Disappointed, the Doctor realises they can't be in Tut's tomb, since it was never plundered. Still, he wants to find out what these robbers are up to, even though his two companions are ready to leave before they get killed by the raiders. Ben counters with a deal: he'll go scare off the grave robbers if the Doctor will take Polly back to the TARDIS and get ready for immediate departure. In return, the Doctor will agree to allow Ben and Polly to take one souvenir each from the tomb. The Doctor doesn't disagree to the plan, so Ben is off like a shot into the darkness. He grabs the golden facemask of King Tut and owing to the fact that he bears an uncanny resemblance to Tut, slips it over his facial features easily. When he encounters the robbers, he flashes his torch onto his now-golden face and lets loose an unholy wail. Spooked, the raiders depart the tomb so hurriedly they cause a minor cave-in which seals the entrance to the tomb. Ben races back to the TARDIS and comes to the realisation that this must be the tomb of a young king after all. Having seen the raiders personally, he judges they must be in ancient Egypt. The Doctor is right: this is King Tut's tomb, and he's only recently died. Ben realises it would be wrong to steal anything from the tomb, so he drops the golden mask and jumps into the TARDIS."@en . . .
