Editing Ash's Adventures of Aladdin/Transcript (section)

== Encountering Old Man Jafar/Discovering the lamp ==
*'''Aladdin''': (struggling with shackles) She was the princess. I can't believe it. I must've sounded so stupid to her.
*Ash Ketchum: Don't blame yourself, Aladdin! We didn't know Jasmine is a princess too.
*Brock: Yeah, how were we supposed to know about her royal status? She could've just told us.
*Abu: Yahoo! Aladdin, hello!
*Misty: Hey, it's Abu!
*Aladdin: Abu! Down here!
*Pikachu: (arrives with Abu) Pika, Pi?
*Ash Ketchum: Pikachu! Come on down here!
(Abu and Pikachu climb down to meet up with everyone.)
*Pikachu: (affectionately) Pika, Pi!
*Ash Ketchum: Boy, are we glad to see you and Abu, Pikachu!
*Pikachu: Pika, Pika! (uses Iron Tail to free Ash and his friends from their chains)
*Misty: Ah, much better!
*Brock: Thanks, Pikachu!
*Aladdin: (chuckles) Hey, Abu, come on, help me outta these.
*Abu: (chatters angrily, imitates Jasmine and screeches in anger)
*Pikachu: (in agreement with Abu; angrily) Pika, Pikachu!
*Aladdin: Hey, she was in trouble. Ah, she was worth it.
*Abu: (climbs above Aladdin to free him) Yeah, yeah, yeah.
*Aladdin: Don't worry, Abu, I'll never see her again.
*Ash Ketchum: What do you mean you'll never see her again!?
*Aladdin: Because I'm a street rat, remember? And there's a law. She's gotta marry a prince. (Abu unlocks the shackles that held Aladdin's hands above him) She deserves a prince.
*Abu: Ta-da!
*Misty: Well, for a princess like her, I can definitely see why she ran away from the palace. And it's because of that law. I mean can you blame her for being forced into an arranged marriage? I certainly can't.
*Brock: Yeah, who would pass a law like that? I wouldn't want to force myself into marrying someone I don't love. That's not how it works.
*Ash Ketchum: Exactly. I mean did you guys see her face when she told us what she's going through with her father's law? She seemed pretty upset about it. It's just not fair.

Aladdin: (sighs) I'm a fool.

Jafar: (as an old man) You're only a fool, if you give up, boy.

Aladdin: Who are you?

Jafar: A lowly prisoner like yourself. But together perhaps, we can be more.

Aladdin: We're listening.

Jafar: There is a cave, children. A Cave of Wonders. Filled with treasures beyond your wildest dreams. (holds up some rubies)

Abu: Oohh!!

Jafar: Treasure enough to impress even your princess, I'd wager.

Iago: (from under the cloak) Jafar, can ya hurry up? I'm dyin' in here. (gets elbowed) Awk!

Ash Ketchum: But the law says that only a prince can marry the…

Jafar: You've heard of the golden rule, haven't you? Whoever has the gold makes the rules. (laughs wheezingly)

Aladdin: So, why would you share all this wonderful treasure with us?

Jafar: I need some young pair of legs and some strong backs to go in after it.

Misty: Uh, there's only one problem. It's out there and we're locked up in here.

Brock: So, it's kinda pointless.

Jafar: Mm-mm-mmm. Things aren't always what they seem. (shows a secret door)

Ash and his friends: Whoa...

Pikachu: Pikachu...

Jafar: So… do we have a deal?

Abu: (shrugs) Oh, I don't know.

Ash Ketchum: (whispers) Can we trust him?

Misty: (whispers) Do we have a choice?

(The scene changes to the desert where Aladdin leads the horse with Jafar and Abu on it while Ash, Brock, Misty and Pikachu walk with them.)

Cave of Wonders: Who disturbs my slumber?

Aladdin: Uh, it is I Aladdin.

Ash Ketchum: And it was also me Ash Ketchum.

Pikachu: Pika.

Brock: We're friends of Aladdin.

Misty: That's right.

Cave of Wonders: Proceed. Touch nothing but the lamp.

Jafar: Now, remember, children, first fetch me the lamp and then you shall have your reward.

Aladdin: Come on, everyone.

