The Palace Garden 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, Giddo,

told her magical stories, which is how she learned about me.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Who drew that? I am way handsomer.

Jamillah grew up to be courageous.

One rainy day, Giddo sent her up to the attic

to get a box from his trunk.

Boy, was she in for a surprise.

If any genie's in this lamp, could you give me a wish?

Your wish is my command!

Ah!

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

But... Greetings, oh wondrous one! Tell me your wish.

I wish for...an adventure.

Uh!

Uh!

Ooh!

Jamillah, hooray!

Aladdin, are you stealing fruit again?

It's not stealing. No-one ever eats these.

They just splat to the ground and rot.

Besides, there my mum's favourite.

Hey! Get away from the palace wall, you shameless rascal.

Hide, the guards are coming!

Run, Aladdin, run!

Ahh!

Come on.

I can do it.

Just...

Great.

Whoa.

This is so beautiful.

Hey, guards. Ha!

Give up, slowcoaches.

He can't be that quick.

Quit playing with the basket. The little toerag went that way.

Jamillah? Are you OK?

Jamillah? Can you hear me?

I'm fine. Over here!

You have to see this place. It's beautiful.

You are in the palace garden, Jamillah.

If anyone catches you, they will lock you away for 100,000 years!

-No way. Really?

-You have to get out!

I can't. The tree is too big.

Try the wall.

There's nowhere to put my feet.

OK, I'll have to find something to get you out.

-Hide until I get back.

-OK, but hurry!

RATTLING

Oh, no, it's not here.

Genie.

I can't find the ladder. Can you help me?

-And one, two, three...

-MUFFLED:

-'Genie!'

-..four and five...

-Ow, ow...

-'Genie! Genie, help me!'

Ooh.

'Right now, as in NOW!'

We can do this.

Keep...going.

Keep...pushing to the...end.

Where is that genie? Ah!

Whoa!

Fine, Genie, I'm going without you.

Aladdin? Going where? Was that you shaking my lamp?

I've asked you a million times not to do that.

Aladdin?

Wait for me.

That boy has no regards for my space or my needs.

He just waltzes away without an apology.

No, sirree.

Not on my watch.

BUZZING

Get away, you.

Ah, a wasp!

Oops.

Oh, no.

Jamillah, are you still in there?

-Ahem.

-Genie, I need you.

-Did you or did you not knock over my lamp?

Oh, come on. It's Jamillah.

You need to take ownership for your mistakes, boy.

Wondrous Jamillah didn't topple my lamp, you did.

And if you think breaking into the Sultan's garden is a way to

avoid saying sorry, then you've got another thing coming.

Genie, can you listen to me?

-Jamillah fell over this wall into the palace garden.

-No.

-Yes!

-She's in a seriously big trouble.

-No!

-Yes!

-If a guard catches her, they'll lock her away for 100,000 years.

-NO!

-Yes!

-We have to rescue her.

-No.

-Wha...

-I mean, yes. Yes.

Super Genie to the rescue.

Wiakasa hanyuwayyyyy.

Oh!

HE COUGHS

Couldn't you've just made the ladder longer?

Yeah. You're on my wavelength.

I was just about to do that anyway.

Marahaban taihafalak halubaloo.

Brilliant!

-WHISPER:

-Jamillah!

-Jamillah!

-Jamillah!

-Jamillah!

-GIGGLING

-Jamillah!

This is worse than I imagined.

-She's a prisoner.

-What should we do?

We'll distract the guards with flying dogs,

throw in a few fireworks and...

No, that won't cut it.

Oh, how about we surprise the guards with a cloud of smoke

and an army of 10,000 monkeys?

10,000 monkeys?

Then, we rescue Jamillah like the mighty Hercules.

I'm going in.

Hang on.

We need to settle the details!

Ahh!

GENIE SHOUTS

Intruder! Protect the princess!

Let go! We are here to rescue Jamillah.

-Genie, go with the 10,000 monkeys.

-We need backup!

Expected 10,000 monkeys to storm the palace!

-Uhh, what are you doing?

-What does it look like? We're saving you.

Ha, I don't need saving.

I was playing blind man's buff with the princess.

But you were blindfolded.

That's how you play. It's a game.

-Your Highness, can you confirm this?

-I can.

I bumped into this girl, Jamillah, and she taught me a game.

And these are her friends. I guess.

My BEST friends.

As you say.

So...

So...

Tag, you're it!

-One, go!

-THEY LAUGH

Here, Genie! Ooh!

Anybody.

THEY LAUGH

Hello? Anybody?!

Hey!

-Adieu.

-See you.

-Bye.

Oh, wait. You forgot your...

Whatever this is.

It's a headband. You wear it in your hair.

You can keep it.

Thanks.

I rocked at that game. I owned it. Super Genie.

Speaking of Super Genie, could you really have charmed 10,000 monkeys?

-Well, not exactly 10,000. More like...

-One.

-One?

Ah, that sounds about right.

HE LAUGHS

Super Genie!

Every story has an ending.

And eventually, Jamillah had to say goodbye to Baghdad.

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.
