There they meet "Fear Facers" host Rock Rivers whose show was recently canceled because he faked some footage. He tells them he is in Egypt investigating a curse. Scooby picks up a scent on "the old nose radar" and leads the gang to Velma. Velma is surprised to see her friends. Daphne notices something around Velma's neck. Velma then shows the gang the ancient necklace she found. She introduces the gang to Omar and they start to explain the curse. Suddenly, the gang is surrounded by a swarm of dirt bikes and helicopters. Dr. Amelia Von Butch, an archeologist and treasure hunter, steps out of one of the helicopters and proceeds to the tomb. Velma and Omar plead with Von Butch not to enter the tomb by telling her of the curse, which says all who enter will be turned to stone.
