Spoilers ahead
In Egypt, a three-sided pyramid is unearthed by Dr. Miles Holden Denis O’Hare and his archaeological team. When a remote-controlled rover sent to map the interior goes offline, they push inward to recover it, and the path grows increasingly perilous. An unstable floor collapses beneath them, injuring Zahir as his leg is crushed and pinned beneath the rubble. Sunni attempts a risky retreat to higher ground, but is ambushed by an emaciated feline creature and forced to withdraw. The group leaves Zahir behind to search for another exit, only to be haunted by the sound of his screams moments later; they come back to find that only his severed leg remains, stubbornly pinned under the rock.
