Expedition to find magic lamp, underway! Have my jet plane ready for take off in half an hour! We can beat McDuck to that magic lamp.
He's going by camel.
Uh, but how are we gonna find it, Mr.
Glomgold? We don't have the map.
Oh, but we do, boys.
We do! The vault of Aladdin is somewhere on that mountain.
Do you think there really is a magic lamp? With a magic genie? That will give you three wishes? Wish I knew.
McDuck won't find the plane on this side of the mountain.
Once I get my hands on that lamp, That's probably why he hid it on a mountain in the middle of an unexplored desert! It was wise of him to hide it.
In the wrong hands, the lamp of Aladdin could be very dangerous.
We can't go on! Bah! Then I'll go on alone! You just can't get good lackeys, these days.
The lost vault! Won't budge an inch, but I think I know the combination.
We must be on the wrong side of the mountain, boys.
We'll rest a while, then start down the other side.
Yeow! Brace yourselves! Yakmeduty! The vault of Aladdin! Are you all right, Uncle Scrooge? Aye, boys, I'm fine! It's the vault we've been looking for! Here it is, the golden lamp.
It really does exist! Hello, who is there? Glomgold! McDuck! The lamp! - Oh, no, you don't! - Oh, yes, I do! Hey, let go! - It's mine! - Mine! - Mine! - Mine! - Mine! - Mi Aah! - Let go! - You let go! - You! - You! - You! - You! Yipes! Oh, my, what a relief! I feel like I've been cooped up in that lamp for centuries! Ooh, I knew Aladdin would do something like this! Oh, well.
Which of you is my new master? - Me! - I am! You lying rascal, the lamp is mine! - I found it first.
- You did not! - Did too! - Did not! - Did too! - That's no way for my master to act.
Which ever one of you he is.
Which of you rubbed the lamp first? Rubbed? Ooh, yes, yes.
I guess we both rubbed it at the same time.
- Did not! - Don't start that again.
A genie is forbidden to serve two masters.
We must find a way to settle this.
Now, let me see Last one down is a rotten egg! I win! Huh? Ouch! Ugh! That's it! Ugh! When will I learn not to do that! - Quackaroonie! - The magic genie! Now, here's what we're going to do.
You two will have a race! Whoever wins becomes the master of the lamp! A race? From where to where? From this very spot back to where you live! - Yes, that's it! The first one home.
- Now, wait just a minute, Genie! My house is on the other side of Duckburg! I have farther to go! - It's the same distance! - Is not! - Is too! - Is not! All right, all right! Is there one location you can agree on as a finish? No! - Well, at least you agree on that.
- I know! How about the Duckburg Ice Cream Parlor? Sure! Uncle Scrooge and Mr.
Glomgold see each other there all the time! By accident, of course.
So be it! I will go to this "Duckburg You Scream Parlor" to officially judge the finish! Unfortunately, it means more lamp cramps.
Wait! You can stay at my place.
Hot meals, clean sheets, swimming pool, until the race is over.
Trying to butter him up, eh, McDuck? My nephews and my staff will take good care of you.
We will? It would be nice to have someone serve me for a change.
All right.
It's agreed.
The boys! Where did they? Glomgold! It'll be such a relief when the boys are safe at home.
- Eek! - I say! Hi, Mrs.
Beakley! Guess who's coming to dinner? I'd like you to meet two of my associates, McDuck! Oh, I see you've already met! How do you do? Heh-heh! Still a cheater, eh, Glomgold? I look at it this way: Why not? Excellent meal, Mrs.
Beakley.
Thank you.
Not hungry, children? - We're worried about Uncle Scrooge.
- I understand.
Until this silly race is over, none of us will feel like doing anything.
That was delicious! Now, exactly what is a "swimming pool"? I'll hand it to Glomgold.
Not only is he going to get the three wishes, he'll get all the gold as well.
- What gold? - Why, that vault is full of it! Just like him to keep it all for himself.
Come on! They trust Glomgold about as much as I do! Ah! Thanks for the loan of the rope, Glomgold! This ought to make his path a little rocky! How did that feel, Mc Uh-oh! Yeow! Glomgold! - Are you all right? - My airplane! It's wrecked! So, that's how you got here.
At least I'm back where I belong! In the lead! Ugh! What a rotten guy.
Wee! This is more refreshing than the Fountains of Fatima or the Great Waterfalls of Saladin! I bet Uncle Scrooge could use a dip in the pool, about now.
I could sure use a nice dip in the pool, about now.
Ugh! I hope the boys are all right! If I don't make it, at least they'll be well taken care of.
But if Glomgold gets those three wishes, he won't leave them with a dime! I've got to make it! I've never seen anything like it! What's it called again? Television.
But we don't feel like watching TV, Mr.
Genie.
We're worried about Uncle Scrooge.
