At first afraid, the family led by young son James, accept the mummy and reluctantly allow him to stay until he finds his way safely into the afterlife.

He accidentally creates a truth potion, making for a very interesting party indeed!
James is determined to beat his rival at this year's school science fair. He decides to do a project on the secrets of how the pyramids were built but Nuff's answer isn't helpful -use big bricks and lots of slaves. Nuff brings his Uncle Hep to life to assist James with his science fair project because Hep really does know the secrets.
Ed is running into a string of incredibly bad luck and soon becomes convinced this is the curse of the mummy, so he decides to banish Nuff from the house. Meanwhile, Stephy tries her hand at baby-sitting a neighbour's bratty kid.
The Barnes' discover that a Hollywood film company has come to town to make a movie about Prince Nuffratutti of Abu Simbel. Movie Nuff, however, is portrayed as an evil villain. James and Nuff head to the film set to set the record straight. Nuff gets a part in the movie and goes Hollywood. Stephy attempts to get her parents roles in the movie.
James is being picked on by a bully at school, and is horrified when the bully shows up at his front door. The bully is the brother of Stephy's friend, Brenda Hadley and to make matters worse, Stephy has a crush on the boy. Nuff thinks this kid might be the reincarnation of a horrible bully in Ancient Egypt who terrorized him.
The Barnes' are having a yard sale and the Canopic Jar containing Nuff's brain is accidentally put up for sale. Nuff becomes sillier and stranger the further away his brain gets. He begins to mimic the personality of the person who bought the jar and this clue helps James retrieve it. Ed has made a bet with Stephy that she can't stop complaining about her life for one day.
Nuff decides to resurrect his old house slave to help him with the chores. James takes pity on the poor soul. He manages to inform him that slavery is wrong and convinces him to go on strike. Stephy sets out to prove to her mother that she is an outdoor girl by setting up a campsite in the back yard.
While checking out a new exhibit at the museum, Nuff sees a ring that was given to him when he was a boy and decides he should take it back. A massive manhunt is launched in order to find the thief who stole the priceless artifact and the Barnes family must find a way to put it back. Stephy tries to find out what her parents have bought her for her birthday.
Nuff gets involved in a charity event by auditioning for a money-raising talent show using the magic act and props of an Ancient Egyptian entertainer - featuring an amazing Vanishing Box.

James is selling chocolate-covered almonds as a fund-raiser for school. Nuff offers to help sell them but consumes the chocolate treats himself. Overcome with guilt, Nuff decides to replace them, but, unable to find any almonds, Nuff uses a substitute – dung beetles. The new treats are a hit and sell like crazy - until the secret ingredient is revealed.
When she finds herself without a date yet for an upcoming dance, Stephy decides to transform Nuff into a killer date in order to make her boyfriend jealous and force him to invite Stephy. All Nuff needs is the promise of a bucket of chicken to go along with the plan.
It is Nuff's birthday but nobody seems to take any notice of it so he runs away from home to a place where he feels people will appreciate him – the museum! It is also Brenda's birthday, which is always celebrated elaborately, and Stephy struggles to find the perfect gift for her snooty friend.
Having just watched a marathon of Dracula movies on TV, Nuff becomes convinced that the visiting school principal is in fact a vampire and he not only sets out to prove it but also to protect the family from this evil creature!
