  Penfold : Not secret enough for me.

  Penfold : [spots an enormous statue]  Aargh! What's that?

  Danger Mouse : Oh, that's Anubis.

  Penfold : But he's got clothes on, Chief.

  Danger Mouse : No, no, not a nudist, Penfold, Anubis. It's the ancient Egyptians god of embalming.

  Penfold : I don't know about him, I'm barmy for coming down here.

  Penfold : Yes. Very little. Almost invisible.

  Danger Mouse : Penfold...

  Penfold : I know. shush.
