[whooshing]

[thunks]

Oh, is it fueled by imagination?

Should we be afraid,
be very afraid?

No, and no.

Hi everybody and welcome to the
Satellite of Love.

I'm Joel Robinson and
the bots and I

are in a spirited game
of 20 questions.

It's a sassy, brassy,
musical humdinger.

Oh oh oh, is it a new
highland adventure

where they go
thrill-deep in danger?

No, wrong and wrong.

It is not the most exciting
undersea odyssey ever filmed

and it is not 100%
pure adrenaline.

Aha, then it's a bikini-clad
romp through summer's fun.

No no, was it a shocking expose

- of souls in bondage, maybe?
- Commercial sign,

in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1--

Is it not only his
nose that grows?

- Commercial sign. - Is it
personal this time?

No, we'll be right back.

Do we watch Dudley Moore juggle

two women in battle to
save his sanity?

- You made that up. - No, no,
no!

[MST3K theme music]

Ok, here's a good one.

Uh, stop or guess who'll shoot
my mama's babysitter

and throw her from the train.

[scoffing]

Whoa, hard hat and
legs are calling.

Oh, let me!

Hello, is Dave home?

No, there's no one
named Dave here.

I think you have the wrong-- Oh,
knock it off, you nitwits!

Frank, ah! [laughing]

I can't believe you
fell for that.

What, have you been under a rock
for the last 10 years?

Hello, is this thing on?

Paging Dr. F,

hello!

Frank!

Let's pretend I hurt you and
move on, shall we?

Done.

Well Joel, as the
brilliant essayist

and secret bigot H.L.
Mencken once said,

"No one ever went broke
underestimating the rumors

of my death have been
greatly exaggerated."

Or something like that!

The point is--

The point is, is that
someone is making a mint

off those damn Precious
Moments bisque figurines

and Dr. Clayton Stonewall
Forester wants a
piece of the pie!

You dig?

I dig, that's why we've come up
with these brand new

optional gifts for Grandma
that we like to call

Tragic Moments figurines.

Sure, Grandma will cry when she
sees her lovely gift,

but for very different reasons.

This first one is entitled,
Sparky's Last Romp.

And these beautiful,
handcrafted figurines

depict little Billy's first
hard lesson in life.

Plus what happens when a
dog teases a cow

way past the breaking point.

Thank you, Frank.

This striking hand-painted
lamp is titled,

By the Fire's Glow and it
depicts the tragic occurrence

when you light off a
roman candle

in the rumpus room.

This little beauty here
is the flagship

of our collection;
it's entitled,

I'll Get It.

And it depicts what should've
been a really fun

game of kickball, gone
tragically wrong.

Others in the
collection include,

He Raises a Hand in Anger,

World's Deadest Grandma,

and Dad's Liquid Breakfast.

And Joel, no one can predict the
market on these things,

but a 1987 copy of
Who's that with Mom

recently sold for $400.

Your turn.

[indistinct protesting]

That's the sickest thing you
guys have ever done!

Oh, lighten up and get on
with your invention.

Well, sirs, as you know,

charismatic actor Jack Palance
can make anything

he says sound horrifying,

or at the very least,
really interesting.

So we've come up with this Jack
Palance Impersonator Kit.

It makes anything you say

worth listening to,
isn't that right?

I just purchased a new
shovel today.

It cost $15.

Believe it.

Or not.

See? Or else you could

go ahead and try to
scare your friends.

Excuse me, is that Jack Palance

or Jack Pa-lance?

That would be a decision
for you to make.

Choose wisely.

Well, ah, what do you think?

Sirs?

Ahhh! Don't do that!

Your film today, Joel,

is a cinematic
tranquilizer starring

Ben Murphy called Being
from Another Planet.

And I hope you haven't made
plans for dinner,

my little corn muffin.

[laughing]

- Oh, shut up! - Okay.

We've got movie sign!

[yelling]

[rumbling]

[whooshing]

[creaking]

[heavy breathing]

Yes, oh fun, huh.

Jack... Palance.

Dimitri Villard.

In association with Wescom.

Oh, you know being from
another planet

I didn't have a lot to do
with this film.

Ehh.

[laughing]

As Isis, the god of love.

These characters are so flat.

Oh brophy, that's when your
brother wins a trophy.

- Zingle-wingle. - Zing.

Aw, they picked him
out of nowhere.

James, Karen?

Boy, he has an identity problem.

- Sam Chew--- - Gesundheit.

- Thank you. - [laughs]

Oh boy, wrong.

I predict her career
will go nowhere.

Good one.

Boy, we get the credits

and a tour through
the art museum.

This is just like the
beginning of Mannequin,

one of my favorite films!

So could you introduce me

to Shari Belafonte-Harper?

You know guys, I just don't
understand this modern art.

[clicking]

Sounds like somebody's
getting a haircut.

