Orb of Aten

This episode is brilliant, despite the fact that the titular Orb of Aten is another one of those pointless MacGuffin artefacts that really adds nothing to the show in itself. The New York stuff with Alex, Rick and Evy is all excellent, particularly their character interplay and family teamwork. Alex demonstrates (not for the first or last time, of course) that his greatest attributes are his own innate skills, both physical and mental, particularly during the museum sequence. I also like the intriguing allusions to Rick's past, including plenty of inspiration from the movie canon. Imhotep and Weasler are more entertaining than usual here - it's nice to see some care and attention paid to them and their dynamic for a change.
