Tom Thomas builds a model of an Egyptian pyramid with a labyrinth inside for a school competition. Nolik enters the pyramid hoping to find a mummy inside and quickly finds himself lost and unable to get out of the maze. Fire and Digit go in to rescue him, but they too get lost inside the labyrinth. Simka explains to Tom Thomas a few different ways to get out of a labyrinth and uses one these scientifically sound methods to rescue Nolik, Digit and Fire. She ties one end of a rope around her waist and the other end outside the entrance. When she finds the boys inside she can easily lead them back out of the pyramid. Nolik exits last wrapped up in the rope like a mummy. This makes his friends laugh. Tom Thomas leaves for school with his model. He wins the contest because he knew the answer to the question of how to successfully pass through a maze.
