Hey, watch this final bounce off his noggin.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Oh, go you answer's drink, yeah?

So you want to fight?

Only a martyr could love a face like that.

Come and get us, tall and orange and gruesome.

It's about time you clowns learned the lesson.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Why don't you bums learn not to make fun of other people?

Now get it, and don't pick up decent people.

A lot of good it does to clean up these yancy streeters.

They're right.

I'm the world's homeliest creature, and I'm sick of it.

Think I'll go back up and take off for some deserted island

where no one has to look at my ugly face in.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

There are so many wonders in the culture of ancient Egypt.

Yes, and mysteries.

Hey, look at the carving on this plaque.

Why?

That's an amazing likeness.

That is so similar to Ben, both as the thing in himself

that there must be some explanation.

The card says that the plaque is from an ancient Egyptian

period, somewhere in the 10th century BC.

If we could only go back and find out what it means,

maybe we could help Ben.

Let's see if we can.

Ben, what on earth?

Where are you going, big fella?

You weren't supposed to come home till I was long gone.

What do you mean, Ben?

Why are you leaving?

I was just going to disappear.

I'm sick of people's expressions when they see my ugly puts.

You can't be serious about leaving us, Ben.

We're a team.

Besides, Reed has something exciting to tell you.

Exciting?

What is it?

And so, Ben, if we can get back to the 10th century

BC, in Egyptian history, I believe

that we may discover a method of restoring you

to your original self.

Sounds great, but how are we going to get back into time?

Remember Dr. Doom?

He abandoned his castle, but there's

a chance the time machine he left behind

is still in working order.

I propose that we go there and attempt

to project ourselves back into that time in Egyptian history.

Well, what are we hanging around for?

Let's go.

There's the castle, Ben.

Start your letdown.

I'll set it down right beside the moat.

Nice landing, Ben.

I hope that time machine still works.

I'll fly over and lower the drawbridge.

OK, Johnny.

Play more!

OK, gang, come on.

Remind me to keep that torch around.

Sometimes he comes in handy.

This control panel on the throne appears

to be in working order.

All right, let's try it.

Get on the elapsed time plate, and I'll be right behind you.

Go!

I sent the machine to give us two weeks to get back.

Uh-oh, here we go.

We've made it.

Now to change back to my beautiful self.

I only wish it was that simple, Ben.

Look over there.

We have company.

Heads up, everyone.

Looks like we're in for a battle.

What a love of mine.

This is some reception.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Play more!

My force field is ready.

The helmets don't belong to this time in history.

This is a heck of a time to worry about the warthroat.

Look at those big, bad spears.

Hey, what's happening?

I can't keep my flame going.

Wow, I need more vitamins.

My strength's draining away.

I'm all dizzy.

Something's happened to Ben and Johnny.

Got to get over there.

Now, something's happening to me too.

I'm about to pass out.

Reed, help me.

Still, too.

It's as if we've been defeated by some unseen force.

We're all helpless.

Who could-- we must gather them up and take them to our master.

What happened to us?

Where are we?

We're prisoners.

We've been brought to a throne room.

I wonder who.

It is that of Ramatat.

Yes, prisoners.

The awesome Ramatat.

Pharaoh of Pharaohs, king of the seven sons.

And now that you know who I am.

Yeah, yeah, and where be?

The Fantastic Four.

You-- you know us?

I thought that information would startle you.

Reed, something's wrong.

How can he know about us 3,000 years before we were born?

It's kind of weird.

I think the secret lies with Ramatat himself.

Your mind is indeed sharp as the ancient legend

claimed, Mr. Richards.

And this weapon is the gun that sapped you of your powers.

The ultra diode ray, invented by me 4,000 years in the future.

1,000 years after your own century.

And you are a time traveler too.

Yes, I came from the year 3,000, the glorious age

of enlightenment, a peaceful and progressive civilization.

I defeated every minute of it.

I was an adventurer.

I longed for action, for nations to conquer and rule

as was my destiny.

It was in the year 3,000 that I learned

of the existence of the Fantastic Four.

How I envied your dramatic and interesting careers.

Then one day, while visiting the ruins of Dr. Doom's castle,

I discovered in his laboratory the diagram of one

of his greatest inventions, a time machine.

I immediately set to work and constructed

the giant high-voltage machinery that activated

the time-space transfer.

Then, knowing the superstitions of the people,

I fashioned a strange idol and placed my equipment

and diode ray within, and sent myself back through time

and space to this area to need you.

But I have become absolute ruler of these people.

This ultra-diode ray made that possible.

I, however, had one unfortunate thing happen.

What was that?

My control equipment that activates the time machine

was damaged while passing through the time-space transfer

period, and so I have been unable to leave

this primitive period.

Therefore, I have made this my home and the people my slaves.

Well, now, haven't you done just standing?

Yes.

And since you have invaded my kingdom,

you too shall become my slaves.

That's not what we came here for.

Too slow, Mr. Fantastic.

Taste the power of my mighty weapon.

Gods, seize them, put the men to suitable tasks.

But keep the girl here, for she has

traveled all these centuries to become my queen.

Oh, never.

My will is gone.

