Holy Headaches! At Yale University, two falling flower pots to the noggin cause a professor and two students to believe that they are King Tut, his Lord Chancellor and a Jester. Tut and his henchmen steal a jewelled sarcophagus from the Gotham City Museum, and then make plans to kidnap Lisa Carson, the daughter of wealthy socialite John E. Carson, from an Egyptian Costume Ball, which she is to attend dressed as Queen Cleopatra. Learning of the museum robbery, Batman and Robin immediately suspect that their old enemy King Tut has returned, and they speed off to the home of Egyptian pantomimist Fouad Sphinx, where they discover a message left by the mad monarch. Meanwhile, Commissioner Gordon assigns his officers to stand guard at the Ball, but when Deputy Mayor Zorty arrives dressed as King Tut, they mistake him for the real king and promptly arrest him. Then the real Tut arrives and dances off with Lisa right under the noses of the authorities…