[muffled speech]

Sounds like the foley
guy opened a mic.

Aw, little Robbie Greenberg.

Number nine, number nine,

we are standing still.

You know guys, this sounds
exactly like Jerry

- What is that? -
Garcia's first film.

- Huh? - Yeah.

It's the Shroud of Turin.

[ominous music]

North wall?

They must be at a trailer home
during a tornado!

Tom Kennedy!

By the end of this decade,

you will host a game show.

[Man]: Okay, alright.

I'm ok, you're ok.

We're all ok.

Oh, this is his summer tomb

that nobody talks
about too much.

Last tomb on the left.

Fog?

Indy, throw me the whip,
throw me the Idol.

Whoops, stepped in a Tut pile.

Ugh, has somebody been cooking

veal in here? Yeuch.

I'm Leonard Nimoy,

in search of my career.

No, it's the Wade

Did ancient astronauts
leave this rock?

So far this movie looks
like a dramatization

of a movie.

This is incredible!

Wait a minute, what's this?

Must we pose right now?

Rossmore wants a bunch of

Yeah, seems we have no choice.

I just got out of the shower.

Looks like Abba in college.

That's the name of the game.

These are clearly the
original seals.

Ditch the coffin, we've
got what we need.

Which means the fella inside
hasn't seen the light

of day in approximately
2,000 years--

So he's gonna be crabby.

I'll say.

Lift it carefully.

Can anyone translate the name?

No, Joan van Arc.

Literally, a noble traveler.

Meaning?

Look, what do you want from me?

Why would they bury a
foreigner in the tomb

of King Tut? That's a
good question.

They were wacky.

Maybe we'll find the answer in
the scroll of dedication.

Let's go for the inner lid now,
carefully.

Oh? Why it's Shirley Long
and Henry Winkler-

In Getting Goofy,
coming this summer.

Ready for the X-ray, sir.

Huh, my son the idiot.

[hissing]

Ooh, light a match!

Hasty burial, minimum
preparation.

'Cause it's a gazillion
years old maybe, god.

What is that green stuff, mold?

Not really sure.

Michael, why don't you
collect some samples.

I'm collecting samples,
for the teacher.

Professor, why would he have
been given a hasty burial?

Like I was there.

Hey, check it out,
Wayne Gretzky.

But my guess is,
Ankh-Venharis died from some

kind of disease, such as
plague or smallpox.

Or whatever it was
that disfigured

and killed his attendants.

Well that's great doc,

could you sign my drop sheet?

An air-tight container, I want
to seal this up--

[mumbles] Rubbermaid
or Tupperware?

[dramatic music]

Oh, not my color, I'm
definitely a Fall.

Oh great, the plague!

And I got a date.

Michael?

Just about done.

Row your boat ashore.

All right, now mix me
up a pitcher

of Gin Gibsons.

Don't forget the onion.

Here, this is yours, you
can keep that.

All right, I think we're
ready for the X-ray.

[MST3K theme music]

[ominous music]

Uhh, I don't think so.

Chance of fire high today,
uh-oh.

What are you doing, you moron?

Doug, look at that.

My god, Sharpe!

One of those damn kids must of
knocked it off the setting.

You've been X-raying this mummy

with 10 times the normal dose.

He could die!

So we'll start again.

- Let's not-- - And say we did!

He's had enough radiation
for one night.

Just deliver those
plates to my office.

Why'd they send a mummy to
Pine City Lo-Tech?

Medical subsidary.

I don't know.

Looks kinda like a van mural.

And now, Trapper John, M.D.

Boy, Trapper John M.D.
lives right next door

to a medical center.

This guy's so negative.

[all laughing]

That's cute.

Let's see, you haven't flossed
and you don't brush.

These are terrible!

Who took these-- Oh, I did.

Well look at this,
steelies and eggies.

What could those be...

How the heck would we know?

Dear Aunt Nefertiti,

thanks for the... socks?

Uh, want me to turn on a light?

Huh, travel Yahtzee.

Now we're gonna look in the

Oh, you...

Done and done.

Hey, it's my money [mumbles]

Hey, wrap that thing up,
it'll spoil!

Oh, can I interest you in

It is decadent.

You can relax, I'm just gonna
check for cavities.

Just gotta match the dose.

Don't worry dear, this isn't
going to hurt a bit.

He's taunting a mummy!

Ow!

A perfect match.

It's Tim Matheson and he
loves the ladies.

How do you tell someone
they've been dead

- for 1,000 years? - I dunno.

Ok, here's my headshots,

now all I need is some talent.

And thanks, Ken.

Can you bring it over to him,

Of course not.

I'm sorry, did I startle you?

No, that's why I wet myself.

Aw, oh.

Aw, Susie, what time is it?

You're gonna look worse
than Ankh-Venharis

at the press conference.

