I was delighted when Jamillah was born.

0:00:030:00:06

The seventh child is always a lucky child.

0:00:060:00:10

Her big brothers adored her and she adored them.

0:00:100:00:14

Her grandfather Jiddo told her magical stories, which is

0:00:170:00:21

how she learned about me.

0:00:210:00:23

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Who drew that?

0:00:230:00:25

I'm way handsomer.

0:00:250:00:27

Jamillah grew up to be courageous.

0:00:270:00:30

One rainy day Jiddo sent her up to the attic to get

0:00:310:00:35

a box from his trunk.

0:00:350:00:37

Boy, was she in for a surprise.

0:00:440:00:47

If any genies are listening,

0:00:500:00:53

could you give me a wish?

0:00:530:00:55

ECHOING: Your wish is my command!

0:00:550:00:57

LOUD RUMBLING

0:00:570:01:00

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

0:01:010:01:04

But greetings, Oh Wondrous One! Tell me your wish!

0:01:040:01:10

I wish for...

0:01:110:01:14

an adventure.

0:01:140:01:16

Gather round for an important announcement!

0:02:200:02:23

Today, at half-past the noonday sun,

0:02:230:02:26

your lives will be graced by a visit from...

0:02:260:02:29

HERALD PLAYS CALL WITH LIPS

0:02:310:02:34

-..the Emperor of China!

-CROWD GASPS

0:02:360:02:39

Wait, what? I didn't hear him. What did you say?

0:02:390:02:43

Yes, the exalted Emperor Of China is visiting the Sultan

0:02:430:02:48

and will pass through this market!

0:02:480:02:50

The Sultan has decreed that you will all endeavour to

0:02:500:02:54

impress our noble guest.

0:02:540:02:56

If the Emperor likes your wares, he may favour you with...

0:02:560:03:01

-a nod!

-GASPS

0:03:010:03:03

-RAZIN:

-A nod! Did you hear that?

-MUSTAFA: A nod! A nod!

0:03:030:03:06

A nod from the Emperor? I want one...

0:03:060:03:09

MAGICAL CHIME

0:03:090:03:12

GASPS AND APPLAUSE

0:03:160:03:18

Er...ta-dah!

0:03:200:03:22

Do you mistake ME for the Emperor?

0:03:250:03:27

Save your performance for him.

0:03:270:03:30

Anyone who does not please the Emperor will be

0:03:310:03:35

banished from the market and from this city - for ever!

0:03:350:03:39

GASPS

0:03:390:03:42

HERALD PLAYS CALL WITH LIPS

0:03:460:03:49

That was amazing, Jamillah!

0:03:550:03:57

Do that for the Emperor!

0:03:570:03:59

Are you kidding? It was an accident!

0:03:590:04:02

So next time do it on purpose.

0:04:020:04:04

We'll do something together and I have the perfect costume.

0:04:050:04:09

Let's go!

0:04:090:04:11

I shall polish my apples until they gleam.

0:04:130:04:17

My pomegranates will gleam even more!

0:04:170:04:20

And I will do something very exciting!

0:04:200:04:22

With coloured smoke and things that go bang!

0:04:220:04:26

Then I shall juggle my apples. Like so!

0:04:290:04:33

Where can it be?

0:04:420:04:44

It's got to be here somewhere.

0:04:470:04:49

Hey, where did you get that chest from? My Jiddo has one just like it.

0:04:510:04:56

I don't know. It's been here for ever.

0:04:560:04:59

Oh...

0:05:010:05:04

A-ha! There you are!

0:05:040:05:06

Hey, Genie. It's me, Jamillah. Are you home?

0:05:090:05:14

I love these guys.

0:05:180:05:20

Genie, can you hear me?

0:05:220:05:24

Jamillah! I hear and...

0:05:240:05:27

obey.

0:05:270:05:29

I hope you're not looking, Oh Wondrous One!

0:05:310:05:35

It's a bit messy down here.

0:05:350:05:37

I'm not looking. I'm just saying hi.

0:05:370:05:40

Oh... Er... Hi, yourself! How are you! What's news?

0:05:400:05:45

Not much. The Emperor's coming to town.

0:05:450:05:49

The Emperor?

0:05:510:05:52

-The one from China, you mean?

-I guess...

0:05:540:05:57

Guess?! Do you not know how important this is?

0:06:000:06:03

Oh, my word!

0:06:030:06:05

I have been dying to meet him!

0:06:050:06:07

OK, look, I must...perform.

0:06:070:06:10

I must display my talent!

0:06:110:06:15

ALADDIN CLEARS THROAT

0:06:180:06:20

Well, what do you think?

