Before returning to the palace, Sabhmad warns Alibaba that in five days, Abhmad will marry one of the Kou Empire's princesses and in the occasion, his decision to turn the people of Balbadd into slaves will be announced. Some time later while Aladdin still shows no signs of waking up, Alibaba is informed by Sinbad that in order to stop Abhmad's plans and prevent the country to be taken over by the Kou Empire, he must assume the throne of Balbadd. As Alibaba wanders the streets thinking about it, he is approached by Cassim, who is in hing among what remains of the Fog Troupe. Cassim reveals to Alibaba that he already knows about Abhmad's slavery plan and helped by the weapons dealer who supplies their magic tools, he intend to start a rebellion in two days. Alibaba refuses to cooperate with him, and affirms that he will look for a solution which does not involve the death of anyone. After Alibaba is driven away by Cassim, he turns to Sinbad and asks him to teach him how to properly use his djinn. Some time later, Morgiana tries to find Alibaba with no success and realizes that he had left to confront his brother alone. Meanwhile at the palace gates, Alibaba stands before the guards, asking them to let him in.