And you smell like cheetos.

Susan, look at this.

Notice the cranial structure.

Line of the spinal column.

He's gonna need a retainer.

Maybe there's something wrong
with the X-ray machine.

No, no.

Here, the coffin came
out perfectly.

Hm, nice likeness.

Usually the internal
organs are removed

and prepared separately,
but here---

Ew, gross!

Now, get me a sandwich.

This mummy hasn't been prepared
in the standard manner.

What's this?

No idea, I'm a complete phony.

Probably a hidden compartment
for personal jewelry,

that's not unheard of.

Yeah, it's only hidden
unless you look.

Wow, they had 8-track.

Blegh.

What is this stuff?

Guauco-mummy, heheheh.

Don't touch it!

Oh, what a royally lame
mummy in this movie.

Yeah, what a royally lame crummy
mummy in this movie.

Daw, what a royally lame
crusty crunchy crummy

dummy mummy in this movie.

Oh, watch this one, Tom.

What a royally lame Billy
mummy in this movie.

Oh man, Billy Mummy from
Lost in Space.

That is rich, what a hoot,
hoohoo.

It's Bill Mumy

and I happen to be a fan.

Oh, well I'm sorry, Joel.

You know the whole concept
strikes me as absurd.

I mean, what has master Mumy
done for us since his portrayal

of young Will Robinson on Irwin
Allen's production

of Lost in Space.

Well, lots of stuff.

Oh, like what?

Well, it might surprise you to
find out that he was even

a younger child actor than
when in Lost in Space.

Remember the film Dear Brigitte
where he played the little

boy who wrote to
Brigitte Bardot.

- - Ring a bell? Uh nuh.

And there was that
classic Twilight Zone

where he was the little boy
who could wish people

- into the corn field - Oh yeah,
yeah.

And then there was that one
really great movie that I

can't really remember the name
of where he played

that super genius
mathematician kid.

That one really great movie
that I can't remember

where he played-- well, let
me rephrase that;

Bill Mumy hasn't done anything
since he was 11, there.

Ooo, solid riff, Crow.

Thank you.

- Au contraire, Crow. - Oh,
drat.

Don't you remember?

He played Stirling North in the
heartwarming tale Rascal.

Stirling?

Yeah, and let's see what else--

Oh yeah, he was that young
rebel in that film

Bless the Beast and
the Children.

Oh, now I remember!

You know, that's about the time
he started showing up

on the Merv Griffin Show with
his electric guitar.

And the next thing you know
he's a special guest

bachelor on Jim Lange's
The Dating Game.

Dare we forget the now classic
Lost in Space reunion,

shown on Family Feud.

I was especially fond of his
work in the European

mime troupe, Mumy Shines.

Out. Out.

Fine.

- Beat it. - Beat it.

- No taste, you know. - I know.

You know I understand that
lately he's been spotted

performing space plays
live on stage.

As well as his work in
introducing a comic
book of course.

You mean, Lost in Space
graphic novel.

Let's not forget his work in the
band, Barnes & Barnes.

Remember Fish Heads,
need I say more?

Ooo, eat them up, yum.

Didn't he play the part of
Weaver in Sunshine Christmas?

Let's not forget his
cameo appearance

in the remake of the
Twilight Zone movie.

Uh, uh, did I say Billy Mumy?

I meant to say Butch Patrick.

Ah, changes everything.

Well why didn't you say so?

I felt like the Phantom
Tollbooth was

so totally overrated, you know?

Oh, excuse me, hello.

Hello, Lidsville, don't get
me started now.

Bah!

[MST3K theme music]

I thought his widow's
peak was real.

You okay bro?

Yes.

Worthless.

- Worthless? - Your
career that is.

What do you mean worthless?

I mean they're not precious.

You're precious.

They're 3,000 years old.
They're ancient, man.

Well who told you that,
some hustler--

I don't read Hustler.

Forget it.

I'm gonna find those
strawberries.

- Clown. - Take that back

or I'll squirt you
with my flower.

- It is the same
fungus-- - Among us.

But it's definitely no
longer dormant.

Norman.

- You have no idea what it is?
- Wizz.

Until we find out, don't
let anyone near it.

That's not going to be easy,

Rossmore scheduled a press
conference for today.

He wants to introduce
Ankh-Venharis to the public.

Ok Doug, I'll call Rossmore

and tell him he
simply must cancel.

Thanks Ken, appreciate that.

Ok, thanks, solid bro, word out!

Evening News--

Evening to you.

Michael see if you can find
something to rope

the coffin off with please.

Uh, like rope?

Huhuh, a chair.

Be sure everyone stays
clear of the coffin.

- Including you. - Gotcha.

Didn't we have 10 pound balls?

He wants to talk to you.

[muttering]

No we don't know for sure
that it's dangerous.

Well what are the savings?

