The Great Houdini.

Yeah, I'm still working
on my stage name.

- You know who'd love
one of these?

both: Theo.

- You know my sister
pretty well.

She's pretty easy to read.

Said nobody. Ever.

Stop leaning on that!

Eureka.

There's some Ancient Greek
for you, Dad.

Oh, stupid, normal-length arms.

A bit more to the left.

- Oh, Clive.

Can you lend me a hand
or a foot?

Ha!

I'll take that as a no.

Hm.

Everyone, watch this hat.

Something strange
might happen.

Three, two, one.

Thank you very much.
Thank you.

Thank you.
But wait.

There's more.

For my next trick...

Apparently, I'm going--going
to turn my hand into stone.

My hand.

- Stone?
- Yeah.

Okay. Let's get out of here.

Um, sorry, folks.
Time for a show intermission.

- We need to go home now.
- Tomb time?

Definitely.

No magic portal?

Not yet.

Actually, I could really
use your help.

- Clearly, but is this
the best time for a makeover?

- All right,
if you put your hand

on this symbol here,
then I can...

- Wait, what about
the pull of the portal?

- What about it?
- We won't be much use

to Will and Henry
if we get dragged through too.

Wait. You're right.

- No need to sound
so surprised.

Okay, time for a new plan.

- Hurry up, Henry.
It's getting worse.

Think yourself lucky.

I can't feel my hands
or feet at all.

- Hold up.
I'm full of falafel.

I'm "falafull."

You're "falafoolish."

You really want
to end up a statue

for the rest of eternity?

We gotta move!

- Fingers crossed
that's secure.

- Fingers crossed? What--

You're ready?

- Actually, maybe this isn't
such a good idea.

Okay, let's go then.

On three, okay?

One, two, three.

I can see them.

Will! Henry!

Theo. Help.

Come on, Henry.

We've got this.
Just a few more steps.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Grab my hand!

Almost there.

- I can't move.
- Henry, you have to move.

Oh, you're so close!

What is taking so long?

What do we do?

There's no way
we can move them.

They're turning into stone.

- Okay, we can
if we work together.

Yes, we have to.

- Okay.
If it'll help the boys.

You ready?

- As I'll ever be.
- Okay.

Are you okay?

What even happened?

It's all right, I've got you.

- No, no, no!
The portal is gonna close!

No! No, it can't!

The magic's gone.

- Don't reckon we'll be
going through that again.

- Whew.
- That sounded worse

than Theo singing.

Safiya, you--you saved my life.

Not exactly playing it cool.

- Finished for the day,
have we?

Ah, you must be
Will the magician.

Did you make
their schoolwork disappear?

- Oh, about
the tra-translation, we--

- "Speak,
Memory of the cunning hero,

"the wanderer,
blown off course time and again

after he plundered
Troy's sacred heights."

- Shall I go on?
- Excellent work.

Well done, Safiya.

Well, after a performance
like that,

I suppose I owe you all some
time off for good behavior.

Have fun.

What?

A girl can like nice clothes
and be smart.

- Well, you saved our skins,
again.

Look, I'm really, really sorry
about what happened yesterday.

- Let's start over.
Friends?

I would like that.

- So come on, you two.
How was Egypt?

How did you know?

- It's written
all over your "fez."

- Hey, no need to snatch.
I actually got that for you.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Oh, thanks, Henry.

I love it.

- And, uh, I thought of you
when I saw this.

Yay, presents.

Huh, a shabti.
That's funny.

Well, you shouldn't have.

You, uh, really,
really shouldn't have.

Well, today's been epic.

Teleported.
To Egypt.

I mean, sure we nearly got
turned into stone...

Because magic's dangerous.

That's why I need to master it.

I mean,
who knows what's out there?

Who knows what it could do?
