They wind up in the mummy's tomb where they are harassed by some criminals pursuing the same objective. These criminals abducted a professor from the museum. They are yearning for the jewels buried inside the mummy's tomb. When Curly accidentally destroys the mummy, Moe and Larry wrap him in bandages to fool the criminals. They manage to rescue the professor and retrieve the real mummy of Rutentuten who turns out to have been a midget rather than a tall pharaoh. Written by Anonymous See less