Hey hey hey, lens cap!

Look, I'll get back to
work on this,

and if I learn anything
I'll call you.

Thanks Ken, thanks.

blamed for the clumsiness

of one of your students.

Now if you're unwilling to

for this project,
perhaps we'd ought

to find someone who will.

Ladies and gentlemen,
good morning.

My name is Wendell J. Rossmore.

[All]: Good morning, Mr.
Wendell J. Rossmore.

Today we are formally announcing
the permanent acquisition

of a major artifact
from the tomb

and the treasure of Tutankhamen.

And we got his hot tub, hurrah.

[dramatic music]

Hey, Jim Fixx!

[labored breathing]

Oh, no, there's a steady-cam
of the boiler room!

[groaning]

When I uncover the mummy,
you're going to notice

that the wrappings are
very deteriorated

and covered with a
green substance.

This may make him seem
rather unattractive,

but please, remember, he's been
in there for 3,000 years.

I can't believe he gets a
laugh with that.

Gentlemen, you may remove
the inner lid.

Where's Geraldo?

All rise.

Aw, it's full of chip dip!

[crowd murmuring]

[smacking lips] Looks good.

Hey look, I wasn't the only one
in the lab that night.

Don't you belong to a
fraternity, Sharpe?

Yes, so what?

Hey, Pete, I was a frat man, I
know what it's like.

Slow night, nothing to do.

Have a couple of beers.

Steal a mummy.

Quart of everclear in
a beer bong.

Try to prove it.

Why you little--

You little minx.

Why don't you ask Parker where
he was that night, I
saw him there.

I was at Hairclip for Men.

Dr Rossmore, Jack Parker
is not a suspect.

The most important thing is
we've got to find the mummy.

And we've got to counteract the
bad press generated

by that disaster this morning.

- Sharpe. - Yes, sir.

I want you to spread
the word through

the fraternity houses, I am
offering a 24 hour amnesty

to get the mummy back.

Now if he is not returned, I
am going to close

every frat house and search
every room on this campus.

And I'll search every underwear

drawer in sorority row.

All right, Sharpe and Parker,
you may go.

[suspenseful music]

My throat's closing Joel.

I don't like this, it's scary.

It's ok.

I can't take it!

This is a sinus headache.

Hey you guys, I think it's

Coppolla's espresso machine!

Uhh, uhhn.

I have no idea where I am,

but am I trying to do, I'm a
mummy for crying out loud!

I can't watch this anymore Joel.

I can't take it, it's
too terrifying!

Police should be
brought in on this.

Absolutely not, now come on,

this is an internal affair.

We don't need 'em.

You're over-reacting, Doug.

That mummy could be dangerous!

There is something on
the wrappings--

We need to close the beaches.

There's already a boy in
the hospital--

And I gotta hit a
home run for him!

Could end up the same way.

If that's so, whoever's
taken the mummy

is going to end up in the
hospital sooner or later.

And then I'll nab 'em.

And nobody has to know about it,
not the police,

not the press.

And certainly not the audience.

Fine.

I'd better find that mummy
before someone else gets hurt.

I'm going to find more leather
to put on my jacket.

[whimpering] No, I
can't take anymore.

- Come on. - It's scary!

It's not that bad, look, sit up,
stand up--

Phil, it's been, uwah!

Boiler room system abort!

Oh, huh.

Wally Shawn?

I pity the dirt that
gets in my way.

[ominous music]

[whimpering]

Kinda spooky.

Huh, look at this guy.

I'd better get my biker
magazines outta here.

I'm having dinner
with Andre later.

Huh, he has been working up a
sweat, hasn't he?

Yeah, umph.

[metallic clattering]

Darn clumsy mummy.

[suspenseful music]

[humming]

Sounds kind of like John
Cage is back there.

Hey, what's going on back here?

Just eating a nutritious
breakfast, mom!

Well, there's no
emotional attachment

to me, I can die! [yells]

Ooo, there he goes.

I want you to search
the campus--

And find me a decent tie!

Find that mummy!

Sounds like an Abbott and
Castelo movie.

Hey, scrubbing bubbles!

[chortling]

The nucleus is unstable.

The chromosomal pattern
is mystifying--

And I'm totally bonkers.

...at a rate so fast I can
hardly measure it.

And I still haven't
found out how many

licks it takes to get to
the tootsie center.

[phone ringing]

Yes?

Ah, do you have Prince
Albert in a can?

We'll be right there.

Yes, whatever it is, it's
highly dermotropic.

It breaks down tissues--

That's quite a reunion.

[beatboxing]

Pete, Link, Julie.

- Provided it has enough food.
- I'll take it.

Any organic tissue.

In this case, human flesh.

Oh, not that old trick!

[laughing]

Bad movie, you're soaking in it.

Am I dying?

I'm sorry I screwed
up your show.

