If I could've told
my daughter I loved her

1:00:05
Always the questions
Never the answers

1:00:08
Always the hopes
never the fulfillments

1:00:18
I had the woman who calls herself
my niece come get me.

1:00:21
She took me downtown this morning
to the newspaper morgue.

1:00:25
She's been helping me
to do some research.

1:00:28
- Research on what, man?
- On our mummy.

1:00:31
You know somethin' about him?
1:00:32
I know plenty.
1:00:37
Now, one of the lesser mummies,
1:00:40
on loan from the Egyptian government,
1:00:42
was being circulated
all over the United States.

1:00:45
You know, museums,
stuff like that.

1:00:47
What do you mean?
Like King Tut or whatever?

1:00:49
No, more like King Tut's brother.
1:00:51
His mummy was flown or carried
by the train from state to state.

1:00:55
When it got to Texas,
it was stolen.

1:00:58
Stolen?
1:00:59
Evidence points to it being stolen at night
by a couple of guys in a silver bus.

1:01:03
Bus? Hey, I've seen that!
1:01:06
Anyway, the thieves
broke into the museum,

1:01:08
stole it in hopes of a ransom,
1:01:11
when in comes the worst storm
in East Texas history.

1:01:17
Let me guess.
1:01:19
The bus was washed away, see?
1:01:21
'Cause I think I saw it today.
It was way back in the creek.

1:01:24
The mummy was imprisoned
by the debris.

1:01:27
Look here...
how'd it come back to life?

1:01:29
And how did I end up
inside its memories?

1:01:32
Speculation broadens here,
but from what I've read,

1:01:35
some mummies get buried
without their names...

1:01:37
a curse put on their sarcophagus.
1:01:41
Hey, now, maybe our boy's
one of them.

1:01:44
I mean, when he's in the coffin,
he's just a dried-up old corpse,

1:01:48
but when the bus got washed away,
maybe it overturned or broke open,

1:01:51
and now he's free of coffin and curse.
1:01:53
He's free from imprisonment,
but he still needs souls.

1:01:58
Now he's free to have them.
1:01:59
He can just keep on feedin'
unless he's finally destroyed.
