Plot: Long ago, the Sultan Schariar has gone mad after his traumatizing near assassination in which his wife collaborated and died at his hands as a result. Now he has a paranoid suspicion of women which he plans to express in a diabolical plan, and that is to marry a woman from the harem and then have her executed the very next morning. To prevent this, the Grand Vizier's daughter and a childhood friend of the Sultan, Scheherezade, offers herself to be that bride. Now, she must gamble that her plan will work as she tries to cure his madness by telling him story after wondrous story which include the tales of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves and Aladdin and his Wonderful Lamp. All the while, the Sultan's villainous brother is making plans of his own and Scheherezade's stories are more useful against him than anyone can anticipate.

Quotes:

Aladdin: [making a wish] How about some sort of flying machine?::Genie of the Lamp: Flying machine? So we could fly around the world? And have drinks? And people could serve us peanuts? You'd better stick with the money.

Sultan Schariar: Look into my eyes. What do you see, Scheherezade?::Scheherezade: Me. Looking at you, my love.

Scheherezade: [narrating] Life often turns upon such small things as a flickering oil lamp.

Scheherezade: [narrating] The trial of Jerome Gribben was the social event of the season. The judge in the case was the venerable Judge Zadic. Judge Zadic was totally incompetent but being a Judge nobody had noticed.

Scheherezade: [narrating] Feed a grub royal jelly and he will turn into an Emperor Butterfly in an instant.

Storyteller: Here again, milady?::Scheherezade: These people sit for hours, just listening.::Scheherezade: It's a miracle.::Storyteller: People need stories, more than bread, itself.::Storyteller: They teach us how to live, and why.

Aladdin: Who are you?::Genie of the Lamp: Who am I? Who am I? I am the Lamp Genie... THE Lamp Genie. Wishes, dreams, power, premature and violent death... ohhh, scratch the last one.

Genie of the Ring: I, I, I! Always about you! What about me? 'Get me out of here', 'Take me home', 'Put me out - I'm on fire'. Haven't you ever heard the magic word 'please'?

Aladdin: Are you like the Genie of the Ring?::Genie of the Lamp: Like the Genie of the Ring?... I, who opposed the will of Heaven? NEVER!::Aladdin: So you're not related then?::Genie of the Lamp: No! Ohhh, I don't know... the tests were inconclusive...

Genie of the Ring: What color was my smoke? If it was blue, that means I am sanguine and melancholy; that means I need more 'me-time'.
