  • Sip — Imhotep's physical form regenerates as he steals organs or fluids from his victims
  • Sip — Jonathan Carnahan makes a cowardly decision immediately followed by a selfish one
  • Sip — Beni Gabor betrays someone or switches his allegiance to whoever has more power
  • Drink Twice — The Book of the Dead is read aloud and triggers a supernatural consequence
  • Drink Twice — A plague — locusts, flesh flies, boils, river of blood — visually manifests in Hamunaptra
  • Drink Twice — Evie translates ancient Egyptian text that unlocks a door, trap, or secret
  • Shot — Imhotep fully regenerates into Boris Karloff perfection and speaks his first line in ancient Egyptian
  • Shot — Beni realizes the scarabs are in his locked chamber with him and begins screaming