It's okay--

I get paid anyway.

You were upstaged by the
disappearing act anyway.

When you find that guy--

Kill him!

I want to be the first
one that knows.

- You got it. -
Unless you're dead.

Mind if I take a look
at that hand?

Sure, doc.

Why don't you slip
outta that robe.

Sure I'd, wait, it's my
hand that hurts!

[dramatic music]

It's a honey-glazed hand!

[MST3K theme music]

[ominous music]

Hey, it's Murray the cop.

Which one. Herb Edelman
or Al Molinaro?

Jeez, I gotta pick up in here.

Darn kids.

We'll phone this in.

Hello, Winchell's?

Send a policeman over, pronto.

Dr. Serrano, this is
Captain Willoughby.

Yeah, look, I'm in the
electrical supply room--

And I'm naked.

President Rossmor told
me to call you

if I saw anything suspicious.

Well, I haven't, so goodbye!

[Woman]: ...taking your
requests tonight.

So give me a call at 662-8200.

And now, to Brian from Sheila

and to Kristy from all the
guys at Delta Psi.

Here's the Banana Boat song,

by a guy I like to call dad.

Hey she's got a close and play.

[slow crooning music]

So this is where you hide out

when you're not taking
my picture, huh?

Cheapest run on campus, right
next to the reactor.

And she's funny too.

[laughing]

- Hi, I'm Jamie
Renolyds-- - And so am I.

[groaning]

This is Twins edition
of Two on One--

Is not much fun.

Today at the California
Institute of the Sciences they

held a press conference to show
off their new mummy.

But when they opened the coffin,
guess what?

It wasn't a mummy, it
was a daddy?

[groans] Boos, freebie.

It wasn't anything, the
coffin was empty.

Told ya Heraldo.

[groans] I gotta get cable.

Whatever it was, it
was too much.

Jamie, I think the Institute
is in grave trouble.

[laughing]

Kill him.

It all started this morning when
Wendell J. Rossmore

of the Institute called a
press conference

to show the world their find.

It's worth over a 100 bucks.

I could let you have it for say,
50.

Where am I gonna get 50 bucks?

Come one Greg, I know you
got paid today.

Just imagine what
Ellen's gonna think

when you walk in with a
present like that.

Yeah, she's gonna think
you're a dork, Greg.

Huh, huh, shiny, who's Ellen?

[upbeat music]

Well all right, I've
got Hard Bodies

and Mannequin Two.

Starsky and Hutch, the

Sizzler! [giggles]

So, tell me seriously,

doll face?

Huh, they're eating at Aunt B's.

Yeah hah, and now
eat your bread.

Excuse me, Sherri, I'll
be right back.

I gotta go shake hands
with a millionaire.

Brother Sharpe--

Robert Shaw?

Yes, especially in this
outrageously
expensive restaurant

with nine different
kinds of forks.

Yeah, huh, Teddies, it's a big
thing around here.

Hard to figure, brother Volgel--

They're monks?

Since he owes us 25
bucks apiece.

Hey look, come on, I need that!

I just ordered the food.

It's okay, we'll pay for it.

We'll eat it too.

Look, I'm here with Sherri--

Belafonte-Harper!

She's in this movie, too.

Listen, I know we can
share the food,

but listen, we have to
flip for the lady.

Tails who's prob--

Boo! [hisses]

How would you guys like to
double your money?

[dramatic music]

Hm? What?

This yam is trying to

Um, I never had to use a knife
and a fork before.

Come on, sit down.

Come on back here, get over here
come on, both of ya.

Come on, get over here,
sit down.

Come here, you.

Yeah, you give that to a girl,
she'll never forget you.

Yeah, wow.

Okay, it's a deal.

- Ah! - No, it's scary!

[whimpering]

Hey baby.

'Sup.

Shh, don't wake the baby--

I thought you were the baby.

We have to be really quiet,
come on.

She has a certain Susan
Saint James quality.

Here kid, here's a belly
chain for you, enjoy.

[slow pop music]

Hey, I didn't know you

Not until midnight.

Ah, so we've got five minutes.

It's the hand that rocks the

Now a special message for those

who took the Institute's mummy,
here's my in-studio guest,

our own Professor
Douglas McCadden.

Wow, hot show.

Thank you very much, Linda.

To who it may concern--

Give it back! Give it back!

You sons of...

The mummy's wrappings is
extremely dangerous.

If you have come into
contact with it,

please, seek medical
attention at once.

We've come into contact.

Wow, this is really getting

them in the mood, you know, wow.

Call the police, or
the Institute,

or even this radio station.

Horton Hears a Who.

[baby chattering]

Ricky Shroeder, no!

He sure can play young.

Ooo, it's like an escape act,

They're telling secrets.

Meanwhile, in Friday the 13th.

Now listen, I'm gonna break
outta here, see.

