0:00:03 > 0:00:06I was delighted when Jamillah was born.

0:00:06 > 0:00:11The seventh child is always a lucky child.

0:00:11 > 0:00:14Her big brothers adored her and she adored them.

0:00:17 > 0:00:21Her grandfather, Jiddo, told her magical stories, which is

0:00:21 > 0:00:23how she learnt about me.

0:00:23 > 0:00:27Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Who drew that? I am way handsomer!

0:00:27 > 0:00:30Jamillah grew up to be courageous.

0:00:31 > 0:00:35One rainy day, Jiddo sent her up to the attic to get

0:00:35 > 0:00:36a box from his trunk.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47Boy, was she in for a surprise.

0:00:49 > 0:00:55If any genies are listening, could you give me a wish?

0:00:55 > 0:00:57Your wish is my command!

0:00:57 > 0:00:58STARTLED CRY

0:01:02 > 0:01:06Listen, don't go dropping the lamp again, OK?

0:01:06 > 0:01:10But, greetings, oh, Wondrous One! Tell me your wish.

0:01:11 > 0:01:15I wish for...

0:01:15 > 0:01:17an adventure.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07That is the only money we have for this week.

0:02:07 > 0:02:11You promise me that you won't go and speak to any passers-by...

0:02:11 > 0:02:12I won't, Ummi.

0:02:12 > 0:02:17- Or explorers?- Uh-huh. - Or magicians?- Yeah.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19Or stray goats...?

0:02:19 > 0:02:22- Uh-hm.- Or lost mice?

0:02:22 > 0:02:26You are going to buy the bread and milk and you are going to

0:02:26 > 0:02:28- come straight back... - DOOR SLAMS

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Bye Ummi, see you later.

0:02:33 > 0:02:34..home.

0:02:46 > 0:02:47Bread and milk.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Nothing else. Bread and milk...

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Excuse me! Would you be interested in buying some trinkets?

0:02:53 > 0:02:56Sorry, I can't stop right now.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59Oh, that is a shame.

0:02:59 > 0:03:00You see, I'm an explorer

0:03:00 > 0:03:05returning from the palace of the great Nebuchadnezzar and...

0:03:08 > 0:03:10..he gave me these magic seeds.

0:03:14 > 0:03:15Nah, sorry...

0:03:18 > 0:03:20What kind of magic do they do?

0:03:20 > 0:03:23Whosoever plants these seeds will gain riches untold

0:03:23 > 0:03:25when the flower blooms.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29Buy them from me young man, and you will be rich!

0:03:31 > 0:03:33I only have this.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35That is the exact amount!

0:03:35 > 0:03:38This is your destiny.

0:03:38 > 0:03:42You simply cannot deny your destiny!

0:03:44 > 0:03:47I am destined to be rich. I've always said so.

0:03:47 > 0:03:51Thank you, whoever you are! Thank you! I'm going to be rich!

0:03:51 > 0:03:54- I'm going to... - Sh-sh-sh! Not so loud!

0:03:54 > 0:03:57You'll have all of Baghdad after your treasure.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59- Do not tell a soul.- It's OK!

0:03:59 > 0:04:00I WON'T!

0:04:00 > 0:04:04(I mean...I won't.)

0:04:11 > 0:04:12Excuse me...

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Jamillah!

0:04:17 > 0:04:19- Nice outfit.- Guess what I bought!

0:04:19 > 0:04:23Magic seeds that bring riches! I'm planting them now.

0:04:23 > 0:04:24Oh, Aladdin.

0:04:24 > 0:04:28Really? You really fell for that old trick?

0:04:28 > 0:04:30It's not a trick. It's magic.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35There's magic everywhere in Baghdad.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43So, how is it supposed to make you rich?

0:04:43 > 0:04:46I think it's something to do with the flower.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49Maybe when it opens money falls out?

0:04:51 > 0:04:53So, how long is it going to take?

0:04:53 > 0:04:55A few seconds, probably.

