Previously on Theodosia... The past year has been pretty intense.

It all started when I found a strange amulet in Egypt.

And now I have magic powers.

I made some new friends. And enemies.

Chaos is coming.

We will tear down this world

and from the ashes we'll build a better one.

But we stopped them.

In your face, Serpents of Chaos!

THEY LAUGH

I'm hoping life can go back to normal now, so I can have some fun.

You can see why they call it the Great Pyramid.

It is pretty great. So great.

Er, Will, what did you do with it?

You're not the only one that can do magic, Theo.

Show me that!

Show what? What did you do with the pyramid?

You mean...

..that pyramid?

Wow, OK, yeah. That was pretty great.

Theo? Theo?

Hmm? You OK? Hmm?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

No, I was just thinking about the Great Pyramid.

You want to come with us, don't you?

Actually this time I'm perfectly happy staying at home

and hanging out with my friends.

You're not fooling me. I know how much you love Egypt.

I do, of course. It's a magical place.

But you can have too much of a good thing.

You're just saying that so I won't feel bad leaving you and Henry.

I'm not. Why would I want to

when our favourite cousin's coming to be our governess?

Nice try. You haven't seen Nigella in years.

Yeah, but I remember her baby-sitting.

She'd let us stay up late eating sweets.

Oh, it's going to be so much fun. But not too much fun.

There'll be lots of studying.

Don't forget your grandmother is in charge of the museum

and she'll be keeping a close eye on you.

OK.

Lots and lots and lots of studying then.

THEY LAUGH

Gah!

It's only a game, Safiya.

Sorry. Got a letter from my parents this morning.

Apparently it's time I learned the finer points of being a princess.

They want to send me to some la-di-da school in Switzerland.

Can't imagine why.

You should tell them my cousin Nigella is

the World's Greatest Teacher and they'd be mad to move you.

Is she any good? Well, she was educated at Oxford

and she's travelled all over the world.

Perfect. Let me write this down.

Where's a pen when you need one?

Use my latest invention. It's a sound recorder.

You can mail them a voice message.

Henry. Your inventions don't always work. Just bring a pen!

Ah! Good morning, Mother.

So good of you to take the reins while we're gone.

So let's start with the layout of the museum.

On the ground floor, we have Roman, Greek, Persian,

some of the late dynasty Egyptian pieces and...

Alistair, after your father died I ran this place for years.

I know what I'm doing.

Yes, but a lot has changed since then,

so if we go through this checklist it'll help bring you up to speed.

Well, don't just...

There we go, all sorted.

Now, why don't you make yourself useful

and help Henrietta with the packing?

Yes, Mother.

Oh, er... You there. What's your name again?

It's Clive, Your Ladyship. For the millionth time.

I've got a little job for you.

Testing, testing,

this is the voice of Henry Throckmorton,

checking this works for Princess Angry Pants.

Hey. Where do you think you're going?

MYSTICAL WHISPERING

Harold Throckmorton.

Nice to see you, Grandad, but what are you doing hidden down here?

MYSTICAL WHISPER: I watch over the secret.

- DOOR OPENS - I have a little job for you.

Want a game?

Stop daydreaming about Will.

I wasn't.

OK, maybe I was, just a little.

You were in front of the Pyramid again?

What do you think it means?

It means you two are taking way too long to get together.

We defeated the Serpents of Chaos weeks ago.

What are you waiting for?

Well, you know, he's just been so busy working at the Penny Arcade.

There hasn't been... the right moment.

So make the right moment.

On his break tomorrow,

ask him if he wants to go for a walk in the park.

I can't do that.

Sure you can. Just two friends, taking a stroll.

Nothing wrong with that.

OK, then what?

Then, as you're walking along in the sunshine,

nice and relaxed, you casually take his hand,

and before you know it, you'll be...

Stop!

THEY GIGGLE

There he is!

He used to be right there by the entrance to greet the visitors.

You know, I never knew why he had it moved to the stores.

It's such a good likeness of him.

What was he like?

He was the most extraordinary man I've ever met.

It was your grandfather who taught me how to ride a camel.

You've ridden a camel?

Well, I went on all his expeditions before I had your father.

There.

Careful with him.

STRAINS: This thing's heavy.

He's not a thing, he's the founder of this museum!

So treat him with more respect.

Now, come with me, I've got another job for you.

Got something to say, Grandad?

WHISPERS: I watch the secret.

How about now?

Do you think we're doing the right thing?

Well, I could try jumping up and down on it...

I mean about going to Egypt. We'll miss Theo's birthday.

