Aladdin And The Bag Of Money Jamillah and Aladdin

I was delighted when Jamillah was born.

The seventh child is always a lucky child.

Her big brothers adored her and she adored them.

Her grandfather Jiddo told her magical stories,

which is how she learned about me.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Who drew that? I'm way handsomer.

Jamillah grew up to be courageous.

One rainy day, Jiddo sent her up to the attic

to get a box from his trunk.

Boy, was she in for a surprise!

If any genie is in this lamp,

could you give me a wish?

Your wish is my command.

-Oh!

-Ow!

Listen, don't go dropping the lamp again, OK?

But...greetings, oh wondrous one!

Tell me your wish.

I wish for an...

adventure.

-Oh.

-HE PANTS

-HE GROANS

-What is in there?

Oil of cinnamon. Spill one drop and you lose your pay.

I don't like this placement. Take it away.

-Oh, I hate this job.

-Money doesn't grow on trees, boy.

Urchins like you need to work for a living. Ha-ha!

Money, free for the taking!

Fancy new clothes? Just ask and you shall receive.

Money!

Ah, a successful merchant, I see.

Perhaps you're thinking, "If only I could double my business."

If so, I have what you need.

I do not fall for such schemes. Be gone.

Money!

Why are you still here? Go back to work.

Where are you going, you scoundrel?

Excuse me, man with the money, wait up!

-I would like some money.

-Pah! I don't deal with children.

Why not? I need the money more than Mustafa does.

Because you have nothing to offer - no house, no horse, no jewels.

I do have a house, and a yard, and chickens.

You have a house?

Then show me.

Ta-da!

Oh!

It's not new,

but the roof is sound and the walls are strong, all right.

-How much money would you like?

-As much as you can give me.

First, you must sign.

This document acknowledges your consent

to secure the loan of the agreed sum against this property

with the understanding that failure to repay this loan

will result in the transfer of ownership of this property to me.

Um, OK.

But shouldn't my mother be here to sign this?

You are the man of the house, are you not?

-I am.

-Then sign.

Two copies.

Whoa!

Genie, I'm rich!

I'm rich! Yes!

You're rich? Huh! Why, that's great news.

Ah!

Stop it. That's an order.

HE SIGHS

I'm not playing any more games with you.

-SHE SCREAMS

-Oh, I'm so sorry.

Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you.

-Oh! Aladdin, hey!

-Jamillah. What do you think?

-Er, it's not really...you.

-It's not for me. It's for my mother.

I'll take it.

What's all this? And where did you get a donkey?

I bought it. Next, I'm going to buy a saddle.

-How can you afford that?

-With this.

I have money now. A man gave it to me.

Aladdin, why would a man just give you money? Who was he?

I don't know who he was.

But all I had to do was sign a piece of paper.

I think you'd better show me.

Yeah, I can't read it.

-Did you read it?

-Not really.

-Oh!

Genie!

-Your wish is my command.

-Hi, Genie. Can you read this?

Ooh.

Let me see.

Oh, this is quite an ancient language.

Mm-hm. Mm-hm.

And in conclusion, you must pay him back by the end of the day

or he gets your house.

What house? This house?

You're saying that I have to pay him back by the end of the day,

and if not, he gets to keep my house?

-Oh!

-Come back! Where are you going?

Excuse me. Can you give me something back for this?

-I'll give you half the original price for it.

-I'll take it.

-Aladdin!

-Aladdin!

-Where could he be?

-Well, he can't have gone that far.

-I think it's time for a little divide and conquer.

-Huh?

-You go this way, I go that way.

-I...

-Go.

-Uh...

-Oh, right. Yeah, sure.

Aladdin!

What about this beautiful necklace?

Surely you can give me something back? A half? A quarter?

One dinar. Final offer.

-Whoa!

-Oh!

-Any signs?

-No, I couldn't find him anywhere.

-There you are.

-What happened?

-Did you get your money back?

-Only about half of it.

Oh. Can't you do something, Genie? Magic up some money?

As I have told you, I am not allowed to conjure money.

-Not even for a beloved master.

-Well, there's got to be some way

of stopping that evil man from getting your house.

What if he doesn't WANT your house?

Ha! You'll see where I'm going with this in a minute.

Quick! I see him coming!

I have come for my money. Do you have it?

No.

HE CHUCKLES

You do realise what this means?

I do.

Goodbye, house. Goodbye, table.

Goodbye, lamp. Goodbye, pillows.

Oh, wrap it up. I haven't got all day.

Wait! Aladdin, you forgot to say goodbye to Sheba.

Goodbye, Sheba. I'll miss you.

So, who are you? And who is Sheba?

Ooh!

Aaah!

THAT is Sheba.

Well, get him out. He can go cry somewhere else.

-Can't. He comes with the house.

-Ooh!

He's the house ghost. Been here forever.

Oh! Oh!

This boy didn't tell me his house was haunted.

I guess he didn't.

But, then again, you didn't tell him your money wasn't free. Bye!

I have no need for a ghost, Sheba.

Your services are terminated, effective immediately.

And you will pay for these damages, with interest!

Oh!

How dare you? I am a respected businessman.

What just...?

Ooooh!

You are not scaring me.

You are not...

Ah! Ah! Ooh.

Ooh.

Ah! Ah!

Oh! Ah!

Ah! What the...? What the...?

Ah! Ah! Ah!

What is this sorcery?

Enough!

I won't take this house, even if you paid me!

THEY LAUGH

-Whoohoo! Genie, you rock!

-Well, that is my middle name -

Genie Roc Bashir Haddad Fakoui Shamoun.

You saved my house!

And I know just how to thank you. Come on.

Is that really your middle name? How do you remember that?

Easy. Bashir Nasar Salib...

Wait, no, that's not it.

Let's go inside.

The one thing I couldn't sell was the food.

-BOTH:

-Feast!

To Sheba!

Would you like some doughnut?

Now that Aladdin's house was safe once more,

it was time for Jamillah to go.

It was nice to get home and see her family,

but Jamillah couldn't wait for her next adventure with Aladdin,

and me, her brilliant genie.
