Douglas Seale: Sultan

Aladdin

Sultan

Genie: [sniffs tearfully] No matter what anybody says, you'll always be a prince to me.
Sultan: That's right! You've certainly proven your worth as far as I'm concerned. It's that law that's the problem.
Princess Jasmine: Father?
Sultan: Well, am I Sultan or am I Sultan? From this day forth, the Princess shall marry whomever she deems worthy.
Princess Jasmine: Him! I choose... I choose you, Aladdin.
Aladdin: [chuckles] Call me Al.

Princess Jasmine: Please, try to understand. I've never done a thing on my own. I've never had any real friends.
[Rajah grumbles in protest]
Princess Jasmine: Except you, Rajah.
[Rajah purrs happily]
Princess Jasmine: I've never even been outside the palace walls.
Sultan: But, Jasmine, you're a princess.
Princess Jasmine: Then maybe I don't wanna be a princess anymore.
Sultan: [exasperated] Oh! I, I...
Sultan: [to Rajah] Allah forbid you should have any daughters!
Rajah: Huh?

Princess Jasmine: [to Jafar] At least some good will come of my being forced to marry. When I am Queen, I will have the power to get rid of you.
Sultan: Well, now. That's nice. All settled then. Now, Jasmine, getting back to this suitor business. Jasmine? Jasmine!
[the Sultan notices that Jasmine is running out of the room, and runs after her]
Jafar: [scowls in their direction] If only I had gotten that lamp!
Iago: [mocking Jasmine] "I will have the power to get rid of you." Dahhh! To think we gotta keep kissing up to that chump, and his chump daughter, for the rest of our lives.
Jafar: No, Iago. Only until she finds a chump husband. Then she'll have us banished. Or beheaded.
Jafar, Iago: Ew.
Iago: Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute! Jafar, what if you were the chump husband?
Jafar: What?
Iago: Okay, okay. You marry the princess, all right? And and, uh, you. Then you become the sultan!
Jafar: Marry the shrew. I become sultan. The idea has merit.
Iago: Yes, merit. Yes! And then, we drop papa-in-law and the little woman off a cliff.
[he dives off Jafar's staff headfirst, then hits the ground]
Iago: "Yah. Ker-splat!"
Jafar: [laughs] I love the way your foul little mind works!
[both laugh evilly]

Sultan: Jasmine? Jasmine! Jasmine...
[suddenly Rajah rears up in front of the Sultan with a rag in his mouth]
Sultan: Confound it, Rajah!
[he pulls half of the rag out of Rajah's mouth]
Sultan: So! This is why Prince Achmed stormed out!
Princess Jasmine: Oh, Father. Rajah was just playing with him. Weren't you, Rajah? You were just playing with that overdressed, self-absorbed Prince Achmed, weren't you?
[Jasmine and Rajah chuckle, drawing an angry look from the Sultan]

Jafar: [hypnotizing the Sultan with his snake staff] You will order the Princess to marry me.
Sultan: [hypnotized] I... will order... the Princess... to...
[suddenly breaks out of the trance]
Sultan: But you're so old!
Jafar: [shoving his staff into the Sultan's face again] The Princess *will* marry me!

Sultan: [of "Prince Ali Ababwa"] Jasmine will like this one.
Aladdin: And I'm pretty sure I'll like Princess Jasmine.
Jafar: Your Highness, no! I must intercede on Jasmine's behalf. This boy is no different from the others. What makes him think he is worthy of the Princess?
Aladdin: Your Majesty, I am Prince Ali Ababwa. Just let her meet me. I will win your daughter.
Princess Jasmine: How dare you? All of you! Standing around deciding my future? I am not a prize to be won!

Sultan: It's this suitor business. Jasmine refuses to choose a husband. I'm at my wits' end.
Iago: Awk! Wits' end!
Sultan: Oh.
[laughs and pulls out a cracker]
Sultan: Have a cracker, pretty Polly.
[Iago gasps and shakes his head. Sultan stuffs the cracker into Iago's mouth]
Jafar: [laughs as Iago chokes] Your Majesty certainly has a way with dumb animals.
[Iago gives Jafar an angry look]

Jafar: [about Aladdin in his Prince Ali disguise] I don't trust him, Sire.
Sultan: Nonsense. One thing I pride myself on, Jafar, is that I'm an excellent judge of character.
Iago: Oh, excellent judge. Yeah, sure. NOT!

[Prince Achmed comes storming in from the palace gardens after being rejected by Princess Jasmine]
Prince Achmed: I've never been so insulted!
Sultan: Oh, Prince Achmed, you're, you're not... leaving so soon, are you?
Prince Achmed: [walks away, pants at the butt area are ripped off, revealing spotted underwear] Good luck marrying *her* off!

Sultan: Can this be true? My daughter has finally chosen a suitor? Praise Allah.
[to Aladdin, in his Prince Ali guise]
Sultan: You brilliant boy. I could kiss you. I won't. I'll leave that to my...

Sultan: Jafar, this is an outrage! If it weren't for all your years of loyal service...! But from now on, you're to discuss sentencing of prisoners with me, *before* they are beheaded!
Jafar: I assure you, Your Highness, it won't happen again.