Has she said something?

No, but she seems distracted.

I thought she seemed a lot happier these last few weeks.

Maybe she's putting on a brave face?

Ah!

Success! No turning back now.

I'll talk to her, I promise.

You have to hear this.

RECORDING: Testing, testing, this is the voice of Henry Throckmorton,

checking this works for Princess Angry Pants.

Excuse me?! Not that bit.

Hey. Where do you think you're going?

"Princess Angry Pants"?! No, listen.

FAINT WHISPER: I watch over the secret.

Doesn't that sound like someone whispering?

No, I don't hear anything.

It's probably broken, like all of your other inventions.

Hey, they're not broken, they just... don't work yet.

Listen, I think it was coming from the statue of Grandad.

Oh, yeah, sure. Look, seriously,

Henry, you're worrying over nothing. Right, Saf?

"Princess Angry Pants"?

Why don't you tell me what you really think of me?

But... I think you're perfect.

Put the aspidistra over there,

it'll jolly up this whole area.

Where's Harold?

No idea, Your Ladyship.

Well, he can't exactly have walked off by himself.

It was probably one of the kids messing about.

Don't be ridiculous. He's far too heavy.

Put him back right now.

We should ban all the kids from the museum,

starting with the Throckmortons.

There you are.

Your grandchildren are quite the handful.

Will...

..there's been something I've been wanting to tell you for a while now.

The thing is... um...

..I...

It's hard to put it into actual words, but erm...

..I have, I have had this feeling, erm,

you know, inside, like ind...

..indigestion or a...

..or a stomach-ache?

SHE SIGHS

Yes, OK that was bad.

Stomach-ache.

SHE CHUCKLES

- KNOCK ON DOOR - Permission to come aboard, Ma'am?

Aye, aye, me hearty.

THEY CHUCKLE

Is everything all right?

Sure, why?

Mum sent you, didn't she?

No. No, no, no, no. Of course not.

I thought I'd just, um...

..I'd pop in and you and I, we, um...

Yes.

Yes, she thinks, um, you're upset about us going.

I'm fine, Dad.

I mean, obviously I'm going to miss you,

but, you know, it's only for a few months.

It's not too late to change our plans.

Go. Have fun. But do watch out for the scorpions -

there's loads in the Valley this season. Really.

And you watch out for your grandmother.

She also has a sting in her tail.

I know, it can be scary. Very scary!

THEY LAUGH

I love you, Theo.

I love you, Dad.

That's my girl. Good. good, good, good.

Oh, you know...

..Mum's bark is worse than her bite.

When I was a kid, she was a lot of fun.

But then Dad died and she got angry at the world for taking him away.

Being alone all these years has... well, hardened her heart.

So try to go easy on her, yes?

Oh, I'll be good. Mm.

Most of the time.

Night-night, Theo.

Goodnight.

SHE SIGHS

Yup. I'm going to miss them.

Clive?!

Yes, Your Ladyship?

Ohh...

Let me be crystal clear.

When I ask you to do something,

I expect it to be done. Immediately.

I swear, he was right here when I left...

Hop to it, man!

Oh, hi, Saf. Didn't expect to see you here.

I was a bit harsh on Henry yesterday.

He was only trying to help.

Yeah, he didn't come down for breakfast this morning.

I think he was hiding in the stores from Princess Angry Pants.

Off to see Will?

I'm more nervous than I was when we fought the Serpents.

Don't be. You're Theodosia Throckmorton,

the girl with the magic touch.

Thanks, Saf.

Go get him.

RECORDING: I watch over the secret.

"I watch..."

RECORDING: I watch over the secret.

I knew it was one of you lot moving him!

Look, he was there when I came down this morning.

I thought maybe you moved him back... Stay here

at the scene of the crime, whilst I tell your grandmother.

I'll say I saw you moving the statue.

Well, I'll tell her you're lying.

And who do you think she'll believe?

Pull that stunt again and I will tell her.

You won't always have your royal helper with you.

Thanks. I owe you big time.

Look, about the whole Princess Angry Pants thing, I...

Yeah, about that.

Just kidding.

Now, what is going on with you and this statue?

Here's your food.

My bad.

Let's make your food appear real quick.

It's ready. Wow, thank you.

That's fine, enjoy.

Impressive trick. You need to teach me that one.

There's nothing I can teach a real magician.

Well, I'm taking a break from that stuff.

Going to try to be normal for once.

There's nothing normal about you, Theo.

Oh, thanks.

You know what I mean.

I, I was just going to go for a walk in the park.