0:04:55 > 0:04:59They just have to feel the soil and they'll start to grow roots.

0:04:59 > 0:05:05One elephant, two elephant, three elephant...

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Four elephants, five elephant...

0:05:09 > 0:05:11A pinch of this.

0:05:11 > 0:05:12A splash of that.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14HE SNIFFS.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18Amazing!

0:05:18 > 0:05:20But who needs a recipe book?

0:05:21 > 0:05:22More of this.

0:05:22 > 0:05:23A jar of that.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25Some of this...

0:05:25 > 0:05:27Whatever it is.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Uh-oh!

0:05:34 > 0:05:38- Uh-oh!- Oh, Genie! Can you hear me? We need your help!

0:05:38 > 0:05:42Wondrous One! I hear and...

0:05:42 > 0:05:44obey!

0:05:44 > 0:05:45EXPLOSION

0:05:46 > 0:05:48Genie!

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Ew, what is on your face?

0:05:50 > 0:05:54Home-made hair gel! Does wonders for your locks.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Now, what is your desire today, oh, Masters of Magic?

0:05:57 > 0:06:01I'm trying to plant magic seeds but they're not growing.

0:06:01 > 0:06:05We counted to 486 seconds and nothing's happened.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07Can you make them grow?

0:06:10 > 0:06:12Can I!? I'm a genie!

0:06:12 > 0:06:18An athlete. I mean, look at this body, this face, this hair.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20I can do anything!

0:06:20 > 0:06:21Spell book...

0:06:23 > 0:06:27Salamanders, sailboats, saggy socks. Ugh. Aha! Here it is!

0:06:27 > 0:06:29To make seeds grow...

0:06:32 > 0:06:34Zaid-zayd-wa-ha-la-wa-lam!

0:06:36 > 0:06:37You did it!

0:06:39 > 0:06:43So...it's stopped. Why has it stopped?

0:06:46 > 0:06:48Let me check one thing.

0:06:48 > 0:06:52"To ensure the healthy growth of your magic plant you must water

0:06:52 > 0:06:54"with crystal chalice."

0:06:55 > 0:06:58- Do you have a crystal chalice? - A crystal what?

0:06:58 > 0:07:01It's a kind of cup, Aladdin.

0:07:01 > 0:07:05I don't have anything made out of crystal. Look at me.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12Fortune tellers have crystal balls.

0:07:13 > 0:07:17Maybe Razin has a crystal chalice?

0:07:17 > 0:07:19I'll go check, you stay with the plant.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22Wait, please don't tell Razin why you need it.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25The explorer said not to tell a soul, so...

0:07:25 > 0:07:26I won't!

0:07:29 > 0:07:30Pleeeeaaasse, Razin!

0:07:30 > 0:07:34Kindly remove your hands from my rare and delicate chalice!

0:07:34 > 0:07:36But I'll be really careful!

0:07:38 > 0:07:41Who do you think you are? You destroy my shop,

0:07:41 > 0:07:43try and take my precious chalice,

0:07:43 > 0:07:47and you won't even tell me why you need it!

0:07:47 > 0:07:51OK, I'll tell you. But you have to promise not to tell a soul.

0:08:02 > 0:08:06Wonderful! Of course. Take it!

0:08:06 > 0:08:08Thank you! Oops, sorry!

0:08:10 > 0:08:14- Why is she in such a hurry? - Wait 'til you hear this!

0:08:20 > 0:08:21Stand back.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27It worked.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30I'm rich! I'm rich!

0:08:34 > 0:08:35What's that noise?

0:08:35 > 0:08:38I've heard that magical plants have petals of gold!

0:08:38 > 0:08:41And seeds of rubies and emeralds!

0:08:45 > 0:08:46- You told!- I had to!

0:08:46 > 0:08:50He wouldn't give me the chalice, unless I told him why.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53What did you do? I send you to the market for bread

0:08:53 > 0:08:57and you come back with all of these people?

0:08:57 > 0:09:00I didn't buy bread, Ummi.