Nobody's gonna stop me.

[suspenseful music]

Be scared, be very a-scared.

Want to know what happens?

Well, first you put the
record on and then...

[whirring]

Are you my daddy?

[buzzing]

I thought I lost it
there for a minute,

guess it must've fallen out of
my pocket into the baby's crib.

He sure liked it.

I hope you do too.

Greg, it's beautiful.

It wasn't glowing like that
when I bought it.

Oh, it's so warm.

Like me.

[dramatic music]

[whirring]

[baby crying]

Oh, I love baby talk.

That was fast.

Damn.

Can't you let the kid cry?

He wants his doll.

Such a baby!

What do I look like,
the babysitter?

Oh, I am.

[suspenseful music]

Don't tell mom, the
babysitter's hot.

Ah! An asparagus monster!

That necklace didn't have a
very good clasp.

Now she's a wallflower!

[snorting laugh]

[whimpering] At least
it's outdoors.

[electronic beeping]

A fish finder in a hospital?

Can you treat her?

Like a lady.

Lieutenant Plummer, I
believe you know

our pathologist, Ken Melrose.

He'll touch anything.

And this is Professor
Douglas McCadden--

Oh hi!

I brought Lieutenant Plummer up
to date on everything.

Doctor, what about Ellen?

Well I'm consulting by phone
with Dr. Cunningham--

Richard Cunningham, I'm
sure I know him.

Oh? You expecting an epidemic?

No, but if anyone knows
anything about unusual

disorders it's Atlanta.

Ouch. Let's get outta here.

You ready to go?

Sure. Carry me.

I understand there was a
witness to this accident

involving the girl.

Yeah, her boyfriend,
Greg Hauser,

he's here in the hospital now.

[MST3K theme music]

[nonsensical singing]

Joel, you're terribly alone.

You're in your high
school boiler room.

[whooshing]

Really? What am I doing here?

It's a haunted boiler room with
a real scary janitor.

A lot of kids have just
disappeared down there.

What am I doing here?

Oh you're just a real dumb kid,
remember?

Oh, okay, gotcha.

Uh, that will be 25 cents, Joel!

25 cents, what for?

A quarter, or were you going to
go somewhere else tonight?

Oh no, okay, all right, okay.

[clinking]

Joel, are you ready for terror?

Yeah, ready.

But remember I don't
scare very easily.

[whooshing]

[yelling]

[laughing]

Just ignore those bats brushing
against your face.

What, ah!

There aren't any bats brushing.

No, believe me, they're
coming very close.

First, feel the eyeballs of
all the weird kids

from Mrs. Reemie's Spanish club.

[moaning]

Awuh, ick, this is disgusting.

Ah, it's so icky.

We know, we know, now try
the next bowl!

The next bowl.

[moaning]

Ah! A lil lil lil little...

It's the guts of Mr. Sodrbeck
from third hour driver's ed.

But what follows is even
more horrifying!

Do you dare to go on?

Sure.

Another quarter please.

Yup, 25 cents.

Okay, okay.

[moaning]

Ugh, what is that?

It's gruesome worms of hate.

It feels like spaghetti.

Oh, but it's gruesome
spaghetti of hate cooked

in blood and entrails in a nice
pesto cream sauce!

Ah! Ugh.

It's very nice
[slurping] num num num.

Well I have to admit you
guys have done

a really excellent job so far.

Feel free to give.

Community chest and all, just a
few dozen quarters.

Please move along. [clattering]

Now for scariness beyond
comprehension.

All right.

Don't be caught off guard.

The brain of a big ninth grader,
Greg Snyder!

Wow, that is really authentic.

You guys have really
done a great job,

I can't say enough about it.

Wow, for that one I guess so,
that is pretty good.

What did you use anyway?

Oh we couldn't find
anything very good

so we used a real brain.

Ah! A real brain!

Yup, a brain, a real brain.

Human brain. Pretty
simple really.

Well you know what?

I forgot to mention that I,

love real brain!

[yelling]

[blaring buzzer]

[shouting]

[rumbling]

[whooshing]

[creaking]

Did I scare you?

Yeah, I wasn't scared.

Whose face, Greg?

Whose face was it?

[mumbling]

I had jello today.

I just saw Blansky's beauties.

I think I'd better take him
under observation

for a few hours. Greg,
come with me.

I had jello--

Yup, we know, we know you
had jello today.

But it had fruit in it.

Yeah, that's great, let's go
get your medicine.

That's Michael Goldstein--

what a beautiful name ♪

Yeah, it looks like Richie
Cunningham's bedroom.

Wow! VCRs, lap-- oh.

Ooo, donuts, mmm.

No, it's that thing again!

That thing that's been driving
the plot to nowhere.

[electronic beeping]

It's Intellivision,

Ooo, it's the

You know only dogs can see that,
it's true.

