Notes:

Headcanon about Tucker’s connection with his Egyptian past life

Chapter Text

Tucker is legit the descendent and/or reincarnation of an ancient Egyptian Pharaoh if you don't think that's the coolest shit then get out of my face, and let's think about the world he transports them to, it's obviously somewhere in the ghost zone, some ancient Egyptian kingdom probably cursed by their Pharaoh to await in limbo for his return (which would make a really interesting back-story hey), even if Tucker transports them back in the end that kingdom is still there somewhere.

But what I found really interesting was how even though initially Duul Aman's personality completely took Tucker over and it took Danny taking the sceptre from him to snap him out of it, at the end of the episode Tucker takes the sceptre back and remains in control.

It usually annoys me how in this show when things take over Sam and Tucker it's always Danny who snaps them out of it, they never get a chance to fight it off themselves (lookin' at you Urban Jungle), but in this case Tucker did get control, but only after he was made aware that he was being controlled, that makes it a little more interesting, it makes it seem less like something was controlling and more like something was being brought forth within him, it would be more subtle and more natural and Tucker wouldn't even realise it had happened until the connection was broken and he was snapped back to normal modern day Tucker.

Even though this episode hardly gets acknowledged again (if at all) imagine if Tucker started remembering things from his time as a Pharaoh, started doing more research on Duul Aman, figured out more on who he was and what he was like and starts unlocking vague memories of a previous life, because it's more likely that Tucker IS a reincarnation rather than just a descendent (although he could probably be both) because through this whole episode we don't see Duul Aman at all, not as a ghost, not even as another voice in Tucker's head, not as anything but Tucker.

Because he ISN'T a separate entity, Duul Aman and Tucker are the same spirit, the sceptre is just used as a link to channel Duul Aman and bring his forgotten personality and memories forth.

And maybe when Tucker's older he actually goes out into the ghost zone and looks for this kingdom because he wants to know more, and he finds them still locked in time, incapable of evolving until the Pharaoh returns to break them out of their curse.

The only question now is if Tucker decides to take his throne before or after he dies.
