ALADDIN

(JASMINE looks up and sees ALADDIN in the window, motioning her to

play along.)

JASMINE: (She stands and puts the crown on her head.)

Jafar! I never realized how incredibly

handsome you are.

(The GENIE's jaw drops.)

JAFAR: That's better. (He pulls the GENIE's jaw up like a

shade.) Now, pussycat, tell me more

about...myself.

JASMINE: You're tall, well dressed...

(JAFAR walks over to her. ALADDIN jumps down with ABU and GENIE

sees them.)

GENIE: Al! Al, little buddy!

ALADDIN: Shh!

GENIE: (Literally zips his mouth shut, then unzips it.)

Al, I can't help you--I work for senor psychopath,

now. (His head turns into JAFAR's, then back.)

ALADDIN: Hey--I'm a street rat, remember? (He rezips GENIE's

mouth.) I'll improvise.

(He slides down a pile of coins and hides close to JAFAR and JASMINE.

JAFAR's back is to ALADDIN.)

JAFAR: Go on.

JASMINE: And your beard...is so...twisted! (She has her

arms around him. She pretends to twist with her

finger, but she is actually motioning for ALADDIN

to come over. He makes his move. IAGO sees him.)

IAGO: Jaf--mmmmmm! (ABU grabs him and covers his mouth.)

JAFAR: And the street rat?

JASMINE: What street rat?

(They are about to kiss when IAGO manages to knock over a bowl. JAFAR

turns to look, but JASMINE grabs him back and kisses him. ALADDIN

looks disgusted. IAGO and ABU both look disgusted.)

ABU: Yuck!

JAFAR: That was--(he sees ALADDIN's reflection in her

crown.) You!! How many times do I have

to kill you, boy?

(He zaps ALADDIN. JASMINE rushes him, and he throws her to the

ground. ALADDIN rushes and grabs the staff.)

ALADDIN: Get the lamp!

(JASMINE runs to it. JAFAR, however, shakes off ALADDIN, then

zaps her into an hourglass.)

JAFAR: Ah, ah, ah, princess--Your time is up!

(Sand begins to fall from the top onto her.)

ALADDIN: Jasmine!

IAGO: Oh, nice shot, Jaf-- (he is knocked out by ABU.)

(ABU rushes for the lamp.)

JAFAR: Don't toy with me! (He's zapped into a toy monkey.

ALADDIN: Abu!

(CARPET rushes in.)

JAFAR: Things are unraveling fast, now boy. (CARPET is

zapped and unravels. ALADDIN again rushes for the

lamp.) Get the point? (His path is blocked by

large swords sticking in the floor. JAFAR grabs

the lamp and laughs hideously. ALADDIN pulls a

sword out of the floor.) I'm just getting warmed

up! (He breathes a ring of fire around ALADDIN.)

ALADDIN: Are you afraid to fight me yourself, you cowardly

snake?

JAFAR: A snake, am I? Perhaps you'd like to see how

snake-like I can be! (He smiles broadly, and we

see a snake's tongue come out from behind his

teeth. He then turns into a giant cobra, and the

ring of fire around ALADDIN becomes part of the

snake encircling ALADDIN. The snake JAFAR makes

moves on ALADDIN, and on the third try, ALADDIN

swings the sword and hits JAFAR. Cut to GENIE

cheerleaders wearing 'A' sweaters.)

GENIE: Rickem, rockem, rackem, rake--stick that sword into

that snake!

JAFAR: You stay out of thissss!

(GENIE waving a tiny pennant with a 'J' on it.)

GENIE: (Weakly) Jafar, Jafar, he's our man--if he can't do it,

GREAT!

(ALADDIN uses the distraction to make a break for the hourglass where

JASMINE is trapped. However, JAFAR sees this and blocks the path.

ALADDIN is thrown away, and he loses his sword.)

JASMINE: Aladdin!

(ALADDIN jumps on a large gem and slides across the floor, grabbing

the sword on his way. He turns a corner, but the pursuing snake

cannot, and the front half of JAFAR crashes through a wall and

hangs outside the palace. ALADDIN jumps up on the snake's back

and stabs it. JAFAR screams in agony. ALADDIN again tries to

free the princess.)

ALADDIN: Hang on, Jasmine!

(He is about to hit the glass with his sword when JAFAR grabs him.)

JAFAR: (laughs hideously) You little fool! You thought

you could defeat the most powerful being on earth!

IAGO: (with GENIE coming up behind him) Squeeze him,

Jafar--Squeeze him like a--awk! (GENIE elbows him

out of the way)

JAFAR: Without the genie, boy, you're nothing!

ALADDIN: (Has an idea) The genie! The genie! The genie

has more power than you'll ever have!

JAFAR: What!!

ALADDIN: He gave you your power, he can take it away!

GENIE: Al, what are you doing? Why are you bringing me

into this?

ALADDIN: Face it, Jafar--you're still just second best!

JAFAR: You're right! His power does exceed my own! But

not for long!

(JAFAR circles around the GENIE.)

GENIE: The boy is crazy. He's a little punch drunk. One

too many hits with the snake (His hand

turns into a snake and he hits his head with it.)

JAFAR: Slave, I make my third wish! I wish to be an all

powerful genie!

GENIE: (Reluctantly) All right, your wish is my command.

Way to go, Al.

(GENIE zaps JAFAR with the last GENIE (tm) brand lightning bolt.

JAFAR's snake form dissipates and he turns into a genie. We

see JASMINE's raised hand disappear under the sand. ALADDIN

runs over and finally smashes the glass. Sand and princess

pour out.)

JAFAR: Yes! Yes! The power! The absolute power!

JASMINE: (to ALADDIN) What have you done?

ALADDIN: Trust me!

(A black lamp appears at JAFAR's base. JAFAR is busy conjuring.)

JAFAR: The universe is mine to command, to control!

ALADDIN: Not so fast, Jafar! Aren't you forgetting something?

(JAFAR looks down questioningly) You wanted to be a genie, you

got it! And everything that goes with it!

(Shackles appear on JAFAR's wrists.)

JAFAR: No! No!

IAGO: I'm gettin' out of here! Come on, you're the

genie, I don't want--

(IAGO tries to fly away, but is sucked in with JAFAR.)

ALADDIN: Phenomenal cosmic powers! Itty bitty living space.

GENIE: Al, you little genius, you!

(ABU turns back to normal, the CARPET re-ravels, JASMINE, the SULTAN

and RAJAH are standing together. RAJAH jumps up into the arms of

the SULTAN, then they are all transformed. The SULTAN is crushed

because of the weight of the new RAJAH. The palace reappears

where it used to be in the city. ALADDIN is left holding the

new lamp.)

JAFAR: (Both from inside the lamp.) Get your blasted beak

out of my face!

IAGO: Oh, shut up, you moron!

JAFAR: Don't tell me to shut up!

GENIE: Allow me. (He takes the lamp and goes to the

balcony. He is now wearing a baseball cap. He

winds up as if to throw the lamp, but opens his

palm flat and flicks it out into the desert

with his finger.) Ten- thousand years in a cave of

wonders ought to chill him out!

(JAFAR and IAGO continue to argue as they fade out. JASMINE walks

over to ALADDIN. They hold hands, but both look sad.)

ALADDIN: Jasmine, I'm sorry I lied to you about being a

prince.

JASMINE: I know why you did.