Stalagmites, stalactites,

I get that right?

I have no idea what's going on.

[whimpering]

No more green spikes and things!

Just stay here, close your eyes.

If you had 'em you
could close 'em.

Look at me now, here
is [mumbling]

Ah! It's moving, it's moving!

No please, this is scary!

You guys, there's nothing
to be afraid of,

it's just this old house, okay?

Oh.

[ominous music]

No, no!

Hm? Nothing.

[mechanical whirling]

That's a Curly alarm,
whoop whoop whoop.

Oh he's playing one of
those travel games.

Moto-rummy?

Yeah, daylight comes and you
want to go home,

right, you get it?

Yeah. He needs a haircut.

[phones ringing]

What the heck is going on,
where is this?

Face it people, the
mall is closed.

[electronic whirling]

All right, for today's crazy
call, we're gonna call

Ben Murphy and tell him we've
got a good part for him.

[laughing]

In Heaven there is no beer,

that's why we drink... Huh,
what the?

Hello, Mr. Simpson, you've got
two weeks to live.

Dr. Hayworth wants to try a
surgical laser--

Just for fun.

Just as soon as they make sure

there aren't any broken bones.

I took a look at these
X-rays you sent me.

They're real sexy.

You were right, its chemical
structure is abnormal.

Extended clavicle,
oversized sternum,

displaced mastoid--

Speaking of oversized sternum.

Oh stop!

Ken, I want you to
listen to this,

I think I'm on to something.

Okay, Rotary Hills Hair
Clippers, what do you think?

The scroll.

It basically tells a story of
King Tutankhamen's soldiers

discovering a stranger
in the desert.

Uhuh, uhuh.

Because of his
unusual appearance--

He's totally off script.

Except to advise their
own god-king.

Okay, now dig this one.

King Tut goes forth to
greet this deity,

whom he calls Ankh-Venharis.

Oh, this is one of those
bot fairytales.

Well this is a lot more
interesting than the movie.

All-knowing Tutankhamen
reached out to touch

the weary traveller and
was sorely burned

and afflicted with a disease
that consumed his flesh.

Page two.

Likewise for all servants who
laid soothing hands--

Hey hey hey, I'm reading here!

This is my pitch.

All died, save only the strange
traveller himself,

who lay near death and
without strength--

[loud snoring]

So they simply sealed him alive
according to that stone.

Along with all the
afflicted servants.

And? The moral of the story is?

Are you suggesting
that our fungus--

Is among us?

Is the same disease that killed
Tut and his servants?

And it's been dormant
for 3,000 years,

and now it's not?

No, haven't you been listening?

Just suppose--

Moses supposes his
toes were roses.

We'd have to figure out how it
was stimulated out

of dormancy, then we might
know how to stop it.

Yeah, I guess you're right.

I hadn't thought of that.

It's an unbelievable concept--

But it just might work!

[loud thud]

Dammit--

I hate Evans and Novak!

We look ridiculous, we were
seen on every channel.

You shouldn't have
worn that dress.

Look at this, where is my mummy?

A fraternity party
Saturday night.

Please wear costumes,
that's all we need.

Laurant, will you put
that down please.

Caution, snow angels
in progress.

Ooo, look at his hand!

Needs Porcelana.

Let's see, the total is 3.50,
go ahead.

Your onion chips will be up in
just a minute, thank you.

[dramatic music]

[electronic beeping]

Oh, that proved a lot.

Yeah.

You know there's some
cool stuff in here,

I gotta get down

Now, it's lunchtime.

Ugh, liver.

Stuffing instead of potatoes?

[quiet clicking]

Eh, two scoops of

They're moving.

Ugh. Chocolatey cocao wheats.

I hate those.

Nah, nice scream though.

No, she can't stand the

Huh, oh get that.

You gotta get used to that.

Ew, Carrie isn't very.

Would you hem those things?

Hi Susie! Hi Stanley.

Can I talk to you for a minute?

Not right now, okay, I'm
really in a rush.

Well, what is it?

Are you still going out with
Professor McCadden?

I don't think that's any of your
business, Stanley.

Now if you'll excuse me, I've
got a very busy schedule.

I've got a date with
Professor McCadden.

This conversation hasn't gone
as I hoped it would.

Here, take this.

I can't take this.

Take this, think of me, maybe
I'll see you sometime.

Stanley!

You wanna help me do

[slow music]

We now leave medical

Nice he lives so close by.

Gee, it gets dark fast.

Oh it's a CBS mystery movie!

There wasn't a CBS

I know, but you won't let us

Let's get outta here.

[shuffling footsteps]

Let's get donuts.

Oh come on Joel, I don't
want to be the dead

bird in your guest bed, but
that's really a hackneyed joke.

No, I just mean that cops
eat donuts a lot.

No, it's just hack, Joel.

Well it's just
something I noticed,

kinda observational.

