SCENE 7

Aladdin: Almost there.

Jasmine: I want to thank you for stopping that man.

Aladdin: Uh, forget it. So, this is your first time in the marketplace, huh?

Jasmine: Is it that obvious?

Aladdin: Well, you do kind of stand out. I mean, uh, you don't seem to know how dangerous Agrabah can be.

Jasmine: Hmm. I'm a fast learner.

Abu: Wow.

Aladdin: [chuckling] Hey. Come on. This way. Whoa. Watch your head there. Be careful.

Jasmine: Is this where you live?

Aladdin: Yep. Just me and Abu. Come and go as we please.

Jasmine: That sounds fabulous.

Aladdin: Well, it's not much, but it's got a great view. Wow. The palace looks pretty amazing, huh?

Jasmine: Oh, it's wonderful.

Aladdin: I wonder what it would be like to live here, and have servants and valets.

Jasmine: Oh, sure. People who tell you where to go and how to dress.

Aladdin: It's better than here. You're always scraping for food and ducking the guards.

Jasmine: You're not free to make your own choices.

Aladdin: Sometimes you feel so...

Jasmine: You're just...

Both: ...trapped.

Aladdin: [clears throat] So, where are you from?

Jasmine: What does it matter? I ran away and I am not going back.

Aladdin: Really? How come?

Abu: Why, you...

Jasmine: My father's forcing me to get married.

Aladdin: That's... that's awful. Abu!

[angry squeaking]

Jasmine: What?

Aladdin: Abu says, uh... that's not fair.

Abu: What?

Jasmine: Oh, did he?

Aladdin: Yeah, of course.

Jasmine: And does Abu have anything else to say?

Aladdin: Well, uh, he wishes there was something he could do to help.

Abu: Oh, boy.

Jasmine: Hmm. Tell him that's very sweet.

Razoul: Here you are.

Both: They're after me! You?

Jasmine: My father must have sent them...

Aladdin: Do you trust me?

Jasmine: What?

Aladdin: Do you trust me?

Jasmine: Yes...

Aladdin: Then jump!

Razoul: We just keep running to each other, don't we, street rat?

Aladdin: Run! Go! Get out of here!

Razoul: Get this thing off of me! It's the dungeon for you, boy.

Aladdin: Get off me.

Jasmine: Let him go.

Razoul: Lookie here, men. A street mouse!

[guards laugh]

Jasmine: Unhand him, by order of the princess.

Razoul: Princess Jasmine.

Aladdin: The princess?

Abu: Princess?

Razoul: What are you doing outside the palace? And with this street rat.

Jasmine: That's not your concern. Do as I command. Release him.

Razoul: I would, Princess, except my orders come from Jafar. You'll have to take it up with him.

Jasmine: Believe me, I will.