0:09:01 > 0:09:02I bought this instead.

0:09:06 > 0:09:07Magic seeds.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11When the flower opens, it will bring riches.

0:09:11 > 0:09:15TRUMPETS SOUND IN THE DISTANCE

0:09:18 > 0:09:20TRUMPETS GET CLOSER

0:09:20 > 0:09:22(It's the sultan.)

0:09:22 > 0:09:26Welcome, Great Sultan.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37Word has reached me of a rare and magical plant.

0:09:39 > 0:09:44- Ah, is this it? - Uh-huh.- Are you the owner?

0:09:45 > 0:09:46Er...

0:09:46 > 0:09:50- I am, your Highness. - It's opening! Look!

0:09:50 > 0:09:53ALL GASP

0:09:53 > 0:09:56Come on. Give me dinar, gold,

0:09:56 > 0:10:01rubies, emeralds, diamonds!

0:10:01 > 0:10:03- What is that smell?- Disgusting!

0:10:03 > 0:10:05Genie!

0:10:05 > 0:10:10- I humbly apologise for the smell, your Highness.- Apologise?

0:10:10 > 0:10:15Apologise? For what, dear woman? What a glorious scent!

0:10:18 > 0:10:23This plant reminds me of a camel train, lumbering across the desert.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26The first time I travelled across the sands,

0:10:26 > 0:10:28I was just about your age.

0:10:33 > 0:10:38Young man, would you consider selling me this plant?

0:10:38 > 0:10:41I'll give you a gold coin for it.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43I... I...

0:10:43 > 0:10:45You drive a hard bargain.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Three gold coins, then.

0:10:50 > 0:10:51Final offer.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01Ummi, we're rich!

0:11:01 > 0:11:05Guard, dig up this plant and transport it to my palace.

0:11:05 > 0:11:10- Thank you, Sultan! - No, child, thank you.

0:11:12 > 0:11:13My dear children...

0:11:14 > 0:11:17.riches come in many forms.

0:11:17 > 0:11:24This plant reminds me of happy, carefree days and great adventures.

0:11:24 > 0:11:28And that, to me, is a priceless gift.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52You see, mum, the seeds WERE magic!

0:11:54 > 0:11:57Every story has an ending.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00And, eventually, Jamillah had to say goodbye to Baghdad.

0:12:00 > 0:12:03It was nice to get home and see her family.

0:12:03 > 0:12:08But Jamillah couldn't wait for her next adventure with Aladdin and me,

0:12:08 > 0:12:10her brilliant Genie.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16# So what is your wish, say, oh, Wondrous One?

0:12:18 > 0:12:24# Just don't rock my lamp, and your will is done

0:12:26 > 0:12:31# No need for applause, yes, I'm number one

0:12:32 > 0:12:38# A thousand years, in here, it's been too long

0:12:40 > 0:12:45# Your genius genie, so smart and strong

0:12:46 > 0:12:49# Shazam! Al Kazam! Aghh!

0:12:49 > 0:12:52# It's all gone wrong!

0:12:54 > 0:12:56# She's Jamillah, she's a scamp

0:12:56 > 0:13:00# I'm the Genie, from the lamp

0:13:00 > 0:13:04# That's Aladdin, he's our lad

0:13:04 > 0:13:07# In Old Bagh-da-a-a-a-a-d

0:13:07 > 0:13:10# She's Jamillah, she's a scamp

0:13:10 > 0:13:14# I'm the Genie, from the lamp

0:13:14 > 0:13:17# That's Aladdin, he's our lad

0:13:17 > 0:13:21# In Old Bagh-da-a-a-a-a-d.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24# She's Jamillah, she's a scamp

0:13:24 > 0:13:27# I'm the Genie, from the lamp

0:13:27 > 0:13:32# See the seed, rising up so high

0:13:32 > 0:13:35# Go, seed, stretch up to the sky

0:13:35 > 0:13:39# La, la, la, la, la

0:13:39 > 0:13:47# La, la, la, la, la, la. #
