SPOILER ALERT!: The cartouche she bought


Whose name do you think is on it? In the scene in the taxi with her husband he noticed she had bought a cartouche and he asked her if it was his name on it. She smiled but didn't answer. I think the husband just assumed it was his name so he didn't expect an answer. But I remember that she thanked Tareq when she purchased it. What do you think?

yes, it's Tareq's name in hieroglyphics; the director in the commentary confirms this and says it's considered good luck and a way to ward off bad people
