*Cut to interior, pyramid; DUCKULA is bound to altar, where he is confronted by cultists HOOMITE and YUBI*

DUCKULA: Who are you?

HOOMITE: We are servants of the great Pharoah, Upshi. I am Hoomite, and this is Yubi.

DUCKULA: Hoomite. Yubi.

HOOMITE: I just told you. And who might YOU be?

DUCKULA: I got that part. Very odd names. You're Yubi, that's Hoomite.

YUBI: I am Yubi.

DUCKULA: "I am, you are."

HOOMITE: You are Yuare?

DUCKULA: I am not "Yuare!" It's "you are," not "you be!"

YUBI: _I_ am Yubi!

DUCKULA: "You ARE!"

YUBI: I am!

HOOMITE: We are servants of the great Pharoah, Upshi, who will be be resurrected by the great god, Ra.

DUCKULA: Ra?

HOOMITE: Ra!

HOOMITE & YUBI: Ra! Ra! Ra!

DUCKULA: And who might Ra be?

HOOMITE: No, "Hoomite," "Yubi!"

DUCKULA: I am Duckula!

HOOMITE: I thought you were Yuare.

DUCKULA: Now let's get this straight. I am not Yuare! I am Duckula! You are Hoomite, that's Yubi. And you want to raise Upshi.

HOOMITE: Upshi will rise when we sacrifice you to our god!

DUCKULA: Who, Ra?

HOOMITE: And Upshi rises!

*all break into song and dance*

ALL: Who, Ra? And Upshi rises! Who, Ra? And Upshi rises! Who, Ra? And Upshi rises!

*Cut to exterior, desert...*

(Note: I forget what comes next, because I was laughing so hard at this point.)

I'm reminded of the I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again sketch with John Cleese as the commander of a German POW camp introducing the new British inmates to his staff. He has already introduced Herr Brush, Herr Net, Herr Lacquer und Herr Restorer:

"Und here ve haff Hans - Hans Boompsadaisy. He is ze uncle of a delightful girl called Ann, who is therefore known as..."

*entire cast joins in*

"HANS' NIECE, ANN BOOMPSADAISY!!"

Must be a U.K.-ism with which I'm not familiar. :) Enlighten me?

'Tis a strange little song, possibly an old music-hall number, the only words of which I know are:

"Hands, knees and boompsadaisy! What is a boomp among friends?"

What is a boomp among friends, you ask? I have no idea. It sounds unspeakably rude.

Nifty! :) But definitely obscure. :)
