ALADDIN

an announcement to the people.)

SULTAN: People of Agrabah, My daughter has finally chosen a

suitor!

(Cut to behind the curtain, where JASMINE is peeking. ALADDIN

appears at the bottom of the stairs.)

ALADDIN: Jasmine?

JASMINE: Ali, where have you been?

ALADDIN: There's something I've got to tell you.

JASMINE: The whole kingdom has turned out for father's

announcement!

ALADDIN: No! But Jasmine, listen to me, please!

JASMINE: Good luck! (She pushes him out onto the platform

with the SULTAN, where he overlooks the entire

crowd.)

SULTAN: ...Ali Ababwa!

ALADDIN: Oh, boy!

(Far above, IAGO and JAFAR watch through a window.)

IAGO: Look at them, cheering that little pipsqueak.

JAFAR: Let them cheer.

(He lifts the lamp and rubs it. GENIE comes out.)

GENIE: You know Al, I'm getting (turns and sees JAFAR)

reallyyyyyy--I don't think you're him. (He

descends and consults a playbill.) Tonight, the

role of Al will be played by a tall, dark and

sinister ugly man.

JAFAR: I am your master now. (He throws GENIE to the

ground and puts his foot on GENIE's face.)

GENIE: I was afraid of that.

JAFAR: Genie, grant me my first wish. I wish to rule on

high, as sultan!!!

(Cut to ext where dark clouds circle the castle. The castle shakes.

The roof rips off and the SULTAN and ALADDIN duck.)

ALADDIN: Whoa!

SULTAN: Bless my soul. What is this? What is going on?

(His turban lifts off his head. When he grabs it, his whole body

flies up, then is stripped of all his clothing except his boxer

shorts. The clothing reappears on JAFAR.)

JAFAR: Heh heh heh!

SULTAN: Jafar, you vile betrayer.

IAGO: That's Sultan Vile Betrayer to you.

ALADDIN: Oh, yeah? Well, we'll just see about that! (Pulls

off his own turban, but finds it empty) The lamp!

JAFAR: Finders-keepers, Abooboo.

(They both look up and see a gigantic GENIE lift the palace into

the clouds.. ALADDIN whistles and CARPET flies up to greet him.

They fly up near the GENIE's head.)

ALADDIN: Genie! No!

GENIE: Sorry, kid--I got a new master now. (He places the

palace on top of a mountain.)

SULTAN: Jafar, I order you to stop!

JAFAR: There's a new order now--my order! Finally, you

will bow to me!

(The SULTAN bows, but JASMINE does not.)

JAFAR: We'll never bow to you!

IAGO: Why am I not surprised?

JAFAR: If you will not bow before a sultan, then you will

cower before a sorcerer! (To GENIE) Genie, my

second wish--I wish to be the most powerful

sorcerer in the world!

(GENIE extends his finger. ALADDIN tries to stop him, but he cannot,

and another GENIE (tm) brand lightning bolt strikes JAFAR,

returning him to his normal look.)

IAGO: Ladies and gentlemen, a warm Agrabah welcome for

Sorcerer Jafar!

JAFAR: Now where were we? Ah, yes--abject humiliation!

(He zaps JASMINE and the SULTAN with his staff, and

they both bow to him. RAJAH comes running at him.

He zaps RAJAH, and the tiger turns into a kitty-

cat.) Down, boy! Oh, princess--(lifts her chin

with his staff)--there's someone I'm dying to

introduce you to.

ALADDIN: (off-camera) Jafar! Get your hands off her!

(JAFAR zaps ALADDIN. CARPET flies away.)

JAFAR: Prince Ali

Yes, it is he,

But not as you know him.

Read my lips and come to grips

With reality

(JAFAR brings the two of them closer in the air.)

Yes, meet a blast from your past

Whose lies were too good to last

Say hello to your precious Prince Ali!

(JAFAR zaps ALI back to ALADDIN.)

IAGO: Or should we say Aladdin?

ALADDIN: Jasmine, I tried to tell you.

JAFAR: So Ali turns out to be merely Aladdin

Just a con, need I go on?

Take it from me

His personality flaws

Give me adequate cause

To send him packing on a one-way trip

So his prospects take a terminal dip

His assets frozen, the venue chosen

Is the ends of the earth, whoopee!

So long,

IAGO: Good bye, see ya!

JAFAR: Ex-Prince Ali!

(JAFAR has zapped ABU back to normal. He sends the two of them into

a tall pillar, then launches it like a rocket, but not before

CARPET can get in. F2B, then we see a snowy wasteland, where

the pillar crashes and rolls. It finally comes to a stop.

ALADDIN emerges, obviously very cold.)

ALADDIN: Abu? Abu! (He looks back at a shivering pile of

snow.) Oh, this is all my fault--I should have

freed the genie when I had the chance. (He digs

out ABU and cradles him inside his vest.) Abu!

Are you okay? I'm sorry, Abu--I made a mess of

everything, somehow. I gotta go back and set

things right. (He starts to walk through the snow,

and he eventuallysteps on a frozen CARPET.)

Carpet! (He looks up and sees CARPET is pinned by

the pillar. He tugs to try and free CARPET. He

can't do it, so he begins to remove snow from the

base of the pillar.) Abu, start digging! That's

it! (Finally, enough snow has been removed, and

the pillar begins to roll. ALADDIN runs away,

looks back, then slides into place. The pillar

rolls over him, and when it is gone, ALADDIN and

ABU are left sitting in the patch of snow made by

the window of the pillar.) Yeah! All right! (He

looks up at his turban, made out of scared ABU.

CARPET shakes off the snow and rushes over to pick

them up.) Now, back to Agrabah! Let's go!

(We cut back to ext. long shot of Agrabah, shrouded in red clouds.

Cut to int. and slow zoom of throne room. IAGO has the SULTAN

tied up like a marionette, and JASMINE is chained next to the

throne.)

IAGO: Puppet ruler want a cracker? Here's your cracker.

Shove 'em all right down your throat. Here, have

lots!

(JAFAR pulls the chain, and JASMINE walks up to him holding an apple.)

JAFAR: Leave him alone!

(IAGO stops for a second, then continues.)

JAFAR: It pains me to see you reduced to this, Jasmine.

(He takes a bite out of the apple she is holding.)

A beautiful desert bloom such as yourself should be

on the arm of the most powerful man in the world.

(He waves his finger and a crown appears.) What do

you say, my dear? Why, with you as my queen...

(She picks up a glass of wine and throws it in his face.)

JASMINE: Never!

JAFAR: I'll teach you some respect! (She falls back as he

raises his hand to slap her. Then he stops.) No.

Genie, I have decided to make my final wish. I

wish for Princess Jasmine to fall desperately in

love with me.

(We see ALADDIN race back into town.)

GENIE: (Again as Buckley) Ah, master-- there are a few

addendas, some quid pro quo-

JAFAR: Don't talk back to me, you stupid blue lout! You

will do what I order you to do, slave!
