Lionwings Adventures in Aladdin part 1

PEDDLER: Oh I come from a land From a faraway place Where the caravan camels roam Where they cut off your ear /Where it's flat and immense If they don't like your face /And the heat is intense It's barbaric, but hey--it's home! When the wind's at your back And the sun's from the west And the sand in the glass is right Come on down, Stop on by Hop a carpet and fly To another Arabian night! Arabian nights Like Arabian days More often than not Are hotter than hot In a lot of good ways Arabian nights 'Neath Arabian moons A fool off his guard Could fall and fall hard Out there on the dunes. Ah, Salaam and good evening to you worthy friend. Please, please, come closer--(Camera zooms in hitting peddler in face) Too close, a little too close. (Camera zooms back out to CU)There.Welcome to Agrabah. City of mystery, of enchantment, and the finest merchandise this side of the river Jordan, on sale today, come on down! Heh, heh. Look at this! Yes! Combination hookah and coffee maker--also makes Julienne fries. Will not break (taps it on table), will not--(it falls apart)--it broke. Ooohhh! Look at this! Pulls out Tupperware) I have never seen one of these intact before. This is the famous Dead Sea Tupperware. Listen. (Pries it open, makes raspberry sound.) Ah, still good. (Camera begins to pan to right. PEDDLER hurries to catch it.) Wait, don't go! (Stop pan.)I can see that you're only interested in the exceptionally rare. I think then, you would be most rewarded to consider...this. (PEDDLER pulls the MAGIC LAMP out from his sleeve.) Do not be fooled by its commonplace appearance. Like so many things, it is not what is outside, but what is inside that counts. (Another pan, this one slower to left. Again, PEDDLER rushes to catch up.) This is no ordinary lamp! It once changed the course of a young man's life. A young man who liked this lamp was more than what he seemed. A diamond in the rough. Perhaps you would like to hear the tale? (PEDDLER pours shiny sand from the lamp into his hand.) It begins on a dark night (PEDDLER throws sand into the sky, where it forms a starry nightscape.) , where a dark man waits, with a dark purpose. (Camera tilts down to find JAFAR sitting on his horse and IAGO on his shoulder. GAZEEM comes riding up to the pair.)
JAFAR: You...are late.
Heath: You kept us waiting when Jafar tells you to meet him at a certain time he means it
GAZEEM:A thousand apologies, O patient one.
JAFAR: You have it, then?
Heath: Well Gazeem
GAZEEM:I had to selit a few throats to get it. (Pulls out half of the medallion. JAFAR reaches out for it, but GAZEEM yanks it back.) Ah, ah, ahhh! The treasure! (IAGO squawks as he flies by and grabs the medallion.) Ouch!
JAFAR: Trust me, my pungent friend. You'll get what's coming to you.
IAGO: What's coming to you! Awk! (JAFAR pulls out the second half of the medallion. He connects them, and the insect medallion begins to glow. Finally, it flies out of JAFAR's hand, scaring the horses, and is off towards the dunes.)
JAFAR: Quickly, follow the trail! (All ride off, following the glowing speck of light, until it reaches a large dune. It separates into two and the halves plunge into the dune. All that remains are two glowing points of light on the dune. But then the dune begins to rise up, transforming into a giant lion's head, with the glowing points serving as the eyes.) JAFAR: At last, after all my years of searching, the cave of wonders!
Heath: Ah cha cha
IAGO: Awk! Cave of wonders!
GAZEEM: By Allah!
JAFAR: Now, remember! Bring me the lamp. The rest of the treasure is yours, but the lamp is mine! (GAZEEM starts to approach the lion's mouth, which forms the entrance to the cave. He chuckles as he goes.)
IAGO: Awk, the lamp! Awk, the lamp! (Now that IAGO and JAFAR are alone, IAGO opens up in normal English.) Jeez, where'd ya dig this bozo up? (JAFAR puts his finger to his lips and shushes him. GAZEEM reaches the cave, but is blown away by the roar of the cave's speaking.)
CAVE: Who disturbs my slumber?
GAZEEM: It is I, Gazeem, a humble thief.
CAVE: Know this. Only one may enter here. One whose worth lies far within. A diamond in the rough. (GAZEEM turns to JAFAR with a questioning look.)
JAFAR: What are you waiting for? Go on! (GAZEEM hesitates, then moves one foot inside the cave. With great apprehension, he plants his foot down. Nothing happens. Relieved, he begins his trek again. Then another roar comes. He turns back, but the lion's mouth slams shut and the dune collapses back to normal. All that are left are JAFAR, IAGO, and the two separated halves of the medallion.)
CAVE: Seek thee out, the diamond in the rough. (IAGO unburied himself from the sand, coughing as he does so.)
