﻿1
00:00:13,334 --> 00:00:18,453
Now do you see why my king likes the story of Aladdin?

2
00:00:18,454 --> 00:00:21,361
It is so exciting!

3
00:00:21,362 --> 00:00:26,627
By now, you probably know that Magrib is truly an evil magician.

4
00:00:26,628 --> 00:00:30,449
He's not Aladdin's uncle at all.

5
00:00:30,450 --> 00:00:35,610
Magrib has told so many lies to Aladdin and his mother!

6
00:00:35,611 --> 00:00:38,109
Why? I'll tell you.

7
00:00:38,110 --> 00:00:41,860
He wants to get his hands on that lamp.

8
00:00:41,861 --> 00:00:45,685
You see, Magrib was not born in Aladdin's city.

9
00:00:45,686 --> 00:00:50,604
He grew up a strange child in Cairo, Egypt.

10
00:00:50,605 --> 00:00:53,362
He had pale, unfriendly eyes.

11
00:00:53,363 --> 00:00:59,175
And his hair, which stuck out in every direction, was the color of rust.

12
00:00:59,176 --> 00:01:03,649
When people smiled at him, he never smiled back.

13
00:01:03,650 --> 00:01:08,157
And he never went outdoors and played games like most children do.

14
00:01:08,158 --> 00:01:14,973
No, he stayed in his room alone and read dusty, old books about magic.

15
00:01:14,974 --> 00:01:19,827
Magrib learned magic spells and how to see the future in the stars.

16
00:01:19,828 --> 00:01:23,956
He alsolearned how to make poisons!

17
00:01:23,957 --> 00:01:29,887
When Magrib was a little older, he visited the master magicians of Cairo.

18
00:01:29,888 --> 00:01:33,684
They taught him all their secrets and tricks.

19
00:01:33,685 --> 00:01:42,062
Soon young Magrib knew more than his teachers, but he studied magic for another forty years.

20
00:01:42,063 --> 00:01:48,504
He thought he knew everything, but then late one night, he made a great discovery.

21
00:01:48,505 --> 00:01:57,528
Magrib read a very old book about an enchanted treasury filled with gold and jewels—the riches of kings!

22
00:01:57,529 --> 00:02:05,735
But in that treasury was the most wonderful treasure of all—a plain brass lamp.

23
00:02:05,736 --> 00:02:10,463
Can you picture old Magrib in his gloomy library?

24
00:02:10,464 --> 00:02:16,938
Pacing back and forth among the stacks of books, he couldn't stop thinking about the lamp.

25
00:02:16,939 --> 00:02:20,973
Oh, how he wanted it!

26
00:02:20,974 --> 00:02:23,166
But there was a problem.

27
00:02:23,167 --> 00:02:28,575
Only one person in the world could enter the enchanted treasury.

28
00:02:28,576 --> 00:02:37,358
Only one person could find the lamp—a young boy named Aladdin, the son of a poor tailor.

29
00:02:37,359 --> 00:02:44,262
And this boy lived in the very same city where the enchanted treasury was hidden.

30
00:02:44,263 --> 00:02:48,662
"Why this boy?" Magrib wondered.

31
00:02:48,663 --> 00:02:54,051
The old book explained all the tricks and traps in the enchanted treasury.

32
00:02:54,052 --> 00:02:58,548
But it didn't say why only Aladdin could get the lamp.

33
00:02:58,549 --> 00:03:02,813
"I have to find that one boy!" said Magrib.

34
00:03:02,814 --> 00:03:07,325
"Then the lamp will be mine!"

35
00:03:07,326 --> 00:03:11,694
So Magrib sailed along the edge of a great sea.

36
00:03:11,695 --> 00:03:17,617
Then he joined a camel caravan and traveled into Aladdin's land.

37
00:03:17,618 --> 00:03:20,623
He began looking everywhere for the boy.

38
00:03:20,624 --> 00:03:25,994
And as you know, he finally found him.

39
00:03:25,995 --> 00:03:32,119
After many years and a long journey, the great moment was at hand.

40
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:38,568
So imagine how Magrib felt when Aladdin would not hand him the lamp!

41
00:03:38,569 --> 00:03:44,485
He was too greedy to wait any longer, and he became angry.

42
00:03:44,486 --> 00:03:51,426
He lost his temper and closed up the enchanted treasury, burying the boy.

43
00:03:51,427 --> 00:03:54,365
Did Magrib gain anything by his anger?

44
00:03:54,366 --> 00:03:56,111
He punished Aladdin.

45
00:03:56,112 --> 00:03:58,684
That is true.

46
00:03:58,685 --> 00:04:01,880
But Magrib still did not have the lamp.

47
00:04:01,881 --> 00:04:06,096
It was locked up tight, just like the boy.

48
00:04:06,097 --> 00:04:08,087
What did Magrib do next?

49
00:04:08,088 --> 00:04:12,583
He packed his bags and left Aladdin's city.

50
00:04:12,584 --> 00:04:18,163
He went back to Egypt and sat alone, thinking dark, unhappy thoughts.

51
00:04:18,164 --> 00:04:20,990
And what did Aladdin do next?

52
00:04:20,991 --> 00:04:29,016
Well, wait just a little while and you will know, my young friends.
