High Priest: The prophecy is strange and crudely drawn at best. It indicates that, we are "here" and our next Pharaoh is over there, near some ... tents.

Bender: (shouting; from reeds) Those are waves, jackass. It's supposed to be a river!

[The slaves murmur to each other.]

Fry: Hey. I think I know who the next Pharaoh is!

Leela: Oh, Lord!

High Priest: We hear your voice, oh, great Pharaoh. Reveal yourself to us.

[Bender stands up.]

Bender: Behold! I have emerged from the place of spells and fairies!

High Priest: It is he. Just as the Wall of Prophecy prophesied. [He points at Bender's imprinted face on the wall.] Long live Pharaoh Bender!

[All the slaves except Fry and Leela bow.]

Slaves: (chanting) Long live Pharaoh Bender!

Leela: This society is a bunch of idiots.

[Scene: Outside Pharaoh's Palace. The High Priest and priests stand on a balcony addressing the slaves.]

High Priest: People of Osiris 4, please welcome a man who started as a slave but worked his way up to Lord of All Creation! Our new Pharaoh, Bender!

[The crowd cheers and Bender dances out to a riff of The Bangles' Walk Like An Egyptian.]

Bender: Citizens of Me! The cruelty of the old Pharaoh is a thing of the past. [The crowd cheers.] Let a whole new wave of cruelty wash over this lazy land.

[The crowd cheers then realises what he has said.]

Leela: What did he say?

Bender: Hear the word of Pharaoh. Build unto me a statue of ridiculous proportion. One billion cubits in height ... [The priests gasp.] ... that I might be remember-ed for all eternity. And be quick about it!



REMEMBER ME
