Mr. Lancer: Myth of Sisyphus! The Myth of Sisyphus is a Greek mythology book by Albert Camus, about a mortal named Sisyphus who committed crimes, tricked the gods, and cheated death once before he was sent to the underworld and punished by the gods who forced him to push a boulder up a steep hill, and when he failed, the boulder rolled back down and he had to start over again. The reason why Mr. Lancer shouted out the name of this book was because he was pushing up a boulder for the Tucker sphinx and it rolled back down.