Heath: Great back to square one
IAGO: I can't believe it. I just don't believe it. We're never gonna get a hold of that stupid lamp! Just forget it. Look at this. Look at this. I'm so ticked off that I'm molting! (He flies up to JAFAR's shoulder.)
JAFAR: Patience, Iago. Patience. Gazeem was obviously less than worthy.
IAGO: (Extremely sarcastically) Oh, there's a big surprise. That's an incred--I think I'm gonna have a heart attack and die from not surprise! What're we gonna do? We got a big problem here,a big prob- (JAFAR pinches his beak shut.)
Heath: Lago do me a favor and shut up
JAFAR: Yes, we do. Only one may enter. I must find this one, this...diamond in the rough.
*The Lionwing adventure team teleported into Agrabah*
Atticus: Talon where are we know
Talon: According to my timeband we are in Agrabah
Thundara: Man I'm starving
All: Good grief
(Cut to a rooftop, where ALADDIN rushes up to the edge, carrying a loaf of bread. He almost drops it over the edge.)
GUARD: Stop, thief! I'll have your hands for a trophy, street rat!
ALADDIN: (Looks back, then down, then at the bread.) All this for a loaf of bread? (He jumps off, landing on two ropes strung between buildings, with drying clothes on them. He skies down them, collecting bits and pieces of clothing on him as he goes. Finally, he's nearing the end of the rope, at a window, when a woman reaches out and slams the shutters closed. ALADDIN slams into the shutters and falls to the street, his fall being broken by numerous awnings and the pile of clothes around him. He pulls off the top layer of clothes and is about to enjoy his bread when...)
Shade: oh that's got to hurt
Shredder: Shoot come on
GUARD 1: There he is!
GUARD 2: You won't get away so easy!
ALADDIN: You think that was easy? (He looks at three women, laughing at him.) GUARD 1: You two, over that way, and you, with me. We'll find him. (ALADDIN pulls a sheet over him and wraps himself as a disguise. He rushes over to the women.) ALADDIN: Morning, ladies.
WOMAN 1: Getting into trouble a little early today, aren't we Aladdin?
ALADDIN: Trouble? No way. You're only in trouble if you get caught-- (A hand grabs ALADDIN's shoulder and yanks him back. It's the first GUARD. ALADDIN's disguise falls off.) ALADDIN: I'm in trouble!
GUARD: ...and this time--(A screeching sound from ABU, then the guard's turban is pulled down over his eyes. ABU dances on the GUARD's head, laughing.)
ALADDIN: Perfect timing, Abu!
ABU: Hello!
ALADDIN: Come on, let's get outta here! Gotta keep...one jump ahead of the breadline One swing ahead of the sword I steal only what I can't afford That's everything! (ALADDIN battles a GUARD wielding a sword. He dodges a couple of swings, then pulls down the GUARD's pants. ABU raspberries the GUARD, then dodges an attack. The GUARD swings at ALADDIN, but destroys a barrel of fish. As ALADDIN runs off, the GUARD pulls a fish over his lower body as a pair of pants.) One jump ahead of the lawmen That's all, and that's no joke These guys don't appreciate I'm broke! (ALADDIN and ABU scamper up a pile of barrels, then kick one down on top of another GUARD.) GUARDS: (one at a time) Riffraff! Street rat! Scoundrel! Take that!
ALADDIN: Just a little snack, guys! (ALADDIN scampers to the top of a platform. The GUARDS shake the platform back and fro trying to knock him off.)
GUARDS: Rip him open, take it back guys!
ALADDIN: I can take a hint, gotta face the facts You're my only friend, Abu!
WOMEN: Who?!? (ALADDIN jumps off the platform to certain death, only to grab ABU's hands like an acrobat. The pair swing into a harem.) Oh, it's sad Aladdin's hit the bottom He's become a one-man rise in crime (ABU finds a plate full of fruit and stuffs his mouth full like a chipmunk.)
WOMAN: I'd blame parents, except he hasn't got 'em!
ALADDIN: Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat Tell you all about it when I got the time! (ALADDIN and ABU exit. Cut to MUSCLEMAN flexing to a crowd. The GUARDS rush past. Cut to ALADDIN and ABU behind the MUSCLEMAN, matching his moves, until they make a mistake and are discovered.) One jump ahead of the slowpokes One skip ahead of my doom Next time gonna use a nom de plume. One jump ahead of the hitmen One hit ahead of the flock I think I'll take a stroll around the block. (A chase sequence, in which ALADDIN and ABU, pursued by the GUARDS, race through a flock of sheep, hurdle a MAN sleeping on a bed of nails {of course one extremely large GUARD lands on him}. ABU disguises himself with jewels until a SHOPKEEPER discovers him.