It's cheap. Stop it.

Donuts.

Maybe if they turned on a light.

[suspenseful music]

Hey Steve, there's a string
section down here.

And George Winston's with them.

Yeuch.

Nothing but a damn door.

Haha haha, the mummy walks!

Yeah.

Hey, look, man, I, I, I, I

Uh huh. So. Well.

Hi Jack, how do I look?

Cheap, why?

Come on.

As Cleopatra would say,

No, I think she'd say,

No I'm all right.

Doctor.

And I'll look for mine.

I'm looking for a murderer.

Susie and I have been
researching--

Dolly's last supper.

First of all I want to warn you,

it's going to sound
very unbelievable,

but please, just bear with me.

I know it can't be proved--

But I'm Patty Paige.

But this fungus, I
think we all agree,

it's like nothing else we've
ever encountered.

I'd have to agree with that.

It's like tofutti, only better.

That was because it didn't
come from Earth.

Where else would it
have come from?

Oh, water, fire, air.

You said he wasn't a
normal human being.

Suppose he wasn't a human being.

Ah, Doug--

I said it would sound crazy.

Remember the squirrel?

Yeah, Rocky the Flying Squirrel?

Ah damn.

Became afflicted and died,
except Ankh-Venharis.

Because he was immune.

Because he wasn't human.

We all agree that we're dealing
with something unknown,

but I can't, myself, take
a quantum leap

into the supernatural.

Not in these clothes anyway.

I'm sorry Professor, but
with all due respect,

we have to have some
basis in fact.

I've got the best available
equipment at my disposal

and I've come up with
absolutely nothing.

I mean, it simply
does not exist.

Look, Doug, the bottom
line is this:

Whatever it is--

I'm against it.

Who took it and where it is now,

otherwise more people are
going to get hurt.

Thanks to McCadden we are
in deep trouble.

Two of our donors have
withdrawn their bequest.

- $500,000 out the window.
- Doh!

Maybe there's a way of turning
this whole thing around.

How, Bruce, how?

What if he stole the mummy?

- Huh? - Huh?

He wasn't ready to unveil that
mummy so he had it stolen

and hidden where he could work
on it in private.

And then, when he's ready to
find it and unveil it,

he'll find it and come
out a big hero.

No, I don't think that
scenario's going

to hold water, Bruce.

I hold water.

I do and I think I can prove it.

You don't think it's walking
around on its own, do you?

Nooo! Save me!

That's a sump pump!

Oh, geez, look over there,
it's terrible!

Oh, there's copper tubing
everywhere, oh the--

It's not easy seeing green, ooh!

Cover thine eyes.

There's something out there!

What?

It's in the hall!

It's a poorly lit point of
view shot, save me!

[screams]

Ladies and gentlemen, the
Black Moses of Soul!

Huh?

Come on Doug, wake up.

Uh, oh, wha...

Did I make you dress up like
Lucy Arnez last night?

What time is it?

You've been sleeping all day.

You must've been really tired.

Oh, you're brilliant.

Doug, look.

[ethereal music]

Oh, yeah that.

I got drunk and wood
burned my cabinet.

Where's it coming from?

My bracelet.

Hey, that's my bracelet!

Joshua light show.

That looks exactly
like the diagram

that I found inside the scroll.

It can't be a coincidence.

Susie, where'd you get
this bracelet?

Crackerjacks.

Well, it was a present from this
guy named Stanley.

We're uh, friends, heh heh.

No.

Susie, can you call him?

Now?

Yeah, honey, it's important.

That diagram and this crystal
had the same pattern,

they've gotta be related.

Gee, Ben! Put some pants on!

That's better.

I know I have or something
like it anyway.

Kinda, sorta.

Remotely vaguely.

I couldn't remember, but--

'Cause I was dizzy with lust.

I know, my brother used
to build radios

and I think he had
diagrams lying around

that looked like that.

Your brother, Marconi?

Radios.

So what you're saying is
that this film

is going directly to
radio cassette.

You know, maybe
Parker will know.

Parker Lewis can't lose.

This was in the coffin?

Yeah.

It's amazing, it looks like...

some kind of wiring schematic.

I love the velour tunic
she's wearing.

Right, but what
would it be doing

in a 3,000 year old coffin?

Did ancient astronauts carry
radios to Egypt?

- ...something to do with it?
- Your thumb?

Maybe crystals could be used
as transmitters.

Jack.

Look at this.

♪ It's Candor's shawl protector

What's going on, Doug?

There must be a connection.

If this did belong to
Ankh-Venharis,

what would he have used it for?

Oh, uh, parties?

It couldn't have been for
radios in ancient Egypt.

- Susie-- - Shut up.

I want you to go to the
astronomy center,

see what else you can find on
ancient phenomena.

But also, check out those NASA

communication.

And get me a pound of
