A mystic Egyptian scroll donated to the Gotham museum by Bruce Wayne is stolen by Ra's Al Ghul, and Batman and Talia must join forces to prevent the power-mad Ra's from unlocking the scroll's secrets of life and death. Their quest takes them to a hidden temple deep beneath the Egyptian desert. There the Dark Knight is forced into a terrifying battle with an ancient Egyptian sorceress who seeks to destroy them all.

Episode Notes

In one scene, Batman knocks over a pillar by wedging himself between its top and the ceiling and forcing it to break free, an obvious homage to a scene in the movie "Raiders of the Lost Ark."

Episode Quotes

Bruce: 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?
Ra's Al Ghul: Power, detective.

Bruce Wayne: You surprise me, Ra's. The world's oldest chauvinist, chasing after a woman?
Ra's Al Ghul: Thoth Khepera was not simply a woman, detective, nor merely a ruler. Through her flow 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 one thousand years.
Bruce Wayne: You sound like a bad Saturday afternoon serial, Ra's
