Bonus Features Deleted Scenes II
[Karnak. Night.]
[IMHOTEP and MEELA sit before a pool. The Book of the Dead rests in front of IMHOTEP and he turns to MEELA, love in his eyes and hope.]
IMHOTEP: It is time to remind you of who you are. Of who we are together. Our love is a true love, an eternal love, our souls mated as one-
[Just then a quiet dragging sound is heard from behind and a low moaning, like tiny creatures coming forth from the darkness.]
MYSTERIOUS CREATURES: Oooooooh! Ooooooooh!
[IMHOTEP and MEELA share a look, raising their eyebrows as one and then simultaneously turn their heads to see what the noise is. Three SCARAB BEETLES, wrapped in bandages like little mummies, are slowly making their way towards them. Their multiple arms are outstretched in front of them, as they moan, and drag one foot behind them with a loose strand of bandage being pulled along the ground behind them. MEELA's eyes go wide and she blinks in astonishment. IMHOTEP immediately jumps to his feet, furious.]
IMHOTEP: What are you doing!? Stop this at once!
[The SCARAB BEETLES only keep coming and start to walk in a circle around IMHOTEP.]
SCARAB BEETLES: Oooooh!!! Ooooooooh!!!
IMHOTEP: [Shouts while turning in a circle to keep an eye on them, shaking a finger at them.] Knock this off at once! This is not funny!
[MEELA puts a hand over her mouth and giggles, but luckily IMHOTEP does not see, or hear this.]
IMHOTEP: Get out of here! This is my scene!
[The SCARAB BEETLES keep circling.]
SCARAB BEETLES: Oooooooh! Oooooooh!
LITTLEST SCARAB BEETLE: Im hib yut setna!
[IMHOTEP's eyes fly wide, along with his mouth.]
IMHOTEP: What the!?
[MEELA only laughs harder.]
IMHOTEP: That's it!
[IMHOTEP tries to stomp on the SCARAB BEETLES.]
SCARAB BEETLES: AHHHHHHHHH!!!
[The SCARAB BEETLES all start to scurry away from the mad mummy.]
IMHOTEP: I shall destroy you all!
[The SCARAB BEETLES evade IMHOTEP's feet and head for the pool, still dragging their one foot "mummy style." IMHOTEP follows after them.]
SCARAB BEETLES: [In a mocking tone] Im hib yut setna! Im hib yut setna! Im hib yut setNA!
IMHOTEP: Urgh! I have had it with you three! Three thousand years of mocking! I will take no more!
[IMHOTEP growls and lunges for the SCARAB BEETLES, but they move out of the way just in time and IMHOTEP's foot hits The Book of the Dead and sends him falling into the pool with a large splash! MEELA jumps up, soaking wet now and completely beside herself.]
MEELA: IMHOTEP!? Oh my gods!
SCARAB BEETLES: Uh oh!
[The SCARAB BEETLES try to slink away. IMHOTEP resurfaces, his robes now heavy from the water. He growls and takes them off, tossing them aside.]
IMHOTEP: When I get my hands on the three of-
[IMHOTEP is cut off by MEELA and the SCARAB BEETLE's laughter.]
IMHOTEP: What…is…so…funny!?
MEELA: You- you seem to have lost something, My Love!
IMHOTEP: [Confused.] What?
[IMHOTEP looks down to see that his loincloth is now floating beside him. His eyes widen and he turns red. MEELA laughs some more, but tries to peek, blushing herself.]
SCARAB BEETLES: What a sick lady!
[IMHOTEP looks up and growls at the SCARAB BEETLES.]
SCARAB BEETLES: Time to go!
[The SCARAB BEETLES walk "mummy style" off the set.]
SCARAB BEETLES: Oooooh! Oooooh!
[IMHOTEP seethes and is about to go after them, but MEELA walks over to the edge of the pool, smiling, having a better view now…]
MEELA: Forget them…Would you like some help?
[IMHOTEP glances down at himself for a moment, then looks back up at MEELA, trying to hide his humiliation.]
IMHOTEP: Yes…get me a towel…
[Camera cuts.]
