Its bright and hot outside. Aladdin walks on stage and says a few lines. Jasmine walks on stage, excited and in disguised. She tells the crowd how happy she is to be free from the palace walls and how angry her father will be if he finds out. She stops at a bread stall. Aladdin is also at the bread stall haggling over a price with the merchant. The poor man is hungry and asks Jasmine for some food. Aladdin notices Jasmines beauty.

The market was his first time to be a human but he changed back into a genie too fast, He is very eager to be a human again. He tells of his pain being in a lamp for all eternity and wishes to be free but humans are selfish and never use a wish on him. The Genie tells this in a funny way. He says sadly that he is a magic Genie and will grant Aladdin 3 wishes. He sings the song You Aint Never had a Friend Like Me. He says Please, please, please use 1 wish on me! Aladdins first wish is to become and Prince so he could marry someone as beautiful as Jasmine. Aladdin becomes a Prince. Now I need to find her! he says to the Genie.

He is only poor, he has a very warm heart. They say theyve only seen a Prince lately. Jasmine plays with boys with a monkey (Abu). Aladdin finds Jasmine and sweeps down grandly, acting like a royal Prince. He says, Jasmine I am a handsome prince I wish you marry you. Jasmine takes a good look at him as if she recognizes him and refuses. Status doesnt matter. She doesnt recognize Aladdin as the Prince. As she walks away from Aladdin she says I wish I could find that handsome street boy. Aladdin is left standing there. He says to the Genie who reappears that Jasmine is a noble person and he wants his next wish to be to change him back into his normal self, to leave all his riches behind. The Genie asks him if he is sure about this. Love struck, Aladdin answers yes. The Genie changes Aladdin back to a poor man. The Genie reminds Aladdin that he only has 1 wish left.

(Chorus echoes their words) Jasmine and the Nanny: Jasmine is touched by the Aladdins words but the Nanny says, Look at the Genie, Aladdin shouldnt be so selfish. Genie and Aladdin: Aladdin finally decides to give up the wish. He says Genie, my final wish is to make you free. The Genie takes off his bracelets and is very happy. On the other hand, Aladdin looks very sad. He looks up at the sky and says Im so sorry Jasmine, just remember I love you so much and I will forever. When Jasmine hears this she runs downstairs and orders the guards to open the gate. They rush to each other. Jasmine asks him to marry her. The Nanny is crying.