0:06:210:06:25

OK, my first reaction is...

0:06:270:06:30

No. Just no.

0:06:340:06:36

-I'm sorry.

-SHE SNORTS

0:06:360:06:38

You look...

0:06:400:06:41

Perfect, I know. The Emperor's going to love it.

0:06:410:06:46

Come on, it's time!

0:06:460:06:47

HERALD PLAYS CALL WITH LIPS

0:07:000:07:02

Five minutes, the Emperor arrives in five minutes.

0:07:020:07:08

I shall juggle three apples to perfection!

0:07:090:07:12

LAUGHTER

0:07:120:07:14

There, perfect.

0:07:180:07:21

A-ha. Behold...

0:07:210:07:22

A bit more excitement...

0:07:250:07:27

Two! I shall juggle two apples to perfection.

0:07:280:07:32

LAUGHTER

0:07:350:07:38

What do you think? Should I do my dove-producing trick

0:07:380:07:41

or the one where five elephants prance around in a circle?

0:07:410:07:45

-Can you do those tricks?

-What do you take me for? Of course I can.

0:07:450:07:50

Al-la-swa-ha-la-me-su-ma-SIM!

0:07:500:07:54

MAGICAL CHIME

0:07:540:07:56

I'd go for the dove.

0:08:020:08:05

HERALD PLAYS CALL WITH LIPS

0:08:070:08:10

The Emperor has arrived! Take your places, everyone! Places!

0:08:100:08:15

I've got an idea. Aladdin, climb on Genie's shoulders. Hurry!

0:08:150:08:20

I would not expect much, Your Majesty. It is a simple market.

0:08:280:08:33

Why am I doing this?

0:08:390:08:41

It's a trick I learnt at gymnastics.

0:08:410:08:44

I'm going to do a round-off and, Aladdin, you grab my feet

0:08:440:08:48

and pull me up.

0:08:480:08:50

Then I'll be on your shoulders and you'll be on Genie's!

0:08:500:08:53

No tickling, though. Do not tickle the Genie.

0:08:530:08:57

OK, ready?

0:08:570:09:00

THEY GROAN

0:09:000:09:03

Don't fall!

0:09:110:09:13

Don't...

0:09:160:09:17

GASPS

0:09:210:09:24

LOUD GASPS

0:09:370:09:40

This is an outrage! How dare you insult the Emperor!

0:09:420:09:47

Shut down this market immediately!

0:09:470:09:49

You will all be in jail by sundown!

0:09:490:09:52

-EMPEROR:

-You are wrong, Vizier. That was charming! So amusing!

0:09:560:10:01

EMPEROR LAUGHS

0:10:010:10:05

Oh, yes. Quite comic, Your Highness.

0:10:050:10:09

Release him.

0:10:110:10:12

-EMPEROR:

-Who is responsible for this...display?

0:10:140:10:18

Your Worshipfulness! Salaam! Ahlan wa Sahlan!

0:10:230:10:27

Allow me to present you an elephant!

0:10:270:10:32

Al-la-swa-ha-la-me-su-ma-SIM!

0:10:320:10:36

MAGICAL CHIME

0:10:360:10:38

-EMPEROR:

-You, sir, are hilarious. The worst magician I've ever seen!

0:10:400:10:46

Your costume will not soon be forgotten.

0:10:470:10:51

I invite you all to perform this act for the Sultan tomorrow night.

0:10:510:10:56

Perhaps you can amuse him as much as you amuse me.

0:10:560:11:00

Did you hear that?! We get to perform for the Sult...

0:11:030:11:08

-EMPEROR LAUGHS LOUDLY

-So funny! So funny!

0:11:080:11:11

I shall present the Sultan with the finest pomegranates in all the land!

0:11:230:11:27

I will read the Sultan's fortune.

0:11:270:11:29

Well, I will juggle one apple. Like so! Ha!

0:11:290:11:33

Only better.

0:11:360:11:38

I admit I need some work, but "worst magician ever"?

0:11:420:11:46

Am I that bad, Jamillah?

0:11:460:11:48

You're the best, Genie. The best!

0:11:480:11:51

We couldn't have made this mess without you!

0:11:510:11:54

That is true. No-one is better at creating a mess!

0:11:540:11:58

Every story has an ending.

0:12:080:12:11

And eventually Jamillah had to say goodbye to Baghdad.

0:12:110:12:15

It was nice to get home and see her family.

0:12:150:12:18

But Jamillah couldn't wait for her next adventure with Aladdin

0:12:180:12:22

and me, her brilliant Genie.

0:12:220:12:24