CROWD: Stop, thief! Vandal! Outrage! Scandal!
ALADDIN: Let's not be too hasty (ALADDIN is surrounded by GUARDS in front of a door. The door opens and a large, ugly LADY comes out.)
LADY: Still I think he's rather tasty (ALADDIN tumbles away, then puts his arm around a GUARD, acting like they're all chums.)
ALADDIN: Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat Otherwise we'd get along!
GUARDS: WRONG! (They all jump into a pile and fight. When they stop, ALADDIN and ABU are gone. They are sneaking away in barrels. They run across a flaming pit, followed by GUARDS who hop up and down, screaming in pain as they cross the rocks. ALADDIN and ABU pass a SWORD SWALLOWER, then ABU goes back, pulls the sword out of the SWALLOWER's mouth. ABU advances on the guards, who retreat in fear.)
GUARD 1: He's got a sword!
GUARD 2: You idiot--we've ALL got swords!! (ABU sets the sword down gently, then runs. ALADDIN and ABU are once again surrounded, with GUARDS coming from left and right. He jumps up and climbs a robe trick being done on the street, as the GUARDS all crash into each other.)
ALADDIN: One jump ahead of the hoofbeats!
CROWD: Vandal!
ALADDIN: One hop ahead of the hump!
CROWD: Street rat!
ALADDIN: One trick ahead of disaster
CROWD: Scoundrel!
ALADDIN: They're quick--but I'm much faster
CROWD: Take that! (The GUARDS chase ALADDIN up a staircase into a room. He grabs a carpet and jumps out the window)
ALADDIN: Here goes, better throw my hand in Wish me happy landin' All I gotta do is jump! (The GUARDS follow him out the window, but they go straight down to the street, and land in a pile with the sign "Crazy Hakim's Discount Fertilizer." ALADDIN uses the carpet as a parachute to land safely and out of danger. ALADDIN and ABU high-five each other.)
Talon: Excuse me are you hurt young man
Aladdin: No I'm not name is Aladdin who are you guys
Talon: Oh during the chase I forgot to introduce us *clears throat* name is Talon this is my wife Article our friends Atticus, Thundara, Shade, Shredder, Hunter, and Psy
ALADDIN: And now, esteemed effendi, we feast! All right! (ALADDIN breaks the bread in two and gives half to ABU, who begins to eat. But ALADDIN looks over and sees two young children rummaging through the garbage for food. The GIRL sees him, then drops her find and tries to hide. ALADDIN looks at them, then the bread, then at ABU.)
Psy: Go on Abu
ABU: Uh-oh! (ABU takes a big bite of his food, but ALADDIN gets up and walks over to the children. The GIRL pulls her brother back.)
ALADDIN: Here, go on--take it. (The children giggle with delight. ABU tries to swallow his bite, then looks guilty. He walks over to the children and offers his bread to them. In delight, they pet him on the head.)
ABU: Ah, don't. Huh? (ABU sees ALADDIN walking into the daylight, where there is a parade going on.ALADDIN peers over the shoulders of people. He sees PRINCE ACHMED riding on a horse.)
BYSTANDER 1: On his way to the palace, I suppose.
BYSTANDER 2: Another suitor for the princess. (ALADDIN is startled as the two children come running out from the alley. The BOY runs out in front of the PRINCE's horse, startling it.)
PRINCE: Out of my way, you filthy brat! (The PRINCE brings up his whip to attack the children, but ALADDIN jumps in front of them and catches the whip.)
ALADDIN: Hey, if I were as rich as you, I could afford some manners
Thundara: Did your mother not teach you any manners  
PRINCE: Oh--I teach you some manners! (The PRINCE kicks ALADDIN into a mud puddle. The crowd laugh at him.)
ALADDIN: Look at that, Abu. It's not every day you see a horse with two rear ends! (The PRINCE stops and turns back to ALADDIN.)
Talon: I'm not to sure which rear ends belong to the prince or the horse
PRINCE: You are a worthless street rat. You were born a street rat, you'll die a street rat, and only your fleas will mourn you. (ALADDIN rushes the PRINCE, but the doors to the castle slam shut in his face.)
ALADDIN: I'm not worthless. And I don't have fleas. Come on, Abu. Let's go home. (ALADDIN makes the climb to his home with the view, then tucks in ABU for the night.) ALADDIN: Riffraff, street rat. I don't buy that. If only they'd look closer Would they see a poor boy? No siree. They'd find out, there's so much more to me. (He pulls back a curtain to reveal the beautiful palace.) Someday, Abu, things are gonna change. We'll be rich, live in a palace, and never have any problems at all
Talon: Lets get some sleep guys