*Aladdin, Ash, and friends: Abu! (Abu stops from grabbing the jewels)
*Ash Ketchum: Don't you remember what the cave said, Abu!? "Touch nothing, but the lamp!".
*Pikachu: (cross and reminding Abu) Pikachu!
*Abu: (chuckles while feeling embarrassed) Sorry.
*Misty: Just stay focused, okay, Abu? We gotta find that lamp.
*(Abu walks away then a magic carpet rises off the ground and it follows him.)
*Abu: Huh? (looks to see the carpet lie on the ground)
*Pikachu: Pika? (looks to see the carpet rolled up and leaning against the pile of treasure)
*Abu: Aladdin!
*Pikachu: Pika, Pika!
*(Abu and Pikachu run up to Aladdin, Ash and his friends.)
*Aladdin: Abu, will you knock it off!
*Ash Ketchum: Not now, Pikachu.
*Brock: What's with Abu and Pikachu?
*Misty: I don't know.
*Aladdin: They're probably just seeing things.
*(Abu and Pikachu groan in frustration as they both follow them. The carpet jumps in front of them it playfully tugs Pikachu's tail.)
*Pikachu: (startled) Pika!
*(Then the carpet playfully takes off Abu's hat and puts it on itself then waves it's tassle to them.)

* Abu: (screeches in fright)
* Pikachu: PIKA!!! (runs up to Ash)
* Abu: ALADDIN!! (runs up to Aladdin and jumps onto him)
* Pikachu: Pika, Pi!
* Ash Ketchum: (jumps onto Ash) Hey, Pikachu!
* Aladdin: Abu! Ow. What are you crazy?! (Abu lifts his head and points to the magic carpet that spooked him) A magic carpet!
* Ash Ketchum: (chuckles) What? Is that what you were so scared of? A magic carpet?
* Misty: It doesn't look that scary to me.
* Brock: Yeah, it looks pretty harmless.
* Aladdin: Come on, come on out. We're not gonna hurt you.
* (The carpet comes out and dusts Abu's hat then hands it to Abu but he's still scared of it.)
* Ash Ketchum: Hey, relax, Abu, it won't hurt you.
* Aladdin: Yeah, he's not gonna bite. (takes Abu's hat) Thanks.
* (Abu angrily takes his hat and screeches at the carpet which made it sad then it's about to leave.)
* Misty: Hey, please don't leave.
* Brock: Yeah, can you please help us?
* (The carpet feels happy when it's offered to help. It flies around Aladdin.)
* Aladdin: (amused) Whoa!
* (The it flies around Ash and his friends which caused them to laugh in amusement.)
* Ash Ketchum: You see, we're looking for a lamp.
* (The carpet gestures the group to follow it.)
* Misty: What's it saying?
* Aladdin: I think he knows where it is.
* Brock: Then what are we waiting for? Let's go.
* Pikachu: Pika.

(Aladdin, Abu, Ash and his friends follow the carpet. They pass through a long cave until they emerge in a giant underground cave. The centre of the room is a tall pillar, with a staircase.)

Aladdin: Wait here.

Ash and his friends: Okay.

(Abu is disappointed that he is told to wait. But he becomes surprised when he sees a shrine with a golden monkey. The outstretched paws hold a giant ruby. Abu is hypnotically drawn to it. Aladdin climbs the stairs quickly.

Pikachu: (see Abu going for the ruby) Pika?!

(Pikachu and the carpet grab his tail trying in vain to hold him back. Aladdin finally reaches the magic lamp.)

Aladdin: This is it? This is what we came all the way down here to-? (looks down and sees Abu break free of Pikachu and the carpet's hold and lunge toward the jewel)

Pikachu: Pika, Pi!!!

Ash Ketchum: (sees what's going on) What the?!

Misty and Brock: Huh?!

Aladdin: (to Abu) '''ABU, NO!!!'''

Ash and his friends: (to Abu) '''DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING, YOU TWIT!'''

(But Abu ignores everyone and grabs the jewel from the monkey shrine.)

Cave of Wonders: (furiously, V.O.) Infidels!

Abu: Uh-oh.

Cave of Wonders: (V.O.) You have touched the forbidden treasure! (Abu sheepishly puts it back but suddenly the ruby and monkey statue start to melt away) Now you will never again see the light of day!

Aladdin: (quickly puts the lamp into his vest and descends down the stairs) Whoa!

(Ash and his friends panic as the cave begins the crumble and unleash its fury. Abu races to the rock bridge to find safety.)

Misty: Abu, get back here!

(Aladdin races down the steps, but they flatten into a ramp, and he skies down until he flies into the air. The water has turned into lava. He is falling toward it, when all of a sudden, the carpet appears and catches him on time.)

Ash and his friends: (relieved) Phew!

(Abu is standing on one of the rocks of the bridge. He looks left and right and sees rocks exploding into lava. Then the carpet races over towards Abu as the rock bridge explode faster.)

Abu: Help! Help! Help! (babbles and screeches)

(Two more rocks explode and Aladdin grabs Abu on time, just as the last rock is exploding.)

Aladdin: Gotcha!

Ash and his friends: (relieved) Phew!

Brock: Uh,... guys, problem... (points to the lava as it forms a giant wave)

Ash and Misty: (scream in panic)

Aladdin: Whoa! Carpet, let's move!

