NARRATOR 1

It won't be long now, folks. There's the Grand Vizier, Jafar, the Sultan's right-hand man. Renowned for saying: "Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for me."

NARRATOR 2

And there's Razoul, Jafar's right-hand man, Captain of the Royal Guard despite being dropped on his head as a baby.

NARRATOR 3

And there's Iago, Jafar's right-hand ... parrot. And believe me, folks, this bird's verbal skills are off the chart.

IAGO

Verbal, schmerbal. A parrot never gets any respect.

NARRATOR 1

Jafar! Jafar! Is it true that since you've been Vizier, the local crime rate has plummeted?

JAFAR

No kidding.

NARRATOR 2

Jafar! Jafar! Any predictions about Princess Jasmine's future husband?

JAFAR

No contest.

NARRATOR 3

Jafar! Jafar! Any truth to the rumor you'd like to be Sultan yourself one day?

JAFAR

No comment.
(GONG! The ROYAL FAMILY enters.)

NARRATOR 4

Ah, the main event. The moment we've all be waiting for. There's the Sultan: ruler of all he surveys ... and anything else that happens to be lying around.

NARRATOR 5

And next to him, for a very special, very limited engagement, the beautiful Princess Jasmine!

NARRATOR 4

And now, it appears the Sultan is about to address the crowd.

SULTAN

People of Agrabah, my loyal subjects! Today is a great day in our history!

ALL

Yay!
