The Twilight Zone Recap: Queen of the Nile
As Jordan Herrick notices the date on the picture, he knows something is amiss. The portrait is 25 years old, but that would make her 14 or 15, and there is simply no way that she could have been that young when it was painted. And she made a movie years before that, she would have had to be 10 or younger. It's not possible.
Still, she is so alluring that he becomes ensnared in her web, and soon he cannot escape. So they have dinner and he finds that she is simply beautiful. His colleague gathers information and it seems perhaps she is older even than he suspects - the woman who she calls mother appears to be her daughter, so she may be 70 or older!
As it turns out, she is older even than this, as she protects her sacred scarab, the secret of pharoahs, and as she drugs Jordy and places it on his body to extract his life essence he finally knows the secret, but now it's too late - she takes the life from others and uses it as her own. Perhaps she really is Cleopatra and those Egyptian artifacts are real. But Jordy shall never know the truth, for he is now simply dust.