I gotta obey, like being asleep with my eyes open.

All clear to the north.

The enemy is in the new territory of Flint.

Can't help myself.

Must do as they command.

Me, the torch, a court jester, but I

must do as ramot cut commands.

How easily I have humbled forward

of the 20th century's greatest heroes.

Send for my future queen, your pharaoh commands.

I want to resist, but I can't.

We're all trapped.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

What the heck?

It's a comet.

It's your clothes.

There must be a celestial phenomena that took place way

back here in time.

I feel strange, like my old self.

It's changing me back.

I've been grim again.

I'm not under ramot-touch power anymore.

Now's the time to make a break.

Back to you are all slaves.

Sorry, pal.

Come back, you slave.

Sorry, I can't stick around, palley.

But I got to free my process before I

change back to the thing.

Oh, hear me.

I, pharaoh of the seven sons, have decided

the time has come for me to wed.

This woman shall be history's most enbeat queen.

This is terrible.

I'm aching to attack, but I'm powerless.

And now, to my bride-to-be, soon she

shall be queen of all the Nile.

What?

Oh, that's right there.

What?

Another 20th century intruder.

Now that I've got the diode ray, things

are going to be different.

What's this?

It's a reverse switch.

It'll free a person from domination.

Of course, in case ramot-touch wants to release someone.

Uh-oh, the comet's radiation is wearing off.

I'd better free Sue before I fall back

under ramot-touch's power.

He reversed it.

I'm free.

Here, take the gun.

I've got it, Ben.

Thank you, gal.

That's better.

Now, where's old ramot-touching this bully, boys?

It's clobbering time.

[GROWLING]

Now, you're free, Johnny.

Thanks, sis.

Flame on.

No.

Stop.

I command you.

Your commanding days are over.

I must escape to my hidden chamber and rally my forces.

I'm not through yet.

He disappeared, right through the wall.

Hey, there's Reap.

I'll get the diode ray and free him.

Quick, man, the diode ray.

Freeze, wake up.

Thanks, Johnny.

We're all free.

It's good to be in uniform again.

You're back, but it's Reed and Johnny.

Johnny's up in the air.

Up here, and Reed's coming.

Over here.

Isn't this the panel where ramot-touch disappeared?

Yeah.

Come on, gang.

But how are we going to get in?

Leave it to Benji.

This tunnel must come out on the other side of the wall.

Oh, look, a sentry.

I'll stretch out and get him.

He might know where ramot-touch went.

Where is your master?

He has gone through the great things to gather his forces.

Thanks, pal.

Let's go, gang.

We must capture or destroy the Fantastic Four.

Uh-oh, there they are.

And there's old ramot-touch on the Sphinx.

All right.

Let's separate and move in using our own individual powers.

Everyone, keep in touch.

Meet at the Sphinx.

Hey, the girl!

Stop!

Roger!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

OK.

All you soldiers got a good home?

Leave on!

[LAUGHTER]

Hey, Ben, come here.

Good, sweet.

What's up?

Call the others and meet me behind the Sphinx.

I have a plan.

Uh-oh, end signal.

What's this?

Where do the others get here?

What have I missed?

OK, we're all here.

First, we're spotted!

Quick, Reed.

Fire the free diary.

There's so many of us.

Don't know what it'll do, but here it goes.

I'm afraid--

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

Better than I expected.

That's a relief.

This hatch is probably booby trapped.

Let's see.

I was right.

It was out of my eyes.

But it's OK now.

Watch your step.

No sign of Ramatot.

It's some kind of control room.

Look over there.

It's some kind of screen starting to come on.

You have shown more power than I expected.

You must be destroyed.

How many times have we heard that speech?

We're trapped.

Now, prepare for your end.

Electron guns through your force field.

Johnny, go back behind us and burn a hole through that wall.

No sugar said and it's done.

All right.

While Johnny burns the hole, let's move back.

OK, gang.

Get through to the next room.

You'll catch me.

I have repaired the mechanism.

I must now return to the future.

Sounds like Ramatot is winding up as time machine generators.

They'll never stick that high up here.

Let's get out of here before they blow up.

I'll give it to your talent to try and bust through the wall.

Come on, follow back, hurry.

Wow, that looked like the end of Ramatot.

I don't know.

Perhaps he got away before the explosion.

At any rate, if he's in the 20th century, we'll find him.

Speaking of the 20th century, our time is almost up.

Where's Ben?

Oh, for gosh sakes, look.

He's getting his picture taken, Egyptian style.

How do you like that hand?

He's being immortalized in stone.

You guys go on over to our place of entry.

I'll be with you in a minute.

OK, Ben, don't be late.

All set.

We're right on time.

Five, four, three, two, one.

Yes.

Quick trip?

Wow.

Yeah, for 4,000 years.

Let's get out to the ship and head for home.

I've never been out to the museum.

When we get back, let's all go out there.

OK, Ben, good idea.

What do you think, Ben?

I'm flabbergasted.

That's the same one that the guy did yesterday.

Sorry the change to your old self was only temporary.

What the heck?

Maybe it isn't so bad being the ever-loving thing after all.

I'm the only one that's an antique in his own time.

But by starry day.
