ALADDIN: (From a distance) Princess Jasmine?
(RAJAH looks up and growls.)
JASMINE: Who's there?
ALADDIN: It's me--Prince Ali. Ahem--(Then he jumps to his
deep voice) Prince Ali Ababwa.
JASMINE: I do not want to see you.
ALADDIN: No, no, please princess. Give me a chance. (RAJAH
growls and advances on him.)
JAFAR: Just leave me alone.
ALADDIN: Down kitty!
(Over the edge of the balcony, CARPET is watching with GENIE below.)
GENIE: How's our beau doing?
(CARPET cuts his neck with his finger.)
ALADDIN: Good kitty, take off. Down kitty. (He takes off
his turban to brush RAJAH away.)
JASMINE: (She looks at him thinking she has seen him
before.) Wait, wait. Do I know you?
ALADDIN: (Quickly replaces his turban) Uh, no, no.
JASMINE: You remind me of someone I met in the marketplace.
ALADDIN: The marketplace? (A bee buzzes around his head.)
I have servants that go to the marketplace for me.
Why I even have servants who go to the marketplace
for my servants, so it couldn't have been me you
met.
JASMINE: (She looks disappointed.) No, I guess not.
BEE: (It's the GENIE) Enough about you, Casanova. Talk
about her! She's smart, fun, the hair, the eyes.
Anything--pick a feature!
ALADDIN: Um, Princess Jasmine? You're very...
BEE: Wonderful, magnificent, glorious, and punctual!
ALADDIN: Punctual!
JASMINE: Punctual?
BEE: Sorry.
ALADDIN: Beautiful.
BEE: Nice recovery.
JASMINE: Hmm. I'm rich too, you know.
ALADDIN: Yeah!
JASMINE: The daughter of a sultan
ALADDIN: I know.
JASMINE: A fine prize for any prince to marry.
ALADDIN: Uh, right. Right. A prince like me.
BEE: (Buzzing in his ear) Warning! Warning!
JASMINE: Right, a prince like you. And every other stuffed shirt,
swaggering, peacock I've met!
BEE: (Rear end on fire, wearing goggles and crashing) Mayday!
Mayday!
JASMINE: Just go jump off a balcony! (She turns and walks away)
ALADDIN: What?
BEE: Stop her! Stop her! Do you want me to sting her?
ALADDIN: (Swats at bee) Buzz off!
BEE: Okay, fine. But remember--bee yourself! (BEE buzzes into
his turban)
ALADDIN: Yeah, right!
JASMINE: What!?!
ALADDIN: Uh, you're right. You aren't just some prize to be
won. (He looks disappointed.) You should be free
to make your own choice. (JASMINE and RAJAH look
at each other in confusion.) (He
steps up on the ledge and drops off.)
JASMINE: No!
ALADDIN: (Pokes his head up from over the edge) What? What?
JASMINE: (Now she's amazed) How--how are you doing that?
(She looks over the edge and sees the CARPET.)
ALADDIN: It's a magic carpet.
JASMINE: It's lovely. (CARPET takes JASMINE's hand with a
tassel.)
ALADDIN: You, uh, you don't want to go for a ride, do you?
We could get out of the palace, see the world.
JASMINE: Is it safe?
ALADDIN: Sure. Do you trust me?
JASMINE: (She looks at him at the saying of that all-
important line) What?
ALADDIN: (Extends his hand the same as before) Do you trust
me?
JASMINE: (Gets a sly grin on her face) Yes.