Oh, he's fine! Look! He's on another channel! - Poor Uncle Scrooge! - He's making me thirsty! More lemonade, Duckworth.
There's a good man.
Time for bed, boys.
You've had a long day.
Not as long as Uncle Scrooge's day! My, those two certainly are serious about this thing! Give up, Glomgold! You can't keep up with me! - I'm younger than you are! - You are not! - I am, too! - Are not! - Am, too! - Are not! Am, too! - That will be all, Duckworth.
- Very good, sir.
But not very nice.
Ah, this is the life! I almost feel like a master, myself! Now, watch him and you'll see what I mean, children.
But no matter who wins the race, I'm the one who loses! I'll be a servant, again.
But! No one can win a race that never ends! I'll send them back in time! They won't even have a home to race home to! Why, that Sands of the desert, fly with the wind, back to the days of sim-salla-bim! This way! Huh? Desert bandits! - We're doomed! - Nonsense, it's just a mirage.
Maybe not! Do not deny you are agents sent by the Emir! He would do anything to rescue his greatest treasure - the star of the heavens, the flower of the desert, the end of the road, the beautiful Schwebazade.
Teller of a thousand and one tales of the desert.
What do you have to say for yourselves? Wa-water! Feed these spies to the crocodiles! I was hoping for water without crocodiles in it! Lucky the water is too low for them to reach us.
Oh, no! Our crocodiles are especially fond of spies.
- Salaam, good Captain.
- Schwebazade! I thought I might make your duty more bearable with one of my stories.
Oh, we'd be most pleased, fair Schwebazade.
- It'll help pass the time.
- Oh, that's wonderful! Things were beginning to drag on.
In the days before the sultans, back when camel tribes and shepherds roamed the desert sands, a beautiful princess was loved by a lowly stable boy, who stood in great disfavor with her father, a great and powerful king.
But her love was strong, and her will, undeniable! So she left the palace that very night and made her way across the desert, where she sold her camel and bought a new hat.
Hurry! They're asleep.
Huh? Oh, yes, I can't imagine why.
Must not escape! What will we do? - Let's jump him! - With his magic powers? We'll have to trick him! Precisely what I had in mind.
This way! Oh, desert blossoms! The great Sultan is here for his daily harem inspection.
Well! How did two camel humps like you, become part of the finest harem in the land? Two-for-one sale? A story, great Sultan? Schwebazade, I've been looking for you! - Yes, a story! - A story! There was once a very young, but very powerful sultan in the land of the great desert.
Every night the little sultan closed his eyes, fell asleep and dreamed of the day when he would be a big little sultan.
Works every time! - Wake up, brave ones! - Huh? Oh! You do have a way with words, Schwebazade.
This way.
- Have a nice ride, fair ladies! - Oh, we will! It's the spies! Sound the alarm! Ow! Ouch! Glomgold, you fool! Get back here! Ignore the stupid one! Give up! There's no escape! Schwebazade, it is I.
The Emir! Yikes! It's the Emir's Camel Troops! Flee! Flee! This is better than a cartoon! Oh, Mr.
Genie! Uh, yes, dearie? I thought you might like some milk and cookies while you watch the late show.
Cookies? Did you really live in that itsy-bitsy lamp? For thousand of years.
Oh, you couldn't even fit in there.
- I certainly can.
- Uh-uh, you're fibbing me.
Oh, yeah? Watch this! Aha! Hey! Let me out of here! Let me out of here! What do you think you're doing? We're not letting you out till you bring Uncle Scrooge back to our time! Yes, sweet Schwebazade, it is back to the Golden city of Somnambula, where the people await your glorious tales, wide-eyed! Farewell, brave one.
Wow, that was some kiss! Yeow! I say, old boy, that was quite a trick! For a moment, I thought you were an exceptionally ridiculous mirage.
You aren't, are you? Quick! Get me to the nearest airport! Watch your step, sir.
Get get me to the lamp! Easy, Uncle Scrooge.
There's something you oughta know.
- What's that? - That's what! I've been waiting for you, McDuck! I didn't want you to miss this! So, Master, what is your first wish? I wish Scrooge McDuck were marooned on a desert island! Your wish is my command! Oh, I wish I could see the expression on Scrooge's face! Your second wish is my command! No, wait, I Oh, no! Alone on a desert island with Scrooge McDuck.
What could be worse? I wish we'd never found this blasted lamp! Yeow! Brace yourselves! Yakmeduty! The vault of Aladdin! Why, it's empty! You all right Uncle Scrooge? Aye, boys, I'm fine.
Hello, who's there? Glomgold! McDuck! The lamp! - Oh, no, you don't.
- Oh, yes, I do.
Stop, Glomgold.
Something tells me I'm very angry with you! Stop! Last one down is a rotten egg! The roof is caving in! Hello, anybody out there? Anybody out there?