Ash Ketchum: (quickly summons Dragonite) Get us outta here, Dragonite!

Dragonite: Gon!! (flies around and immediately picks up her trainer and his friends)

(With Aladdin and Abu on the magic carpet and Ash and his friends mounted on Dragonite's back, they all race back through the caves dodging walls and falling debris as fast as they can.)

Ash Ketchum: Get down!

(Everyone avoids the incoming falling rocks. Abu clings onto Aladdin's head in fear.)

Aladdin: Abu! Abu, this is no time to panic! (pulls Abu off)

Brock: Um, Aladdin,...

Misty: Look up ahead!

Aladdin: Huh? (gasps) Okay, start panicking!

Ash Ketchum: Look out below! (screams)

(Everyone screams as Dragonite and the carpet flies them downward, through a hallway and back into the room full of treasures. The torrent of lava crashes into the room and begins melting the treasures.)

Abu: (pants frantically)

Misty: I'm gonna be sick. I'm gonna be sick.

(Dragonite dodges the incoming lava blasts.)

Ash and his friends: Whoa!!!

Pikachu: Pika!!!

(Aladdin flies the carpet to avoid the lava blasts as well. The lava forms large hands, and they try to grab them and incinerate them. But everyone avoids on time. Outside, thunder and lightning roars and the cave's tiger head roars in agonizing anger as it is on the brink of closing. The staircase crumbles as everyone fly up to the entrance. Dragonite manages to get Ash and his friends safely out of the cave, but they end up crashing into the sand dunes. But for Aladdin and Abu, however, a large boulder lands onto the carpet sending it falling below the cave. Abu climbs out, but Aladdin grabs onto the edge of the rock wall. Outside, Ash and his friends pop out of the sand, coughing and recover from the rough landing after escaping the cave.)

Pikachu: (pops out and shakes the sand out of his fur) Pika...

Dragonite: (pops out and shakes the sand off her scales)

Ash Ketchum: (coughs) Is everyone alright?

Misty: I am. (coughs)

Brock: (coughs) I'm okay.

Ash Ketchum: Okay, good. Wha-wait a minute. Where's Aladdin?

Pikachu: (twitches his ears) Pi? (senses something in the cave) Pika, Pika! (points to the cave)

Misty: (gasps) Oh, no! He's still down there!

(They immediately get up and rush to the entrance of the crumbling cave where they see Aladdin holding on for his very life.)

Aladdin: (grunts) Help me! (grunts) Help me out!

Jafar: Throw me the lamp!

Aladdin: I-I can't hold on! (to Jafar) Give me your hand!

Ash Ketchum: (holds his hand out) Aladdin, here! (grunts) Reach for my hand!

Misty: Hurry! (grunts as she holds onto Ash's backpack)

Brock: We'll get you out of there! (grunts as he holds onto Misty's bag)

Pikachu: Pikachu... (struggles to hold onto Brock's foot)

Jafar: But first, let him give me the lamp!

(Aladdin takes out the lamp and reluctantly gives it to the disguised Jafar.)

Jafar: (cackles) '''YES!!!''' '''AT LAST!!!''' Ha, ha, ha, ha! (puts the lamp in his pocket)

Misty: Hey, you crazy old coot! Cut the chatter and help us save our friend!

Ash Ketchum: (grunts as he struggles to pull Aladdin out)

Jafar: (whispers) You've got such a big mouth, young lady. Allow me to teach you a lesson in manners. (kicks away Ash and his friends and grabs Aladdin)

Aladdin: What are you doing?!

Jafar: Giving you your reward! (normal voice) Your eternal reward! (gets bitten by Abu) Yeow!!! (lets go of Aladdin, causing him to fall back into the crumbling cave while also throwing Abu in as well)

(Aladdin and Abu fall deeper into the cave, much to Ash and his friends dismay and horror.)

Ash and his friends: Aladdin! 

Pikachu: Pikachu!

(Jafar sadistically pushes Ash and his friends back into the crumbling cave, hoping that they will share Aladdin's fate of being trapped inside it forever. However, as he is in his glory, Dragonite, taking an immediate disliking towards Jafar, whacks him away with her tail and flies down after Ash and his friends. Down below, the magic carpet frees itself from the boulder and catches Aladdin and Abu while Dragonite speeds herself up and catches Ash and his friends on time. But it was too late. The cave's tiger head roars one last time, crumbles, and collapses into the sand before anyone can escape.)

Jafar: (chuckles) It's mine. (rips off his old man disguise) It's all mine. (digs into his cloak to get the lamp) I- (pauses) Where is it? (looks around) No! (falls to his knees as he realizes the lamp is gone) '''NO!!!'''