Wow, you really do know how to have a good time.

No, no. I mean, erm...

No, no, sorry. What I meant was that you - you can park,

go to the park with me.

You know? On your break?

I would love to.

But we're too busy.

Oh, right. Of course.

Some other time.

Unless you've got a spell to help speed things up?

I did read about a time spell and they're very risky.

I mean, I could break the universe. And I don't, I don't want to...

I was joking!

I was joking.

Oh! Oh, got it! Good one.

What are you doing?

It's my new trick.

Making the dirty dishes disappear.

On no account

are you to move my husband from that spot.

Do I make myself clear?

But I...

Yes, yes, Your Ladyship.

There's a good chap.

Our boat is sailing this afternoon.

But I thought you were going tomorrow?

No, there's a storm coming. They want to stay ahead of the weather.

Oh, fuss and nonsense.

Are you all packed? Almost.

Almost. Clive have you seen the maps of the dig site?

Yes, they're in the office. Shall help you find them?

Please do. Please do.

Have you seen the children?

Neither hide nor hair, I'm afraid.

I need to tell them we're leaving today.

They can't have gone far.

You take upstairs, I'll search this floor.

There are scratch marks coming from the lift.

So you're saying the statue got in the lift,

rode down here and slid across on its own?

We've seen weirder things happen.

What's that?

It must've been hidden behind the statue.

Hello.

"I watch over the secret."

That's the whispering I could hear.

It's hollow. There's something behind here.

This lock must be the way to get in.

The hieroglyphs must spell out a word.

"Open sesame"?

Let's try... Kemet.

It's what the Ancient Egyptians called Egypt.

We make a good team. Yeah, I think so.

Hey, Will. Table over there wants to order.

Oh, I'm on it!

Thanks, Theo.

Wait a second. When did I hire you?

You didn't. She's just giving me a hand.

Just this one. This one, I'm afraid, refuses to help.

You know what? I've got this. You two take a break.

Really?

Yeah, I can handle this. Easy.

Hmm! Wait for it.

Just point me towards a menu.

Thank you.

And again.

Cheers, mate.

Do you think he's going to be OK?

There's only one way to find out.

Let's go.

Let's try "Sphinx."

The Ancient Egyptians called it "Horemakhet."

So, there's four panels,

five hieroglyphs on each, that's...

..625 possible combinations.

So what you're saying is this could take a while?

- SHE SCREAMS - Whoa!

I knew it. I was right.

I think we should get Theo for this.

What's the code, Grandpa?

WHISPERS: I watch over the secret.

Wait a second. "I watch over the secret".

He's talking about himself.

The statue is watching over the secret.

We don't need Theo. You've cracked it.

Look. He's staring at the shelf over there.

Whatever was here has gone.

No, wait.

"D 317. On Display".

There's D 326.

And here's D 304. It must be around here somewhere.

Theo? Henry?

Oh, no. Clive must've told on me about the statue.

Safiya.

Safiya, have you seen Henry and Theo?

No, but if I see them, I'll send them your way.

Thanks, Safiya, you're an angel.

OK, you can come out now.

Henry?

D 317.

Look at that cartouche.

Four hieroglyphs.

It's the name of the pharaoh Khufu. He was buried in the Great Pyramid.

His name must be the combination.

Here's an important factissimo for you.

My ancestor Hemiunu designed the Great Pyramid.

Wow, that's very interesting.

Now can we go open the mysterious secret door?

This is better than washing dishes.

Yeah, how do you reckon Artie's getting on without us?

Oh, he'll be fine. He's probably burnt the place down by now.

Yeah.

Theo.

Mm?

You can't give up magic.

Magic? What do you mean?

I'm going to teach you that trick I did. What trick?

The one in the Penny Arcade.

That trick.

You have to learn how to hide the object.

Now you can see it...

..now you don't. Oh.

Show me again.

STRAINS: He's so heavy!

Grandad, you really need to lose some weight.

No, no! No, no, no!

Whoops.

Double whoops.

Granny is going to kill me.

Oh!

This is so much harder than real magic.

You can do this. Come on, try again.

It tickles.

DOOR GRINDS OPEN

Hey, what's wrong?

Oh, nothing, just a bad feeling.

What kind of feeling?

I think something bad's happened at the museum.

I know that look. We should hurry.

This must be Grandad's secret study.

Look at all this cool stuff. Why'd he keep it hidden away?

What is that?

What? This is so cool!

Henry, stop!

Do not go in there!

Stop being so bossy.

RUMBLING

Uh-oh.

Booby trap.
