The Storyline
WAKKO: Deep in the desert, Princess Jasmine lived with her father, the king and their pet tiger.

DOT: The Sultan had said Jasmine must marry a prince soon, but Jasmine wanted to marry for love, not just to make her papa happy!

WAKKO: In a nearby village, there lived a prince by the name of Aladdin. His best friend was his pet monkey.

DOT: Aladdin was poor, but he had big dreams.

WAKKO: "Someday we'll live in a palace," he told his monkey.

DOT: Jasmine refused to be married, so she disguised herself as a peasant and left home.

WAKKO: In the marketplace, she accidentally stole an apple. A guard grabbed Jasmine, but Aladdin stepped in to protect her.

DOT: Aladdin took Jasmine to his home. As they talked, they discovered they each dreamed of living a life different than their own. "I ran away and I'm not going back," Jasmine told Prince Aladdin the street rat.

WAKKO: Then the palace guards burst in and seized Aladdin! Jasmine revealed herself as the princess and demanded Aladdin be freed.

DOT: To her shock, the guards refused. Aladdin was taken away.

WAKKO: While locked in the palace dungeon, Aladdin met an old man who helped him escape.

DOT: The old man took Aladdin and Abu to a cave. He wanted Aladdin to retrieve a magical oil lamp hidden inside.

Wakko: Aladdin and Abu found the lamp and a magic carpet, but as they left, the Cave began to rumble, shake and turn into lava.

DOT: At the entrance, the old man wouldn't help them. He was really the king's wicked henchman.

WAKKO: Though stuck in the cave, Aladdin's pet monkey had tricked the wicked henchman and kept the magical oil lamp for Prince Aladdin himself.

DOT: When Aladdin rubbed it, a genie whirled out of the lamp to rescue them from the Cave AND to grant Aladdin three wishes!

WAKKO: Aladdin's first wish was to be a real prince. Disguised as a wealthy prince visiting from another kingdom, Aladdin went to see Princess Jasmine once again.

DOT: That night, Aladdin took Jasmine on a magical rug ride to remember.

WAKKO: Flying over deserts, mountains, and seas, Jasmine and Aladdin discovered a great big universe.

DOT: That wonderful, magical night brought them closer together, so they fell in love. "Good night, my handsome prince," whispered Jasmine at the end of their flight.

WAKKO: Aladdin kissed Jasmine. Aladdin was so excited! He felt as if he was walking on air.

DOT: The wicked henchman had an evil plan. He ordered his guards to throw Prince Aladdin into the sea.

WAKKO: Aladdin used his second wish to have the genie rescue him, but then, the wicked henchman stole the magic lamp!

DOT: Now the Genie had to serve the mean henchman, who was holding Jasmine prisoner!

WAKKO: As Aladdin sneaked into the palace to save her, Jasmine used her charms to distract the mean henchman.

DOT: Aladdin tricked the wicked henchman into using one of his wishes.

WAKKO: "I wish to be an all-powerful genie!" proclaimed the mean henchman.

DOT: He became an evil genie, and Aladdin trapped him inside a magic lamp for all time!

WAKKO: The king told Jasmine that she could marry whomever she chose. Princess Jasmine chose to marry her one true love, Prince Aladdin!

DOT: Aladdin used his final wish to free the Genie forever. In a flash, the Genie dressed up to visit the world.

WAKKO: Guess what happened at the very end? (pause for children to guess) Aladdin and Jasmine lived very happily ever after!
