LUCIUS FOX: Without a doubt, this will be one of the best museum exhibitions

Gotham City has ever seen.

You can be quite the humanitarian on occasion, Bruce.

lt's commendable. It's inspiring.

-lt's deductible. -The Scroll of Osiris.

Pity only half of it exists.

lt's the oldest Egyptian document known to man.

Yeah.

(GASPS) Oops! l gotta go meet Tammy at Charday's.

Hmm. Such a pity.

(GRUNTS)

Now, let's have a look at you.

Ubu?

RA'S AL GHUL: You could've been my successor, Detective.

lnstead, you will suffer the fate of all mortal flesh.

(GRoANING)

ALFRED: Snake venom?

BATMAN: From an Egyptian cobra. Extremely deadly.

-You're certain it was Ra's Al Ghul? -None other.

But l thought he died in the Pit months ago.

So did l.

That piece of papyrus is obviously very important to him.

-l have to find out why. -Where are you off to now?

Just in case the stockholders ask.

Gibraltar. There's someone l've been meaning to look up.

(GRUNTING)

(GUN CoCKS)

Beloved?

TALIA: My father? Alive?

lt was dear old dad, no mistake.

No, he would have found me. He would have told me he was alive.

l know the face of my most powerful enemy, Talia.

He took quite a risk stealing that scroll from me.

Why does he want it so badly?

lt's part of a map.

My father has the other half.

As long as l can remember he's been obsessed with finding...

Finding what?

The tomb of the ancient queen Thoth Khepera.

lt lies somewhere in the Canyon of Tombs.

Many who've sought it have vanished.

And why does Ra's seek it?

l don't know.

You must believe me.

l have to go after him, Talia. Will you help me?

You are so like him, making me choose between the two of you.

Oh, beloved, why has he forsaken me?

Does he think l've betrayed him?

l can't pretend to know what Ra's thinks, Talia.

The only thing he and l have ever agreed upon is our feelings towards you.

My father used to have a hidden sanctuay in Cairo.

-Perhaps he still uses it. -lt's worth a ty.

(INDISTINCT CHMER)

Artifacts from the king's tomb.

-Every one's a valuable treasure. -ln here.

-This place looks Familiar. -VENDOR: Guaranteed authentic.

(SPEAKING EGYPTIAN)

(IN ENGLISH) How may l help you?

We're iust browsing.

You could Find no finer place than this establishment

in which to obtain wondrous bargains.

This, For example,

a priceless relic from the Seventh Dynasty.

The only one of its kind.

Another time, perhaps.

Hmm.

This is the place. l'm sure of it.

There's a secret entrance to a lower level,

but l don't remember where.

This might help us.

-(RAPID BEEPING) -An ultrasound imager.

Eureka.

(GRUNTS)

(TALIA GASPS)

This part of the store is closed to customers.

(GRUNTING)

(GRoANS)

-We make a good team. -That we do.

TALIA: The completed scroll?

BRUCE: Yes, and a translation made by Ra's.

Did you really think l would be Foolish enough

not to have this sanctum under observation?

Father! You really are alive.

Yes, Talia, l am alive.

No thanks, l regret to say, are due you for my current state of health.

No, Father, you can't believe that.

l only tried to save the man l love.

You've got a serious priority problem, Ra's.

What can be in that tomb that's more valuable than the love of your daughter?

Power, Detective.

The power once held by almighty Thoth Khepera, queen of two continents.

You surprise me, Ra's.

The world's oldest chauvinist chasing after a woman?

Thoth Khepera was not simply a woman, Detective,

nor merely a ruler.

Through her flowed the power of the gods.

With no more than a gesture,

she controlled the force of life and death,

and with it she kept a nation under her thumb for 1,OOO years.

You sound like a bad Saturday afternoon serial, Ra's.

-This is sheer nonsense. -No, Detective.

l know there is a power there to be tapped.

My 600 years of li Fe are proof of that power.

Farewell, Detective.

Farewell, Talia.

lt is said that one finds immortality in one's offspring.

Alas, l know that to be a lie.

(GRUNTING)

The air won't last much longer.

lt's not the end l would've chosen, beloved,

but if we must die, l am glad we're together.

We're not licked yet.

Cover your ears, Talia, and pray.

Talia, l'll do whatever l have to to stop him.

You must know that.

l do. And though it breaks my heart,

l will do what l must as well.

No sign of Ra's. Looks like we beat him here.

For only a moment.

l'm a quick study.

The queen's sarcophagus.

RA'S: It's not what it seems, Detective.

Father!

That chest contains more than a mummy's corpse.

Remember, Thoth Khepera was immortal.

Her subjects deified her,

named her after the ancient gods of infinite knowledge and eternal life.

And in a few short moments

l will be privy to those same secrets of life and death.

(STRAINING)

No.

No!

(RUMBLING)

Who are you?

l am Thoth Khepera.

Those who have ioined me share their knowledge with me.

We are legion.

l am called Ra's Al Ghul.

l have searched for you For over 500 years.

Tell me your secret.

Grant me the powers of the gods that legend says you possessed.

That knowledge can be yours iF you join us.

Come forward, Ra's Al Ghul.

Come and know the mysteries of life and death.

Father.

No!

(HISSES)

(DISTORTED VOlCE) None may de File me and live.

(STRAINING)

(YELLING)

(SCREAMING)

ln Fidel!

(RUMBLING)

Daughter.

Father.

My apologies to you, daughter.

Though l had abandoned you in my heart, obviously, you have not done the same.

-What will you do now? -Take them back to the authorities.

Your Father has much to answer for.

(GUN CoCKS)

l am truly sorry, beloved, but he is my father.

Please dismount.

Another time, Detective.

Yes, another time.
